UNSECURED PROMISSORY NOTE

$___________ Issuance Date: June ___, 2016

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, NewsBeat Social, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Maker”), with offices at 3123 NW Industrial Street, Portland, OR 97210, hereby promises to pay to ______________ or such person’s permitted assigns or successors in interest (“Payee”), the principal amount of __________ ($______), together with interest on the unpaid amount thereof, in accordance with the provisions of this Unsecured Promissory Note (this “Note”).

1.           Interest Rate. This Note shall bear simple interest on the unpaid principal amount hereunder, from the issuance date of this Note until this Note is paid in full, at a rate of 1.667% per month (20% on an annualized basis). Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year, counting the actual number of days elapsed. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the maturity date hereof, in no event shall Maker pay less than a minimum aggregate amount of $_____ of interest (being equal to 5% of the principal amount of this Note).

2.           Payment of Principal Amount and Interest on Note. This Note shall mature and Maker shall pay the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest on such amount to Payee on the “Maturity Date”, which shall be the first business day after the Company has received for its own account a minimum of $2 million of proceeds (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) from Maker’s offering of common stock (the “Reg A+ IPO”) pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). In the event the Maturity Date does not occur within one (1) year of the issuance date of this Note, the Note shall mature upon Payee’s demand. Maker may, at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty, prepay all or any portion of the outstanding obligations under this Note, including without limitation accrued but unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount.

3.           Issuance of Common Stock. On the date Payee provides Maker with the principal amount being borrowed by Maker pursuant to this Note, in further consideration of the mutual agreements being made herein, Maker shall issue to Payee ________ (_______) shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Shares”). Payee acknowledges that Maker’s underwriter for the Reg A+ IPO shall require, as a condition of the underwriter proceeding with the Reg A+ IPO, that all persons who are shareholders of Maker at or about the time of qualification of Maker’s Reg A+ IPO execute 180-day lock-up agreements substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Payee agrees that Payee shall execute such a lock-up agreement with the underwriter (the “Lock-Up Agreement”), and take any other steps that the underwriter may reasonably and customarily request of Maker’s shareholders in furtherance of the qualification and success of the Reg A+ IPO.

4.           Representations and Warranties.

(a) Maker represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, Payee as follows:

(ii)          Maker has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Note, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution, delivery and performance of this Note: (i) have been duly and validly authorized by all requisite corporate action of Maker, and (ii) no other action on the part of Maker or its directors or shareholders is necessary to authorize the execution, delivery or performance of this Note. This Note constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable against Maker in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and moratorium laws and other laws of general application affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and the fact that equitable remedies or relief (including, but not limited to, the remedy of specific performance) are subject to the discretion of the court from which such relief may be sought.

(b) Payee represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, Maker as follows:

(i)           This Note constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Payee, enforceable against Payee in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and moratorium laws and other laws of general application affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and the fact that equitable remedies or relief (including, but not limited to, the remedy of specific performance) are subject to the discretion of the court from which such relief may be sought.

(ii)          Payee is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act; Payee has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that Payee is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment contemplated hereby and can bear the economic risk of a complete loss of its investment.

(iii)         Payee did not learn of the opportunity to make the investment contemplated hereby as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising, and in particular did not become interested in such opportunity through Maker’s public filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission of Maker’s offering statement on Form 1-A for the Reg A+ IPO, or any amendment thereto or portion thereof, or any other publicity or advertising relating to the Reg A+ IPO; and Payee was familiar with Maker prior to being contacted by Maker about the investment contemplated hereby.

(iv)         Payee understands that this Note and the Shares being acquired by Payee pursuant to Section 3 hereof are “restricted” securities under the U.S. federal securities laws that may not be resold or otherwise transferred without registration under the Securities Act or reliance upon an exemption from such registration which, in the opinion of counsel (such counsel and opinion being reasonably satisfactory to Maker), is available, and in compliance with the Lock-Up Agreement.

5.           Default. An “Event of Default” shall exist hereunder if: (i) Maker fails to pay any amount (whether interest, principal or other amount) when due under this Note and such failure continues for a period of ten (10) business days after Payee gives written notice to Maker of such failure to pay; (ii) Maker shall have instituted any proceeding: (A) seeking a declaration or entailing a finding that Maker is insolvent under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, relief of debtors or protection of creditors, or any other similar law now or hereafter in effect; or (B) seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, assignee, sequestrator or other custodian for Maker or for all or any substantial part of Maker’s property; (iii) a proceeding shall have been instituted by a third party in respect of Maker: (A) seeking a declaration or entailing a finding that Maker is insolvent under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, relief of debtors or protection of creditors, or any other similar law now or hereafter in effect, and such proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days; or (B) seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, assignee, sequestrator or other custodian for Maker or for all or any substantial part of Maker’s property, and such proceeding shall result in the entry, making or grant of any such order for relief, declaration, finding, relief or appointment, and such proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days; or (iv) the winding up, liquidation or dissolution of Maker.

