INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation

On April 19, 2006, the Registrant entered into a financing transaction in which the Registrant issued a $1,000,000 convertible, secured note (the “Note”) to EMTUCK, LLC (“EMTUCK”), in which the managing member is a management company wholly owned and controlled by the Registrant’s CEO. The Note is subject to increase up to $1,500,000 if EMTUCK makes available such increased amount. The Note bears interest of 10.75% per annum, with interest payments due quarterly, beginning July 19, 2006. The Note’s principal becomes due on January 19, 2007 (the “Maturity Date”). The Registrant can draw on the note, in increments of up to $200,000, and interest is calculated on the outstanding principal drawn. The Note is secured by a first lien and security interest in all of the Registrant’s accounts receivable and inventory now or hereafter acquired, and a second lien and security interest in all other collateral, subordinate to the existing lien and security interest in favor of Pali Capital Corporation as representative of the holders of promissory notes of the Registrant in the aggregated principal amount of $1,464,806 due October 26, 2006, and $125,000 due February 24, 2007 (the “Pali Notes”). In the event of default (as defined in the note), EMTUCK may upon written notice to the Registrant elect to declare the entire principal amount of the Note then outstanding together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon due and payable. Upon receipt of such notice, the Registrant shall have seven (7) business days to cure the event of default and if uncured on the eighth (8) business day, all principal and accrued interest shall become immediately due and payable.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities

The members of EMTUCK will promptly be issued 2,083,334 warrants in conjunction with the Note, with an exercise price of $0.24 per share. 1,458,334 warrants will vest immediately, with the remaining 625,000 warrants vesting equally over nine (9) months. The warrants will have a cashless exercise provision and will have a 5 year term. If after the date of issuance of the warrants, the Registrant files a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, or amends an existing registration statement, in either case, the Registrant will use its best efforts to include the shares issuable on exercise of the warrants in such registration statement or amended registration statement.

 

Item 5.02 Election of Directors and Appointment of Principal Officers

On April 18, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Registrant elected Rob Murray as a Director of the Registrant. Presently, the Registrant’s entire Board of Directors serves as the Audit Committee, thus Mr. Murray will serve on the Audit Committee. Along with Mr. Murray’s election to the Board of Directors, the Registrant named Mr. Murray the Registrant’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer.

Mr. Murray was the President, Director and Co-Owner of GoWireless, Inc. for 7 years, where he helped grow the company from 7 stores and $2 million in annual revenue to 110 stores and $38 million in annual revenues. Prior to GoWireless, Mr. Murray was Vice President and General Manager of Paging Network, Inc. Mr. Murray was with Paging Network, Inc for 7 years, where he was promoted 4 times to larger market responsibilities, beginning from $9 million to $70 million and managed 325 employees in 6 branch offices by the time he left. Prior to Paging Network, Inc., Mr. Murray served in various capacities as a Marketing Officer, Senior Account Manager and a Senior Accountant. Mr. Murray earned a Bachelors of Science in Business Administration and Accounting from the University of Southern California and is a former CPA in California.

Also on April 18, 2006, Eric Naroian tendered his resignation as a Director of the Registrant to the Registrant’s Board of Directors.

  Re: Interim Debt Financing

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In accordance with our discussions with Power Efficiency Corporation (the “Company”), EMTUCK, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Lender”), hereby agrees to make term loans (the “Loans”) to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 (the “Base Commitment”), subject to increase up to $1,500,000 if the Lender makes available such increased amount of up to $500,000 (the “Additional Commitment,” and the Base Commitment and the Additional Commitment being herein collectively called the “Total Commitment”) available to the Company on or before May 31, 2006, on the following terms and conditions and any additional conditions set forth in the Notes (as hereinafter defined):

