CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE


 


	Issuance Date: Sept 30, 2016	Principal: U.S. $250,000.00


 


FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
Greenwood Hall, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to Lincoln Park
Capital Fund, LLC, or its registered assigns (the “Holder”), the amount set out above opposite the
caption “Principal” (as such amount may be increased or reduced from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof, through
prepayment or otherwise, the “Principal”) when due, whether upon the Maturity Date (as defined below),
acceleration, prepayment or otherwise (in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof) and to pay Interest (as defined below)
on the outstanding Principal at the rates, in the manner and at the times set forth herein. This Convertible Promissory Note (the
“Note”) is issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement. Certain capitalized terms used herein are
defined in Section 18.


 


1.           PAYMENTS
OF PRINCIPAL.


 


(a)          Voluntary.
Subject to the Holder’s written consent, the Company may prepay this Note at any time, in whole or in part, without penalty
or premium. All prepayments of Principal made pursuant to this Section 1(a) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid Interest
thereon through such prepayment date.


 


(b)          Mandatory.
Subject to the Holder’s right to convert under Section 3, on the Maturity Date, the Holder shall surrender this Note
to the Company and the Company shall pay to the Holder in cash an amount equal to the outstanding Principal and accrued and unpaid
Interest thereon.


 


2.           INTEREST.
Simple interest shall accrue on the outstanding Principal at the Interest Rate from and including the date set forth above opposite
the caption “Issuance Date” (the “Issuance Date”) until the Principal
is paid in full, shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and actual days elapsed.


 


(a)          Payment
of Interest in Cash. Unless the Holder of the Note requires otherwise but except for the period when Interest is calculated
at the default rate, Interest shall be payable on the Maturity Date to the record holder of this Note as of the last day of the
Interest Period, which is required to be made in cash (“Cash Interest”) subject to Section 2(b).
Interest will not be payable in connection with the principal amounts converted into Company Conversion Securities (as defined
in Section 3(a) below).


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

  


(b)          Application
of Payments. Payments made in connection with this Note shall be applied first to amounts due hereunder other than Principal
and Interest, thereafter to Interest and finally to Principal.


 


3.           CONVERSION
OF NOTE. This Note shall be convertible into equity securities of Company, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section
3.


 


(a)          Voluntary
Conversion. During the first six months from issuance up to 50% of the Principal and Interest shall be convertible and up to
75% of the Principal and Interest by the nine month anniversary of issuance and thereafter at any time after the Issuance Date
until this Note is no longer outstanding, this Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at the
option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time (“Company Conversion Securities”). The Holder
shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex
A (each, a “Notice of Conversion”), specifying therein the principal amount of this Note to be converted
and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion
Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered
hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless
the entire principal amount of this Note has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding
principal amount of this Note in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records
showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). The Company must deliver an objection, if any, to
a Notice of Conversion within one (1) Business Day of delivery of such Notice of Conversion or any objection will be deemed waived.
In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of
manifest error. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions
of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note may
be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.


 


(b)          Conversion
Price. The conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall be subject to equitable adjustments for
stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Company relating to the Company’s securities or the securities of
any subsidiary of the Company, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events.
The Conversion Price shall mean $.03 per share. The amount of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note is subject
to adjustment as described in this Note. Adjustments made after conversions but prior to the delivery of the subject Conversion
Shares which result in an increase in the amount of Conversion Shares shall have retroactive effect and the Company shall promptly
deliver to Holder additional Conversion Shares as a result of such retroactive adjustment.


 


(c)          Mechanics
of Conversion.


 


(i)          Conversion
Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall
be determined by dividing the principal amount of the Note being converted by Conversion Price determined in accordance with Section
3(b).


 




    	 	2	 



     


    

  


(ii)         Delivery
of Certificate Upon Conversion. Not later than three (3) Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery
Date”), the Company provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)
Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of Conversion Shares to
which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such conversion to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC
through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, or if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated
Securities Transfer Program or if the certificates are required to bear a legend regarding restriction on transferability, issue
and dispatch by overnight courier to the address as specified, a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register
in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to
such conversion The Conversion Shares will be delivered without any legend in accordance with Section 4.1(c), when applicable.


 


(iii)        Failure
to Deliver Certificates. If, in the case of any Notice of Conversion, such certificate or certificates are not delivered to
or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to
the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion, in which event
the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Note delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return
to the Company the Common Stock certificates issued to such Holder pursuant to the rescinded Conversion Notice.


 


(iv)        Obligation
Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion
of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the
Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any
Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or
alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law
by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the
Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery
shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder. In the event the Holder
of this Note shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof, the Company may not refuse conversion
based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any violation of law,
agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion
of all or part of this Note shall have been sought and obtained, and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder
in the amount of 150% of the outstanding principal amount of this Note and accrued interest, which is subject to the injunction,
which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of
which shall be payable to the Holder to the extent Holder obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall
issue Conversion Shares upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate
or certificates pursuant to Section 3(c)(ii) by the Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Business Day (increasing to $20 per
Business Day on the fifth (5th) Business Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Business Day after
such Share Delivery Date until such certificates are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion. Nothing herein shall limit a
Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 4 hereof for the Company’s
failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies
available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive
relief. 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.


 




    	 	3	 



     


    

  


(v)         Shares
Issuable Upon Conversion. All shares of Common Stock that shall be issuable hereunder shall, upon issue, be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and, if a registration statement is then effective under the Securities Act, shall
be registered for public resale in accordance with such registration statement.


 


(vi)        Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Note. As to
any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall round
up to the next whole share.


