CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts. Because they discuss future events or conditions, forward-looking statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “may,” “seek,” “plan,” “might,” “will,” “expect,” “predict,” “project,” “forecast,” “potential,” “continue” negatives thereof or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are based on various underlying assumptions and current expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievement to be materially different from the results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

 

We cannot predict all of the risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, such information should not be regarded as representations that the results or conditions described in such statements or that our objectives and plans will be achieved and we do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are found at various places throughout this Report and include information concerning possible or assumed future results of our operations, including statements about potential acquisition or merger targets; business strategies; future cash flows; financing plans; plans and objectives of management; any other statements regarding future acquisitions, future cash needs, future operations, business plans and future financial results, and any other statements that are not historical facts.

 

These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Report. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Report and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Report.

 

Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

MAX SOUND CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF MARCH 31, 2016

(UNAUDITED)

 

 

NOTE 1           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION

 

(A) Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Max Sound Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware on December 9, 2005, under the name 43010, Inc. The Company business operations are focused primarily on developing and launching audio technology software.

 

Effective March 1, 2011, the Company filed with the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation changing our name from So Act Network, Inc. to Max Sound Corporation.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in The United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10Q and Articles of Regulations S-X.. Accordingly, they do not include all the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations.

 

It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

 

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2015.

 

(B) Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

(C) Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

(D) Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of three to five years.

 

(E) Research and Development

 

The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 350, Intangibles - Goodwill & Other (“ASC Topic 350”) . Costs incurred in the planning stage of a website are expensed as research and development while costs incurred in the development stage are capitalized and amortized over the life of the asset, estimated to be three years. Expenses subsequent to the launch have been expensed as website development expenses.

 

(F) Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company at times has cash in banks in excess of FDIC insurance limits. At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $400,802 and $0, respectively in excess of FDIC insurance limits.

 

(G) Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognized revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB Codification Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC Topic 605”). Under ASC Topic 605, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We had revenues of $0 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

(H) Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and include the costs of public relations activities. These costs are included in consulting and general and administrative expenses and totaled $0 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

(I) Inventories

 

Inventory consists primarily of finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted average method and average cost is recomputed after each inventory purchase or sale. Inventory is periodically reviewed in order to identify obsolete or damaged inventory and impaired values. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the inventory was impaired and valued at $0. The Company had no inventory as of March 31, 2016.

 

  (J) Identifiable Intangible Assets

 

ASC 350 prescribes a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lives, which is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. ASC 350 also allows preparers to qualitatively assess goodwill impairment through a screening process which would permit companies to forgo Step 1 of their annual goodwill impairment process. This qualitative screening process will hereinafter be referred to as "Step 0". Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life are tested for impairment on an annual basis, or earlier when events or changes in circumstances suggest the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. The Company has elected to perform its annual assessment on $16,796,237 of intangible assets. For the year ended December 31, 2015, $15,703,616 impairment loss has been recorded due to a change in business model, this being significantly impacted by the impairment of Liquid Spins assets, as digital music sales are no longer relevant in today’s market for the following assets:

 

      Initial Cost       Impairment Loss       Balance as of March 31, 2016  
Trademarks   $ 7,500,000     $ (6,630,419 )     869,581  
Distribution rights     7,372,561       (7,372,561 )     —    
Licensing Rights     1,923,401       (1,700,393 )     223,008  
Other     275       (243 )     32  
    $ 16,796,237       (15,703,616 )     1,064,426  

 

As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $869,581 and $869,581, respectively, of costs related to registering a trademark and acquiring technology rights [audio technology known as Max Audio Technology (MAXD)] have been capitalized. It has been determined that the trademark and technology rights have an indefinite useful life and are not subject to amortization. However, the trademark and technology rights will be reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. As a result of this review, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $6,630,419 that is recorded as impairment loss on intangible asset for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

On November 15, 2012, the Company acquired the rights to assets and audio technology known as Liquid Spins, Inc. through a share exchange, whereby the Company issued 24,752,475 shares of common stock for their rights in Liquid Spins technology. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $0 and $0, respectively, of costs related to this intangible remain capitalized. The technology was placed in service on August 23, 2013 with a useful life of 10 years. During 2015, the Company the reviewed the intangible asset for impairment and determined that certain items had been impaired due to obsolescence. As a result of this review, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $7,372,562 that is recorded as impairment loss on intangible asset.

 

On May 19, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with VSL Communications to acquire the rights to intellectual property titled “Optimized Data Transmission System and Method” (“ODT”) through a cash payment of $500,000 in addition to a share issuance, whereby the Company issued 10,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at $1,000,000 ($0.10/share). In exchange, the Company received a perpetual, exclusive, worldwide license to the ODT technology for all fields of use. In addition, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at $120,000 ($0.12/share), as compensation for the introduction and identification of a seller based on the agreement dated April 10, 2014. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $187,830 and $187,830, respectively, of costs related to the “ODT” intangible asset remains capitalized. The technology will be reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. In connection with this agreement, the Company is obligated to make an additional five (5) payments totaling $1,000,000 to be made every 30 days, with the thirty (30) day periods to be waived if fund raising occurs on an anticipated faster time line. The payments of additional cash are contingent on the following funding criteria:

 

  The Company shall pay set increments of cash based on a percentage of gross funds received through funds raised.
  The Company shall pay 20% of such monies as soon as they are received.

 

In connection with funds raised through March 31, 2016, the Company recorded a liability and expensed $1,068,665 as royalty cost, related to the 20% fee, as of December 31, 2015, $30,000, has been paid. The remaining liability as of March 31, 2016, is $1,033,000 and is included in accounts payable.

 

The Company shall act as the exclusive agent to facilitate and negotiate any opportunities on behalf of ODT to Companies, Organizations and other qualified entities. Upon any closing, ODT shall receive 50% of gross dollars and the Company shall receive the other 50% at the time of a completion of any transaction opportunity, including legal settlements after subtracting applicable contingent legal fees. The term of the agreement is for the life of the acquired intellectual property. As a result of this review, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $6,630,419 on intangible asset $1,432,170.

 

 
 

 

On August 11, 2014, the Company and VSL simultaneously filed trade secret and patent infringement actions against Google, Inc. and its subsidiaries, YouTube, LLC and On2 Technologies, Inc., relating to proprietary and patented technology owned by Vedanti Systems Limited, a subsidiary of VSL.  The patent infringement complaint was brought in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware and the trade secret suit was filed in Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara.  The lawsuits contend that, in 2010, while Google was in discussions with Vedanti about the possibility of acquiring Vedanti's patented digital video streaming techniques and other proprietary methods, Google gained access to and received technical guidance regarding Vedanti’s proprietary codec, a computer program capable of encoding and decoding a digital data stream or signal.  The complaints allege that soon after the two companies initiated negotiations, Google began implementing Vedanti's technology into its own WebM/VP8 video codec without informing Vedanti, and without compensating Vedanti for its use.  Plaintiffs are seeking a permanent injunction against Google, compensatory damages, as well as treble damages. As exclusive agent to VSL to enforce all rights with respect to the subject technology, the Company has hired Grant & Eisenhofer, PA to represent the Company and VSL in the suits. On November 24, 2015 the District Court entered an order granting the Google defendants’ motion to dismiss. The Company timely filed it notice of appeal with the appeals court on February 22, 2016. The two issues on appeal are, (i) whether the district court erred by granting the Google defendants’ motion to dismiss the Company’s lawsuit on the ground that the Company lacked standing to sue the Google defendants for infringement of the 339 patent, and (ii) whether the district court erred by denying the Company’s motion for leave to amend the complaint and add as a party VSL, a former licensee of the 339 patent to cure any defect in prudential standing to the extent VSL is a necessary party. These cases will be vigorously prosecuted and the Company believes it has a good likelihood of success. 

 

On May 22, 2014, the Company entered into a five (5) year agreement to acquire the rights to intellectual property titled “Engineered Architecture” (“EA Technology”) through a cash payment of $50,000 in addition to a share issuance, whereby the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at $394,000 ($0.0985/share). In exchange, the Company received for the term of the agreement, the exclusive worldwide right to use the EA Technology. As of December 31, 2015, $35,178 of costs related to this intangible remains capitalized. The technology will be reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. As a result of this review, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $268,223 on intangible asset.

 

In connection with this agreement, the Company is obligated to make an additional five (5) payments totaling $500,000 to be made every 30 days, with the thirty (30) day periods to be waived if fund raising occurs on an anticipated faster time line. The payments of additional cash are contingent on the following funding criteria:

 

  The Company shall pay set increments of cash based on a percentage of gross funds received through funds raised.
  The Company shall pay 10% of such monies as soon as they are received.

 

In connection with funds raised through March 31, 2016, the Company recorded a liability and expensed $534,332 as royalty cost, related to the 10% fee, as of March 31 , 2016, $40,000 has been paid. The remaining liability as of March 31, 2016, is $501,500 and is included in accounts payable.

  

The Company shall act as the exclusive agent to facilitate and negotiate any opportunities on behalf of EA Technology to Companies, Organizations and other qualified entities. Upon any closing, EA shall receive 50% of gross dollars and the Company shall receive the other 50% at the time of a completion of any transaction opportunity, including legal settlements after subtracting applicable contingent legal fees. In the event the Company sublicenses EA to other entities, profits shall be split evenly 50%/50%.

  

(K) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangible Assets with Definite Life

 

The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with ASC Topic 360-10-05, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” ASC Topic 360-10-05 requires that long-lived assets, such as technology rights, be reviewed for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value. The Company recorded $0 and $15,703,617 in impairment of the intangible asset for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, respectively (See Note 1J).

 

(L) Loss Per Share

 

In accordance with accounting guidance now codified as FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential of shares of common stock outstanding during the period including stock options or warrants, using the treasury stock method (by using the average stock price for the period to determine the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants), and convertible debt or convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential of shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive. Because of the Company’s net losses, the effects of stock warrants and stock options would be anti-dilutive and accordingly, is excluded from the computation of earnings per share.

