ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT. On December 23, 2004, netGuru, Inc. (the "Company") issued securities to Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. ("Laurus") in a private placement transaction. Laurus is an existing secured creditor of the Company and also beneficially owns more than 5% of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock, disregarding the conversion limitations described in Item 2.03. Information regarding the transaction is incorporated into this Item 1.01 from Items 2.03, 3.02 and 9.01 of this report. ITEM 2.03. CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT. On December 23, 2004, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement ("Agreement") with Laurus. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company sold to Laurus a convertible note ("Convertible Note") in the original principal amount of $1,000,000 that is scheduled to mature on December 23, 2007 ("Maturity Date"). In connection with the purchase of the Convertible Note, the Company paid Laurus Capital Management, LLC, manager of Laurus a $5,000 fee and reimbursed Laurus for $5,000 of expenses in connection with the offering. The net proceeds from the sale of the Convertible Note will be used for working capital. In connection with the Convertible Note, the Company also issued to Laurus a five-year warrant ("Warrant") to purchase 130,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $1.56 per share. The Warrant contains a "cashless exercise" feature such that if the market price of the Company's common stock exceeds the per share exercise price, Laurus may, at its option, exchange the right to purchase all or part of the maximum shares underlying the Warrant for that number of shares equal in value to the amount by which the closing price of a share of the Company's common stock on the business day immediately preceding the exercise date exceeds the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares to be purchased at that exercise price. The Convertible Note bears an annual interest rate of the greater of prime rate plus 1% or 5% and requires monthly interest payments in arrears on the first business day of each month beginning February 1, 2005 through the Maturity Date. The interest rate may be adjusted downward following effective registration of the shares underlying the Convertible Note with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") if certain increases occur in the closing price of the Company's common stock. The Convertible Note requires monthly principal payments of $30,000 beginning July 1, 2005 through the Maturity Date. The remaining balance of principal including any accrued and unpaid interest is due on the Maturity Date. The Convertible Note may be repaid, in cash or through the conversion of a portion of the Convertible Note reflecting the scheduled principal payment into shares of the Company's common stock. Payment of the monthly principal amount by conversion into shares must be made at the fixed conversion price of $1.29 per share (subject to anti-dilution adjustments in connection with mergers, acquisitions, stock splits, dividends and the like, and in connection with future issuances of the Company's common stock at prices per share below the then-applicable conversion price) if the following conversion criteria are met: (1) the shares are registered with the SEC for public resale, (2) the average closing price of the common stock for the 5 trading days preceding a repayment date is at least 110% of the fixed conversion price, and (3) the amount of such conversion does not exceed 25% of the aggregate dollar trading volume of the Common Stock for the 30-day trading period immediately preceding the applicable repayment date. Any amount of the monthly principal amount that cannot be converted into Company's common stock due to failure to meet the conversion criteria must be paid at a rate of 102% of the monthly principal amount. 2 Laurus may convert at the fixed conversion price amounts due under the Convertible Note if the underlying shares are registered for resale or an exemption from registration is available and no event of default under the Convertible Note remains uncured or remains unwaived by Laurus. In addition, Laurus is subject to a contractual 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation that prohibits Laurus from converting the Convertible Note and the Warrant if and to the extent that the conversion or exercise would result in Laurus, together with its affiliates, beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Company's outstanding common stock. However, this 4.99% limitation automatically becomes void upon an event of default under the Convertible Note, and can be waived by Laurus upon 75 days' advance notice to the Company, provided that Laurus may not beneficially own more than 19.99% of the Company's outstanding common stock. In addition, this 4.99% limitation does not prevent Laurus from converting the Convertible Note into or exercising the Warrant for shares of common stock and then reselling those shares in stages over time where Laurus and its affiliates do not, at any given time, beneficially own shares in excess of the 4.99% limitation. Further, a contractual limitation that prohibits Laurus from converting the Convertible Note or exercising the Warrant if, and to the extent, the conversion or exercise would result in Laurus and its affiliates beneficially owning more than 3,767,730 shares of the Company's common stock, will be removed if and when the Company obtains stockholder approval at Laurus' request. The Company may also prepay the amount of the Convertible Note in cash by