FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, AzurRx BioPharma, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of ___________, or any future permitted holder of this Senior Convertible Promissory Note (the “Holder”), at the principal office of the Holder set forth herein, or at such other place as the holder may designate in writing to the Company, the principal sum of ________ Dollars ($______) or such other amount as may be outstanding hereunder, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, shall be paid as provided in this Senior Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”). Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Convertible Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of the Issuance Date, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the “Purchase Agreement”).
 
1. Ranking and Security.
 
(a) This Note shall be rank pari passu in right of repayment with respect to certain other promissory notes of the Company, if issued, of like tenor herewith (the “Other Notes”), in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $8,000,000, inclusive of this Note (this Note together with the Other Notes shall be referred to as the “Notes”). The obligations of the Company under the Notes shall rank senior with respect to any and all Indebtedness incurred as of or following the Issuance Date. The Company may not redeem, declare or pay any dividends (whether in cash, stock or any combination thereof), or otherwise make any distributions with respect to any class or series of capital stock of the Company, or prepay any outstanding indebtedness, exclusive of the Other Notes, while the Notes are outstanding without the written consent from Holder(s) representing at least two-thirds (2/3rds) of the then-outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes.
 
(b) So long as the Company shall have any obligation under the Notes, the Company shall not (directly or indirectly through any Subsidiary or affiliate) incur or suffer to exist or guarantee any Indebtedness that is senior to or pari passu with (in priority of payment and performance) the Company’s obligations hereunder. As used in this Section 1(b), the term “Company” means the Company and any subsidiary of the Company. As used herein, the term “Indebtedness” means (i) all indebtedness of the Company for borrowed money or for the deferred purchase price of property or services, including any type of letters of credit, but not including deferred purchase price obligations in place as of the Issuance Date and as disclosed in the Commission Documents or obligations to trade creditors incurred in the ordinary course of business, (ii) all obligations of the Company evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or other similar instruments, (iii) purchase money indebtedness hereafter incurred by the Company to finance the purchase of fixed or capital assets, including all capital lease obligations of the Company which do not exceed the purchase price of the assets funded, (iv) all guarantee obligations of the Company in respect of obligations of the kind referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) above that the Company would not be permitted to incur or enter into, and (v) all obligations of the kind referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) above that the Company is not permitted to incur or enter into that are secured and/or unsecured by (or for which the holder of such obligation has an existing right, contingent or otherwise, to be secured and/or unsecured by) any lien or encumbrance on property (including accounts and contract rights) owned by the Company, whether or not the Company has assumed or become liable for the payment of such obligation.

2. Maturity/Principal and Interest Payments. The outstanding principal balance of this Note together with all accrued but unpaid interest hereunder (the “Outstanding Balance”) shall be due and payable on September__, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”). The Notes shall accrue interest equal to nine percent (9%) per annum. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Note shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days and shall be payable in cash. Prepayment of the principal and accrued interest under this Note shall be permitted at any time and from time to time, without penalty.
 
3. Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made shall be due on a Saturday, Sunday or a public holiday under the laws of the State of New York, such payment may be due on the next succeeding business day and such next succeeding day shall be included in the calculation of the amount of accrued interest payable on such date.
 
4. Voluntary Conversion; Reservation of Conversion Shares.
 
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 4, the Holder shall have the right, at the Holder’s option, to convert the Outstanding Balance (the “Conversion Option”) into that number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) as is determined in accordance with the following formula (the “Conversion Shares”): (the Outstanding Balance as of the date of the exercise of the Conversion Option) / [__] (the “Conversion Price”). If the Holder desires to exercise the Conversion Option, the Holder shall, by personal delivery or nationally-recognized overnight carrier, surrender the original of this Note and give written notice to the Company (the “Conversion Notice”), which Conversion Notice shall (a) state the Holder’s election to exercise the Conversion Option, and (b) provide for a representation and warranty of the Holder to the Company that, as of the date of the Conversion Notice, the Holder has not assigned or otherwise transferred all or any portion of the Holder’s rights under this Note to any third parties. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to the Holder the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled upon exercise of the Conversion Option.
 
(b) In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion hereof, provided the Company is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer or Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian programs, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in Section 4(a) and in this Section 4(b), the Company shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion hereof to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system.
 
(c) The Company covenants that at all times until this Note is satisfied in full, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of a number of Conversion Shares equal to the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the full conversion of this Note (assuming no payment of Outstanding Balance) as of any issue date (taking into consideration any adjustments to the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 5 hereof or otherwise) (the “Reserved Amount”). In the event that the Company shall be unable to reserve the entirety of the Reserved Amount (the “Reserve Amount Failure”), the Company shall promptly take all actions necessary to increase its authorized share capital to accommodate the Reserved Amount (the “Authorized Share Increase”), including without limitation, all board of directors actions and approvals and promptly (but no less than sixty (60) days following the calling and holding a special meeting of its shareholders no more than sixty (60) days following the Reserve Amount Failure to seek approval of the Authorized Share Increase via the solicitation of proxies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Reserved Amount be lower than the initial Reserved Amount, regardless of any prior conversions. The Company represents that upon issuance, the Conversion Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Company shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of Conversion Shares into which this Note shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Company shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of this Note. The Company (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Conversion Shares or instructions to have the Conversion Shares issued as contemplated by Section 4(b) hereof, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates or cause the Company to electronically issue shares of Common Stock to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Conversion Shares or cause the Conversion Shares to be issued as contemplated by Section 4(b) hereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note.

