ARTICLE I.

PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST

 

Section 1.1 For value received, Maker promises to pay to Holder at such place as Holder or its assigns may designate in writing, in currently available funds of the United States, the Principal Amount of Three Hundred Seventy Seven Thousand Six Hundred Thirty Three Dollars. Maker’s obligation under this Note shall accrue interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date hereof until paid in full. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year or 366-day year, as applicable, and actual days lapsed. Accrual of interest shall commence on the first business day to occur after the Issue Date and continue until payment in full of the Principal Amount has been made or duly provided for.

Section 1.2

 

a.       All payments shall be applied first to interest, then to principal and shall be credited to the Maker's account on the date that such payment is physically received by the Holder.

 

b.       All principal and accrued interest then outstanding shall be due and payable by the Maker to the Holder on or before May 15, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”).

 

c.       Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of the principal under this Note.

 

d.       This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Maker and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.

 

Section 1.3 This Note is issued in exchange solely for Holder’s surrender of the Convertible Notes previously issued by Maker, and subsequently acquired by Holder, as specifically listed on Schedule A hereto, each of which represents amounts due and owing by Maker to the original holder thereof as of at least twelve months prior to the date of this Note, and for no other consideration from Holder. All obligations of Maker to Holder, as represented in the Convertible Notes listed in Schedule A hereto, are replaced and superseded in their entirety by the terms of this Note.

 

Section 1.4. The Principal Amount of this Note shall be prorated based on the amount of Convertible Notes previously issued by Maker, as specifically listed in Schedule A hereto, that have actually been purchased by Holder, such that the Maker shall only be required to repay that prorated portion of the Principal Amount pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note.

ARTICLE II.

CONVERSION RIGHTS; CONVERSION PRICE

 

Section 2.1 Conversion. The Holder or its assigns shall have the right, from time to time, commencing on the Issuance Date of this Note, to convert any part of the outstanding interest or Principal Amount of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Maker (the “Notice Shares”) at the Conversion Price determined as provided herein. Promptly after delivery to Maker of a Notice of Conversion of Convertible Note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1, or any other form provided by the Holder, properly completed and duly executed by the Holder or its assigns (a “Conversion Notice”), the Maker shall issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder that number of shares of Common Stock for the that portion of this Note to be converted as shall be determined in accordance herewith.

 

No fraction of a share or scrip representing a fraction of a share will be issued on conversion of the Note, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. The date on which Notice of Conversion is given (the “Conversion Date”) shall be deemed to be the date on which the Holder faxes, mails or emails the Notice of Conversion duly executed to the Maker. Certificates representing Common Stock upon conversion will be delivered to the Holder within two (2) trading days from the date the Notice of Conversion is delivered to the Maker. Delivery of shares upon conversion shall be made to the address specified by the Holder or its assigns in the Notice of Conversion.

 

Section 2.2. Conversion Price. Upon any conversion of this Note, the Conversion Price shall be equal to the lesser of a) $0.01 or b) Fifty Percent (50%) (“Conversion Price Discount”) of the lowest Trading Price (as defined below) during the Valuation Period (defined below), and the Conversion Amount shall be the amount of principal or interest electively converted in the Conversion Notice. The total number of shares due under any conversion notice (“Notice Shares”) will be equal to the Conversion Amount divided by the Conversion Price.

 

On the date that a Conversion Notice is delivered to Holder, the Company shall deliver an estimated number of shares (“Estimated Shares”) to Holder’s brokerage account equal to the Conversion Amount divided by the product of the Conversion Price Discount and (ii) the lowest Trading Price in the twenty trading days prior to the day the Holder requests conversion.

 

The “Valuation Period” shall mean twenty (20) Trading Days, commencing on the first Trading Day following delivery and clearing of the Notice Shares in Holder’s brokerage account, as reported by Holder (“Valuation Start Date”). If at any time, one or multiple times, during the Valuation Period the sum of Estimated Shares and Additional Shares already delivered to Holder is less than the Notice Shares, the company must immediately deliver enough shares equal to the difference (“Additional Shares”). A Conversion Amount will not be considered fully converted until the end of the Valuation Period for that Conversion Amount, as decreases in the Conversion Price would require the issuance of more Additional Shares, and thereby the issuance of more Notice Shares.

