WHEREAS, on or prior to each “Purchase Tranche Closing” (as hereinafter defined), as directed by Lender, Borrower agrees to sever, split, divide and apportion the Fourth Replacement Debenture B (or any replacement debentures issued in replacement thereof as hereby contemplated, as applicable) into two separate and distinct replacement debentures, each in substantially
the form as set forth on Exhibit “A” attached hereto (the “Debenture Form”), one for the amount of the portion of the Assigned Debt being sold and assigned at such Purchase Tranche Closing (the portion of the Assigned Debt being sold and assigned at each separate Purchase Tranche Closing, as applicable, being referred to as the “Applicable
Assigned Debt”), and one for the remaining amount of the overall debt evidenced by the Fourth Replacement Debenture B (or any replacement debentures issued in replacement thereof as hereby contemplated, as applicable).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and agreed, Assignor, Assignee, and Borrower hereby covenant and agree as follows:

 

 

 

 

1. Recitals. The recitations set forth in the preamble of this Agreement are true and correct and incorporated herein by this reference.

 

2. Agreement to Assign Assigned Debt.

 

(a) 

Purchase Tranche Closings. Provided Assignee is not in default or breach under this Agreement, and that no event has occurred that, with the passage of time, the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default or breach by Assignee under this Agreement, and subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Assignor hereby agrees to sell and assign to Assignee, and Assignee hereby agrees to purchase from Assignor, the Assigned Debt, which Assigned
Debt shall be sold in multiple separate tranches (each of such tranches hereinafter referred to as a “Purchase Tranche”), each of such separate Purchase Tranches to be sold and assigned on the respective dates and for the respective amounts set forth in the schedule attached hereto as Exhibit “B” (each closing of a Purchase Tranche referred to as a “Purchase
Tranche Closing” and the purchase price to be paid for each Applicable Assigned Debt at each Purchase Tranche Closing, as shown on such attached schedule, referred to as the “Applicable Purchase Price”); provided, however, nothing herein shall prevent Assignee from electing to purchase a greater portion of the Assigned Debt than that set forth in the attached schedule for any given Purchase Tranche Closing, up to the aggregate
amount of the Assigned Debt, by written notice to Assignor delivered prior to the applicable Purchase Tranche Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, Assignee may elect, at any time and in its sole discretion, to not effect up to two (2) separate Purchase Tranche Closings without triggering any rights hereunder in favor of Assignor or obligations of Assignee that would otherwise apply in the event Assignee failed to purchase any applicable Assigned Debt at an applicable Purchase
Tranche Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the first two (2) separate Purchase Tranche Closings that Assignee fails to effect (by not delivering the Applicable Purchase Price at such Purchase Tranche Closing or otherwise), neither of such failures shall constitute a default of Assignee’s obligations under this Agreement, nor shall such failures give rise to a right of termination pursuant to Section 8(b) below or trigger a termination of Assignor’s covenants described in Section
2(f) below (as is described in the last sentence of such section).

 

(b) Deliveries at Each Purchase Tranche Closing. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, at each Purchase Tranche Closing: (i) Lender shall execute and deliver to Assignee, an assignment of the Applicable
Assigned Debt being sold and assigned at such Purchase Tranche Closing, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “C” (each, an “Assignment”); (ii) Lender shall deliver to Assignee the replacement debenture for the Applicable Assigned Debt being sold and assigned at such Purchase Tranche Closing (subject to receipt of same by Lender from Borrower
as provided in Section 2(c) below); (iii) Lender shall cause its attorney to deliver to Assignee a legal opinion that as of the date of such Purchase Tranche Closing, Lender is not and has not at any time been an Affiliate (as that term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) of Borrower; and (iv) Assignee shall pay to Lender the Applicable Purchase Price for the Applicable Assigned Debt being sold
and assigned at such Purchase Tranche Closing, by wire transfer of good and cleared U.S. currency to an account designated by Lender.

 

(c) Borrower’s Obligation to Sever Debentures. On or prior to each Purchase Tranche Closing, and within no later than two (2) business days after request therefor is made by Lender to Borrower, Borrower
agrees to sever, split, divide and apportion the Debenture (or any replacement debentures issued in replacement thereof as hereby contemplated, as applicable) into two separate and distinct and newly issued replacement debentures, each substantially in the Debenture Form. One of such replacement debentures shall be for a principal amount equal to the Applicable Purchase Price corresponding to the Applicable Assigned Debt for the applicable Purchase Tranche Closing, and the other replacement debenture shall be
for a principal amount equal to the remaining amount of the overall debt then existing and evidenced by the Fourth Replacement Debenture B (or any replacement debenture issued in replacement thereof as hereby contemplated, as applicable). In order to clarify the foregoing, as an example, on or prior to the first Purchase Tranche Closing contemplated hereby, upon request by Lender, Borrower shall provide to Lender two replacement debentures in replacement of the Fourth Replacement Debenture B, one for $80,000,
which is the Applicable Purchase Price for the Applicable Assigned Debt being sold and assigned at the first Purchase Tranche Closing, and the second for $2,445,842.62 (as of August 15, 2016), which is the amount of the overall debt evidenced by the Fourth Replacement Debenture B, less the Applicable Purchase Price for the fifth replacement debenture being sold and assigned at the first Purchase Tranche Closing. This second replacement debenture shall then be severed in the same manner for the second Purchase
Tranche Closing, and this foregoing process of severing and issuing replacement debentures shall be repeated for each Purchase Tranche Closing, until the Assigned Debt is sold and assigned in full, or this Agreement is otherwise earlier terminated in accordance with its terms. Assignee acknowledges and understands that Lender’s obligation to sell, assign and deliver each replacement debenture representing the Applicable Assigned Debt at each Purchase Tranche Closing is subject to and conditioned upon Borrower
executing and delivering such replacement debentures to Lender in accordance with this Agreement. Likewise, Lender acknowledges and understands that Assignee’s obligation to pay the Applicable Purchase Price for the Applicable Assigned Debt at each Purchase Tranche Closing is subject to and conditioned upon Borrower executing and delivering such replacement debentures in accordance with this Agreement.

