of Thirty One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars exactly (U.S. $37,500.00) on December 8, 2015 ("Maturity Date") and
to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder at the rate of 8% per annum commencing on the Closing Date (as defined
in the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of December 8, 2014). The interest will be paid to the Holder in whose name this
Note is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of this Note. The principal of, and interest
on, this Note are payable at 777 South Flagler Drive, Suite 800W, West Palm Beach, FL 33401, initially, and if changed, last appearing
on the records of the Company as designated in writing by the Holder hereof from time to time. The Company will pay each interest
payment and the outstanding principal due upon this Note before or on the Maturity Date, less any amounts required by law to be
deducted or withheld, to the Holder of this Note by check or wire transfer addressed to such Holder at the last address appearing
on the records of the Company. The forwarding of such check or wire transfer shall constitute a payment of outstanding principal
hereunder and shall satisfy and discharge the liability for principal on this Note to the extent of the sum represented by such
check or wire transfer. Interest shall be payable in Common Stock (as defined below) pursuant to paragraph 4(b) herein.


 


This
Note is subject to the following additional provisions:


 


1.        This Note is exchangeable for an equal aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested
by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for such registration or transfer or exchange, except that
Holder shall pay any tax or other governmental charges payable in connection therewith.


 


2.        The Company shall be entitled to withhold from all payments any amounts required to be withheld under applicable laws.


 


3.        This Note may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Act"),
and applicable state securities laws. Any attempted transfer to a non-qualifying party shall be treated by the Company as void.
Prior to due presentment for transfer of this Note, the Company and any agent of the Company may treat the person in whose name
this Note is duly registered on the Company's records as the owner hereof for all other purposes, whether or not this Note be
overdue, and neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected or bound by notice to the contrary. Any Holder of this Note
electing to exercise the right of conversion set forth in Section 4(a) hereof, in addition to the requirements set forth in Section
4(a), and any prospective transferee of this Note, also is required to give the Company written confirmation that this Note is
being converted ("Notice of Conversion") in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A. The date of receipt
(including receipt by telecopy) of such Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date.


 






    	 



    	 



    

 


4.        (a)        The Holder of this Note is entitled, at its option, at any time after 180 days, to convert all or any amount of the principal
face amount of this Note then outstanding into shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") with
a restrictive legend, at a price ("Conversion Price") for each share of Common Stock equal to 70% of the lowest
closing bid price of the Common Stock as reported on the OTCQB marketplace which the Company’s shares are traded or
any market upon which the Common Stock may be traded in the future ("Exchange"), for the twelve prior
trading days including the day upon which a Notice of Conversion is received by the Company (provided such Notice of Conversion
is delivered by fax or other electronic method of communication to the Company after 4 P.M. Eastern Standard or Daylight Savings
Time if the Holder wishes to include the same day closing price). If the shares have not been delivered within 3 business days,
the Notice of Conversion may be rescinded. Such conversion shall be effectuated by the Company delivering the shares of Common
Stock to the Holder within 3 business days of receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion. Once the Holder has received
such shares of Common Stock, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company, executed by the Holder evidencing such Holder's
intention to convert this Note or a specified portion hereof, and accompanied by proper assignment hereof in blank. Accrued, but
unpaid interest shall be subject to conversion. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued
on conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. In the event the Company experiences
a DTC “Chill” on its shares, the conversion price shall be decreased to 60% instead of 70% while that “Chill”
is in effect.


 


(b)        Interest on any unpaid principal balance of this Note shall be paid at the rate of 8% per annum. Interest shall be paid
by the Company in Common Stock ("Interest Shares"). Holder may, at any time, send in a Notice of Conversion to
the Company for Interest Shares based on the formula provided in Section 4(a) above. The dollar amount converted into
Interest Shares shall be all or a portion of the accrued interest calculated on the unpaid principal balance of this Note to
the date of such notice.


 


(c)        The Notes may be prepaid with the following penalties: (i) if the note is prepaid within 90 days of the issuance date, then at
110% of the face amount plus any accrued interest; (ii) if the note is prepaid within 91 days after the issuance date but less
than 180 days after the issuance date, then at 120% of the face amount plus any accrued interest. This Note may not be prepaid
after the 180th day. Such redemption must be closed and funded within 3 days of giving notice of redemption of the
right to redeem shall be null and void.


 


(d)        Upon (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any person in a single transaction or series of
related transactions, (ii) a reclassification, capital reorganization or other change or exchange of outstanding shares of the
Common Stock, other than a forward or reverse stock split or stock dividend, or (iii) any consolidation or merger of the Company
with or into another person or entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity (other than a merger which is effected
solely to change the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company and results in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of
outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into shares of Common Stock) (each of items (i), (ii) and (iii) being referred to as
a "Sale Event"), then, in each case, the Company shall, upon request of the Holder, redeem this Note in cash for 130%
of the principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest through the date of redemption, or at the election of the Holder, such
Holder may convert the unpaid principal amount of this Note (together with the amount of accrued but unpaid interest) into shares
of Common Stock immediately prior to such Sale Event at the Conversion Price.


 


(e)        In case of any Sale Event (not to include a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets) in connection with
which this Note is not redeemed or converted, the Company shall cause effective provision to be made so that the Holder of this
Note shall have the right thereafter, by converting this Note, to purchase or convert this Note into the kind and number of shares
of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization or other
change, consolidation or merger by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock that could have been purchased upon exercise
of the Note and at the same Conversion Price, as defined in this Note, immediately prior to such Sale Event. The foregoing provisions
shall similarly apply to successive Sale Events. If the consideration received by the holders of Common Stock is other than cash,
the value shall be as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company or successor person or entity acting in good faith.


