Item 5. Other Events
On March 3, 2000, the Company closed on a financing of up to $5,000,000
pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated March 3, 2000 (the
"Securities Purchase Agreement"). Under the terms of the financing, an
investor initially provided the Company with proceeds of $2,000,000 (less a
ten percent placement fee and other offering costs of investor and the Company
of approximately $15,000) in exchange for an 8% Convertible Debenture (the
"Debenture") in the principal amount of $2,000,000 and Series 2000-A Warrants
(the "2000-A Warrants") exercisable for 1,283,697 shares of the Company's
common stock for a four year period as further described below.
Under the Securities Purchase Agreement and subject to certain
contingencies, the investor has agreed to make additional investments of
$500,000 each in April, May, June, July, August and September 2000. The
additional investments will be reduced by a ten percent placement fee and
certain offering costs. The terms of the subsequent investments provide that
the investor will receive a Debenture in the principal amount of the funds
invested plus 2000-A Warrants exercisable for a number of shares and at an
exercise price described below.
The following description of the Debenture and 2000-A Warrants is a
summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by
the provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, form of
Debenture, Form of 2000-A Warrant agreement, the provisions of the Delaware
General Corporation Law ("DGCL") and the other instruments defining the rights
of security holders.
The Debentures
The Debentures are due and payable in full on or before March 1, 2001 and
require the payment of quarterly interest payments at the rate of 8% per
annum. The due date for the Debentures may be accelerated if the Company's
stock price falls to $1 or less per share for five consecutive days or upon
the happening of certain other events. The Company may redeem the Debentures
within 180 days after March 3, 2000 at a redemption price (plus accrued and
unpaid interest) equal to 125% of the aggregate principal amount of the
Debenture. At the option of the Debenture holder, the Company is required to
redeem the Debentures if the Company is in default of certain obligations
under the Debenture agreement or if the average of the closing bid prices for
the Company's common stock for five consecutive trading days is less than or
equal to $1.00.
At the option of the Debenture holder, the Debentures or any portion
thereof and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon may be converted into
shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price equal to eighty
percent of the lesser of (i) the average of the three lowest closing bid
prices for the Company's common stock during the fifteen trading days
preceding the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, or (ii) the average
of the three lowest closing bid prices for the Company's common stock during
the fifteen trading days preceding the conversion date, subject to a maximum
conversion price of $3.00 per share and a minimum conversion price of $1.00
per share. The conversion rights are also subject to adjustment in certain
events.
2000-A Warrants
The 2000-A Warrants are exercisable in whole or in part at any time after
November 15, 2000 through March 3, 2004. The 2000-A Warrants are exercisable
for a number of shares of common stock equal to the aggregate principal amount
of the Debentures issued at a closing divided by the conversion price of the
Debentures as of the issue date of the related Debenture. The 2000-A Warrants
are exercisable at a price equal to one hundred five percent of the lesser of
(i) the average of the three lowest closing bid prices for the Company's
common stock during the fifteen trading days preceding the date of the
Securities Purchase Agreement, or (ii) the average of the three lowest closing
bid prices for the Company's common stock during the fifteen trading days
preceding the exercise date, subject to a maximum conversion price of
2
<PAGE>
$3.00 per share and a minimum conversion price of $1.00 per share. The
conversion rights are also subject to adjustment in certain events.
Registration Rights
The Company has agreed to file one or more registration statements under
the Securities Act to register for sale the shares of common stock issuable
upon conversion of the Debentures and exercise of the 2000-A Warrants and to
prosecute the same with diligence to effectiveness. All costs and expenses
associated with the preparation, filing and prosecution of such registration
statement(s) shall be borne by the Company. If the Company fails to cause such
resale registration statement to become effective within the time periods set
forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement, then during each 30 day period
that the Company is not in compliance the Company is require to issued to the
Debenture holder a number of shares of common stock equal to ten percent of
the total number of shares of common stock issued.
In addition, security holders owning Company securities convertible into
351,014 shares of common stock have piggy-back registration rights. These
shares are expected to be registered for resale in the proposed resale
registration statement.
Possible Additional Dilution; Sale of Conversion Shares
The value of existing shares of common stock will be diluted upon the
conversion of the Debentures and upon exercise of the A-2000 Warrants.
Additionally, the sale of common stock into which the Debentures are
convertible or which will be issued upon exercise of warrants could have a
negative impact on the trading price of the Company's common stock and could
increase the volatility in the trading price of the common stock. Moreover, if
the trading price of the common stock were to decrease, the number of shares
issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and the exercise price of the
2000-A Warrants, which conversion price and exercise price are tied directly
to the trading price, could result in substantial dilution to the Company
other security holders.
