CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

PUREBASE CORPORATION

 

DUE: May 27, 2031

 

This Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) is a duly authorized and issued convertible promissory note (the “Note”) of PUREBASE CORPORATION, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), which has been issued in accordance with exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to that certain Materials Extraction Agreement, dated May 27, 2021 (the “Agreement”), among the Company, US Mine, LLC, a California limited liability company (the “Holder”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

 

Article I.

 

Section 1.1 Principal and Interest. FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company hereby promises to pay to the order of the Holder, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal sum of Fifty Million Dollars (US$50,000,000) on May 27, 2031 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company further promises to pay interest in cash on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at a rate per annum equal to 2.5%, commencing to accrue on the date hereof and payable on the Maturity Date or earlier conversion as provided herein. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months for the actual number of days elapsed.

 

Section 1.2 Conversion.

 

(a) The Holder may, in its sole discretion, determine to convert (each, a “Conversion”) the outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest due thereon (together, the “Outstanding Balance”), into shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”) at the conversion rate of $0.43 per share (the “Conversion Price”); provided, however, that (i) up to fifty percent (50%) of the Outstanding Balance may be converted on or after such date (the “Listing Date”) as the Company is listed for trading on the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the New York Stock Exchange, or any other national securities exchange; (ii) up to an additional twenty-five percent (25%) of the Outstanding Balance may be converted on or after the six (6) month anniversary of the Trading Date; and (iii) the remainder of the Outstanding Balance may be converted on or after the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Trading Date. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a Conversion shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus accrued interest thereon on the conversion date for the Conversion by (ii) the Conversion Price. The calculation by the Company of the number of Conversion Shares to be received by the Holder upon conversion hereof, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a Conversion Share upon any such conversion; if the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Conversion Share, the Company shall round such fraction of a Conversion Share up to the nearest whole Conversion Share.

 

 

 

 

(b) To convert any portion of this Note into Conversion Shares on any date (an “Conversion Date”), the Holder shall (i) transmit by facsimile (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to 12:00 noon., New York time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company and (ii) return this Note to the Company via a nationally recognized overnight delivery service (or provide an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction). On or before the fifth trading day for the Common Stock following the date of receipt of an Conversion Notice, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to issue and deliver to the Holder at the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled. If the outstanding principal amount of this Note is greater than the principal portion being converted, then the Company shall as soon as practicable after receipt of this Note, at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder a new Note representing the outstanding principal amount not converted. Such new Note (i) shall be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Note, the principal amount remaining outstanding, (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Note, which is the same as the date of this Note, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Note.

 

(c) The Holder shall not have rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to unconverted portions of this Note. However, the Holder will have all the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Conversion Shares as of the date of delivery to the Company of a completed Notice of Conversion.

 

(d) In the event that the Company shall, after the date of issuance of this Note: (i) pay a stock dividend or make a distribution in shares of its capital stock (whether shares of its Common Stock or of capital stock of any other class); (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock; (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (iv) issue by reclassification of its shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, the number of shares issuable upon conversion of this Note shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of capital stock of the Company which the Holder would have owned immediately following such action had this Note been converted immediately prior thereto, and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of this Note shall thereafter be subject to further adjustment pursuant to this Section. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective retroactively immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately upon the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

If any recapitalization, reclassification or reorganization of the capital stock of the Company, or any consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets or other transaction shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or other assets or property (an “Organic Change”), then lawful and adequate provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the Conversion Shares of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the conversion of this Note) such shares of stock, securities or other assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such stock immediately theretofore purchasable by reason of the Conversion Shares and receivable assuming the full conversion of this Note. In the event of any Organic Change, appropriate provision shall be made by the Company with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Note to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the conversion price and of the number of Conversion Shares purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of this Note) shall thereafter be applicable, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. To the extent necessary to effect the foregoing provisions, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder executed and mailed or delivered to the registered Holder hereof at the last address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase. In any event, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall be deemed to assume such obligation to deliver to such Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets even in the absence of a written instrument assuming such obligation to the extent such assumption occurs by operation of law.

 

Section 1.3 Absolute Obligation. Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and liquidated damages (if any) on, this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. This Note is a direct debt obligation of the Company.

 

Section 1.4 Security; Other Rights. The obligations of the Company to the Holder under this Note are unsecured. However, in addition to the rights and remedies given it by this Note and the Agreement, the Holder shall have all those rights and remedies allowed by applicable law.

 

Section 1.5 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of conversion of this Note, that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Conversion Shares into which the Note is convertible based upon the Conversion Price.

 

Article II.

 

Section 2.1 Events of Default. Each of the following events shall constitute a default under this Note (each, an “Event of Default”):

 

  (a) failure by the Company to pay any outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest due on the Maturity Date;
     
  (b) the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall: (i) make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (ii) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, assignee, custodian, sequestrator, liquidator or similar official for itself or any of its assets and properties; (iii) commence a voluntary case for relief as a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code; (iv) file with or otherwise submit to any governmental authority any petition, answer or other document seeking: (A) reorganization, (B) an arrangement with creditors or (C) to take advantage of any other present or future applicable law respecting bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, readjustment of debts, relief of debtors, dissolution or liquidation; (v) file or otherwise submit any answer or other document admitting or failing to contest the material allegations of a petition or other document filed or otherwise submitted against it in any proceeding under any such applicable law, or (vi) be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent by a court of competent jurisdiction;

  (d) any material breach by the Company of any of its representations or warranties contained in this Note; or
     
  (e) any default, whether in whole or in part, shall occur in the due observance or performance of any obligations or other covenants, terms or provisions to be performed by the Company under this Note which is not cured within ten (10) business days after receipt of written notice thereof.

 

If any Event of Default specified in Section 2.1(b) or Section 2.1(c) occurs, then the full principal amount of this Note, together with any other amounts owing in respect thereof, to the date of the Event of Default, shall become immediately due and payable without any action on the part of the Holder, and if any other Event of Default occurs, the full principal amount of this Note, together with any other amounts owing in respect thereof, to the date of acceleration shall become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash. All Notes for which the full amount hereunder shall have been paid in accordance herewith shall promptly be surrendered to or as directed by the Company.

 

Article III.

 

Section 3.1 Covenants. So long as this Note shall remain in effect and until any outstanding principal and interest and all fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under this Note have been paid in full, unless the Holder shall otherwise consent in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), the Company shall:
