For value received, Jammin Java Corp., a Nevada corporation dba Marley Coffee

company organized under the laws of the Bahamas (“Holder”), or to any depository
or collections agent, on behalf of Holder, at 100 West 33rd Street, Suite 1007,
New York, NY, 10001, or such other address and in such manner, as Holder may
from time to time designate in writing, in lawful money of the United States,
the principal sum of $297,324.05, in accordance with the following:

ARTICLE 1 – DEFINITIONS

Terms with initial capital letters used in this Note shall have the following
meanings, whether used in the singular or the plural:

1.1

“Loan”: The loan evidenced by this Note.

1.2

“Maturity Date”: August 31, 2016.

1.3

“Note”: This Promissory Note.

1.4

“Security Agreement”: That certain Security Agreement of even date herewith made
by Maker in favor of Holder.

ARTICLE 2 - INTEREST AND PAYMENTS

2.1

Rate of Interest. The principal balance outstanding from time to time shall bear
interest from and after the date hereof (subject to Section 3.5 below), at
0.71%.

2.2

Computation of Interest. With respect to default interest pursuant to Section
3.5 below, such interest shall be calculated on a 365/365 simple interest basis;
that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over the number of
days in a year (366 during leap years), multiplied by the outstanding principal
balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is
outstanding.

2.3

Payment. The entire outstanding principal amount of this Note shall be due and
payable by Maker without any further action by Holder on the Maturity Date. All
payments due hereunder, including payments of principal and/or interest, shall
be made by Maker to Holder in United States Dollars and shall be in the form of
immediately available funds acceptable to Holder.

2.4

Security. Maker’s obligations hereunder are secured by the collateral as set
forth in the Security Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by
reference.

ARTICLE 3 - ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

3.1

Application of Payments. All payments received, irrespective of how they may be
designated by Maker, shall be applied first to charges other than interest and
principal, if any, owing hereunder, then to accrued interest, then to principal,
except that, after the occurrence and during the continuation of any default
under this Note, all amounts received shall be applied in such order as Holder,
in its sole discretion, may elect. Maker waives the application of any statute
or rule of law that would otherwise direct, or permit Maker to direct, the order
of application of payments made by Maker or amounts otherwise received by
Holder. Interest, if any, not paid when due shall then be added to the principal
(which shall not cure the default in payment) and shall thereafter bear like
interest.

3.2

No Waiver. The acceptance by Holder of any payment under this Note after the
date that such payment is due shall not constitute a waiver of the right to
require prompt payment when due of future or succeeding payments or to declare a
default as herein provided for any failure to so pay. The acceptance by Holder
of the payment of a portion of any installment at any time that such installment
is due and payable in its entirety shall neither cure nor excuse the default
caused by the failure to pay the whole of such installment and shall not
constitute a waiver of Holder’s right to require full payment when due of all
future or succeeding installments. No delay or discontinuance in the exercise of
any right, power, privilege, option or remedy hereunder shall be deemed a waiver
of such right, power, privilege, option or remedy, nor shall the exercise of any
right, power, privilege, option or remedy be deemed an election of remedies or a
waiver of any other right, power, privilege, option or remedy. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the failure of Holder after the occurrence of
any default hereunder to exercise Holder’s right to declare any amount
immediately due and payable shall not constitute a waiver of such right in
connection with any future default. Acceleration of maturity, once elected by
Holder, may be, in Holder’s sole and absolute discretion rescinded by Holder’s
written acknowledgment to that effect.

3.3

Optional and Mandatory Prepayment.

3.3.1

Maker may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time without penalty. No
partial prepayment shall release Maker from thereafter tendering any other
payment required herein until this Note is paid in full.

3.3.2

Maker shall prepay this Note with the proceeds received or receivable by Maker
relative to the sale, transfer or license of substantially all of the equity or
assets of Holder.

3.3.3

Maker shall prepay this Note following any transaction or series of transactions
the result of which is that: (a) 2 or more directors are added to the Board of
the Maker who were not previously directors or (b) more than 25% of the equity
of the debtor is owned by someone not previously a shareholder.

3.4

Default. The following shall constitute a “default” under this Note if not cured
within ten (10) days after receipt by Maker of notice of such default:

3.4.1

A default in the punctual payment when due of any amount hereunder;

 

2 

 

 

3.4.2

Maker’s failure to comply with or to observe any other term or provision of this
Note or the Security Agreement;

3.4.3

A default under the Security Agreement that is not timely cured; and/or

3.4.4

The commencement of any liquidation, reorganization, receivership, bankruptcy,
assignment for the benefit of creditors or other debtor-relief proceeding by or
against Maker or affecting any interest of Maker in any kind of property or
asset whether real, personal or mixed, or tangible or intangible.

3.5

Waivers; Acceleration Rights; Interest After Acceleration or Maturity. Upon the
occurrence of a default hereunder, Holder may, at its election and without
presentment, demand or notice or protest of any kind, all of which are expressly
waived by Maker, take any action permitted at law or in equity, including,
without limitation declare the entire balance of principal and interest thereon
immediately due and payable, together with all costs of collection, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and all expenses incurred in connection with
collection of all sums due hereunder. Maker expressly agrees that this Note, or
any payment hereunder, may be renewed, modified or extended from time to time
and at any time by Holder. This provision shall not, however, be construed as
extending the time for payment of any amount hereunder and shall in no event
constitute a waiver of Maker’s default with respect to such overdue amount nor
prevent Holder from exercising any of its other rights and remedies with respect
to such default. At such time as this Note becomes due in full, whether by
acceleration (upon default or otherwise), by the occurrence of the Maturity Date
or otherwise, if Maker fails to pay all amounts due the unpaid principal
balance, accrued interest and costs incurred (and any judgment or decree with
respect thereto) shall from and after the date due bear interest until paid at a
rate equal to seven and one half percent (7.5%) per annum. The rights, powers,
privileges, options and remedies of Holder, as provided in this Note, in the
Security Agreement, or otherwise available at law or in equity shall be
cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singly, successively or together
at the sole discretion of Holder, and may be exercised as often as occasion
therefor shall occur.

3.6

Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Maker represents and warrants to
Holder as follows:

3.6.1

This Note, when executed and delivered by Maker, shall constitute the valid and
binding obligation of Maker enforceable in accordance with its terms. Maker has
the absolute and unrestricted legal right, power and authority to execute and
deliver this Note and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

3.6.2

The Maker is solvent, and the execution of this Note and consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby will not render Maker insolvent.

3.7

Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the payment and
performance of the obligations of this Note.

3.8

Transfer; Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Note shall
inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and
assigns of the parties; provided, that, Maker shall not assign this Note without
the prior written consent of Holder, at its sole discretion and provided that no
such assignment or delegation shall relieve Maker from any of its obligations
hereunder.
