PROMISSORY NOTE
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, AUTO PARTS
4LESS GROUP, INC., a Nevada corporation (hereinafter called the “Borrower”) (Trading Symbol: FLES), hereby promises to
pay to the order of CAVALRY FUND I, LP,, a Delaware limited partnership, or registered assigns (the “Holder”) the
sum of US$39,111 (the “Principal”) together with guaranteed interest (the “Interest”) on the Principal balance
hereof in the amount of twelve percent (12%) (the “Interest Rate”) per calendar year from the date hereof (the “Issue
Date”). All Principal and Interest owing hereunder, along with any and all other amounts, shall be due and owing on October 31st,
2024 (the “Maturity Date”). Interest shall accrue hereunder and shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date, upon the consummation
of the Borrower’s uplist or next capital raise, or upon acceleration or by prepayment or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the final payment of Principal and Interest shall be due on the Maturity Date. This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part as set forth
herein. Any amount of Principal or Interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of the lesser of
(i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) the maximum amount permitted under law from the due date thereof until the same is paid
(the “Default Interest”). Default Interest shall commence accruing upon an Event of Default and shall be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock,
$0.0001 par value per share (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 hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice
made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any
day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the case of
any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be
taken into account for purposes of
determining the amount of interest due on such date.
As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial
banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed. 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, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the “Purchase Agreement”).
This Note carries an original
issue discount of $3,911.12 (the “OID”), to cover the Holder’s monitoring costs associated with the purchase and sale
of the Note, which is included in the principal balance of this Note. Thus, the purchase price of this Note shall be $35,200.08 computed
as follows: the Principal Amount minus the OID.
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 shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.
The following terms shall also
apply to this Note:
ARTICLE I. CONVERSION RIGHTS UPON EVENT
OF DEFAULT
1.1 Conversion Right. The
Holder shall have the right beginning on the date that is 180 days from the date hereof, from time to time following an Event of Default,
and ending on the date of payment of the Default Amount (as defined in Article III) pursuant to Section 1.6(a) or Article III, each in
respect of the remaining outstanding principal amount of this Note to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal,
interest, penalties, and all other amounts under 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”); provided,
however, that in no event shall the Holder be entitled to convert any portion of this Note in excess of that portion of this Note
upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other
than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Notes or the
unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to
the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of this Note
with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates
of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (“Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). For purposes of the proviso
to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (1)
of such proviso. The Holder, upon notice to the Borrower, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this
Section 1.1, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding
immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note held by the Holder and the provisions
- 2 -
of this Section 1.1 shall continue to apply. Any such
increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Borrower. The number of shares of
Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note 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 or Borrower’s transfer agent by the Holder in accordance with
Section 1.4 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 or Borrower’s transfer agent before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time on such conversion
date (the “Conversion Date”). The term “Conversion Amount” means, with respect to any conversion of this Note,
the sum of (1) the principal amount of this Note to be converted in such conversion plus (2) at the Holder’s option, accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, on such principal amount at the interest rates provided in this Note to the Conversion Date, provided however,
that the Borrower shall have the right to pay any or all interest in cash plus (3) at the Holder’s option, Default Interest,
if any, on the amounts referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (1) and/or (2) plus (4) at the Holder’s option, any
amounts owed to the Holder pursuant to Sections 1.3 and 1.4(g) hereof.
1.2 Conversion Price.
(a)
Calculation of Conversion Price. Subject to the adjustments described herein, the conversion price (the “Conversion
Price”) shall equal $0.01 per share. If the shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock have not been delivered within three (3)
business days to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent, the Notice of Conversion may be rescinded. “Trading Day”
shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTC Pink, OTCQB or on the principal securities exchange
or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded. The Borrower shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer
agent and all DTC fees associated with any such issuance. Holder shall be entitled to deduct $500.00 from the conversion amount in each
Notice of Conversion to cover Holder’s deposit fees associated with each Notice of Conversion.
While this Note is outstanding,
each time any 3rd party has the right to convert monies owed to that 3rd party (or receive shares pursuant to a
settlement or otherwise), including but not limited to under Section 3(a)(9) and Section 3(a)(10), at a discount to market greater than
the Conversion Price in effect at that time (prior to all other applicable adjustments in the Note), but excluding any 3rd
party loans that are already outstanding on the Issue Date, then the Holder, in Holder’s sole discretion, may utilize such greater
discount percentage (prior to all applicable adjustments in this Note) until this Note is no longer outstanding. While this Note is outstanding,
each time any 3rd party has a look back period greater than the look back period in effect under the Note at that time, including
but not limited to under Section 3(a)(9) and Section 3(a)(10), excluding any 3rd party loans that are already outstanding on
the Issue Date, then the Holder, in Holder’s sole discretion, may utilize such greater number of look back days until this Note
is no longer outstanding. The Borrower shall give written notice to the Holder within one (1) business day of becoming aware of any event
that could permit the Holder to make any adjustment described in the two immediately preceding sentences.
- 3 -
(b)
Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder
in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Borrower shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute
and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 4.13.
(c)