Additional Shares Available for Future Sale
The shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and
exercise of the 2000-A Warrants are expected to be freely available for resale
into the public markets pursuant to an effective registration statement under
the Securities Act. Sales of substantial amounts of such common stock in the
public market could adversely effect prevailing market prices.
Default Risk
The Company's cash reserves are not sufficient to pay the principal or
interest payments due under the Debentures. The Company expects that it will
be required to raise additional fund to pay of the Debentures if the
Debentures are not converted. The Company does not have any commitments for
additional funding to pay off the Debentures . Moreover due date for the
Debentures could be accelerated for reasons that are not directly under the
Company's control, such as the Company's stock price falling to the $1 level
for five consecutive trading days. As a result, the cannon predict with
certainty when the Debentures will come due and there can be no assurance that
the Company will have the financial resources to pay off the Debentures if and
when the Debentures become due and payable. Failure to pay of the Debentures
when due would have a material adverse effect on the Company and may result in
the Company ceasing operations.

independent accountants and legal counsel so long as such access does
not violate any applicable Federal or state law or cause the loss
of the attorney-client privilege;
17

Stock, solely for the purposes of issuance upon conversion of the Debentures
and the exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as

This Debenture is one of a series of Debentures, defined herein, of the
Company issued pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March
3, 2000 (as amended and modified from time to time, the "Purchase
Agreement"), between the Company and Holder, and this Debenture is one of the

Debenture, and all provisions of the Purchase Agreement are hereby
incorporated herein in full by reference. Except as otherwise indicated
herein, capitalized terms used in this Debenture have the same meanings set
forth in the Purchase Agreement.
The Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of its 8%
Convertible Debentures due March 1, 2001 in aggregate principal amount not to
exceed U.S. $5,000,000 (the "Debentures"). It is covenanted and agreed as
follows:
1. Payment. The Company, for value received, hereby promises to pay
to the order of the Holder the Principal Amount, set forth above, of this
Debenture on or before March 1, 2001 (the "Due Date"), and to pay interest
quarterly on March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 of each year, at the
rate of 8% per annum, until the earlier of an Event of Default, as defined
herein, or the due date of the Debentures. After the earlier of an Event of
Default or the due date of the Debentures and before and after judgment, the
Company, for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of the Holder
interest monthly on the first day of each calendar month, at the rate of 2.5%
per month (30 calendar day period or portion thereof) (the "Default Rate"),
until all principal and accrued interest are paid in full.
Interest on the Debentures will accrue from the most recent date to
which interest has been paid, or if no interest has been paid, from the Issue
Date of this Debenture. The Holder at its option may elect to receive
-1-
<PAGE> 29
payment of interest in cash or in Common Stock at the Conversion Price, as
defined below. The Debentures may not be prepaid except as specifically
provided for in the Debenture or with the prior written consent of the Holder.
2. Debentures - Transfer, Exchange. When Debentures are presented to
the Company with a request to register a transfer of such Debentures or to
exchange such Debentures for an equal aggregate principal amount of Debentures
of other denominations, the Company shall register such transfer or exchange
without cost to the Holder.
3. Redemption.
(a) Optional Redemption. At any time after the Issue Date of this
Debenture but not after the date which is 180 days after the date of the
Purchase Agreement, the Company may, at the option of the Company, redeem
all of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of this Debenture at a
redemption price (plus accrued and unpaid interest and penalties thereon)
equal to 125% of the aggregate principal amount of this Debenture (the
"Redemption Price"). The Company may not redeem any Debentures pursuant to
this paragraph (a), unless all interest accrued on all of the outstanding
Debentures through the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date has been
paid in full. The Company may not redeem any Debenture which has been
converted or for which a Notice of Conversion has been delivered to the
Company.
(b) Mandatory Redemption. If at any time after the Issue Date of
this Debenture (i) an Event of Default occurs, or (ii) the average of the
closing bid prices for the Company's Common Stock for five (5) consecutive
trading days, as quoted in the NASDAQ Stock Market System or reported on the
NASD's OTC Bulletin Board, is less than or equal to $1.00, the Company shall
redeem, at the option of the Holder of this Debenture, the outstanding
principal amount of this Debenture at the Redemption Price (plus accrued and
unpaid interest and penalties thereon).
(c) Notice of Redemption. The Company shall deliver written
notice of each redemption, pursuant to paragraph (a) above, of this Debenture
to the Holder hereof not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date
specified in the notice on which such redemption is to be made (the
"Redemption Date"). A Holder of a Debenture may submit written notice of a
redemption, pursuant to paragraph (b) above, to the Company not less than ten
(10) days prior to the date specified in the notice on which such redemption
is to be made (the "Redemption Date"). In case less than all of the aggregate
principal amount of this Debenture is redeemed, a new Debenture representing
the aggregate principal amount of the unredeemed Debenture shall be issued to
the Holder thereof without cost to such Holder within two (2) business days
after surrender of this Debenture.
