FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Grom Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), promises to pay to the order of TeleMate.Net Software, LLC., a Georgia Limited Liability Company ("Holder"), or its successors and assigns, in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of this Promissory Note, of $1,000,000 (one million dollars) with interest thereon at the rate of 0.68% per annum compounded annually, said principal and all accrued interest thereon being payable on January 1st of each year beginning with January 1, 2018 and principal plus unpaid accrued interest being due and payable on or before January 2, 2020, unless converted into shares of the Company's Common Stock as described herein below. Notwithstanding the above, the interest rate charged shall in no event exceed the maximum rate permitted by law.

 

The following is a statement of the rights of Holder and the conditions to which this Promissory Note is subject, and to which Holder, by the acceptance of this Promissory Note, agrees:

 

1.       Payment. Unless converted as described herein, all payments of interest and principal shall be made to the Holder by bank wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to the account so specified by the Holder in lawful money of the United States of America (or to such other account as the Holder hereof shall notify the Company in writing) at the time each payment is due. Under no circumstances shall the Company have the right to prepay the principal before the maturity date.

 

2.       Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an "Event of Default" under this Promissory Note:

 

(a)       Failure to Pay. If Company shall fail to pay, when due, any interest or principal due such payment shall not have been made within ten business (10) days of Company's receipt of Holder's written notice to the Company of such failure to pay. In such event the entire principal and interest due shall accrue interest at the compounded rate equal to the lesser of (i) twelve percent (12%) per annum or (ii) the maximum rate allowably by law, and the failure to make any payment of principal or interest when due shall cause all amounts owing under the Promissory Note to become due at once.

 

(c)       Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty made or deemed made by the Company to the Holder herein is incorrect in any material respect on the date as of which such representation or warranty was made or deemed made.

 

(d)      Breach of Covenants. The Company fails to observe or perform any material covenant, obligation, condition or agreement contained in this Promissory Note and such failure continues for 5 days after written notice to the Company.

 

(e)      Voluntary Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings. If the Company shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of itself or of all or a substantial part of its property, (ii) make a general assignment for the benefit of its or any of its creditors, (iii) commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession of its property by any official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it, or (iv) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing.

(f)      Involuntary Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings. If proceedings for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of the Company or of all or a substantial part of the property thereof, or an involuntary case or other proceedings seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the Company or the debts thereof under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or hereafter in effect shall be commenced, and an order for relief entered in such proceeding shall not be dismissed or discharged within thirty (30) days of the entry of such an order.

 

3.       Notice and Presentment. The Company hereby waives demand, notice, presentment, protest and notice of dishonor.

 

4.       Holder's Right to Convert.

 

(a)      In the sole discretion of the Holder, upon five (5) days' notice to the Company, Holder may convert any part of the Principal Sum due hereunder, plus accrued interest into shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Conversion Shares") at any time from the date hereof, at a conversion price equal to $3.25 per share. In the event of (i) any reclassification (including, without limitation, a reclassification effected by means of an exchange or tender offer by the Company), (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination of the Company with another corporation as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive securities or other property (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock or (iii) any sale or conveyance of the property of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other corporation as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive securities or other property (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then the Company or the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall enter into an Amended and Restated Promissory Note providing that this Promissory Note shall be convertible into the kind and amount of securities or other property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance which the Holder of this Promissory Note would have received if this Promissory Note had been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance. Such Amended and Restated Promissory Note shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for herein.

 

(c)      Upon providing to the Company or its designated attorney of a facsimile or original of the Holder's signed Notice of Conversion, the Company shall forward written instructions to its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates representing that number of shares of Common Stock into which this Promissory Note is convertible in accordance with the provisions regarding conversion set forth in this Promissory Note, with proper restrictive legend, in the name of Holder (or his nominee) and in such denominations to be specified at conversion representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, as applicable.

The person in whose name the certificate of Common Stock is to be registered shall be treated as a shareholder of record on and after the Conversion Date. Upon surrender of any Promissory Notes that are to be converted in part, the Company or its assigns shall issue to the Holder a new convertible Promissory Note equal to any remaining Principal Sum due plus the accrued interest on the Promissory Note through the Date of Conversion.

 

(e)          For purposes of this Promissory Note, "Common Stock" shall mean the class of common stock of the Company currently outstanding In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into capital stock with respect to such common stock), reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change with respect to the Company shares (an "Adjustment Event"), the shares and number of shares of any class or series affected thereby, and all calculations provided for that are based upon numbers of shares of any class or series (or prices therefor) affected thereby, shall be equitably adjusted to the extent necessary to provide Holder the same economic effect as contemplated by this Promissory Note prior to such stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, reclassification, combination, recapitalization or other like change. The Company shall promptly notify Holder of any Adjustment Event.

The date on which the Notice of Conversion is effective ("Conversion Date") shall be deemed to be the date on which the Company has delivered to the Holder at its address for notice a facsimile or original of the signed Notice of Conversion.

6.       Rights of Holder Upon Default. Upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such Event of Default, Holder may declare all outstanding obligations payable by Company hereunder to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived.