 

 

 

 

(d) Remaining Debt. Assignee and Borrower acknowledge that at each Purchase Tranche Closing, and subject to Lender’s receipt of the Applicable Purchase Price, only the Applicable Assigned Debt represented
by the specific replacement debenture representing the applicable Purchase Tranche shall be deemed sold and assigned hereunder, it being acknowledged by Assignee and by Borrower that the remaining portion of the debt evidenced by the Fourth Replacement Debenture B (or any replacement debentures issued in replacement thereof as hereby contemplated, as applicable) for which the Applicable Purchase Price has not been paid and received by Lender (the “Remaining
Debt”) shall not be sold or assigned thereby unless and until additional replacement debentures for additional Purchase Tranches are thereafter sold in accordance with this Agreement and the Applicable Purchase Price therefor is received by Lender. The Remaining Debt shall include no less than $300,000 of debt which shall remain in the possession of the Assignor to be sold and assigned to Old Main.

 

(e) No Security Rights. Assignee and Borrower each hereby agree and acknowledge that the sale, transfer and assignment of the Assigned Debt, or any portion thereof, shall be a sale, transfer and assignment
of the monetary obligations evidenced by such Assigned Debt (or portion thereof) only, and shall not include, and such sale, transfer and assignment expressly excludes, the Remaining Debt, as well as excluding any and all security rights, rights to any collateral, or any other security interests or rights of Assignor of any nature or kind related to, arising under, or pursuant to, the Purchase Agreement, any other “Transaction Documents” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) related thereto, or any
other security agreements, UCC financing statements, or any other documents or instruments relating to the obligations of Borrower or any “Guarantors” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) to Assignor (collectively, the “Security Rights”), it being agreed and acknowledged that all Security Rights shall remain with Assignor, as security for any portion of the Assigned Debt not assigned at any Purchase Tranche Closing, the
Remaining Debt, or any other obligations of Borrower or any Guarantors to Assignor.

 

(f) Covenants of Assignor. As a material inducement to Assignee entering into this Agreement, for so long as this Agreement remains in effect (but subject to the last sentence of this Section 2(f)), Assignor
covenants and agrees that it will not: (i) sell all or any portion of the Fourth Replacement Debenture B or any other Borrower debt owned by Assignor to any other Person (as defined below) other than Assignee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, provided, however, that Assignor shall be permitted to sell $300,000 of the Fourth Replacement Debenture B to Old Main; (ii) convert or attempt to convert all or any portion
of the Remaining Debt; and (iii) at any time, accept payments (whether in full or partial payments) of the then outstanding Remaining Debt, or any portion of the Assigned Debt not assigned at any Purchase Tranche Closing, in an amount of less than $250,000.00, whether such payments are made by Borrower, any other Person purchasing all or any portion of the then outstanding Remaining Debt, or any portion of the Assigned Debt not assigned at any Purchase Tranche Closing, or any other Person, provided, however,
that Assignor shall be permitted to sell $300,000 of the Fourth Replacement Debenture B to Old Main in tranches of less than $250,000. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Assignor’s covenants set forth in this Section 2(f) shall terminate in the event Assignee fails to pay the Applicable Purchase Price for any Assigned Debt as and when required under the terms of this Agreement.

 

 

 

 

3. Conditions to Purchases.

 

(a) Closing Conditions. The obligation of Assignee to purchase any Assigned Debt, to pay the Applicable Purchase Price at each applicable Purchase Tranche Closing
and to perform any other obligations hereunder shall be subject to the satisfaction as determined by, or waived by, Assignee of the following conditions on or before each applicable Purchase Tranche Closing: (i) the representations, warranties and covenants of Assignor and Borrower contained herein shall be true and correct in all material respects on the date hereof and as of the date of each applicable Purchase Tranche Closing with the same force and effect as though made on and as of the Effective Date,
except for those representations and warranties that are expressly limited by their terms to dates or times other than the Effective Date, which representations and warranties need only be true and correct in all material respects as of such other date or time; (ii) Assignor shall have performed and complied in all material respects with all covenants and agreements required hereby to be performed or complied with by Assignor on or prior to date of each applicable Purchase Tranche Closing; (iii) Assignor shall
have delivered to Assignee those documents required under Section 2(b) above; and (iv) Borrower and Assignee shall have signed, or be unconditionally prepared to sign, an Exchange Agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Assignee (the “Exchange Agreement”). The Exchange Agreement shall (A) be effective subsequent to the each Purchase Tranche Closing
hereunder (e.g., to be effective the day following the applicable Purchase Tranche Closing), (B) be in a form satisfactory to Assignee in its sole discretion, and (C) serve as a material inducement to Buyer for purposes of each Purchase Tranche Closing under this Agreement.

 

(b) Initial Purchase. The initial Purchase Tranche contemplated hereunder shall be closed and funded simultaneous with the execution of this Agreement by Lender, Assignee and Borrower.

 

