(b) Subscriber will give notice of its decision to exercise its right to convert a Note or part thereof by faxing an executed and completed Notice of Conversion (as defined in the Note) to the Company. The Subscriber will not be required to surrender the Note until the Note has been fully converted or satisfied. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is faxed to the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion Date. The Company will, or will cause the transfer agent to transmit, the Company's Common Stock certificates representing the Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note (and a Note representing the balance of the Note not so converted, if requested by Subscriber) to the Subscriber via express courier for receipt by such Subscriber within three 10 (3) business days after receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion (the "Delivery Date"). To the extent that a Subscriber elects not to surrender a Note for reissuance upon partial payment or conversion, the Subscriber hereby indemnifies the Company against any and all loss or damage attributable to a third-party claim in an amount in excess of the actual amount then due under the Note. (c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof, or the Mandatory Redemption Amount described in Section 9.2 hereof, beyond the Delivery Date or Mandatory Redemption Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) could result in economic loss to the Subscriber. As compensation to the Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to the Subscriber for late issuance of Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof upon conversion of the Note or late payment of the Mandatory Redemption Amount, in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date or Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, as the case may be, for each $10,000 of Note principal amount being converted or redeemed. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand. Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Subscriber, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Shares by the Delivery Date or make payment by the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, the Subscriber will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Notice of Conversion or rescind all or part of the notice of Mandatory Redemption by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and the Subscriber shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice, except that late payment charges described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company. (d) Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to the Subscriber and thus refunded to the Company. 9.2 Mandatory Redemption. In the event the Company is prohibited from -------------------- issuing Shares (except by reason of the limitations set forth in Section 9.3 hereof), fails to timely deliver Shares on a Delivery Date or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Note, after applicable notice and cure periods, then at the Subscriber's election, the Company must pay to the Subscriber five (5) business days after request by the Subscriber or on the Delivery Date (if requested by the Subscriber prior to a Delivery Date), a sum of money determined by multiplying the principal amount of the Note designated by the Subscriber by 130%, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon ("Mandatory Redemption Payment"). The Mandatory Redemption Payment must be received by the Subscriber on the same date as the Company Shares otherwise deliverable or within five (5) business days after request, whichever is sooner ("Mandatory Redemption Payment Date"). Upon receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, the corresponding Note principal and interest will be deemed paid and no longer outstanding, and any obligation to deliver Shares with respect to conversion of the redeemed portion of the Note shall be extinguished. In the event the Company does not have sufficient cash available to pay the Mandatory Redemption Payment, but the Company has available to it the right to draw on any equity line of credit, bank line of credit, put or other arrangement, then the Company must exercise its right to draw on these alternative cash sources so as to obtain funds to pay the Mandatory Redemption Payment. 9.3 Maximum Conversion. The Subscriber shall not be entitled to convert ------------------ on a Conversion Date that amount of the Note in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Subscriber and its affiliates on a Conversion Date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the 11 conversion of the Note with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made on a Conversion Date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Subscriber and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company on such Conversion Date. For the purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. Subject to the foregoing, the Subscriber shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of only 4.99%. The Subscriber may void the conversion limitation described in this Section 9.3 with seventy-five (75) days prior written notice to the Company. The Subscriber may allocate which of the equity of the Company deemed beneficially owned by the Subscriber shall be included in the 4.99% amount described above and which shall be allocated to the excess above 4.99%. 9.4 Injunction - Posting of Bond. The Company may not refuse conversion ---------------------------- of a Note based on any claim that such Subscriber or any one associated or affiliated with such Subscriber has been engaged in any violation of law, breach of contract, or for any other reason, unless, an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of said Note shall have been sought and obtained and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of 130% of the amount of the Note, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains judgment. 