AND THE CONVERSION SHARES, HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE


 


FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
Coates International, Ltd. a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), promises to pay to Group 10 Holdings LLC
(the “Holder”) or its registered assigns or successors in interest, the sum of Seventy Three Thousand Five Hundred
Dollars ($73,500), together with all accrued interest thereon, on the one year anniversary from the Effective Date, as hereinafter
defined (the “Maturity Date”), if not sooner paid.


 


The following terms and conditions shall apply
to this Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”):


 


ARTICLE
I 

INTEREST & AMORTIZATION


 


1.1        Contract
Rate. Subject to Sections 4.1 and 5.7 hereof, interest payable on this Debenture shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to
8% (Eight Percent) and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year. 


 


1.2        Consideration.
The principal sum of this Debenture is Seventy Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($73,500) plus accrued and unpaid interest
and any other fees. The purchase price paid by Holder for the Debenture, which is the consideration received by Borrower for the
Debenture, is Seventy Thousand Dollars ($70,000) payable by wire transfer or other immediately available funds. Thus, as of the
Effective Date, there exists a Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollar ($3,500) Original Issue Discount (the “OID”). Interest
shall accrue and be payable on the full principal amount of the Debenture, inclusive of the OID, and payment of the full principal
amount (inclusive of OID) shall be required regardless of time and manner of payment or prepayment by Borrower. Upon conversion,
Holder shall receive credit for the full principal amount converted (inclusive of the OID).


 


1.3        Payments.
Payment of the aggregate principal amount outstanding under this Debenture (the “Principal Amount”),
together with all accrued interest thereon shall be made on the Maturity Date.


 


1.4        Prepayment Option.
Subject to the approval of the Holder for prepayments after 180 days, the Borrower may prepay in cash all or any portion of the
Principal Amount of this Debenture and accrued interest thereon, with a premium, as set forth below (each a “Prepayment
Premium”), upon ten (10) business days prior written notice to the Holder. The Holder shall have the right to convert
all or any portion of the Principal Amount and accrued interest thereon in accordance with Article II hereof during such ten (10)
business day notice period. The amount of such prepayment premium shall be determined by multiplying that portion of the Principal
Amount and accrued interest to be converted, if any, by the then applicable prepayment percentage (the “Prepayment Percentage”).
The Prepayment Percentage shall be as follows: (i) 15%, (Fifteen percent) if there is a Prepayment at any time from the Effective
Date until 120 (One Hundred Twenty) days after the Effective Date; (ii) 20%,(Twenty Percent) if there is a Prepayment at any time
from 121 days after the Effective Date until 150 (One Hundred Fifty) days after the Effective Date; and (iii) 45% (Forty Five Percent),
if there is a Prepayment at any time 151 (One Hundred Fifty One) days after the Effective Date.


 






    	 



    	 



    




 


ARTICLE
II 

CONVERSION REPAYMENT


 


2.1.       Optional Conversion. Subject to the terms of this Article II, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation,
at any time after the Effective Date and until the Maturity Date, or thereafter during an Event of Default, to convert all or any
portion of the outstanding Principal Amount, accrued interest and fees due and payable thereon into fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock of the Borrower (the “Common Stock”) at the Conversion
Price (as defined below). The shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such conversion are herein referred to as the “Conversion
Shares.” 


 


2.2.       Calculation
of Conversion Price. The conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall
be subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Borrower relating to the Borrower’s
securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Borrower, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary
distributions and similar events. Subject to Section 4.6 hereof, the Conversion Price shall mean the lesser of (a) Sixty
Five Percent (65%) multiplied by the average of the two lowest closing bid prices of the Borrower’s Common Stock during
the twenty (20) trading days prior to the date a Notice of Conversion is given, (which represents a discount rate of Thirty Five
Percent (35%)) or (b) Five and a half cents ($0.055). In the event that Coates International Ltd., common stock prices closes
below Two Cents ($0.02) for three (3) consecutive trading days prior to a Notice of Conversion the Conversion Price shall increase
to Sixty Percent (60%) multiplied by the average of the two lowest closing bid prices of the Borrower’s Common Stock during
the twenty (20) trading days prior to the date a Notice of Conversion is given, (which represents a discount rate of Forty Percent
(40%)) For purposes of this Section 2.2 the term “Closing Bid Price” means the closing bid price on the Over-the-Counter
Bulletin Board or applicable trading market (the “OTC Market”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting
Service”) designated by the Holder (i.e., Bloomberg) or, if the OTC Market is not the principal trading market for
such security, the closing bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security
is listed or traded.


 


2.3.       Conversion Limitation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the number of Conversion Shares
that may be acquired by the Holder upon conversion of this Debenture (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent
necessary to ensure that, following such conversion (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially
owned by such Holder and its affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with
the Holder's for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
does not exceed 4.99% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares
of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  By written notice to the Company,
the Holder may increase, decrease or waive the provisions of this Section 2.3 as to itself but any such waiver will not be effective
until the 61st  (Sixty first) day after delivery thereof. 