paying 104% of the principal balance together with any accrued but unpaid interest. In the event of a default and continuation of a default, Laurus may accelerate the payment of the principal balance requiring the Company to pay 115% of the entire principal balance outstanding on that date. In the event of a default and continuation of default, the Company is also required to pay an additional interest at the rate of 5% per annum on all unpaid principal balance until the default is cured or waived. Events of default that would give rise to automatic acceleration of payment of the principal balance and an increase in annual interest rate on unpaid principal balance include: o A failure to pay principal, interest or fees; o Breach of covenant, representations and warranties; o A receiver or trustee for the Company is appointed; o Any judgment against the Company or any of its assets in excess of $250,0000 that remains unvacated, umbonded or unstayed for ninety days; o Bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or reorganization proceedings against the Company that is not resolved within 30 days; o Trading stop in Company's common stock that is in effect for more than five days; o Failure to deliver Company's stock or replacement note; o Occurrence of default or continuation of default in related or other agreements with Laurus; and o Change in control of ownership of the Company. 3 As security for payment of the Convertible Note, the Company granted to Laurus a continuing general security interest in the Company's assets. The securities issued in the private placement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and until so registered the securities may not be re-offered or re-sold in the United States absent registration or availability of an applicable exemption from registration. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC to register the public resale by Laurus of the common stock to be issued upon conversion of the Convertible Note and exercise of the Warrant. The registration obligations require, among other things, that the Company file an initial registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than the 30th day following the closing date and cause the registration statement to be declared effective no later than the 150th day following the closing date. If the Company is unable to meet these obligations or is unable to maintain the effectiveness of the registration in accordance with the requirements of the Registration Rights Agreement, then the Company will be required to pay to Laurus monthly liquidated damages equal to 1% of the original principal amount of the Convertible Note. With the exception of previously disclosed issuances or stock and stock options granted to employees and directors of the Company, the Company is prohibited from issuing any securities, Convertible or freestanding, prior to the full repayment or conversion of the Convertible Note together with all related accrued and unpaid interest and fees. The foregoing description of the private placement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Securities Purchase Agreement, Warrant, Convertible Note, Security Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement that are attached as exhibits to this report. Item 3.02. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES. As described elsewhere in this report, on December 23, 2004, netGuru issued securities to Laurus. Information regarding the issuances is incorporated into this Item 3.02 from Items 1.01, 2.03 and 9.01 of this report. On December 8, 2004, the Company converted $104,000 of its outstanding indebtedness under the Convertible Note issued December 4, 2003 to Laurus into 80,000 shares of its common stock. The 80,000 shares of common stock were issued to Laurus at the fixed conversion price of $1.30 per share. On December 28, 2004, the Company converted $195,000 of outstanding indebtedness under the Convertible Notes issued December 12, 2002 and December 4, 2003 to Laurus into 150,000 shares of its common stock. The 150,000 shares of common stock were issued to Laurus at the fixed conversion price of $1.30 per share. On December 28, 2004, the Company also issued 50,000 shares of its common stock to one accredited investor upon exercise of a previously issued warrant for total proceeds of $50,000. Exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 for the transactions described above is claimed under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, among others, on the basis that such transactions did not involve any public offering and the purchasers were accredited and had access to the kind of information registration would provide. Appropriate investment representations were obtained, and the securities were issued with restricted securities legends. 4 ITEM 9.01. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.

This power being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so long as any Obligations remains unpaid. 8. No delay or failure on Laurus' part in exercising any right, privilege or option hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such or of any other right, privilege, remedy or option, and no waiver whatever shall be valid unless in writing, signed by Laurus and then only to the extent therein set forth, and no waiver by Laurus of any default shall operate as a waiver of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion. Laurus' books and records containing entries with respect to the Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, shall be binding upon the Assignor for the purpose of establishing the items therein set forth and shall constitute prima facie proof thereof.

The Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for such shares in accordance herewith. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within three (3) business days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such Holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise. 2.2 EXERCISE. Payment may be made either (i) in cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate Exercise Price, (ii) by delivery of the Warrant, or shares of Common Stock and/or Common Stock receivable upon exercise of the Warrant in accordance with the formula set forth below in this Section 2.2, or (iii) by a combination of any of the foregoing methods, for the number of Common Shares specified in such Exercise Notice (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being exercised) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Exercise Notice in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula: X=Y (A-B) --------- A Where X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder Y = the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation) A = the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company's Common Stock (at the date of such calculation) B = Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation) 3. EFFECT OF REORGANIZATION, ETC.; ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. 3 3.1 REORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC. In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person, or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4. 3.2 DISSOLUTION. In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, concurrently with any distributions made to holders of its Common Stock, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holder of the Warrant pursuant to Section 3.1, or, if the Holder shall so instruct the Company, to a bank or trust company specified by the Holder and having its principal office in New York, NY as trustee for the Holder of the Warrant (the "Trustee"). 3.3 CONTINUATION OF TERMS.

In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transactions described in this Section 3, then the Company's securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the Holders of the Warrant will be delivered to Holder or the Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2. 4. EXTRAORDINARY EVENTS REGARDING COMMON STOCK. In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Exercise Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Exercise Price then in effect. The Exercise Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be adjusted to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Exercise Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise. 4 5. CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrant, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding, and (c) the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the holder of the Warrant and any Warrant agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof). 6. RESERVATION OF STOCK, ETC., ISSUABLE ON EXERCISE OF WARRANT. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrant, shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant. 7. ASSIGNMENT; EXCHANGE OF WARRANT. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a "Transferor") in whole or in part. On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor's endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the "Transferor Endorsement Form") and together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company demonstrating compliance with applicable securities laws, which shall include, without limitation, the provision of a legal opinion from the Transferor's counsel (at the Company's expense) that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of applicable securities laws, and with payment by the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes) will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each a "Transferee"), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor. 8.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled to convert pursuant to the terms of this Warrant an amount that would be convertible into that number of shares of Common Stock which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise beneficially owned by such Holder including those issuable upon exercise of 5 warrants held by such Holder would exceed 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company at the time of conversion. For the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. The conversion limitation described in this paragraph 10 shall automatically become null and void without any notice to the Company upon the occurrence and during the continuance beyond any applicable grace period of an Event of Default, or upon 75 days prior notice to the Company, except that at no time shall the beneficial ownership exceed 19.99% of the Common Stock.

If at any point in time and from time to time the number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Note, the Purchase Agreement or any Related Agreement, together with the number of shares of Common Stock that would then be issuable by the Company to the Holder in the event of a conversion or exercise pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Note, the Purchase Agreement or any Related Agreement, would exceed the Maximum Common Stock Issuance but for this paragraph, the Company shall promptly call a shareholders meeting to solicit shareholder approval for the issuance of the shares of Common Stock hereunder in excess of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance. 11. WARRANT AGENT. The Company may, by written notice to the each Holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent. 12. TRANSFER ON THE COMPANY'S BOOKS. Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 13. NOTICES, ETC. All notices and other communications from the Company to the Holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first class registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at such address as may have been furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder or, until any such Holder furnishes to the Company an address, then to, and at the address of, the last Holder of this Warrant who has so furnished an address to the Company. 14. MISCELLANEOUS. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action brought concerning the transactions contemplated by this Warrant shall be brought only in the state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in the state of New York; provided, however, that the Holder may choose 6 to waive this provision and bring an action outside the state of New York. The individuals executing this Warrant on behalf of the Company agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive trial by jury. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees and costs. In the event that any provision of this Warrant is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Warrant. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