 


5.        No provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the
principal of, and interest on, this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the form, herein prescribed.

6.        The Company hereby expressly waives demand and presentment for payment, notice of non-payment, protest, notice of protest, notice
of dishonor, notice of acceleration or intent to accelerate, and diligence in taking any action to collect amounts called for
hereunder and shall be directly and primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and to be owing hereto.


 


7.        The Company agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, which may be incurred by
the Holder in collecting any amount due under this Note.


 


8.        If one or more of the following described "Events of Default" shall occur:


 


(a)      The Company shall default in the payment of principal or interest on this Note or any other note issued to the Holder by the Company;
or


 


(b)      Any of the representations or warranties made by the Company herein or in any certificate or financial or other written statements
heretofore or hereafter furnished by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the execution and delivery of this Note, or
the Securities Purchase Agreement under which this note was issued shall be false or misleading in any respect; or


 


(c)      The Company shall fail to perform or observe, in any respect, any covenant, term, provision, condition, agreement or obligation
of the Company under this Note or any other note issued to the Holder; or


 


(d)      The Company shall (1) become insolvent; (2) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they mature; (3) make
an assignment for the benefit of creditors or commence proceedings for its dissolution; (4) apply for or consent to the appointment
of a trustee, liquidator or receiver for its or for a substantial part of its property or business; (5) file a petition for bankruptcy
relief, consent to the filing of such petition or have filed against it an involuntary petition for bankruptcy relief, all under
federal or state laws as applicable; or


 


(e)      A trustee, liquidator or receiver shall be appointed for the Company or for a substantial part of its property or business without
its consent and shall not be discharged within sixty (60) days after such appointment; or


 


(f)      Any governmental agency or any court of competent jurisdiction at the instance of any governmental agency shall assume custody
or control of the whole or any substantial portion of the properties or assets of the Company; or


 


(g)     One or more money judgments, writs or warrants of attachment, or similar process, in excess of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000)
in the aggregate, shall be entered or filed against the Company or any of its properties or other assets and shall remain unpaid,
unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of fifteen (15) days or in any event later than five (5) days prior to the date of
any proposed sale thereunder; or


 


(h)     The Company shall have defaulted on or breached any term of any other note of similar debt instrument into which the Company has
entered and failed to cure such default within the appropriate grace period; or


 


(i)     The Company shall have its Common Stock delisted from a market (including the OTCQB marketplace) or, if the Common Stock trades
on an exchange, then trading in the Common Stock shall be suspended for more than 10 consecutive days;


 


(j)     If a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company on the date hereof are no longer serving as members of the
Board; or


 


(k)     The Company shall not replenish the reserve set forth in Section 12, within 3 business days of the request of the Holder; or

    	3



    	 



    

 


(m)     The Company shall lose the “bid” price for its stock and a market (including the OTCQB marketplace or other exchange)


 


Then,
or at any time thereafter, unless cured within 5 days, and in each and every such case, unless such Event of Default shall have
been waived in writing by the Holder (which waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent default) at the option
of the Holder and in the Holder's sole discretion, the Holder may consider this Note immediately due and payable, without presentment,
demand, protest or (further) notice of any kind (other than notice of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived,
anything herein or in any note or other instruments contained to the contrary notwithstanding, and the Holder may immediately,
and without expiration of any period of grace, enforce any and all of the Holder's rights and remedies provided herein or any
other rights or remedies afforded by law. Upon an Event of Default, interest shall accrue at a default interest rate of 24% per
annum or, if such rate is usurious or not permitted by current law, then at the highest rate of interest permitted by law. In
case of a breach of Section 8(i), the outstanding principal due under this Note shall increase by 50%. If this Note is not paid
at maturity, the outstanding principal due under this Note shall increase by 10%.


 


If
the Holder shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Note, including, without limitation, engaging
an attorney, then if the Holder prevails in such action, the Holder shall be reimbursed by the Company for its attorneys’
fees and other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.


 


9.       In case any provision of this Note is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be excessive in scope or otherwise invalid
or unenforceable, such provision shall be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, so that it is enforceable to the maximum extent
possible, and the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Note will not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby.


 


10.     Neither this Note nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument signed
by the Company and the Holder.


 


11.     The Company represents that it is not a “shell” issuer and has never been a “shell” issuer or that if
it previously has been a “shell” issuer that at least 12 months have passed since the Company has reported form 10
type information indicating it is no longer a “shell issuer. Further. The Company will instruct its counsel to either (i)
write a 144- 3(a)(9) opinion to allow for salability of the conversion shares or (ii) accept such opinion from Holder’s
counsel.


 


12.     The Company shall issue irrevocable transfer agent instructions reserving 1,400,000 shares of its Common Stock for conversions
under this Note (the “Share Reserve”). The reserve shall be replenished as needed to allow for conversions of this
Note. Upon full conversion of this Note, any shares remaining in the Share Reserve shall be cancelled. The Company shall pay all
costs associated with issuing and delivering the shares. The company should at all times reserve a minimum of three times the
amount of shares required if the note would be fully converted. The Holder may reasonably request increases from time to time
to reserve such amounts.


 


13.     The Company will give the Holder direct notice of any corporate actions, including but not limited to name changes, stock splits,
recapitalizations etc. This notice shall be given to the Holder as soon as possible under law.


 


14.     This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida applicable to contracts made
and wholly to be performed within the State of Florida and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each party hereto.
The Holder and the Company hereby mutually waive trial by jury and consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the courts of
the State of Florida in Palm Beach County.