(d) Redemption Payments. For each Debenture which is to be
redeemed hereunder, the Company shall be obligated on the applicable
Redemption Date to pay to the Holder thereof (upon surrender by such Holder
at the Company's principal office of the Debenture) the Redemption Price (plus
accrued and unpaid interest and penalties thereon) in cash or in immediately
available funds. If the Company does not make the payment when due, interest
will accrue on all outstanding Debentures from and after the Redemption Date
at the Default Rate and the Conversion Price calculated pursuant to Section 4
in connection with any subsequent conversion of this Debenture will be reduced
by $.50 per share.
(e) Interest After Redemption Date. If the Redemption Price
(plus accrued and unpaid interest and penalties thereon) of such Debenture is
paid in full to the Holder of such Debenture on the Redemption Date, this
Debenture shall not be entitled to any interest accruing after such date and
on such date, all rights of the holder of the Debenture shall cease, and
such Debenture shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding.
4. Conversion. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of
the Debentures, at the option of the Holder thereof, the Debentures or any
portion thereof and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon may be converted
into fully paid and nonassessable shares (calculated as to each conversion to
the nearest number of whole shares) of the common stock, $.001 par value, of
the Company (the "Common Stock") at the Conversion Price, as defined
-2-
<PAGE> 30
herein, subject to adjustment as provided herein. "Conversion Price" means
80% of the lesser of (i) the average of the three lowest closing bid prices
for the Common Stock quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market System or reported on
the NASD's OTC Bulletin Board during the 15 trading days preceding the date of
the Purchase Agreement, or (ii) the average of the three lowest closing bid
prices for the Common Stock quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market System or
reported on the NASD's OTC Bulletin Board during the 15 trading days preceding
the conversion date, subject to a maximum Conversion Price of $3.00 per share
and a minimum Conversion Price of $1.00 per share.

Purchase Agreement with respect to up to 33% of the aggregate principal amount
of this Debenture and accrued interest thereon; on or after the 30th day
following the date of the Purchase Agreement with respect to up to 67% of the
aggregate principal amount of this Debenture and accrued interest thereon; and
on or after the 60th day following the date of the Purchase Agreement with
respect to all or any portion of the aggregate principal amount of this
Debenture and accrued interest thereon and such conversion right shall expire
when all of the Debentures have been paid in full, including accrued interest
and costs of collection. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all of
the Debentures shall be immediately convertible notwithstanding any timing
restrictions imposed herein and the conversion price shall not be subject to
any limitations on the minimum imposed herein.
If on the due date of the Debentures, the Fair Market Value of a share
of the Common Stock of the Company is greater than $2.00, the Holder shall
convert all of the outstanding Debentures as provided herein.
In the case of any Debenture which is surrendered for conversion,
accrued and unpaid interest will be payable on such Debenture with respect to
the period ending on the conversion date. The Holder at its option may elect
to receive payment of interest in cash or in Common Stock at the Conversion
Price.
A. Exercise of Conversion Privilege. To exercise the conversion
privilege, the Holder of the Debentures shall surrender to the Company such
Debentures, duly endorsed or assigned to the Company or in blank, accompanied
by written Notice of Conversion to the Company in the form provided in this
Debenture that the Holder elects to convert such Debenture or, if less than
the entire principal amount thereof is to be converted, the specified portion.
Debentures shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to
the close of business on the day of surrender of such Debentures for
conversion in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and at such time the
rights of the Holders of such Debentures as Holders shall cease, and the
person or persons entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon
conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders
of such Common Stock as and after such time.
Within two (2) business days after the conversion date, the Company,
without cost to the Holder, shall issue and shall deliver to the Holder of
the converted Debenture or the person specified by such Holder a certificate
or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion registered in the name of such Holder or such other person as shall
have been specified by such Holder and all accrued and unpaid interest on the
converted Debenture or portion thereof upon which the Holder does not elect to
receive payment in Common Stock.
Upon conversion of this Debenture, the Company shall take all such
actions as are necessary in order to insure that the Common Stock issuable
with respect to such conversion shall be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.
The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of Common
Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of this Debenture in any manner which
interferes with the timely conversion of this Debenture. The Company shall
assist and cooperate with any Holder of this Debenture required to make any
governmental filings or obtain any governmental approval prior to or in
connection with the conversion of this Debenture (including, without
limitation, making any filings required to be made by the Company).