9.5 Buy-In. In addition to any other rights available to the Subscriber, ------ if the Company fails to deliver to the Subscriber such shares issuable upon conversion of a Note by the Delivery Date and if after the Delivery Date the Subscriber purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Subscriber of the Common Stock which the Subscriber anticipated receiving upon such conversion (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Subscriber) the amount by which (A) the Subscriber's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate principal and/or interest amount of the Note for which such conversion was not timely honored, together with interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum, accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if the Subscriber purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of $10,000 of note principal and/or interest, the Company shall be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. The Subscriber shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In. 9.6 Optional Redemption. The Company will have the option of redeeming any ------------------- outstanding Note ("Optional Redemption") by paying to the Subscriber a sum of money equal to 125% of the principal amount of the portion of the Note described below together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any and all other sums due, accrued or payable to the Subscriber arising under this Subscription Agreement, Note or any other document delivered herewith ("Redemption Amount") outstanding on the day notice of redemption ("Notice of Redemption) is given to a Subscriber ("Redemption Date"). A Notice of Redemption must be given, if at all, within two hours of the delivery to the Company by facsimile of a Conversion Notice but only in connection with a portion of Note for which notice of conversion has been given by the Subscriber employing the Conversion Price described in Section 2.1(b)(ii) of the Note. The Subscriber may elect within five (5) business days after receipt of a Notice of Redemption to give the Company Notice of Conversion in connection with some or all of the Note principal and interest which was the subject of the Notice of Redemption provided the Conversion Price elected by the Subscriber is the Maximum Base Price set forth in Section 2.1(b)(i) of the Note. A Notice of Redemption must be accompanied by a certificate signed by the chief executive officer or chief financial officer of the Company stating that the Company has on deposit and segregated ready funds 12 equal to the Redemption Amount. The Redemption Amount must be paid in good funds to the Subscriber no later than the fifth (5th) business day after the Redemption Date ("Optional Redemption Payment Date"). In the event the Company fails to pay the Redemption Amount by the Optional Redemption Payment Date, then the Redemption Notice will be null and void and the Company will thereafter have no further right to effect an Optional Redemption, and at the Subscription's election, the Redemption Amount will be deemed a Mandatory Redemption Payment and the Optional Redemption Payment Date will be deemed a Mandatory Redemption Payment Date. Such failure will also be deemed an Event of Default under the Note. A Notice of Redemption may be given by the Company, provided (i) no Event of Default, as described in the Note, shall have occurred; and (ii) the Company Shares issuable upon conversion of the full outstanding Note principal are included for unrestricted resale in a registration statement effective as of the Redemption Date. Purchase Price proceeds may not be used to effect an Optional Redemption. 9.7 Redemption. The Company may not redeem the Securities without ---------- the consent of the holder of the Securities except as otherwise set forth herein. 10.1 Registration Rights. The Company hereby grants the following ------------------- registration rights to holders of the Securities. (i) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the 1933 Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders or both, except with respect to registration statements on Forms S-4, S-8 or another form not available for registering the Company Shares issued and issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants (the Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Securities [which includes the Notes, Finder's Notes, Warrants, and Finder's Warrants] and securities issued or issuable by virtue of ownership of the Securities being, the "Registrable Securities"), for sale to the public, provided the Registrable Securities are not otherwise registered for resale by the Subscriber or Holder pursuant to an effective registration statement, each such time it will give at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the record holder of the Registrable Securities of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of the holder, received by the Company within thirty (30) days after the giving of any such notice by the Company, to register any of the Registrable Securities, the Company will cause such Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included with the securities to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent required to permit the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered by the holder of such Registrable Securities (the "Seller"). A request for registration pursuant to this Section 10.1(i) shall be deemed to have been made in connection with any registration statement filed after the Closing Date. (ii) The Company shall file with the Commission within forty-five (45) days of the Closing Date (the "Filing Date"), and use its reasonable commercial efforts to cause to be declared effective, within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, a Form SB-2 registration statement in order to register the Registrable Securities for resale and distribution under the 1933 Act. The registration statement described in this paragraph must be declared effective by the Commission within one hundred twenty (120) days of the Closing Date (as defined herein) ("Effective Date"). The Company will register not less than a number of shares of Common Stock in the aforedescribed registration statement that is equal to 200% of the Company Shares issuable at the Conversion Price that would be in effect on the Closing Date or the date of filing of such registration statement (employing the Conversion Price (as defined in the Note) which would result in the greater number of Shares), assuming the conversion of 100% of the Note which are included in the Registrable Securities and one share of Common Stock for each Common Share issuable upon exercise of the Warrants included in the Registrable Securities. The Registrable Securities shall be reserved and set aside exclusively for the benefit of the Subscriber, and not issued, employed or reserved for anyone other than the Subscriber. Such registration statement will be 13 promptly amended or additional registration statements will be promptly filed by the Company as necessary to register additional Company Shares to allow the public resale of all Common Stock included in and issuable by virtue of the Registrable Securities. 10.2 Registration Procedures. In connection with the registration ----------------------- of the Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible: (a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided), and promptly provide to the holders of Registrable Securities ("Sellers") copies of all filings and Commission letters of comment; (b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until the latest of: (i) twelve (12) months after the Maturity Date (as defined in the Note) of the Note; (ii) two (2) years after the Closing Date; or (iii) six (6) months after the latest exercise period of the Warrants, and comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with the Seller's intended method of disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period; (c) furnish to the Seller, and to each underwriter if any, such number of copies of the registration statement and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably may request in order to facilitate the public sale or their disposition of the securities covered by such registration statement; (d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Seller's Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the Seller and in the case of an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter shall reasonably request, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction; (e) list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange or other trading market, venue or service on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed; (f) immediately notify the Seller and each underwriter under such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing; and (g) make available for inspection by the Seller, any underwriter participating in any distribution pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Seller or underwriter, all publicly available, non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all publicly available, non-confidential information reasonably requested by the Seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement. 14 10.3 Provision of Documents. In connection with each registration ---------------------- hereunder, the Seller will furnish to the Company in writing such information and representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws. In connection with each registration pursuant to Section 10.1(i) covering an underwritten public offering, the Company and the Seller agree to enter into a written agreement with the managing underwriter in such form and containing such provisions as are reasonable and customary in the securities business for such an arrangement between such underwriter and companies of the Company's size and investment stature. 10.4 Non-Registration Events. The Company and the Subscriber agree ----------------------- that the Seller will suffer damages if any registration statement required under Section 10.1(i) above is not filed within sixty (60) days after written request by the Holder and not declared effective by the Commission within one hundred twenty (120) days after such request (or the Filing Date and Effective Date, respectively, in reference to the registration statement on Form SB-2 to be filed pursuant to Section 10.1(ii)), and maintained in the manner and within the time periods contemplated by Section 10 hereof, and it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, if (i) the registration statement described in Sections 10.1(i) is not filed within sixty (60) days of such written request, or is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days after such request, or (ii) the registration statement on Form SB-2 is not filed on or before the Filing Date or not declared effective on or before the sooner of the Effective Date, or within five (5) days of receipt by the Company of a communication from the Commission that the registration statement described in Section 10.1(ii) will not be reviewed or (iii) any registration statement described in Sections 10.1(i) or 10.1(ii) is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective (without being succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and declared effective) for a period of time which shall exceed thirty (30) days in the aggregate per year but not more than twenty (20) consecutive calendar days (defined as a period of three hundred sixty-five (365) days commencing on the date the registration statement is declared effective) (each such event referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 10.4 is referred to herein as a "Non-Registration Event"), then, for so long as such Non-Registration Event shall continue, the Company shall pay in cash as liquidated damages to each holder of any Registrable Securities an amount equal to 1% per thirty (30) days for the first thirty (30) days or part thereof and 2% for each thirty (30) days or part thereof, thereafter, during the pendency of such Non-Registration Event, of the principal of the Note issued, whether or not converted owned of record by such holder or issuable as of or subsequent to the occurrence of such Non-Registration Event. Payments to be made pursuant to this Section 10.4 shall be due and payable immediately upon demand in immediately available funds. In the event a Mandatory Redemption Payment is demanded from the Company by the Holder pursuant to Section 9.2 of this Subscription Agreement, then the liquidated damages described in this Section 10.4 shall no longer accrue on the portion of the Purchase Price underlying the Mandatory Redemption Payment, from and after the date the Holder receives the Mandatory Redemption Payment. It shall also be deemed a Non-Registration Event to the extent that an amount equal to 120% of all the Common Stock underlying the Registrable Securities is not included in an effective registration statement as of and at any time after forty-five (45) days after the Effective Date, at the Conversion Prices in effect from and after the Effective Date. 10.5 Expenses. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with -------- Section 10, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or "blue sky" laws, fees of the NASD, transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars, and costs of insurance are called "Registration Expenses." All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities, including any fees and disbursements of any special counsel to the Seller, are called "Selling Expenses." The Seller shall pay the fees of its own additional counsel, if any. The 15 Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration statement under Section 10. All Selling Expenses in connection with each registration statement under Section 10 shall be borne by the Seller and may be apportioned among the Sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold by the Seller relative to the number of shares sold under such registration statement or as all Sellers thereunder may agree. 