This Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the “Amended and Restated Promissory Note”) is effective on October 30, 2014.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, NUTRAFUELS, Inc, a Florida corporation (the “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of Craig Hetherington, an individual (the “Holder”), the principal amount of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000.00), together with interest accrued under the Original Promissory Note but not paid as of the date hereof shall be due and payable together with interest hereunder on or before August 26, 2015. At no time shall the aggregate obligation of Maker to Holder exceed the principal sum of this Amended and Restated Promissory Note plus accrued but unpaid interest on amounts previously received. Maker may at any time prior to conversion, redemption or repayment in full of this Amended and Restated Promissory Note repay all or any part of said loans under this Amended and Restated Promissory Note.
1. Interest. The outstanding principal balance of this Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of this Amended and Restated Promissory Note at a fixed rate of fifteen (15%) percent per annum. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year.
2. Interest Method Of Payment; Application. Payments (including all prepayments) received by Holder on this Amended and Restated Promissory Note shall be applied first to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and only thereafter to the outstanding principal balance of this Amended and Restated Promissory Note.
3. Conversion. Holder shall have the right to convert the outstanding principal balance of and accrued interest on this Amended and Restated Promissory Note, or such lesser portion thereof as Holder may elect, into Shares ("Shares") of Maker's Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) at any time unless this Amended and Restated Promissory Note is sooner redeemed or paid in full. In the event that Maker undertakes a corporate restructuring this Amended and Restated Promissory Note shall be binding upon any successor entity or assign.
Upon any conversion of this Amended and Restated Promissory Note, the sum of the principal balance and accrued interest to be converted shall be converted into shares of the Maker’s Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”). The per share conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) shall be $1.00 per share.

Upon conversion of only a portion of the principal of this Amended and Restated Promissory Note, Maker shall issue and deliver to, or upon the written order of Holder, a new note in the principal amount of this Amended and Restated Promissory Note not
converted, which new Amended and Restated Promissory Note shall entitle the Holder to interest on the principal amount to the same extent as if the unconverted portion of this Amended and Restated Promissory Note had not been surrendered for conversion. Maker covenants that all Shares, which may be issued upon conversion, will, upon issuance, be fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges caused or created by Maker with respect to the issuance.