-3-
<PAGE> 31
The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of
issuance upon the conversion of this Debenture, such number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Debentures. All
shares of Common Stock which are so issuable shall, when issued, be duly and
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes,
liens and charges. The Company shall take all such actions as may be
necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued
without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or
any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of
Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which
shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance).
The conversion rights of any Debenture subject to redemption hereunder
shall terminate on the Redemption Date for such Debenture unless the Company
has failed to pay to the Holder thereof the Redemption Price of such
Debenture or portion thereof (plus all accrued and unpaid interest and
penalties thereon and any premium payable with respect thereto).
B. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares upon
Issuance of Common Stock. If and whenever, on or after the date of the
Purchase Agreement, the Company issues or sells (or in accordance with
Section 4.C is deemed to have issued or sold) (specifically excluding those
shares of Common Stock issued and sold upon the exercise of options and
warrants granted prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement), other than (i)
as described in Section 4.D or (ii) pursuant to the Purchase Rights
covered by Section 4.I, any shares of Common Stock for a consideration per
share less than the Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock determined
as of the earlier of (x) the announcement of such issuance or sale, or (y) the
date of such issuance or sale, then immediately upon such issuance or sale the
Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal the amount determined by
multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance
or sale by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the sum of (1) the
number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding (including Shares deemed
outstanding pursuant to Section 4.C.(i)) immediately prior to such issuance
or sale multiplied by the Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock
determined as of the date of such issuance or sale, plus (2) the
consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance or sale,
and the denominator of which will be the product derived by multiplying such
Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock by the number of shares of
Common Stock deemed outstanding (including Shares deemed outstanding pursuant
to Section 4.C.(i)) immediately after such issuance or sale. Upon each such
adjustment of the Conversion Price hereunder, the number of Conversion Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Debenture shall be adjusted to equal the number
of shares determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Conversion Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Debenture immediately prior to such adjustment
and dividing the product thereof by the Conversion Price resulting from such
adjustment. For the purposes of this Section 4, the calculation of the number
of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding shall exclude the Conversion
Shares.
C. Effect on Exercise Price of Certain Events. For purposes of
determining the adjusted Conversion Price under Section 3.B, the following
shall be applicable:
(i) Issuance of Rights or Options or Convertible Securities. If the
Company in any manner grants any rights or options, whether or not
immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or any
stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
(including without limitation convertible common stock) (such rights or
options being herein called "Options" and such convertible or exchangeable
stock or securities being herein called "Convertible Securities") or if the
Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or
not immediately convertible or exchangeable, and the Fair Market Value per
share for which Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or
upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is less than the
Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock in effect on the earlier of
(x) the announcement of such grant or issuance or sale and (y) the date of
such grant or issuance or sale, then the total maximum number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon
conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such
Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options of upon
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities shall be
-4-
<PAGE> 32
deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for
such Fair Market Value per share. For purposes of this paragraph, the
"Fair Market Value per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon exercise
of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities"
is determined by dividing (A) the total amount, if any, received or
receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such Options,
plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the
Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus in the case of such
Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate
amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon
the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and the conversion or
exchange thereof, by (B) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or
exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of
such Options. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made
upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock or of such Convertible
Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of
such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
(ii) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If either the
purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration,
if any, payable upon the issue, conversion or exchange of any Convertible
Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible
into or exchangeable for Common Stock shall change at any time to an amount
which is less than the Fair Market Value, then the Conversion Price in effect
at the time of such change shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price which
would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible
Securities still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price,
additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at
the time initially granted, issued or sold and the number of Conversion
Shares shall be correspondingly readjusted.
D. Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time
subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or
otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of
shares of Common Stock, or pays a dividend or makes a distribution to holders
of outstanding shares of Common Stock in the form of shares of Common Stock,
or combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price of the
Debentures in effect immediately prior to such event and the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures shall be
proportionately adjusted so that the holder of the Debentures thereafter
surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive after the occurrence
of any of the events described the proportionate number of shares of Common
Stock to which the holder would have been entitled had such Debenture been
exercised immediately prior to the occurrence of such event, such adjustment
to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day
following the date upon which such subdivision or combination or
reclassification, as the case may be, becomes effective.
E. Liquidation of the Company. In the event of the liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up of the Company, a notice thereof shall be sent to
the Holder at least 15 days before the record date specified for determining
holders of the shares of Common Stock entitled to receive any distribution
upon such liquidation, dissolution, or winding up.
