EASTERN RESOURCES, INC.


10% CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE








	
Issuance Date:  April __, 2011

	
Principal Amount: U.S. $___________












FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Eastern Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), hereby promises to pay to ___________ or registered assigns ("Holder") the amount set out above as the Principal Amount (as reduced pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption, conversion or otherwise, the "Principal") when due, whether upon the Maturity Date (as defined below), acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof) and to pay interest at the rate of 10.00% per annum  ("Interest") from the date set out above as the Issuance Date (the "Issuance Date") until the same becomes due and payable on the Maturity Date.







1.          PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST; MATURITY.  Payment in full of all unpaid Principal and all accrued and unpaid Interest is due no later than October __, 2012 (the "Maturity Date"), unless this Note is repaid earlier in accordance with Section 2 herein or converted in accordance with Section 3 herein; provided, however, that the Corporation and Holders of a majority in interest of these Notes may mutually agree to extend the term of the Note beyond the Maturity Date.  All Interest shall be paid in shares of the Corporation’s common stock (“Interest Shares”).  The amount of Interest Shares to be delivered shall be determined by dividing the amount of Interest required to be paid by (i) in the event of a mandatory conversion in accordance with Section 3 herein, the Conversion Price (defined below), or (ii) if no mandatory conversion, (a) a number equal to the volume weighted average price of the Corporation’s common stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the ten trading days preceding but not including the relevant payment date, or (b) if no such pricing is available, a number determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation to be the fair market value of the common stock at the payment date.


 




  





  











  






 


2.           PREPAYMENT.  The Company and the Holder understand and agree that the Principal and any accrued Interest may be prepaid by the Company at any time without penalty.







3.           MANDATORY CONVERSION.  Upon the closing of the next securities offering or other financing by the Company in which the Company raises a minimum of US one million dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Financing”), the entire unpaid Principal and accrued but unpaid Interest shall be automatically, and without any action or notice by the Company or the Holder, converted into the securities or instruments issued by the Company in the Financing (the “Conversion Securities”) at a price (the “Conversion Price”) equal to either (a) the price per share of stock (or unit of stock and other securities) paid by investors in the Financing, if the Financing is an issuance of stock (or units of stock and other securities), or (b) the price paid by investors in the Financing, expressed as a percentage of the face amount of debt securities, if the Financing is an issuance of debt securities (or units of debt securities and other securities) (including debt securities convertible into stock).    No fraction of shares will be issued on conversion, but if shares are issuable, the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.  The number or amount of Conversion Securities issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding Principal and accrued but unpaid Interest to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price.  The Company’s calculation of the applicable Conversion Price shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  The Company shall afford the Holder the opportunity to become a party to all agreements and instruments for the benefit of the investors in the Financing, including, but not limited to, if applicable, any registration rights agreement.







4.           LIMITATION ON CONVERSION.  The Holder shall not be entitled to convert this Note on any date, if and to the extent that the number of shares of common stock of the Company issuable upon the conversion of this Note on such date (or issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Conversion Securities if such securities are not shares of common stock of the Company), together with the number of shares of common stock of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates otherwise than on account of ownership of this Note on such date, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company on such date.  For the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder.







5.           EVENT OF DEFAULT.  Failure by the Company to make payment pursuant to Section 1 hereof shall constitute an event of default ("Event of Default").  In an Event of Default, the Holder shall be entitled to all legal remedies available to it to pursue collections, and the Company shall bear all reasonable costs of collection, including but not limited to necessary attorneys’ fees.







6.           NO WAIVER.  No failure or delay by the Holder in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Note shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by applicable law.  No course of dealing between the Company and the Holder shall operate as a waiver of any rights by the Holder.