10.6 Indemnification and Contribution. -------------------------------- (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Subscriber, each officer of the Subscriber (or other person servicing in a similar capacity), each director of the Subscriber (or other person serving in a similar capacity), each underwriter of such Registrable Securities thereunder and each other person, if any, who controls such Subscriber or underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Subscriber, or such underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities was registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 10, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Subscriber, and each of the Subscriber's officers, directors and other persons serving in similar capacities, each such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to the Subscriber, and each of the Subscriber's officers, directors and other persons serving in similar capacities, to the extent that any such damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus if (i) the Subscriber failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus delivered by the Company to the Subscriber with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by the Subscriber to the person asserting the claim from which such damages arise, (ii) the final prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission or (iii) to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such Subscriber, or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus. (b) The Subscriber will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act, each officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director of the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 10, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that the Subscriber will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue 16 statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to such Subscriber, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such Subscriber specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus, and provided, further, however, that the liability of the Subscriber hereunder shall be limited to the gross proceeds received by the Subscriber from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party other than under this Section 10.6(c) and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 10.6(c), except and only if and to the extent the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 10.6(c) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred. (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the event of joint liability under the 1933 Act in any case in which either (i) the Subscriber, or any controlling person of the Subscriber, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.6 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 10.6 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the 1933 Act may be required on the part of the Subscriber or controlling person of the Subscriber in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 10.6; then, and in each such case, the Company and the Subscriber will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that the Subscriber is responsible only for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in any such case, (y) the Subscriber will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such securities offered by it pursuant to such registration statement; and (z) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the 1933 Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 11.

23 EXHIBIT A FORM OF NOTE THIS NOTE AND THE COMMON SHARES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THIS NOTE AND THE COMMON SHARES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THIS NOTE UNDER SAID ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO ADVANCED AERODYNAMICS & STRUCTURES, INC. THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED. CONVERTIBLE NOTE ---------------- FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ADVANCED AERODYNAMICS & STRUCTURES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Borrower"), hereby promises to pay to ______________________________________________________________________ (the "Holder") or order, without demand, the sum of ______________________ ($__________), with simple interest accruing at the annual rate of eight percent (8%), on October 26, 2006 (the "Maturity Date"). The following terms shall apply to this Note: ARTICLE 1 PAYMENT RELATED PROVISIONS 1.1. Payment Grace Period. The Borrower shall have a ten (10) day grace -------------------- period to pay any monetary amounts due under this Note, after which grace period a default interest rate of ten percent (10%) per annum shall apply to the amounts owed hereunder. 1.2. Conversion Privileges. The Conversion Privileges set forth in ---------------------- Article II shall remain in full force and effect commencing 120 days from the date hereof and until the Note is paid in full. 1.3. Interest Rate. Subject to the Holder's right to convert, interest ------------- payable on this Note shall accrue at the annual rate of eight percent (8%) and be payable September 30, 2002 and semi-annually thereafter, and on the Maturity Date, accelerated or otherwise, when the principal and remaining accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable, or sooner as described below. Interest may be paid by the Company by delivery of an amount of Common Stock of the Company calculated by dividing the amount of interest payable on an interest due date by the Conversion Price (defined below) in effect on such interest due date. ARTICLE 2 CONVERSION RIGHTS The Holder shall have the right to convert the principal amount and interest due under this Note into Shares of the Borrower's Common Stock as set forth below. 