PARTIAL DEBT SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

This   PARTIAL   DEBT   SETTLEMENT   AGREEMENT   (this   "Agreement")   is   dated

January  9,  2017  (the  Effective  Date),  by   and  between  EMA  Financial,  LLC  (HOLDER),  a

Delaware  limited  liability company,  and  Clean Energy Technologies,  Inc.,  a Nevada  corporation

(CETY).

R E C I T A L S:

WHEREAS,  CETY  issued  a  convertible  promissory  note  in  the  principal  amount  of

$87,500.00 to the HOLDER (the Note) on or about June 6, 2016; and

WHEREAS,  as of the  Effective  Date,  the Note is  currently outstanding  in  the amount  of

$87,059.26   (the   Total  Balance),   consisting   of   $80,762.40   of   principal   and   $6,296.86   of

accrued  interest;

WHEREAS,  HOLDER  and  CETY  desire  to  settle  a  $60,941.49  portion  of  the  Total

Balance (the Settlement  Amount),  as further provided  herein.

NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of  the  premises  and  of the  terms  and  conditions

herein contained, the parties mutually agree as follows:

1.  Partial Repayment of Note.

1.1

Settlement  Price.   CETY  and  HOLDER  agree  to  settle  the Settlement  Amount,  in

exchange  for  CETYs  payment  of  $97,506.38  (the  Purchase  Price)  to  the  HOLDER  pursuant

to the  wiring  instructions set  forth in Exhibit  A  attached  hereto.   If the Purchase Price does not

clear  into  HOLDERs  bank  account  on  or  before  close  of  business  on  January  12,  2017  (the

Deadline),  then  this  Agreement  shall  be  null  and  void  at  the  sole  discretion  of  the  HOLDER,

the  Total  Balance  shall  automatically  be  multiplied  by  125%  (for  the  avoidance  of  doubt,  such

penalty  shall  be  added  to  the  Total  Balance  even  if  the  HOLDER  declares  the  Agreement  null

and  void),  and  the  HOLDER  shall  retain  all  rights  under  the  Note  with  respect  to  the  Total

Balance  and  penalty.   Upon  clearing  of the  Purchase  Price  into  HOLDERs  bank  account  by the

Deadline,  the  Settlement  Amount  shall  be  deemed  satisfied  in  full.   The  difference  of  the  Total

Balance   minus   the   Settlement   Amount,   totaling   $26,117.77   (the   Remainder   Amount)

(consisting   of   $24,228.72   of   principal   and   $1,889.05   of   accrued   interest),   shall   remain

outstanding  under  the  Note  pursuant  to  the  terms  therein.   No  provision  of this  Agreement  shall

be  construed  to  reduce  or  hinder  the  HOLDERs  rights  under  the  Note  with  respect  to  the

Remainder  Amount,  including  but  not  limited  to  HOLDERs right  to  effectuate conversion(s)  of

the Remainder Amount.
