Issuance Date: July 31, 2017

Principal Amount: U.S. $125,000

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Vynleads, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of the undersigned lender or registered assigns (“Holder”) the amount set out above as the Principal Amount (as reduced pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption, conversion or otherwise, the “Principal”) when due, whether upon the Maturity Date (as defined in Section 16 below), acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof) and to pay interest in such amount as defined below (the “Interest”) on any outstanding Principal at the applicable Interest Rate from the date set out above as the Issuance Date (the “Issuance Date”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether upon the Maturity Date, acceleration, conversion, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof). Certain capitalized terms used in this Convertible Note (including all Convertible Notes issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this “Note”) are defined in Section 16.

PAYMENTS.

Payment of Principal. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder the outstanding Principal amount, together with any accrued and unpaid Interest or accrued and unpaid Default Interest on Principal and Interest.

Prepayment. The Company shall have the right to prepay all or any part of the Principal or Interest due hereunder at any time, without penalty or premium.

Payment Terms. All payments will be made in lawful money of the United States of America by a check drawn on the account of the Company and sent via overnight courier service to the Holder at such address as previously provided to the Company in writing; provided that the Holder may elect to receive a payment of cash via wire transfer of immediately available funds by providing the Company with prior written notice setting out such request and the Holder’s wire transfer instructions. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the

Vynleads, Inc. Convertible Note

next succeeding day which is a Business Day. Payment will be credited first to accrued Interest due and payable, with any remainder applied to Principal.

Security. This Note is a general unsecured obligation of the Company.

INTEREST; INTEREST RATE; DEFAULT INTEREST.

Interest on this Note shall commence accruing on the Issuance Date, shall accrue daily at the Interest Rate on the outstanding Principal amount from time to time, shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and shall be payable in arrears to the Holder on the Maturity Date in cash. From and after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Interest Rate shall be increased to the lower of: (i) ten percent (10%); and (ii) the highest amount permitted by applicable law (the “Default Interest”). In the event that such Event of Default is subsequently cured, the adjustment referred to in the preceding sentence shall cease to be effective as of the date of such cure; provided that the Interest as calculated and unpaid at such increased rate during the continuance of such Event of Default shall continue to apply to the extent relating to the days after the occurrence of such Event of Default through and including the date of such cure of such Event of Default.

CONVERSION OF NOTES.

Note Conversion. This Note shall be convertible into shares of Capital Stock issued by the Company in the next equity financing conducted by the Company, in a single transaction, or series of related transactions, (the “Next Equity Financing”) as follows:

(i) automatically on or prior to the Maturity Date if the Next Equity Financing results in net proceeds (individually or in the aggregate) to the Company of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (excluding any amounts received in connection with the conversion of this Note or any other debt securities converting into equity in connection with such financing); or

(ii) on or prior to the Maturity Date, at the sole discretion of the Holder;

The number of shares of Capital Stock the Company issues upon such conversion will equal the quotient (rounded down to the nearest whole share) obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued Interest under this Note on the date of conversion (the “Note Value”) by (y) the applicable Conversion Price. The “Conversion Price” shall be the lowest per share purchase price of the Capital Stock issued in the Next Equity Financing.

No Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Capital Stock of the Company upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Capital Stock of the Company, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Capital Stock down to the nearest whole share and shall pay to the Holder cash in an amount equal to that portion of the Note Value that would otherwise convert into a fractional share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Capital Stock upon conversion of any Principal.

On or before the tenth (10th) Business Day following the date of receipt of the Conversion Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (i) issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Capital Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled; and (ii) pay to the Holder in cash an amount equal to the remainder of the Note Value not converted under Section 3(a)(ii).

Record Holder. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Capital Stock of the Company issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Capital Stock on the relevant conversion date.