(c) Subsequent Purchases.  If the first Purchase Tranche Closing is consummated hereunder, and the Applicable Purchase Price therefor is paid and received by Lender as contemplated under this Agreement,
then Assignee’s obligation to purchase any additional Purchase Tranches as hereby contemplated is a binding and continuing obligation of Assignee (subject, however, to the last sentence of Section 2(a) above); provided, however, Assignee shall have the right to terminate such obligation at any time during the term of this Agreement upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each a “Trigger Event”): (i) Borrower fails
to stay current in its filing obligations with the SEC; (ii) trading of Borrower’s Common Stock on the “Principal Trading Market” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) is stopped or halted for any reason; (iii) any suspension of electronic trading or settlement services by the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) with respect to the Common Stock occurs and is continuing, or any receipt by Borrower of any notice from
DTC to the effect that a suspension of electronic trading or settlement services by DTC with respect to the Common Stock is being imposed or is contemplated (unless, prior to such suspension, DTC shall have notified Borrower in writing that DTC has determined not to impose any such suspension); (iv) Borrower’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) fails to issue to Assignee any shares of Borrower’s Common Stock which may
be due to Assignee in connection with any conversion rights exercised by Assignee under any debentures purchased by Assignee hereunder, or debentures issued in replacement thereof; (v) Borrower fails to maintain its active status with its state of organization; (vi) Borrower shall default (beyond any applicable notice and cure periods) in any of its obligations to Assignee under the debentures purchased by Assignee hereunder, or debentures issued in replacement thereof, the Exchange Agreement, or any other obligations
of Borrower to Assignee; (vii) Borrower fails to maintain any share reserve required by Assignee; (viii) Assignor shall accelerate or otherwise seek to collect any amount due and payable by Borrower to Assignor under the Debenture; or (ix) or in the event of any default or breach by Lender or Borrower of any covenant, representation, or warranty made to Assignee under this Agreement, including without limitation if any representation or warranty made by Lender or Borrower hereunder was false when made or as of
the date of any Purchase Tranche Closing. Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, in the event Assignee desires to terminate its obligation to purchase Purchase Tranches as hereby contemplated, Assignee shall deliver to Lender written notice of such termination at any time following the occurrence of the Trigger Event (which notice shall include a statement of the Trigger Event that has occurred and reasonable evidence of the occurrence thereof), whereupon Assignee’s obligation to purchase any additional
Purchase Tranches thereafter shall immediately terminate and be of no further force or effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the occurrence of any Trigger Event, Assignee may elect to terminate its obligation to purchase additional Purchase Tranches without terminating this Agreement, in which event Assignee may continue purchasing additional Purchase Tranches under this Agreement in its sole discretion, but shall have no obligation to do so. Moreover, and for the avoidance of doubt, once a Trigger
Event has occurred, Assignee shall be entitled to all rights set forth in this Section 3(c) and such rights shall continue thereafter until this Agreement is terminated, even if such Trigger Event is subsequently cured.

(s) There is no action, suit, proceeding, judgment, claim or investigation pending, or to the knowledge of Assignor, threatened against Assignor which could reasonably be expected in any manner to challenge or seek to prevent, enjoin, alter or materially delay

deemed necessary or desirable, Assignee represents, warrants and agrees that it is relying solely on its own investigation of Borrower, the Assigned Debt, any portion thereof, or any instruments evidencing same, and not any information whatsoever provided or to be provided by Assignor, other than Assignor’s representations, warranties, and covenants set forth in this Agreement.

$__________  Issuance and Effective Date: as of __________

 

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, GROWLIFE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), whose address is 5400 Carillon Point, Kirkland, WA 98033, promises to pay to the order of TCA GLOBAL CREDIT MASTER FUND, LP (hereinafter,
together with any holder hereof, “Lender”), whose address is 3960 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 500, Las Vegas, Nevada 89169, _____________ ($___________), together with interest (computed on the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360 day year) thereon and all other fees, charges and all other Obligations due and payable in accordance with the terms of that certain Securities Purchase
Agreement dated as of April 30, 2015, but made effective as of July 9, 2015, executed by and among Borrower and Lender (the “Original Purchase Agreement”), as supplemented by that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2015, but made effective as of August 6, 2015 (the “Supplemental Purchase Agreement”), together with Amended and Restated
Purchase Agreement dated as of October 27, 2015 (the “Restated Purchase Agreement”), as further amended by that certain First Amendment to Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2016 (the “First Amendment”) (the Original Purchase Agreement, the Supplemental Purchase Agreement, the Restated Purchase Agreement, and the First Amendment,
together with all other renewals, extensions, future advances, amendments, modifications, substitutions, or replacements thereof, sometimes collectively referred to as the “Purchase Agreement”). Capitalized words and phrases not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Purchase Agreement.

 

 

 

 

This _______ Replacement Debenture A (“Debenture”), along with the ________ Replacement Debenture B being executed by Borrower simultaneously herewith (“Debenture B”), evidence the Debentures and other Obligations
incurred by the Borrower under and pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the terms and conditions under which any payment hereon may be accelerated. The holder of this Debenture is entitled to all of the benefits and security provided for in the Purchase Agreement and all other Transaction Documents executed by and between Borrower and Lender.

 

This Debenture, along with Debenture B being executed and delivered simultaneously herewith, are being both executed in substitution for and to supersede the ______ Replacement Debenture B dated as of __________ (the “Existing Note”), in its entirety. It is the
intention of the Borrower and Lender that while this Debenture and Debenture B replace and supersede the Existing Note, in its entirety, it is not in payment or satisfaction of the Existing Note, but rather is the substitute of one evidence of debt for another without any intent to extinguish the old. Nothing contained in this Debenture or Debenture B shall be deemed to extinguish the indebtedness and obligations evidenced by the Existing Note or constitute a novation of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Existing Note.

 

Principal, interest and other fees and charges shall be paid to Lender as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, or at such other place as the holder of this Debenture shall designate in writing to Borrower. Each Debenture made by Lender, and all payments on account of the principal and interest thereof shall be recorded on the
books and records of Lender and the principal balance as shown on such books and records, or any copy thereof certified by an officer of Lender, shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal amount owing hereunder.

 

Except for such notices as may be required under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Borrower waives presentment, demand, notice, protest, and all other demands, or notices, in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement of this Debenture, and assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence.

 

Borrower shall be solely responsible for the payment of any and all documentary stamps and other taxes applicable to the full face amount of this Debenture.

This Debenture shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, and shall be binding upon Borrower and their legal representatives, successors, and assigns. Wherever possible, each provision of the Purchase Agreement and this Debenture shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision
of the Purchase Agreement or this Debenture shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such provision shall be severable, and be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remaining provisions of the Purchase Agreement or this Debenture.

 

Nothing herein contained, nor in any instrument or transaction relating hereto, shall be construed or so operate as to require any Borrower, or any person liable for the payment of this Debenture, to pay interest in an amount or at a rate grater than the highest rate permissible under applicable law. By acceptance hereof, Lender
hereby warrants and represents to Borrower that Lender has no intention of charging a usurious rate of interest. Should any interest or other charges paid by Borrower, or any parties liable for the payments made pursuant to this Debenture, result in the computation or earning of interest in excess of the highest rate permissible under applicable law, any and all such excess shall be and the same is hereby waived by the holder hereof. Lender shall make adjustments in the Debenture or Purchase Agreement, as applicable,
as necessary to ensure that Borrower will not be required to pay further interest in excess of the amount permitted by applicable law. All such excess shall be automatically credited against and in reduction of the outstanding principal balance. Any portion of such excess which exceeds the outstanding principal balance shall be paid by the holder hereof to the Lender and any parties liable for the payment of this Debenture, it being the intent of the parties hereto that under no circumstances shall Borrower,
or any party liable for the payments hereunder, be required to pay interest in excess of the highest rate permissible under applicable law.