1. Terms of Loans. The Company shall borrow the aggregate principal amount of the Base Commitment in multiple borrowings, in each case not to exceed $200,000 (each such borrowing herein called a “Base Loan”), and, if made available, may borrow the amount of the Additional Commitment, up to the amount of the Total Commitment, each such borrowing being herein called an “Additional Loan,” and the Base Loans and the Additional Loans being herein sometimes collectively called the “Loans”), in the case of the first Base Loan, on a closing date on or as soon as practicable after execution of this Agreement, and in the case of subsequent Loans, on five (5) days prior written notice to the Lender; each Loan shall be due and payable on the date which is nine (9) months from the date the first Base Loan is advanced, shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof, payable quarterly as set forth in the Note, at a fixed rate equal to the prime rate of Bank of America as published in The Wall Street Journal as in effect on the date of the first Base Loan plus three percent (3%), shall be convertible into equity securities of the Company as provided in paragraph 2 of this Agreement, and shall have such other terms as are set forth herein or in the Notes. The Base Loans and the Additional Loans shall each be evidenced by a single promissory note of the Company dated the date of the first Base Loan or Additional Loan, as applicable, in the form of Exhibit A attached (a “Note,” and collectively, the “Notes”) and shall be secured as provided in the Notes.

2. Conversion Right. In the event the Company, while any amount of the Loans are outstanding, offers any equity securities to third parties (excluding issuances to officers, directors, employees, consultants or advisors pursuant to stock option or restricted stock purchase plans approved by the Board of Directors of the Company which are issued at fair market value at the time of issuance, and also excluding issuances of Common Stock on the exercise of currently outstanding warrants), the Company will use its best efforts to afford Lender the right, at the Lender’s sole option, to participate in such equity financing by converting the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding into equity issuable in such financing on the same terms as such equity is offered to such third parties.

3. Warrants. On the applicable Closing Dates of the first Base Loan and the first Additional Loan, the Company will issue to the Lender (or at the Lender’s designation in its discretion to the individual members of the Lender or their affiliates) Warrants allowing the Lender to purchase, subject to vesting of the exercisability of the Warrants in accordance with Schedule X attached to this Agreement, at any time prior to the fifth anniversary following such Closing Date, and at the Lender’s sole and absolute discretion, a number of shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to a sum obtained by dividing 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Loans by the Warrant Exercise Price (as defined below), at a price (the “Warrant Exercise Price”) equal to the 5-day average of the closing bid price of shares of Common Stock of the Company on the OTC Bulletin Board prior to the applicable Closing Date; provided that the Warrant Exercise Price shall not be less than twenty cents ($0.20) per share. The


Warrants shall provide for “cashless exercise” by the Lender by use of shares issuable on exercise. If after the date of the issuance of the Warrants the Company files a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, or amends an existing registration statement, in either case the Company will use its best efforts to include the shares issuable on exercise of the Warrants in such registration statement or amended registration statement.

4. Consent of Pali Capital Noteholders. As a condition precedent to the Loans, the Company shall have received the requisite consent of the holders of those certain promissory notes bearing interest at 15% per annum of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $1,464,806 due October 26, 2006, and $125,000 due February 24, 2007 (the “Pali Notes”) to the provision of security for the Loans in the form of a second lien subordinate to the lien securing the Pali Notes as provided in the Notes.

5. Securities Law Compliance. The Lender confirms that it is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and that in order to comply with the requirements of Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities or blue sky laws the Lender represents and warrants that it is acquiring the Notes and the Warrants for investment purposes only and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof.

6. Company Action. This transaction shall have been approved by the requisite vote of members of the Board of Directors of the Company who are independent of any affiliate of the Lender.

2. Grant of Security Interest; Perfection.

(a) Grant of Security Interest. As collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due of all the Obligations and in order to induce the Lender to make the Loans in accordance with the terms of the Base Agreement and the Notes, the Borrower hereby pledges and grants to the Lender a security interest in all the Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under the following properties and assets, wherever located, and whether now held or in the future acquired by the Borrower and whether now existing or in the future coming into existence (all of which being hereinafter collectively called the “Collateral”):

(i) a first lien and security interest in all accounts receivable and inventory now or hereafter acquired; and

(ii) a second lien and security interest in all other collateral, subordinate to the existing lien and security interest in favor of Pali Capital Corporation as representative of the holders of promissory notes of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $[1,464,806] due October 26, [2006], and $125,000 due February 24, 2007 (the “Pali Notes”); and

(iii) to the extent not otherwise included, all proceeds and products in whatever form of all or any part of the other Collateral, including all rents, profits, income and benefits and all condemnation awards and all other compensation for any casualty event with respect to all or any part of the other Collateral (together with all rights to recover and proceed with respect to the same), and all accessions to, substitutions for and replacements of all or any part of the other Collateral.