If at any time the Conversion Price as determined hereunder for any conversion would be less than the par value of the Common Stock,
then the Conversion Price hereunder shall equal such par value for such conversion and the Conversion Amount for such conversion shall
be increased to include Additional Principal, where “Additional Principal” means such additional amount to be added to the
Conversion Amount to the extent necessary to cause the number of conversion shares issuable upon such conversion to equal the same number
of conversion shares as would have been issued had the Conversion Price not been subject to the minimum price set forth in this Section
1.2(c).
1.3 Authorized Shares. The
Borrower covenants that during the period while any outstanding balance is owing hereunder or any conversion of the Note is available,
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 issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower
is required at all times to have authorized and reserved at least five (5) times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full
conversion of the Note (based on the Conversion Price of the Notes in effect from time to time) (the “Reserved Amount”). The
Reserved Amount shall be increased from time to time in accordance with the Borrower’s obligations pursuant to Section 3(d) of the
Purchase Agreement. 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 the Notes 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 the outstanding Notes. The Borrower (i) acknowledges that it has irrevocably instructed its transfer agent to
issue certificates for 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 executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary
certificates for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no
event shall the Reserved Amount be lower than the initial Reserved Amount, regardless of any prior conversions.
If, at any time the Borrower does
not maintain or replenish the Reserved Amount as required hereunder within three (3) business days of the request of the Holder, the principal
amount of the Note shall increase by Five Thousand and No/100 United States Dollars ($5,000) (under Holder’s and Borrower’s
expectation that any principal amount increase will tack back to the Issue Date) per occurrence.
1.4 Method of Conversion.
- 4 -
(a)
Mechanics of Conversion. Subject to Section 1.1, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time
from time to time after an Event of Default, by (A) submitting to the Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent a Notice of Conversion
(by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 11:59 p.m., New York, New
York time) and (B) subject to Section 1.4(b), surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Borrower.
(b)
Surrender of Note Upon Conversion. 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
unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount
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 Borrower 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 (upon payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the
remaining unpaid principal amount 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 principal amount
of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
(c)
Payment of Taxes. The 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 shares of Common Stock 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 Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission or e-mail
(or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section
1.4, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder certificates for the
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (the “Deadline”) (and, solely
in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) in accordance with the terms hereof and
the Purchase Agreement.
(e)
Obligation of Borrower to Deliver Common Stock. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall
be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount
- 5 -
of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall
be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations under this Article I, all rights with respect
to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities,
cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein,
the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for 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 received by the Borrower before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.
(f)
Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities
Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in Section 1.1 and
in this Section 1.4, the Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit
the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit
Withdrawal At Custodian (“DWAC”) system.
(g)
DTC Eligibility & Market Loss. If the Borrower fails to maintain its status as “DTC Eligible” for any reason,
the principal amount of the Note shall increase by Five Thousand and No/100 United States Dollars ($5,000) (under Holder’s and Borrower’s
expectation that any principal amount increase will tack back to the Issue Date) and the Variable Conversion Price shall be redefined
to mean seventy percent (70%) multiplied by the Market Price, subject to adjustment as provided in this Note.
(h)
Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Delivery Deadline. 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 by the Deadline (other than a failure due to the circumstances described in Section 1.3 above,
which failure shall be governed by such Section) the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $1,000 per day in cash, for each day beyond the
Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock until the Borrower issues and delivers a certificate to the Holder or credit
the Holder's balance account with OTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon such Holder's conversion
of any Conversion Amount (under Holder's and Borrower's expectation that any damages will tack back to the Issue Date). Such cash amount
shall be paid to Holder by the fifth day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by
written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal
amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of
- 6 -
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, interference with such conversion right are difficult
if not impossible to qualify. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge that the liquidated damages provision contained in this Section 1.4(h)
are justified.
(i)
Rescindment of a Notice of Conversion. If (i) the Borrower fails to respond to Holder within one (1) business day from the
Conversion Date confirming the details of Notice of Conversion, (ii) the Borrower fails to provide any of the shares of the Borrower’s
Common Stock requested in the Notice of Conversion within three (3) business days from the date of receipt of the Note of Conversion,
(iii) the Holder is unable to procure a legal opinion required to have the shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock issued unrestricted
and/or deposited to sell for any reason related to the Borrower’s standing, (iv) the Holder is unable to deposit the shares of the
Borrower’s Common Stock requested in the Notice of Conversion for any reason related to the Borrower’s standing, (v) at any
time after a missed Deadline, at the Holder’s sole discretion, or (vi) if OTC Markets changes the Borrower's designation to ‘Limited
Information’ (Yield), ‘No Information’ (Stop Sign), ‘Caveat Emptor’ (Skull & Crossbones), ‘OTC’,
‘Other OTC’ or ‘Grey Market’ (Exclamation Mark Sign) or other trading restriction on the day of or any day after
the Conversion Date, the Holder maintains the option and sole discretion to rescind the Notice of Conversion (“Rescindment”)
with a “Notice of Rescindment.”
1.5 Concerning the Shares.
