CONVERTIBLE
PROMISSORY NOTE


 


FOR
VALUE RECEIVED, FTE NETWORKS, INC., a Nevada corporation (hereinafter called the “Borrower”), hereby promises
to pay to the order of CROWN BRIDGE PARTNERS, LLC, a New York limited liability company, or registered assigns (the “Holder”)
the principal sum of $100,000.00 (the “Principal Amount”), together with interest at the rate of five percent (5%)
per annum, at maturity or upon acceleration or otherwise, as set forth herein (the “Note”). The consideration to the
Borrower for this Note is $90,000.00 (the “Consideration”). The Holder shall pay the Consideration within a reasonable
amount of time of the full execution of the transactional documents related to this Note. The maturity date shall be twelve (12)
months from the Issue Date (the “Maturity Date”), and is the date upon which the principal sum, as well as any accrued
and unpaid interest and other fees, shall be due and payable. This Note may not be prepaid in whole or in part except as otherwise
explicitly set forth herein. Any amount of principal or interest on this Note, which is not paid by the Maturity Date, shall bear
interest at the rate of the lesser of (i) fifteen percent (15%) per annum or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law from the
due date thereof until the same is paid (“Default Interest”). Interest shall commence accruing on the date that the
Note is fully paid and shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. All payments due
hereunder (to the extent not converted into the Borrower’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) in accordance with
the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be made at such address as
the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Whenever
any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead
be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the case of any interest payment date which is not the date
on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining
the amount of interest due on such date. As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than
a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive
order to remain closed.

This
Note carries a prorated original issue discount of $10,000.00 (the “OID”), to cover the Holder’s accounting
fees, due diligence fees, monitoring, and/or other transactional costs incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the
Note, which is included in the principal balance of this Note. Thus, the purchase price of this Note shall be $90,000.00, computed
as follows: the Principal Amount minus the OID.


 


This
Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive
rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.


 


The
following additional terms shall apply to this Note:


 


ARTICLE
I. CONVERSION RIGHTS


 


1.1
Conversion Right. The Holder shall have the right at any time to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid
principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest of this Note into fully paid and non- assessable shares of Common Stock, as such
Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common
Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) determined as provided
herein (a “Conversion”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert
any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially
owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security
of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note with respect to which the determination of
this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations
13D-G thereunder. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing
the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice
of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), delivered to the Borrower or
Borrower’s transfer agent by the Holder in accordance with Section 1.4 below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is
submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower
or Borrower’s transfer agent before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”).
The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the sum of (1) the principal amount
of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, plus (3) at the Holder’s
option, Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4)
at the Holder’s option, any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and 1.4(g) hereof.


 




    	2



    	 



    

 


1.2
Conversion Price.


 


(a)
Calculation of Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be the Variable Conversion Price (as defined herein) (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) (also subject to adjustment as further described herein). The “Variable Conversion Price”
shall mean 65% multiplied by the Market Price (as defined herein) (representing a discount rate of 35%). “Market Price”
means the lowest one (1) Trading Price (as defined below) for the Common Stock during the twenty-one (21) Trading Day period ending
on the last complete Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date. “Trading Price” means, for any security as of any date,
the lowest traded price on the Over-the-Counter Pink Marketplace, OTCQB, or applicable trading market (the “OTCQB”)
as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) designated by the Holder (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if
the OTCQB is not the principal trading market for such security, on the principal securities exchange or trading market where
such security is listed or traded or, if the lowest intraday trading price of such security is not available in any of the foregoing
manners, the lowest intraday price of any market makers for such security that are quoted on the OTC Markets. If the Trading Price
cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value
as mutually determined by the Borrower and the holders of a majority in interest of the Notes being converted for which the calculation
of the Trading Price is required in order to determine the Conversion Price of such Notes. “Trading Day” shall mean
any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTCQB, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities
market on which the Common Stock is then being traded. If at any time while this Note is outstanding, the Conversion Price is
equal to or lower than $6.00, then an additional fifteen percent (15%) discount shall be factored into the Conversion Price until
this Note is no longer outstanding (resulting in a discount rate of 50% assuming no other adjustments are triggered hereunder).
In the event that shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock are not deliverable via DWAC following the conversion of any amount
hereunder, an additional ten percent (10%) discount shall be factored into the Variable Conversion Price until this Note is no
longer outstanding (resulting in a discount rate of 45% assuming no other adjustments are triggered hereunder).