F. Consolidation of Company. In the case of any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation and
which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding shares
of the class issuable upon conversion of the Debentures), or in case of any
sale or transfer to another corporation of the property of the Company as an
entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Holder of each Debenture then
outstanding shall have the right to exercise such Debenture for the purchase
of the kind and amount of shares of Common Stock and other securities and
property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale, or transfer by a
holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which would have been issuable
if the conversion of the Debentures had occurred immediately prior to such
consolidation, merger, sale, or transfer.
-5-
<PAGE> 33
G. Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type
contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4 but not expressly provided
for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of
stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity
features), then the Company's Board of Directors shall exercise their
reasonable judgment consistent with the fundamental intent of such provisions
in making an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price and the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures so as to
protect the rights of the Holder of the Debentures.
H. Notices.
(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, the
Company shall give written notice thereof to the Holder, setting forth in
reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment.
(ii) The Company shall give written notice to the Holder at
least 30 days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes
a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common
Stock, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of
Common Stock, or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, dissolution or
liquidation.
(iii) The Company shall also give written notice to the Holder at
least 30 days prior to the date on which any recapitalization,
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or
substantially all of the Company's assets, dissolution or liquidation shall
take place.
I. Purchase Rights. If at any time the Company grants, issues or
sells any options, convertible securities or rights to purchase stock,
warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of
the Common Stock (the "Purchase Rights"), then the Company shall grant,
issue or sell (as the case may be) to the Holder the aggregate Purchase Rights
which such Holder would have acquired if such Holder had held the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all the
Debentures immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the
grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights or, if no such record is
taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be
determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.
5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Company hereby
represents, warrants and covenants as follows:
A. Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized
but unissued Common Stock or out of the Common Stock held in treasury, the
full number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable
upon the conversion of all issued and outstanding Debentures.
B. Covenant as to Common Stock. The Company covenants that all
shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon conversion of Debentures,
including interest, additional shares of Common Stock and penalties, will upon
issue be fully paid and nonassessable and the Company will pay all taxes,
liens and charges that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of
shares of Common Stock on conversion of Debentures pursuant hereto.
C. Payment of Debentures. The Company shall pay the principal of,
and interest on, the Debentures on the dates and in manner provided herein and
in the Debentures.
D. Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the
extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon,
plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of,
any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time
hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this
Debenture; and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby
expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that
it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution
of any right herein granted to the Holder.
-6-
<PAGE> 34
E. Continued Existence. The Company will do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence
as a corporation and will refrain from taking any action that would cause its

that would result in the liquidation, winding up or dissolution of the
Company.
F. Further Assurances. From time to time the Company will make,
execute and deliver to the Holder, or cause to be made, executed and delivered
to the Holder, any and all such further and other instruments and assurances

rights and remedies hereunder of Holders.
G. Restricted Payments. The Company shall not declare and pay any
dividends on its capital stock or redeem, acquire or otherwise retire for
value any securities issued by it (other than the Debentures) unless, at the
time of the taking of such action, no Event of Default or event which with
notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing.
H. Successors. The Company shall not, whether in a single
transaction or through a series of related transactions, consolidate or merge
with or into, or sell, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its assets to, any person unless such person agrees in
writing to assume all obligations of the Company under the Debentures.
I. Authorization. The Company has full authority to make and perform
its obligations under the Debentures, and the Debentures when executed and
delivered by the Company were or will be the legal, valid and binding
obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective
terms.
J. Litigation. Except as disclosed in Schedule 4.7 of the Purchase
Agreement, there is no claim, litigation or governmental proceeding against
the Company now pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, which
is substantial in amount or which, if adversely determined would have a
material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company or the
ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Debentures.
6. Defaults And Remedies
A. Events of Default. An "Event of Default" shall occur if:
(i) the Company defaults in the payment of principal or
interest on any Debenture when the same becomes due and payable, whether at
maturity or upon acceleration or redemption or otherwise;
(ii) the Company fails to perform or observe any material
provision contained in this Debenture, the Purchase Agreement or in the
Related Documents, and in the case of Section 8.2 of the Purchase Agreement,

Agreement or required to be furnished to any holder of the Debentures

writing required to be furnished by the Company or any Subsidiary to any
holder of the Debentures, is false or misleading in any material respect
on the date made or furnished;
(iv) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any
Bankruptcy Law becomes a party to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings and
such proceeding is not dismissed within 30 days;
(v) any material provision of the Purchase Agreement, the

declared to be null and void, or the validity or enforceability thereof shall
be contested by any party thereto, or a proceeding shall be commenced by
the Company seeking to establish the

that it has any liability or obligation purported to be created under the
Purchase Agreement or any Related Document;

C. Collection. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the
Holder may recover judgment against the Company for the whole amount of
principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Debentures and interest on
overdue principal and interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient
to cover the costs and, to the extent lawful, reasonable expenses of
collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Holder, its agents and counsel.

