CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
 
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ABCO Energy lnc., a Nevada corporation (the "Issuer'' of this Security) with at least 29,073,565 common shares issued and outstanding, issues this Security and promises to pay to JMJ Financial, a Nevada sole proprietorship, or its Assignees (the ''Investor") the Principal Sum along with the Interest Rate and any other fees according to the terms herein. This Note will become effective only upon execution by both parties and delivery of the first payment of Consideration by the Investor (the "Effective Date").
 
The Principal Sum is up to $250,000 (two hundred fifty thousand) plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees. The Consideration is $225,000 (two hundred twenty-five thousand) payable by wire (there exists a £25,000 original issue discount (the "OID")). The Investor shall pay $25,000 of Consideration upon closing of this Note. The Investor may pay additional Consideration to the Issuer in such amounts and at such dates as the Investor may choose, however, the Issuer has the right to reject any of those payments within 24 hours of receipt of rejected payments. THE PRINCIPAL SUM DUE TO THE INVESTOR SHALL BE BASED ON THE CONSIDERATION ACTUALLY PAID BY INVESTOR (PLUS AN APPROXIMATE 10% ORIGINAL ISSUE  DISCOUNT THAT IS BASED ON THE CONSIDERATION ACTUALLY PAID BY THE INVESTOR AS WELL AS ANY OTHER INTEREST OR FEES) SUCH THAT THE ISSUER  IS ONLY REQUIRED TO REPAY THE AMOUNT FUNDED AND THE ISSUER IS NOT REQUIRED TO REPAY ANY UNFUNDED PORTION OF THIS NOTE. The Maturity  Date is two years from the Effective Date of each payment (the "Maturity Date") and is the date upon which the Principal Sum of this Note, as well as any unpaid interest and other fees, shall be due and payable. The Conversion Price is 60% of the lowest trade price in the 25 trading days previous to the conversion (In the case that conversion shares are not deliverable by DWAC an additional 10% discount will apply; and if the shares are ineligible for deposit into the DTC system and only eligible for Xclearing deposit an additional 5% discount shall apply; in the case of both an additional cumulative 15% discount shall apply). Unless otherwise agreed in writing by both parties, at no time will the Investor convert any amount of the Note into common stock that would result in the Investor owning more than 4.99% of the common stock outstanding.
 
1. Interest and Repayment. A one-time Interest charge of 12% shall be applied to the Principal Sum. The Interest is in addition to the OID, and that OID remains payable regardless of time and manner of payment by the Issuer. The Issuer may not repay any payment of Consideration under this Note prior to its Maturity Date without the written consent of the Investor.
 
2. Conversion. The Investor has the right, at any time after the Effective Date, at its election, to convert all or part of the outstanding and unpaid Principal Sum and accrued interest (and any other fees) into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Issuer as per this conversion formula: Number of shares receivable upon conversion equals the dollar conversion amount divided by the Conversion Price. Conversion notices may be delivered to the Issuer by method of the Investor's choice (including but not limited to email, facsimile, mail, overnight courier, or personal delivery), and all conversions shall be cashless and not require further payment from the Investor. If no objection is delivered from the Issuer to the Investor regarding any variable or calculation of the conversion notice within 24 hours of delivery of the conversion notice, the Issuer shall have been thereafter deemed to have irrevocably confirmed and irrevocably ratified such notice of conversion and waived any objection thereto. The Issuer shall deliver the shares from any conversion to the Investor (in any name directed by the Investor) within 3 (three) business days of conversion notice delivery. The Investor, at any time prior to selling all of the shares from a conversion, may, for any reason, rescind any portion, in whole or in part, of that particular conversion attributable to the unsold shares and have the rescinded conversion amount returned to the Principal Sum with the rescinded conversion shares returned to the Issuer (under the Investor's and the Issuer's expectations that any returned conversion amounts will tack back to the original date of the Note).
 
3. Reservation of Shares. At all times during which this Note is outstanding, the Issuer will reserve for the Investor from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a number of shares of not less than five times the number of shares necessary to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. The Issuer initially shall reserve at least 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock for conversion. The Issuer represents that VStock Transfer, LLC serves as the Issuer's transfer agent as of the Effective Date of this Note. The Issuer acknowledges that VStock Transfer, LLC is a party to an irrevocable instruction and share reservation letter agreement between the Issuer, the transfer agent and the Investor regarding this Note, and the Issuer agrees that the Issuer's use of VStock Transfer, LLC as its transfer agent is material to the Investor and that the Issuer may not terminate or replace VStock Transfer, LLC as the issuer's transfer agent without obtaining the Investor's written consent thirty days in advance of such termination or replacement.

