CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
Principal Amount: U.S. $70,000 | Issue Date: September 21st, 2018 |
Fort Lauderdale, Florida |
This FMC GlobalSat Holdings, Inc. Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) is made as of the Issue Date set forth above, by FMC GlobalSat Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in favor of CHRISTOPHER MACDONALD, an individual (the “Holder”). For value received, the Company promises to pay Holder, the Principal Amount set forth above. Interest shall accrue from the date of this Note on the unpaid principal amount at a rate equal to eight percent (8%) per annum, compounded annually. This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Note Purchase Agreement dated as of the Issue Date (such agreement, as amended from time to time thereafter, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company and the investors listed on the Schedule of Investors attached to the Purchase Agreement as Exhibit A, and is subject to the provisions thereof. This Note is also subject to the following terms and conditions.
1. Maturity. Unless converted as provided in Section 2, this Note will automatically mature and be due and payable on the date that is three (3) months from the Issue Date (the “Maturity Date”). Subject to Section 2 below, interest shall accrue on this Note but shall not be due and payable until the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal sum of this Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall become immediately due and payable upon the commission of any act of bankruptcy by the Company, the execution by the Company of a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, the filing by or against the Company of a petition in bankruptcy or any petition for relief under the federal bankruptcy act, or the continuation of such petition without dismissal for a period of ninety (90) days or more, or the appointment of a receiver or trustee to take possession of the property or assets of the Company.
2. Conversion.
(a) Investment by the Holder. The entire principal amount of, and, at the Company’s option, accrued interest thereon, this Note shall be converted into shares of the capital stock of the Company (the “Equity Securities”) issued and sold at the close of the Company’s next equity financing in a single transaction or a series of related transactions yielding gross proceeds to the Company of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate (excluding the conversion of then-outstanding convertible debt) at a minimum price per Share of $2.00 (the “Next Equity Financing”). The number of shares of Equity Securities to be issued upon such conversion shall be equal to the lesser of the quotient obtained by dividing the entire principal amount of this Note, and, at the Company’s option, accrued interest thereon, by the price per share of the Equity Securities issued in the Next Equity Financing, rounded to the nearest whole share, and the issuance of such shares upon such conversion shall be upon the terms and subject to the conditions applicable to the Next Equity Financing. Notwithstanding the forgoing, at Holder’s election, the entire principal amount of this Note plus accrued interest thereon, shall be paid by the Company in cash at the Closing of the Next Equity Financing in lieu of being converted to Equity Securities.
(b) Conversion Upon Acquisition. In the event that all or substantially all of the assets or shares of the Company are acquired or merged into another entity prior to the closing date of the Next Equity Financing (an “Acquisition”), then the principal amount of this Note, accrued interest thereon, and a prepayment premium equal to twenty percent (20%) of the principal amount of this Note shall be repaid at the closing of the Acquisition.
(c) Mechanics and Effect of Conversion. No fractional shares of the Company’s Equity Securities will be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company will pay to the Holder in cash the amount of the unconverted principal and interest balance of this Note that would otherwise be converted into such fractional share. Upon conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 2, the Holder shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at the principal offices of the Company or any transfer agent of the Company. At its expense, the Company will, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to such Holder, at such principal office, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares to which such Holder is entitled upon such conversion, together with any other securities and property to which the Holder is entitled upon such conversion under the terms of this Note, if any, including a check payable to the Holder for any cash amounts payable as described herein. Upon conversion of this Note, the Company will be forever released from all of its obligations and liabilities under this Note with regard to that portion of the principal amount and accrued interest being converted including without limitation the obligation to pay such portion of the principal amount and accrued interest.
(d) Payment of Interest. Upon conversion of the principal amount of this Note into the Company’s capital stock, any interest accrued on this Note that is not by reason of Sections 2(a) or 2(b) hereof simultaneously converted into securities of the Company shall be immediately paid to the Holder.
3. Payment. All payments shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at such place as the Holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing to the Company. Payment shall be credited first to the accrued interest then due and payable and the remainder applied to principal. Prepayment of this Note may be made at any time without penalty.
4. Transfer; Successors, and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Note shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may not assign, pledge, or otherwise transfer this Note without the prior written consent of the Company, except for transfers to affiliates. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Note may be transferred only upon surrender of the originally-signed Note for registration of transfer, duly endorsed, or accompanied by a duly executed written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Holder. Thereupon, a new note for the same principal amount and interest will be issued to, and registered in the name of, the transferee. Interest and principal are payable only to the registered holder of this Note.
