shall accrue at the rate of ten (10%) percent per annum and shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year.

upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any of the following events (each, an “Event of Default”):


 


(a)

(b)
the filing by the Borrower of any petition for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any similar federal or state statute,

(c)
an involuntary petition is filed against the Borrower (unless such petition is dismissed or discharged within 60 days) under any bankruptcy
statute now or hereafter in effect, or a custodian, receiver, trustee, assignee for the benefit of creditors (or other similar official)
is appointed to take possession, custody or control of any property of the Borrower; or


 


(d)
the dissolution, winding up, or termination of the business or cessation of operations of the Borrower (including any transaction or
series of related transactions deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of its
charter documents), or the Borrower shall take any corporate action for the purpose of effecting, approving, or consenting to any of
the foregoing.


 


5.
Prepayment. Borrower may prepay all or any portion of any amount due under this Note at any time without premium or penalty. All
payments shall be applied first to interest and then to Principal Indebtedness.


 


6.
Governing Law. The provisions of this Note shall be construed according to the internal substantive laws of the State of Colorado
without regard to conflict of laws principles that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. If any provision
of this Note is in conflict with any statute or rule of law of the State of Colorado or is otherwise unenforceable for any reason whatsoever,
then such provision shall be deemed to be restated so that it may be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remainder
of this Note shall remain in full force and effect.


 


7.
Acceleration. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default under this Note that is not cured within
the applicable cure period, if any, set forth in Section 3, the Holder shall have the right and option to declare all outstanding
Indebtedness evidenced by this Note immediately due and payable by written notice to Borrower; provided, however, that
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Sections 3(b), 3(c) or 3(d), the Indebtedness and all other
amounts due and owing under this Note (if not then due and payable) shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand,
notice, protest, declaration or any other requirement of any kind, all which Borrower expressly waives.


 


8.
Fees. Borrower shall pay all of Holder’s reasonable fees and costs incurred in the preparation of this Note and any related
documents. If this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, by suit or otherwise, or to enforce its collection, Borrower
shall pay all reasonable costs of collection including reasonable attorneys’ fees.


 


9.
Waivers. Borrower hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration,
and any other notice of any kind. No delay or omission on the part of the Holder in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a
waiver of such right or of any other remedy under this Note. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver
of any such right or remedy on a future occasion.


 


10.
Transfer. This Note may be transferred or assigned, in whole or in part, by the Holder at any time. The term “Holder”
as used herein shall also include any transferee of this Note.


 


11.
Unconditional Obligation. The obligation of Borrower to repay the Indebtedness under this Note is absolute and unconditional,
and there exists no right of set off, recoupment, counterclaim or defense of any nature whatsoever to the Borrower’s obligation
to make payment under this Note.
