Moy (together with its permitted successors and assigns, the "Holder") pursuant to exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. ARTICLE I. Section 1.01 Principal and Interest. For value received, on September 19, 2003, the Company hereby promises to pay to the order of the Holder in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds the principal sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars (US $10,000.00), together with interest on the unpaid principal of this Debenture at the rate of five percent (5%) per year (computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual days elapsed) from the date of this Debenture until paid. At the Company's option, the entire principal amount and all accrued interest shall be either (a) paid to the Holder on the second (2nd) year anniversary from the date hereof or (b) converted in accordance with Section 1.02 herein. Section 1.02 Optional Conversion. The Holder is entitled, at its option, to convert, and sell on the same day, at any time and from time to time, until payment in full of this Debenture, all or any part of the principal amount of the Debenture, plus accrued interest, into shares (the "Conversion Shares") of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), at the price per share (the "Conversion Price") equal to either (a) an amount equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the closing bid price of the Common Stock as listed on a Principal Market (as defined herein), as quoted by Bloomberg L.P. (the "Closing Bid Price") as of the date hereof, or (b) an amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of the average of the four (4) lowest Closing Bid Prices of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the Conversion Date (as defined herein). Subparagraphs (a) and (b) above are individually referred to as a "Conversion Price". As used herein, "Principal Market" shall mean The National Association of Securities Dealers Inc.'s Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, Nasdaq SmallCap Market, or American Stock Exchange. If the Common Stock is not traded on a Principal Market, the Closing Bid Price shall mean, the reported Closing Bid Price for the Common Stock, as furnished by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., for the applicable periods. No fraction of shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. To convert this Debenture, the Holder hereof shall deliver written notice thereof, substantially in the form of Exhibit "A" to this Debenture, with appropriate insertions (the "Conversion Notice"), to the Company at its address as set forth herein. The date upon which the conversion shall be effective (the "Conversion Date") shall be deemed to be the date set forth in the Conversion Notice. Section 1.03 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Debenture, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect such conversion, based upon the Conversion Price. If at any time the Company does not have a sufficient number of Conversion Shares authorized and available, then the Company shall call and hold a special meeting of its stockholders within sixty (60) days of that time for the sole purpose of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. Section 1.04 Right of Redemption. The Company at its option shall have the right to redeem, with thirty (30) business days advance written notice (the "Redemption Notice"), a portion of or all of the outstanding principal sum under this Debenture. The redemption price shall be equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%) multiplied by the portion of the principal sum being redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. Once the Company has issued to the Holder a Redemption Notice, the Holder may continue to convert this Debenture, in accordance with Section 1.02 hereof, for the thirty (30) day business period after the Holder receives the Redemption Notice, provided that the closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock the day prior to the Conversion Date as specified in the Conversion Notice is greater than the Closing Bid Price of the Company's Common Stock on the Closing Date. In the event the Company exercises its right of a redemption of either all or a portion of the principal sum outstanding under this Debenture, as provided for in this section, the Company shall issue to the Holder a warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase ten thousand (10,000) shares of the Company's Common Stock for every One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) of principal sum redeemed by the Company, provided the Holder shall receive a pro rata portion of Warrants if the Company redeems less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). The Warrant shall be exercisable for cash consideration only and have an exercise price of one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the closing bid price for a period of two (2) years from the issuance of the Warrant. The Warrant shall have "piggy-back" registration rights, shall be exercised on a "cash-basis". 2 Section 1.04 Registration Rights. The Company is obligated to register the resale of the Conversion Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to the terms of a Registration Rights Agreement, between the Company and the Holder dated January 27, 2003 (the "Investor Registration Rights Agreement"). Section 1.05 Guaranty. In the event of default and/or on non-performance pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement, this Convertible Debenture, the Escrow Agreement, or the Transfer Agent Agreement, this Convertible Debenture shall be immediately due and payable and repayment shall be guaranteed pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement dated January 27, 2003. Section 1.06 Interest Payments. The interest so payable will be paid at the time of maturity or conversion to the person in whose name this Debenture is registered. At the time such interest is payable, the Company, in its sole discretion, may elect to pay interest in cash (via wire transfer or certified funds) or in the form of Common Stock. In the event of default, as described in Article III Section 3.01 hereunder, the Holder may elect that the interest be paid in cash (via wire transfer or certified funds) or in the form of Common Stock. If paid in the form of Common Stock, the amount of stock to be issued will be calculated as follows: the value of the stock shall be the Closing Bid Price on: (i) the date the interest payment is due; or (ii) if the interest payment is not made when due, the date the interest payment is made. A number of shares of Common Stock with a value equal to the amount of interest due shall be issued. No fractional shares will be issued; therefore, in the event that the value of the Common Stock per share does not equal the total interest due, the Company will pay the balance in cash. Section 1.07 Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, the Company will act as paying agent and registrar. The Company may change any paying agent, registrar, or Company-registrar by giving the Holder not less than ten (10) business days' written notice of its election to do so, specifying the name, address, telephone number and facsimile number of the paying agent or registrar. The Company may act in any such capacity. Section 1.08 Subordinated Nature of Debenture. This Debenture and all payments hereon, including principal or interest, shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all accounts payable of the Company incurred in the ordinary course of business and/or bank debt of the Company not to exceed $250,000. 3 ARTICLE II. Section 2.01 Amendments and Waiver of Default. The Debenture may not be amended with the consent of the Holder. Notwithstanding the above, without the consent of the Holder, the Debenture may be amended to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for assumption of the Company obligations to the Holder or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of the Holder. ARTICLE III. Section 3.01 Events of Default. An Event of Default is defined as follows: (a) failure by the Company to pay amounts due hereunder within fifteen (15) days of the date of maturity of this Debenture; (b) failure by the Company to comply with the terms of the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions outlined in the Securities Purchase Agreement; (c) failure by the Company's transfer agent to issue Common Stock to the Holder within ten (10) days of the Company's receipt of the attached Notice of Conversion from Holder; (d) failure by the Company for ten (10) days after notice to it to comply with any of its other agreements in the Debenture; (e) events of bankruptcy or insolvency; (f) a breach by the Company of its obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement or the Investor Registration Rights Agreement which is not cured by the Company within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice thereof. Section 3.02 Failure to Issue Unrestricted Common Stock. As indicated in Article III Section 3.01, a breach by the Company of its obligations under the Investor Registration Rights Agreement shall be deemed an Event of Default, which if not cured within ten (10) days, shall entitle the Holder accelerated full repayment of all debentures outstanding. The Company acknowledges that failure to honor a Notice of Conversion shall cause irreparable harm to the Holder. ARTICLE IV. Section 4.01 Rights and Terms of Conversion.

Section 5.01 Anti-dilution. In the event that the Company shall at any time subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or shall issue a stock dividend on the outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or the issuance of such dividend shall be proportionately decreased, and in the event that the Company shall at any time combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased, effective at the close of business on the date of such subdivision, dividend or combination as the case may be.