 

 

 

THE HOLDER IS A NON-U.S. PERSON AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN THE UNITED STATES INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.  IT IS HEREBY AGREED AND UNDERSTOOD THAT THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER MAY BE SOLD OR RESOLD ONLY TO NON-U.S. PERSONS.  THE INTEREST PAYABLE HEREUNDER IS PAYABLE ONLY OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES.  ANY U.S. PERSON WHO HOLDS THIS OBLIGATION WILL BE SUBJECT TO LIMITATIONS
UNDER THE UNITED STATES INCOME TAX LAW.

 

Conversion of Debenture. At any time and from time to time while this Debenture is outstanding, but only upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, this Debenture may be, at the sole option of the Lender, convertible into shares of the common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Borrower, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below.

 

(a)           Voluntary Conversion. At any time while this Debenture is outstanding, but only upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, the Lender may convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal,
accrued and unpaid interest, and any other sums due and payable hereunder or under the Purchase Agreement (such total amount, the “Conversion Amount”) into shares of Common Stock of the Borrower (the “Conversion Shares”) at a price equal to: (i) the Conversion Amount (the numerator); divided by (ii) eighty-five percent
(85%) of the lowest of the daily volume weighted average price of the Borrower’s Common Stock during the five (5) Business Days immediately prior to the Conversion Date, which price shall be indicated in the conversion notice (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “A”, the “Conversion Notice”) (the denominator) (the “Conversion
Price”). The Lender shall submit a Conversion Notice indicating the Conversion Amount, the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion, and where the Conversion Shares should be delivered.

 

(b)           The Lender’s Conversion Limitations. The Borrower shall not effect any conversion of this Debenture, and the Lender shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth
on the Conversion Notice submitted by the Lender, the Lender (together with the Lender’s Affiliates and any Persons acting as a group together with the Lender or any of the Lender’s Affiliates) would beneficially own shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined herein). To ensure compliance with this restriction, prior to delivery of any Conversion Notice, the Lender shall have the right to request that the Borrower provide to the Lender a written statement of
the percentage ownership of the Borrower’s Common Stock that would be beneficially owned by the Lender and its Affiliates in the Borrower if the Lender converted such portion of this Debenture then intended to be converted by Lender. The Borrower shall, within two (2) Business Days of such request, provide Lender with the requested information in a written statement, and the Lender shall be entitled to rely on such written statement from the Borrower in its Conversion Notice and ensuring that its ownership
of the Borrower’s Common Stock is not in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The restriction described in this Section may be waived by Lender, in whole or in part, upon notice not less than sixty-one (61) days prior written notice from the Lender to the Borrower to increase such percentage.

 

 

 

 

For purposes of this Debenture, the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture.  The limitations contained in this
Section shall apply to a successor holder of this Debenture. For purposes of this Debenture, “Person” means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization or a government or any department or agency thereof.

 

(c)           Mechanics of Conversion. The conversion of this Debenture shall be conducted in the following manner:

 

(1)           To convert this Debenture into shares of Common Stock on any date set forth in the Conversion Notice by the Lender (the “Conversion Date”), the Lender shall transmit by facsimile or electronic mail (or otherwise deliver) a
copy of the fully executed Conversion Notice to the Borrower (or, under certain circumstances as set forth below, by delivery of the Conversion Notice to the Borrower’s transfer agent).

 

(2)           Borrower’s Response. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a copy of a Conversion Notice, the Borrower shall as soon as practicable, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of such Conversion
Notice, send, via facsimile or electronic mail (or otherwise deliver) a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice (the “Conversion Confirmation”) to the Lender indicating that the Borrower will process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein. In the event the Borrower fails to issue its Conversion Confirmation within said two (2) Business Day time period, the Lender
shall have the absolute and irrevocable right and authority to deliver the fully executed Conversion Notice to the Borrower’s transfer agent, and pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Borrower’s transfer agent shall issue the applicable Conversion Shares to Lender as hereby provided. Within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Conversion Confirmation (or the date of the Conversion Notice, if the Borrower fails to issue the Conversion Confirmation), provided that the Borrower’s
transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Borrower (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, the Borrower shall cause the transfer agent to (or, if for any reason the Borrower fails to instruct or cause its transfer agent to so act, then pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Lender may request and require the Borrower’s
transfer agent to) electronically transmit the applicable Conversion Shares to which the Lender shall be entitled by crediting the account of the Lender’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system, and provide proof satisfactory to the Lender of such delivery. In the event that the Borrower’s transfer agent is not participating in the DTC FAST program and is not otherwise DWAC
eligible, within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Conversion Confirmation (or the date of the Conversion Notice, if the Borrower fails to issue the Conversion Confirmation), the Borrower shall instruct and cause its transfer agent to (or, if for any reason the Borrower fails to instruct or cause its transfer agent to so act, then pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Lender may request and require the Borrower’s transfer agent to) issue and surrender to a nationally recognized overnight courier
for delivery to the address specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Lender, or its designees, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Lender shall be entitled. To effect conversions hereunder, the Lender shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Borrower unless the entire principal amount of this Debenture, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the
outstanding principal amount of this Debenture in an amount equal to the applicable conversion.  The Lender and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s).  The Lender, and any assignee by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of
this Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

 

 

 

(3)           Record Lender. The Person(s) entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Debenture shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Common Stock as of the Conversion Date.

 

(4)           Failure to Deliver Certificates. If in the case of any Conversion Notice, the certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the Lender by the date required hereby, the Lender shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Borrower
at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion Notice, in which event the Borrower shall promptly return to the Lender any original Debenture delivered to the Borrower and the Lender shall promptly return to the Borrower the Common Stock certificates representing the principal amount of this Debenture unsuccessfully tendered for conversion to the Borrower.