 

“Trading Price” means, for any security as of any date, any trading price on the OTC Bulletin Board, or other applicable trading market (the “OTCBB”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) mutually acceptable to Maker and Holder (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTCBB is not the principal trading market for such security, the price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded. “Trading Day” shall mean any business day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTCBB, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded. The Conversion Price Discount is adjustable for the following conditions:(i) the Maker experiences DTC “Chill” on its shares, (ii) the Maker’s stock is NOT DWAC/FAST eligible, (iii) if the Maker is not an SEC Reporting Issuer, or (iv) the Maker has a “Yield” or “Stop” Sign on OTC Markets at the time the Holder elects to convert the Note (collectively, the “Conditions”). If any of these Conditions are present, the Conversion Price Discount shall have 7 percentage points subtracted from it for each Condition.

Section 2.3. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition of Assets. In case the Maker shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Maker is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Maker), redeem or repurchase more than a de minimis number of shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of Maker, or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (“Other Property”), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Maker, then Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon conversion of this Note, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Maker, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note is convertible immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Maker) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Note to be performed and observed by the Maker and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Maker) in order to provide for adjustments of the number of shares of common stock into which this Note is convertible which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 2.3(a). For purposes of this Section 2.3(a), “common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation” shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3(a) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.

 

Section 2.4. Restrictions on Securities. This Note has been issued by the Maker pursuant to the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). None of this Note or the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may be offered, sold or otherwise transferred unless (i) they first shall have been registered under the Act and applicable state securities laws or (ii) the Maker shall have been furnished with an opinion of legal counsel (in form, substance and scope reasonably acceptable to Maker) to the effect that such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Act. Each certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note that have not been so registered and that have not been sold pursuant to an exemption that permits removal of the applicable legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:

 

THIS INSTRUMENT AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE CONVERSION HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”). THEYMAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR UPON RECEIPT BY THE COMPANY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNER THE ACT.

 

Upon the request of a Holder of a certificate representing any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, the Maker shall remove the foregoing legend from the certificate or issue to such Holder a new certificate free of any transfer legend, if (a) with such request, the Maker shall have received an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Maker in form, substance and scope, to the effect that any such legend may be removed from such certificate or (b) a registration statement under the Act covering such securities is currently in effect.

 

Section 2.5. Reservation of Common Stock.

 

(a)       The Maker covenants that during the period the Note is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock of the Maker upon the Conversion of the Note. The Maker shall continuously monitor its compliance with the share reservation requirements and, if and to the extent necessary to increase the number of reserved shares to remain and be in compliance with such reservation requirements and immediately notify the Transfer Agent in writing of the reservation of such additional shares.

 

 

 

 

 3 

 

 

The Maker further covenants that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock of the Maker issuable upon the conversion of this Note. The Maker will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such shares of Common Stock may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the OTC Bulletin Board (or such other principal market upon which the Common Stock of the Maker may be listed or quoted).

 

(b)       The Maker shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Maker will (a) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note above the amount payable therefor upon such conversion immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Maker may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note, and (c) use its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Maker to perform its obligations under this Note.

 

(c)       Upon the request of Holder, the Maker will at any time during the period this Note is outstanding acknowledge in writing, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, the continuing validity of this Note and the obligations of the Maker hereunder.

 

(d)      Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the current Conversion Price below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, the Maker shall take any corporate action which may be necessary in order that the Maker may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of such Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Price.

 

(e)      Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note is convertible or in the Conversion Price, the Maker shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

(f)      If at any time the Maker does not have a sufficient number of authorized and available shares of Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of the Note, then the Maker shall call and hold a special meeting of its stockholders within forty-five (45) days of that time for the sole purpose of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock.

 

Section 2.6. Maximum Conversion.