Warrant Certificate
for the Purchase of Common Stock
Dated: ___________ Number of Series 2000-A Warrants: _________
This certifies that, for value received, the sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, ASPEN CAPITAL RESOURCES, LLC or its assigns (the
"Holder"), a Utah limited liability company with an address at 8989 South
Schofield Circle, Sandy, Utah 84093, is the owner of the number of Series
2000-A Warrants (the "Warrants") set forth above, each of which represents the
right to purchase one fully paid and nonassessable share of the common stock,
$.001 par value, (the "Shares") of FLEXPOINT SENSOR SYSTEMS, INC. (the
"Company"), a Delaware corporation with an address at 6906 South 300 West,
Midvale, Utah 84047, at the initial exercise price which is equal to 105% of
the lesser of (i) the average of the three lowest closing bid prices for the
Shares quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market System or reported on the NASD's OTC
Bulletin Board during the 15 trading days preceding the date of the Purchase
Agreement (the "Initial Exercise Price"), or (ii) the average of the three
lowest closing bid prices for the Shares quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market
System or reported on the NASD's OTC Bulletin Board during the 15 trading days
preceding the date of this Warrant (the "Initial Exercise Price"), subject to
a maximum Initial Exercise Price of $3.00 per share and a minimum Initial
Exercise Price of $1.00 per share The Initial Exercise Price and number of
Shares (and the amount and kind of other securities) for which this Warrant
is exercisable shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein.
This Warrant Certificate relates to Warrants of the Company issued
pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 3, 2000 (as
amended and modified from time to time, the "Purchase Agreement"), between the
Company and the Holder, and the Warrants are those Warrants referred to in the
Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement contains terms governing the
rights of the Holder of this Warrant Certificate, and all provisions of the
Purchase Agreement are hereby incorporated herein in full by reference.
1. Duration. Warrants may be exercised at any time and from time to time
on or after November 15, 2000 (the "Exercise Commencement"), but not after
March 3, 2004 (the "Exercise Deadline").
2. Exercise.
A. All or any number of the Warrants may be exercised by surrendering
the Warrant Certificate(s) representing the Warrants to be exercised to the
Company, together with (i) an Election to Exercise (in the form attached
hereto and incorporated herein by reference) completed and signed by the
person exercising the Warrants, (ii) if the person exercising the Warrants is
not the registered Holder, an Assignment (in the form attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference) evidencing assignment of the Warrants to the
person exercising them, and (iii) payment in full of the Exercise Price of the
Warrants to be exercised, either by (x) a check payable to the Company, (y)
the surrender to the Company of securities of the Company having a value equal
to the Exercise
-1-
<PAGE> 40
Price of the Warrants to be exercised (which value in the case of debt
securities shall be the principal amount thereof and accrued and unpaid
interest thereon and in the case Shares shall be the Fair Market Value
thereof), or (z) the delivery of a notice to the Company that the Company is
authorized to reduce the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants by the number of Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as
defined herein) equal to the Exercise Price of the Warrants to be exercised.
"Fair Market Value" means the closing bid price of a Share quoted on the
NASDAQ Stock Market System or reported on the NASD's OTC Bulletin Board. A
Warrant shall be deemed exercised when all of the foregoing have been
delivered to the Company (the "Exercise Date").
B. Upon the exercise of less than all of the Warrants evidenced by
this Warrant Certificate, there shall be issued to the Holder a new Warrant
Certificate in respect of the Warrants not exercised. No fractional Shares
will be issued upon the exercise of Warrants. As to any final fraction of a
share which the Holder of one or more Warrant Certificates, the rights under
which are exercised in the same transaction, would otherwise be entitled to
purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay the cash value. Within two
(2) business days after the Exercise Date, the Company shall issue and shall
deliver to the Holder of the exercised Warrants or the person specified by
such Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full Shares
issuable upon exercise registered in the name of such Holder or such other
person as shall have been specified by such Holder.
C. The Shares issuable upon the exercise of Warrants shall be deemed
to have been issued to the Holder on the Exercise Date, and the Holder shall
be deemed for all purposes to have become the owner of such Shares on the
Exercise Date.
D. The Company covenants that all Shares which may be issued upon
exercise of Warrants will, upon payment of the Exercise Price therefor, be
fully paid and nonassessable and the Company will pay all taxes, liens and
charges and any other costs incurred by the Company in connection with the
exercise of the Warrants and the issuance and delivery of Shares pursuant
thereto.
