FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Healthcare Business Resources, Inc, Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order of Joel Arberman, or his registered assigns (the “Lender”), the initial principal sum of $100,000.00 (the “Credit Limit”), in accordance with the terms of this Credit Line Note. Lender hereby establishes for a period extending twelve months from the date of execution of this note (July 1, 2023) (the “MATURITY DATE”) a revolving line of credit (the “CREDIT LINE”) in the principal amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00).

 

1. ADVANCES. Any request for an Advance may be made from time to time and any requested Advance will not, when added to the outstanding principal balance of all previous Advances, exceed the Credit Limit. Requests for Advances must be in writing by such officer of Borrower authorized by it to request such Advances. Funds shall be advanced on a per invoice basis and shall be used to pay accounting, audit, legal and other approved expenses to ensure the Borrower satisfies the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Lender may refuse to make any requested Advance if an event of default has occurred and is continuing hereunder either at the time the request is given or the date the Advance is to be made, or if an event bas occurred or condition exists which, with the giving of notice or passing of time or both, would constitute an event of default hereunder as of such dates.

 

The funds from the Advances will be used by the Borrower for invoices submitted for services rendered on or after the execution of this Credit Line Note, and no existing debt shall be paid out of the Credit Line unless approved in writing at the discretion of the Lender. All legal fees incurred in connection with the preparation of the Credit Line Note and related documents shall be the responsibility of the Borrower, and such fees will be paid from an Advance under the terms of the Credit Line Note.

2. INTEREST; INTEREST RATE; SECURITY FOR PAYMENT. Interest on the outstanding balance shall accrue from the date set forth above as the Issuance Date (the “Issuance Date”) at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum. All Interest calculations hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months, shall compound daily and shall be payable in accordance with the terms of this Note. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, in no event shall the applicable interest rate at any time exceed the maximum interest rate allowed under applicable law. All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America or Conversion Shares, as provided for herein, and delivered to Lender at the address furnished to the Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and unpaid Interest, and thereafter to (d) principal. To secure the obligations when due hereunder, the Stephen Epstein, the Borrower’s CEO, hereby grants to Lender a security interest in all of his common stock in Borrower, consisting of 11,000,000 shares of common stock, pursuant to the Stock Pledge Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes.

 

3. CONVERSION OF NOTE. Upon a Triggering Event, (defined as any of the events listed in Section 4 below) this Note is convertible at the Borrower’s discretion into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.

 

3.1. Conversion Right.

 

(a) At any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event the Lender shall have the right to convert the unpaid Principal Amount plus all accrued and unpaid interest on this Note on the conversion date into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (hereinafter, the “Conversion Shares”), calculated using the Conversion Price (which shall be $.01 per share).

 

(b) The Borrower shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. All shares issuable upon each conversion of this Note shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether such conversion would result in the issuance of a fractional share. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Borrower shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the nearest whole share. The Borrower shall pay any and all transfer, stamp, issuance and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Conversion Shares.

3.2. Conversion Price. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of any portion of the unpaid Principal Amount plus all accrued and unpaid interest on this Note on the conversion date pursuant to Section 3.1(a) shall be determined by dividing (x) the applicable Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price (such formula is referred to herein as the “Conversion Rate”).

 

3.3. Mechanics of Conversion.

To convert the Conversion Amount into shares of Common Stock on any date, the Lender shall deliver (whether via email, facsimile or otherwise), on such date (a “Conversion Date”), a copy of an executed notice of conversion substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Borrower. On or before five business days following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Borrower shall transmit by facsimile or email an acknowledgment of confirmation, of receipt of such Conversion Notice to the Lender and the Borrower’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). The Borrower shall issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Lender or its designee, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Lender shall be entitled. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date.

 

(b) Assurances with Respect to Conversion Rights. The Borrower shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Borrower, but shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all of the provisions of this Note and in taking all of such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the Lender against impairment.