5. Adjustment of Conversion Price.
 
(a) The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events described in this Section 5; provided, however, that notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, the Company shall not be required to make any adjustment if and to the extent that such adjustment would require the Company to issue a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, less all amounts of Common Stock that have been reserved for issue upon the conversion of all outstanding securities convertible into shares of Common Stock and the exercise of all outstanding options, warrants and other rights exercisable for shares of Common Stock. If the Company does not have the requisite number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to make any adjustment, the Company shall use its commercially best efforts to obtain the necessary stockholder consent to increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock to make such an adjustment pursuant to this Section 5.
 
(i) Subdivision or Combination of Stock. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide (whether by way of stock dividend, stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and conversely, in case the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be combined (whether by way of stock combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased. The Conversion Price shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described in this Section 5.
 
(ii) Dividends in Stock, Property, Reclassification. If at any time, or from time to time, all of the holders of Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the conversion of this Note) shall have received or become entitled to receive, without payment therefore:
 
(A) any shares of stock or other securities that are at any time directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or any rights or options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the foregoing by way of dividend or other distribution, or
 
(B) additional stock or other securities or property (including cash) by way of spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement (other than shares of Common Stock issued as a stock split or adjustments in respect of which shall be covered by the terms of Section 5(a)(i) above), then and in each such case, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted proportionately, and the Holder hereof shall, upon the conversion of this Note, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, and without payment of any additional consideration therefor, the amount of stock and other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to above) that such Holder would hold on the date of such conversion had such Holder been the holder of record of such Common Stock as of the date on which holders of Common Stock received or became entitled to receive such shares or all other additional stock and other securities and property. The Conversion Price shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described in this Section 5(a)(ii).

(iii) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. If any recapitalization, reclassification or reorganization of the capital stock of the Company, or any consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets or other transaction shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or other assets or property (an “Organic Change”), then, as a condition of such Organic Change, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the conversion of the rights represented by this Note) such shares of stock, securities or other assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable assuming the full exercise of the rights represented by this Note. In the event of any Organic Change, appropriate provision shall be made by the Company with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares receivable upon the conversion of this Note) shall thereafter be applicable, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The Company will not effect any such consolidation, merger or sale unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder executed and mailed or delivered to the registered Holder hereof at the last address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase. If there is an Organic Change, then the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear on the books and records of the Company, at least ten (10) calendar days before the effective date of the Organic Change, a notice stating the date on which such Organic Change is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares for securities, cash, or other property delivered upon such Organic Change; provided, however, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. The Holder is entitled to convert this Note during the 10-day period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice. In any event, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall be deemed to assume such obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets even in the absence of a written instrument assuming such obligation to the extent such assumption occurs by operation of law.
 
(b) Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 5, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder of this Note a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and readjustments and the Conversion Price.
 
(c) Certain Events. If any event occurs as to which the other provisions of this Section 5 are not strictly applicable but the lack of any adjustment would not fairly protect the conversion rights of the Holder under this Note in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the conversion rights of the Holder under this Note in accordance with the basic intent and principles of such provisions, then the Company’s Board of Directors will, in good faith, make an appropriate adjustment to protect the rights of the Holder; provided, that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 5 will increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 5.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing, the Holder of this Note may at any time at its option, (a) declare the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with all interest accrued hereon, due and payable, and thereupon, the same shall be accelerated and so due and payable; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in (i) Sections 6(g) and (h), without presentment, demand, protest, or notice, all of which are hereby expressly unconditionally and irrevocably waived by the Company, the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest hereunder shall be automatically due and payable, and (ii) Sections 6(a) through (f), the Holder may exercise or otherwise enforce any one or more of the Holder’s rights, powers, privileges, remedies and interests under this Note or applicable law. No course of delay on the part of the Holder shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice the right of the Holder. No remedy conferred hereby shall be exclusive of any other remedy referred to herein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder agrees that its rights and remedies hereunder are limited to receipt of cash or shares of the Company’s equity securities, at the Holder’s option, in the amounts described herein.

Upon receipt by the Company of (i) evidence of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note and (ii) (y) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity (without any bond or other security) reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or (z) in the case of mutilation, the Note (surrendered for cancellation), the Company shall execute and deliver a new Note of like tenor and date. However, the Company shall not be obligated to reissue such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if the Holder contemporaneously requests the Company to convert such Note.
 
9. Parties in Interest. This Note shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns and the terms hereof shall inure to the benefit of the Holder and its successors and permitted assigns.
