2. Security; Payment and Conversion of this Note

(a) Security. This Note shall be senior in priority to all obligations of the Company other than the Company’s obligations to InMost Discovery Capital LLC and its affiliated investment funds, or a similar replacement thereto.

(b) Interest. The outstanding principal amount of this Note shall bear interest at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum from the Issuance Date until the Maturity Date. Such interest will be based on a 365-day year and calculated for the actual number of days elapsed in which interest is being calculated.

(c) Bi-Annual Interest Payments and Payment after Milestone Deadline. The Company shall pay to the Holder the accrued interest bi-annually, on the six month and annual anniversary dates of the Issuance Date. The Principal Amount, if and to the extent not converted or repaid as set forth below, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date, and thereafter the Holder may proceed to collect such monies due.

(d) Call Option Right. Commencing at the first annual anniversary of the Issuance Date and continuing until the Maturity Date, and provided that the Company is not listed on a national stock exchange with the VWAP of the Company’s common stock being equal to or greater than fifty-five cents ($0.55) per share for any 30 trading days after such uplisting (the “Call Option Period”), the Holder shall have the right to require repayment of any or all of the outstanding and unpaid portion of the Principal Amount of the Note by delivering a written notice to the Company. The Company shall have thirty (30) days from the date the Call notice is received by the Company to repay the Note. If the Call Option is not exercised by the Holder during the Call Option Period, the Call Option expires and the Principal Amount, if and to the extent not converted or repaid, is due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(f) Conversion Privilege. The Holder shall have the right commencing on the Issuance Date, and continuing until this Note is fully paid, to convert any or all of the outstanding and unpaid portion of this Note, at the election of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being a "Conversion Date") into fully paid and non-assessable shares of restricted common stock as such stock exists on the date of issuance of this Note (such shares, the “Conversion Shares”), or any shares of capital stock of the Company into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified, at the conversion price per share equal to twenty cents ($0.20) per share (the "Conversion Price"). Upon delivery to the Company of a completed Notice of Conversion, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder that number of Conversion Shares for the portion of the Note converted in accordance with the foregoing.

(g) Piggyback Registration Rights. If the Company files a registration statement on Form S-1 with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Company shall include all shares of common stock converted by the Holder and issued pursuant to this Note in the Form S-1.

3. Events of Default.

The existence of any of the following conditions shall constitute an Event of Default:

(a) Nonpayment of the Note in accordance with Section 2(b) or 2(c) above, if such breach remains unpaid and uncured for a period of ten (10) business days.

(b) Commencement of proceedings under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other law for the reorganization, arrangement, composition or similar relief or aid of debtors or creditors if such proceeding remains undismissed and unstayed for a period of 60 days following notice to the Company by the Holder.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 3(a) above, the Holder and the Company shall meet, cooperate and negotiate in good faith to identify the most appropriate asset or assets to be sold by the Company in order to repay the Note in full in the shortest time period possible that also gives full value to such asset(s) sold, so as not to be perceived as a distress sale. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of this Note at a default rate equal to one and a half percent (1.5%) per month until paid in full.

4. Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. If any 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 to another corporation shall be effected, appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable to the surviving corporation. The Company will not effect any such consolidation, merger or sale unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the surviving corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or the corporation purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument, 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 assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to receive.

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note, together with an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company, in the case of loss, theft, or destruction, or the surrender and cancellation of this Note, in the case of mutilation, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Note of like tenor and denomination as this Note.

7. Holder not Shareholder. This Note does not confer upon the Holder any right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a shareholder of the Company, as such, in respect of any matters whatsoever, or any other rights or liabilities as a shareholder, prior to the conversion hereof.

8. Waivers. The failure of Holder to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Note shall not, absent an express written waiver signed by Holder specifying the provision being waived, be construed to be a waiver of any such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of this Note or any part hereof or the right of Holder thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of this Note shall be held to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. The Company waives presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of nonpayment and protest.

9. Taxes. The Company agrees that it will pay, when due and payable, any and all stamp, original issue or similar taxes which may be payable in respect of the issue of this Note.
