CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE


 


FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
BLACKSTAR ENTERPRISE GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the “Borrower”), hereby promises
to pay to the order of SIXTH STREET LENDING LLC, a Virginia limited liability company, or registered assigns (the “Holder”)
the sum of $45,750.00 together with any interest as set forth herein, on November 29, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”), and
to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof at the rate of ten percent (10%)(the “Interest Rate”) per annum
from the date hereof (the “Issue Date”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether
at maturity or upon acceleration or by prepayment or otherwise. 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 when due shall bear interest at
the rate of twenty two percent (22%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid (“Default Interest”).
Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest shall commence accruing
on the Issue Date but shall not be payable until the Note becomes payable (whether at Maturity Date or upon acceleration or by
prepayment). All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock, $0.001 par value per share (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. Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto
in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the “Purchase
Agreement”).


 


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 terms shall
apply to this Note:


 


Article
I. CONVERSION RIGHTS


 


1.1              
 Conversion Right. The Holder shall have
the right from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days following
the date of this Note and ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of payment of the Default




    	1 



    	 



    

Amount (as defined in Article III), each in
respect of the remaining outstanding amount of this Note to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount 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, except as otherwise provided in clause
(1) of such proviso. The beneficial ownership limitations on conversion as set forth in the section may NOT be waived by the
Holder. 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 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 before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York
time on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”); however, if the Notice of Conversion is sent after 6:00pm, New
York, New York time the Conversion Date shall be the next business day. 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 1.4 hereof.


 


1.2              
Conversion Price. The conversion price
(the “Conversion Price”) shall equal the Variable Conversion Price (as defined herein) (subject to equitable adjustments
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). 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 average of the two (2) lowest Trading Prices (as defined below) for the Common Stock during the fifteen (15) Trading
Day period ending on the latest complete Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date. “Trading Price” means, for any security
as of any date, the closing bid price on the OTCQB, OTCQX, Pink Sheets electronic quotation system or applicable trading market
(the “OTC”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”) designated by the Holder
(i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTC 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 or, if no closing bid price of such
security is available in any of the foregoing manners, the average of the closing bid prices of any market makers for such security
that are listed in the “pink sheets”. 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 reasonably determined by the Borrower. “Trading
Day”




    	2 



    	 



    

shall mean any day on which the Common Stock
is tradable for any period on the OTC, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock
is then being traded.


 


1.3              
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
issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved six times the
number of shares that would be issuable upon full conversion of the Note (assuming that the 4.99% limitation set forth in Section
1.1 is not in effect)(based on the respective Conversion Price of the Note (as defined in Section 1.2) in effect from time to time,
initially 21,436,938 shares)(the “Reserved
Amount”). The Reserved Amount shall be increased (or decreased with the written consent of the Holder) 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 Note.
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.


 


1.4              
Method of Conversion.


 


(a)               
Mechanics of Conversion. As set forth
in Section 1.1 hereof, from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on the date which is one hundred eighty (180)
days following the date of this Note and ending on the later of: (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of payment of the Default
Amount, 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 (upon payment in full of any amounts owed hereunder). 


 


(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. 


 


(c)                
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




    	3 



    	 



    

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 and the Purchase Agreement.
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 hereunder, 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.


 


(d)               
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 set forth herein, 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 and Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”)
system.


 


(e)               
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 due
to action and/or inaction of the Borrower, 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 (the “Fail to Deliver Fee”); provided; however that the
Fail to Deliver Fee shall not be due if the failure is a result of a third party (i.e., transfer agent; and not the result of any
failure to pay such transfer agent) despite the best efforts of the Borrower to effect delivery of 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(e) are justified.


 


1.5              
 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




    	4 



    	 



    

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
(such as Rule 144 or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”); or (iii) 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 (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).


 


Any restrictive legend on
certificates representing shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be removed and the Borrower shall
issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received
an opinion of counsel from Holder’s counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
transactions, to the effect that (i) a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the
Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company 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 an exemption from registration. In the event that the Company
does not reasonably 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), at the Deadline, it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to Section
3.2 of the Note.


 


1.6              
Effect of Certain Events.


 


(a)               
Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc.
At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the
effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the
Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with or into any other Person
(as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall be deemed to be an Event of Default (as defined in Article
III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of and as a condition to such
transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III). “Person” shall mean any individual,
corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.


 


(b)               
Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc.
If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of the Note, there shall be any merger,
consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common
Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities
of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower
other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have
the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu
of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder
would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction
(without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with
respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation,
provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter
be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion
hereof. The Borrower shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent
practicable, ten (10)




    	5 



    	 



    

days prior written notice (but in any event
at least five (5) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders to approve, or if there
is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization or
other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b) the resulting
successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Note. The above provisions
shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.


 


(c)                
Adjustment Due to Distribution. If the
Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a
dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower’s
shareholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a “Distribution”),
then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining shareholders
entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the
record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to such Distribution.


 


1.7              
Prepayment. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Note, at any time during the periods set forth on the table immediately following this paragraph
(the “Prepayment Periods”) or as otherwise agreed to between the Borrower and the Holder, the Borrower shall have the
right, exercisable on not more than three (3) Trading Days prior written notice to the Holder of the Note to prepay the outstanding
Note (principal and accrued interest), in full, in accordance with this Section 1.7. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an “Optional
Prepayment Notice”) shall be delivered to the Holder of the Note at its registered addresses and shall state: (1) that the
Borrower is exercising its right to prepay the Note, and (2) the date of prepayment which shall be not more than three (3) Trading
Days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice. On the date fixed for prepayment (the “Optional Prepayment Date”),
the Borrower shall make payment of the Optional Prepayment Amount (as defined below) to Holder, or upon the direction of the Holder
as specified by the Holder in a writing to the Borrower (which shall direction to be sent to Borrower by the Holder at least one
(1) business day prior to the Optional Prepayment Date). If the Borrower exercises its right to prepay the Note, the Borrower shall
make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to the percentage (“Prepayment Percentage”) as set forth in the
table immediately following this paragraph opposite the applicable Prepayment Period, multiplied by the sum of: (w) the then outstanding
principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note to the
Optional Prepayment Date plus (y) Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in clauses (w) and (x) plus
(z) any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Section 1.4 hereof (the “Optional Prepayment Amount”).