(b) Perfection. The Borrower authorizes the Lender to file such financing statements and continuation statements in such offices from time to time before, on or after the date of this Agreement, as are necessary or as the Lender may determine to be appropriate to create, perfect and establish the priority of the liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral, to preserve the validity, perfection or priority of the liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral or to enable the Lender to exercise its remedies, rights, powers and privileges under this Agreement, and consents that any such financing statements may be filed describing the Collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property” of the Borrower (without, however, modifying the description of the Collateral as set forth in Section 2(a)), including, without limitation, the execution and delivery customary subordination and intercreditor agreements with respect to the Pali Notes. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower shall take all such other actions, and authenticate or sign and file or record such other records or instruments, as are necessary or as the Lender may request to perfect and establish the priority of the liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral or to enable the Lender to exercise its remedies, rights, powers and privileges under this Agreement, including cooperating with the Lender in obtaining, and taking such other actions as are necessary or that the Lender may request in order for it to obtain, control with respect to any of the Collateral the perfection of which requires control under the Code.

3. Rights of the Lender; Limitations on the Lender’s Obligations. It is expressly agreed by the Borrower that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and provisions of each such contracts and agreements, to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed and delivered. The exercise by the Lender of any right, remedy, power or privilege in respect of this Agreement shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties and obligations under those contracts and agreements. The Lender shall have no obligation or liability under those contracts or agreements or in respect of any governmental approval included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement or the assignment to the Lender of any payment relating to those contracts or agreements pursuant to this Agreement, nor shall the Lender be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of the Borrower under or pursuant to those contracts or agreements or any such governmental approval, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under those contracts or agreements, or to present or file any claim, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.


4. Representations and Warranties. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants that the Borrower is the sole beneficial owner of the Collateral or otherwise has the power to grant the security interests in the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement, and, except for the prior lien and security interest in favor of the holders of the Pali Notes referred to above, the Collateral is free and clear of all liens, and no security agreement, financing statement, equivalent security or lien instrument or continuation statement covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as may have been filed by the Borrower in favor of the Lender pursuant to this Agreement and as set forth in the Notes.

5. Covenants. The Borrower covenants and agrees with the Lender that from and after the date of this Agreement and until the Obligations are fully satisfied:

(a) Further Documentation. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Lender, and at the sole expense of the Borrower, the Borrower promptly and duly shall execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents and take such further action as the Lender reasonably may deem desirable to create, perfect and establish the priority of the liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral, to preserve the validity, perfection or priority of the liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral, and otherwise to enable the Lender to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Code in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the liens and security interests granted hereby. The Borrower also hereby authorizes the Lender to file any such financing or continuation statement without the signature of the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any promissory note or other instrument, such note or instrument shall immediately become a part of the Collateral and shall be pledged to the Lender, duly endorsed by the Borrower in a manner satisfactory to the Lender.

(b) Maintenance of Records. The Borrower will keep and maintain at its own cost and expense satisfactory and complete records of the Collateral including a record of all payments received and all credits granted with respect to the Collateral and all other dealings with the Collateral. The Borrower will mark, to the extent feasible, its books and records pertaining to the Collateral to evidence this Agreement and the security interests granted hereby. For the Lender’s further security, the Borrower agrees that the Lender shall have a special property interest in all of the Borrower’s books and records pertaining to the Collateral and the Borrower shall deliver and turn over copies of any such books and records to the Lender or to its representatives at any time on reasonable demand of the Lender.

(c) Indemnification. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by the Lender under any contract or agreement that is a part of the Collateral for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of such contract or agreement, the Borrower will save, indemnify and keep the Lender harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the person or entity against whom such suit, proceedings or action is brought, arising out of a breach by the Borrower of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such obligee or its successors from the Borrower, and all such obligations of the Borrower shall be and remain enforceable against and only against the Borrower and shall not be enforceable against the Lender.

(d) Compliance with Laws, etc. The Borrower will comply, in all material respects, with all acts, rules, regulations, orders, decrees and directions of any governmental authority, applicable to the Collateral or any part thereof; provided, however, that the Borrower may contest any act, regulation, order, decree or direction in any reasonable manner.

(e) Payment of Obligations. The Borrower will pay promptly when due, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the Collateral or in respect of its income or profits therefrom, as well as all claims of any kind (including claims for labor, materials and supplies), except that no such charge need be paid if (i) the validity thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, (ii) such proceedings do not involve any danger of the sale, forfeiture or loss of any of the Collateral or any interest therein and (iii) such charge is adequately reserved against in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.