In case any such action shall be brought against any Indemnified Party and it shall notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Section 5(c) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; if the Indemnified Party retains its own counsel, then the Indemnified Party shall pay all fees, costs and expenses of such counsel, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the 6 interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the event of joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) the Purchaser, or any officer, director or controlling person of the Purchaser, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 5 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 5 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of the Purchaser or such officer, director or controlling person of the Purchaser in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 5; then, and in each such case, the Company and the Purchaser will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that the Purchaser is responsible only for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities offered by the Registration Statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such Registration Statement, provided, however, that, in any such case, (A) the Purchaser will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such securities offered by it pursuant to such Registration Statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. (a) The Common Stock of the Company is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and, except with respect to certain matters which the Company has disclosed to the Purchaser on Schedule 4.21 to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company has timely filed all proxy statements, reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act. The Company has filed (i) its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2004 and (ii) its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2004 (collectively, the "SEC Reports"). Each SEC Report was, at the time of its filing, in substantial compliance with the requirements of its respective form and none of the SEC Reports, nor the financial statements (and the notes thereto) included in the SEC Reports, as of their respective filing dates, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial 7 statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the Commission or other applicable rules and regulations with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or may be condensed) and fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, the results of operations and the cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, as of, and for, the periods presented in each such SEC Report. (b) The Common Stock is listed for trading on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market and satisfies all requirements for the continuation of such listing. The Company has not received any notice that its Common Stock will be delisted from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market (except for prior notices which have been fully remedied) or that the Common Stock does not meet all requirements for the continuation of such listing. (c) Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would cause the offering of the Securities pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent the Company from selling the Common Stock pursuant to Rule 506 under the Securities Act, or any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval provisions, nor will the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries take any action or steps that would cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings. (d) The Warrants, the Note and the shares of Common Stock which the Purchaser may acquire pursuant to the Warrants and the Note are all restricted securities under the Securities Act as of the date of this Agreement. The Company will not issue any stop transfer order or other order impeding the sale and delivery of any of the Registrable Securities at such time as such Registrable Securities are registered for public sale or an exemption from registration is available, except as required by federal or state securities laws. (e) The Company understands the nature of the Registrable Securities issuable upon the conversion of the Note and the exercise of the Warrant and recognizes that the issuance of such Registrable Securities may have a potential dilutive effect. The Company specifically acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Registrable Securities is binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other shareholders of the Company. (f) Except for agreements made in the ordinary course of business, there is no agreement that has not been filed with the Commission as an exhibit to a registration statement or to a form required to be filed by the Company under the Exchange Act, the breach of which could reasonably be expected to have a material and adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries, or would prohibit or otherwise interfere with the ability of the Company to enter into and perform any of its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. 8 (g) The Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the full conversion of the Note and exercise of the Warrants. 7. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) REMEDIES. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder, of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. (b) NO PIGGYBACK ON REGISTRATIONS. Except as and to the extent specified in Schedule 7(b) hereto, neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the Company in any Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not after the date hereof enter into any agreement providing any such right for inclusion of shares in the Registration Statement to any of its security holders. Except as and to the extent specified in Schedule 7(b) hereto, the Company has not previously entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with respect to any of its securities to any Person that have not been fully satisfied.

