For good and valuable consideration, Smart Decision, Inc, a Wyoming corporation ("Maker"), hereby makes and delivers this Promissory Note (this "Note") in favor of LQD Ventures, LLC, or its assigns ("Holder"), and hereby agrees as follows:
ARTICLE I.
PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST
Section 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 sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars. Maker's obligation under this Note shall accrue interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) 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 sum 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 September 22, 2018 (the "Maturity Date").
c. Maker shall have the right to prepay all or any part of the principal under this Note on or after the date of maturity.
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.
10 |
Section 13 This Note is issued in exchange solely for Holder's services rendered to Maker pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, as specifically listed on Schedule A hereto, and for no other consideration from Holder. All fees earned under the Consulting Agreement are considered to have been earned upfront.
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 "Conversion Stock") 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, 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, 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 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 equal to Sixty Percent (60%) of the lowest Trading Price (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 (Sixty Percent (60%) and (ii) the lowest trading price in the forty trading days prior to the day the Holder requests conversion.
The "Valuation Period" shall mean forty (40) 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.
11 |
"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 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.
Section 23. 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), 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.
12 |
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:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE "ACT"). THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS THEY ARE REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR SUCH OFFERS, SALES AND TRANSFERS ARE MADE PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THOSE LAWS.
Maker shall file a registration statement for all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note within 90 days of the Issue Date of this Note. 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 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 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.