 


	Prepayment Period	Prepayment Percentage
	                1.    The period beginning on the Issue Date and ending on the date which is sixty (60) days following the Issue Date.	120%

    	6 



    	 



    

 


	4.     The period beginning on the date that is one hundred twenty-one (121) days from the Issue Date and ending one hundred eighty (180) days following the Issue Date.	135%


 


After the expiration of
the Prepayment Periods set forth above, the Borrower may submit an Optional Prepayment Notice to the Holder. Upon receipt by the
Holder of the Optional Prepayment Notice post Prepayment Periods, the prepayment shall be subject to the Holder’s and the
Borrower’s agreement with respect to the applicable Prepayment Percentage.


 


Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, the Holder’s conversion rights herein shall not be affected in any way until the Note is
fully paid (funds received by the Holder) pursuant to an Optional Prepayment Notice.


 


Article
II.  CERTAIN COVENANTS


 


2.1              
Sale of Assets. So long as the Borrower
shall have any obligation under this Note, the Borrower shall not, without the Holder’s written consent, sell, lease or otherwise
dispose of any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business. Any consent to the disposition of any
assets may be conditioned on a specified use of the proceeds of disposition.


 


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 and Interest.
The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Note, whether at maturity or upon acceleration
and such breach continues for a period of five (5) days after written notice from the Holder.


 


3.2              
Conversion and the Shares. The Borrower
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) any certificate for 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) any certificate for 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 certificate for 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 forty-eight (48) hours of a demand from the Holder.

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

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 or the Purchase Agreement.


 


3.5              
Receiver or Trustee. The Borrower or any
subsidiary of the Borrower shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the appointment of

Cessation of Operations.Any cessation
of operations by Borrower or Borrower admits it is otherwise generally unable to pay its debts as such debts become due, provided,
however, that any disclosure of the Borrower’s ability to continue as a “going concern” shall not be an admission
that the Borrower cannot pay its debts as they become due.


 


3.11          
Financial Statement Restatement.The
restatement of any financial statements filed by the Borrower with the SEC at any time after 180 days after the Issuance Date for
any date or period until this Note is no longer outstanding, if the result of such restatement would, by comparison to the un-restated
financial statement, have constituted a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note or the Purchase
Agreement.


 


3.12

covenant or other term or condition contained in any of the Other Agreements, after the passage of all applicable notice and cure
or grace periods, shall, at the option of the Holder, be considered a default under this Note and the Other Agreements, in which
event the Holder shall be entitled (but in no event required) to apply all rights and remedies of the Holder under the terms of
this Note and the Other Agreements by reason of a default under said Other Agreement or hereunder. “Other Agreements”
means, collectively, all agreements and instruments between, among or by: (1) the Borrower, and, or for the benefit of, (2) the
Holder and any affiliate of the Holder, including, without limitation, promissory notes; provided, however, the term “Other
Agreements” shall not include the related or companion documents to this Note. Each of the loan transactions will be cross-defaulted
with each other loan transaction and with all other existing and future debt of Borrower to the Holder.


 


Upon the occurrence and during the continuation
of any Event of Default specified in Section 3.1 (solely with respect to failure to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon
when due at the Maturity Date), the Note shall become immediately due and payable and the Borrower shall pay to the Holder, in
full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined herein).  UPON THE OCCURRENCE
AND DURING THE CONTINUATION OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT SPECIFIED IN SECTION 3.2, THE NOTE SHALL BECOME IMMEDIATELY DUE AND PAYABLE
AND THE BORROWER SHALL PAY TO THE HOLDER, IN FULL SATISFACTION OF ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO: (Y) THE DEFAULT
AMOUNT (AS DEFINED HEREIN); MULTIPLIED BY (Z) TWO (2). Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default
specified in Sections 3.1 (solely with respect to failure to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon when due on this Note
or upon acceleration), 3.3, 3.4, 3.7, 3.8, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, and/or 3.14 exercisable through the delivery of written notice
to the Borrower by such Holders (the “Default Notice”), and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified the
remaining sections of Articles III (other than failure to pay the principal hereof or interest thereon at the Maturity Date specified
in Section 3,1 hereof), the Note shall become immediately due and payable and the Borrower shall pay to the Holder, in full satisfaction
of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to the greater of (i) 150% times the sum of (w) the then outstanding
principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of this Note to the date
of payment (the “Mandatory Prepayment Date”) plus (y) Default Interest, if any, on the amounts referred to in
clauses (w) and/or (x) plus (z) any amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Section 1.4(e) hereof (the then outstanding principal
amount of this Note to the date of payment plus the amounts referred to in clauses (x), (y) and (z) shall collectively be
known as the “Default Amount”) and all other amounts payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable, all
without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including, without limitation,
legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at
law or in equity. 


 


If the Borrower fails to
pay the Default Amount within five (5) business days of written notice that such amount is due and payable, then the Holder shall
have the right at any time, so long as the Borrower remains in default (and so long and to the extent that there are sufficient
authorized shares), to require the Borrower, upon written notice, to immediately issue, in lieu of the Default Amount, the number
of shares of Common Stock of the Borrower equal to the Default Amount divided by the Conversion Price then in effect.
