9% CONVERTIBLE NOTE

US $20,000.00

Henderson, Nevada

November 01, 2013

 

For good and valuable consideration, Co-Signer, Inc., a Nevada corporation, ("Maker"), hereby makes and delivers this 9% Secured Note (this "Note") in favor of Steven Jon Smith Family Trust of 2005, or his/her assigns ("Holder"), and hereby agrees as follows:

1.                   Principal Obligation and Interest. For value received, Maker promises to pay to Holder at 6250 Mountain Vista Street, Suite C-1, Henderson, NV 89014, or at such other place as Holder may designate in writing, in currently available funds of the United States, the principal amount of $20,000.00 (U.S. Dollars). Maker's obligation under this Note shall accrue simple interest at the rate of Nine Percent (9.0%) per year from the date hereof until paid in full. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year or 366-day year, as applicable and actual days lapsed.

2.                   Payment Terms.

a.                   All principal and accrued interest then outstanding shall be due and payable by the Maker on or before two (2) Years from the date hereof (the "Maturity Date").

b.                   Accrued interest hereunder shall be due and payable from Maker to Holder on a semi-annual basis, with the first such payment being due on December 31, 2013, and future payments being due each six (6) months thereafter until the Maturity Date or until earlier redemption of this Note under the terms hereof.

c.                    At any time after the date hereof and before the Maturity Date, this Note may be paid or redeemed in whole, or in part on one or more occasions, at the sole option of the Maker.

d.                   All payments of interest hereunder may, at the sole option of the Maker, be paid in validly issued shares of common stock in the Maker, par value $0.001, issued to Holder. Common stock issued to Holder as payment hereunder shall be valued at a price per share equal to the average of the closing market prices (VWAP) for the Maker's common stock during the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the due date for such payment.

e.                    All payments shall be applied first to interest, then to principal and shall be credited to the Maker's account on the date that such payment is physically received by the Holder.

 
 

 

3.                   Optional Conversion; Adjustments to Conversion Price.

 

a.                   At any time after one (1) year from the date hereof, the Holder shall have the right, at its option, to convert all or any portion of the principal and accrued interest due and owing hereunder into shares of fully paid and non-assessable Common Stock of the Maker at the price of $0.075 per share, (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment as explained herein.

 

b.                   If the Maker shall (i) declare a dividend or other distribution payable in securities, (ii) split its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number, or (iv) increase or decrease the number of shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock including any such reclassification in connection with a merger, consolidation or other business combination in which the Maker is the continuing entity (any such corporate event, an "Event"), then in each instance the Conversion Price shall be adjusted such that the number of shares issued upon conversion of the sum due and owing hereunder will equal the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued but for such event.

 

c.                    If, at any time in the two (2) years following the issuance of this Note, the Maker sells, grants any option to purchase, otherwise disposes of, or issues (or announces any sale, grant, or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock of the Maker at an effective price per share that is lower than the Conversion Price then in effect (a "Dilutive Issuance"), then the Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal the effective price per share of such Dilutive Issuance.

 

d.                   Notices.

 

                                                                    i.                        Immediately upon any adjustment of the Conversion Price, the Maker shall give written notice thereof to Holder, setting forth in reasonable detail and certifying the calculation of such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based.

 

                                                                  ii.                        The Maker shall give written notice to the Holder at least five (5) days prior to the date on which the Maker closes its books or takes a record (a) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon Common Stock, or (b) with respect to any dissolution or liquidation or any merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or similar event.

 

4.                   Mandatory Conversion.

 

a.                              In the event that (i) the VWAP of the Corporation's Common Stock is in excess of $0.125 per share for 10 consecutive trading days as determined by Bloomberg reporting, and (ii) the 90- day average daily trading volume of the Corporation's Common Stock is above 100,000 shares, as determined by Bloomberg reporting, all sums due and owing will automatically be converted into the number of shares of Common Stock into which such sums would be converted on the date of such occurrence (the "Forced Conversion Date"), in accordance with the terms of this Note. 

b.                             The Corporation shall give to the Holder written notice of mandatory conversion at least ten (10) business days prior to the Forced Conversion Date, setting forth therein: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Holder's Note is to be converted based on such Conversion Price; (ii) that the conversion is to be effective on the Forced Conversion Date; and (iii) the address of the place or places at which this Note is to be surrendered. Such notice shall be sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holder at the Holder's address of record. On or before the Forced Conversion Date, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Corporation at any place set forth in such notice or, if no such place is so set forth, at the principal executive offices of the Corporation. As soon as practicable after the Forced Conversion Date and the surrender of this Note, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to each such holder, or its nominee, at such holder's address of record, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof.

5.                   Registration Rights.

a. The Maker agrees that if, at any time, and from time to time, the Board of Directors of the Maker shall authorize the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 on Form S-1, S-3, or S-4 in connection with the proposed offer of any of its securities by it or any of its stockholders, the Maker shall: (A) promptly notify each Holder that such registration statement will be filed and that the Common Stock issuable to Holder upon conversion of this Note at the Conversion Price then in effect (the "Registrable Securities") will be included in such registration statement at such Holder's request; (B) cause such registration statement to cover all of such Registrable Securities for which such Holder requests inclusion; (C) use best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable; (D) use best efforts to cause such registration statement to remain effective until the earliest to occur of (i) such date as the sellers of Registrable Securities have completed the distribution described in the registration statement and (ii) such time that all of such Registrable Securities are no longer, by reason of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, required to be registered for the sale thereof by such Holders; and (E) take all other reasonable action necessary under any federal or state law or regulation of any governmental authority to permit all such Registrable Securities to be sold or otherwise disposed of, and will maintain such compliance with each such federal and state law and regulation of any governmental authority for the period necessary for such Holder to promptly effect the proposed sale or other disposition.

 

b.                   The right of any Holder to request inclusion in any registration pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate if all Registrable Securities may immediately be sold under Rule 144.

 

c.                    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5, the Maker may at any time, abandon or delay any registration commenced by the Maker. In the event of such abandonment by the Maker, the Maker shall not be required to continue registration of shares requested by the Holder for inclusion.

 

d.                    In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Maker's capital stock, the Maker shall not be required to include any of the Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Maker and the underwriters selected by it, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Maker. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Maker that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Maker shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling stockholders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling stockholders).