 

(5)           Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Borrower’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action
or inaction by the Lender to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or entity or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Lender or any other person or entity of any obligation to the Borrower or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Lender or any other person or entity, and irrespective of any other circumstance which
might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Lender in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Borrower of any such action the Borrower may have against the Lender. In the event the Lender of this Debenture shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof and accrued but unpaid interest
thereon in accordance with the terms of this Debenture, the Borrower may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Lender or anyone associated or affiliated with the Lender has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Lender, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Debenture shall have been sought and obtained, and the Borrower posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Lender in the amount of 150% of
the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Lender to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Borrower shall issue Conversion Shares upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Borrower fails for any reason to deliver to the Lender such certificate or certificates representing Conversion
Shares pursuant to timing and delivery requirements of this Debenture, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $1.00 per day for each day after the date by which such certificates should have been delivered until such certificates are delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Lender’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, this Debenture or any
agreement securing the indebtedness under this Debenture for the Borrower’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and such Lender shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Lender from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law. Nothing
herein shall prevent the Lender from having the Conversion Shares issued directly by the Borrower’s transfer agent in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, in the event for any reason the Borrower fails to issue or deliver, or cause its transfer agent to issue and deliver, the Conversion Shares to the Lender upon exercise of Lender’s conversion rights hereunder.

 

 

 

 

(6)           Transfer Taxes. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Debenture shall be made without charge to the Lender hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes, or any other issuance or transfer fees of any nature
or kind that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, any such taxes or fees, if payable, to be paid by the Borrower.

 

(d)           Make-Whole Rights. Upon liquidation by the Lender of Conversion Shares issued pursuant to a Conversion Notice, provided that the Lender realizes a net amount
from such liquidation equal to less than the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice (such net realized amount, the “Realized Amount”), the Borrower shall issue to the Lender additional shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock equal to: (i) the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice; minus (ii) the Realized Amount, as evidenced by a reconciliation
statement from the Lender (a “Sale Reconciliation”) showing the Realized Amount from the sale of the Conversion Shares; divided by (iii) the average volume weighted average price of the Borrower’s Common Stock during the five (5) Business Days immediately prior to the date upon which the Lender delivers notice (the “Make-Whole
Notice”) to the Borrower that such additional shares are requested by the Lender (the “Make-Whole Stock Price”) (such number of additional shares to be issued, the “Make-Whole Shares”). Upon receiving the Make-Whole Notice and Sale Reconciliation evidencing the number of Make-Whole Shares requested, the Borrower shall instruct its transfer agent
to issue certificates representing the Make-Whole Shares, which Make whole Shares shall be issued and delivered in the same manner and within the same time frames as set forth in Subsection (c)(2) above. Subsections (c)(3), (c)(4), (c)(5) and (c)(6) above shall be applicable to the issuance of the Make-Whole Shares. The Make-Whole Shares, when issued, shall be deemed to be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock. Following the sale of the Make-Whole Shares by
the Lender: (i) in the event that the Lender receives net proceeds from such sale which, when added to the Realized Amount from the prior relevant Conversion Notice, is less than the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice, the Lender shall deliver an additional Make-Whole Notice to the Borrower following the procedures provided previously in this paragraph, and such procedures and the delivery of Make-Whole Notices shall continue until the Conversion Amount has been fully satisfied; (ii)
in the event that the Lender received net proceeds from the sale of Make-Whole Shares in excess of the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice, such excess amount shall be applied to satisfy any and all amounts owed hereunder in excess of the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice.

 

(e)           Adjustments to Conversion Price.

 

(1)           Stock Dividends and Stock Splits.  If the Borrower, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on outstanding shares of Common
Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Borrower, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Borrower)
outstanding immediately before such event, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.  Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination, or re-classification.

 

 

 

 

(2)           Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (i) the Borrower effects any merger or consolidation of the Borrower with or into another Person, (ii) the Borrower effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets
in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Borrower or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (iv) the Borrower effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such
case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture, the Lender shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if
it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one (1) share of Common Stock (the “Alternate Consideration”).  For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction,
and the Borrower shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.  If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Lender shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Debenture following such Fundamental Transaction.  To
the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Borrower or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Lender a new debenture consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Lender’s right to convert such debenture into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section
and insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

 

(3)           Adjustment to Conversion Price.  Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Debenture, the Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting
forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

(4)           Notice to Allow Conversion by Lender.  If: (A) the Borrower shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Borrower shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the
Common Stock, (C) the Borrower shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Borrower shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Borrower is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, of any compulsory share exchange whereby
the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Borrower shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Borrower, then, in each case, the Borrower shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Debenture, and shall cause to be delivered to the Lender at its last address as it shall appear upon the Borrower’s records, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the
applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating: (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined, or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected
to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.  The
Lender is entitled to convert this Debenture during the 10-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such notice.

NEITHER THE SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION

Issuance and Effective Date: as of ________

 

 

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, GROWLIFE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), whose address is 5400 Carillon Point, Kirkland, WA 98033, promises to pay to the order of TCA GLOBAL CREDIT MASTER FUND, LP (hereinafter,
together with any holder hereof, “Lender”), whose address is 3960 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 500, Las Vegas, Nevada 89169, _______________________________________________ ($___________), together with interest (computed on the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360 day year) thereon and all other fees, charges and all other Obligations due and payable in accordance with the terms of
that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2015, but made effective as of July 9, 2015, executed by and among Borrower and Lender (the “Original Purchase Agreement”), as supplemented by that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2015, but made effective as of August 6, 2015 (the “Supplemental Purchase Agreement”),
together with Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement dated as of October 27, 2015 (the “Restated Purchase Agreement”), as further amended by that certain First Amendment to Amended and Restated Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2016 (the “First Amendment”) (the Original Purchase Agreement, the Supplemental Purchase Agreement, the Restated Purchase
Agreement, and the First Amendment, together with all other renewals, extensions, future advances, amendments, modifications, substitutions, or replacements thereof, sometimes collectively referred to as the “Purchase Agreement”). Capitalized words and phrases not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Purchase Agreement.