The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this paragraph. For purposes of this Section 7(d), a "Discontinuation Event" shall mean (i) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a "review" of such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on such Registration Statement (the Company shall provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to each of the Holders); (ii) any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to such Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any 9 of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and/or (v) the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in such Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to such Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of such Registration Statement or Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (e) PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATIONS. If at any time during the Effectiveness Period there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to each Holder written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen days after receipt of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such holder requests to be registered to the extent the Company may do so without violating registration rights of others which exist as of the date of this Agreement, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights and subject to obtaining any required consent of any selling stockholder(s) to such inclusion under such registration statement.

Purchaser agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company and each of the Company's officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons and principal shareholders, at all times against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company which results, arises out of or is based upon: (i) any misrepresentation by Purchaser or breach of any warranty by Purchaser in this Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or any Related Agreement; or (ii) any breach or default in performance by Purchaser of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by Purchaser hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and Purchaser relating hereto. 9. CONVERSION OF CONVERTIBLE NOTE. 9.1 MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. (a) Provided the Purchaser has notified the Company of the Purchaser's intention to sell the Note Shares and the Note Shares are included in an effective registration statement or are otherwise exempt from registration when sold: (i) Upon the conversion of the Note or part thereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action (including the issuance of an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser following a request by the Purchaser) to assure that the Company's transfer agent shall issue shares of the Company's Common Stock in the name of the Purchaser (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by the Purchaser in accordance with Section 9.1(b) hereof and in such denominations to be specified representing the number of Note Shares issuable upon such conversion; and (ii) The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the Company's Common Stock and that after the Effectiveness Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) the Note Shares issued will be freely transferable subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and the provisions of this Agreement, and will not contain a legend restricting the resale or transferability of the Note Shares. (b) Purchaser will give notice of its decision to exercise its right to convert the Note or part thereof by telecopying or otherwise delivering an executed and completed notice of the number of shares to be converted to the Company (the "Notice of Conversion"). The Purchaser will not be required to surrender the Note until the Purchaser receives a credit to the account of the Purchaser's prime broker through the DWAC system (as defined below), representing the Note Shares or until the Note has been fully satisfied. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is telecopied or delivered to the Company in accordance with 19 the provisions hereof shall be deemed a "Conversion Date." Pursuant to the terms of the Notice of Conversion, the Company will issue instructions to the transfer agent accompanied by an opinion of counsel within one (1) business day of the date of the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Conversion and shall cause the transfer agent to transmit the certificates representing the Conversion Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the Purchaser's prime broker with the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system within three (3) business days after receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion (the "Delivery Date"). (c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Note Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof beyond the Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Purchaser. In the event that the Company fails to direct its transfer agent to deliver the Note Shares to the Purchaser via the DWAC system within the time frame set forth in Section 9.1(b) above and the Note Shares are not delivered to the Purchaser by the Delivery Date, as compensation to the Purchaser for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to the Purchaser for late issuance of the Note Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof upon conversion of the Note in the amount equal to the greater of: (i) $500 per business day after the Delivery Date; or (ii) the Purchaser's actual damages from such delayed delivery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not owe the Purchaser any late payments if the delay in the delivery of the Note Shares beyond the Delivery Date is solely out of the control of the Company and the Company is actively trying to cure the cause of the delay. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand and, in the case of actual damages, accompanied by reasonable documentation of the amount of such damages. Such documentation shall show the number of shares of Common Stock the Purchaser is forced to purchase (in an open market transaction) which the Purchaser anticipated receiving upon such conversion, and shall be calculated as the amount by which (A) the Purchaser's total purchase price (including customary brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate principal and/or interest amount of the Note, for which such Conversion Notice was not timely honored. Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum amount permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to a Purchaser and thus refunded to the Company. 10. REGISTRATION RIGHTS. 10.1 REGISTRATION RIGHTS GRANTED. The Company hereby grants registration rights to the Purchaser pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement dated as of even date herewith between the Company and the Purchaser. 20 10.2 OFFERING RESTRICTIONS. Except as previously disclosed in the SEC Reports or in the Exchange Act Filings, or stock or stock options granted to employees or directors of the Company (these exceptions hereinafter referred to as the "Excepted Issuances"), the Company will not issue any securities with a continuously variable/floating conversion feature which are or could be (by conversion or registration) free-trading securities (i.e. common stock subject to a registration statement) prior to the full repayment or conversion of the Note (together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees related thereto (the "Exclusion Period"). 11.