 


2.4.       Mechanics
of Holder’s Conversion. Subject to Section 2.3 hereof, this Debenture will be converted by the Holder in part from time
to time after the Effective Date, by submitting to the Borrower and/or the transfer agent of record (i) a notice of conversion
(“Notice of Conversion”), and (ii) an opinion of counsel obtained by Holder
at its own cost and expense (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from
such registration or such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule
144”), (whether by facsimile, as a Portable Document (PDF) file sent by electronic mail or other reasonable means of communication
dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time). On each Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined)
and in accordance with its Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall make the appropriate reduction to the Principal Amount, accrued
interest and fees as entered in its records and shall provide written notice thereof to the Borrower on the Conversion Date. Each
date on which a Notice of Conversion is delivered or telecopied in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion
Date (the “Conversion Date”). A form of Notice of Conversion to be employed
by the Holder is annexed hereto as Exhibit A. Pursuant to the terms of the Notice of Conversion, provided there are no
errors in the Notice of Conversion and/or any reasonable objections to the content of the opinion of counsel regarding the Rule
144 opinion referred to above, (“Holder Conversion Delays”), Borrower shall issue instructions to the transfer agent
within one (1) business day from the receipt of the Notice of Conversion and shall cause the transfer agent to transmit the certificates
representing the Conversion Shares to the Holder by physical delivery or crediting the account of the Holder’s designated
broker with the Depository Trust Corporation (“DTC”) through its Deposit
Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system within three (3) business days
after receipt by Borrower of the Notice of Conversion (the “Delivery Date”).
In the event of a Holder Conversion Delay, these conversion timeframes shall be extended accordingly, for the amount of time required
to resolve such Holder Conversion Delays. In the case of the exercise of the conversion rights set forth herein, the conversion
privilege shall be deemed to have been exercised, and the Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have
been issued, upon the date of receipt by Borrower of the Notice of Conversion. The Holder shall be treated for all purposes as
the record holder of such Common Stock, unless the Holder provides Borrower written instructions to the contrary.


 






    	2



    	 



    




 


2.5.       Late
Payments. The Borrower understands that a delay in the delivery of the shares of Common Stock in the form required pursuant
to this Article II beyond the Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Holder. As compensation to the Holder for such
loss the Borrower agrees to pay late fees to the Holder for late issuance of such shares in the form required pursuant to this
Article II upon conversion of the Debenture, in the amount equal to One Thousand U.S Dollars ($1,000) per business day after the
Delivery Date. The Borrower shall pay any fees incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand and such
fees shall also be eligible to be converted into Conversion Shares as set forth in this Article II. 


 


2.6       Conversion
Mechanics. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Debenture shall be determined by
dividing that portion of the Principal Amount and interest and fees to be converted, if any, by the then applicable Conversion
Price.


 


2.7        Authorized
and Reserved Shares. The Borrower represents and warrants and covenants and agrees that upon issuance, the Conversion Shares
will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Debenture shall
constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute
and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Debenture.
At all times during which this Debenture is outstanding, the Borrower shall reserve from its authorized and unissued shares of
Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Conversion Shares. The Borrower agrees that it will
take all such reasonable actions as may be necessary to assure that the Conversion Shares may be issued as provided herein without
violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the applicable trading market upon which the Common Stock
may be listed. The Borrower agrees to reserve Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares of Common Stock from its authorized and unissued
shares within 3 (three) business days from the Effective date. Further, the Borrower agrees to provide the Holder with confirmation
evidencing the execution of the share reservation within 3 (three) business days from the Effective Date.


 


2.8        Issuance
of New Debenture. Upon any partial conversion of this Debenture, a new Debenture containing the same date and provisions of
this Debenture shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance of this
Debenture and interest which shall not have been converted or paid. Subject to the provisions of Article III, the Borrower will
pay no costs, fees or any other consideration to the Holder for the production and issuance of a new Debenture. Holder will forebear
from requiring the issuance of new debentures as partial conversions are effected, unless it has valid business benefit therefor.


 


2.9        Fractional Shares.
No fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Debenture. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise
be entitled to upon such conversion, the Borrower shall round up to the next whole share.


 






    	3



    	 



    




 


2.10      Par Value; Further
Assurances.


 


             (a)          The
Borrower covenants that during the period that the Principal Amount of the Debenture and any accrued interest and fees thereon
remain outstanding, it will ensure that the par value of any Conversion Shares shall not exceed the amount payable therefor upon
such exercise immediately prior to such exercise. The Borrower further covenants that it shall take all appropriate actions, including,
without limitation, amending its articles or certificate of incorporation and any other voluntary action, such as calling a meeting
of shareholders to approve any such amendment, to ensure that the amount payable for any Conversion Shares shall at all times
exceed the par value thereof by at least Four Hundred Percent (400%).


 


             (b)          Except and to the extent as waived or consented to
by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its articles or certificate of incorporation
or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Debenture, but will at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or
appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Debenture against impairment. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Borrower will (a) not increase the par value of any Conversion Shares above the amount payable therefor
upon such exercise immediately prior to such exercise, (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that
the Borrower may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Conversion Shares upon the exercise of this Debenture
and (c) use its commercially best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory
body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Borrower to perform its obligations under this Debenture.

INCLUDING CLAIMS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW OR STATUTORY BASES. Each party hereby submits
to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the County of Miami-Dade, State of Florida. If the jury

5.8        Construction.
Borrower acknowledges that it had the opportunity to have its legal counsel participate in the preparation of this Debenture and,
therefore, stipulates that the rule of construction that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be