 


Each
time, while this Note is outstanding, the Borrower enters into a Section 3(a)(9) transaction (including but not limited to
the issuance of new promissory notes or of a replacement promissory note), or Section 3(a)(10) transaction, in which any 3rd
party has the right to convert monies owed to that 3rd party (or receive shares pursuant to a settlement or otherwise) at a
discount to market greater than the Variable Conversion Price in effect at that time (prior to all other applicable
adjustments in the Note), then the Variable Conversion Price shall be automatically adjusted to such greater discount
percentage (prior to all applicable adjustments in this Note) until this Note is no longer outstanding. Each time, while this
Note is outstanding, the Borrower enters into a Section 3(a)(9) transaction (including but not limited to the issuance of new
promissory notes or of a replacement promissory note), or Section 3(a)(10) transaction, in which any 3rd party has a look
back period greater than the look back period in effect under the Note at that time, then the Holder’s look back period
shall automatically be adjusted to such greater number of days until this Note is no longer outstanding. The Borrower shall
give written notice to the Holder, with the adjusted Variable Conversion Price and/or adjusted look back period (each
adjustment that is applicable due to the triggering event), within one (1) business day of an event that requires any
adjustment described in the two immediately preceding sentences.


 




    	3



    	 



    

 


Holder
shall be entitled to deduct $500.00 from the conversion amount in each Notice of Conversion to cover Holder’s deposit fees
associated with each Notice of Conversion.


 


If
at any time the Conversion Price as determined hereunder for any conversion would be less than the par value of the Common Stock,
then at the sole discretion of the Holder, the Conversion Price hereunder may equal such par value for such conversion and the
Conversion Amount for such conversion may be increased to include Additional Principal, where “Additional Principal”
means such additional amount to be added to the Conversion Amount to the extent necessary to cause the number of conversion shares
issuable upon such conversion to equal the same number of conversion shares as would have been issued had the Conversion Price
not been adjusted by the Holder to the par value price.


 


(b)
Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve
from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance
of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved eight
times the number of shares that are actually issuable upon full conversion of the Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Notes
in effect from time to time) (the “Reserved Amount”). The Reserved Amount shall be increased from time to time in
accordance with the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly
and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change
to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Notes shall be convertible at
the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be
a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of the outstanding
Notes. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue certificates for the Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note 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 Note.


 


If,
at any time the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under Section 3.2 of
the Note.


 


1.3
Method of Conversion.


 


(a) Mechanics
of Conversion. Subject to Section 1.1, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time
to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or
other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and
(B) subject to Section 1.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower.


 




    	4



    	 



    

 


(b)
Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note
in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless
the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the
principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the
Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute
or discrepancy, such records of the Borrower shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest
error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid, the Holder may not transfer this
Note unless the Holder first physically surrenders this Note to the Borrower, whereupon the Borrower will forthwith issue and
deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Holder (upon payment by the Holder of any applicable
transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note. 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 represented by this Note may be
less than the amount stated on the face hereof.


 


(c)
Payment of Taxes. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved
in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other
than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other
securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such
shares are to be held for the Holder’s account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Borrower the amount
of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax has been paid.


 


(d)
Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail
(or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in
this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder
certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within two (2) business days after such receipt (the “Deadline”)
(and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with
the terms hereof.


 


(e)
Obligation of Borrower to Deliver Common Stock. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall
be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the
amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults
on its obligations under this Article I, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith
terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such
conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue
and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by
the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against
any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower
to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by
the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation
of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion. The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall
be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is received by the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time,
on such date.


 




    	5



    	 



    

 


(f)
Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated
Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained
in Section 1.1 and in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically
transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with
DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system.


 


(g)
Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other
remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of this Note is not delivered by the Deadline (other than a failure due to the circumstances described in Section 1.3
above, which failure shall be governed by such Section) the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $2,000 per day in cash, for each
day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the
fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower
by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note,
in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall
be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a
valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, interference with such conversion right
are difficult if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained
in this Section 1.4(g) are justified.