SECURED CONVERTIBLE TERM NOTE ----------------------------- FOR VALUE RECEIVED, NETGURU, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "BORROWER"), hereby promises to pay to LAURUS MASTER FUND, LTD., c/o M&C Corporate Services Limited, P.O. Box 309 GT, Ugland House, South Church Street, George Town, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands, Fax: 345-949-8080 (the "HOLDER") or its registered assigns or successors in interest, on order, the sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), together with any accrued and unpaid interest hereon, on December 23, 2007 (the "MATURITY DATE") if not sooner paid. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof between the Borrower and the Holder (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"). The following terms shall apply to this Note: ARTICLE I INTEREST & AMORTIZATION 1.1(a) INTEREST RATE. Subject to Sections 4.11 and 5.6 hereof, interest payable on this Note shall accrue at a rate per annum (the "Interest Rate") equal to the "prime rate" published in THE WALL STREET JOURNAL from time to time, plus one percent (1.0%). The prime rate shall be increased or decreased as the case may be for each increase or decrease in the prime rate in an amount equal to such increase or decrease in the prime rate; each change to be effective as of the day of the change in such rate. Subject to Section 1.1(b) hereof, the Interest Rate shall not be less than five percent (5.0%). Interest shall be (i) calculated on the basis of a 360 day year, and (ii) payable monthly, in arrears, commencing on February 1, 2005 and on the first business day of each consecutive calendar month thereafter until the Maturity Date (and on the Maturity Date), whether by acceleration or otherwise (each, a "REPAYMENT DATE"). 1.1 (b) INTEREST RATE ADJUSTMENT. The Interest Rate shall be calculated on the last business day of each month hereafter until the Maturity Date (each a "Determination Date") and shall be subject to adjustment as set forth herein. With effect beginning January 1, 2005, if (i) the Borrower shall have registered the shares of the Borrower's common stock underlying each of the conversion of the Note and that certain warrant issued to Holder on a registration statement 1 declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and (ii) the volume weighted average price (the "VWAP") of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the Principal Market (as defined below) for the seven (7) trading days immediately preceding a Determination Date exceeds the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price by at least thirty percent (30.0%), the Interest Rate for the succeeding calendar month shall automatically be reduced by 200 basis points (200 b.p.) (2.0.%) for each incremental twenty five percent (25%) increase in the Market Price of the Common Stock above the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price. If (i) the Borrower shall not have registered the shares of the Borrower's common stock underlying the conversion of the Note and that certain warrant issued to Holder on a registration statement declared effective by the SEC and which remains effective, and (ii) the Market Price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the principal market for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding a Determination Date exceeds the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price by at least twenty five percent (25%), the Interest Rate for the succeeding calendar month shall automatically be decreased by 100 basis points (100 b.p.) (1.0.%) for each incremental twenty five percent (25%) increase in the Market Price of the Common Stock above the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing (and anything to the contrary contained in herein), in no event shall the Interest Rate be less than zero percent (0%). 1.2 MINIMUM MONTHLY PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS. Amortizing payments of the aggregate principal amount outstanding under this Note at any time (the "PRINCIPAL AMOUNT") shall begin on July 1, 2005 and shall recur on the first business day of each succeeding month thereafter until the Maturity Date (each, an "AMORTIZATION DATE"). Subject to Article 3 below, beginning on the first Amortization Date, the Borrower shall make monthly payments to the Holder on each Repayment Date, each in the amount of $30,000, together with any accrued and unpaid interest to date on such portion of the Principal Amount plus any and all other amounts which are then owing under this Note, the Purchase Agreement or any other Related Agreement but have not been paid (collectively, the "MONTHLY AMOUNT"). Any Principal Amount that remains outstanding on the Maturity Date shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. ARTICLE II CONVERSION REPAYMENT 2.1 (a) PAYMENT OF MONTHLY AMOUNT IN CASH OR COMMON STOCK. If the Monthly Amount (or a portion thereof of such Monthly Amount if such portion of the Monthly Amount would have been converted into shares of Common Stock but for Section 3.2) is required to be paid in cash pursuant to Section 2.1(b), then the Borrower shall pay the Holder an amount equal to the Monthly Amount due and owing to the Holder on the Repayment Date in cash. If the Monthly Amount (or a portion of such Monthly Amount if not all of the Monthly Amount may be converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.2) is required to be paid in shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1(b), the number of such shares to be issued by the Borrower to the Holder on such Repayment Date (in respect of such portion of the Monthly Amount converted into in shares of Common Stock 2 pursuant to Section 2.1(b)), shall be the number determined by dividing (x) the portion of the Monthly Amount converted into shares of Common Stock, by (y) the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price. For purposes hereof, the initial "FIXED CONVERSION PRICE" means $1.29 [which has been determined on the date of this Note as an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 100% of the average closing price for the three (3) trading days immediately prior to the date of this Note and (ii) 100% of the average closing price