CONVERTIBLE NOTE
PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of
July 10, 2014, by and among Express Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), Bitcoin Shop Inc. a Nevada corporation (“BTCS”), and each of
the investors listed on the signature page hereto (each, a “Purchaser” and
together, the “Purchasers”).
 
RECITALS

The Company desires to issue and sell to the Purchasers and the Purchasers
desire to purchase convertible promissory notes in substantially the form
attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A (the “Note” or “Notes”) which shall be
convertible on the terms stated therein into preferred equity securities of the
Company.  The Notes and the preferred equity securities issuable upon conversion
thereof (and the securities issuable upon conversion of such preferred equity
securities) are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities”.
 

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and
valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties to
this Agreement agree as follows:
 
1.           Purchase and Sale of Notes.  Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, each Purchaser agrees to purchase at each Closing, and the
Company agrees to sell and issue to each Purchaser at such Closing, a Note in
the principal amount set forth on the signature page hereto.  The purchase price
of each Note shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Note.  The
Company’s agreements with each of the Purchasers are separate agreements, and
the sales of the Notes to each of the Purchasers are separate sales.  Except as
provided for in the Letter, or mutually agreed to by the Company and BTCS the
Company agrees that the aggregate principal value of the Notes sold to the
Purchasers will be no greater than $1,500,000 USD and the Note financing round
will close on or before August 15, 2014 and no Notes will be sold
thereafter.  Provide further that the forgoing restriction will not prevent the
Company from issuing other equity or equity linked securities (including
convertible notes which are not part of this Note financing round, convertible
preferred stock, preferred stock, common stock, etc.).
 
2.           Equity Securities Purchase Agreement.  Each Purchaser understands
and agrees that the conversion of the Notes into, and the sale and purchase of,
preferred equity securities of the Company may require such Purchaser’s
execution of certain agreements relating to the conversion or purchase and sale
of such preferred equity securities, and each such Purchaser agrees to execute
and deliver such agreements as shall be reasonably requested by the Company.
 
3.           Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The Company hereby
represents and warrants to each Purchaser that:
 
(a)           Organization, Good Standing and Qualification.  The Company is a
corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and authority to
carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted.  The
Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each
jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse
effect on the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition, property or
results of operation of the Company.

(b)           Authorization.  All corporate action on the part of the Company,
its members and managers necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the
Notes, and the performance of all obligations of the Company under this
Agreement and the Notes, has been taken or will be taken prior to the Initial
Closing.  The Agreement and the Notes, when executed and delivered by the
Company, shall constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company,

conveyance, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally and (ii) laws relating to the availability of
specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.
 
(c)           No Conflicts.  The execution and delivery of this Agreement and
the Notes and the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and
thereunder will not (i) result in any violation of any term of its Certificate
of Incorporation or Bylaws or any material agreement or material obligation of
the Company, (ii) be in conflict with or constitute a default under any of the
foregoing and will not result in the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien,
encumbrance or charge upon any of the properties or assets of the Company
pursuant to the foregoing, (iii) violate any statute or law or any judgment,
decree, order, regulation or rule of any court or governmental authority to

violation or default (i) of any provisions of its Certificate of Incorporation
or Bylaws, (ii) of any judgment, order, writ or decree of any court or
governmental entity, (iii) under any material agreement, instrument, contract,
license, lease, note, indenture, mortgage or purchase order to which it is a
party, or (iv) to its knowledge, of any provision of federal or state statute,
rule or regulation materially applicable to the Company.
 
(e)           Securities Law Exemptions.  Based in part on the accuracy of the
representations and warranties of the Purchasers contained in Section 4 hereof,
the offer, sale and issuance of the Securities are and will be exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act, and the registration, permit or
qualification requirements of any applicable state securities laws.  Neither the
Company nor any agent on its behalf has solicited or will solicit any offers to
sell or has offered to sell or will offer to sell any part of the Securities to
any person or persons so as to bring the sale of such Securities by the Company
within the registration provisions of the Securities Act or any state securities
law.
 
(f)           Issuance of Securities.  The Securities to be issued to the
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, when issued and delivered in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued and will be
fully paid and non-assessable.
 
(g)           No Financial Advisor.  The Company acknowledges and agrees that
each Purchaser is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser
with respect to the Securities and the transactions contemplated hereby. The
Company further acknowledges that Purchaser is not acting as a financial advisor
or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and any advice given by any
Purchaser or any of its representatives or agents in connection with this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is merely incidental to such
Purchaser’s purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to each
Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement has been
based solely on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated
hereby by the Company and its representatives.
 