 


(h)
DTC; Market Loss. If the Borrower fails to maintain its status as “DTC Eligible” for any reason, or, if at
any time while this Note is outstanding the Conversion Price is equal to or lower than $1.00, then the principal amount of the
Note shall increase by Fifteen Thousand and No/100 United States Dollars ($15,000) (under Holder’s and Borrower’s
expectation that any principal amount increase will tack back to the Issue Date) and an additional fifteen percent (15%) discount
shall be factored into the Variable Conversion Price until this Note is no longer outstanding (resulting in a discount rate of
65%, assuming no other adjustments are triggered hereunder except for the additional fifteen percent (15%) discount due to the
Conversion Price being equal to or lower than $6.00 as provided in Section 1.2 of this note).



 






    	6



    	 



    

 


1.4
Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred
unless (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer
agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (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 (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act
(or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”) or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in
Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who
is an Accredited Investor. Except as otherwise provided (and subject to the removal provisions set forth below), until such time
as the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the Act or otherwise may be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately
sold, each certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective
registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits
removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:


 


“NEITHER
THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE
HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT
BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), 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. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT
OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”


 


The
legend set forth above shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer
legend if (i) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary
for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made
without registration under the Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Borrower so that the sale or transfer is effected or
(ii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder
under an effective registration statement filed under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction
as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold. In the event that the Borrower does
not accept the opinion of counsel provided by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from
registration, such as Rule 144 or Regulation S, at the Deadline, it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to Section
3.2 of the Note.


 




    	7



    	 



    

 


1.5
Exchange Cap. Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, and in addition to the beneficial ownership limitations
provided herein, the total number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under this Note, shall be limited to 19.99% of
the Borrower’s outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the date hereof (the “Exchange Cap”), unless stockholder
approval is obtained to issue more than the Exchange Cap. The Exchange Cap shall be appropriately adjusted for any reorganization,
recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar transaction. Unless the Borrower has previously
obtained the stockholder approval to issue more than the Exchange Cap, the Borrower must immediately obtain stockholder approval
to issue more than the Exchange Cap upon receipt of notice from the Holder that the Exchange Cap has been reached under this Note.


 


1.6
Status as Shareholder. Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by a Holder, (i) the shares covered thereby (other than
the shares, if any, which cannot be issued because their issuance would exceed such Holder’s allocated portion of the Reserved
Amount or Maximum Share Amount) shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Holder’s rights as a
Holder of such converted portion of this Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for
such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because
of a failure by the Borrower to comply with the terms of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder has not received
certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the tenth (10th) business day after the expiration of the Deadline with respect
to a conversion of any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless the Holder otherwise elects to retain its status as a
holder of Common Stock by so notifying the Borrower) the Holder shall regain the rights of a Holder of this Note with respect
to such unconverted portions of this Note and the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted Note to the
Holder or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of this Note has not been converted.
In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies (including, without limitation, (i) the right to receive
Conversion Default Payments pursuant to Section 1.3 to the extent required thereby for such Conversion Default and any subsequent
Conversion Default and (ii) the right to have the Conversion Price with respect to subsequent conversions determined in accordance
with Section 1.3) for the Borrower’s failure to convert this Note.


 


ARTICLE
II. CERTAIN COVENANTS


 


2.1 Distributions
on Capital Stock. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not without the
Holder’s written consent (a) pay, declare or set apart for such payment, any dividend or other
distribution (whether in cash, property or other securities) on shares of capital stock other than dividends on shares of
Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any subsidiary
make any other payment or distribution in respect of its capital stock except for distributions pursuant to any
shareholders’ rights plan which is approved by a majority of the Borrower’s disinterested directors.


 


2.2 Restriction
on Stock Repurchases. So long as the Borrower shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not
without the Holder’s written consent redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (whether for cash or in exchange for
property or other securities or otherwise) in any one transaction or series of related transactions any shares of
capital stock of the Borrower or any warrants, rights or options to purchase or acquire any such shares.

ARTICLE
III. EVENTS OF DEFAULT


 


If
any of the following events of default (each, an “Event of Default”) shall occur:


 


3.1 Failure
to Pay Principal or Interest. The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Note,
whether at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and such breach continues for a period of five (5) days.


