CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

US $500,000 October 18th, 2016

 

For good and valuable consideration, Amarantus BioScience Holdings, Inc., a Navadacorporation, (“Maker”), hereby makes and delivers this Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) in favor of Dominick & Dickerman, LLC, (“Holder”), and hereby agree as follows:

 

1.          Principal Obligation and Interest. For value received, Maker promises to pay to Holder, in currently available funds of the United States, the principal sum of Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ($500,000). Maker’s obligation under this Note shall be non-interest bearing.

 

2.          Payment Terms.

 

a.       All principal then outstanding shall be due and payable by the Maker to the Holder on or before 12 months (365) Days from the date of issuance of this Note.

 

b.       Maker shall have the right to prepay all or any part of the principal under this Note without penalty upon not less than ten (10) days prior written notice to Holder.

 

c.       Holder may, upon not less than five (5) days written notice to Maker, convert all or part of the then unpaid principal balance due of this Note into common stock of the Maker pursuant to the terms set forth herein.

 

3.          Conversion. Terms of Conversion: “Mandatory Conversion”: The Notes will be converted on April 18, 2017 ( the “Conversion Date”) into the Company’s common stock in fully registered, unrestricted and fully tradeable form (the “Shares”) in the amount of a) US$500,000 (“Principal Amount") using the price per share of $0.025/share (the “Conversion Price”) to determine the number of shares to be delivered.

 

No fraction of a share or scrip representing a fraction of a share will be issued on conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. The date on which Notice of Conversion is given (the “Conversion Date”) shall be deemed to be the date on which the Holder faxes the Notice of Conversion duly executed to the Maker. Facsimile delivery of the Notice of Conversion shall be accepted by the Maker at facsimile number (415) 688-4484 Attn.: Gerald Commissiong. Certificates representing Common Stock upon conversion will be delivered to the Holder within five (5) trading days from the date the Notice of Conversion is delivered to the Maker. Delivery of shares upon conversion shall be made to the address specified by the Holder or its assigns in the Notice of Conversion.

4.          Conversion Price. Upon any conversion of this Note, the conversion price shall be $0.025 per share, subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events (the “Conversion Price”) as set forth below.

 

a.       Stock Splits, etc. In case the Maker shall: (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock to holders of its outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock, then the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the holder of this Note shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of shares of Common Stock which he would have owned or have been entitled to receive had such Note been converted in advance thereof. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record date, if any, for such event.

 

b.       Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or Disposition of Assets. In case the Maker shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Maker is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Maker), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (“Other Property”), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock of the Maker, then Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon conversion of this Note, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Maker, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note is convertible immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Maker) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Note to be performed and observed by the Maker and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Maker) in order to provide for adjustments of the number of shares of common stock into which this Note is convertible which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 2.4(b). For purposes of this Section 2.4(b), “common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation” shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4(b) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.

c.        Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock or number or kind of securities or other property issuable upon the conversion of this Note or the Conversion Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Maker shall promptly mail by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Holder of this Note notice of such adjustment or adjustments setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock (and other securities or property) issuable upon the conversion of this Note and the Conversion Price of such shares of Common Stock (and other securities or property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made. Such notice, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment.