 

 

 

 

This _______ Replacement Debenture B (“Debenture”), along with the Sixth Replacement Debenture A being executed by Borrower simultaneously herewith (“Debenture A”), evidence the Debentures and other Obligations incurred
by the Borrower under and pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the terms and conditions under which any payment hereon may be accelerated. The holder of this Debenture is entitled to all of the benefits and security provided for in the Purchase Agreement and all other Transaction Documents executed by and between Borrower and Lender.

 

This Debenture, along with Debenture A being executed and delivered simultaneously herewith, are being both executed in substitution for and to supersede the _______ Replacement Debenture B dated as of ________ (the “Existing Note”), in its entirety. It is the intention
of the Borrower and Lender that while this Debenture and Debenture A replace and supersede the Existing Note, in its entirety, it is not in payment or satisfaction of the Existing Note, but rather is the substitute of one evidence of debt for another without any intent to extinguish the old. Nothing contained in this Debenture or Debenture A shall be deemed to extinguish the indebtedness and obligations evidenced by the Existing Note or constitute a novation of the indebtedness evidenced by the Existing
Note.

 

Principal, interest and other fees and charges shall be paid to Lender as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, or at such other place as the holder of this Debenture shall designate in writing to Borrower. Each Debenture made by Lender, and all payments on account of the principal and interest thereof shall be recorded on the
books and records of Lender and the principal balance as shown on such books and records, or any copy thereof certified by an officer of Lender, shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal amount owing hereunder.

 

Except for such notices as may be required under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Borrower waives presentment, demand, notice, protest, and all other demands, or notices, in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement of this Debenture, and assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence.

 

Borrower shall be solely responsible for the payment of any and all documentary stamps and other taxes applicable to the full face amount of this Debenture.

This Debenture shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, and shall be binding upon Borrower and their legal representatives, successors, and assigns. Wherever possible, each provision of the Purchase Agreement and this Debenture shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision
of the Purchase Agreement or this Debenture shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such provision shall be severable, and be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remaining provisions of the Purchase Agreement or this Debenture.

 

Nothing herein contained, nor in any instrument or transaction relating hereto, shall be construed or so operate as to require any Borrower, or any person liable for the payment of this Debenture, to pay interest in an amount or at a rate grater than the highest rate permissible under applicable law. By acceptance hereof, Lender
hereby warrants and represents to Borrower that Lender has no intention of charging a usurious rate of interest. Should any interest or other charges paid by Borrower, or any parties liable for the payments made pursuant to this Debenture, result in the computation or earning of interest in excess of the highest rate permissible under applicable law, any and all such excess shall be and the same is hereby waived by the holder hereof. Lender shall make adjustments in the Debenture or Purchase Agreement, as applicable,
as necessary to ensure that Borrower will not be required to pay further interest in excess of the amount permitted by applicable law. All such excess shall be automatically credited against and in reduction of the outstanding principal balance. Any portion of such excess which exceeds the outstanding principal balance shall be paid by the holder hereof to the Lender and any parties liable for the payment of this Debenture, it being the intent of the parties hereto that under no circumstances shall Borrower,
or any party liable for the payments hereunder, be required to pay interest in excess of the highest rate permissible under applicable law.

 

 

 

THE HOLDER IS A NON-U.S. PERSON AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN THE UNITED STATES INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.  IT IS HEREBY AGREED AND UNDERSTOOD THAT THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER MAY BE SOLD OR RESOLD ONLY TO NON-U.S. PERSONS.  THE INTEREST PAYABLE HEREUNDER IS PAYABLE ONLY OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES.  ANY U.S. PERSON WHO HOLDS THIS OBLIGATION WILL BE SUBJECT TO LIMITATIONS
UNDER THE UNITED STATES INCOME TAX LAW.

 

Conversion of Debenture. At any time and from time to time while this Debenture is outstanding, but only upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, this Debenture may be, at the sole option of the Lender, convertible into shares of the common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of Borrower, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below.

 

(a)           Voluntary Conversion. At any time while this Debenture is outstanding, but only upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, the Lender may convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal,
accrued and unpaid interest, and any other sums due and payable hereunder or under the Purchase Agreement (such total amount, the “Conversion Amount”) into shares of Common Stock of the Borrower (the “Conversion Shares”) at a price equal to: (i) the Conversion Amount (the numerator); divided by (ii) eighty-five percent
(85%) of the lowest of the daily volume weighted average price of the Borrower’s Common Stock during the five (5) Business Days immediately prior to the Conversion Date, which price shall be indicated in the conversion notice (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “A”, the “Conversion Notice”) (the denominator) (the “Conversion
Price”). The Lender shall submit a Conversion Notice indicating the Conversion Amount, the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion, and where the Conversion Shares should be delivered.

 

(b)           The Lender’s Conversion Limitations. The Borrower shall not effect any conversion of this Debenture, and the Lender shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Debenture, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth
on the Conversion Notice submitted by the Lender, the Lender (together with the Lender’s Affiliates and any Persons acting as a group together with the Lender or any of the Lender’s Affiliates) would beneficially own shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined herein). To ensure compliance with this restriction, prior to delivery of any Conversion Notice, the Lender shall have the right to request that the Borrower provide to the Lender a written statement of
the percentage ownership of the Borrower’s Common Stock that would be beneficially owned by the Lender and its Affiliates in the Borrower if the Lender converted such portion of this Debenture then intended to be converted by Lender. The Borrower shall, within two (2) Business Days of such request, provide Lender with the requested information in a written statement, and the Lender shall be entitled to rely on such written statement from the Borrower in its Conversion Notice and ensuring that its ownership
of the Borrower’s Common Stock is not in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The restriction described in this Section may be waived by Lender, in whole or in part, upon notice not less than sixty-one (61) days prior written notice from the Lender to the Borrower to increase such percentage.

 

 

 

 

For purposes of this Debenture, the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Debenture.  The limitations contained in this
Section shall apply to a successor holder of this Debenture. For purposes of this Debenture, “Person” means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization or a government or any department or agency thereof.

