PROMISSORY NOTE


 


	$750,000,000	May 16, 2016


 


FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned,
Crystal Falls Investments, LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Corporation, having an address at 1175 South US Highway 1, Vero
Beach, FL 32962 (“Borrower”), promises to pay to the order of MONAKER GROUP, INC. (“Lender”),
with an office at 2690 Weston Road, Suite 200, Weston, Florida 33331, the principal sum of SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND
($750,000.00) DOLLARS (the “Principal Amount”), together with interest on the unpaid Profit Participation
and the Principal Amount thereof computed from the date of the executed MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the “Sale
Date”), at the rates provided herein until May 15, 2018 or such earlier date on which the Principal Amount becomes due
and payable as provided herein (the “Maturity Date”); provided, however, that from and after (i) the Maturity
Date, whether upon stated maturity, acceleration or otherwise, or (ii) the date on which the interest rate hereunder is increased
to the Default Rate (as hereinafter defined) as provided herein, such additional interest shall be computed at the Default Rate.


 


As used
herein, the term “Default Rate” shall mean a rate of interest of twelve percent (12.0%) per annum, but in no
event shall the Default Rate be in excess of the Maximum Rate (as hereinafter defined).


 


If any payment of Profit Participation
(due 7 days after the preceeding month) is not paid within five (5) days from the due date for such payment, a late charge equal
to ten percent (10%) of such overdue payment or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law shall automatically become due to
the holder of this promissory note (the “Note”), subject, however, to the limitation that late charges may be
assessed only once on each overdue payment. Said late charges do not constitute interest and shall constitute compensation to the
holder of this Note for collection and co-lender administration costs incurred hereunder. In addition, if any payment of principal,
Profit Participation or interest is not paid when due, the holder of this Note shall have the right, upon notice to Borrower, to
increase the rate of interest per annum on all amounts outstanding to the Default Rate and, upon said notice, such rate increase
shall be effective retroactively as of the date from which the interest component of such overdue payment began to accrue and shall
remain in force and effect for so long as such default shall continue. This paragraph shall not be construed as an agreement or
privilege to extend the due date of any payment, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to the holder of this Note
by reason of any default.


 


Principal, interest and conversion
hereunder shall be as follows:


 


(a)          The
Note will be set at zero percent (0%) interest and instead the Note Holder will be entitled to Profit Participation on a monthly
basis. Profit Participation is defined as 20% of the net commissions received in
Nameyourfee.com each month with the amounts to be paid within 7 days following the preceeding month.


 




    


     


    




 


(b)          In
the even Profit Participation payments are not paid on a timely basis in 2 or more instances then in addition to the Profit Participation
payments, the Note will bear interest at an annual rate of twelve percent (12.0%) per annum effective from the date of the second
late payment.


 


(c)          All
principal, interest and other sums due hereunder shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date.


 


Each payment hereunder shall
be credited first to Lender’s collection expenses, next to late charges, next to unpaid interest, and the balance, if any,
to the reduction of the Principal Amount. The interest on this Note shall be calculated on the basis of a 30-day month and a 360-day
year.


 


(d)          The
lender will be granted the option to convert the note into common shares of the entity in the event the borrower becomes a publicly
traded company. In such a case the lender will have conversion rights to convert any or all of the note into common stock of the
corporation based upon the lowest price of the last equity funding and/or debt conversion to common equity. This right will continue
during the term of the note.


 


(e)          This
Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, without penalty or premium,.


 


Borrower hereby waive all demands
for payment, presentations for payment, notices of intention to accelerate maturity, notices of acceleration of maturity, demand
for payment, protest, notice of protest and notice of dishonor, to the extent permitted by law. Borrower further waives trial by
jury. No extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof, no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision
of this Note and no release or substitution of any collateral securing Borrower’s obligations hereunder shall release, modify,
amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Borrower under this Note.


 


Any forbearance by the holder
of this Note in exercising any right or remedy hereunder or under any other agreement or instrument in connection with the Loan
or otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy by the holder of
this Note. The acceptance by the holder of this Note of payment of any sum payable hereunder after the due date of such payment
shall not be a waiver of the right of the holder of this Note to require prompt payment when due of all other sums payable hereunder
or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment.


 




    


     


    

 


If this
Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, Borrower shall pay all costs incurred and reasonable attorneys’
fees for legal services in the collection effort, whether or not suit be brought.


 


At the election of the holder
of this Note, all payments due hereunder may be accelerated, and this Note shall become immediately due and payable without notice
or demand, upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each an “Event of Default”): (1) Borrower fails
to pay on or before the date due, any amount of principal and/or Profit Participation payments and/or interest payable hereunder;
(2) Borrower fails to perform or observe any other term or provision of this Note with respect to payment; provided, however,
that Borrower shall be provided with a five (5) calendar day period to cure same. In addition to the rights and remedies provided
herein, the holder of this Note may exercise any other right or remedy in any other document, instrument or agreement evidencing,
securing or otherwise relating to the indebtedness evidenced hereby in accordance with the terms thereof, or under applicable law,
all of which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.


 


Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, under no circumstances shall the aggregate amount paid or agreed to be paid hereunder exceed the highest
lawful rate permitted under applicable usury law (the “Maximum Rate”) and the payment obligations of Borrower
under this Note are hereby limited accordingly. If under any circumstances, whether by reason of advancement or acceleration of
the maturity of the unpaid principal balance hereof or otherwise, the aggregate amounts paid on this Note shall include amounts
which by law are deemed interest and which would exceed the Maximum Rate, Borrower stipulates that payment and collection of such
excess amounts shall have been and will be deemed to have been the result of a mistake on the part of both Borrower and the holder
of this Note, and the party receiving such excess payments shall promptly credit such excess (to the extent only of such payments
in excess of the Maximum Rate) against the unpaid principal balance hereof and any portion of such excess payments not capable
of being so credited shall be refunded to Borrower.


 


This Note is secured by, among
other things, the issued and outstanding shares of Name Your Fee, LLC (the “Collateral”) identified in the MEMBERSHIP
INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”)for the shares of Name Your Fee, LLC, and is entitled to the benefits
and security thereof.

shares in Name Your Fee, LLC pursuant to the Agreement and execution of this Note, Borrower acknowledges, agrees and confirms that
it has no defense, offset or counterclaim for any occurrence in relation to this Agreement and Borrower acknowledges that Lender
has complied with all of its obligations under the Agreement as of the date hereof.

interest hereunder are payable in lawful money of the United States of America and shall be made by wire transfer to the account
of Lender, as instructed, pursuant to wiring instructions to be provided to Borrower at Closing or to such other accounts as may
be instructed by Lender.


 


Borrower is hereby prohibited
from exercising against Lender, any right or remedy which it might otherwise be entitled to exercise against Lender, including,
without limitation, any right of setoff or any defense. Any other claim that Borrower may have, arising from or related to the
transaction evidenced by this Note and the Agreement shall be asserted only against the Lender.