 

The computation of basic and diluted loss per share for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 excludes the common stock equivalents of the following potentially dilutive securities because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

 

 
 

 

    March 31, 2016   March 31, 2015
                 
Stock Warrants (Exercise price - $0.25 - $.52/share)     18,270,690       6,500,000  
Stock Options (Exercise price - $0.10 - $.50/share)     2,866,652       15,566,652  
Convertible Debt  (Exercise price - $0.07 - $.0817/share)     2,791,745,292       177,891,339  
Series A Convertible Preferred Shares ($0.0/share)     125,000,000       —   
                 
Total     2,937,882,634       5,000,000  

 

(M) Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”) Income Taxes. Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company's federal income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by the IRS for the years prior to 2011, and the related state income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by state authorities for the years prior to 2010.

(N) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest–Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance will be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2015-03 on its balance sheets.

 

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements but not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

 

(P) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts on the Company’s financial instruments including prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, derivative liability, convertible note payable, and loan payable - related party, approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

 

We adopted accounting guidance for financial and non-financial assets and liabilities (ASC 820). The adoption did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. This guidance discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The guidance utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use.

 

The following are the major categories of liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis: as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, using quoted prices in active markets for identical liabilities (Level 1); significant other observable inputs (Level 2); and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

 

 
 

 

    March 31, 2016   December 31, 2015
                                 
    Fair Value Measurement Using   Fair Value Measurement Using
                                 
      Level 1       Level 2       Level 3       Total       Level 1       Level 2       Level 3       Total  
                                                                 
Derivative Liabilities     —         8,331,961       —         8,331,961       —         3,684,184       —         3,684,184  
Intangible Assets     —         1,064,425       —         1,064,426       —         1,092,621       —         1,092,621  

 

(Q) Stock-Based Compensation

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. Under FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant. The Company applies this statement prospectively.

 

Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718. FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments. In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

 

(R) Reclassification

 

Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the Company's net loss or cash flows.

 

(S) Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments.

 

Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives. In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrants, are also valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. 

 

(T) Original Issue Discount

 

For certain convertible debt issued, the Company provides the debt holder with an original issue discount. The original issue discount is recorded to debt discount, reducing the face amount of the note and is amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

 

(U) Debt Issue Costs and Debt Discount

 

The Company may pay debt issue costs, and record debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of convertible debt. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.

   

(V) Licensing & Distribution

 

On June 20, 2015, the Company entered into a license agreement with Santok LTD of United Kingdom (“Santok). The term of the agreement is three years. Santok will pay the Company a royalty fee of $1.50 for each licensed product. Santok guarantees to the Company a minimum total of 150,000 cumulative licensed product installation with a minimum total guaranteed value of $225,000 over the three years of the agreement. If the total royalty paid is less than the guaranteed value, Santok will pay the difference.

 

On July 13, 2015, the Company entered into a license agreement with Luna Mobile, Inc. of United States (“Luna). The term of the agreement is three years. Luna will pay the Company a royalty fee of $1.50 for each licensed product manufactured and sold.

 

 
 

 

NOTE 2           GOING CONCERN 

 

As reflected in the accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $7,041,362 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, has an accumulated deficit of 70,336,394 as of March 31, 2016, and has negative cash flow from operations of $531,507 for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

 

As the Company continues to incur losses, transition to profitability is dependent upon the successful commercialization of its products and achieving a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure.

 

The Company may never achieve profitability, and unless and until it does, the Company will continue to need to raise additional cash. Management intends to fund future operations through additional private or public debt or equity offerings. Based on the Company’s operating plan, existing working capital at December 31, 2014 was not sufficient to meet the cash requirements to fund planned operations through March 31, 2016 without additional sources of cash. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 4           DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

The Company identified conversion features embedded within convertible debt issued in 2016 and 2015 and warrants issued in 2016 and 2015. The Company has determined that the features associated with the embedded conversion option should be accounted for at fair value as a derivative liability.

 

As a result of the application of ASC No. 815, the fair value of the conversion feature is summarized as follow:

 

Derivative Liability - December 31, 2015        
Fair value at the commitment date for convertible instruments        
Fair value at the commitment date for warrants issued        
Change in fair value of embedded derivative liability for warrants issued        
Change in fair value of embedded derivative liability for convertible instruments     2,479,427  
Reclassification to additional paid in capital for financial instruments that ceased to be a derivative liability     (776,399 )
Change from repayment   $ 3,684,084  
Derivative Liability -March 31, 2016        

    

The Company recorded the debt discount to the extent of the gross proceeds raised, and expensed immediately the remaining value of the derivative as it exceeded the gross proceeds of the note. The Company recorded a derivative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 of $2,081,092 and $167,523, respectively.

 

The fair value at the commitment and re-measurement dates for the Company’s derivative liabilities were based upon the following management assumptions as of March 31, 2016:

 

      Commitment Date       Re-measurement Date  
                 
Expected dividends:     0 %     0 %
Expected volatility:     133% - 262%       150% -360.32%  
Expected term:     0.41 - 3 Years       0.12–2.96 Years  
Risk free interest rate:     0.06% - 1.31%       0.04% - .1.31%  

  

The fair value at the commitment and re-measurement dates for the Company’s derivative liabilities were based upon the following management assumptions as of December 31, 2015:

 

      Commitment Date       Re-measurement Date  
                 
Expected dividends:     0 %     0 %
Expected volatility:     133% - 221%       177% -238.77%  
Expected term:     0.41 - 3 Years       0.12–2.9 Years  
Risk free interest rate:     0.06% - 1.31%       0.12% - .1.31%

NOTE 8       LITIGATION

 

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm its business.

 

On January 21, 2015, the Company filed a patent infringement action against Netflix Inc., Netflix Luxembourg S.a.r.l. and Netflix International B.V. with the District Court of Mannheim, Germany. The asserted patent is the same patent as in the German proceedings against Google Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Complaint alleges that Netflix Inc. and its subsidiaries are offering and transmitting video streams to German customers as part of their video-on-demand business model; the videos being encoded and transmitted in a manner claimed and protected by the patent. The Company primarily seeks a permanent injunction against the Defendants, plus damages and information regarding past infringements. The Company, upon advice of counsel, decided withdraw the litigation prior to oral argument, which withdrawal is without prejudice to re-file the lawsuit in the future.

 

The Company intends to vigorously prosecute these various patent infringement litigations. The Company believes it has a good likelihood of success associated with these patent infringement lawsuits. However, no assurance can be given by the Company as to the ultimate outcome of these actions or its effect on the Company. The law firm is prosecuting this action on a pure contingency fee basis.

 

On January 26, 2015, the Company was named as a defendant in an action filed in the Superior Court for the State of California and the County of Los Angeles captioned Bibicoff Family Trust v. Max Sound Corporation (Case No. SC123679). In the complaint the plaintiff alleges a cause of action for breach of contract associated with the non-payment by the Company for certain services plaintiff agreed to provide to the Company. The Company interposed a cross-complaint against plaintiffs averring causes of action for breach of contract, fraud, and negligent misrepresentation by defendants with respect to defendants’ fraudulent and intentional undisclosed inability to perform the services that plaintiffs’ agreed to perform that are the subject of this dispute The parties recently participated in a mediation and have arrived at a settlement and resolution of the matter. The Company agreed in connection with the settlement to pay Bibicoff Trust $100,000 over a 13 month installment period commencing March 10, 2016, with the caveat that such settlement amount will be reduced to $93,000.00 in the event the Company pays $20,000.00 on or before March 10, 2016, which the Company successfully achieved thus reducing the settlement amount to $93,000.00.

 

On May 13, 2015 Google's “motion to dismiss” was denied by the Northern District of California court in a seven page order, stating that Max Sound had sufficiently alleged the existence and validity of the '339 Patent.

 

On June 11, 2015, the District Court of Mannheim announced it had scheduled the hearing in the video streaming patent case against Google and YouTube for December 8, 2015; however, at the oral argument hearing the Company, upon advice of counsel, determined that it was in the Company’s best interests to withdraw the action such that it cannot be re-filed against the same parties. The case was filed by Max Sound against Google Inc., Mountain View, USA, Google Commerce Ltd., Dublin, Ireland, Google Germany GmbH, Hamburg, Germany, and the Google subsidiary YouTube LLC, San Bruno, USA, in December 2014 because of the infringement of a video streaming patent, which is valid for the world's most important markets. Max Sound requested the German court to order Google and YouTube to stop streaming video via using the current VP8 or H.264 video codecs and to stop selling video-enabled devices like Nexus Phones and Chromecast sticks. Further requests are that information about any profits is rendered and that Google and YouTube are declared liable for damages based on patent infringement. Max Sound claims that Google and YouTube are using the technology protected by European Patent EP 2 026 277, which allows far more economically efficient transport of digital content due to greatly optimized data capacity.

 

MaxD v. VSL, et al. This is an arbitration action brought by the Company against VSL Communications, Ltd., Vedanti Systems, Ltd., Constance Nash, Robert Newell and eTech Investments as respondents before the American Arbitration Association for breach of contract, fraud, and other causes of action. Google filed a motion to dismiss the litigation based upon the argument that that the Company’s underlying agreement with VSL did not confer on the Company legal standing to pursue the patent infringement claims against Google. On November 24, 2015 the Court granted the motion to dismiss in favor of Google. The Company timely filed it notice of appeal with the appeals court on February 22, 2016. The two issues on appeal are, (i) whether the district court erred by granting the Google defendants’ motion to dismiss the Company’s lawsuit on the ground that the Company lacked standing to sue the Google defendants for infringement of the 339 patent, and (ii) whether the district court erred by denying the Company’s motion for leave to amend the complaint and add as a party VSL, a former licensee of the 339 patent to cure any defect in prudential standing to the extent VSL is a necessary party. As noted

herein, this finding by the Court was appealed to the Federal Circuit court of Appeals on February 22, 2016. The Circuit Court docketed the appeal on February 24, 2016, and the parties will be briefing the appeal during the next several months.. Subsequently, the Company has pursued successfully in arbitration claims against VSL to legally enforce the agreement and to compel VSL to comply with the agreement’s terms and conditions that inter alia VSL must fully cooperate with the Company to cure any issues the Court raised with standing to pursue the claims. This arbitration is still ongoing.

 

Attia v. Google and Flux Factory. As of December 31, 2015:  Defendants had filed a demurrer to the complaint.  The demurrer was pending as of December 31, 2015. Current status:  On February 1, 2016, the court granted in part and denied in part the demurrer and provided plaintiff leave to amend the complaint to cure certain deficiencies.  The amended complaint was filed on February 8, 2016.  The case is set for scheduling conference on May 6, 2016 after which the case should proceed to the discovery phase.

