CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE


 



	$105,000	April 18, 2011










FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, AMHN, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of First Conquest Investment Group, L.L.C., or any future permitted holder of this instrument (the “Payee”), at the principal office of the Payee set forth herein, or at such other place as the Payee may designate in writing to the Company, the principal sum of One Hundred Five Thousand Dollars ($105,000), in such currency of the United States of America as at the time shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts and in immediately available funds, as provided in this convertible promissory note (the “Note”).







1.           Terms of Note:







(a)           The Payee purchased the right, title and interest to $105,000 of a debt owed by the Company pursuant to a Debt Assignment Agreement dated February 20, 2010 (the “Debt”). The Debt was subsequently memorialized as part of a Promissory Note issued by the Company on November 9, 2010 in the principal amount of $210,000 (the “November 2010 Note”).







(b)           In consideration of the Payee’s forbearance not to make demand for repayment of the Debt for a minimum of sixty (60) days from the date hereof, the Company agreed to cancel the November 2010 Note and issue this Note pursuant to the terms outlined herein.







(c)           The Company shall repay in full the entire principal balance then outstanding under this Note upon demand.







(c)           The Note shall bear interest at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum, payable in cash at the end of each calendar quarter beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2011, which amount the Payee may accrue at its option.







(d)           The Note shall not be convertible until the Maturity Date.







2.           Conversion Option; Issuance of Certificates.







(a)           At the Maturity Date, the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus any accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable in cash; provided, however, the Payee shall have the sole option to convert on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal amount of this Note into such number of shares of common stock of the Company, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), equal to the principal amount of this Note being converted divided by the Fixed Conversion Price. For


 




  





  











  






 


purposes of this Note, “Fixed Conversion Price” shall mean $0.0105 per share. Upon conversion of this Note into shares of Common Stock, the outstanding principal amount of this Note shall be deemed to be the consideration for the Payee’s interest in such shares of Common Stock.







(b)           In the event that the Payee elects to convert this Note into shares of Common Stock on the Maturity Date, the Company shall, not later than five (5) trading days after the conversion of this Note, issue and deliver to the Payee by express courier a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion of this Note.







3.           Conversion Provisions.







(a)           No Adjustment of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall not be subject to adjustment at any time for any future stock split, stock combination, dividend or distribution of any kind.







(b)           Issue Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all issue and other taxes, excluding federal, state or local income taxes, that may be payable in respect of any issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock on conversion of this Note pursuant thereto; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes resulting from any transfer requested by any holder in connection with any such conversion.







(c)           Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the Payee would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the average of the closing bid prices of the Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion of this Note.







(d)           Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times when this Note shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of this Note.







(e)           Registration. The Investor understands that as of the date of this transaction, the Company is a reporting company that files regular financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Investor further understands that this Note, and any shares issuable upon its conversion, (i) has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities law and may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless registered under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws or (ii) the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel that registration of such securities under the Securities Act and under the provisions of applicable state securities laws is not required.







4.           No Rights as Shareholder. Nothing contained in this Note shall be construed as conferring upon the Payee, prior to the conversion of this Note, the right to vote or to receive dividends or to consent or to receive notice as a shareholder in respect of any meeting of shareholders for the election of directors of the Company or of any other matter, or any other rights as a shareholder of the Company.







5.           Payment on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made shall be due on a Saturday, Sunday or a public holiday under the laws of the State of Nevada, such payment may be due on the next succeeding business day.

15.           Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note, at law or in equity (including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), no remedy contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise to such remedy and nothing herein shall limit a Payee’s right to pursue actual 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 Payee 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 and material harm to the Payee and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. Therefore the Company agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Payee shall be entitled, in addition to all other available rights and remedies, at law or in equity, to seek and obtain such equitable relief, including but not limited to an injunction restraining any such breach or threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

No failure or delay on the part of the Payee 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.







17.           Enforcement Expenses. The Company agrees to pay all costs and expenses of enforcement of this Note, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.







18.           Binding Effect. The obligations of the Company and the Payee set forth herein shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each such party, whether or not such successors or assigns are permitted by the terms hereof.







19.           Compliance with Securities Laws.
