 CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
  
 	 Principal Amount: $500,000
	  October 3, 2019


 
  
 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Grove, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Maker”) hereby promises to pay to the order of or its successors or assigns (the “Holder”)Kyle Dennis, the principal amount of $500,000 Dollars ($500,000), together with all other amounts due under this Convertible Promissory Note (the “Principal Amount”). This Convertible Promissory Note shall be referred to herein as the “Note”. This Note is made and delivered by the Maker to the Holder as of the date first written above (the “Original Issue Date”).
  
 1. Principal and Interest Payments. In the event the Holder has not converted this Note, the Company shall repay the entire outstanding Principal Amount of this Note together with all accrued and unpaid interest hereunder (the “Outstanding Balance”) on the Maturity Date. The Note shall accrue interest at the rate of eight percent (8 %) per annum.
  
 2. Maturity Date. All amounts, including principal and interest, payable hereunder shall be due and payable on the eighteenth (18th) month anniversary of the Original Issuance Date (the “Maturity Date”).
  
 3. Conversion.
  
 3.1 Optional Conversion Prior to Maturity by Holder. If the Company enters into a transaction the result of which is that the securities of the Company, or in the event of a merger, the securities of the surviving company become listed or quoted for trading (a “Financing”), then the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation to convert all, but not less than all, of the Outstanding Balance into the same securities of the Company or its successor that were sold in the Financing at a conversion rate equal to the price or valuation of the Company’s securities sold in the Financing.
  
 3.2 Mechanics of Conversion. At any time while the Note remains outstanding following a Financing, upon three (3) days prior written notice from either the Holder, which shall contain the Outstanding Amount being converted, the Conversion Price and the number of Shares of Common Stock being converted into, the Maker shall transmit to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock representing full repayment of the Outstanding Amount being made on such date. The person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the date of the Notice of Conversion.
  
 3.3 No Fractional Shares. The Maker shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Maker shall round up such fraction of a share of Common Stock to the nearest whole share. The Maker shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion.

 4. Prepayment. The Maker has the right to prepay the Outstanding Balance of this Note without penalty at any time prior to the Maturity Date, prior the Note has not been converted in accordance with Section 3 hereof.
   
 5. Effect on Note of Conversion. If the Outstanding Balance under this Note is converted into securities of the Maker as provided in Section 3, the provisions of this Note relating to the obligation of the Maker to repay such principal to the Holder, set forth above, shall be null and void and no repayment of principal shall be owed or paid by the Maker.

 8.3 Limitations on Conversion. The Maker shall not affect any conversion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Note, pursuant to Section 3 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after conversion, the Holder (together with any affiliate of the Holder (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of this Section 8.3, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 8.3 applies, the determination of whether the Note is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Attribution Parties) and of which portion of the Note is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Note is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Note is convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In any case, the number of an outstanding class of securities shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Maker, including the Note, by the Holder or the Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of shares of any class of a capital stock of the Maker out- standing immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the securities issuable upon conversion of the Note. The Holder, upon notice to the Maker, may waive the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 8.3.
  
 9. Certain Definitions.
  
 9.1 “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, federal holiday or bank holiday in any jurisdiction in which the Maker holds a substantial portion of its assets.
  
 9.2 “Change of Control” means any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Maker, either voluntary or involuntary, and shall be deemed to be occasioned by, or to include, (i) the acquisition of the Maker by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, any stock acquisition, reorganization, merger or consolidation) unless the Maker’s shareholders of record as constituted immediately prior to such acquisition or sale will, immediately after such acquisition or sale (by virtue of securities issued as consideration for the Maker’s acquisition or sale or otherwise) hold at least a majority of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity or its direct or indirect parent entity (except that any bona fide equity or debt financing transaction for capital raising purposes shall not be deemed a Change of Control for this purpose) and (ii) a sale, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Maker, including a sale, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of one or more of the Maker’s subsidiaries, if such assets constitute substantially all of the assets of the Maker and such subsidiaries taken as a whole.

 10.5 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Nevada, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Nevada or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Neva- da. The Maker hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sit- ting in The City las vegas, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. The Maker hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address it set forth on the signature page hereto and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.