for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the date of this Note]. (b) MONTHLY AMOUNT CONVERSION GUIDELINES. Subject to Sections 2.1(a), 2.2, and 3.2 hereof, the Holder shall convert into shares of Common Stock all or a portion of the Monthly Amount due on each Repayment Date according to the following guidelines (the "CONVERSION CRITERIA"): (i) the average closing price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the Principal Market for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding such Repayment Date shall be greater than or equal to 110% of the Fixed Conversion Price and (ii) the amount of such conversion does not exceed twenty five percent (25%) of the aggregate dollar trading volume of the Common Stock for the thirty (30) day trading period immediately preceding the applicable Repayment Date. If the Conversion Criteria are not met, the Holder shall convert only such part of the Monthly Amount that meets the Conversion Criteria. Any part of the Monthly Amount due on a Repayment Date that the Holder has not been able to convert into shares of Common Stock due to failure to meet the Conversion Criteria, shall be paid by the Borrower in cash at the rate of 102% of the Monthly Amount otherwise due on such Repayment Date, within three (3) business days of the applicable Repayment Date. 2.2 NO EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of the Borrower's obligations to the Holder may be converted into Common Stock unless (i) either (x) an effective current Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with satisfaction of such obligations exists or (y) an exemption from registration of the Common Stock is available to pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act and (ii) no Event of Default hereunder exists and is continuing, unless such Event of Default is cured within any applicable cure period or is otherwise waived in writing by the Holder in whole or in part at the Holder's option. 2.3 OPTIONAL REDEMPTION IN CASH. The Borrower will have the option of prepaying this Note ("OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") by paying to the Holder a sum of money equal to one hundred four percent (104%) of the principal amount of this Note together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any and all other sums due, accrued or payable to the Holder arising under this Note, the Purchase Agreement, or any Related Agreement (the "REDEMPTION AMOUNT") outstanding on the Redemption Payment Date (as defined below). The Borrower shall deliver to the Holder a written notice of redemption specifying the date for such Optional Redemption (the "REDEMPTION PAYMENT DATE"), which date shall be seven (7) business days after the date of the Notice of Redemption (the "REDEMPTION PERIOD"). A Notice of Redemption shall not be effective with respect to any portion of this Note for which the Holder has a pending election to convert pursuant to Section 3.1, or for conversions initiated or made by the Holder pursuant to Section 3.1 during the Redemption Period. The Redemption Amount shall be determined as if such Holder's conversion elections had been completed immediately prior to the date of the Notice of Redemption. On the Redemption Payment Date, the Redemption Amount must be paid in good funds to the Holder. In the event the Borrower fails to pay the Redemption Amount on the Redemption Payment Date as set forth herein, then such Redemption Notice will be null and void. 3 ARTICLE III CONVERSION RIGHTS 3.1. HOLDER'S CONVERSION RIGHTS. The Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to convert all or any portion of the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with interest and fees due hereon, into shares of Common Stock subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Article III. The Holder may exercise such right by delivery to the Borrower of a written notice of conversion not less than one (1) day prior to the date upon which such conversion shall occur. The shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such conversion are herein referred to as the "CONVERSION SHARES." 3.2 Conversion Limitation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be entitled to convert pursuant to the terms of the Note an amount that would be convertible into that number of shares of Common Stock which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise beneficially owned by such Holder including those issuable upon exercise of warrants held by such Holder would exceed 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Borrower at the time of conversion. For the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. The conversion limitation described in this Section 3.2 shall automatically become null and void without any notice to Borrower upon the occurrence and during the continuance beyond any applicable grace period of an Event of Default, or upon 75 days prior notice to the Borrower, except that at no time shall the beneficial ownership exceed 19.99% of the Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable by the Borrower and acquirable by the Holder at a price below $1.25 per share pursuant to the terms of this Note, the Purchase Agreement or any Related Agreement, shall not exceed an aggregate of 3,767,730 shares of the Borrower's Common Stock (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, or other similar recapitalizations affecting the Common Stock) (the "MAXIMUM COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE"), unless the issuance of shares hereunder in excess of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance shall first be approved by the Borrower's shareholders. If at any point in time and from time to time the number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the terms of this Note, the Purchase Agreement or any Related Agreement, together with the number of shares of Common Stock that would then be issuable by the Borrower to the Holder in the event of a conversion or exercise pursuant to the terms of this Note, the Purchase Agreement or any Related Agreement, would exceed the Maximum Common Stock Issuance but for this Section 3.2, the Borrower shall promptly call a shareholders meeting to solicit shareholder approval for the issuance of the shares of Common Stock hereunder in excess of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance. 4 3.3 MECHANICS OF HOLDER'S CONVERSION. (a) In the event that the Holder elects to convert this Note into Common Stock, the Holder shall give notice of such election by delivering an executed and completed notice of conversion ("NOTICE OF CONVERSION") to the Borrower and such Notice of Conversion shall provide a breakdown in reasonable detail of the Principal Amount, accrued interest and fees being converted. On each Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined) and in accordance with its Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall make the appropriate reduction to the Principal Amount, accrued interest and fees as entered in its records and shall provide written notice thereof to the Borrower within two (2) business days after the Conversion Date. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is delivered or telecopied to the Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion Date (the "CONVERSION DATE"). A form of Notice of Conversion to be employed by the Holder is annexed hereto as Exhibit A. (b) Pursuant to the terms of the Notice of Conversion, the Borrower will issue instructions to the transfer agent accompanied by an opinion of counsel within one (1) business day of the date of the delivery to Borrower of the Notice of Conversion and shall cause the transfer agent to transmit the certificates representing the Conversion Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder's designated broker with the Depository Trust Corporation ("DTC") through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system within three (3) business days after receipt by the Borrower of the Notice of Conversion (the "DELIVERY DATE"). In the case of the exercise of the conversion rights set forth herein the conversion privilege shall be deemed to have been exercised and the Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have been issued upon the date of receipt by the Borrower of the Notice of Conversion. The Holder shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Common Stock, unless the Holder provides the Borrower written instructions to the contrary. 3.4 CONVERSION MECHANICS. (a) The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the principal and interest and fees to be converted, if any, by the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price. In the event of any conversions of outstanding principal amount under this Note in part pursuant to this Article III, such conversions shall be deemed to constitute conversions of outstanding principal amount applying to Monthly Amounts for the remaining Repayment Dates in chronological order. (b) The Fixed Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion is subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows: 5 A. STOCK SPLITS, COMBINATIONS AND DIVIDENDS. If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock or any preferred stock issued by the Borrower in shares of Common Stock, the Fixed Conversion Price or the Conversion Price, as the case may be, shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event. B. During the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents, and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note. C. SHARE ISSUANCES. Subject to the provisions of this Section, if the Borrower at any time shall issue any shares of Common Stock prior to the conversion of the entire principal amount of the Note (otherwise than as: (i) provided in Sections 3.4(b)A, 3.4(b)B or 3.4(b)D or this subparagraph C; (ii) pursuant to warrants or options that may be granted in the future under any option plan of the Borrower, or any employment agreement, joint venture, credit, leasing or other financing agreement or any joint venture or other strategic arrangement, in each case now or hereinafter entered into by the Borrower; (iii) pursuant to any agreement entered into by the Company or any of its subsidiaries for the acquisition of another business (whether by stock purchase or asset purchase, merger or otherwise; or (iv) for services rendered by consultants; ((i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, are hereinafter referred to as the "EXCLUDED ISSUANCES")) for a consideration less than the Fixed Conversion Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issue, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be reduced as follows: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue shall be multiplied by the Fixed Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issue and the product shall be added to the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Borrower upon such issue of additional shares of Common Stock; and (ii) the sum so obtained shall be divided by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue. The resulting quotient shall be the adjusted Fixed Conversion Price. Except for the Excluded Issuances for purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security of the Borrower carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights. D. RECLASSIFICATION, ETC. If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes, this Note, as to the unpaid Principal Amount and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification or other change. 6 3.5 ISSUANCE OF NEW NOTE. Upon any partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance of this Note and interest which shall not have been converted or paid. Subject to the provisions of Article IV, the Borrower will pay no costs, fees or any other consideration to the Holder for the production and issuance of a new Note. ARTICLE IV EVENTS OF DEFAULT Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default beyond any applicable grace period, the Holder may make all sums of principal, interest and other fees then remaining unpaid hereon and all other amounts payable hereunder immediately due and payable. In the event of such an acceleration, the amount due and owing to the Holder shall be 115% of the outstanding principal amount of the Note (plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees, if any) (the "DEFAULT PAYMENT"). The Default Payment shall be applied first to any fees due and payable to Holder pursuant to the Note or the Related Agreements, then to accrued and unpaid interest due on the Note and then to outstanding principal balance of the Note. The Default Payment shall be due and payable on the fifth (5th) business day after the date written notice is sent from the Holder to the Borrower of an Event of Default as defined in Article IV ("DEFAULT PAYMENT DATE"). The period between the date of the written notice from the Holder to the Borrower of an Event of Default and the Default Payment Date shall be the "DEFAULT NOTICE PERIOD." If during the Default Notice Period, the Borrower cures the Event of Default, the Event of Default will no longer exist and any rights the Holder had pertaining to the Event of Default will no longer exist. If the Event of Default is not cured during the Default Notice Period, all amounts payable hereunder shall be due and payable on the Default Payment Date, all without further demand, presentment or notice, or grace period, all of which hereby are expressly waived.