2.1. Conversion into the Borrower's Common Stock. ------------------------------------------- 24 (a) The Holder shall have the right from and after 120 days after the issuance of this Note and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note, and/or at the Holder's election, the interest accrued on the Note, (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being a "Conversion Date") into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class A common stock of Borrower as such stock exists on the date of issuance of this Note, or any shares of capital stock of Borrower into which such stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified (the "Common Stock") at the conversion price, as defined in Section 2.1(b) hereof (the "Conversion Price"), determined as provided herein. Upon delivery to the Company of a Notice of Conversion, as described in Section 9 of the subscription agreement entered into between the Company and Holder relating to this Note (the "Subscription Agreement"), the terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference, of the Holder's written request for conversion, Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder within three (3) business days from the Conversion Date that number of shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in accordance with the foregoing. At the election of the Holder, the Company will deliver accrued but unpaid interest on the Note through the Conversion Date directly to the Holder on or before the Delivery Date (as defined in the Subscription Agreement). The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the principal (and interest, at the election of the Holder) of the Note to be converted, by the Conversion Price. (b) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.1(c) hereof, the Conversion Price per share shall be at the election of the Holder: (i) $.35 ("Maximum Base Price"); or (ii) seventy percent (70%) of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices for the Common Stock for the thirty (30) trading days prior to but not including the Conversion Date, on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board, NASDAQ SmallCap Market, NASDAQ National Market System, American Stock Exchange or New York Stock Exchange (whichever of the foregoing is at the time the principal trading exchange or market for the Common Stock, the "Principal Market"), or if not then trading on a Principal Market, such other principal market or exchange where the Common Stock is listed or traded. If the Principal Market does not report bid prices, then the closing price shall be substituted for the bid price referred to in this Section 2.1(b)(ii) when determining the Conversion Price. (c) The Maximum Base Price described in Section 2.1(b)(i) above and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and 2.1(b), shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as follows: (A) Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall consolidate with or merge into or sell or convey all or substantially all its assets to any other corporation, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable on account of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, upon or with respect to the securities subject to the conversion or purchase right immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to successive transactions of a similar nature by any such successor or purchaser. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the anti-dilution provisions of this Section shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser after any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. 25 (B) Reclassification, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification or other change. (C) Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event. (D) Share Issuance. Subject to the provisions of this Section, if the Borrower at any time shall issue any shares of Common Stock prior to the conversion of the entire principal amount of the Note (otherwise than as: (i) provided in Sections 2.1(c)A, 2.1(c)B or 2.1(c)C or this subparagraph D; or (ii) pursuant to options, warrants or other obligations to issue shares, outstanding on the date hereof or proposed to be issued as described in the Reports and Other Written Information [(i) and (ii) above are hereinafter referred to as the "Existing Option Obligations"]) for a consideration less than the Conversion Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issue, the Conversion Price shall be reduced as follows: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue shall be multiplied by the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issue and the product shall be added to the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Borrower upon such issue of additional shares of Common Stock; and (ii) the sum so obtained shall be divided by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue. The resulting quotient shall be the adjusted Conversion Price. Except for the Existing Option Obligations, for purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security of the Borrower carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights. (d) From and after the issuance date of this Note and for the remaining period during which the conversion right exists, Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note. 2.2 Method of Conversion. This Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or -------------------- in part as described in Section 2.1(a) hereof and the Subscription Agreement. Upon partial conversion of 26 this Note, if requested by the Holder, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the remaining principal balance of this Note and interest which shall not have been converted or paid. ARTICLE 3 EVENT OF DEFAULT The occurrence of any of the following events of default ("Event of Default") shall, at the option of the Holder hereof, make all sums of principal and interest then remaining unpaid hereon and all other amounts payable hereunder immediately due and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, or grace period, all of which hereby are expressly waived, except as set forth below: 3.1. Failure to Pay Principal or Interest. The Borrower fails to pay any ------------------------------------ installment of principal or interest hereon when due and such failure continues for a period of ten (10) days after the due date.

The Borrower breaches any material covenant or ------------------ other term or condition of this Note in any material respect and such breach, if subject to cure, continues for a period of seven (7) days after written notice to the Borrower from the Holder. 3.3. Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any material representation ---------------------------------------- or warranty of the Borrower made herein, in the Subscription Agreement entered into by the Holder and Borrower in connection with this Note, or in any agreement, statement or certificate given in writing pursuant hereto or in connection therewith shall be false or misleading in any material respect. 3.4. Receiver or Trustee. The Borrower shall make an assignment for the ------------------- benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee for it or for a substantial part of its property or business; or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be appointed. 3.5.

A Securities and Exchange Commission stop trade order or ---------- Principal Market trading suspension for longer than five (5) trading days. 3.9. Failure to Deliver Common Stock or Replacement Note.

Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver.

