    EGPI FIRECREEK,
INC.

    Convertible
Promissory Note

     

    FOR VALUE RECEIVED, EGPI
Firecreek, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Borrower”),
hereby promises to pay to St. George Investments, LLC, an Illinois limited
liability company, or its assigns (the “Lender,”
and together with the Borrower, the “Parties”),
the principal sum of $86,000.00 together with all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, fees incurred or other amounts owing hereunder, all as set forth below
in this Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”).
This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Note Purchase Agreement of even
date herewith, entered into by and between the Borrower and the Lender (the
“Note
Purchase Agreement”).

     

    1.    Principal and Interest
Payments. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note shall not
accrue unless a Trigger Event (as defined in Section 10 below) occurs. Upon the
occurrence of a Trigger Event, this Note shall accrue simple interest at the
rate of 18.00% per annum from and after the date of the Event of Default,
whether before or after judgment. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
herein, in no event shall the applicable interest rate at any time exceed the
maximum interest rate allowed under applicable law.  If not sooner
converted as provided below, the entire unpaid principal balance and all accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, shall be due and payable six months from the date
of this Note (the “Maturity
Date”).  All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money
of the United States of America delivered to the Lender at the address furnished
to the Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to costs
of collection, if any, then to accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter to
principal.

     

    2.    Conversion.

     

    (a)    Optional
Conversion. At any time or from time
to time prior to payment in full of the entire outstanding principal balance of
this Note, plus accrued interest and fees hereunder (collectively, the “Outstanding
Amount”), the Lender shall have the right, at the Lender’s option, to
convert the Outstanding Amount on this Note, in whole or in part (the “Conversion
Amount”), into common stock (the “Common
Stock”) of the Borrower.  The number of shares of Common Stock
to be issued upon such conversion shall be determined by dividing (a) the
Conversion Amount by (b) seventy five percent (75%) of the lower of (i) $0.08
per share, or (ii) the average volume-weighted average price (the “VWAP”) for
the three business days with the lowest average VWAP of the twenty trading days
immediately preceding the date set forth on the Conversion Notice (defined
below) (the lower of the foregoing, the Conversion
Price”).  The trading data used to compute the VWAP shall be as
reported by Bloomberg, LP, or if such information is not then being reported by
Bloomberg, LP, then as reported by such other data information source as may be
selected by the Lender.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (b)    Conversion Mechanics.
In order to convert this Note into Common Stock, the Lender hereof shall give
written notice to the Borrower at its principal corporate office (which notice,
notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, may be given via facsimile,
email, or other means in the discretion of the Lender) pursuant to the form
attached hereto as Exhibit
A (the “Conversion
Notice”) of the election to convert the same pursuant to this
Section.  Such Conversion Notice shall state the Conversion Amount,
the number of shares of Common Stock to which Lender is entitled pursuant to the
Conversion Notice (the “Conversion
Shares”), and the account in which the shares of Common Stock are to be
deposited (the “Lender
Account”).  The Borrower shall immediately, but in no event
later than three days after receipt of a Conversion Notice, deliver the
Conversion Shares to the Lender Account.  Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, all such deliveries of Conversion Shares shall be
electronic, via Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC).  In the event
the Borrower fails to deliver the Conversion Shares within three days of receipt
of the Conversion Notice, in addition to all other remedies available to the
Lender hereunder and at law or in equity, a penalty equal to 1.5% of the
Conversion Amount shall be added to the balance of this Note per
day.  The conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately
prior to the close of business on the date of the Conversion Notice, and the
person or entity entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock upon such
conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of
such shares of Common Stock as of such date.

     

    (c)    No Fractional Shares.
Conversion calculations pursuant to Section 2(a) shall be rounded up to the
nearest whole share, and no fractional shares shall be issuable by the Borrower
upon conversion of this Note. All shares issuable upon a conversion of this Note
(including fractions thereof) shall be aggregated for purposes of determining
whether such conversion would result in the issuance of a fractional
share.

     

    (d)    No
Impairment.  The Borrower will not, by amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the
Borrower, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all
the provisions of this Section 2 and in the taking of all such action as may be
necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the Lender
of this Note against impairment.