5. Terms of Future Financings. So long as this Note is outstanding, upon any issuance by the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries of any security with any term more favorable to the holder of such security or with a term in favor of the holder of such security that was not similarly provided to the Investor in this Note, then the Issuer shall notify the Investor of such additional or more favorable term and such term, at the Investor's option, shall become a part of the transaction documents with the Investor. The types of terms contained in another security that may be more favorable to the holder of such security include, but are not limited to, teems addressing conversion discounts, conversion lookback periods, interest rates, original issue discounts, stock sale price, private placement price per share, and warrant coverage. The Issuer shall notify the Investor of such additional or more favorable term, including the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price, exercise price and other pricing terms, and, at any time while this Note is outstanding, the Investor may request of the Issuer and/or its transfer agent (and they will provide) a schedule of all issuances since the Effective Date of this Note of shares of common stock or of securities entitling the holder thereof to acquire shares of common stock, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, shares of common stock of the Issuer.

8. Remedies. For each conversion, in the event that shares are not delivered by the fourth business day (inclusive of the day of conversion), a foe of $2,000 per day will be assessed for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until share delivery is made; and such fee will be added to the Principal Sum of the Note (under the Investor's and the Issuer's expectations that any penal ty amounts will tack back to the original date of the Note). Upon each occurrence of any other event of default, the Investor may asses and apply a fee against the Issuer of not less than $50,000 at any time any balance remains outstanding on this Note, regardless of whether such event of default has been cured or remedied and regardless of whether the Investor delivered a notice of default at the time of the event of default or at the time the Investor discovered the event of default. The parties agree that rho fee shall be applied to the balance of the Note and shall tack back to the Effective Date of the Note for purposes of Rule 144. The parties acknowledge and agree that upon an event of default. Investor's damages would be l111ccrtain and difficult (if not impossible) to accurately estimate because of the parties' inability to predict future interest rates and future share prices, Investor's increased risk, and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for Investor, among other reasons. Accordingly, any fees, charges, and default interest due under this Note or any other Transaction Document between the parties arc intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, liquidated damages. The parties agree that such liquidated damages are a reasonable estimate of Investor 's actual damages and not a penalty, and shall not be deemed in any way to limit any other right or remedy Investor may have hereunder, at law or in equity. The parties acknowledge and agree that under the circumstances existing a t the time this Note is entered into, such liquidated damages arc fair and reasonable and are not penalties. All fe.es, charges, and default interest provided for in this Note and the Transaction Documents are agreed to by the parties to be based upon the obligations and the risks assumed by the parties as of the Effective Date and are consistent with investments of this type. The liquidated damages provisions shall not limit or preclude a party from pursuing any other remedy available at law or in equity; provided, however, that the liquidated damages are intended to be in lieu of actual damages.
 
9. Acceleration. ln the event of any default, the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Investor's election, immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount. The Mandatory Default Amount means the greater of (i) the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts hereon, divided by the Conversion Price on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either demanded or paid in full, whichever has a lower Conversion Price, multiplied by the VWAP on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either demanded or paid in full, whichever has a higher VWAP, or (ii) 150% of the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus 100% of accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts hereon. Commencing five (5) days after the occurrence of any event of default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Note, the interest rate on this Note shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. ln connection with such acceleration described herein, the Investor need not provide, and the Issuer hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind. and the Investor may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it
 
 
 

 

under applicable law.  Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by the Investor at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Investor shall have all rights as a holder of the note until such time, if any, as the Investor receives full payment pursuant to this Section 9. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent event of default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit the Investor's right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Issuer 's failure to timely deliver ce11ificates  representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof or the Issuer's obligations regarding the termination, replacement or resignation  of the Issuer's transfer agent.
 
10. No Shorting. The Investor agrees that 80 long as this Note from the Issuer to the Investor remains outstanding, the Investor will not enter into or effect "short sales" of the Common Stock or hedging transaction which establishes a net short position with respec.t to the Common Stock of the Issuer. The Issuer acknowledges and agrees that upon delivery of a conversion notice by the Investor, the Investor immediately owns the shares of Common Stock described in the conversion notice and any sale of those shares issuable under such conversion  notice would not  be considered  short sales.