 

The Holder shall not be entitled to convert on a Conversion Date that amount of the Notes 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 Holder and its affiliates on Conversation Date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes with respect to which the determination of this provision is being made on a Conversion Date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its Affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company on such Conversion Date. For the purposes of the provision to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder.

 

Section 2.7 Failure to Deliver Notice Shares. If, in the case of any Notice of Conversion, such Notice Shares are not delivered to or as directed by the Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to rescind such Conversion, in which event the Maker shall promptly return to the Holder any original Note delivered to the Maker.

A copy of the Notes is attached hereto. You should familiarize yourself with your issuance and delivery obligations, as Transfer Agent, contained therein. The shares to be issued are to be registered in the names of the registered holder of the securities submitted for conversion or exercise.

 

You are hereby irrevocably authorized and instructed to reserve a sufficient number of shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) of the Company (initially, 80,000,000 shares of Common Stock for the subject Notes) for issuance upon full conversion of the convertible promissory notes referenced herein in accordance with the terms thereof.

 

The ability to convert the Notes in a timely manner is a material obligation of the Company pursuant to the Agreement and the Notes. Your firm is hereby irrevocably authorized and instructed to issue shares of Common Stock of the Company (without any restrictive legend) to the Investor without any further action or confirmation by the Company (from the Company’s authorized but unissued treasury shares, but in the event there are insufficient treasury shares of Common Stock to accommodate a Conversion Notice (defined below) your firm and the Company agree that the Conversion Notice should be completed using of Common Stock that the Company has reserved for the Investor) by either (i) electronically by crediting the account of a Prime Broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, provided that the Company has been made FAST/DRS eligible by DTCC (DWAC), or (ii) in certificated form without any legend which would restrict the transfer of the shares, and you should remove all stop-transfer instructions relating to such shares: (A) upon your receipt from the Investor dated within 90 days from the date of the issuance or transfer request, of: (i) a notice of conversion ("Conversion Notice") executed by the Investor (for either the initial share issuance or subsequent share issuances, including those pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Note); and (ii) an opinion of counsel of the Investor, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions (and satisfactory to the transfer agent), to the effect that the shares of Common Stock of the Company issued to the Investor pursuant to the Conversion Notice are not "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 and should be issued to the Investor without any restrictive legend; and (B) the number of shares to be issued is less than 9.99% of the total issued common stock of the Company.

 

The Company hereby requests that your firm act immediately, without delay and without the need for any action or confirmation by the Company with respect to the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to any Conversion Notices received from the Investor (for either the initial share issuance or subsequent share issuances, including those pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Note). Additionally, the Company hereby requests that upon the Investor’s request, your firm provide them with the share structure of the Company, including issued and outstanding, authorized, and public float.

 

The Investor and the Company understands that National Securities Administrators Ltd shall not be required to perform any issuances or transfers of shares if (a) the Company or request violates, or be in violation of, any terms of the Transfer Agent Agreement, (b) such an issuance or transfer of shares be in violation of any state or federal securities laws or regulation or (c) the issuance or transfer of shares be prohibited or stopped as required or directed by a court order.

 

 

 

 

 15 

 

 

The Company shall indemnify you and your officers, directors, principals, partners, agents and representatives, and hold each of them harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its attorneys) incurred by or asserted against you or any of them arising out of or in connection the instructions set forth herein, the performance of your duties hereunder and otherwise in respect hereof, including the costs and expenses of defending yourself or themselves against any claim or liability hereunder, except that the Company shall not be liable hereunder as to matters in respect of which it is determined that you have acted with gross negligence or in bad faith. You shall have no liability to the Company in respect to any action taken or any failure to act in respect of this if such action was taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, and you shall be entitled to rely in this regard on the advice of counsel.

 

The Board of Directors of the Company has approved the foregoing irrevocable instructions and does hereby extend the Company’s irrevocable agreement to indemnify your firm for all loss, liability or expense in carrying out the authority and direction herein contained on the terms herein set forth.