     

    3.    Prepayment by the Borrower.
The Borrower may, in its sole and absolute discretion, pay all or any portion of
the outstanding principal balance along with any accrued but unpaid interest on
this Note at any time prior to the Maturity Date.

     

    4.    Certain Adjustments. The
number and class or series of shares into which this Note may be converted under
Section 2 shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the following
provisions:

     

    (a)    Computation of Adjusted
Conversion Price.  Except as hereinafter provided, in case the
Borrower shall at any time after the date hereof issue or sell any (i) shares of
its common shares or preferred shares convertible into its common shares, or
(ii) debt, warrants, options or other instruments or securities which are
convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock (together herein
referred to as “Equity
Securities”), in each case for consideration (or with a conversion price)
per common share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to
the issuance or sale of such securities or instruments, or without
consideration, then forthwith upon such issuance or sale, the Conversion Price
shall (until another such issuance or sale) be reduced to the price (calculated
to the nearest full cent) equal to the price (or conversion price) of any such
securities or instruments; provided, however, that in no
event shall the Conversion Price be adjusted pursuant to this computation to an
amount in excess of the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such
computation. For the purposes of this Section 4, the term Conversion Price shall
mean the Conversion Price per share set forth in Section 2(a) hereof, as
adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this
Section.

    For purposes of any computation to be
made in accordance with this Section 4, the following provisions shall be
applicable:

     

    (i)    In case
of the issuance or sale of any shares of Equity Securities for a consideration
part or all of which shall be cash, the amount of the cash consideration shall
be deemed to be the amount of cash received by the Borrower for such shares (or,
if shares of stock are offered by the Borrower for subscription, the
subscription price, or, if either of such securities shall be sold to
underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription price, the
public offering price, before deducting therefrom any compensation paid or
discount allowed in the sale, underwriting or purchase thereof by underwriters
or dealers or other persons or entities performing similar services), or any
expenses incurred in connection therewith and less any amounts payable to
security holders or any affiliate thereof, including, without limitation, any
employment agreement, royalty, consulting agreement, covenant not to compete,
earnout or contingent payment right or similar arrangement, agreement or
understanding, whether oral or written; all such amounts shall be valued at the
aggregate amount payable thereunder whether such payments are absolute or
contingent and irrespective of the period or uncertainty of payment, the rate of
interest, if any, or the contingent nature thereof.

     

    (ii)    In case
of the issuance or sale (otherwise than as a dividend or other distribution on
any stock of the Borrower) of shares of Equity Securities for a consideration
part or all of which shall be other than cash, the amount of the consideration
therefore other than cash shall be deemed to be the value of such consideration
as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Borrower.

     

    (iii)    Shares of
Equity Securities issuable by way of dividend or other distribution on any
capital stock of the Borrower shall be deemed to have been issued immediately
after the opening of business on the day following the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or other
distribution and shall be deemed to have been issued without
consideration.

     

    (iv)    The
reclassification of securities of the Borrower other than shares of Equity
Securities into securities including shares of Equity Securities shall be deemed
to involve the issuance of such shares of Equity Securities for consideration
other than cash immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for
the determination of security holders entitled to receive such shares, and the
value of the consideration allocable to such shares of stock shall be determined
as provided in this Section 4.

     

    (v)    The
number of shares of Equity Securities at any one time outstanding shall include
the aggregate number of shares issued or issuable (subject to readjustment upon
the actual issuance thereof) upon the exercise of then outstanding options,
rights, warrants, and convertible and exchangeable securities.

    (b)    Adjustment for
Reorganization or Recapitalization.  If, while this Note remains
outstanding and has not been converted, there shall be a reorganization or
recapitalization of the Borrower (other than a combination, reclassification,
exchange or subdivision of shares otherwise provided for herein), all necessary
or appropriate lawful provisions shall be made so that the Lender shall
thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of this Note, the greatest
number of shares of stock or other securities or property that a holder of the
class of securities deliverable upon conversion of this Note would have been
entitled to receive in such reorganization or recapitalization if this Note had
been converted immediately prior to such reorganization or recapitalization, all
subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 4. If the per share
consideration payable to the Lender for such class of securities in connection
with any such transaction is in a form other than cash or marketable securities,
then the value of such consideration shall be determined in good faith by the
Borrower’s Board of Directors. The foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall
similarly apply to successive reorganizations or recapitalizations and to the
stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable
upon the conversion of this
Note. In all events, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of
the provisions of this Note (including adjustment of the conversion price and
number of shares into which this Note is then convertible pursuant to the terms
and conditions of this Note) with respect to the rights and interests of the
Lender after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Note shall
be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any
shares or other property deliverable or issuable after such reorganization or
recapitalization upon conversion of this Note.