 

No assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of these actions or its effect on the Company.

On April 11, 2016 the Company repaid $335,808 in convertible notes to Bay Private Equity, Inc. The note was dated October 31, 2015 with a principal balance of $218,325.

 

On April 12, 2016 the Company repaid $111,000 in convertible notes to Rock Capital. The notes was dated February 23, 2016 with a principal balance of $46,316 and March 7, 2016 with a principal balance of $32,000.

Overview

 

Max Sound Corporation (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on December 9, 2005 as 43010, Inc. to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, locating and negotiating with a business entity for combination in the form of a merger, stock-for-stock exchange or stock-for-assets exchange. On October 7, 2008, pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement, Mr. Greg Halpern purchased a total of 100,000 shares of our common stock from Michael Raleigh for an aggregate of $30,000 in cash. The total of 100,000 shares represents 100% of our issued and outstanding common stock at the time of the transfer. As a result, Mr. Halpern became our sole shareholder. As part of the acquisition, and pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Michael Raleigh, our then President, CEO, CFO, and Chairman resigned from all the positions he held in the company, and Mr. Halpern was appointed as our President, CEO CFO and Chairman. The original business model was developed by Mr. Halpern in September of 2008 and began when he joined the Company on October 7, 2008. In October 2008, we became a development stage company focused on creating an Internet search engine and networking web site. 

 

From October 2008 until January 17, 2011, Mr. Halpern was our CEO, and during that time the Company was focused on developing their Internet search engine and networking web site. In January of 2010, the Company launched their Internet search engine and networking website.  In 2011, the Company decided to abandon its social networking website.  On May 11, 2010, the Company acquired the worldwide rights, title, and interest to all fields of use for MAX-D.

 

On January 17, 2011, Mr. Halpern resigned as the Company’s CEO and John Blaisure was appointed as CEO.  In February of 2011, the Company elected to change its business operations and focus primarily on developing and launching the MAX-D technology.  Our current website (www.maxsound.com) is used to showcase the MAX-D technology.  On March 8, 2011, the Company changed its name to Max Sound Corporation, and its trading symbol on the OTC Bulletin Board to MAXD.

  

MAX Sound Corporation owns the worldwide rights to all fields of use to MAX-D HD Audio, which was invented by Lloyd Trammell, a top sound designer and audio engineer who helped develop and sell the first working Surround Sound System to Hughes Aircraft.  Mr. Trammell, also developed MIDI for Korg and owns five patents in dimensional sound processing.  We believe that MAX-D is to Audio what High Definition is to Video.  MAX-D works by converting all audio files to their highest possible acoustically perfect equivalent without increasing files size or bandwidth usage.

 

On May 22, 2014, MAXD entered into a representation agreement with architect Eli Attia giving MAXD the exclusive rights to sue violators of Eli Attia’s intellectual property rights. MAXD has since filed suit against Google, Inc., Flux Factory, and various executives of these companies for misappropriation of trade secrets.

  

No later than June 20, 2014, MAXD entered into a representation agreement with VSL Communications, Inc., making MAXD the exclusive agent to VSL to enforce all rights with respect to patented technology owned and controlled by VSL. In particular, the Company announced that it had acquired a worldwide license and representation rights to a patented video and data technology “Optimized Data Transmission System and Method” which enables end-user licensees to transport 100% of data bandwidth content in only 3% of the bandwidth with the identical lossless quality. Significantly, this represents thirty three times reduction associated with transport cost and the time it takes for the video or digital content to be viewed by an end-user. As described more fully in the Legal Proceedings Section, The Company has since filed suit against Google, Inc., YouTube, LLC, and On2 Technologies, Inc., alleging willful infringement of the patent.

 

On June 20, 2015, the Company entered into a license agreement with Santok LTD of United Kingdom (“Santok). The term of the agreement is three years. Santok will pay the Company a royalty fee of $1.50 for each licensed product. Santok guarantees to the Company a minimum total of 150,000 cumulative licensed product installation with a minimum total guaranteed value of $225,000 over the three years of the agreement. If the total royalty paid is less than the guaranteed value, Santok will pay the difference.

 

On July 13, 2015, the Company entered into a license agreement with Luna Mobile, Inc. of United States (“Luna). The term of the agreement is three years. Luna will pay the Company a royalty fee of $1.50 for each licensed product manufactured and sold.

 

Plan of Operation

  

The Company believes that Max Sound HD Audio Technology is a game changer for several vertical markets whose demand will create revenue opportunities in 2016.

 

We expect our financial requirements to increase with the additional expenses needed to market and promote the MAX-D HD Audio Technology.  We plan to fund these additional expenses through financings and through loans from our stockholders and/or officers based on existing lines of credit and we are also considering various private funding opportunities until such time that our revenue stream is adequate enough to provide the necessary funds.

General and Administrative Expenses: Our general and administrative expenses were 544,524 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and $787,303 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, representing a decrease of $242,779, or approximately 31%, as a result of decrease in the general operation of the Company included added personnel, product development and marketing of our Max Sound Technology.

 

Consulting Fees:  Our consulting fees were $69,690 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and $69,837 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, representing a decrease of $147, or approximately 0.21%. The Company has decreased the use of consultants to assist the Company.

 

Professional Fees: Our professional fees were $109,920 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and $117,624 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, representing an decrease of $7,704 or approximately 7%, as a result of ongoing litigation.

 

Compensation: Our compensation expenses were $212,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and $241,300 for the three

 
 

months ended March 31, 2015, representing a decrease of $29,300, or approximately 12%, as a result of our expensing of monthly compensation to our management and employees.

 

Net Loss: Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $7,041,362. While the operational expenses in marketing our Max Sound technology decreased from the same period of last year, the overall amount of our net loss substantially increased as a result of an increase in the change in the fair value of embedded derivative liability associated with the convertible debt and the impairment of the intangible asset.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, were $0 and $0, respectively. We have an accumulated deficit of 70,336,394 for the period from December 9, 2005 (inception) to March 31, 2016, and have negative cash flow from operations of $531,507 for the three months ended March 31, 2016.  

 

Our financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of revenues from our subscriber base and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred losses from inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

From our inception through March 31, 2016, our primary source of funds has been the proceeds of private offerings of our common stock, private financing, and loans from stockholders.  Our need to obtain capital from outside investors is expected to continue until we are able to achieve profitable operations, if ever. There is no assurance that management will be successful in fulfilling all or any elements of its plans.  

 

Below is a summary of our capital-raising activities for the three months ended March 31, 2016:

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company issued convertible notes totaling $1,345,772 and $5,390,789, respectively. The Convertible notes issued for three months ended March 31, 2016 and year ended December 31, 2015, consist of the following terms:

Loans and Advances

 

We have entered into three Credit Line Agreements with Greg Halpern.  The first two were for $100,000 each and matured and expired in 2011.  The third Credit Line Agreement issued by Mr. Halpern in March 2010 is for an additional $500,000 and matured and expired in 2012.  All three agreements accrue interest at the prime rate as of the date of issuance.  The prime rate of interest is the rate of interest that major banks charge their most creditworthy customers.  For the purposes of these agreements, we shall determine the prime rate by using the prime rate reported by the Wall Street Journal on the date funds are extended to the Company.  Based on the prime rate as of the date of issuance, the prime rate shall be 3.25%. On September 26, 2013, we entered into a Credit Line Agreement with Mr. Halpern for $1,000,000 that will mature and expire on or before the second anniversary of September 26, 2015.  Interest will accrue on each advance at an annual rate of 4%. As of December 31, 2013, the Company owed $0 in principal and $0 in accrued interest related to these loans and lines of credit.  We believe that the $1,000,000 line of credit issued will not be sufficient to cover the additional expense arising from maintenance of our regulatory filings with the SEC, and the marketing of our technology over the next twelve months, thus the Company will continue to pursue additional financing and/or additional funding in 2016 to continue marketing the Max Sound HD Audio Technology aggressively to Multi-Media Industry Users of Audio and Audio with Video products. 

 

In 2015, the Company has received from Mr. Halpern additional net advances on the established lines of credit in the amount of $264,000 of which it has repaid $536,000.  As of December 31, 2015, the balance including accrued interest on the line of credit is $473.  This further demonstrates our Chairman’s ongoing commitment to continue financing the Company’s needs.  While the Company expects to have ongoing needs for additional financing, the amount of those needs are not clearly established as the Company moves forward.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the principal stockholder was repaid $536,000.  As of December 31, 2015, the line of credit balance including accrued interest totaled $473.

 

On September 17, 2015, the Company received $170,000 from a related party. Pursuant to the terms of the note, the note is bearing an original issuance discount in the amount of $10,000 and is due on or before October 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, the balance of the note is $0, and was fully repaid.

 

In the event that we are unable to obtain additional financing and/or funding or Mr. Halpern either fails to extend us more financing, declines to loan additional cash, declines to fund the line of credit, or declines to defer his salary payments, we will no longer be able to continue to operate and will have to cease operations unless we begin to generate sufficient revenue to cover our costs.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest–Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance will be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2015-03 on its balance sheets.

 

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements but not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable. 

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates:  

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition:  

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is assured. We had $0 and $0 in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Stock-Based Compensation:

In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation .  Under FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans.  As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value.  Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.  The Company applies this statement prospectively.

 

 
 

 

Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718.  FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 505,  Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees  defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments.  In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement.  If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments.

 

Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives.  In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrants, are also valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with ASC Topic 360-10-05, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."  ASC Topic 360-10-05 requires that long-lived assets, such as technology rights, be reviewed for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate.  The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including the eventual disposition.  If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of an asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset's carrying value and fair value or disposable value.  For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company completed an impairment analysis on its' long-lived assets, their technology rights, and determined that no impairment was necessary.

 

The Company believes that the accounting estimate related to asset impairment is a "critical accounting estimate" because the impairment methodology is highly susceptible to change from period to period, because it requires management to make assumptions about future cash flows, and because the impact of recognizing impairment could have a significant effect on operations. Management's assumptions about future cash flows require significant judgment because actual business operations of marketing the technology rights is in its infancy stages and managements expects that their future operating levels to fluctuate. The analysis included assumptions that are based on annual business plans and other forecasted results which are used to reflect market-based estimates of the risks associated with the projected cash flows, based on the best information available as of the date of the impairment test. There can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions used in the impairment tests will prove to be accurate predictions of the future.  If the future adversely differs from management's best estimate of key economic assumptions, and if associated future cash flows materially decrease, the Company may be required to record impairment charges related to its indefinite life intangible asset. 

