LIST AND DESCRIPTION OF COLLATERAL FOR THE NOTE

 

 

(List and Location of Wind Sensors as attached)

 

	  

 

Attachment to Secured Promissory Note

 

 

EXHIBIT B

 

 

Green Star Alternative Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company" or "Maker") is an early stage company and is subject to substantial risks. The Company's business organization, limited history, and existing debt obligations on its balance sheet all involve elements of substantial risk. Any purchase of the Company's Secured Promissory Note by the Payee (named in the Note) is subject to substantial and continuing risks and uncertainties in that the rights of the holder will be subject to the claims of the Company's existing and future creditors. In many instances, these risks arise from factors over which the Company will have little or no control. Some adverse events may be more likely than others and the consequence of some adverse events may be greater than others. No attempt has been made to rank risks in the order of their likelihood or potential harm. In addition to those general risks enumerated elsewhere, any purchaser of the Company's Secured Promissory Note should also consider the following factors.

 

 

1. New Business Venture, Continued Operating Losses & Lack of Operating History. The Company has undertaken steps to enter the energy business. As a result, any purchaser of the Company's Secured Promissory Note is exposed to all of the risks of a new business. In addition, the Company has incurred losses since inception to the present and the Company anticipates that it may well incur significant additional losses in the future as well. The Company has limited operations and only recently entered the energy business and thus it lacks a substantial operating history on which to base its anticipated expense and revenues. There is no assurance that the Company's operations will be successful or that it will be profitable in the future.

 

 

2. Uncertainties & Lack of Revenues. The Maker does not have any revenues. There can be no assurance that the Maker will generate revenues, or if it does, that revenues will be sustained or be sufficient for it to achieve profitable operations or positive cash flow. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Maker can avoid default on the Note.

 

 

3. Lack of Audited Financial Statements. The Company presently does not have audited financial statements. While the Company anticipates that it will obtain audited financial statements in the future, the lack of audited financial statements limits the ability of an investor to fully evaluate the Company and its current financial condition.

 

 

4. Need for Additional Capital & Lack of Underwriter. The Company anticipates that it will require significant additional capital to implement its business plan. Currently, the Company relies upon its officers and their affiliates to provide additional capital to the Company and the Company has not received any commitment from any underwriter, broker-dealer, or other source of financing that the Company will receive the additional capital needed to implement its business plan. For these and other reasons, there can be no assurance that the Company will raise any additional capital or, if it does, that it can raise any capital in the near future or on terms that may be considered reasonable in light of the Company's current circumstances.

 

 

5. Limited Managerial and Financial Resources. The Company has two corporate officers each of whom have additional employment commitments. In addition, the Company has limited financial resources. While the Company believes that its managerial resources are sufficient and appropriate for the Company in its current financial circumstances, the lack of additional management and the lack of managerial time when combined with the Company's limited financial resources likely limits the ability of the Company to evaluate opportunities and develop effective strategies.

 

 

6. Intense Competition & Small Company. The Maker is entering a business in an industry where there are many large, well-established competitors that possess significantly greater financial and managerial resources than the Maker. Many of these competitors also have significant government and supplier relationships that allow them to exploit opportunities and gain a significant competitive advantage. For these and because of the Maker's small size and lack of resources, the Maker faces intense competition and there can be no assurance that the Maker will successfully implement its business plan or otherwise demonstrate that it can successfully enter the industry.

 

 

7. Value of Collateral & Market Uncertainties. The collateral for the Note consists solely of the Wind Sensors listed on Exhibit A. The Company has not given and will not be giving any other collateral or assets to secure its obligations set forth in the Note. Further, no guarantor has or will be giving any third party guaranty that the obligations set forth in the Note will be fully performed. In the event that the Wind Sensors decline in value or if the Wind Sensors become damaged as result of any later events or circumstances and the Company defaults on its obligations to the Payee under the Note, the Payee may incur the total loss of their investment and the Payee may have little or no recourse since the Company has and may have at that time only limited financial resources. As a result, the Payee should be prepared to accept the total loss of its investment.

