Secured Convertible Debenture

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BITZIO, INC. (hereinafter called the “Obligor” or the
“Company”), hereby promises to pay to 112359 FACTOR FUND, LLC (the “Holder”) or
its successors and assigns the amounts identified as the balance due for each of
the ten (10) obligations listed below (each, an “Obligation”), which are in the
aggregate equal to the principal sum of SIX HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
($650,000.00), in the form of cash or Obligor common stock on the terms and
conditions hereof if and to the extent that each specific purchase price payment
(each, a “Tranche”) has been paid as required under that certain Securities
Purchase Agreement dated August 5, 2014 by and between the Obligor and Holder
(“SPA”). Obligor’s payments shall be made in each case on or before the second
(2nd) anniversary (each, a “Maturity Date”) of each Tranche payment date (each,
a “Tranche Payment Date”) according to the following schedule:

 

Tranche Number   Tranche Payment Date  Tranche   Obligation   Maturity Date 1

Interest. Interest shall accrue on the unconverted outstanding principal balance
hereof at an annual rate equal to the lesser of the Applicable Federal Rate or
EIGHT PERCENT (8%), and on a pro rata basis to the extent that each Tranche has
been paid (the “Interest Rate”). Interest shall be due and payable to Holder on
the earlier to occur of (a) the Maturity Date or (b) the date upon which a
Default Event has occurred hereunder. Interest shall be calculated on the basis
of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, to the extent permitted
by applicable law.

 

This Debenture is subject to the following additional provisions:

 

Section 1. Conversion.

 

(a) Conversion Procedure.

 

(i) The outstanding amounts due under this Debenture shall be convertible into
shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, in whole or in part at any
time and from time to time (subject to the limitations on conversion set forth
in Sections 1(b) and 1(c) hereof) on a pro rata basis to the extent that Holder
has complied with the Holder Obligations. This Debenture shall continue to be
convertible until it is satisfied in full. The number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon a conversion hereunder equals the quotient obtained by dividing
(x) the outstanding amount of this Debenture to be converted by (y) the
Conversion Price (as defined in Section 1(c)(i)). The Obligor shall deliver
Common Stock certificates to the Holder prior to the Fifth (5th) Trading Day
after a Conversion Date. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the
Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 1(a)(i) by the Fifth
(5th) Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Company shall pay to such
Holder, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each one thousand
dollars ($1,000) of principal amount being converted, ten dollars ($10) per
Trading Day (increasing to twenty dollars ($20) per Trading Day on the seventh
Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day
after such third Trading Day until such certificates are delivered (“Liquidated
Damages”).

 

PAGE 1

 

 

(ii) The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Obligor a
completed notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Conversion
Notice”) which Conversion Notice shall identify which Obligation is subject to
conversion for such Conversion Notice. The date on which a Conversion Notice is
delivered is the “Conversion Date.” Unless the Holder is converting the entire
principal amount outstanding under this Debenture, the Holder is not required to
physically surrender this Debenture to the Obligor in order to effect
conversions. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the
outstanding principal amount of this Debenture in an amount equal to the
applicable conversion. The Holder and the Obligor shall maintain records showing
the principal amount converted and the date of such conversions. In the event of
any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and
determinative in the absence of manifest error.

 

(b) Certain Conversion Restrictions. A Holder may not convert this Debenture to
the extent such conversion would result in the Holder, together with any
affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section
13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of
9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including
shares issuable upon conversion of this Debenture held by such Holder after
application of this Section. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to
the Obligor 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
issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of 9.99% of the then outstanding
shares of Common Stock without regard to any other shares which may be
beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have
the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in
this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder and to the extent
that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section
applies, the determination of which portion of the principal amount of this
Debenture is convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the
Holder. If the Holder has delivered a Conversion Notice for a principal amount
of this Debenture that, without regard to any other shares that the Holder or
its affiliates may beneficially own, would result in the issuance in excess of
the permitted amount hereunder, the Obligor shall notify the Holder of this fact
and shall honor the conversion for the maximum principal amount permitted to be
converted on such Conversion Date in accordance with the periods described in
Section 1(a)(i) and, at the option of the Holder, either retain any principal
amount tendered for conversion in excess of the permitted amount hereunder for
future conversions or return such excess principal amount to the Holder. The
provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and
not to any other Holder) upon not less than 65 days prior notice to the Obligor.
Other Holders shall be unaffected by any such waiver.

 

(c) Conversion Price and Adjustments to Conversion Price.