     

    (c)    Adjustments for Split
Subdivision or Combination of Shares.  If the Borrower at any time
while this Note remains outstanding and unconverted, shall split or subdivide
any class of securities into which this Note may be converted into a different
number of securities of the same class, the number of shares of such class
issuable upon conversion of this Note immediately prior to such split or
subdivision shall be proportionately increased and the conversion price for such
class of securities shall be proportionately decreased. If the Borrower at any
time while this Note, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unconverted
shall combine any class of securities into which this Note may be converted,
into a different number of securities of the same class, the number of shares of
such class issuable upon conversion of this Note immediately prior to such
combination shall be proportionately decreased and the conversion price for such
class of securities shall be proportionately increased.

     

    (d)    Adjustments for Dividends in
Stock or Other Securities or Property. If, while this Note remains
outstanding and unconverted, the holders of any class of securities as to which
conversion rights under this Note exist at the time shall have received, or, on
or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible stockholders,
shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or
additional stock or other securities or property (other than cash) of the
Borrower by way of dividend, then and in each case, this Note shall represent
the right to acquire, in addition to the number of shares of such class of
security receivable upon conversion of this Note, and without payment of any
additional consideration therefor, the amount of such other or additional stock
or other securities or property (other than cash) of the Borrower that such
holder would hold on the date of such conversion had it been the holder of
record of the class of security receivable upon conversion of this Note on the
date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and
including the date of such conversion, retained such shares and/or all other
additional stock available by it as aforesaid during said period, giving effect
to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this
Section 4.

    (e)    No Change Necessary.
The form of this Note need not be changed because of any adjustment in the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon its conversion.

     

    5.    Further Adjustments. In case at any time or,
from time to time, the Borrower shall take any action that affects the class of
securities into which this Note may be converted under Section 2, other than an
action described herein, then, unless such action will not have a material
adverse effect upon the rights of the Lender, the number of shares of such class
of securities (or other securities) into which this Note is convertible shall be
adjusted in such a manner and at such time as shall be equitable under the
circumstances.

     

    6.    Certificate as to Adjustments.
Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to Section 4 or
Section 5, the Borrower at its sole expense shall promptly compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to
the Lender a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and
showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.
The Borrower shall, upon the written request at any time of the Lender, furnish
or cause to be furnished to the Lender a like certificate setting forth (i) such
adjustments and readjustments, and (ii) the number and class of securities and
the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon
the conversion of this Note under Section 2.

     

    7.    Change of Control. In the
event of (i) any transaction or series of related transactions (including any
reorganization, merger or consolidation) that results in the transfer of 50% or
more of the outstanding voting power of the Borrower, or (ii) a sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Borrower to another person or entity,
this Note shall be automatically due and payable. The Borrower will give the
Lender not less than ten (10) business days prior written notice of the
occurrence of any events referred to in this Section 7.

     

    8.    Representations and
Warranties.  In addition to the representations and warranties
set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement, the Borrower hereby represents and
warrants to the Lender that:

     

    (a)    The
Borrower understands and acknowledges that the number of Conversion Shares
issuable upon conversion of this Note will increase in certain circumstances.
The Borrower further acknowledges that its obligation to issue Conversion Shares
upon conversion of this Note in accordance with its terms is absolute and
unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on
the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Borrower;

     

    (b)    The
Conversion Shares are enforceable against the Borrower and that the Borrower
presently has no claims or defenses of any nature whatsoever with respect to the
Conversion Shares;

    (c)    The
Borrower’s Common Stock is registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange
Act”);

     

    (d)    The
Company is not and for at least the last 12 months prior to the date hereof has
not been a “shell company,” as defined in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of Rule 144 or
Rule 12b­2 of the Exchange Act;

