Exhibit 10.18

 

$759,640 CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Silver Falcon Mining, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Borrower”) promises to pay to JMJ Financial or its Assignees (the “Lender”) the
Principal Sum along with the Interest Rate and any other fees according to the
terms herein.  This Note will become effective upon execution by both parties
(the “Effective Date”).

 

The Principal Sum is $759,640 (seven hundred fifty-nine thousand six hundred
forty) plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees.  The Consideration
is $759,640 (seven hundred fifty-nine thousand six hundred forty), which has
been fully paid pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement between the
parties dated December 13, 2013 (the “Settlement Agreement”).  The Maturity Date
is May 15, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”) and is the date upon which the Principal
Sum of this Note, as well as any unpaid interest and other fees, shall be due
and payable.

 

1.

Interest.  A one-time Interest charge of 12% shall be applied to the Principal
Sum.  The Interest remains payable regardless of time and manner of payment by
the Borrower.

 

2.

Repayment.  On the first day of each calendar month, commencing on April 15,
2014 through the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay the Lender from the
Borrower’s US bank account by wire payment of immediately available funds such
amount of money as equals the Monthly Payment Amount.  The Monthly Payment
Amount shall be equal to 1/14th (one-fourteenth) of the outstanding balance on
this Note (including the Principal Sum, Interest and any fees) as of April 15,
2014, which outstanding balance may be less than the Principal Sum plus Interest
due to conversions under Section 3 below and due to the stock issuances and
stock sales as set forth in the Settlement Agreement.  A late payment fee of
$5,000 shall be added to the Principal Amount for each payment received by the
Lender after the scheduled payment date.  The Borrower may repay the Principal
Sum, as well as any unpaid interest and other fees, prior to the Maturity Date
at any time in any amount.  Any remaining balance shall be due and payable on
the Maturity Date.

 

3.

Conversion. This Note may be converted, in whole or part, into shares of the
Borrower’s Class A common stock (“Common Stock”) under terms and conditions
mutually agreed upon in writing by the Borrower and the Lender at the time of
any such conversion.  Lender’s sales of the Common Stock received upon a
conversion shall be subject to Section 3 of the Settlement Agreement unless
otherwise mutually agreed upon in writing by the Borrower and the Lender.  The
parties agree that for purposes of Rule 144, the amounts due under this Note
tack back to the original cash payment dates of $300,000 on June 6, 2012 and
$500,000 on July 16, 2012.

 

4.

Reservation of Shares.  Pursuant to Section 3 and the possibility that the
Lender and Borrower may agree to convert a portion of this Note into shares of
Common Stock of the Borrower, at all times during which this Note is
outstanding, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock at least 1,000,000,000 (one billion) shares of Common Stock to provide for
the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note.

8.

Settlement Agreement.  In the event of SFMI’s breach, default, event of default,
or failure to perform under the terms of this Note, such breach, default, event
of default, or failure to perform under the terms of this Note by SFMI shall be
considered a breach, default, event of default, or failure to perform under the

upon delivery of a conversion notice by Lender, Lender immediately owns the
shares of Common Stock described in the conversion notice and any sale of those
shares issuable under such conversion notice would not be considered short
sales.

 

10.

Assignability.  The Borrower may not assign this Note.  This Note will be
binding upon the Borrower and its successors and will inure to the benefit of
the Lender and its successors and assigns and may be assigned by the Lender to

accordance with, the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to the
conflict of laws principles thereof.  Any action brought by either party against