W.R. Hambrecht + Co., LLC

909 Montgomery Street, 3^rd Floor

San Francisco, California 94133

Re: NewsBeat Social, Inc. – Offering Statement on Form 1-A for Shares of Common Stock

Dear Sirs:

This Agreement is being delivered to you in connection with the proposed Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) between NewsBeat Social, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and W.R. Hambrecht + Co., LLC (“Hambrecht”) as the sole underwriter relating to the proposed public offering (the “Offering”) of shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company pursuant to an Offering Statement (the “Offering Statement”) on Form 1-A under Regulation A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

In order to help induce you to enter into the Underwriting Agreement, and in light of the benefits that the Offering will confer upon the undersigned in its capacity as a securityholder and/or an officer, director or employee of the Company, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees with Hambrecht that, during the period beginning on the date hereof through and including the date that is the 180^th day after the date of the Underwriting Agreement (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of Hambrecht, directly or indirectly, (i) offer, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of, or announce the intention to otherwise dispose of, any shares of Common Stock (including, without limitation, Common Stock which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act (such shares, the “Beneficially Owned Shares”)) or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable in Common Stock, (ii) enter into any swap, hedge or similar agreement or arrangement that transfers in whole or in part, the economic risk of ownership of the Beneficially Owned Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable in Common Stock, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned or with respect to which the undersigned has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition, (iii) engage in any short selling of the Common Stock, (iv) file any registration statement or offering statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the offering of any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, or (v) publicly announce an intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv). If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, the undersigned further agrees that the foregoing provisions shall be equally applicable to any issuer-directed shares of Common Stock the undersigned may purchase in the Offering.

The restrictions set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph shall not apply to:

(1)           if the undersigned is a natural person, any transfers made by the undersigned (a) as a bona fide gift, (b) to a trust the beneficiaries of which are exclusively the undersigned or members of the undersigned’s immediate family (as defined below), or (c) by will or intestate succession upon the death of the undersigned,

 A-1

(2)           if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfers to any shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of a similar equity interest in, the undersigned, as the case may be, if, in any such case, such transfer is not for value,

(3)           if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfer made by the undersigned (a) in connection with the sale or other bona fide transfer in a single transaction of all or substantially all of the undersigned’s capital stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other similar equity interests, as the case may be, or all or substantially all of the undersigned’s assets, in any such case not undertaken for the purpose of avoiding the restrictions imposed by this agreement or (b) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity so long as the transferee is an affiliate (as defined below) of the undersigned and such transfer is not for value,

(4)           if the undersigned is a trust, to the beneficiary of such trust,

(5)           by operation of law, such as pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement,

(6)           pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, or

(7)           if acquired by the undersigned in open market transactions after the Offering,

provided, however, that in the case of any transfer described in clauses (1) through (5) above, it shall be a condition to the transfer that (A) the transferee executes and delivers to Hambrecht not later than one business day prior to such transfer, a written agreement, in substantially the form of this agreement (it being understood that any references to “immediate family” in the agreement executed by such transferee shall expressly refer only to the immediate family of the undersigned and not to the immediate family of the transferee) and otherwise satisfactory in form and substance to Hambrecht, and (B) if the undersigned is required to file a report under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock or Beneficially Owned Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or Beneficially Owned Shares during the Lock-Up Period, the undersigned shall include a statement in such report to the effect that, in the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (1) above, such transfer is being made as a gift or by will or intestate succession or, in the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (2) above, such transfer is being made to a shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of a similar equity interest in, the undersigned and is not a transfer for value or, in the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (3) above, such transfer is being made either (a) in connection with the sale or other bona fide transfer in a single transaction of all or substantially all of the undersigned’s capital stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other similar equity interests, as the case may be, or all or substantially all of the undersigned’s assets or (b) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity that is an affiliate of the undersigned and such transfer is not for value. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean a spouse, child, grandchild or other lineal descendant (including by adoption), father, mother, brother or sister of the undersigned; and “affiliate” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

 A-2

The undersigned further agrees that (i) the undersigned will not, during the Lock-Up Period, make any demand or request for or exercise any right with respect to the registration or qualification under the Securities Act of any shares of Common Stock or other Beneficially Owned Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or other Beneficially Owned Shares, and (ii) the Company may, with respect to any Common Stock or other Beneficially Owned Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or other Beneficially Owned Shares owned or held (of record or beneficially) by the undersigned, cause the transfer agent or other registrar to enter stop transfer instructions and implement stop transfer procedures with respect to such securities during the Lock-Up Period. In addition, the undersigned hereby waives, from the date hereof until the expiration of the Lock-up Period, any and all rights, if any, to request or demand registration pursuant to the Securities Act of any shares of Common Stock that are registered in the name of the undersigned or that are Beneficially Owned Shares.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this agreement and that this agreement has been duly authorized (if the undersigned is not a natural person), executed and delivered by the undersigned and is a valid and binding agreement of the undersigned. The undersigned now has, and for the duration of this agreement will have, good and marketable title to the undersigned’s Beneficially Owned Shares, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims whatsoever. The undersigned understands that the Company and Hambrecht are relying on this agreement in proceeding towards consummation of the Offering. This agreement and all authority herein conferred are irrevocable and shall survive the death or incapacity of the undersigned (if a natural person) and shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the undersigned.

The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that whether or not the Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions.

If (i) the Underwriting Agreement terminates or is terminated prior to the payment for and delivery of the shares proposed for sale under the Offering Statement, (ii) either Hambrecht or the Company has advised in writing, prior to the execution of the Underwriting Agreement, that it has determined not to proceed with the Offering, or (iii) the Company notifies the undersigned in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering or withdraws the Offering Statement, then this Agreement shall terminate immediately upon such date and be of no further force or effect.

Very truly yours,
