SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTE
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BOOMJ, INC., a Nevada corporation (hereinafter called “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to _____________________, with an address of _____________ (the “Holder”), without demand, the sum of _________________________________ Dollars ($________), with simple and unpaid interest thereon, on July 31, 2009 (the “Maturity Date”), if not paid sooner.
This Note has been entered into pursuant to the terms of a subscription agreement between the Borrower, the Holder and certain other holders (the “Other Holders”) of convertible promissory notes (the “Other Notes”), dated of even date herewith (the “Subscription Agreement”). Unless otherwise separately defined herein, all capitalized terms used in this Note shall have the same meaning as is set forth in the Subscription Agreement. The following terms shall apply to this Note:
ARTICLE I
GENERAL PROVISIONS
1.1 Interest Rate. Simple interest payable on this Note shall accrue at the annual rate of twelve percent (12%). Accrued interest will be payable on the Maturity Date, accelerated or otherwise, when the principal and remaining accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable. Interest will be payable in cash or at the election of the Holder, by the Borrower’s delivery of Common Stock valued at the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date as defined in Section 2.1.
1.2 Default Interest Rate. The Borrower shall not have any grace period to pay any monetary amounts due under this Note. After the Maturity Date, accelerated or otherwise, and during the pendency of an Event of Default (as defined in Article III) a default interest rate of the lower of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or maximum rate permitted by law, shall apply to the amounts owed hereunder.
1.3. Conversion Privileges. The conversion rights of the Holder as set forth in Article II of this Note shall remain in full force and effect immediately from the date hereof and until the Note is paid in full regardless of the occurrence of an Event of Default. The principal amount of the Note and the remaining accrued but unpaid interest shall be payable in full on the Maturity Date, unless previously paid or converted into Common Stock in accordance with Article II hereof.
ARTICLE II
CONVERSION RIGHTS
The Holder shall have the right to convert the entire principal amount under this Note and the accrued but unpaid interest thereon into shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock as set forth below.
2.1. Voluntary Conversion into the Borrower’s Common Stock.
(a) The Holder shall have the right from and after the Issue Date of the issuance of this Note and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note and accrued interest, at the election of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being a “Conversion Date”) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as such stock exists on the date of issuance of this Note, or any shares of capital stock of Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified, at the conversion price as defined in Section 2.1(b) hereof (the “Conversion Price”), determined as provided herein. Upon delivery to the Borrower of a completed Notice of Conversion, a form of which is annexed hereto, Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder within three (3) business days after the Conversion Date (such third day being the “Delivery Date”) that number of shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in accordance with the foregoing. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the principal of the Note (and any interest) to be converted, by the Conversion Price.
(b) Subject to adjustment as provided for in Section 2.1(c) hereof, the Conversion Price per share of Common Stock shall be $0.70 (“Conversion Price”).
(c) The Conversion Price and the number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion of this Note, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as follows:
A. Merger, Sale of Assets, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall consolidate with or merge into or sell or convey all or substantially all its assets to any other corporation, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable to the Borrower on account of such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, had such Borrower converted the entire Note immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to successive transactions of a similar nature by any such successor or purchaser. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the anti-dilution provisions of this Section shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser or surviving entity of the surviving corporation after any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance.
B. Reclassification, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes of the Borrower’s capital stock that may be issued or outstanding, this Note, as to the unpaid principal amount thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to the conversion of this Note immediately prior to such reclassification or other change.
C. Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event.
2
D. Share Issuance. So long as this Note is outstanding, if the Borrower shall issue or agree to issue any shares of Common Stock other than with respect to any Excepted Issuances for a consideration less than the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issue, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to such other lower issue price. For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of the above-described security and again upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the then applicable Conversion Price. The reduction of the Conversion Price described in this paragraph is in addition to other rights of the Holder described in this Note and the Subscription Agreement.
E. Performance Adjustment of Conversion Price. In addition to any other adjustment(s) made to the Conversion Price, in the event that the Missed Percentage (as defined below) is greater than zero, the Conversion Price in effect on July 31, 2009 shall be automatically reduced as follows: (i) for every 1% of Missed Percentage the Conversion Price will be adjusted by 1%; (ii) in the event that the Missed Percentage is 50% or more, the Conversion Price shall be reduced by 50%. For the purposes hereof, the term “Missed Percentage” shall mean the greater of: (A) the percentage represented by: (x) the difference between $42,404,500 less the actual gross revenue of the Borrower for the twelve (12) months ending June 30, 2009 (based the Borrower’s audited or reviewed financial statements for the period ending June 30, 2009) over: (y) $42,404,500, or (B) the percentage represented by: (x) the difference between $443,700 less the actual operating income of the Borrower for the twelve (12) months ending June 30, 2009 (based the Borrower’s audited or reviewed financial statements for the period ending June 30, 2009) over: (y) $443,700. The Borrower shall notify the Holder of the Missed Percentage in writing by no later than July 26, 2009. In the event that the Missed Percentage, as calculated above, is a negative number, the Missed Percentage shall be zero, and there shall be no adjustment to the Conversion Price. “Gross revenue” shall include revenue from operations excluding extraordinary items, non-recurring revenues and revenue from discontinued operations. Failure to notify the Borrower of the Missed Percentage by July 26, 2009 shall automatically result in the Missed Percentage being deemed greater than 50%. The Missed Percentage adjustment in the Conversion Price, if any, shall be made on and as of the date a Form 10-Q (or equivalent) is actually filed, if such filing is made before July 31, 2009. In no event will the Conversion Price be increased as a result of the application of this Section.
(d) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1(c) above, the Borrower shall promptly provide notice to the Holder setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
(e) The Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock during the time periods and in the amounts described in the Subscription Agreement. The Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares of Common Stock will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents, and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.
3
2.2 No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of this Note, but an adjustment in cash will be made, in respect of any fraction of a share (which will be valued based on the Conversion Price) which would otherwise be issuable upon the surrender of this Note for conversion and a check in the amount of the value of such fractional share shall be delivered to the Holder.
2.3 Method of Conversion. This Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part as described in Section 2.1(a) hereof. Upon partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance of this Note and interest which shall not have been converted or paid.
ARTICLE III
EVENT OF DEFAULT
The occurrence of any of the following events of default (“Event of Default”) shall, at the option of the Holder hereof, make all sums of principal and accrued interest then remaining unpaid hereon and all other amounts payable hereunder immediately due and payable, upon demand, without presentment or grace period, all of which hereby are expressly waived, except as set forth below:

SECURITY INTEREST
4. Security Interest/Waiver of Automatic Stay. This Note is secured by a security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Holder pursuant to a Security Agreement, as delivered by Borrower to Holder. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that should a proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law be commenced by or against the Borrower, or if any of the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) should become the subject of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, then the Holder should be entitled to, among other relief to which the Holder may be entitled under the Transaction Documents and any other agreement to which the Borrower and Holder are parties (collectively, "Loan Documents") and/or applicable law, an order from the court granting immediate relief from the automatic stay pursuant to 11 U.S.C.

SECTION 362 NOR ANY OTHER SECTION OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE OR OTHER STATUTE OR RULE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, 11 U.S.C.

The Borrower hereby consents to any motion for relief from stay that may be filed by the Holder in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding initiated by or against the Borrower and, further, agrees not to file any opposition to any motion for relief from stay filed by the Holder. The Borrower represents, acknowledges and agrees that this provision is a specific and material aspect of the Loan Documents, and that the Holder would not agree to the terms of the Loan Documents if this waiver were not a part of this Note. The Borrower further represents, acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily made, that neither the Holder nor any person acting on behalf of the Holder has made any representations to induce this waiver, that the Borrower has been represented (or has had the opportunity to he represented) in the signing of this Note and the Loan Documents and in the making of this waiver by independent legal counsel selected by the Borrower and that the Borrower has discussed this waiver with counsel.
