Satisfaction of Note Agreement

Exhibit 4.40.1

This Satisfaction of Note Agreement (“Satisfaction of Note Agreement”), dated this 31st day of December, 2012, is by and between GLOBALWISE INVESTMENTS, INC. hereinafter called “Maker” and Alpharion Capital Partners, Inc., hereinafter called “Lender”.

Background

Maker and Lender are parties to that certain Assignment and Assumption Agreement dated December 31, 2012 whereby the Maker assumed the obligations of a Promissory Note issued to the Lender by Intellinetics, Inc., (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Maker) in the aggregate principal amount of ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN THOUSAND AND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS AND ZERO CENTS ($111,500), the Promissory Note hereinafter referred to as the “Promissory Note”.

The Lender surrenders the Promissory Note pursuant to this Satisfaction of Note Agreement to the Maker and the Maker agrees to issue to the Lender contemporaneously herewith a Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of the Promissory Note for an aggregate total of $111,500 (a Convertible Promissory Note substantially similar in form is attached as Exhibit A hereto).

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and adequate consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Maker hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Lender has surrendered the Promissory Note and the Lender hereby agrees and acknowledges that Maker hereby has issued a Convertible Promissory Note substantially similar in form to Exhibit A hereto. The Lender agrees that the Promissory Note is hereby satisfied in full, and the obligation of Maker under the Promissory Note is hereby discharged in its entirety by the issuance of the Convertible Promissory Note. Lender shall xxxx the Promissory Note “PAID IN FULL” and return the Promissory Note to Maker. However, the failure of the Lender to return the Promissory Note to the Maker as provided for in the immediately preceding sentence shall not in any way affect the discharge by the Lender of the Maker’s obligations under the Promissory Note.

NEITHER THIS CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE NOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE CONVERSION HEREOF HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

U.S. $_____________

Dated: _______________, 2012

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Globalwise Investments, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Maker”), hereby promises to pay to ___________, a corporation, or his successors and assigns (the “Lender”), at its address at _____________________________________________, or to such other address as Lender shall provide in writing to the Maker for such purpose, a principal sum of __________________ (U.S. $_________). The aggregate principal amount outstanding under this Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) will be conclusively evidenced by the schedule annexed as Annex B hereto (the “Loan Schedule”), up to a maximum principal amount of U.S $___________. The entire principal amount hereunder shall be due and payable on _____________ (the “Maturity Date”), or on such earlier date as such principal amount may earlier become due and payable pursuant to the terms hereof.

1. Interest Rate. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at the rate of _____ percent (__%) per annum from the date of the first making of the loan for such principal amount until such unpaid principal amount is paid in full or earlier converted into restricted shares (the “Shares”) of the Maker’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) in accordance with the terms hereof. Interest hereunder shall be paid on such date as the principal amount under this Note becomes due and payable or the interest shall be converted into Shares of Maker’s Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

2. Conversion of Principal and Interest. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Lender, at its sole option, may deliver to the Maker a notice in the form attached hereto as Annex A (a “Conversion Notice”) and an updated Loan Schedule, at any time and from time to time after the date hereof and prior to the payment of the principal amount and all accrued interest thereon (the date of the delivery of a Conversion Notice shall be referred to herein as a “Conversion Date”), to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, for a number of Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the dollar amount of such outstanding principal amount of this Note plus the accrued and unpaid interest thereon being converted by the Conversion Price (as defined in Section 15). Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder in an amount equal to the applicable conversion, which shall be evidenced by entries set forth in the Conversion Notice and the Loan Schedule.

3. Certain Conversion Limitations. The Lender may not convert an outstanding principal amount of this Note or accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would result in the Lender, together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (as defined in Section 15) and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 9.999% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Since the Lender will not be obligated to report to the Maker the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would result in the beneficial ownership in excess of 9.999% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock (inclusive of any other shares which may be beneficially owned by the Lender or an affiliate thereof), the Lender shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether and the extent to which the restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder. The Lender may waive the provisions of this Section upon not less than 75 days prior notice to the Maker.