(f) Limitation on Sale and Liens. Other than as set forth in the Notes and with respect to the first security interest in respect of the Pali Notes referred to above, the Borrower will not (i) dispose of the Collateral, (ii) permit any person other than the Lender to have control of any deposit account, electronic chattel paper, investment property or letter-of-credit right included in the Collateral and (iii) create, permit or suffer to exist, and will defend the Collateral against and take such other action as is necessary to remove, any lien, security interest, encumbrance, claim or right, in or to the Collateral, and will defend the right, title and interest of the Lender in and to any of the Borrower’s rights under and in the Collateral against the claims and demands of all persons whomsoever.

(g) Notices. The Borrower will advise the Lender promptly, in reasonable detail, (i) of any lien, security interest, encumbrance or claim made or asserted against any of the Collateral, (ii) of any material change in the composition of the Collateral not in the ordinary course of business, and (iii) of the occurrence of any other event which would have a material adverse effect on the aggregate value of the Collateral or on the security interests created hereunder not in the ordinary course of business.

(h) Right of Inspection. The Lender shall at all times have full and free access during normal business hours to all the books, correspondence and records of the Borrower, and the Lender or its representatives may examine the same, take extracts therefrom and make photocopies thereof, and the Borrower agrees to render to the Lender, at the Borrower’s cost and expense, such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard thereto. The Lender and its representatives shall at all times also have the right to enter into and upon any premises where any of the Collateral is located for the purpose of inspecting the same, observing its use or otherwise protecting the interests of the Lender therein.

6. The Lender’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact.

(a) Subject to the rights of the holders of the Pali Notes in respect of the prior lien and security interest in their favor referred to above, the Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Lender and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Borrower and in the name of the Borrower or in its own name, from time to time in the Lender’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, hereby gives the Lender the power and right, on behalf of the Borrower, without notice to or assent by the Borrower, to do the following:

(i) to create, perfect and establish the priority of the liens granted by this Agreement in any and all the Collateral, to preserve the validity, perfection or priority of the liens granted by this Agreement in any and all of the Collateral or to enable the Lender to exercise its remedies, rights, powers and privileges under this Agreement;

(ii) upon the occurrence and continuance of any Default or Event of Default, to ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittances and receipts for any and all moneys due and to become due under any contract or account that is a part of the Collateral and, in the name of the Borrower or its own name or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any contract or account that is a part of the Collateral and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Lender for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any such contract or account whenever payable;

(iii) to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral; and

(iv) upon the occurrence and continuance of any Default or Event of Default, (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any of the contracts or accounts that are a part of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due and to become due thereunder directly to the Lender or as the Lender shall direct; (B) to receive payment of and receipt for any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; (C) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any part thereof and


to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (D) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against the Borrower with respect to any Collateral; (E) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as the Lender may deem appropriate; and (F) generally to sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Lender were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Lender’s option and the Borrower’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Lender deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Lender’s security interest therein, in order to effect the intent of this Agreement, including the preparation, execution and recordation of patent, trademark or other forms of assignment, all as fully and effectively as the Borrower might do.

The Borrower hereby ratifies all that said attorneys-in-fact shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

(b) The powers conferred on the Lender hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. The Lender shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Borrower for any act or failure to act, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) The Borrower also authorizes the Lender, at any time and from time to time (i) to communicate in its own name with any party to any contract or agreement that is a part of the Collateral with regard to the assignment of those contracts or agreements hereunder and other matters relating thereto and (ii) to execute, in connection with the sale provided for in paragraph (b) of Section 8 of this Agreement, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral.

7. Performance by the Lender of the Borrower’s Obligations. If the Borrower fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in this Agreement, and the Lender, as provided for by the terms of this Agreement, itself performs or complies, or otherwise causes performance or compliance, with such agreement, the expenses of the Lender incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon, shall be payable by the Borrower to the Lender on demand and shall constitute an Obligation secured by this Agreement.

