BARFRESH FOOD GROUP INC.
AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE
This Amended and Restated Note ("Amended Note") amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety that certain promissory note issued by Barfresh Food Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, ("Company") on December 20, 2013 to Lazarus Investment Partners LLLP ("Holder") in the amount of FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($500,000.00), which note was extended pursuant to Section 6 thereof (the "Original Note"). Upon execution of this Amended Note by Xxxxxx, the Original Note shall be cancelled although accrued but unpaid interest owed thereunder shall remain due to Holder until paid in full. The Original Note is one of a series of promissory notes containing substantially identical terms and conditions (except for the face amounts) issued on December 20, 2013 in the aggregate principal amount of SEVEN HUNDRED SEVENTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($775,000.00). All such Original Notes are referred to herein as the "Original Notes". Amended Notes in the aggregate principal amount of SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND ($700,000.00) are being issued only to Lazarus Investment Partners LLLP, The Delle Coste Family Trust and Sidra Pty. Ltd. This Amended Note is subject to the following terms and conditions:
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Barfresh Food Group Inc., a Delaware corporation, ("Company"), promises to pay to the order of Lazarus Investment Partners LLLP, or its assigns (the "Holder"), the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($500,000.00) ("Principal"), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon as set forth below (collectively, "Obligations") payable as follows: TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND ($250,000.00) shall be due and payable on June 22, 2015 and the balance of the Obligations shall be due and payable on September 20, 2015 ("Maturity Date"), when this Amended Note will be due and payable in full. Accrued but unpaid interest owed under the Original Note shall be paid to Holder on June 22, 2015.
1. Interest. Unless provided otherwise hereunder, interest will accrue from the Issuance Date of this Amended Note (the "Closing Date") on the unpaid principal amount at a rate equal to 10% per annum, until all Obligations under this Amended Note are paid in full. In the event of default, default period interest will accrue at 12% per annum.
2. Payment. All payments shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at such place as Holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing to the Company. Payments will be credited first to the accrued but unpaid interest and the remainder applied to principal. The Company agrees it will make all payments (including prepayments) on this Amended Note and the Amended Notes with The Delle Coste Family Trust and Sidra Pty. Ltd. on a pro rata basis so that the payment on each Note is the same percentage of the total payments made on all Notes as the indebtedness under each Note is of the total indebtedness under all Notes. In the event the Holder of this Note receives a payment in excess of its pro rata share, the Holder agrees that the excess will be paid to the Holders of the other Notes. Prepayment of this Amended Note prior to its maturity is permitted in whole or in part, but all accrued and unpaid interest must be paid at the time of prepayment and all of the Amended Notes must be prepaid on a pro rata basis.
