Investview Inc. (the "Company"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Jeff Culton, or registered assigns (the "Holder") on or before _________, 2016 (collectively, the "Maturity Date"), at the principal offices of the Company, the principal sum owed Holder on such date, and to pay interest on the outstanding principal sum hereof at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum (the "Note"). All principal and interest shall be payable on the Maturity Date in cash or shares of common stock, at the discretion of the Investor except that interest may be paid in shares of common stock at the discretion of the Company; and interest shall commence accruing on the date hereof, computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, provided that any payment otherwise due on a Saturday, Sunday or legal Bank holiday may be paid on the following business day. All payments due hereunder, to the extent not converted into common stock in accordance with the terms hereof, shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. In the event that for any reason whatsoever any interest or other consideration payable with respect to this Note shall be deemed to be usurious by a court of competent jurisdiction under the laws of the State of Utah or the laws of any other state governing the repayment hereof, then so much of such interest or other consideration as shall be deemed to be usurious shall be held by the holder as security for the repayment of the principal amount hereof and shall otherwise be waived. This Note is part of a series of Notes issued in that certain Offering described in the Subscription Agreement entered between the Holder and the Company. This Note, and all Notes issued by the Company pursuant to the Offering, shall be secured by all of the assets of the Company on a pari passu basis as set forth in that certain Security Agreement entered by and between the Company and the Holder (the “Security Agreement”).