8. Remedies, Rights Upon An Event of Default.

(a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing:

(i) The Borrower shall, upon written request by the Lender, notify (and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender so to notify) each account debtor in respect of any accounts receivable that such Collateral has been assigned to the Lender under this Agreement and that any payments due or to become due in respect of that Collateral shall be made directly to the Lender;

(ii) All payments received by the Borrower under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be held by the Borrower in trust for the Lender, shall be segregated from other funds of the Borrower and shall forthwith upon receipt by the Borrower, be turned over to the Lender, subject to the rights of the holders of the Pali Notes in respect of the prior lien and security interest referred to above, in the same form as received by the Borrower (duly indorsed by the Borrower to the Lender, if required); and

(iii) Any and all such payments so received by the Lender (whether from the Borrower or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of the Lender, be held by the Lender as collateral security for, and then or at any time thereafter applied in whole or in part by the Lender, against all or any part of the Obligations.

Any balance of such payments so paid to or held by the Lender and remaining after payment in full of all the Obligations shall be paid over to the Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.


(b) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Lender may exercise in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower expressly agrees that in any such event the Lender, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon the Borrower or any other person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and/or notices are hereby expressly waived), may forthwith collect, receive appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange broker’s board or at any of the Lender’s offices or elsewhere at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Borrower, which right or equity is hereby expressly released. The Borrower further agrees, at the Lender’s request, to assemble the Collateral, make it available to the Lender at places which the Lender reasonably shall select, whether at the Borrower’s premises or elsewhere. The Lender shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care, safe keeping or otherwise of any or all of the Collateral or in any way relating to the rights of the Lender hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as the Lender may elect, the Borrower remaining liable for any deficiency remaining unpaid after such application, and only after so paying over such net proceeds and after the payment by the Lender of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Lender account for the surplus, if any, to the Borrower. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral. The Borrower agrees that the Lender need not give more than ten (10) days’ notice (which notification shall be deemed given when mailed, postage prepaid, addressed to the Borrower at its address set forth in Section 10 hereof) of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place and that such notice is reasonable notification of such matters. The Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Lender is entitled, the Borrower also being liable for the fees of any attorneys employed by the Lender to collect such deficiency.

(c) The Borrower also agrees to pay all costs of the Lender, including attorneys’ fees, incurred with respect to the collection of any of the Obligations and the enforcement of any of their respective rights hereunder.

9. Limitation on the Lender’s Duty in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the safe custody thereof, the Lender shall not have any duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of it or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.

10. Notices. All notices, demands and approvals hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or served when presented personally, telecopied or when deposited in the mail with first class postage prepaid:

The Lender shall also execute and deliver to the Borrower upon that termination such Code termination statements and such other documentation as is reasonably requested by the Borrower to effect the termination and release of the liens granted by this Agreement on the Collateral.

16. Amendments, Etc. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified or supplemented except by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and the Lender. Any modification, supplement or waiver shall be for such period and subject to such conditions as shall be specified in the written instrument effecting the same and shall be binding upon the Lender and the Borrower, and any such waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT. A. Subject to the vesting of the exercisability of applicable Warrants in accordance with the terms of paragraph 3 of the Loan Agreement, this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time or from time to time from the date hereof until the end of the Exercise Period by presentation and surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its principal office, or at the office of its stock transfer


agent, if any, with the Purchase Form annexed hereto duly executed and accompanied by payment of the Warrant Exercise Price for the number of shares of Common Stock specified in such form. If this Warrant should be exercised in part only, the Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, execute and deliver a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the balance of the shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant at its office, or by the stock transfer agent of the Company at its office, in proper form for exercise, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such shares of Common Stock shall not then actually be delivered to the Holder. As soon as practicable after each exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part, and in any event within seven (7) 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 hereof or, subject to Section 8 hereof, as the Holder (upon payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, a certificate or certificates (with appropriate restrictive legends, as applicable) for the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled upon exercise. All issuances of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded (up or down as the case may be) to the nearest whole share.

B. Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, in lieu of exercising this Warrant in the manner set forth in this Section 2, the Holder may elect to exercise this Warrant or a portion hereof and to pay for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise by way of cashless exercise by surrendering this Warrant at the principal executive office of the Company, together with the Notice of Exercise attached hereto duly executed, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder that number of shares of Common Stock of the Company 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 this Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being cancelled (at the date of such calculation).
     A      =    the greater of: (i) the Closing Price of one share of Common Stock (on the date prior to such exercise) or (ii) the 10-day average of the closing bid price of the shares of Common Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board prior to such surrender.
     B      =    the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

If the above calculation results in a negative number, then no shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be issued or issuable upon conversion of this Warrant.

