Exhibit “A”

 

10% PER ANNUM, $200,000 CONVERTIBLE NOTE

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Nightfood Holdings, Inc. a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada, (the “Maker” of this Security) with at least 2,000,000 common shares issued and outstanding, issues this Security and promises to pay to Regal Consulting, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the state of Delaware, or its Assignees (the “Holder”) the Principal Sum along with the Interest Rate (10% per year, simple interest) and any other fees according to the terms herein. This Note will become effective upon execution by both parties (the “Effective Date”).

 

The Principal Sum is $200,000 (Two Hundred Thousand Dollars) plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees. The Consideration is $200,000 (Two Hundred Thousand Dollars). The Consultant shall be owed $200,000 of Consideration upon closing of this Note. The note shall bear simple interest of 10% per year accruing from the date signed.

 

MATURITY:

 

The Maturity Date is six months from the Effective Date of each payment (the “Maturity Date”) and is the date upon which the Principal Sum of this Note, as well as any unpaid interest and other fees, shall be due and payable.

 

CONVERSION:

 

The Conversion Price shall be the lesser of $0.44 or 65% of the three lowest trades in the 10 trading days prior to the conversion; Unless otherwise agreed in writing by both parties, at no time will the Holder convert any amount of the Note into common stock that would result in the Holder owning more than 4.99% of the common stock outstanding; The Maker may prepay the Note prior to the Maturity Date without written approval from the Holder, provided the principal is prepaid in full, plus full interest, plus a prepayment penalty of 25% on the principal. The Holder has the right, at any time after 180 days from the Effective Date, at its election, to convert all or part of the outstanding and unpaid Principal Sum and accrued interest into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Maker as per this conversion formula: Number of shares receivable upon conversion equals the dollar conversion amount divided by the Conversion Price; Conversions are to be delivered to the Maker and Transfer Agent by method of the Holder’s choice (including, but not limited to email, facsimile, mail, overnight courier, or personal delivery), and all conversions shall be cashless and not require further payment from the Holder. The Maker shall have been thereafter deemed to have irrevocably confirmed and irrevocably ratified such notice of conversion and waived any objection thereto.The Maker shall deliver the shares from any conversion to the Holder (in any name directed by the Holder) within 3 (three) business days of conversion notice delivery. If the Maker fails to deliver shares in accordance with the timeframe stated in Section f, the Holder, at anytime prior to selling all of those shares, may rescind any portion, in whole or in part, of that particular conversion attributable to the unsold shares and have the rescinded conversion amount returned to the Principal Sum with the rescinded conversion shares returned to the Maker (under the Holder’s and the Maker’s expectations that any returned conversion amounts will tack back to the original date of the Note). In addition for each conversion, in the event that shares are not delivered by the fourth business day (inclusive of the day of conversion), a penalty of $2,000 per day will be assessed for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until share delivery is made; and such penalty will be added to the Principal Sum of the Note (under the Holder’s and the Maker’s expectations that any penalty amounts will track back to the original date of the Note).

 

 A-1 

 

 

RESERVATION OF SHARES: At all times during which this Note is convertible, the Maker will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note. The Maker will at all times reserve at least 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock for conversion.

 

DEFAULT: The following are events of default under this Note: (i) the Maker shall fail to pay any principal under the Note when due and payable (or payable by conversion) thereunder; or (ii) the Maker shall fail to pay any interest or any other amount under the Note when due and payable (or payable by conversion) thereunder; or (iii) a receiver, trustee or other similar official shall be appointed over the Maker or a material part of its assets and such appointment shall remain uncontested for twenty (20) days or shall not be dismissed or discharged within Thirty (60) days; or (iv) the Maker shall become insolvent or generally fails to pay, or admits in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they become due, subject to applicable grace periods, if any; or (v) the Maker shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (vi) the Maker shall file a petition for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); or (vii) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or filed against the Maker; or (viii) the Maker shall lose its status as “DTC Eligible” or the Maker’s shareholders shall lose the ability to deposit (either electronically or by physical certificates, or otherwise) shares into the DTC System; or (ix) the Maker shall become delinquent in its filing requirements as a fully-reporting Maker registered with the SEC; or (x) the Maker shall fail to meet all requirements to satisfy the availability of Rule 144 to the Holder or its assigns including but not limited to timely fulfillment of its filing requirements as a fully-reporting Maker registered with the SEC, requirements for XBRL filings, and requirements for disclosure of financial statements on its website.

REMEDIES: In the event of any default, the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest liquidated damages, fees and other amounts owing, in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash or stock at the Mandatory Default Amount. The Mandatory Default Amount means the greater of (i) the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts hereon, divided by the Conversion Price on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either demanded or paid in full, whichever has a lower Conversion Price, multiplied by the VWAP on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either demanded or paid in full, whichever has a higher VWAP, or (ii) 150% of the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus 100% of accrued and unpaid interest, liquidated damages, fees and other amounts hereon. Commencing five (5) days after the occurrence of any event of default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Note, the interest rate on this Note shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. In connection with such acceleration described herein, the Holder need not provide, and the Maker hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by the Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have all rights as a holder of the note until such time, if any, as the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 6. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent event of default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Maker’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

NO SHORTING: The Holder agrees that so long as this Note from the Maker to the Holder remains outstanding, the Holder will not enter into or effect “short sales” of the Common Stock or hedging transaction which establishes a net short position with respect to the Common Stock of the Maker. The Maker acknowledges and agrees that upon delivery of a conversion notice by the Holder, the Holder immediately owns the shares of Common Stock described in the conversion notice and any sale of those shares issuable under such conversion notice would not be considered short sales.