E. The Company shall not close its books against the transfer of
Warrants or of any Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of Warrants in
any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of Warrants.
F. The Company shall assist and cooperate with any reasonable request
by the Holder which is required to make any governmental filings or obtain
any governmental approvals prior to
or in connection with any exercise of Warrants.
G. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of
its authorized but unissued Shares solely for the purpose of issuance upon
the exercise of Warrants, the maximum number of Shares issuable upon the
exercise of all Warrants. All Shares which are so issuable shall, when issued
and upon the payment of the applicable Exercise Price, be duly and validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and
charges. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to
ensure that all such Shares may be so issued without violation by the Company
of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any
domestic securities exchange upon which Shares or other securities
constituting Shares may be listed (except for official notice of issuance
which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such
issuance). The Company will use its best efforts to cause the Shares issuable
upon exercise, immediately upon such exercise, to be listed on any domestic
securities exchange upon which Shares are listed at the time of such exercise.
H. The Company shall not, and shall not permit its subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, by any action (including, without limitation,
reincorporation in a jurisdiction other than Delaware, amending its
Certificate of Incorporation or through any issuance or sale of securities or
any other voluntary action) avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
performance of any of the terms of this Warrant Certificate or impair or
diminish its value (except for any action which ratably affects all Shares),
but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such
terms of this Warrant Certificate. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company shall (a) obtain all such authorizations, exemptions
or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof
-2-
<PAGE> 41
as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under
this Warrant Certificate and (b) not undertake any reverse stock split,
combination, reorganization or other reclassification of its capital stock
which would have the effect of making Warrants exercisable for less than one
Share for each Holder.
3. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. In order to
prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant Certificate, the
Initial Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
provided in this Section 3 (the "Exercise Price"), and the number of Shares
issuable upon exercise of Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time
to time, each as provided in this Section 3.
A. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares upon Issuance
of Shares. If and whenever, on or after the first date upon which a Warrant
is granted by the Company to a Holder, the Company issues or sells (or in
accordance with Section 3B is deemed to have issued or sold) (specifically
excluding those shares of Common Stock issued and sold upon the exercise of
options and warrants granted prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement),
other than (i) as described in Section 3C or (ii) pursuant to the Purchase
Rights covered by Section 4, any Shares for a consideration per share less
than the Fair Market Value per Share determined as of the earlier of (x) the
announcement of such issuance or sale, or (y) the date of such issuance or
sale, then immediately upon such issuance or sale the Exercise Price shall be
reduced to equal the amount determined by multiplying the Exercise Price
in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale by a fraction, the
numerator of which will be the sum of (1) the number of Shares deemed
outstanding (including Shares deemed outstanding pursuant to Section 3.B.(i))
immediately prior to such issuance or sale multiplied by the Fair Market Value
per Share determined as of the date of such issuance or sale, plus (2) the
consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issuance or sale, and
the denominator of which will be the product derived by multiplying such
Fair Market Value per Share by the number of Shares deemed outstanding
(including Shares deemed outstanding pursuant to Section 3.B.(i)) immediately
after such issuance or sale. Upon each such adjustment of the Exercise Price
hereunder, the number of Shares acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant shall
be adjusted to equal the number of shares determined by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number
of Shares acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting
from such adjustment.
B. Effect on Exercise Price of Certain Events. For purposes of
determining the adjusted Exercise Price under Section 3A, the following shall
be applicable:
(i) Issuance of Rights or Options or Convertible Securities. If the
Company in any manner grants any rights or options, whether or not
immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Shares or any stock
or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares (including
without limitation convertible common stock) (such rights or options
being herein called "Options" and such convertible or exchangeable stock or
securities being herein called "Convertible Securities") or if the Company in
any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not
immediately convertible or exchangeable, and the price per share for which
Shares are issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or
exchange of such Convertible Securities is less than the Fair Market Value
per Share in effect on the earlier of (x) the announcement of such grant or
issuance or sale and (y) the date of such grant or issuance or sale, then the
total maximum number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of such
Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of
such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options of
upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to
be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such
price per share. For purposes of this paragraph, the "price per share for
which Shares are issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon conversion
or exchange of such Convertible Securities" is determined by dividing (A) the
total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration
for the granting of such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of
additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such
Options, plus in the case of such Options which relate to Convertible
Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if
any, payable to the Company upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible
Securities and the conversion or exchange thereof, by (B) the total maximum
number of Shares issuable upon exercise of such Options or upon the conversion
or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of
such Options. No further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon
the actual issuance of such Shares or of such Convertible
-3-
<PAGE> 42
Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of
such Shares upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
(ii) Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate. If either the
purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if
any, payable upon the issue, conversion or exchange of any Convertible
Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible
into or exchangeable for Shares shall change at any time to an amount which is
less than the Fair Market Value, then the Exercise Price in effect at the
time of such change shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price which would
have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities
still outstanding provided for such changed purchase price, additional
consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time
initially granted, issued or sold and the number of Shares issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants shall be correspondingly readjusted.
C. Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time
subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or
otherwise) the outstanding Shares into a greater number of Shares, or pays a
dividend or makes a distribution to holders of outstanding Shares in the form
of Shares, or combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) the outstanding
Shares into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price of the Warrants in
effect immediately prior to such event and the number of Shares obtainable
upon exercise of Warrants shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder
of the Warrants thereafter surrendered for exercise shall be entitled to
receive after the occurrence of any of the events described the proportionate
number of Shares to which the Holder would have been entitled had such Warrant
been exercised immediately prior to the occurrence of such event, such
adjustment to become effective immediately after the opening of business on
the day following the date upon which such subdivision or combination or
reclassification, as the case may be, becomes effective.
D. Liquidation of the Company. In the event of the liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up of the Company, a notice thereof shall be sent to
the Holder at least 15 days before the record date specified for determining
holders of the Shares entitled to receive any distribution upon such
liquidation, dissolution, or winding up.
E. Consolidation of Company. In the case of any consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation and
which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding shares
of the class issuable upon exercise of the Warrants), or in case of any sale
or transfer to another corporation of the property of the Company as an
entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Holder of each Warrant then
outstanding shall have the right to exercise such Warrant for the purchase of
the kind and amount of Shares and other securities and property receivable
upon such consolidation, merger, sale, or transfer by a holder of the number
of Shares which would have been issuable if the conversion of the Warrants had
occurred immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale, or transfer.
F. Certain Events. If any event occurs of the type
contemplated by the provisions of this Section 3 but not expressly provided
for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of
stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity
features), then the Company's Board of Directors shall exercise their
reasonable judgment consistent with the fundamental intent of such provisions
in making an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of
Shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants so as to protect the rights of the
Holder of Warrants.
G. Notices.
(i) Immediately upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, the
Company shall give written notice thereof to the Holder, setting forth in
reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment.
(ii) The Company shall give written notice to the Holder at least
30 days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a
record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the
-4-
<PAGE> 43
Shares, (B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of
Shares, or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, dissolution or
liquidation.
(iii) The Company shall also give written notice to the Holder at
least 30 days prior to the date on which any recapitalization,
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or
substantially all of the Company's assets, dissolution or liquidation shall
take place.
4. Purchase Rights. If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells
any options, convertible securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants,
securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of the Shares
(the "Purchase Rights"), then the Company shall grant, issue or sell (as
the case may be) to the Holder the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder
would have acquired if such Holder had held the maximum number of Shares
issuable upon complete exercise of all Warrants immediately before the date on
which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase
Rights or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders
of the Shares are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such
Purchase Rights.
5. Exchange. Prior to the Exercise Deadline the Holder shall be
entitled to exchange this Warrant Certificate with or without other Warrant
Certificates for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates for the
same aggregate number of Warrants, without charge to the Holder, upon
surrender of this Warrant Certificate at the office of the Company; provided
that such certificates may be redistributed to other Holders only in
compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. The date the
Company initially issues this Warrant Certificate shall be deemed to be the
date of issuance hereof regardless of the number of times new certificates
representing the unexpired and unexercised rights formerly represented by
this Warrant Certificate shall be issued.
6. Transfer. Prior to the Exercise Deadline the Holder shall be entitled
to transfer this Warrant Certificate and all rights hereunder, in whole or in
part, without charge to the Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant
Certificate, together with an Assignment (in the form attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference) duly executed, at the office of the Company;
provided that such transfer is in compliance with applicable federal and state
securities laws and the Holder provides documentation of such compliance to
the reasonable satisfaction of the Company. Upon any such transfer, a new
Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates representing the same aggregate
number of Warrants will be issued in accordance with instructions in the
assignment.
7. Replacement Certificates. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company (an affidavit of the Holder shall be
satisfactory) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation
of any certificate evidencing Warrants, and in the case of any such loss,
theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the
Company (provided that if the Holder is a financial institution or other
institutional investor its own agreement shall be satisfactory), or, in the
case of any such mutilation upon surrender of such certificate, the Company
shall (at its expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new
certificate of like kind representing the same rights represented by such
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated the date of
such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate.
8. General Provisions:
A. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah without regard to principles
