Interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days for the actual number of days elapsed. 
  
 1. Convertible Loan Agreement. This Note is being issued in conjunction with that certain Convertible Loan Agreement of even date herewith (the “Loan Agreement”) where the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings prescribed for in the Loan Agreement. The debts, liabilities and obligations of Obligor to Payee under this Note, including all unpaid principal and all interest accrued hereon, whether due or to become due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined shall be referred to as the “Obligations”.

 2. Interest Rate. The outstanding principal amount shall bear interest from the date of this Note at a rate of six percent (6%) per annum, where said interest shall accrue and be paid on a quarterly basis; provided, however, in the event that the Obligor has obtained, or entered into an agreement to obtain, additional capital and/or financing during the Financing Period (as defined in the Loan Agreement) bearing a minimum rate of return, preferred return or interest rate in excess of the then stated interest rate of this Note, this Note shall immediately bear interest at the higher rate, where said increase shall be effective upon the date on which the higher rate starts to accrue. Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of three hundred sixty (360) days.
  
 3. Default Rate. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined herein) under this Note or the Loan Agreement, interest shall accrue on all outstanding principal at a rate equal to the Interest Rate plus six percent (6%) per annum (the “Default Rate”). 
  
 4. Prepayment. This Note may not be prepaid by the Company without the prior written consent of the Payee.

 7. Maturity Date. In the event Payee does not receive all permits, licenses and approvals which are required to be obtained from Regulatory Authorities in order to own and operate the MME Production Facility by May 1, 2018, this Note shall become due and payable in equal quarterly payments of principal and interest due thereon in lawful money of the United States of America, with the first such payment being due on August 1, 2018.
  
 8. Cancellation of Note. Upon payment in full of all principal and interest payable hereunder, or upon conversion of this Note into Membership Interests of NuLeaf Reno Production, LLC, this Note shall be surrendered to Obligor for cancellation. 
  
 9. Events of Default. Any of the following events which shall occur shall constitute an “Event of Default”:
  
 a. Obligor shall fail to pay when due any amount of principal or interest hereunder or other amount payable hereunder, where such failure continues for five (5) days after receipt of written notice from Payee specifying such failure; or
  
 b. Any representation or warranty made or furnished by or on behalf of Obligor to Payee in writing in connection with this Note or the Loan Agreement shall be false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect when made or furnished.

If the Indebtedness presented by this Note or any part thereof is collected at law or in equity or in bankruptcy, receivership or other judicial proceedings or if this Note is placed in the hands of attorneys for collection after default, Obligor agrees to pay, in addition to the principal and interest payable thereon, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by Payee.
  
 13. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of the Note, nor consent to any departure by Obligor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Payee and the Obligor, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