11. REISSUANCE OF THIS NOTE.

 

11.1. Transfer. If this Note is to be transferred, the Lender shall surrender this Note to the Borrower, whereupon the Borrower will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Lender a new Note, registered as the Lender may request, representing the outstanding balance being transferred by the Lender and, if less than the entire outstanding balance is being transferred, a new Note to the Lender representing the outstanding balance not being transferred.

 

11.2. Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Borrower of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note (as to which a written certification and the indemnification contemplated below shall suffice as such evidence), and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Lender to the Borrower in customary and reasonable form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lender a new Note representing the outstanding balance.

 

12. REMEDIES, CHARACTERIZATIONS, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Upon the occurrence of an event of default as defined above, Lender may declare the entire unpaid principal balance, together with accrued interest thereon, to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, or other notice of any kind. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under Section 4.1(m), the CEO agrees that his shares pledged in connection with this Note shall be released from the pledge and transferred to and delivered to the Lender, which does not release the Lender from additional remedies set forth herein. Lender may suspend or terminate any obligation it may have hereunder to make additional Advances. To the extent permitted by law, Borrower waives any rights to presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind in connection with this Agreement. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right, power, or privilege hereunder will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided at law or in equity. Borrower agrees to pay all costs of collection incurred by reason of the default, including court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees. The Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Lender and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Borrower therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Lender shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any such breach or any such threatened breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Borrower shall provide all information and documentation to the Lender that is requested by the Lender to enable the Lender to confirm the Borrower’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Note.

13. PAYMENT OF COLLECTION, ENFORCEMENT AND OTHER COSTS. If (a) this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding, or the Lender otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note; or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the Borrower or other proceedings affecting Borrower creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Note; then the Borrower shall pay the costs incurred by the Lender for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements. The Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that no amounts due under this Note shall be affected, or limited, by the fact that the Purchase Price paid for this Note was less than the Original Principal Amount.

 

14. CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Borrower and the Lender and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Note are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Note. Terms used in this Note but defined in the other Transaction Documents shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms on the Issuance Date in such other Transaction Documents unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Lender.

 

15. FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER. No failure or delay on the part of the Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party.

16. NOTICES; PAYMENTS.

 

16.1. Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with the subsection of the Securities Purchase Agreement titled “Notices.”

 

16.2. Currency. All dollar amounts referred to in this Note are in United States Dollars (“U.S. Dollars”), and all amounts owing under this Note shall be paid in U.S. Dollars. All amounts denominated in other currencies (if any) shall be converted into the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation. “Exchange Rate” means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into U.S. Dollars pursuant to this Note, the U.S. Dollar exchange rate as published in The Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation (it being understood and agreed that where an amount is calculated with reference to, or over, a period of time, the date of calculation shall be the final date of such period of time).

 

16.3. Payments. Whenever any payment of cash is to be made by the Borrower to any Person pursuant to this Note, unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, such payment shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to wire transfer instructions delivered to Borrower by Lender from time to time. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day.

19. GOVERNING LAW. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Florida or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Florida. The Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Houston, California for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Note. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Lender from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Borrower’s obligations to the Lender, to realize on any collateral or any other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Lender. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS NOTE OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

20. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Note is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Note so long as this Note as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with one or more valid provisions, the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

21. GENERAL PROVISIONS. All representations and warranties made in this Agreement and the Promissory Note and in any certificate delivered pursuant thereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any loans hereunder. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender, their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign or transfer its rights or delegate its duties hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender. This Agreement, the Promissory Note, and all documents and instruments associated herewith will be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida. This Agreement will be deemed to express, embody, and supersede any previous understanding, agreements, or commitments, whether written or oral, between the parties with respect to the general subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except in writing signed by the parties.

Paragraph 19 of the Note, containing a reference to “Houston, California” is hereby deleted in its entirety and is hereby replaced by the following:

 

19. GOVERNING LAW. This Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Note shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Florida or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Florida.