The word "None" when used herein denotes that no exception is taken to the particular representation or warranty. Sections 2(b) and (e): The Company has agreed to issue 1,000,000 shares of ---------------------- Class A common stock to a public relations firm in exchange for services to help the Company increase its exposure to the public and financial arenas. Further, the Company has entered into a Consulting Agreement with a group of consultants who will assist and consult with the Company regarding investment banking and communications with existing shareholders, brokers, dealers and other investment professionals. In return for their services, the Company has agreed to issue Class A common stock in an amount equal to 12% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company. The Company has agreed to issue and deliver such shares to the consultants at the earlier of 75 days following the Company's receipt of an amended Type Certificate from the Federal Aviation Administration for its JETCRUZER 500 or by October 2003. The consultants may, however, accelerate the final issue date one or more times, on not less than 10 days prior notice to the Company, as to some or all of the shares. Certain investors ("Holders") who are holders of convertible notes and Series A Preferred Stock of the Company ("Holders Securities") have entered into a Lockup Agreement for the benefit of certain other investors in the Company ("Investors") who are also holders of convertible notes and Series A Preferred Stock of the Company ("Investors Securities") pursuant to which the Holders have agreed that they may not transfer, or exercise any conversion rights of, any of the Holders Securities until the sooner of (i) the date one or more Holders have purchased for $800,000, from the Investors, Investors Securities and/or, at the election of each Investor, any other notes or preferred stock issued to Investors by the Company having principal or stated value, as the case may be, of $600,000, or (ii) the date that each Investor has exercised conversion rights relating to the Investors Securities and has received the Company's Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of such conversion rights in a certain amount to be determined by multiplying the closing bid price on each conversion date by the number of Class A common stock of the Company received by the Investor on the conversion date, which certain amount may be increased by the Proportionate Share (as defined in the Put Agreement noted below) for which the Company may exercise its Put rights for each Investor. Notwithstanding the above, Holders may convert Holders Securities in an amount equal to the Holder's proportionate share, as defined in the Put Agreement discussed below, as of each conversion date. The Company intends to enter into a Subscription Agreement pursuant to which certain investors will acquire from $100,000 to $5,000,000 of 8% Convertible Notes convertible into shares of Class A common stock and Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrants, 50% of which are exercisable into shares 31 of Class A common stock at $0.25 per share and 50% of which are exercisable into shares of Class A common stock at $0.30 per share. The Company may in the future issue options to purchase up to 13% of its outstanding common stock to its executive management and may authorize additional options to purchase up to 1.5 million shares of its common stock to its employees. The Company intends to authorize a Stock Plan, pursuant to which shares of common stock may be issued in compensation to its employees. Furthermore, Luce, Forward, Hamilton & Scripps, LLP has agreed to accept 380,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock, with customary piggyback registration rights, in lieu of payment of $38,000 in legal fees. Section 2(i) Litigation: A potential litigation may stem from an individual ------------------------ who holds 235,000 warrants to purchase Class A common stock of the Company. The individual has complained that Company management misled investors with respect to the timing of the plane's availability for sale and is seeking reimbursement of $711,000. The individual has previously informed the Company that an individual action, or a class action suit on behalf of all warrant holders, will be filed if the individual's claim for reimbursement was not resolved by Monday, October 15, 2001. No filing has occurred to date. The individual has recently informed the Company that a filing will occur if the individual's claim is not resolved by Friday, March 29, 2002. As of March 26, 2002, the Company has not made any reimbursement to the individual. The Company extended the expiration date of the warrants from the already extended date of January 15, 2002 until May 31, 2002. On January 17, 2002, the Company was served with notice of a lawsuit filed by a vendor to the Company on December 27, 2001, claiming damages in the amount of approximately $95,200. The Company is currently in settlement negotiations regarding this lawsuit. A lawsuit filed by a vendor of the Company for which notice was served on the Company on February 14, 2002, has been settled for the amount of the $35,000 claim. Section 2(o) Defaults: As of December 31, 2001, the Company was in default ---------------------- under certain convertible notes issued by the Company on March 23, 2001 (collectively referred to as the "March Notes") for failure to make required interest payments within 10 days of June 30, 2001, September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001. As of December 31, 2001, the Company has accrued approximately $295,000 in interest due to the note holders, none of which has been paid. The Company hopes to obtain waivers from the holders of the Notes waiving their right to make all other amounts payable under the Notes immediately due and payable and each holder of the Notes will be offered an opportunity to receive such interest payments in Class A common stock of the Company. Interest payments will continue to become due under the Notes for as long as the Notes remain outstanding and, in the event the holders of the Notes elect not to accept the payment of interest in the form of Class A common stock of the Company, the Company may continue to default on such interest payments. The Company is currently in default regarding various registration rights provisions contained in agreements entered into by the Company and various purchasers of securities which are convertible or exercisable into Class A common stock of the Company. Under these registration rights provisions, the Company was obligated to register the shares of Class A common stock into which the securities are convertible or exercisable. Under these registration rights provisions, the Company is to pay in cash as liquidated damages to each holder of the securities which have not been registered, an amount equal to 1% per thirty (30) days for the first thirty (30) days or part thereof and 2% for each thirty (30) days or part thereof, thereafter, of the principal of the Note issued, until registration is accomplished. The Company believes it will be able to reach an agreement with the securities purchasers whereby they will waive the Company's registration defaults and hopes to eliminate the liquidation provisions for the Company's prior failure to comply with is registration obligations. 32 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this disclosure schedule effective as of the date below.