The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such shares are sold pursuant
to an effective registration statement under the Act or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion
of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect
that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares
are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”) or other applicable exemption
or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Holder who agrees to sell or otherwise
transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 1.5 and who is an Accredited Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).
Except as otherwise provided in the Purchase Agreement (and subject to the removal provisions set forth below), until such time as the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule
144 or other applicable exemption without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately
sold, each certificate for shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective
registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal
of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:
“NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED
OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN
- 7 -
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE
SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER),
IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A
UNDER SAID ACT OR OTHER APPLICABLE EXEMPTION. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE
MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”
The legend set forth above shall
be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefore free of any transfer legend if (i) the Borrower or its
transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Act, which
opinion shall be reasonably accepted by the Borrower so that the sale or transfer is effected or (ii) in the case of the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed
under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or other applicable exemption without any restriction as to the number of
securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold. In the event that the Borrower does not accept the opinion of counsel
provided by the Holder with respect to the transfer of Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144 or Regulation
S, at the Deadline, it will be considered an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Note.
1.6 Effect of Certain Events.
(a)
Effect of Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Borrower, the effectuation by the Borrower of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than
50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Borrower with
or into any other Person (as defined below) or Persons when the Borrower is not the survivor shall either: (i) be deemed to be an Event
of Default (as defined in Article III) pursuant to which the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Holder upon the consummation of
and as a condition to such transaction an amount equal to the Default Amount (as defined in Article III) or (ii) be treated pursuant to
Section 1.6(b) hereof. “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association,
trust or other entity or organization.
(b)
Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding and prior to conversion
of all of the Notes, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar
event, 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
- 8 -
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 the 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 Borrower
shall not affect any transaction described in this Section 1.6(b) unless (a) it first gives, to the extent practicable, fifteen (15) days
prior written notice (but in any event at least ten (10) days prior written notice) of the record date of the special meeting of shareholders
to approve, or if there is no such record date, the consummation of, such merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization,
reorganization or other similar event or sale of assets (during which time the Holder shall be entitled to convert this Note) and (b)
the resulting successor or acquiring entity (if not the Borrower) assumes by written instrument the obligations of this Section 1.6(b).
The above provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or share exchanges.
(c)
Adjustment Due to Distribution. 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 shareholders 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 shareholders 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 shareholders entitled to such Distribution.
(d)
Adjustment Due to Dilutive Issuance. If, at any time when any Notes are 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, except for shares of Common Stock issued in an Exempt
Issuance (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and any shares issued under conversion or exercise of 3rd party securities
that are already outstanding on the Issue Date, any shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share (before deduction of reasonable
expenses or commissions or 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
- 9 -
(“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 (other than in an Exempt Issuance), 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 (i) 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 (ii) 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 Rights. If, at any time when any Notes are 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)
Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price 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
- 10 -
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,
(ii) 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 the Note.
1.7 Status as Shareholder.
Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by a Holder, (i) the shares covered thereby (other than the shares, if any, which cannot be
issued because their issuance would exceed such Holder’s allocated portion of the Reserved Amount or Maximum Share Amount) shall
be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Holder’s rights as a Holder of such converted portion of this Note
shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided
herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure by the Borrower to comply with the terms of this
Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder has not received certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the tenth (10th)
business day after the expiration of the Deadline with respect to a conversion of any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless
the Holder otherwise elects to retain its status as a holder of Common Stock by so notifying the Borrower) the Holder shall regain the
rights of a Holder of this Note with respect to such unconverted portions of this Note and the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable,
return such unconverted Note to the Holder or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of
this Note has not been converted. In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies (including, without limitation,
(i) the right to receive Conversion Default Payments pursuant to Section 1.3 to the extent required thereby for such Conversion Default
and any subsequent Conversion Default and (ii) the right to have the Conversion Price with respect to subsequent conversions determined
in accordance with Section 1.3) for the Borrower’s failure to convert this Note.
1.8 Prepayment. The Borrower
may at any time pay or prepay all or any portion of the amounts outstanding hereunder by making a payment to the Holder of an amount in
cash equal to the sum of: (w) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note plus (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid
principal amount of this Note plus (y) Default Interest, if any.

