any of the following with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the most
recent of the following: (A) the Company's most recent Form 10-QSB or Form
10-KSB, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the

number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.&#160;&#160;The &#8220;<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Beneficial Ownership
Limitation</font>&#8221; shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock

Section 3.5 may be waived by such Holder, at the election of such Holder, upon
not less than 61 days&#8217; prior notice to the Company, to, at the sole discretion
of the Holder, either change the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to (i) 9.99% of
the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving
effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the
Debenture held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 3.5 shall
continue to apply, or (ii) remove any Beneficial Ownership Limitation under this
Debenture.&#160;&#160;The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and
implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of
this Section 3.5 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be
defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation
herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to
properly give effect to such limitation.&#160;&#160;If any court of competent
jurisdiction shall determine that the foregoing limitation is ineffective to
prevent a Holder from being deemed the beneficial owner of more than 9.99% of
the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, then the Company shall prepay such
portion of this Debenture as shall cause such Holder not to be deemed the
beneficial owner of more than 9.99% of the then outstanding shares of Common
Stock.&#160;&#160;Upon such determination by a court of competent jurisdiction,
the Holder shall have no interest in or rights under such portion of the
Debenture.&#160;&#160;Any and all interest paid on or prior to the date of such
determination shall be deemed interest paid on the remaining portion of this
Debenture held by the Holder.&#160;&#160;Such prepayment shall be for cash at a
prepayment price of one hundred percent (100%) of the Principal Amount thereof,
together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of

Holder from the receipt of cash payment on this Debenture may be difficult to
determine and the amount to be so paid by the Company represents stipulated
damages and not a penalty and is intended to compensate the Holder in part for
loss of the opportunity to convert this Debenture and to earn a return from the
sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of this Debenture at a
price in excess of that price paid for such shares pursuant to this Debenture.
The Company and the Holder hereby agree that such amount of stipulated damages
is not disproportionate to the possible loss to the Holder from the receipt of a
cash payment without the opportunity to convert this Debenture into shares of
Common Stock.</font></div>