 

(i) The “Conversion Price” in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to
100% of the average of the five (5) lowest closing market prices for the Common
Stock for the sixty (60) Trading Days preceding conversion. All market and
trading prices shall be the prices as posted on the OTCQB or on the principal US
National Stock Exchange or other electronic stock trading platform upon which
the Company may at that time be listed.

 

(ii) In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share
exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into other securities,
cash or property, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to, at its option,
(A) convert the then outstanding principal amount and any other amounts then
owing hereunder in respect of this Debenture into the shares of stock and other
securities, cash and property receivable upon or deemed to be held by holders of
the Common Stock following such reclassification or share exchange, and the
Holder of this Debenture shall be entitled upon such event to receive such
amount of securities, cash or property as the shares of the Common Stock of the
Obligor into which the then outstanding principal amount and any other amounts
then owing hereunder in respect of this Debenture could have been converted
immediately prior to such reclassification or share exchange would have been
entitled, or (B) require the Obligor to prepay the outstanding principal amount
of this Debenture, plus all other amounts due and payable thereon. The entire
prepayment price shall be paid in cash. This provision shall similarly apply to
successive reclassifications or share exchanges.

 

PAGE 2

 

 

(iii) All calculations under this Section 1 shall be rounded up to the nearest
$0.0001 or whole share.

 

(iv) If (A) the Obligor shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on
the Common Stock; (B) the Obligor shall declare a special nonrecurring cash
dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Obligor shall authorize
the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe
for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights; (D)
the approval of any stockholders of the Obligor shall be required in connection
with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to
which the Obligor is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all
of the assets of the Obligor, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the
Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property; or (E) the
Obligor shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding up of the affairs of the Obligor; then, in each case, the Obligor shall
cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of
conversion of this Debenture, and shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its
last address as it shall appear upon the stock books of the Obligor, at least
twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date
hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be
taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or
warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of
the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions,
redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which
such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange
is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is
expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or
share exchange, provided, that the failure to mail such notice or any defect
therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate
action required to be specified in such notice. The Holder is entitled to
convert this Debenture during the 20-day calendar period commencing the date of
such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice.

 

(d) Other Restrictions.

 

(i) Obligor shall maintain a sufficient amount of authorized common shares to
enable conversion of all amounts due under this Debenture.

 

(e) Other Provisions.

 

(i) The Obligor covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be issuable
pursuant to this Section 1 shall, upon issue, be duly and validly authorized,
issued and fully paid, and nonassessable.

 

(ii) Upon a conversion hereunder the Obligor shall not be required to issue
stock certificates representing fractions of shares of the Common Stock, but may
if otherwise permitted, make a cash payment in respect of any final fraction of
a share based on the Closing Bid Price at such time. If the Obligor elects not,
or is unable, to make such a cash payment, the Holder shall be entitled to
receive, in lieu of the final fraction of a share, one whole share of Common
Stock.

 

(iii) The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion
of this Debenture shall be made without charge to the Holder thereof for any
documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue
or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Obligor shall not be required
to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other
than that of the Holder of such Debenture so converted and the Obligor shall not
be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or
persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Obligor the
amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Obligor
that such tax has been paid.

 

(iv) Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for
the Obligor’s failure to deliver certificates representing shares of Common
Stock upon conversion within the period specified herein and such Holder shall
have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or
injunctive relief, in each case without the need to post a bond or provide other
security. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from
seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under
applicable law.

 

(v) The Obligor shall bear the cost of transfer agent fees and equity issuance
fees (collectively, the “Post-Closing Expenses”), which amount shall be paid
directly by the Obligor.

(vi) The Company may prepay all or any portion of the outstanding principal of
this Debenture without premium or penalty, at any time or from time to time
prior to the Maturity Date. No interest shall be payable upon the amount prepaid
if such amount is prepaid prior to the Maturity Date.

 

(f) A “Default Event” wherever used herein, means any one of the following
events (whatever the reason and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or
effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any
court, or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
body):

 

(i) Any breach of any provision of this Debenture or any Transaction Document by
and between Holder and Obligor.

 

(ii) Withdrawal from registration of the Obligor under the Exchange Act,

any applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws as now or hereafter in effect or
any successor thereto, or the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company commences
any other proceeding under any reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debt,

any of the foregoing; or any corporate or other action is taken by the Company

foregoing.

obligations under any other debenture or any mortgage, credit agreement or other
facility, indenture agreement, factoring agreement or other instrument under
which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced any

portion of its business, or any cessation of operations or admission by Obligor
that it is otherwise generally unable to pay its debts as such debts become due,

allowable under law.