 

Prior to February 2011, the Company's business operations were related to the development and launching of a social networking website.  However, since February 2011, our business focus has been on the marketing of our Max Sound HD Audio Technology.  Since 2011, was our initial year of marketing our technology, management considers past operational levels to be inconsistent with future operations mainly due to the shift in business focus.  In our impairment testing, the Company made assumptions towards the income and expenses expected in the future including, but not limited to, determining the actual expenses incurred in the current year that were attributable to the new business focus in order to develop an annual cost benchmark, trends in the marketplace, feedback from current and past marketing activities, and assessments upon the useful life of the technology rights.

 

The Company's primary focus over the next three to five years will be centered on the marketing and implementation of their technology in order to take advantage of the current trends in the marketplace for users of their technology.  In particular, the Company expects that expenses will increase significantly from year to year over the next five years, at which time in year six and beyond the year-to-year change will be a minimal increase.  In addition, the Company expects minimal revenue over the next two years, while in year three to six the Company expects to realize significant year to year increases in revenue, at which time in year seven and beyond the year to year change will be a minimal increase.

 

As part of the impairment test, the Company reviewed its' initial useful life analysis, in reference to their technology, and updated this analysis with factors that existed at the time of the impairment testing and determined that nothing had occurred in the marketplace that would change their initial determination of the useful life of their technology. The analysis included researching known technological advances in the marketplace and determining if those advances, which are similar to the Company’s products, would limit the useful life of the asset. The Company believes that the technological advances in the marketplace are geared to developing different playback devices and the implementation of technology that is similar to the Company's technology. Thus, the Company concluded that their technology rights continue to have an indefinite useful life. However, it is understood that technological advancements could happen in the future that would limit the useful life of their technology.  If a technology was created in the future that would limit the useful life of the technology, the Company would be required to update their impairment testing to include a useful life determination of the technology and may be required to record impairment charges at some time in the future.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities”.

 

 
 

  

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are subject to certain market risks, including changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates.  We have not undertaken any specific actions to limit those exposures. 

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures. Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company acknowledges this Note was issued with a 5% original issue dis-count (OID) and as such the issuance price was $105,000.00. The interest will be paid to the Holder in whose name this Note is registered on the records of the Company regarding registra-tion and transfers of this Note. The principal of, and interest on, this Note are payable at 3411 Indian Creek Drive, Suite 403, Miami Beach, FL 33140, initially, and if changed, last appearing on the records of the Company as designated in writing by the Holder hereof from time to time. The Company will pay each interest payment and the outstanding principal due upon this Note before or on the Maturity Date, less any amounts required by law to be deducted or withheld, to the Holder of this Note by check or wire transfer addressed to such Holder at the last address ap- pearing on the records of the Company. The forwarding of such check or wire transfer shall con- stitute a payment of outstanding principal hereunder and shall satisfy and discharge the liability for principal on this Note to the extent of the sum represented by such check or wire transfer. In- terest shall be payable in Common Stock (as defined below) pursuant to paragraph 4(b) herein.

 

This Note is subject to the following additional provisions:

 

GH

Initials

 
 

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

 

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

 

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

 

4.                   (a) The Holder of this Note is entitled, at its option, to convert all or any amount of the principal face amount of this Note then outstanding into shares of the Compa- ny's common stock (the " Common S tock") at a price ( "Conversion P rice") for each share of Common Stock equal to 65% of the lowest daily VWAP of the Common Stock as reported on the National Quotations Bureau OTCQB exchange which the Company’s shares are traded or any exchange upon which the Common Stock may be traded in the future (" E xchange"), for the ten prior trading days including the day upon which a Notice of Conversion is received by the Company (provided such Notice of Conversion is delivered by fax or other electronic method of communication to the Company after 4 P.M. Eastern Standard or Daylight Savings Time if the Holder wishes to include the same day closing price). If the shares have not been delivered with- in 3 business days, the Notice of Conversion may be rescinded. Such conversion shall be effec- tuated by the Company delivering the shares of Common Stock to the Holder within 3 business days of receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion. Once the Holder has received such shares of Common Stock, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company, executed by the Holder evidencing such Holder's intention to convert this Note or a specified portion hereof, and accompanied by proper assignment hereof in blank. Accrued but unpaid interest shall be subject to conversion. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share . In the event the Company experiences a DTC “Chill” on its shares, the conversion price shall be de- creased to 55 % instead of 65% while that “Chill” is in effect. In no event shall the Holder be al- lowed to effect a conversion if such conversion, along with all other shares of Company Com- mon Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates would exceed 9.9% of the out- standing shares of the Common Stock of the Company.

 
 

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

 

(c)                 This Note may not be prepaid, except that if the $110,250 Rule 144 con- vertible redeemable note issued by the Company of even date herewith is redeemed by the Com- pany within 6 months of the issuance date of such Note, all obligations of the Company under this Note and all obligations of the Holder under the Holder issued Back End Note will be auto- matically be deemed satisfied and this Note and the Holder issued Back End Note will be auto- matically be deemed cancelled and of no further force or effect.

 

(d)                Upon (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any person in a single transaction or series of related transactions, (ii) a reclassification, capital reorganization or other change or exchange of outstanding shares of the Common Stock, other than a forward or reverse stock split or stock dividend, or (iii) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another person or entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity (other than a merger which is effected solely to change the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company and results in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into shares of Common Stock) (each of items (i), (ii) and (iii) being re- ferred to as a "Sale Event"), then, in each case, the Company shall, upon request of the Holder, redeem this Note in cash for 150% of the principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest through the date of redemption, or at the election of the Holder, such Holder may convert the un- paid principal amount of this Note (together with the amount of accrued but unpaid interest) into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such Sale Event at the Conversion Price.

 

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

 

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

 
 

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

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

$50,000.00) on March 10, 2017 ("Maturity Date") and to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder at the rate of 8% per annum commencing on March 10, 2016. The interest will be paid to the Holder in whose name this Note is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of this Note. The principal of, and interest on, this Note are payable to the Holder, initially, and if changed, last appearing on the records of the Company as designated in writing by the Holder hereof from time to time. The Company will pay each inter- est payment and the outstanding principal due upon this Note before or on the Maturity Date, less any amounts required by law to be deducted or withheld, to the Holder of this Note by check or wire transfer addressed to such Holder at the last address appearing on the records of the Company. The forwarding of such check or wire transfer shall constitute a payment of outstand- ing principal hereunder and shall satisfy and discharge the liability for principal on this Note to the extent of the sum represented by such check or wire transfer. Interest shall be payable in Common Stock (as defined below) pursuant to paragraph 4(b) herein.

This Note is subject to the following additional provisions:

 
 

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

4.                   (a) The Holder of this Note is entitled, at its option, to convert all or any amount of the principal face amount of this Note then outstanding into shares of the Compa- ny's common stock (the " Common Stock ") without restrictive legend of any nature, at a price (" Conversion Price ") for each share of Common Stock equal to 65% of the average of the three

(3)    lowest daily VWAP's with a 10 day look back of the Common Stock as reported on the Na- tional Quotations Bureau OTCQB exchange which the Company’s shares are traded or any ex- change upon which the Common Stock may be traded in the future (" Exchange "), including the day upon which a Notice of Conversion is received by the Company (provided such Notice of Conversion is delivered by fax, email or other electronic method of communication to the Com- pany after 4 P.M. Eastern Standard or Daylight Savings Time if the Holder wishes to include the same day closing price). If the shares have not been delivered within 3 business days, the Notice of Conversion may be rescinded. Such conversion shall be effectuated by the Company deliver- ing the shares of Common Stock to the Holder within 3 business days of receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion. Once the Holder has received such shares of Common Stock, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company, executed by the Holder evidencing such Hold- er's intention to convert this Note or a specified portion hereof, and accompanied by proper as- signment hereof in blank. Accrued, but unpaid interest shall be subject to conversion. No frac- tional shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but the num- ber of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share .

 

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

 
 

Interest Shares shall be all or a portion of the accrued interest calculated on the unpaid principal balance of this Note to the date of such notice.

 

(c)                 During the first six months this Note is in effect, the Company at its option may redeem this Note by paying to the Holder an amount as follows: (i) if the redemption is within the first 90 days this Note is in effect, then for an amount equal to 130% of the unpaid

principal amount of this Note along with any interest that has accrued during that period, (ii) if the redemption is after the 90 th day this Note is in effect, but less than the 181 st day this Note is in effect, then for an amount equal to 140% of the unpaid principal amount of this Note along with any accrued interest. This Note may not be redeemed by the Company after 180 days. The

redemption must be closed and paid for within 3 business days of the Company sending the re- demption demand or the redemption will be invalid and the Company may not redeem this Note.

 

(d)                Upon (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any person in a single transaction or series of related transactions, (ii) a reclassification, capital reorganization or other change or exchange of outstanding shares of the Common Stock, other than a forward or reverse stock split or stock dividend, or (iii) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another person or entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity (other than a merger which is effected solely to change the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company and results in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into shares of Common Stock) (each of items (i), (ii) and (iii) being re- ferred to as a "Sale Event"), then, in each case, the Company shall, upon request of the Holder, redeem this Note in cash for 150% of the principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest through the date of redemption, or at the election of the Holder, such Holder may convert the un- paid principal amount of this Note (together with the amount of accrued but unpaid interest) into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such Sale Event at the Conversion Price.