 


3.2
Conversion and the Shares. The Borrower fails to reserve a sufficient amount of shares of common stock as required under
the terms of this Note (including Section 1.3 of this Note) and such breach continues for a period of five (5) days, fails to
issue shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or announces or threatens in writing that it will not honor its obligation to do so)
upon exercise by the Holder of the conversion rights of the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note, fails to transfer
or cause its transfer agent to transfer (issue) (electronically or in certificated form) shares of Common Stock issued to the
Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by this Note, the Borrower directs its transfer
agent not to transfer or delays, impairs, and/or hinders its transfer agent in transferring (or issuing) (electronically or in
certificated form) shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as
and when required by this Note, or fails to remove (or directs its transfer agent not to remove or impairs, delays, and/or hinders
its transfer agent from removing) any restrictive legend (or to withdraw any stop transfer instructions in respect thereof) on
any shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to this Note as and when required by
this Note (or makes any written announcement, statement or threat that it does not intend to honor the obligations described in
this paragraph) and any such failure shall continue uncured (or any written announcement, statement or threat not to honor its
obligations shall not be rescinded in writing) for two (2) business days after the Holder shall have delivered a Notice of Conversion.
It is an obligation of the Borrower to remain current in its obligations to its transfer agent. It shall be an event of default
of this Note, if a conversion of this Note is delayed, hindered or frustrated due to a balance owed by the Borrower to its transfer
agent. If at the option of the Holder, the Holder advances any funds to the Borrower’s transfer agent in order to process
a conversion, such advanced funds shall be paid by the Borrower to the Holder within five (5) business days of a demand from the
Holder, either in cash or as an addition to the balance of the Note, and such choice of payment method is at the discretion of
the Borrower.


 


3.3
Breach of Covenants. The Borrower breaches any material covenant or other material term or condition contained in this
Note and any collateral documents and such breach continues for a period of ten (10) days after written notice thereof to the
Borrower from the Holder.


 


3.4 Breach
of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty of the Borrower made herein or in any
agreement, statement or certificate given in writing pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, shall be false or misleading
in any material respect when made and the breach of which has (or with the passage of time will have) a material adverse
effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note.


 




    	9

or apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee for it or for a substantial part of its property or business,
or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be appointed.


 


3.6
Judgments. Any money judgment, writ or similar process shall be entered or filed against the Borrower or any subsidiary
of the Borrower or any of its property or other assets for more than $50,000, and shall remain unvacated, unbonded or unstayed
for a period of twenty (20) days unless otherwise consented to by the Holder, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.


 


3.7
Bankruptcy. Bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings, voluntary or involuntary,
for relief under any bankruptcy law or any law for the relief of debtors shall be instituted by or against the Borrower or any
subsidiary of the Borrower.

existing hereunder are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

4.3
Amendments. This Note and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and
the Holder. The term “Note” and all reference thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this instrument
as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented.


 


4.4
Assignability. This Note shall be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to be the benefit
of the Holder and its successors and assigns. Neither the Borrower nor the Holder shall assign this Note or any rights or obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may assign its rights hereunder
to any “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the 1933 Act) in a private transaction from the Holder
or to any of its “affiliates”, as that term is defined under the 1934 Act, without the consent of the Borrower. Notwithstanding
anything in this Note to the contrary, this Note may be pledged as collateral in connection with a bona fide margin account or
other lending arrangement. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that following conversion
of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note represented by this Note may be less than
the amount stated on the face hereof.


 


4.5
Cost of Collection. If default is made in the payment of this Note, the Borrower shall pay the Holder hereof costs of collection,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees.


 


4.6
Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada without
regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated
by this Note shall be brought only in the state and/or federal courts of New York City, NY. The parties to this Note hereby irrevocably
waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack
of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens. The Borrower and Holder waive trial by jury. The prevailing
party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. In the event that any
provision of this Note or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable
statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall
be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under
any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement. Each party hereby irrevocably
waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with
evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service
shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit
in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

4.7
Certain Amounts. Whenever pursuant to this Note the Borrower is required to pay an amount in excess of the outstanding
principal amount (or the portion thereof required to be paid at that time) plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Default Interest
on such interest, the Borrower and the Holder agree that the actual damages to the Holder from the receipt of cash payment on
this Note may be difficult to determine and the amount to be so paid by the Borrower represents stipulated damages and not a penalty
and is intended to compensate the Holder in part for loss of the opportunity to convert this Note and to earn a return from the
sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of this Note at a price in excess of the price paid for such shares pursuant
to this Note. The Borrower and the Holder hereby agree that such amount of stipulated damages is not plainly disproportionate
to the possible loss to the Holder from the receipt of a cash payment without the opportunity to convert this Note into shares
of Common Stock.