(h)           Capitalization.  The authorized and outstanding capital stock of
the Company on a fully diluted basis as of the date of this Agreement and the
Closing Date (not including the Securities) is set forth on Exhibit B annexed
hereto.  Except as set forth on Exhibit B annexed hereto, there are no options,
warrants, or rights to subscribe to, securities, rights, understandings or
obligations convertible into or exchangeable for or giving any right to
subscribe for any shares of capital stock or other equity interest of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries.  The only officer, director, employee and
consultant stock option or stock incentive plan or similar plan currently in
effect or contemplated by the Company are described on Exhibit B.  There are no
outstanding agreements or preemptive or similar rights affecting the Company's
Common Stock.

(i)           Litigation.  There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or
investigation before or by any court, public board, other Governmental Entity,
self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
the Company’s common stock or any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ officers
or directors which is outside of the ordinary course of business or individually
or in the aggregate material to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.  No
director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries has
willfully violated 18 U.S.C. §1519 or engaged in spoliation in reasonable
anticipation of litigation.  “Governmental Entity” means any nation, state,
county, city, town, village, district, or other political jurisdiction of any
nature, federal, state, local, municipal, foreign, or other government,
governmental or quasi-governmental authority of any nature (including any
governmental agency, branch, department, official, or entity and any court or

entitled to exercise, any administrative, executive, judicial, legislative,
police, regulatory, or taxing authority or power of any nature or
instrumentality of any of the foregoing, including any entity or enterprise
owned or controlled by a government or a public international organization or
any of the foregoing.
 
(j)           No Disqualification Events
.  To the Company’s knowledge, none of the Company, any of its predecessors, any
affiliated issuer, any director, executive officer, other officer of the Company
participating in the offering contemplated hereby, any beneficial owner of 20%
or more of the Company's outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the
basis of voting power, nor any promoter (as that term is defined in Rule 405
under the Securities Act) connected with the Company in any capacity at the time
of sale (each, an “Issuer Covered Person”) is subject to any of the "Bad Actor"
disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities
Act (a “Disqualification Event”), except for a Disqualification Event covered by
Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3). The Company has exercised reasonable care to determine
whether any Issuer Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event.
 
(k)           Affiliated Entities.  The Company hereby represents and warrants
to each Purchaser that all representations and warranties made in Section 3
herein shall apply to the Affiliated Entities (as defined below) as if the
Company had wholly owned the Affiliated Entities at the time of initial Note
purchase as contemplated herein.
 
4.           Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers.  Each Purchaser
hereby represents and warrants, solely with respect to itself and no in regards
to any other Purchaser, to the Company that:
 
(a)           Purchase Entirely for Own Account.  The Securities to be acquired
by the Purchaser will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own
account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or
distribution of any part thereof, and the Purchaser has no present intention of
selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.  The
Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring any of the
Securities.
 
(b)           Knowledge.  The Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business
affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient infor­mation about
the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the
Securities.
 
(c)           Restricted Securities.  The Purchaser understands that the
Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by reason of a specific exemption
from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among
other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of
the Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein.  The Purchaser understands
that the Securities are “Restricted Securities” under applicable U.S. federal
and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must
hold the Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities
and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from
such registration and qualification requirements is available.  The Purchaser
acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the
Securities for resale.  The Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption
from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on
various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale,
the holding period for the Securities, and on requirements relating to the
Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(d)           No Public Market.  The Purchaser understands that no public market
now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company and that the Company
has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Securities.
 
(e)           Legends.  The Purchaser understands that the Securities, and any
securities issued in respect thereof or exchange therefor, may bear one or all
of the following legends:
 
(i)           “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT
AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNEC­TION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION
THEREOF.  NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM
SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.”
 
(ii)           Any legend required by the Blue Sky laws of any state to the
extent such laws are applicable to the securities so legended.
 
(f)           Accredited Investor.  The Purchaser is an accredited investor as
defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
 
(g)           Foreign Investors.  If the Purchaser is not a United States person
(as defined by Rule 902(k) under the Securities Act), such Purchaser hereby
represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of
its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the
Securities or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements
within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Securities, (ii) any foreign
exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or
other consents that may need to be obtained and (iv) the income tax and other
tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding,
redemption, sale or transfer of the Securities.  Such Purchaser’s subscription
and payment for, and such Purchaser’s continued beneficial ownership of the
Securities, will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of such
Purchaser’s jurisdiction.  Such Purchaser also hereby represents that such
Purchaser is not a “10-Percent Shareholder” as defined in Section 871(h) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