 

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

 

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

 

6.                   The Company hereby expressly waives demand and presentment for pay- ment, notice of non-payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration

 
 

or intent to accelerate, and diligence in taking any action to collect amounts called for hereunder and shall be directly and primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and to be owing hereto.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

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

Initials

This Note is subject to the following additional provisions:

 
 

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

4.                   (a) The Holder of this Note is entitled, at its option, at any time on or after May 1, 2016 (but not before May 1, 2016, except as provided in Section 13) , to convert all or any amount of the principal face amount of this Note then outstanding into shares of the Company's common stock (the " Common Stock ") at a price (" Conversion Price ") for each share of Common Stock equal to 52% of the average of the two lowest trading prices of the Com- mon Stock as reported on the National Quotations Bureau OTCQB exchange which the Compa- ny’s shares are traded or any exchange upon which the Common Stock may be traded in the fu- ture (" Exchange ") for the twelve prior trading days including the day upon which a Notice of Conversion is received by the Company or its transfer agent (provided such Notice of Conver- sion is delivered by fax or other electronic method of communication to the Company or its transfer agent after 4 P.M. Eastern Standard or Daylight Savings Time if the Holder wishes to in- clude the same day closing price). If the shares have not been delivered within 3 business days, the Notice of Conversion may be rescinded. Such conversion shall be effectuated by the Compa- ny delivering the shares of Common Stock to the Holder within 3 business days of receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion. Accrued but unpaid interest shall be subject to conver- sion. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share . The Company agrees to honor all conversions submitted pending this increase. In the event the Company expe- riences a DTC “Chill” on its shares, the conversion price shall be decreased to 55% instead of 65% while that “Chill” is in effect. In no event shall the Holder be allowed to effect a conversion if such conversion, along with all other shares of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates would exceed 9.9% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company. If the Company is able to maintain the reserve requirements set forth in

 
 

Section 12 (1x the discounted value of the Note), then the Conversion Price shall be 62% instead of 52% at the time of each conversion in which the Company has provided the Holder sufficient shares to maintain the 3x reserve .

 

(b)                Interest on any unpaid principal balance of this Note shall be paid at the rate of 10% per annum. Interest shall be paid by the Company in Common Stock ("Interest Shares"). Holder may, at any time, send in a Notice of Conversion to the Company for Interest Shares based on the formula provided in Section 4(a) above. The dollar amount converted into Interest Shares shall be all or a portion of the accrued interest calculated on the unpaid principal balance of this Note to the date of such notice.

 

(c) This Note may not be prepaid.

 

(d)                Upon (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any person in a single transaction or series of related transactions, (ii) a reclassification, capital reorganization or other change or exchange of outstanding shares of the Common Stock, other than a forward or reverse stock split or stock dividend, or (iii) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another person or entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity (other than a merger which is effected solely to change the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company and results in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into shares of Common Stock) (each of items (i), (ii) and (iii) being re- ferred to as a "Sale Event"), then, in each case, the Company shall, upon request of the Holder, redeem this Note in cash for 150% of the principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest through the date of redemption, or at the election of the Holder, such Holder may convert the un- paid principal amount of this Note (together with the amount of accrued but unpaid interest) into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such Sale Event at the Conversion Price.

 

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

 

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

 

6. The Company hereby expressly waives demand and presentment for pay-
 
 

ment, notice of non-payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration or intent to accelerate, and diligence in taking any action to collect amounts called for hereunder and shall be directly and primarily liable for the payment of all sums owing and to be owing hereto.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(d)                  The Company shall (1) become insolvent (which does not include a “go- ing concern opinion); (2) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they mature;

(3)    make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or commence proceedings for its dissolution;

(4)    apply for or consent to the appointment of a trustee, liquidator or receiver for its or for a sub- stantial part of its property or business; (5) file a petition for bankruptcy relief, consent to the fil- ing of such petition or have filed against it an involuntary petition for bankruptcy relief, all under federal or state laws as applicable; or

 

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

 

(f)                   Any governmental agency or any court of competent jurisdiction at the in- stance of any governmental agency shall assume custody or control of the whole or any substan- tial portion of the properties or assets of the Company; or

 

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

 
 

 

(h)                  Defaulted on or breached any term of any other note of similar debt in- strument into which the Company has entered and failed to cure such default within the appro- priate grace period; or

 

(i)                    The Company shall have its Common Stock delisted from an exchange (including the OTC Markets exchange) or, if the Common Stock trades on an exchange, then trading in the Common Stock shall be suspended for more than 10 consecutive days or ceases to file its 1934 act reports with the SEC;

 

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

(m)                 The Company shall be delinquent in its periodic report filings with the Se- curities and Exchange Commission; or

 

(n)                  The Company shall cause to lose the “bid” price for its stock in a market (including the OTCQB marketplace or other exchange).

 

Then, or at any time thereafter, unless cured within 5 days, and in each and every such case, un- less such Event of Default shall have been waived in writing by the Holder (which waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent default) at the option of the Holder and in the Holder's sole discretion, the Holder may consider this Note immediately due and payable, with- out presentment, demand, protest or (further) notice of any kind (other than notice of accelera- tion), all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything herein or in any note or other instru- ments contained to the contrary notwithstanding, and the Holder may immediately, and without expiration of any period of grace, enforce any and all of the Holder's rights and remedies provid- ed herein or any other rights or remedies afforded by law. Upon an Event of Default, interest shall accrue at a default interest rate of 24% per annum or, if such rate is usurious or not permit-

ted by current law, then at the highest rate of interest permitted by law. In the event of a breach of Section 8(k) the penalty shall be $250 per day the shares are not issued beginning on the 4 th day after the conversion notice was delivered to the Company. This penalty shall increase to

$500 per day beginning on the 10 th day. The penalty for a breach of Section 8(n) shall be an in- crease of the outstanding principal amounts by 20%. In case of a breach of Section 8(i), the out-

standing principal due under this Note shall increase by 50%. If this Note is not paid at maturity, the outstanding principal due under this Note shall increase by 10%. Further, if a breach of Sec- tion 8(m) occurs or is continuing after the 6 month anniversary of the Note, then the Holder shall

 
 

be entitled to use the lowest closing bid price during the delinquency period as a base price for the conversion. For example, if the lowest closing bid price during the delinquency period is

$0.01 per share and the conversion discount is 50% the Holder may elect to convert future con- versions at $0.005 per share. If this Note is not paid at maturity, the outstanding principal due under this Note shall increase by 10%.

 

 

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

 

Make-Whole for Failure to Deliver Loss. At the Holder’s election, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the conversion shares by the by the 3rd business day following the delivery of a Notice of Conversion to the Company and if the Holder incurs a Failure to Deliver Loss, then at any time the Holder may provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Failure to Deliver Loss and the Company must make the Holder whole as follows:

Failure to Deliver Loss = [(High trade price at any time on or after the day of exercise) x (Num- ber of conversion shares)]

 

The Company must pay the Failure to Deliver Loss by cash payment, and any such cash payment must be made by the third business day from the time of the Holder’s written notice to the Com- pany.

 

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

 

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

 

11.               The Company represents that it is not a “shell” issuer and has never been a “shell” issuer or that if it previously has been a “shell” issuer that at least 12 months have passed since the Company has reported form 10 type information indicating it is no longer a “shell issu- er. The Company will instruct its counsel to either (i) write a Rule 144 or similar opinion to al- low for salability of the conversion shares or (ii) accept such opinion from Holder’s counsel, provided such legal opinion is, in the reasonable determination of Company counsel, factually and legally correct.

 

12.             The Company shall issue irrevocable transfer agent instructions reserving 50,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for conversions under this Note (the “Share Reserve”). Upon full conversion of this Note, any shares remaining in the Share Reserve shall be cancelled.

 
 

The Company shall pay all costs associated with issuing and delivering the shares. If such amounts are to be paid by the Holder, it may deduct such amounts from the Conversion Price. Conversion Notices may be sent to the Company or its transfer agent via electric mail. Begin- ning May 1, 2016, the Company will at all times reserve a minimum of one time the amount of shares required if the note would be fully converted. The Holder may reasonably request in- creases from time to time to reserve such amounts. The Company will instruct its transfer agent to provide the outstanding share information to the Holder in connection with its conversions.

 

 

13.               The Company will give the Holder direct notice of any corporate actions, including but not limited to name changes, stock splits, recapitalizations etc. This notice shall be given to the Holder as soon as possible under law. In addition, if the Company allows for the as- signment of any third party debt with a convertibility date on or prior to May 1, 2016 (an “Early Transaction”), then it shall provide the Holder immediate notice of such assignment prior to the assignment and the conversion restriction of May 1, 2016 set forth in Section 4(a) shall be elimi- nated and replaced with the earlier date which is the date on which such assigned note would be convertible into shares of Common Stock. If such notice is not provided prior to the closing of such Early Transaction, then the discount set forth in Section 4(a) shall be increased such that the effective Conversion Price results in a 48% discount .

 

14.               This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New York applicable to contracts made and wholly to be performed within the State of New York and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each party hereto. The Holder and the Company hereby mutually waive trial by jury and consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the courts of the State of New York. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and the facsimile transmission of an executed counterpart to this Agreement shall be effective as an original.

 
 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Note to be duly execut- ed by an officer thereunto duly authorized.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MAX SOUND CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the " Borrower " ), hereby promises to pay to the order of ILIAD RESEARCH AND TRADING, L.P., a Utah limited partnership, or registered assigns (the " Holder"), the sum of $143,888.89 (the "Original Principal Amounf '} together with any additional charges provided for herein, on the date that is 12 months after the Issue Date (the " Maturity Date"), and to pay interest on the Outstanding Balance (as defined below) at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum from the date hereof (the " Issue Dat e " ) until the same is paid in full; provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined below), interest shall thereafter accrue on the Outstanding Balance both before and after judgment at the rate of fourteen percent (14%) per annum ("Default luteresf '}. All interest calculations hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months, shall compound daily and shall be payable in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower acknowledges that the Original Principal Amount exceeds the purchase price of this Note and that such excess consists of the OID (as defined in the Purchase Agreement (defined below)) in the amount of

$13,888 . 89, the Carried Transaction Expense Amount (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in the amount of $5,000.00 to cover the Holder's legal and other expenses incurred in the preparation of this Note, the Purchase Agreement, the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, and all other certificates, documents, agreements, resolutions and instruments delivered to any party under or in connection with this Note, as the same may be amended from time to time (collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), which sum shall be fully earned and charged to the Borrower upon the execution of this Note and paid to the Holder as part of the outstanding principal balance as set forth in this Note. This Note may not be prepaid in whole or in part except as otherwise provided in Section 1.8. All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Borrower (the "Common Stock") in accordance with the terms hereof) shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall designate from time to time by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated the date hereof between the Borrower and the Holder, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the ''Purchase Agreement"). For purposes hereof, the term "Outstanding Balance" means the Original Principal Amount, as reduced or increased, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms hereof for conversion, breach hereof or otherwise, plus any accrued but unpaid interest (including with limitation Default Interest), collection and enforcements costs, and any other fees or charges incurred under this Note or under the Purchase Agreement.