 

ASSIGNABILITY: The Maker may not assign this Note. This Note will be binding upon the Maker and its successors and will inure to the benefit of the Holder and its successors and assigns and may be assigned by the Holder to anyone without the Maker’s approval.

 

 A-3

OPINION OF COUNSEL: In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, the Holder has the right to have any such opinion provided by its counsel. Holder also has the right to have any such opinion provided by Maker’s counsel at the cost of the Maker.

A copy of the Note is attached hereto. You should familiarize yourself with your issuance and delivery obligations, as Transfer Agent, contained therein.

 

You are hereby irrevocably authorized and instructed to reserve a sufficient number of shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) of the Company at least 2,000,000 (two million shares of Common stock for the Note which should be held in reserve for the Holder as of this date) for issuance upon full conversion of the Note in accordance with the terms thereof. The amount of Common Stock so reserved may be increased, from time to time, by written instructions of the Company and the Holder. In the event of a reverse stock split the reserve should remain unchanged unless instructed by the Holder and the Company.

 

The ability to process a notice of conversion under the Note (a “Conversion Notice”) in a timely manner is a material obligation of the Company pursuant to the Note. Your firm is hereby irrevocably authorized and instructed to issue shares (“Shares”) of Common Stock of the Company to the Holder without any further action or confirmation by the Company (from the reserve, but in the event there are insufficient reserve shares of Common Stock to accommodate a Conversion Notice (defined below) your firm and the Company agree that the Conversion Notice should be completed using authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock that the Company has in its treasury) upon your receipt from the Holder of a Conversion Notice executed by the Holder. The Shares should be issued without any restrictive legend if: (A) the Holder provides you with an opinion of counsel of the Holder, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions (and satisfactory to the transfer agent), to the effect that the Shares issued to the Holder pursuant to the Conversion Notice are not “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 and should be issued to the Holder without any restrictive legend, provided that the Company is current on its SEC filings and the opinion is dated within 90 days from the date of the issuance or transfer request; and (B) the number of Shares to be issued is less than 4.99% of the total issued common stock of the Company.

 

 

 

 

The Company hereby requests that your firm act immediately, without delay and without the need for any action or confirmation by the Company with respect to the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to any Conversion Notices received from the Holder.

 

The Shares shall not be subject to any stop-transfer restrictions at any time. The Company hereby confirms to you and to the Holder that no instruction other than as contemplated herein will be given to you by the Company with respect to the matters referenced herein. The Company hereby authorizes you, and you shall be obligated, to disregard any contrary instruction received by or on behalf of the Company or any other person purporting to represent the Company.

 

You are hereby authorized and directed to promptly disclose to the Holder, after Holder’s request from time to time, the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and the total number of shares of Common Stock that are authorized but unissued and unreserved.

 

The Company shall indemnify you and your officers, directors, principals, partners, agents and

 

representatives, and hold each of them harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its attorneys) incurred by or asserted against you or any of them arising out of or in connection the instructions set forth herein, the performance of your duties hereunder and otherwise in respect thereof, including the costs and expenses of defending yourself or themselves against any claim or liability hereunder, except that the Company shall not be liable hereunder as to matters in respect of which it is determined that you have acted with gross negligence or in bad faith (which gross negligence or bad faith must be determined by a final, non-appealable order, judgment, decree or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction). You shall have no liability to the Company in respect to any action taken or any failure to act in respect of this if such action was taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, and you shall be entitled to rely in this regard on the advice of counsel.

 

The Board of Directors of the Company has approved the foregoing (irrevocable instructions) and does hereby extend the Company’s irrevocable agreement to indemnify your firm for all loss, liability or expense in carrying out the authority and direction herein contained on the terms herein set forth.

 

If the Company’s account is in arrears with the Transfer Agent, the Transfer Agent shall not have any obligation to act upon these instructions; however the Holder shall have the option to cure the outstanding balance with the Transfer Agent.

 

The Company agrees that in the event that the Transfer Agent resigns as the Company’s transfer agent, or if the Company decides to switch or terminate the current Transfer Agent, the Company shall engage a suitable replacement transfer agent that will agree to serve as transfer agent for the Company and be bound by the terms and conditions of these Irrevocable Instructions within five (5) business days. If a suitable replacement share reserve, as deemed by the Holder, is not established with any new transfer agencies retained by the company within 5 business days of migration, The Company shall pay the Holder a $1,500 per day penalty until said reserve is established.

 

 

 

 

The Holder is intended to be and is third party beneficiary hereof, and no amendment or modification to the instructions set forth herein may be made without the consent of the Holder.

 

Very truly yours,
  
Maker: Nightfood Holdings, Inc.
