    FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, ACIES
Corporation, a Nevada Corporation (the “Company”),
having an address of 3363 NE 163 Street, Suite 705, North Miami Beach,
FL  33160, hereby promises to pay to the order of Oleg Firer, the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company and/or his assigns (the “Holder”),
the aggregate principal amount of One Hundred and Eighty-Five Thousand Dollars
($185,000.00),
together with interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof, upon the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth.

                    Loan
      Amount.  This
      2nd Amended And Restated Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”
      or “Promissory
      Note”) evidences the One Hundred and Eighty-Five Thousand Dollars
      ($185,000.00) which is owed by the Company to the Holder in connection
      with expenses paid by Holder on the Company’s behalf and/or reimburses for
      expenses paid which are owed by the Company to the Holder (hereinafter
      referred to as the “Loan”
      or the “Principal”),
      and amends, replaces and supersedes that certain 1st Amended Convertible
      Promissory Note entered into between the Company and Holder on or around
      September 23, 2009 (the “1st
      Amended Note”).  The effective date of this Note is
      September 23, 2008. The parties agree that the consideration for the
      Company agreeing to the terms and conditions of this Promissory Note, and
      the amendment of the 1st Amended Note, is that Holder has agreed to
      convert such Promissory Note into shares of the Company’s common stock (as
      provided below) immediately upon the parties’ execution of this
      Note.  The Holder further agrees to provide a Notice of
      Conversion as to the conversion of the full amount of the unpaid principal
      and interest on this Note to the Company immediately upon the parties’
      entry into this Note, which the parties agree is a required term and
      condition of this Note.

                    Payment
      Terms.  The Company
      promises to pay to Holder the balance of Principal, together with accrued
      and unpaid interest, on November 30, 2009  (the “Maturity
      Date”), unless this Note is earlier prepaid as herein provided or
      earlier converted into Common Stock (as hereinafter defined) of the
      Company pursuant to Section 3 hereof.  All payments hereunder shall
      be made in lawful money of the United States of America.  Payment
      shall be credited first to the accrued interest then due and payable and
      the remainder to Principal.

                    Interest.  Interest
      on the outstanding portion of Principal of this Note shall accrue at a
      rate of eighteen percent 18%) per annum.  All computations of
      interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year for actual days
      elapsed.  Such interest shall accrue and be paid upon the Maturity
      Date of the Loan.

                  


          

        

      

    

    


    
      
        
          
            	 
      	
                    a.

                  	
                    Notwithstanding
      any provision in this Note, the total liability for payments of interest
      and payments in the nature of interest, including all charges, fees,
      exactions, or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest,
      shall not exceed the limit imposed by the usury laws of the State of
      Florida or the applicable laws of the United States of America, whichever
      shall be higher (the “Maximum
      Rate”).

                  


          

        

      

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    
      	 
      	
              b.

            	
              In
      the event the total liability for payments of interest and payments in the
      nature of interest, including, without limitation, all charges, fees,
      exactions or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest,
      which for any month or other interest payment period exceeds the Maximum
      Rate, all sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest for the
      period in question (and without further agreement or notice by, among or
      to the Holder the undersigned) shall be applied to the reduction of the
      principal balance, with the same force and effect as though the
      undersigned had specifically designated such excess sums to be so applied
      to the reduction of the principal balance and the Holder had agreed to
      accept such sums as a premium-free prepayment of principal; provided,
      however, that the Holder may, at any time and from time to time, elect, by
      notice in writing to the undersigned, to waive, reduce or limit the
      collection of any sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest
      rather than accept such sums as a prepayment of the principal
      balance.  The undersigned does not intend or expect to pay nor
      does the Holder intend or expect to charge, accept or collect any interest
      under this Note greater than the Maximum
Rate.

                If
      any payment of principal or interest on this Note shall become due on a
      Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which national banks are not open for
      business, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business
      day.

                          a.

                        	
                          At
      any time prior to the Maturity Date or prior to payment in full by the
      Company, Holder shall have the option to convert the unpaid principal
      balance of this Promissory Note, together with all accrued interest, into
      shares of common stock (the “Shares”
      and the “Common
      Stock”) of the Company  (the “Conversion Option”) at the
      conversion price of $0.01 per common share (the “Conversion
      Price”);

                        
	 
      	 
      	 
      
	 
      	
                          b.