 
 

This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of stockholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.

 

The following additional terms shall apply to this Note:

 

I. CONVERSION RIGHTS.

 

                        Conversion R ight. Subject to Section !. 7 , during the period beginning on the Issue Date and ending when the Outstanding Balance is paid or converted in full, the Holder shall, at its option, have the right from time to time, to convert all or any part of the Outstanding Balance of this Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at the Conversion Price (as defined below) determined as provided herein (a "Conversion"). The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note (the "Conversion Shares") shall be determined by dividing the Conversion Amount (as defined below) by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Notice of Conversion"), delivered to the Borrower by the Holder in accordance with Section l.4(a) below; provided that the Notice of Conversion is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion date (the "Conversion Date"). The term "Conversion Amounf' means, with respect to any conversion of this Note, the portion of the Outstanding Balance to be converted.

 

                        Conversion P rice.

 

{a) Calculation of Conversion P rice. The conversion price (as the same may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof, the "Conversion Price") shall mean 65% (the "Conversion Factor'') multiplied by the Market Price (as defined herein). "Market Pric e " means the average of the two (2) lowest Trading Prices (as defined below) for the Common Stock during the ten

(10) Trading Day (as defined below) period ending on the latest complete Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date. If an Event of Default (as defined below) other than an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.l(i) occurs, then the Conversion Factor will be reduced to 55%. If an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.l(i) occurs, then the Conversion Factor will be reduced to 40%. "Trading Price" means, for the Common Stock as of any date, the closing bid price on the Principal Market as reported by a reliable reporting service designated by the Holder (e.g. Bloomberg) or, if the Principal Market is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded or, if no closing bid price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners, the average of the closing bid prices of any market makers for such security that are quoted in "OTC Pink" by Pink OTC Markets Inc. (formerly Pink Sheets LLC), or any successor entity or other publisher thereof. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Borrower and the Holder. "Trading Day'' shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is traded or tradable for any period on the Principal Market, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.

 

{b) Conversion Price During Major A nnouncements. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section l.2 { a) to the contrary, in the event the Borrower (i) makes a public announcement that it intends to consolidate or merge with any other corporation (other than a merger in which the Borrower is the surviving or continuing corporation and its capital stock is unchanged) or sell or transfer all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower or (ii) any person, group or entity

 
 

(including the Borrower) publicly announces a tender offer to purchase 50% or more of the Borrower's Common Stock (or any other takeover scheme) (the date of the announcement referred to in clause (i) or

(ii) is hereinafter referred to as the " Annonncement Dat e " ), then the Conversion Price shall, effective upon the Announcement Date and continuing through the Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date (as defined below), be equal to the lower of (I) the Conversion Price which would have been applicable for a Conversion occurring on the Announcement Date, and (2) the Conversion Price that would otherwise be in effect. From and after the Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date, the Conversion Price shall be determined as set forth in this Section l.2(b). For purposes hereof, " Adjusted Conversion Price Termination Date" shall mean, with respect to any proposed transaction or tender offer (or takeover scheme) for which a public announcement as contemplated by this Section l.2(b) has been made, the date upon which the Borrower (in the case of clause (i) above) or the person, group or entity (in the case of clause (ii) above) consummates or publicly announces the termination or abandonment of the proposed transaction or tender offer (or takeover scheme) which caused this Section l. 2(b) to become operative.

 

                        Authorized S hares. The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. The Borrower is required at all times to have authorized and reserved three times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion of this Note (based on the Conversion Price in effect from time to time) (the "Reserved Amount''). The Reserved Amount shall be increased from time to time as required to insure compliance with this Section 1.3. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non- assessable. In addition, if the Borrower shall issue any securities or make any change to its capital structure which would change the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note shall be convertible at the then current Conversion Price, the Borrower shall at the same time make proper provision so that thereafter there shall be a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, for conversion of this Note. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to issue shares of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, and (ii) agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers and agents who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note. If, at any time the Borrower does not maintain the Reserved Amount it will be considered an Event of Default under Section 3.l(c).

 

                       Method of C onversion.

 

(a)                Mechanics of C onversion. Subject to Section 1.7 hereof, beginning on the date specified in Section I .I, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by submitting to the Borrower a Notice of Conversion (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time), otherwise the Conversion Date will be the next Trading Day.

 

(b)                Surrender of Note Upon C onversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire Outstanding Balance of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the amount of the Outstanding Balance so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Holder shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid, the Holder may not

 
 

transfer this Note unless the Holder first physically surrenders this Note to the Borrower, whereupon the Borrower will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Holder may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining Outstanding Balance of this Note. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted Outstanding Balance of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

(c)                Payment of T axes. Borrower is responsible for the payment of all charges, fees, and taxes required to deliver Conversion Shares to Holder; provider, however, that Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Conversion Shares or other securities or property on conversion of this Note in a name other than that of the Holder (or in street name), and the Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares or other securities or property unless and until the person or persons (other than the Holder or the custodian in whose street name such shares are to be held for the Holder's account) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Borrower the amount of any such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Borrower that such tax has been paid.

 

(d)                Delivery of Common Stock Upon C onversion. On or before the close of business on the third (3' d) Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Notice of Conversion from the Holder via facsimile transmission or e-mail (or other reasonable means of communication) (the "Delivery Date"), the Borrower shall, provided that all DWAC Eligible Conditions (as defined below) are then satisfied, credit the aggregate number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled to the account specified on the Conversion Notice via the DWAC (as defined below) system. If all DWAC Eligible Conditions are not then satisfied, the Borrower shall instead issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered (via reputable overnight courier) to the address as specified in the Notice of Conversion, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled; provided, however, that, in addition to any other rights or remedies that the Holder may have under this Note, then the Non-DWAC Eligible Adjustment Amount (as defined below) shall be added to the Outstanding Balance of this Note as set forth in Section 1.6(f) below. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower has not met its obligation to deliver Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date unless the Holder or its broker, as applicable, has actually received the shares electronically into the applicable account, or if the DWAC Eligible Conditions are not then satisfied, has actually received the certificate representing the applicable Conversion Shares no later than the close of business on the relevant Delivery Date pursuant to the terms set forth above. For purposes hereof, the term "DWAC Eligible Conditions" means that (i) the Common Stock is eligible at DTC (as defined below) for full services pursuant to DTC's operational arrangements, including without limitation transfer through DTC's DWAC system, (ii) the Borrower has been approved (without revocation) by the DTC's underwriting department, (iii) the Borrower's transfer agent is approved as an agent in the DTC/FAST Program (as defined below), (iv) the Conversion Shares are otherwise eligible for delivery via DWAC, and (v) the Borrower's transfer agent does not have a policy prohibiting or limiting delivery of the Conversion Shares via DWAC. For purposes of this Note, the term "DWAC" means Deposit Withdrawal at Custodian as defined by the DTC; the term "DTC" means the Depository Trust Company; and the term "DTC/FAST Program" means the DTC's Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program.

 

(e)                 Obligation of Borrower to Deliver Common S tock. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower's obligation to issue and deliver the shares of Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim,

 
 

recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion. The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is delivered to the Borrower before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date; otherwise, the Conversion Date shall be the next Trading Day. Once the Holder may freely trade the Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note pursuant to and in accordance with the terms hereof (and in the case of any certificates delivered to Holder because not all of the DWAC Eligible Conditions are then satisfied, once such certificates have been deposited into Holder's brokerage account, all legends have been removed therefrom, and the Common Stock represented by such certificates is freely tradeable), all rights with respect to the portion of the Outstanding Balance being so converted shall forthwith terminate; provided, however, that the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion as of the date Borrower receives the corresponding Notice of Conversion.

 

(f) Delivery of Common Stock via the DWAC System. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, failure to deliver via the DWAC system any Common Stock to be delivered to the Holder under this Section 1.4 shall constitute a breach of this Agreement and an Event of Default under Section 3 hereof, including without limitation under Sections 3.l(c) and 3.l(p).

 

(g) Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Delivery D ate. Without in any way limiting the Holder's right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is not delivered as required by Section 1.4(d) by the Delivery Date (a "Conversion Default"), the Borrower shall pay in cash to the Holder for each calendar day beyond the Delivery Date that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock an amount equal to $500 per day (the "Conversion Default Payment''). Such cash amount shall be paid to the Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued (the "Conversion Default Payment Due Date"). In the event such cash amount is not received by the Holder by the Conversion Default Payment Due Date, at the option of the Holder (without notice to the Borrower), the Conversion Default Payment shall be added to the Outstanding Balance of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note. The Borrower agrees that the right to convert is a valuable right to the Holder. The damages resulting from a failure, attempt to frustrate, or interference with such conversion right are difficult if not impossible to quantify. Accordingly the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provisions contained in this Section l.4(g) are justified.

 

                       Concerning the S hares. Transfer of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is restricted and certificates representing such shares may bear a legend as set forth in Sections 4.14 of the Purchase Agreement.

 

Effect of Certain E vents.

 

(a)                 Fundamental Transaction Consent R ight. The Borrower shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction (as defined below), unless the Borrower obtains the prior written consent of the Holder to enter into such Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of this Note, "Fundamental Transaction" means that (i) any "person" or "group" (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) is or shall become the "beneficial owner'' (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by issued and outstanding voting stock of the Borrower, or (ii) (!) the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions, consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not the

 
 

Borrower or any of its subsidiaries is the surviving corporation) any other individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization (collectively, "Person"), or (2) the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions, sell, lease, license, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its respective properties or assets to any other Person, or (3) the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions, allow any other Person to make a purchase, tender or exchange offer that is accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of voting stock of the Borrower (not including any shares of voting stock of the Borrower held by the Person or Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the Persons making or party to, such purchase, tender or exchange offer), or (4) the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions, consummate a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with any other Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of voting stock of the Borrower (not including any shares of voting stock of the Borrower held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination), or (5) the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions, reorganize, recapitalize or reclassify the Common Stock, other than an increase in the number of authorized shares of the Borrower's Common Stock. The provisions of this Section l.6(a) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note. As a condition to pre-approving any Fundamental Transaction in writing, which approval may be withheld in the Holder's sole discretion, Holder may require the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) to assume by written instrument all of the obligations of the Borrower under this Note and all the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such successor or acquirer had been named as the Borrower hereto and thereto.