 

(c)           Mechanics of Conversion. The conversion of this Debenture shall be conducted in the following manner:

 

(1)           To convert this Debenture into shares of Common Stock on any date set forth in the Conversion Notice by the Lender (the “Conversion Date”), the Lender shall transmit by facsimile or electronic mail (or otherwise deliver) a
copy of the fully executed Conversion Notice to the Borrower (or, under certain circumstances as set forth below, by delivery of the Conversion Notice to the Borrower’s transfer agent).

 

(2)           Borrower’s Response. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a copy of a Conversion Notice, the Borrower shall as soon as practicable, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of such Conversion
Notice, send, via facsimile or electronic mail (or otherwise deliver) a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice (the “Conversion Confirmation”) to the Lender indicating that the Borrower will process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein. In the event the Borrower fails to issue its Conversion Confirmation within said two (2) Business Day time period, the Lender
shall have the absolute and irrevocable right and authority to deliver the fully executed Conversion Notice to the Borrower’s transfer agent, and pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Borrower’s transfer agent shall issue the applicable Conversion Shares to Lender as hereby provided. Within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Conversion Confirmation (or the date of the Conversion Notice, if the Borrower fails to issue the Conversion Confirmation), provided that the Borrower’s
transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Borrower (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, the Borrower shall cause the transfer agent to (or, if for any reason the Borrower fails to instruct or cause its transfer agent to so act, then pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Lender may request and require the Borrower’s
transfer agent to) electronically transmit the applicable Conversion Shares to which the Lender shall be entitled by crediting the account of the Lender’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system, and provide proof satisfactory to the Lender of such delivery. In the event that the Borrower’s transfer agent is not participating in the DTC FAST program and is not otherwise DWAC
eligible, within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Conversion Confirmation (or the date of the Conversion Notice, if the Borrower fails to issue the Conversion Confirmation), the Borrower shall instruct and cause its transfer agent to (or, if for any reason the Borrower fails to instruct or cause its transfer agent to so act, then pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Lender may request and require the Borrower’s transfer agent to) issue and surrender to a nationally recognized overnight courier
for delivery to the address specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Lender, or its designees, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Lender shall be entitled. To effect conversions hereunder, the Lender shall not be required to physically surrender this Debenture to the Borrower unless the entire principal amount of this Debenture, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the
outstanding principal amount of this Debenture in an amount equal to the applicable conversion.  The Lender and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s).  The Lender, and any assignee by acceptance of this Debenture, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Debenture, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of
this Debenture may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

 

 

 

(3)           Record Lender. The Person(s) entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Debenture shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Common Stock as of the Conversion Date.

 

(4)           Failure to Deliver Certificates. If in the case of any Conversion Notice, the certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the Lender by the date required hereby, the Lender shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Borrower
at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion Notice, in which event the Borrower shall promptly return to the Lender any original Debenture delivered to the Borrower and the Lender shall promptly return to the Borrower the Common Stock certificates representing the principal amount of this Debenture unsuccessfully tendered for conversion to the Borrower.

 

(5)           Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Borrower’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Debenture in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action
or inaction by the Lender to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or entity or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Lender or any other person or entity of any obligation to the Borrower or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Lender or any other person or entity, and irrespective of any other circumstance which
might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Lender in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Borrower of any such action the Borrower may have against the Lender. In the event the Lender of this Debenture shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof and accrued but unpaid interest
thereon in accordance with the terms of this Debenture, the Borrower may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Lender or anyone associated or affiliated with the Lender has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Lender, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Debenture shall have been sought and obtained, and the Borrower posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Lender in the amount of 150% of
the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Lender to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of such injunction, the Borrower shall issue Conversion Shares upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Borrower fails for any reason to deliver to the Lender such certificate or certificates representing Conversion
Shares pursuant to timing and delivery requirements of this Debenture, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $1.00 per day for each day after the date by which such certificates should have been delivered until such certificates are delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Lender’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, this Debenture or any
agreement securing the indebtedness under this Debenture for the Borrower’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and such Lender shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Lender from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law. Nothing
herein shall prevent the Lender from having the Conversion Shares issued directly by the Borrower’s transfer agent in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, in the event for any reason the Borrower fails to issue or deliver, or cause its transfer agent to issue and deliver, the Conversion Shares to the Lender upon exercise of Lender’s conversion rights hereunder.

 

 

 

 

(6)           Transfer Taxes. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Debenture shall be made without charge to the Lender hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes, or any other issuance or transfer fees of any nature
or kind that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, any such taxes or fees, if payable, to be paid by the Borrower.

 

(d)           Make-Whole Rights. Upon liquidation by the Lender of Conversion Shares issued pursuant to a Conversion Notice, provided that the Lender realizes a net amount
from such liquidation equal to less than the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice (such net realized amount, the “Realized Amount”), the Borrower shall issue to the Lender additional shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock equal to: (i) the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice; minus (ii) the Realized Amount, as evidenced by a reconciliation
statement from the Lender (a “Sale Reconciliation”) showing the Realized Amount from the sale of the Conversion Shares; divided by (iii) the average volume weighted average price of the Borrower’s Common Stock during the five (5) Business Days immediately prior to the date upon which the Lender delivers notice (the “Make-Whole
Notice”) to the Borrower that such additional shares are requested by the Lender (the “Make-Whole Stock Price”) (such number of additional shares to be issued, the “Make-Whole Shares”). Upon receiving the Make-Whole Notice and Sale Reconciliation evidencing the number of Make-Whole Shares requested, the Borrower shall instruct its transfer agent
to issue certificates representing the Make-Whole Shares, which Make whole Shares shall be issued and delivered in the same manner and within the same time frames as set forth in Subsection (c)(2) above. Subsections (c)(3), (c)(4), (c)(5) and (c)(6) above shall be applicable to the issuance of the Make-Whole Shares. The Make-Whole Shares, when issued, shall be deemed to be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock. Following the sale of the Make-Whole Shares by
the Lender: (i) in the event that the Lender receives net proceeds from such sale which, when added to the Realized Amount from the prior relevant Conversion Notice, is less than the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice, the Lender shall deliver an additional Make-Whole Notice to the Borrower following the procedures provided previously in this paragraph, and such procedures and the delivery of Make-Whole Notices shall continue until the Conversion Amount has been fully satisfied; (ii)
in the event that the Lender received net proceeds from the sale of Make-Whole Shares in excess of the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice, such excess amount shall be applied to satisfy any and all amounts owed hereunder in excess of the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant Conversion Notice.