     

    (e)    The
Company is subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act and has filed all required reports under section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act during the 12 months prior to the date hereof (or for such shorter
period that the issuer was required to file such reports), other than Form 8-K
reports; and

     

    (f)    The
issuance of this Note is duly authorized. Upon conversion in accordance with the
terms of this Note, the Conversion Shares, when issued, will be validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable, free from all taxes, liens, claims, pledges,
mortgages, restrictions, obligations, security interests and encumbrances of any
kind, nature and description. The Company has reserved from its duly authorized
capital stock the appropriate number of shares of Common Stock for issuance upon
conversion of this Note as required by the terms of this Note.

     

    9.    Affirmative and Negative
Covenants. In addition to the covenants set forth in the Note Purchase
Agreement, the Borrower covenants and agrees that, while any amounts under this
Note are outstanding, it shall:

     

    (a)    Do all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate
existence, including, without limitation. all licenses or similar qualifications
required by it to engage in its business in all jurisdictions in which it is at
the time so engaged; and continue to engage in business of the same general type
as conducted as of the date hereof; and (ii) continue to conduct its business
substantially as now conducted or as otherwise permitted hereunder;

     

    (b)    Pay and
discharge promptly when due all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or
levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in respect of its
property before the same shall become delinquent or in default, which, if
unpaid, might reasonably be expected to give rise to liens or charges upon such
properties or any part thereof, unless, in each case, the validity or amount
thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the
Borrower has maintained adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance
with GAAP;

     

    (c)    Comply in
all material respects with all federal, state and local laws and regulations,
orders, judgments, decrees, injunctions, rules, regulations, permits, licenses,
authorizations and requirements applicable to it (collectively, “Requirements”)
of all governmental bodies, departments, commissions, boards, companies or
associations insuring the premises, courts, authorities, officials or officers
which are applicable to the Borrower or any of its properties, except where the
failure to so comply would not have a material adverse effect (a “Material Adverse
Effect”) on the Borrower or my of its properties; provided, however, that nothing
provided herein shall prevent the Borrower from contesting the validity or the
application of any Requirements;

    (d)    Keep
proper records and books of account with respect to its business activities, in
which proper entries, reflecting all of their financial transactions, are made
in accordance with GAAP;

     

    (e)    From the
date hereof until all the Conversion Shares either have been sold by the Lender,
or may permanently be sold by the Lender without any restrictions pursuant to
Rule 144, (the “Registration
Period”) the Borrower shall file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) in a
timely manner all required reports under section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act, as amended, and such reports shall conform to the requirement of the
Exchange Act and the SEC for filing thereunder;

     

    (f)    The
Borrower shall furnish to the Lender so long as the Lender owns Common Stock,
promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Borrower that it has
complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, (ii) a copy of the most
recent annual or quarterly report of the Borrower and such other reports and
documents so filed by the Borrower, and (iii) such other information as may be
reasonably requested to permit the Lender to sell such securities pursuant to
Rule 144 without registration;

     

    (g)    During
the Registration Period, the Borrower shall not terminate its status as an
issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act even if the Exchange Act
or the rules and regulations thereunder would otherwise permit such
termination;

     

    (h)    On the
date hereof, the Borrower shall reserve for issuance to the Lender 2,000,000
shares for issuance upon conversions of the Note (the “Share Reserve”). The
Company represents that it has sufficient authorized and unissued shares of
Common Stock available to create the Share Reserve after considering all other
commitments that may require the issuance of Common Stock. The Company shall
take all action reasonably necessary to at all times have authorized, and
reserved for the purpose of issuance, such number of shares of Common Stock as
shall be necessary to effect the full conversion of the Note. If at any time the
Share Reserve is insufficient to effect the full conversion of a Note, the
Company shall increase the Share Reserve accordingly. If the Company does not
have sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock available to
increase the Share Reserve, the Company shall call and hold a special meeting of
the shareholders within thirty (30) days of such occurrence, for the sole
purpose of increasing the number of shares authorized. The Company’s management
shall recommend to the shareholders to vote in favor of increasing the number of
shares of Common Stock authorized. Management shall also vote all of its shares
in favor of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common
Stock;

     

    (i)    The
