$207,122.69   Denver Colorado   October 15, 2019

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Holder, HOME TREASURE FINDERS, INC., a Colorado corporation, and its successors and assigns (the “Company”), promises to pay to the order of ENERGY HUNTER RESOURCES, INC. or its successors and permitted assigns (“Holder”), the principal sum of TWO HUNDRED SEVEN THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-TWO Dollars and SIXTY-NINE cents ($207,122.69), together with interest from October 15, 2019 on the balance of this Note from time to time remaining unpaid at a rate of 4.00% per annum until maturity, both principal and interest being payable at the address designated in Section 13, or at such other place as Holder may from time to time designate in writing.

 

The principal of this Note shall mature and be due and payable on November 1, 2021.

 

All accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable immediately on maturity of the principal of this Note.

 

All past due principal and accrued interest on this Note shall bear interest from maturity until paid at the rate of 10.00% per annum.

 

 

 

 

All payments under this Note shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for public and private debts at the time of payments.

 

As used in this Note, “senior indebtedness” means all indebtedness or other monetary obligations of the Company that are secured by assets of the Company (if any) or for which the instrument creating or evidencing the same or pursuant to which the same is outstanding expressly provides that such indebtedness or obligation shall be senior in right of payment to this Note or the Company’s subordinated indebtedness.

 

Section 1. CONVERSION. Commencing 180 days subsequent to the date of this Note, any portion or all of the principal and accrued interest payable pursuant to the terms of this Note shall be convertible by the Holder at any time prior to payment into the no par value common stock of the Company (the "Common Stock") at the rate of $0.352 of principal and/or interest per share; provided, however, if the Company files a registration statement, which permits the registration of issued and outstanding shares for resale in accordance with the provisions of Section 2 of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to convert on and after the effective date of such registration statement if the date occurs prior to 180 days prior to the date of this Note. The Company agrees at all times to reserve from its authorized but unissued shares a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to satisfy the Holder's rights of conversion as set forth herein.

 

Section 2. REGISTRATION. The Holder understands and acknowledges that the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Note will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or qualified under the Colorado Law on the grounds that the offering and sale of the securities contemplated by this Note are exempt from registration under the Securities Act and exempt from qualification pursuant to Colorado Law, and that Company's reliance upon such exemptions is predicated upon Investor's representations set forth in this Note and/or Subscription Agreement. The Company shall have no obligation to register the common shares issued pursuant to the conversion rights set forth herein unless the Company files a form of registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act which permits the registration of issued and outstanding shares for resale under which circumstances it shall include all of the shares issued pursuant to the Holder’s rights of conversion.

(v) the Company’s dissolution, termination of existence, insolvency or business failure; the appointment of a receiver of all or any part of the property of the Company; an assignment for the benefit of creditors by the Company; or the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against the Company or any guarantor, surety or endorser for the Company which results in the entry of an order for relief or which remains undismissed, undischarged or unbonded for a period of 60 days or more.

(b) The entire unpaid principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest on such unpaid principal balance shall immediately be due and payable at the option of the Holder upon the occurrence of any one or more of the Events of Default and at any time after the occurrence of any one or more of the Events of Default.

 

Section 5. CUMULATIVE RIGHTS. No delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power or right under this Note or under any other instrument executed pursuant to this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such power or right, nor shall a single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude other or further exercise of such power or right or the exercise of any other power or right.

 

Section 6. WAIVER. The Company and all endorsers, sureties and guarantors of this Note waive demand, presentment, protest, notice of dishonor, notice of nonpayment, notice of intention to accelerate or notice of acceleration other than notice of default pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii), notice of protest and any and all lack of diligence or delay in collection or the filing of suit on this Note which may occur, and agree to all extensions and partial payments, before or after maturity, without prejudice to the holder of this Note.

Section 10. USURY. All agreements between the Company and the holders of this Note, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of the maturity of this Note or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to the holder of this Note for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be loaned under this Agreement or otherwise, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable Colorado law. If from any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision of this Note or of any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any such circumstances the holder of this Note shall ever receive anything of value as interest or deemed interest by applicable law under this Note or any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note or otherwise an amount that would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount that would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing under this Note or on account of any other indebtedness of the Company to the holder of this Note relating to this Note, and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of this Note and such other indebtedness, such excess shall be refunded to the Company. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable with respect to any indebtedness of the Company to the holder of this Note, under any specific contingency, exceeds the highest lawful rate, the Company and the holder of this Note shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (b) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread the total amount of interest throughout the full term of such indebtedness so that the actual rate of interest on account of such indebtedness is uniform throughout the term of such indebtedness, and/or (c) allocate interest between portions of such indebtedness, to the end that no such portion shall bear interest at a rate greater than that permitted by law. The terms and provisions of this Section shall control and supersede every other conflicting provision of all agreements between the Company and the holders of this Note. The Holders has been advised by the Company to seek the advice of an attorney and an accountant in connection with the issuance of this Note. The Company has had the opportunity to seek the advice of an attorney and accountant of the Company’s choice in connection with issuance of this Note.

Section 12. SEVERABILITY. If one or more provisions of this Note are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision(s) shall be excluded from this Note and the balance of this Note shall be interpreted as if such provision(s) were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