 

 

8. The Note as a HIGH RISK Investment. The Secured Promissory Note to be acquired by Payee is and should be considered, for all purposes, a HIGH RISK investment. The financial condition of Maker, the financial, business, and competitive risks that face Maker and those that Maker will likely continue to face in the future together with other risks and uncertainties of technology and the business environment are all risks that are beyond the control of Maker. As a result, the Payee should be prepared to lose its entire investment.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Green Star Alternative Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation (hereinafter called "Maker"), promises to pay to the order of Jesse De Castro, an individual (together with all subsequent holders of this Note, hereinafter called "Payee"), or at such other place as Payee may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000), together with interest thereon calculated on a daily basis (based, on a 365-day year) from the date hereof on the principal balance from time to time outstanding as hereinafter provided, principal, interest and all other sums payable hereunder to be paid in lawful money of the United States of America as follows:

 

 

A. Interest shall accrue at all times hereunder at the rate of seven percent (7.00%) per annum (simple interest) commencing upon the execution of this Note, and continuing on each anniversary thereafter until this Note is paid in full.

 

 

B. If not earlier due and payable, the unpaid principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be due and payable in full on August 30, 2009 (the "Maturity Date").

 

 

Maker agrees to an effective rate of interest that is the rate stated above plus any additional rate of interest resulting from any other charges in the nature of interest paid or to be paid by or on behalf of Maker, or any benefit received or to be received by Payee, in connection with this Note. This Note is not secured by any collateral or assets of Maker.

 

 

If any payment required under this Note is not paid within fifteen (15) days after the date such payment is due, then, at the option of Payee, Maker shall pay a "late charge" equal to five percent (5%) of the amount of that payment to compensate Payee for administrative expenses and other costs of delinquent payments. This late charge may be assessed without notice, shall be immediately due and payable and shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Payee.

 

 

All payments on this Note shall be applied in such manner as Payee elects, and may be applied first to the payment of any costs, penalties, late charges, fees or other charges incurred in connection with the indebtedness evidenced hereby, next to the payment of accrued interest and then to the reduction of the principal balance.

 

 

This Note and any other documents or instruments relating to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note or executed or delivered in connection with the indebtedness evidenced by this Note are hereinafter called the "Loan Documents."

 

 

Time is of the essence of this Note. At the option of Payee, the entire unpaid principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts payable hereunder shall become immediately due and payable without notice upon the failure to pay any sum due and owing hereunder as provided herein or upon the occurrence of any Event of Default in any of the Loan Documents. The occurrence of any of the following events or conditions shall constitute and is hereby defined to be an "Event of Default": (a) Any failure to pay any principal or interest or any other amount due in connection with this Note when the same shall become due and payable.

 

 

After Maturity Date, including maturity upon acceleration, the unpaid principal balance, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts payable hereunder shall bear interest from the date of maturity until paid at the rate that is five percent (5%) above the rate that would otherwise be payable under the terms hereof. Maker shall pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs, incurred in the collection or enforcement of all or any part of this Note. In the event of any court proceedings, court costs and attorneys' fees shall be set by the court and not by jury and shall be included in any judgment obtained by Payee. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Note or in any of the other Loan Documents, Payee may proceed against the undersigned in such order and manner as Payee, in its sole discretion, shall determine.

 

 

Failure of Payee to exercise any option hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same in the event of any subsequent default or in the event of the continuance of any existing default after demand for strict performance hereof.

 

 

Maker, sureties, guarantors and endorsers hereof: (a) agree to be jointly and severally bound, (b) severally waive demand, diligence, presentment for payment, protest and demand, and notice of extension, dishonor, protest, demand and nonpayment of this Note, (c) consent that Payee may extend the time of payment or otherwise modify the terms of payment of any part or the whole of the debt evidenced by this Note, at the request of any other person primarily liable hereon, and such consent shall not alter nor diminish the liability of any person, and (d) agree that Payee may set off at any time any sums or property owed to any of them by Payee.

 

 

No provision of this Note is intended to or shall require or permit Payee, directly or indirectly, to take, collect or receive in money, goods or in any other form, any interest (including amount deemed by law to be interest) in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted by applicable law. If any amount due from or paid by Maker shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be interest in excess of such maximum rate, Maker shall not be obligated to pay such excess and, if paid, such excess shall be applied against the unpaid principal balance of this Note, or if and to the extent that this Note has been paid in full, such excess shall be remitted to Maker.

 

 

This Note shall be binding upon Maker and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Payee and its successors and assigns.

 

 

This Note shall be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of California.

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, these presents are executed as of the date first written above.