The Company agrees ------------------------------------------------ that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full 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 as such holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise. 2.2. Cashless Exercise. ----------------- (a) Payment may be made either in (i) cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company equal to the applicable aggregate Purchase Price, (ii) by delivery of Warrants, Common Stock and/or Common Stock receivable upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with Section (b) below or (iii) by a combination of any of the foregoing methods, for the number of Common Shares specified in such form (as such exercise number shall be adjusted to reflect any adjustment in the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the holder per the terms of this Warrant) and the holder shall thereupon be entitled to receive the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) determined as provided herein. (b) Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Purchase Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, upon consent of the Company, the holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Subscription Form in which event the Company shall issue to the holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula: X=Y (A-B) ------- A Where X= the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder Y= the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation) A= the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company's Common Stock (at the date of such calculation) B= Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation) (c) The cashless exercise feature of this Warrant may be employed only commencing on the first anniversary of the Issue Date of the Warrant and then only if a Non-Registration Event (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) has occurred and is continuing on such date or occurs after such date. 3. Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc. ---------------------------------------------------------- 3.1. Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case at any time ------------------------------------------ or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4. 3.2. Dissolution. In the event of any dissolution of the Company ----------- following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the holders of the Warrants after the effective date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust company having its principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the holder or holders of the Warrants. 3.3. Continuation of Terms. Upon any reorganization, consolidation, --------------------- merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4. In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transaction described in this Section 3, then only in such event will the Company's securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the holders of the Warrants be delivered to the Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2. 4. Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock. In the event that the ------------------------------------------- Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be increased to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise. 5. Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of any adjustment or ----------------------------- readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding and (c) the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant.

In no event may the Company exercise the Warrant Call at any time unless the Warrant Shares to be delivered upon exercise of the Warrant, will be upon delivery, immediately resalable, without restrictive legend and upon such resale freely transferable on the transfer books of the Company. (c) Unless otherwise agreed to by the Holder of this Warrant, the Call Notice must be given to all Warrant Holders who receive Warrants similar to this Warrant (in terms of exercise price and other principal terms) on or about the same issue date as this Warrant in proportion to the amounts of Common Stock which can be purchased by the respective Warrant Holders in accordance with the respective Warrant held by each. (d) The Company may give a Call Notice in connection with up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant provided the closing bid price of the Common Stock, as reported on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board, NASDAQ National Market, NASDAQ SmallCap Market, American Stock Exchange or New York Stock Exchange (whichever of the foregoing is, at the time, the principal trading exchange or market for the Common Stock, the "Principal Market"), of if not then trading on a Principal Market, such other principal market or exchange where the Common Stock is listed or traded for the thirty (30) trading days prior to but not including the date of the Call Notice, for each trading day during the thirty (30) trading days prior to the giving of the Call Notice ("Lookback Period") is two hundred percent (200%) of the Purchase Price and the average daily trading volume of the Common Stock during the Lookback Period is not less than one hundred fifty thousand (150,000) Common Shares.