3. RESERVATION OF SHARES/FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company hereby agrees that at all times there shall be reserved for issuance and/or delivery upon exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be required for issuance and delivery upon exercise of this Warrant. No fractional shares or script representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. Instead, the Company will round up to the nearest whole share.

4. EXCHANGE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT OR LOSS OF WARRANT. This Warrant is exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon presentation and surrender of this Warrant to the Company for other Warrants of different denominations entitling the Holder thereof to purchase in the aggregate the same number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. Upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, with the Assignment Form annexed hereto duly executed and funds sufficient to pay any applicable transfer tax, the Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name of the assignee named in such instrument of assignment and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants which carry the same rights upon presentation of this Warrant at the office of the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued and signed by the Holder hereof. The term “Warrant” as used herein includes any Warrants into which this Warrant may be divided or for which it


may be exchanged. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, (and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of reasonably satisfactory indemnification), and upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor. Any such new Warrant executed and delivered shall constitute an additional contractual obligation on the part of the Company, whether or not this Warrant so lost, stolen, destroyed, or mutilated shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

5. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE HOLDER. The Holder shall not, by virtue of this Warrant, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Company, either at law or equity, and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant and are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein. In addition, no provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder to purchase shares of Common Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder hereof shall give rise to any liability of such Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

6. NOTICES TO WARRANT HOLDERS. So long as this Warrant shall be outstanding, (a) if the Company shall pay any dividend or make any distribution upon Common Stock, or (b) if the Company shall offer to the holders of Common Stock for subscription or purchase by them any share of any class or any other rights, or (c) if any capital reorganization of the Company, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another entity, tender offer transaction for the Company’s Common Stock, sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company, or voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company shall be effected, or (d) if the Company shall file a registration statement under the Securities Act, or amend an existing Registration Statement, on any form other than on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form, then in any such case, the Company shall cause to be mailed by certified mail to the Holder, at least ten (10) days prior to the date specified in clauses (a), (b), (c) or (d), as the case may be, of this Section 6 a notice containing a brief description of the proposed action and stating the date on which (i) a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights, or (ii) such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, tender offer transaction, conveyance, lease, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock or other securities shall receive cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or (iii) such registration statement or amendment is to be filed with the SEC.

7. RECLASSIFICATION, REORGANIZATION OR MERGER. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, or in case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger with a subsidiary in which merger the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) or in case of any sale, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Company shall, as a condition precedent to such transaction, cause effective provisions to be made so that (i) the Holder shall have the right thereafter by exercising this Warrant, to purchase the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization and other change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which could have been purchased upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, and (ii) the successor or acquiring entity shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each covenant and condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all obligations and liabilities hereunder. The foregoing provisions of this Section 7 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations and changes of shares of Common Stock and to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

8. TRANSFER TO COMPLY WITH THE SECURITIES ACT. This Warrant, the Warrant Shares or any other security issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant may not be sold or otherwise disposed of except as follows:

(a) to a person who, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, is a person to whom this Warrant or Warrant Shares may legally be transferred without registration and without the delivery of a current


prospectus under the Securities Act with respect thereto and then only against receipt by the Company of an agreement of such person to comply with the provisions of this Section 8 with respect to any resale or other disposition of such securities, which agreement shall be satisfactory in form and substance to the Company and its counsel; or

(b) to any person upon delivery of a prospectus then meeting the requirements of the Securities Act relating to such securities and the offering thereof for such sale or disposition.

9. REGISTRATION. If the Company shall, after the date of the issuance of this Warrant, file a registration statement or amendment to an existing registration statement under the Securities Act as provided in Section 6(d) hereof, the Company shall use its best efforts to include the shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant in such registration statement or amended registration statement.

10. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION. The corporate laws of the State of [Delaware] shall govern all issues concerning the relative rights of the Company and its stockholders. All issues concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of [Delaware] without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. The parties hereto agree that venue in any and all actions and proceedings related to the subject matter of this Warrant shall be in the state and federal courts in and for Kent County, Delaware, which courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction for such purpose, and the parties hereto irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and irrevocably waive the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or proceeding. Service of process may be made in any manner recognized by such courts. 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 the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.
