CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

$5,647

July 10, 2009, with an Effective Date

as provided below

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ACIES Corporation, a Nevada Corporation (the “Company”), having an address of 132 West 36th Street, 3rd Floor, New York, New York 10018, hereby promises to pay to the order of Pinnacle Three Corporation and/or assigns (the “Holder”), at the offices of Holder at 1445 Windjammer Way, Hollywood, Florida 33160, or such other place as may be designated by Holder to the Company in writing, the aggregate principal amount of Five Thousand Six Hundred Forty-Seven Dollars ($5,647), together with interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. The “Effective Date” of this Note shall be _________.

1.	Loan Amount. This Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note” or “Promissory Note”) evidences the loan of Five Thousand Six Hundred Forty-Seven Dollars ($5,647), from the Holder to the Company during the period from September 24, 2008 to the date of this Note (hereinafter referred to as the “Loan” or the “Principal”).

2.	Payment Terms. The Company promises to pay to Holder the balance of Principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, on September 23, 2009 (the “Maturity Date”), unless this Note is earlier prepaid as herein provided or earlier converted into Common Stock (as hereinafter defined) of the Company pursuant to Section 3 hereof. All payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. Payment shall be credited first to the accrued interest then due and payable and the remainder to Principal.

3.	Interest. Interest on the outstanding portion of Principal of this Note shall accrue at a rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the Effective Date until paid in full. All computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year for actual days elapsed. Such interest shall accrue and be paid upon the Maturity Date of the Loan.


	a.	Notwithstanding any provision in this Note, the total liability for payments of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including all charges, fees, exactions, or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest, shall not exceed the limit imposed by the usury laws of the State of Florida or the applicable laws of the United States of America, whichever shall be higher (the “Maximum Rate”).

	b.	In the event the total liability for payments of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including, without limitation, all charges, fees, exactions or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest, which for any month or other interest payment period exceeds the Maximum Rate, all sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest for the period in question (and without further agreement or notice by, among or to the Holder the undersigned) shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance, with the same force and effect as though the undersigned had specifically designated such excess sums to be so applied to the reduction of the principal balance and the Holder had agreed to accept such sums as a premium-free prepayment of principal; provided, however, that the Holder may, at any time and from time to time, elect, by notice in writing to the undersigned, to waive, reduce or limit the collection of any sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest rather than accept such sums as a prepayment of the principal balance. The undersigned does not intend or expect to pay nor does the Holder intend or expect to charge, accept or collect any interest under this Note greater than the Maximum Rate.

	c.	If any payment of principal or interest on this Note shall become due on a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which national banks are not open for business, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day.

Option to Convert this Note.

	a.	At any time prior to the Maturity Date or prior to payment in full by the Company, Holder shall have the option to convert the unpaid principal balance of this Promissory Note, together with all accrued interest, into shares of common stock (the “Shares” and the “Common Stock”) of the Company (the “Conversion Option”) at the conversion price of $0.02 per common share (the “Conversion Price”);

	b.	In order to exercise this Conversion Option, the Holder shall surrender this Promissory Note to the Company, accompanied by written notice of its intentions to exercise this Conversion Option, which notice shall set forth the principal amount of this Promissory Note to be converted and shall be in the form of Exhibit A, attached hereto (“Notice of Conversion”). Within ten (10) business days of the Company’s receipt of the Notice of Conversion and this Note, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder, written confirmation that the Shares have been issued in the name of the Holder;

	c.	In the event of the exercise of the Conversion Option, Holder shall cooperate with the Company to promptly take any and all additional actions required to make Holder a stockholder of the Company including, without limitation, in connection with the issuance of the Shares, such representations as to financial condition, investment intent and sophisticated investor status as are reasonably required by counsel for the Company. Holder recognizes that the Shares issued upon conversion of this Note will constitute “*restricted securities*” under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the resale of which will be subject to the limitations of such rules;

	d.	The Company shall at all times take any and all additional actions as are necessary to maintain the required authority to issue the Shares to the Holder, in the event the Holder exercises its rights under the Conversion Option;

	e.	Payment to Company prior to Holder’s delivery of a Notice of Conversion shall terminate Holder’s option to convert;

	f.	Conversion Calculations: No Fractional Shares. Conversion calculations pursuant to this Section 4 shall be rounded to the nearest whole share of Common Stock, and no fractional shares shall be issuable by the Company upon conversion of this Note. Conversion of this Note shall be deemed payment in full of this Note and this Note shall thereupon be cancelled;

	g.	Anti-Dilution Protection. If the Company at any time or from time to time on or after the effective date of the issuance of this Note (the “Original Issuance Date”) effects a subdivision of its outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased, and conversely, if the Company at any time or from time to time on or after the Original Issuance Date combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased; and

	h.	No Encumbrances. All Shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon conversion of this Note will, upon issuance by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Note, be validly issued, free from all taxes and liens with respect to the issuance thereof (other than those created by the holders), free from all pre-emptive or similar rights and be fully paid and non assessable.

Redemption. This Note may be redeemed by the Company by payment of the entire Principal and interest outstanding under this Note in cash to Holder. The Company must provide notice to Holder not less than thirty (30) days prior to affecting such redemption. During the period from providing of such notice to Holder and the Company affecting the redemption, the Company may cancel such redemption by providing notice of such cancellation to Holder.

	a.	This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without penalty.

	b.	Any partial prepayment shall be applied to any principal Loan amount outstanding and shall not postpone the due date of any subsequent monthly installment or change the minimum amount of such monthly installment.

	c.	The Holder may apply any and all amounts received by it for application to the Loan evidenced hereby in such order and manner as the Holder in its discretion may determine. The undersigned understands and agrees that if for any reason the undersigned fails to pay any amount due under this Note on or before the date when due, the Holder shall be entitled to damages for the detriment caused thereby, but that it is extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of such damages.