 


4.8
Remedies. The Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the
Holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that
the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened
breach by the Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies
at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing
or curing any breach of this Note and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing
economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.


 


4.9
Prepayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, the Borrower may prepay any amount outstanding
under this Note, during the initial 60 calendar day period after the issuance of this Note, by making a payment to the Holder
of an amount in cash equal to 110% multiplied the amount that the Borrower is prepaying, subject to the Holder’s prior written
acceptance in Holder’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, the Borrower may
prepay any amount outstanding under this Note, during the 61st through 120 calendar day period after the issuance of this Note,
by making a payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to 120% multiplied the amount that the Borrower is prepaying, subject
to the Holder’s prior written acceptance in Holder’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Note, the Borrower may prepay any amount outstanding under this Note, during the 121st through 180 calendar day period
after the issuance of this Note, by making a payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to 130% multiplied the amount that
the Borrower is prepaying, subject to the Holder’s prior written acceptance in Holder’s sole discretion. The Borrower
may not prepay any amount outstanding under this Note after the 180th calendar day after the issuance of this Note.


 




    	14



    	 



    

 


4.10
Usury. If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law
governing usury, the applicable provision shall automatically be revised to equal the maximum rate of interest or other amount
deemed interest permitted under applicable law. The Borrower covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall
not seek to claim or take advantage of any law that would prohibit or forgive the Borrower from paying all or a portion of the
principal or interest on this Note.


 


4.11
Section 3(a)(10) Transactions. If at any time while this Note is outstanding, the Borrower enters into a transaction structured
in accordance with, based upon, or related or pursuant to, in whole or in part, Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act (a “3(a)(10)
Transaction”), then a liquidated damages charge of 125% of the outstanding principal balance of this Note at that time,
will be assessed and will become immediately due and payable to the Holder, either in the form of cash payment or as an addition
to the balance of the Note, as determined by mutual agreement of the Borrower and Holder.


 


4.12
Reverse Split Penalty. If at any time while this Note is outstanding, the Borrower effectuates a reverse split with respect
to the Common Stock, then a liquidated damages charge of 125% of the outstanding principal balance of this Note at that time,
will be assessed and will become immediately due and payable to the Holder, either in the form of cash payment or as an addition
to the balance of the Note, as determined by mutual agreement of the Borrower and Holder.


 


4.13
Right of First Refusal. If at any time while this Note is outstanding, the Borrower has a bona fide offer of capital or
financing from any 3rd party, that the Borrower intends to act upon, then the Borrower must first offer such opportunity to the
Holder to provide such capital or financing to the Borrower on the same terms as each respective 3rd party’s terms. Should
the Holder be unwilling or unable to provide such capital or financing to the Borrower within 10 trading days from Holder’s
receipt of written notice of the offer (the “Offer Notice”) from the Borrower, then the Borrower may obtain such capital
or financing from that respective 3rd party upon the exact same terms and conditions offered by the Borrower to the Holder, which
transaction must be completed within 30 days after the date of the Offer Notice. If the Borrower does not receive the capital
or financing from the respective 3rd party within 30 days after the date of the respective Offer Notice, then the Borrower must
again offer the capital or financing opportunity to the Holder as described above, and the process detailed above shall be repeated.
The Offer Notice must be sent via electronic mail to Info@CrownBridgeCapital.com.


 


4.14 ACH
Option. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, at
the Holder’s option, in addition to the right to conversion as set forth above and any other rights and remedies as
set forth herein, the Holder may deduct daily ACH payments from the bank account of the Borrower (or any of its subsidiaries)
in the amount of $10,000.00 per day until such time as the Borrower has paid (or the Holder has converted) an amount equal to
the principal balance, interest, accrued interest, Default Amount and any other fees as set forth in the Note. Borrower shall
provide Holder with all required access codes to effectuate any and all ACH debit transactions as provided for in this Note.
Borrower understands that it is responsible for ensuring that at least the minimum amounts identified above remain in the
Borrower’s bank account (the “Bank Account”) on each business day until this Note is satisfied in full, and
that the Borrower shall be responsible for any charges incurred by the Holder resulting from a rejected ACH attempt,
insufficient funds in the Bank Account, and/or all related bank charges. Such charges shall be immediately added to the
outstanding balance of the Note. Holder shall not be responsible for any overdrafts or rejected transactions that result from
Holder’s ACH debiting of the Borrower’s bank account as provided in this Note.