 

(b)                Ad justment Due to Fundamental T ransactions. I f , at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion of all of this Note, there shall be any Fundamental Transaction that is pre-approved in writing by the Holder pursuant to Section 1.6(a) above, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Borrower shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Borrower or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Borrower, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of this Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof. The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive Fundamental Transactions.

 

(c)                Ad justment Due to D istribution. If the Borrower shall declare or make any distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock as a dividend, stock repurchase, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including any dividend or distribution to the Borrower's stockholders in cash or shares (or rights to acquire shares) of capital stock of a subsidiary (i.e., a spin-off)) (a ''Distribution"), then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled, upon any conversion of this Note after the date of record for determining stockholders entitled to such Distribution, to receive the amount of such assets which would have been payable to the Holder with respect to the shares of

 
 

Common Stock issuable upon such conversion had such Holder been the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to such Distribution.

 

(d)                Ad justment Due to Dilutive I ssuance. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding, the Borrower issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 1.6(d) hereof is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for no consideration or for a consideration per share (before deduction of reasonable expenses or commissions underwriting discounts or allowances in connection therewith) less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of such issuance (or deemed issuance) of such shares of Common Stock (a "Dilutive Issuance"), then immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Price will be reduced to the amount of the consideration per share received by the Borrower in such Dilutive Issuance.

 

The Borrower shall be deemed to have issued or sold shares of Common Stock if the Borrower in any manner issues or grants any warrants, rights or options (not including employee stock option plans), whether or not immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Common Stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock ("Convertible Securities") (such warrants, rights and options to purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities are hereinafter referred to as "Options") and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, then the Conversion Price shall be equal to such price per share. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of such Options" is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Borrower as consideration for the issuance or granting of all such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Borrower upon the exercise of all such Options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of all such Options (assuming full conversion of Convertible Securities, if applicable). No further adjustment to the Conversion Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Options.

 

Additionally, the Borrower shall be deemed to have issued or sold shares of Common Stock if the Borrower in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately convertible, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, then the Conversion Price shall be equal to such price per share. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the "price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange" is determined by dividing (1) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Borrower as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Borrower upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (2) the maximum total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment to the Conversion Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

 

(e)                Purchase R ights. lf, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding, the Borrower issues any convertible securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property (the ''Purchase Rights") pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock, then the Holder of this Note will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder could have acquired if such Holder had held the number of

 
 

shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion contained herein) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

 

(f)                 Ad justment Due to Non-DWAC E ligibility. I f , at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding, the Holder delivers a Notice of Conversion and at such time all DWAC Eligible Conditions are not then satisfied, the Borrower shall deliver certificated Conversion Shares to the Holder pursuant to Section 1.4(d) and the Non-OWAC Eligible Adjustment Amount shall be added to the Outstanding Balance of this Note, without limiting any other rights of the Holder under this Note or the other Transaction Documents. The "Non-DWAC Eligible Adjustment Amount" is the amount equal to the number of applicable Conversion Shares multiplied by the excess, if any, of (i) the Trading Price of the Common Stock on the Conversion Date, over (ii) the Trading Price of the Common Stock on the date the certificated Conversion Shares are freely tradable, clear of any restrictive legend and deposited in the Holder's brokerage account. In any such case, Holder will use reasonable efforts to timely deposit such certificates in its brokerage account after it receives them and cause such restrictive legends to be removed, and, without limiting any other provision hereof, Borrower agrees to fully cooperate with Holder in accomplishing the same.

 

(g)                A d justment Due to Late Clearing of DWAC Eligible Shares. I f , at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding, the Holder delivers a Notice of Conversion and at such time the Common Stock is DWAC Eligible and the applicable DWAC Eligible Conversion Shares are delivered to Holder or its broker, but it takes longer than five (5) business days after such delivery for such Conversion Shares to be electronically cleared for trading in Holder's brokerage account, then the Late Clearing Adjustment Amount (as defined below) shall be added to the Outstanding Balance of this Note, without limiting any other rights of the Holder under this Note or the other Transaction Documents. The "Late Clearing Adjustment Amount" is the amount equal to the number of applicable Conversion Shares multiplied by the excess, if any, of (1) the Trading Price of the Common Stock on the Conversion Date, over (2) the Trading Price of the Common Stock on the date the certificated DWAC Eligible Conversion Shares are electronically cleared for trading in the Holder's brokerage account. In any such case, and without limiting any other provision hereof, each of Holder and the Borrower agrees to take all action reasonably necessary on its part to help ensure that the applicable Conversion Shares are electronically cleared for trading in the Holder's brokerage account within the five-day period described above.

 

(h)                Notice of Ad j ustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price or the addition of the Non-OWAC Eligible Adjustment Amount or Late Clearing Adjustment Amount to the Outstanding Balance as a result of the events described in this Section 1.6, the Borrower, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment and prepare and furnish to the Holder 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 Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (i i ) the Conversion Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon conversion of this Note.

 

(i)                  Ad justments for Stock S plit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any references to share numbers or share prices shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction.

 
 

                       Ownership L imitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Transaction Documents, if at any time the Holder shall or would be issued shares of Common Stock under any of the Transaction Documents, but such issuance would cause the Holder (together with its Affiliates) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such issuance) (the "Maximum Percentage"), then the Company must not issue to the Holder shares of the Common Stock which would exceed the Maximum Percentage. For purposes of this Section, beneficial ownership of Common Stock will be determined under the 1934 Act. The shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder that would cause the Maximum Percentage to be exceeded are referred to herein as the "Ownership Limitation Shares". The Company will reserve the Ownership Limitation Shares for the exclusive benefit of the Holder. From time to time, the Holder may notify the Company in writing of the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares that may be issued to the Holder without causing the Holder to exceed the Maximum Percentage. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company shall be unconditionally obligated to immediately issue such designated shares to the Holder, with a corresponding reduction in the number of the Ownership Limitation Shares. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the term "4.99%" above shall be replaced with "9.99%" at such time as the Market Capitalization of the Common Stock is less than $5,000,000.00. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, if the term "4.99%" is replaced with "9.99%" pursuant to the preceding sentence, such increase to "9.99%" shall remain at 9.99% until increased, decreased or waived by the Holder as set forth below. For purposes of this Note, the term "Market Capitalization of the Common Stock" shall mean the product equal to (A) the average VWAP of the Common Stock for the immediately preceding fifteen

(15) Trading Days, multiplied by (B) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reported ou the Company's most recently filed Form 10-Q or Form 10-K. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may increase, decrease or waive the Maximum Percentage as to itself but any such waiver will not be effective until the 6lst day after delivery thereof. The foregoing 61-day notice requirement is enforceable, unconditional and non-waivable and shall apply to all Affiliates and assigns of the Holder.

 

                        P repayment. So long as the Borrower has not received a Notice of Conversion from the Holder, then at any time during the period beginning on the Issue Date and ending on the date which is one hundred eighty (180) calendar days following the Issue Date, the Borrower shall have the right, exercisable on not less than thirty (30) Trading Days prior written notice to the Holder to prepay the Outstanding Balance of this Note, in full, in accordance with this Section 1.8. Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an "Optional Prepayment Notice") shall be delivered to the Holder at its registered addresses and shall state: (a) that the Borrower is exercising its right to prepay this Note, and (b) the date of prepayment, which shall be not more than three (3) Trading Days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice. On the date fixed for prepayment (the "Optional Prepayment Date"), the Borrower shall make payment of the Optional Prepayment Amount (as defined below) to or upon the order of the Holder as specified by the Holder in writing to the Borrower at least one (1) Trading Day prior to the Optional Prepayment Date. If the Borrower exercises its right to prepay this Note, the Borrower shall make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash (the "Optional Prepayment Amonnf ' ) equal to 1 15%, multiplied by the then Outstanding Balance of this Note. If the Borrower delivers an Optional Prepayment Notice and fails to pay the Optional Prepayment Amount due to the Holder within two (2) Trading Days following the Optional Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall forever forfeit its right to prepay this Note pursuant to this Section 1. 8.

10% CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE NOTE DUE NOVEMBER 23, 2016

 

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Max Sound Corporation (the “Company”) promises to pay to the order of ROCK CAPITAL, LLC and its authorized successors and permitted assigns (" Hold- er "), the aggregate principal face amount of Thirty Six Thousand Eight Hundred Sixty Four dol- lars 58/100 cents exactly (U.S. $36,864.58) on November 23, 2016 (" Maturity Date ") and to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder at the rate of 10% per annum commenc- ing on February 23, 2016. The interest will be paid to the Holder in whose name this Note is reg- istered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfers of this Note. The principal of, and interest on, this Note are payable at 3820 East Mercer Way, Mercer Island WA 98040, initially, and if changed, last appearing on the records of the Company as designated in writing by the Holder hereof from time to time. The Company will pay each interest payment and the outstanding principal due upon this Note before or on the Maturity Date, less any amounts required by law to be deducted or withheld, to the Holder of this Note by check or wire transfer addressed to such Holder at the last address appearing on the records of the Company. The forwarding of such check or wire transfer shall constitute a payment of outstanding principal hereunder and shall satisfy and discharge the liability for principal on this Note to the extent of the sum represented by such check or wire transfer. Interest shall be payable in Common Stock (as defined below) pursuant to paragraph 4(b) herein.

 

This Note is subject to the following additional provisions:

 

GH

Initials

 
 

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

4.                   (a) The Holder of this Note is entitled, at its option, at any time on or after March 14, 2016, to convert all or any amount of the principal face amount of this Note then outstanding into shares of the Company's common stock (the " Common Stock ") at a price (" Conversion Price ") for each share of Common Stock equal to 65% of the average of the two lowest trading prices of the Common Stock as reported on the National Quotations Bureau OTCQB exchange which the Company’s shares are traded or any exchange upon which the Common Stock may be traded in the future (" Exchange ") for the twelve prior trading days in- cluding the day upon which a Notice of Conversion is received by the Company or its transfer agent (provided such Notice of Conversion is delivered by fax or other electronic method of communication to the Company or its transfer agent after 4 P.M. Eastern Standard or Daylight Savings Time if the Holder wishes to include the same day closing price). If the shares have not been delivered within 3 business days, the Notice of Conversion may be rescinded. Such conver- sion shall be effectuated by the Company delivering the shares of Common Stock to the Holder within 3 business days of receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion. Accrued but un- paid interest shall be subject to conversion. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share . The Company agrees to honor all conversions submitted pending this in- crease. In the event the Company experiences a DTC “Chill” on its shares, the conversion price shall be decreased to 55% instead of 65% while that “Chill” is in effect. In no event shall the Holder be allowed to effect a conversion if such conversion, along with all other shares of Com- pany Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates would exceed 9.9% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company.