Note. In the event, the Borrower completes the uplist of its securities onto a national securities exchange and receives proceeds

hereunder.

hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses, of collection, and the Holder
shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity. Further, if a breach of Sections 3.9, 3.10

trading price during the delinquency period as a base price for the conversion and the Variable Conversion Price shall be redefined to
mean forty percent (40%) multiplied by the Market Price, subject to adjustment as provided in this Note.

and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and the Holder. The term “Note”
and all reference thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this instrument (and the other Notes issued pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement) as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented.
4.4 Assignability. This Note
shall be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to be the benefit of the Holder and its successors
and assigns. Neither the Borrower nor the Holder shall assign this Note or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may assign its rights hereunder to any “accredited investor”
(as defined in Rule 501(a) of the 1933 Act) in a private transaction from the Holder or to any of its “affiliates”, as that
term is defined under the 1934 Act, without the consent of the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, this Note
may be pledged as collateral in connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending arrangement. The Holder and any assignee,
by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal
amount of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
4.5 Cost of Collection. If
default is made in the payment of this Note, the Borrower shall pay the Holder hereof reasonable costs of collection, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees.

shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.
Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Note shall be brought only in the
state courts located in the State of Florida or federal courts located in the State of Florida. The parties to this Note hereby irrevocably
waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction
or venue or based upon forum non conveniens. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT
TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTION
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees and costs.

shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable
- 19 -
under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provision of any agreement. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being
served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by mailing a copy thereof
via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices
to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
4.7 Certain Amounts. Whenever
pursuant to this Note the Borrower is required to pay an amount in excess of the outstanding principal amount (or the portion thereof
required to be paid at that time) plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Default Interest on such interest, the Borrower and the Holder
agree that the actual damages to the Holder from the receipt of cash payment on this Note may be difficult to determine and the amount
to be so paid by the Borrower represents stipulated damages and not a penalty and is intended to compensate the Holder in part for loss
of the opportunity to convert this Note and to earn a return from the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of this
Note at a price in excess of the price paid for such shares pursuant to this Note. The Borrower and the Holder hereby agree that such
amount of stipulated damages is not plainly disproportionate to the possible loss to the Holder from the receipt of a cash payment without
the opportunity to convert this Note into shares of Common Stock.

its acceptance of this Note, each party agrees to be bound by the applicable terms of the Purchase Agreement.

distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire (including by way of merger, consolidation, reclassification or

or other event, and a brief statement regarding the amount and character of such dividend, distribution, right or other event to the extent
known at such time. The Borrower shall make a public announcement of any event requiring notification to the Holder hereunder substantially
simultaneously with the notification to the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.9 including, but not limited to, name
changes, recapitalizations, etc. as soon as possible under law.

4.10 Usury. If it shall be
found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable provision
shall automatically be revised to equal the maximum rate of interest or other amount deemed interest permitted under applicable law. The
Borrower covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not seek to claim or take advantage of any law that would prohibit
or forgive the Borrower from paying all or a portion of the principal or interest on this Note.
4.11 Remedies. The Borrower
acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose
of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations
under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Borrower of the provisions of this
Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties
assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Note and to enforce specifically
the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
No provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Borrower, 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.
4.12 Severability. In the
event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall
be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of
law. Any provision hereof which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any
other provision hereof.
4.13 Dispute Resolution.
In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Conversion Price, Conversion Amount, any prepayment amount or Default Amount,
Default Sum, Closing or Maturity Date, the closing bid price, or fair market value (as the case may be) or the arithmetic calculation
of the Conversion Price or the applicable prepayment amount(s) (as the case may be), the Borrower or the Holder shall submit the disputed
determinations or arithmetic calculations via facsimile (i) within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the applicable notice giving
rise to such dispute to the Borrower or the Holder or (ii) if no notice gave rise to such dispute, at any time after the Holder learned
of the circumstances giving rise to such dispute. If the Holder and the Borrower are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation
within two (2) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation (as the case may be) being submitted to the Borrower
or the Holder, then the Borrower shall, within two (2) Business Days, submit via facsimile (a) the disputed determination of the Conversion
Price, the closing bid price, the or fair market value (as the case may be) to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the
Borrower and approved by the Holder or (b) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Price, Conversion Amount, any prepayment
amount or Default Amount, Default Sum to an independent, outside accountant selected by the Holder that is reasonably acceptable to the
Borrower. The Borrower shall cause at its expense the investment bank or the accountant to perform the determinations or calculations
and notify the Borrower and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives such disputed determinations
or

calculations. Such investment bank’s or accountant’s
determination or calculation shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.