 

The Company agrees that in the event that the Transfer Agent resigns as the Company’s transfer agent, the Company shall engage a suitable replacement transfer agent that will agree to serve as transfer agent for the Company and be bound by the terms and conditions of these Irrevocable Instructions within five (5) business days. The Investor and the Company agree that the Transfer Agent shall not be required to perform any issuances or transfers of shares as of the date of the termination of the transfer agreement. The Company may not terminate the Transfer Agent as the Company’s Transfer Agent without express written consent of the Investor.

 

The Investor is intended to be and are third party beneficiaries hereof, and no amendment or modification to the instructions set forth herein may be made without the consent of the Investor.

W I T N E S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, the Assignor holds debt in the aggregate principal amount stated on the signature page (the "Debt") in the trading company identified below, which Debt arose more than twelve ( 12 ) months ago and:

 

WHEREAS, the Assignor wishes to assign and transfer its rights in the Debt to the Assignee and the Assignee wishes to accept such assignment, all subject to the terms and conditions herein;

 

NOW, THERFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties and trading company agree as follows:

 

1. Nature of Debt. The Assignor represents that the Assignor is not and has not been, an officer, Director or 10% or more shareholder of the trading company and in acting as a non-affiliate is not restricted from assigning this Debt and also the Debt is a non contingent liquidated obligation owed to it that was created and became valid in excess of twelve months prior to this date and that there are no obligations or liabilities of any kind remaining due from the Assignor that would be a condition to the validity or collection of the Debt and that the Assignee by purchasing such Debt does not become obligated to perform any of the past agreements, if any, of any nature, owed by the Assignor to the trading company. Further, as part of the assignment of the Debt, the Assignee acquires all contemplated conversion rights into common stock of the trading company, of the Assignor, and the beneficial ownership and right to same relating back. Assignor also represents that from the time the Debt was created, regardless of how it was documented at that time or subsequently, the Assignor, with the cooperation of the trading company, could have obtained a consolidation of the Debt into a promissory note, debenture or similar instrument. Also, the Assignor confirms that it was the understanding with the Company, that the Debt could be converted into shares of common stock in the Company to settle the Debt, over 12 months past.

 

2. Assignment of Debt. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Assignor hereby assigns, sells, grants, conveys and transfers to Assignee, and Assignee hereby accepts, purchases and acquires from Assignor, all of Assignor’s right, title and interest in and to the Debt, confirmation of which is attached hereto as Attachment A, including all rights. As consideration for such Assignment, Assignee shall pay Assignor the amount on the signature page hereof being the "Assignment Payment.” As part of the Debt assignment, Assignor shall transfer all related supportive documents to the Assignee and all UCC and other financing rights, but in no event is the Assignee required to investigate or verify the Debt or supportive documents since it is a commercial representation by the Assignor that the Debt is real and support is true and complete.

 

3.Assignor Bound. Assignor hereby accepts the foregoing assignment and transfer and promises to be bound by and upon all the covenants, agreements, terms and conditions set forth therein.

 

4.Successors and Assigns; Assignments. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that no Party, except Assignee, shall assign or transfer all or any portion of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and any such attempted assignment shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

 

5.Assigning Party’s Representations and Warranties. Assignor warrants and represents that it/he/she has good title to said Debt, free and clear of any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance [except as disclosed on Schedule 1], full authority to sell and transfer same, that any shareholder or Board of Director approval of the Assignor has been obtained and that said Debt is being sold free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, liabilities and adverse claims, of every nature and description. Assignor further warrants that it shall fully defend, protect, indemnify and save harmless the Assignee and its lawful successors and assigns from any and all adverse claim. that may be made by any party against said Debt.

Assignor represents and warrants that it has the full right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder.

 17 

 

 

6.Waiver. Any Party hereto shall have the right to waive compliance by the other of any term, condition or covenant contained herein. Such waiver shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent failure to comply with the same or any different term, condition or covenant.

7.Governing Law and Venue. The laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of laws principles, shall govern this Agreement and the sole venue for any suit relating hereto shall be a court in New York County, New York.

 

8.Further Representations.

 18