 


(vii)       Transfer
Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Note shall be made without
charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery
of such certificates, provided that, the Company 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 this Note
so converted and the Company 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 Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction
of the Company that such tax has been paid. The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees required for same-day processing of any
Notice of Conversion.


 


(d)          Beneficial
Ownership. The Company shall not effect the conversion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert this
Note, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates and any
other Persons acting as a group together with such Holder) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”)
of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence,
the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates shall include the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made,
but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this
Note beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion
of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates (including, without limitation, any
convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the
limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership
shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
it being acknowledged that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d)
of the Exchange Act, and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. For purposes
of this Note, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock as reflected in (1) the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or
other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the
Company or (3) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.
For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, where such request indicates that it is being made
pursuant to this Note, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of
shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after
giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder and its affiliates
since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the
Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% specified
in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is
delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder.

appeal, or are not discharged within sixty (60) days after the expiration of such stay; provided, however, that any judgment which

this Note to be immediately due and payable (or this Note becomes due and payable following an Event of Default under Section
4(a)(iv) or 4(a)(v)), the Company shall pay the sum of the Outstanding Note Obligations to the Holder within five (5)

(a)          Transfer.
The Company may, as a condition to the transfer of any of this Note, require that the request for transfer be accompanied by an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transfer does not result in a violation
of the Securities Act, unless such transfer is covered by an effective registration statement or by Rule 144 or Rule 144A under
the Securities Act; provided, however, that an opinion of counsel shall not be required for a transfer by a Holder
that is (i) a partnership transferring to its partners or former partners in accordance with partnership interests, (ii) a corporation

warranties of a “Purchaser” set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement, (B) the Company satisfies itself that the number
of transferees is sufficiently limited and (C) in the case of transferees that are partners or limited liability company members,
the transfer is for no consideration. It is understood that the certificates evidencing any Notes may bear substantially the following

“NEITHER THIS NOTE NOR THE SECURITIES
ISSUABLE UPON THE CONVERSION HEREOF HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (i) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN

IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (ii) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE
144A UNDER SAID ACT.”


 




    	 	7	 



     


    

  


If this Note is to be transferred in compliance
with the foregoing, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver
upon the order of the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 9(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing
the outstanding Principal being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the entire outstanding Principal is being transferred,
a new Note (in accordance with Section 9(d)) to the Holder representing the outstanding Principal not being transferred.


 


(b)          Lost,
Stolen or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Note, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of an indemnification undertaking by the
Holder to the Company, in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Company
shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 9(d)) representing the outstanding Principal.


 


(c)          Note
Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal
office of the Company, for a new Note or Notes (in accordance with Section 9(d)) representing in the aggregate the outstanding
Principal of this Note, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by the
Holder at the time of such surrender.


 


(d)          Issuance
of New Notes. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, such new Note (i) shall
be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Note, the Principal remaining outstanding
(or in the case of a new Note being issued pursuant to Section 9(a) or Section 9(c), the Principal designated by
the Holder which, when added to the principal represented by the other new Notes issued in connection with such issuance, does
not exceed the Principal remaining outstanding under this Note immediately prior to such issuance of new Notes), (iii) shall have
an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Note which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Note, (iv) shall have
the same rights and conditions as this Note, and (v) shall represent accrued and unpaid Interest of this Note from the Issuance
Date.


 


10.         REMEDIES,
CHARACTERIZATIONS, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.


 


(a)          The
remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity (including
a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and, subject to Section 10(b), nothing herein shall limit
the Holder’s right to pursue monetary damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. Amounts
set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be
received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or
the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm
to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event
of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction
restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.


 


(b)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the right of the Holder to receive payment of Principal and Interest on this Note, on or after the respective due
dates set forth herein, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such right to payment, shall not be impaired or affected without
the consent of the Holder.

11.         PAYMENT
OF COLLECTION, ENFORCEMENT AND OTHER COSTS. If (a) this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement
or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or the Holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this
Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the Company
or other proceedings affecting Company creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Note, then the Company shall pay
the costs incurred by the Holder for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization,
receivership or other proceeding, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements.


 


12.         CONSTRUCTION;
HEADINGS. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the Holder and shall not be construed against
any person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Note are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect
the interpretation of, this Note.


 


13.         FAILURE
OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other
or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.


 


14.         NOTICES;
PAYMENTS.


 


(a)          Notices.
All notices, requests, consents, and other communications under this Note shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered (i)

Whenever any payment of cash is to be made by the Company to any Person pursuant to this Note, such payment shall be made in lawful
money of the United States of America by a check drawn on the account of the Company and sent via overnight courier service to

(c)          Withholding
Taxes. All payments made by the Company hereunder shall be made without withholding for or on account of any present or future
taxes (other than overall net income taxes imposed on the recipient). If any such withholding is so required, the Company shall
make the withholding, pay the amount withheld to the appropriate authority before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues
thereon and pay to the recipient such additional amount as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by
the recipient free and clear of such taxes (including taxes on such additional amount) is equal to the amount that the recipient
would have received had such withholding not been made. If the recipient is required to pay any such taxes, penalties or interest,
the Company shall reimburse the recipient for that payment on demand. If the Company pays any such taxes, penalties or interest,
it shall deliver official tax receipts or other evidence of payment to the recipient on whose account such withholding was made
on or before the thirtieth day after payment. The Holder agrees to provide, promptly following the Company’s request therefore,
such forms or certifications as it is legally able to provide to establish an exemption from, or a reduction in, any withholding
taxes that might otherwise apply.