4. Deliveries. Not later than thirty (30) Trading Days (as defined in Section 15) after any Conversion Date, the Maker will deliver to the Lender (i) a certificate or certificates representing the number of Shares being acquired upon the conversion of the principal amount of this Note and any interest accrued thereunder being converted pursuant to the Conversion Notice (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3 hereof), and (ii) an endorsement by the Maker of the Loan Schedule acknowledging the remaining outstanding principal amount of this Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon not converted (an “Endorsement”). The Maker’s delivery to the Lender of stock certificates in accordance clause (i) above shall be Maker’s conclusive endorsement of the remaining outstanding principal amount of this Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon not converted as set forth in the Loan Schedule.

5. Prepayment Right. The Maker shall have the right to prepay all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

6. No Adjustments. If the Maker, at any time while any portion of the principal amount due under this Note is outstanding, (a) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock, (b) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (c) combine (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (d) issue by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Maker, then the Conversion Price (as defined in Section 15) shall not be adjusted.

7. No Waiver of Lender’s Rights, etc. All payments of principal and interest shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim. No delay or failure on the part of the Lender in exercising any of its options, powers or rights, nor any partial or single exercise of its options, powers or rights shall constitute a waiver thereof or of any other option, power or right, and no waiver on the part of the Lender of any of its options, powers or rights shall constitute a waiver of any other option, power or right. The Maker hereby waives presentment of payment, protest, and notices or demands in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or endorsement of this Note. Acceptance by the Lender of less than the full amount due and payable hereunder shall in no way limit the right of the Lender to require full payment of all sums due and payable hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof.

8. Modifications. No term or provision contained herein may be modified, amended or waived except by written agreement or consent signed by both parties to this Note.

9. Cumulative Rights and Remedies; Usury. The rights and remedies of the Lender expressed herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights and remedies otherwise available. If it shall be found that any interest outstanding hereunder shall violate applicable laws governing usury, the applicable rate of interest outstanding hereunder shall be reduced to the maximum permitted rate of interest under such law.

10. Successors and Assigns. This Note shall be binding upon the Maker and its successors and shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns. The term “Lender” as used herein, shall also include any endorsee, assignee or other holder of this Note.

11. Lost or Stolen Promissory Note. If this Note is lost, stolen, mutilated or otherwise destroyed, the Maker shall execute and deliver to the Lender a new promissory note containing the same terms, and in the same form, as this Note. In such event, the Maker may require the Lender to deliver to the Maker an affidavit of lost instrument and customary indemnity in respect thereof as a condition to the delivery of any such new promissory note.

12. Due Authorization. This Note has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Maker and is the legal obligation of the Maker, enforceable against the Maker in accordance with its terms.

13. Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Nevada without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

14. Definitions. For the purposes hereof, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Business Day” means any day except Saturday, Sunday and any day that is a legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York or State of Nevada are authorized or required by law or other government action to close.

“Conversion Price” shall be the market price of the Common Shares (calculated to be the closing price) on the Conversion Date.

“Exchange Act” means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

“Trading Day” means (a) a day on which the shares of Common Stock are traded on such Subsequent Market on which the shares of Common Stock are then listed or quoted, or (b) if the shares of Common Stock are not listed on a Subsequent Market, a day on which the shares of Common Stock are traded in the over-the-counter market, as reported by the OTC Bulletin Board, or (c) if the shares of Common Stock are not quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, a day on which the shares of Common Stock are quoted in the over-the-counter market as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated (or any similar organization or agency succeeding its functions of reporting prices); provided, however, that in the event that the shares of Common Stock are not listed or quoted as set forth in (a), (b) and (c) hereof, then Trading Day shall mean any day except Saturday, Sunday and any day which shall be a legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York or State of Nevada are authorized or required by law or other government action to close.