 

(b)                Interest on any unpaid principal balance of this Note shall be paid at the

 
 

rate of 10% per annum. Interest shall be paid by the Company in Common Stock ("Interest Shares"). Holder may, at any time, send in a Notice of Conversion to the Company for Interest Shares based on the formula provided in Section 4(a) above. The dollar amount converted into Interest Shares shall be all or a portion of the accrued interest calculated on the unpaid principal balance of this Note to the date of such notice.

 

(c) This note may not be prepaid.

 

(d)                Upon (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any person in a single transaction or series of related transactions, (ii) a reclassification, capital reorganization or other change or exchange of outstanding shares of the Common Stock, other than a forward or reverse stock split or stock dividend, or (iii) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another person or entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity (other than a merger which is effected solely to change the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company and results in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into shares of Common Stock) (each of items (i), (ii) and (iii) being re- ferred to as a "Sale Event"), then, in each case, the Company shall, upon request of the Holder, redeem this Note in cash for 150% of the principal amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest through the date of redemption, or at the election of the Holder, such Holder may convert the un- paid principal amount of this Note (together with the amount of accrued but unpaid interest) into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such Sale Event at the Conversion Price.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

7. The Company agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable
 
 

attorneys' fees and expenses, which may be incurred by the Holder in collecting any amount due under this Note.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(d)                The Company shall (1) become insolvent (which does not include a “go- ing concern opinion); (2) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they mature;

(3)    make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or commence proceedings for its dissolution;

(4)    apply for or consent to the appointment of a trustee, liquidator or receiver for its or for a sub- stantial part of its property or business; (5) file a petition for bankruptcy relief, consent to the fil- ing of such petition or have filed against it an involuntary petition for bankruptcy relief, all under federal or state laws as applicable; or

 

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

 

(f)                 Any governmental agency or any court of competent jurisdiction at the in- stance of any governmental agency shall assume custody or control of the whole or any substan- tial portion of the properties or assets of the Company; or

 

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

 

(h)                Defaulted on or breached any term of any other note of similar debt in- strument into which the Company has entered and failed to cure such default within the appro- priate grace period; or

 

(i)                  The Company shall have its Common Stock delisted from an exchange (including the OTC Markets exchange) or, if the Common Stock trades on an exchange, then

 
 

trading in the Common Stock shall be suspended for more than 10 consecutive days or ceases to file its 1934 act reports with the SEC;

 

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

 

(k)                The Company shall not deliver to the Holder the Common Stock pursuant to paragraph 4 herein without restrictive legend within 3 business days of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion which includes an Opinion of Counsel expressing an opinion which supports the removal of a restrictive legend; or

 

(l)                  The Company shall not replenish the reserve set forth in Section 12, with- in 3 business days of the request of the Holder.

 

(m)              The Company shall be delinquent in its periodic report filings with the Se- curities and Exchange Commission; or

 

(n)                The Company shall cause to lose the “bid” price for its stock in a market (including the OTCQB marketplace or other exchange).

 

Then, or at any time thereafter, unless cured within 5 days, and in each and every such case, un- less such Event of Default shall have been waived in writing by the Holder (which waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent default) at the option of the Holder and in the Holder's sole discretion, the Holder may consider this Note immediately due and payable, with- out presentment, demand, protest or (further) notice of any kind (other than notice of accelera- tion), all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything herein or in any note or other instru- ments contained to the contrary notwithstanding, and the Holder may immediately, and without expiration of any period of grace, enforce any and all of the Holder's rights and remedies provid- ed herein or any other rights or remedies afforded by law. Upon an Event of Default, interest shall accrue at a default interest rate of 24% per annum or, if such rate is usurious or not permit- ted by current law, then at the highest rate of interest permitted by law. In the event of a breach

of Section 8(k) the penalty shall be $250 per day the shares are not issued beginning on the 4 th day after the conversion notice was delivered to the Company. This penalty shall increase to

$500 per day beginning on the 10 th day. The penalty for a breach of Section 8(n) shall be an in- crease of the outstanding principal amounts by 20%. In case of a breach of Section 8(i), the out- standing principal due under this Note shall increase by 50%. If this Note is not paid at maturity, the outstanding principal due under this Note shall increase by 10%. Further, if a breach of Sec-

tion 8(m) occurs or is continuing after the 6 month anniversary of the Note, then the Holder shall be entitled to use the lowest closing bid price during the delinquency period as a base price for the conversion. For example, if the lowest closing bid price during the delinquency period is

$0.01 per share and the conversion discount is 50% the Holder may elect to convert future con- versions at $0.005 per share. If this Note is not paid at maturity, the outstanding principal due under this Note shall increase by 10%.

 

 

If the Holder shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Note, in-

 
 

cluding, without limitation, engaging an attorney, then if the Holder prevails in such action, the Holder shall be reimbursed by the Company for its attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

 

Make-Whole for Failure to Deliver Loss. At the Holder’s election, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the conversion shares by the by the 3rd business day following the delivery of a Notice of Conversion to the Company and if the Holder incurs a Failure to Deliver Loss, then at any time the Holder may provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Failure to Deliver Loss and the Company must make the Holder whole as follows:

Failure to Deliver Loss = [(High trade price at any time on or after the day of exercise) x (Num- ber of conversion shares)]

 

The Company must pay the Failure to Deliver Loss by cash payment, and any such cash payment must be made by the third business day from the time of the Holder’s written notice to the Com- pany.

 

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

 

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

 

11.               The Company represents that it is not a “shell” issuer and has never been a “shell” issuer or that if it previously has been a “shell” issuer that at least 12 months have passed since the Company has reported form 10 type information indicating it is no longer a “shell issu- er. The Company will instruct its counsel to either (i) write a Rule 144 or similar opinion to al- low for salability of the conversion shares or (ii) accept such opinion from Holder’s counsel, provided such legal opinion is, in the reasonable determination of Company counsel, factually and legally correct.

 

12.             The Company shall issue irrevocable transfer agent instructions reserving 78,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for conversions under this Note and a $46,316.00 note of even date herewith (the “Share Reserve”). Upon full conversion of this Note, any shares re- maining in the Share Reserve shall be cancelled. The Company shall pay all costs associated with issuing and delivering the shares. If such amounts are to be paid by the Holder, it may de- duct such amounts from the Conversion Price. Conversion Notices may be sent to the Company or its transfer agent via electric mail. The company should at all times reserve a minimum of three times the amount of shares required if the note would be fully converted. The Holder may reasonably request increases from time to time to reserve such amounts. The Company will in- struct its transfer agent to provide the outstanding share information to the Holder in connection with its conversions.

 
 

 

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

 

14.               This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New York applicable to contracts made and wholly to be performed within the State of New York and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each party hereto. The Holder and the Company hereby mutually waive trial by jury and consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the courts of the State of New York. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and the facsimile transmission of an executed counterpart to this Agreement shall be effective as an original.

 
 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Note to be duly execut- ed by an officer thereunto duly authorized.

GH

Initials

1.                   This Note is exchangeable for an equal aggregate principal amount of

 
 

Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for such registration or transfer or exchange, except that Holder shall pay any tax or other governmental charges payable in connection therewith.

 

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

 

3.                   This Note may be transferred or exchanged only in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (" Act ") and applicable state securities laws.

Prior to due present- ment for transfer of this Note, the Company and any agent of the Company may treat the person in whose name this Note is duly registered on the Company's records as the owner hereof for all other purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company nor any such agent shall be affected or bound by notice to the contrary. Any Holder of this Note electing to exercise the right of conversion set forth in Section 4(a) hereof, in addition to the requirements set forth in Section 4(a), and any prospective transferee of this Note, also is required to give the Company written confirmation that this Note is being converted (" Notice of Conversion ") in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A . The date of receipt (including receipt by telecopy) of such Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date.

Eastern Standard or Daylight Savings Time if the Holder wishes to in- clude the same day closing price).

(c)                 This Note may not be prepaid, except that if the $46,316 Rule 144 con- vertible redeemable note issued by the Company of even date herewith is redeemed by the Com- pany within 6 months of the issuance date of such Note, all obligations of the Company under this Note and all obligations of the Holder under the Holder issued Back End Note will be auto- matically be deemed satisfied and this Note and the Holder issued Back End Note will be auto- matically be deemed cancelled and of no further force or effect.

(e)                 In case of any Sale Event (not to include a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets) in connection with which this Note is not redeemed or converted, the Company shall cause effective provision to be made so that the Holder of this Note shall have the right thereafter, by converting this Note, to purchase or convert this Note into the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization or other change, consolidation or merger by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock that could have been purchased upon exercise of the Note and at the same Conversion Price, as defined in this Note, immediately prior to such Sale Event.

Failure to Deliver Loss = [(High trade price at any time on or after the day of exercise) x (Num- ber of conversion shares)]

 

The Company must pay the Failure to Deliver Loss by cash payment, and any such cash payment must be made by the third business day from the time of the Holder’s written notice to the Com- pany.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

12.             Prior to cash funding of this Note, The Company will issue irrevocable transfer agent instructions reserving 3x the number of shares of Common Stock necessary to al- low the holder to convert this note based on the discounted conversion price set forth in Section 4(a) herewith. The reserve shall be replenished as needed to allow for conversions of this Note

 
 

using said 3x reserve. Upon full conversion of this Note, the reserve representing this Note shall be cancelled. The Company will pay all transfer agent costs associated with issuing and deliver- ing the shares. If such amounts are to be paid by the Holder, it may deduct such amounts from the Conversion Price. Conversion Notices may be sent to the Company or its transfer agent via electric mail.

 

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

 

14.               This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New York applicable to contracts made and wholly to be performed within the State of New York and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each party hereto. The Holder and the Company hereby mutually waive trial by jury and consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the courts of the State of New York. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and the facsimile transmission of an executed counterpart to this Agreement shall be effective as an original.

 
 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Note to be duly execut- ed by an officer thereunto duly authorized.