                        	
                          In
      order to exercise this Conversion Option, the Holder shall surrender this
      Promissory Note to the Company, accompanied by written notice of its
      intentions to exercise this Conversion Option, which notice shall set
      forth the principal amount of this Promissory Note to be converted and
      shall be in the form of Exhibit A,
      attached hereto (“Notice
      of Conversion”). Within ten (10) business days of the Company’s
      receipt of the Notice of Conversion and this Note, the Company shall
      deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder, written confirmation that
      the Shares have been issued in the name of the Holder;

                        
	 
      	 
      	 
      
	 
      	
                          c.

                        	
                          In
      the event of the exercise of the Conversion Option, Holder shall cooperate
      with the Company to promptly take any and all additional actions required
      to make Holder a stockholder of the Company including, without limitation,
      in connection with the issuance of the Shares, such representations as to
      financial condition, investment intent and sophisticated investor status
      as are reasonably required by counsel for the Company. Holder recognizes
      that the Shares issued upon conversion of this Note will constitute “restricted
      securities” under the Securities
      Act of 1933, as amended, and the resale of which will be subject to the
      limitations of such rules;

                          The
      Company shall at all times take any and all additional actions as are
      necessary to maintain the required authority to issue the Shares to the
      Holder, in the event the Holder exercises its rights under the Conversion
      Option;

      Fractional Shares. Conversion calculations pursuant to this Section
      4 shall be rounded to the nearest whole share of Common Stock, and no
      fractional shares shall be issuable by the Company upon conversion of this

      If the Company at any time or from time to time on or after the effective
      date of the  issuance of this Note (the “Original
      Issuance Date”) effects a subdivision of its outstanding Common
      Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that
      subdivision shall be proportionately decreased, and conversely, if the
      Company at any time or from time to time on or after the Original Issuance
      Date combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number
      of shares, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the
      combination shall be proportionately increased;

      Encumbrances. All Shares of Common Stock which may be issued
      upon conversion of this Note will, upon issuance by the Company in
      accordance with the terms of this Note, be validly issued, free from all
      taxes and liens with respect to the issuance thereof (other than those
      created by the holders), free from all pre-emptive or similar rights and
      fully paid and non
assessable.

                Redemption.  This
      Note may be redeemed by the Company by payment of the entire Principal and
      interest outstanding under this Note in cash to Holder.  The Company
      must provide notice to Holder not less than thirty (30) days prior to
      affecting such redemption.  During the period from providing of such
      notice to Holder and the Company affecting the redemption, the Company may
      cancel such redemption by providing notice of such cancellation to
      Holder.

                Any
      partial prepayment shall be applied to any principal Loan amount
      outstanding and shall not postpone the due date of any subsequent monthly
      installment or change the minimum amount of such monthly
      installment.

                The
      Holder may apply any and all amounts received by it for application to the
      Loan evidenced hereby in such order and manner as the Holder in its
      discretion may determine. The undersigned understands and agrees that if
      for any reason the undersigned fails to pay any amount due under this Note
      on or before the date when due, the Holder shall be entitled to damages
      for the detriment caused thereby, but that it is extremely difficult and
      impractical to ascertain the extent of such
  damages.

                  The
      execution and delivery by the Company of this Note (i) are within the
      Company’s corporate power and authority, and (ii) have been duly

              This
      Note is a legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against
      the Company in accordance with the terms hereof, except to the extent that
      (i) such enforceability is limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
      reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting
      generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights, and (ii) the availability
      of the remedy of specific performance or in injunctive or other equitable
      relief is subject to the discretion of the court before which any
      proceeding therefore may be
brought.

                      Holder
      understands that this Note and any Shares converted pursuant hereto have
      not been registered under the Securities Act or registered or qualified
      under any the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, are
      “restricted securities,”
      and cannot be resold or otherwise transferred unless they are registered
      under the Securities Act, and registered or qualified under any other
      applicable securities laws, or an exemption from such registration and
      qualification is available. Prior to any proposed transfer of this Note or
      any Shares, Holder shall, among other things, give written notice to the
      Company of its intention to effect such transfer, identifying the
      transferee and describing the manner of the proposed transfer and, if
      requested by the Company, accompanied by (i) investment representations by
      the transferee similar to those made by Holder in this Section 7 and (ii) an opinion of counsel
      satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the proposed transfer may
      be effected without registration under the Securities Act and without
      registration or qualification under applicable state or other securities
      laws. Each certificate for any Shares shall bear a legend to the foregoing
      effect.