 

(e)           Adjustments to Conversion Price.

 

(1)           Stock Dividends and Stock Splits.  If the Borrower, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on outstanding shares of Common
Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Borrower, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Borrower)
outstanding immediately before such event, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.  Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination, or re-classification.

 

 

 

 

(2)           Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Debenture is outstanding: (i) the Borrower effects any merger or consolidation of the Borrower with or into another Person, (ii) the Borrower effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets
in one transaction or a series of related transactions, (iii) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Borrower or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (iv) the Borrower effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such
case, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then upon any subsequent conversion of this Debenture, the Lender shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if
it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one (1) share of Common Stock (the “Alternate Consideration”).  For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction,
and the Borrower shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.  If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Lender shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Debenture following such Fundamental Transaction.  To
the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Borrower or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Lender a new debenture consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Lender’s right to convert such debenture into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section
and insuring that this Debenture (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

 

(3)           Adjustment to Conversion Price.  Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Debenture, the Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting
forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

(4)           Notice to Allow Conversion by Lender.  If: (A) the Borrower shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Borrower shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the
Common Stock, (C) the Borrower shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Borrower shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Borrower is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, of any compulsory share exchange whereby
the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Borrower shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Borrower, then, in each case, the Borrower shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Debenture, and shall cause to be delivered to the Lender at its last address as it shall appear upon the Borrower’s records, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the
applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating: (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined, or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected
to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.  The
Lender is entitled to convert this Debenture during the 10-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such notice.

Exhibit 10.3

 

FIRST AMENDMENT TO DEBT PURCHASE AGREEMENT

 

This FIRST AMENDMENT TO DEBT PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the "Amendment") is

 

dated effective as of the 15th day of August, 2016 (the "Effective Date"),
by and among TCA GLOBAL CREDIT MASTER FUND, LP, a Cayman Islands limited partnership, with an address of 3960 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 500, Las Vegas, NV 89169 ("Assignor" or "Lender"), OLD
MAIN CAPITAL, LLC ("Assignee" or "Old Main"),
and GROWLIFE, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Borrower").

 

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, the Lender, Old Main and the Borrower entered into a Debt Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2016 (the "DPA"); and

 

WHEREAS, the Lender sought to terminate the DPA pursuant to the terms thereof by sending a written termination letter to Old Main dated August 8, 2016 (the "Termination Letter"); and

 

WHEREAS, the Lender and Old Main have agreed to rescind the Termination Letter, and further agreed that the DPA shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, as amended by this Amendment;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants of the parties hereinafter expressed and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, each intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

 

1.                Recitals. The recitations set forth in the preamble of this Amendment are
true and correct and incorporated herein by this reference.

 

2.                Capitalized Terms. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the same meaning ascribed to them
in the DPA or the Purchase Agreement, except as otherwise specifically set forth herein.

 

3.            Conflicts. In the event of any conflict or ambiguity by and between the terms and provisions of this Amendment and the terms and provisions of the DPA,
the terms and provisions of this Amendment shall control, but only to the extent of any such conflict or ambiguity.

 

4.            Termination Rescinded. Old Main and Lender hereby agree that the Termination Letter is hereby rescinded and of not force or effect, and that the DPA
shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, as amended by this Amendment.

 

5.            Purchase by Old Main of Additional Tranches. The parties agree and acknowledge that Old Main has, as of the date hereof, purchased Four Hundred Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($450,000) of the Assigned Debt under the DPA. The parties agree that, from and after the date of this Amendment, Old Main shall only have the right to purchase from the Lender two additional Purchase Tranches of the Assigned Debt, each in the amount of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000), the first of such additional Purchase Tranches (the "First Additional Tranche")
to be closed, and the Applicable Purchase Price therefor paid to Lender, by no later than August 25, 2016, and the second of such additional Purchase Tranches (the "Second Additional Tranche," and together with the First Additional Tranche, the "Additional Tranches")
to be closed, and the Applicable Purchase Price therefor paid to Lender, by no later than September 25, 2016; provided, however, nothing herein shall prevent Old Main

 

 

 

 

from electing to purchase the Additional Tranches at earlier dates by written notice to Lender delivered prior to the applicable Purchase Tranche Closing.

 

 

6.            Termination. If Old Main fails to close and fund either of the Additional Tranches by the dates set forth in Section
5 above, as applicable, then Lender shall have the right to terminate the DPA at any time thereafter upon written notice to Old Main, such notice to be deemed effectively delivered hereunder if sent by e-mail to Adam Long, at Adam@oldmaincapital.com, which termination shall be effective immediately upon delivery of such notice. In addition, the DPA shall automatically terminate, without any further need
for notice to any of the parties hereto, or any other Person, upon the earlier to occur of: (i) Old Main successfully closing and paying the Applicable Purchase Price for each of the Additional Tranches; or (ii) upon Old Main's failure to close and pay the Applicable Purchase Price for any of the Additional Tranches by the dates set forth in Section 5 above.

 

 

7.            Sale of Additional Debt. Notwithstanding anything contained in the DPA to the contrary, Old Main agrees and acknowledges that Lender shall have the right,
from time to time, in its sole and absolute discretion, to: (i) sell any portion of the Assigned Debt other than the Additional Tranches, to any other Person; or (ii) accept payments (or agree to accept payments), from any Person, towards any portion of the Assigned Debt other than the Additional Tranches.

 

 

8.            Execution. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which taken together shall be deemed and considered one and the same Amendment.
In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a ".pdf ” format file or other similar format file, such signature shall be deemed an original for all purposes and shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or ".pdf ” signature page was an original thereof.
