Miscellaneous
9.1           Termination.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date: (i) by mutual written consent of Buyer and Sellers; (ii) by either Buyer or Sellers in the event that a condition to the terminating Party's obligations to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall become incapable of satisfaction, without fault by the terminating Party; (iii) by Buyer in the event of any occurrence or occurrences, having individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on the Company; (iv) by Sellers in the event of any occurrence or occurrences, having individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Buyer; or (v) by Buyer in the event it is not satisfied, in its sole and absolute discretion, with the results of its legal, financial or business due diligence investigations of the Company and Sellers; provided, however, that no Party shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement in the event that the failure of the Closing to occur or any condition to Closing to be satisfied shall be attributable to such Party's willful breach of this Agreement.  If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 9.1, all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall terminate, and no Party shall have any liability to the other Party, except for obligations of the Parties in Sections 9.2, 9.6 and 9.7, which shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and except that nothing herein will relieve any Party from liability for any willful breach of this Agreement prior to such termination.

EXHIBIT "A" - Form of Secure Convertible Promissory Note
THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER SECURITIES LAWS.  NEITHER THIS NOTE NOR THE COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE MAY BE REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO A TRANSACTION THAT IS EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, SUCH REGISTRATION.

SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

Principal Amount: US $740,000 Issuance Date: _____ __, 2018

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, TEO Foods Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Obligor"), hereby promises to pay to the order of NERYS USA Inc. (the "Holder"), the principal amount of Seven Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars ($740,000) payable as set forth below ("Principal"). The Obligor also promises to pay to the order of the Holder interest on the principal amount hereof at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, which interest ("Interest") shall be payable on the Maturity Date (defined below) or the Conversion Date (defined below).  The payments of Principal and interest hereunder shall be made in the currency of the United States of America.

This Secured Convertible Promissory Note ("Note") is being issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between the Obligor and the Holder (the "Purchase Agreement"), and is entitled to the benefits of, and evidences obligations incurred under the Purchase Agreement.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

All payment obligations under this Note are secured by the equity ownership in Commercial Targa, S. A. de C. V.  held by the Obligor (the "Subsidiary").

This Note shall be subject to the following additional terms and conditions as part of the agreement between the Holder and Obligor:

1. Maturity.  Subject to Section 3 hereof, all Principal shall be due on demand of the Holder in one (1) installment on or after September 30, 2019 (the "Maturity Date") or prior to such Maturity Date in an Event of Default as provided in Section 9 hereof.  On the Maturity Date, the Obligor shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal, any unpaid Interest and any other outstanding amounts due to the Holder.

2. Payments; Interest. Interest shall be payable on the Maturity Date or the Conversion Date (except as set forth herein) in arrears to the Holder. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of the year of 360 days.  Payment shall be made by wire transfer as instructed by the Holder or by check mailed within five (5) days of the date due, to the address of the Holder as indicated in the Purchase Agreement or as may be changed by the Holder upon ten (10) days written notice to the Obligor at the principal address identified in the Purchase Agreement. In the event that any payment to be made hereunder shall be or become due on Saturday, Sunday or any other day which is a legal bank holiday, such payment shall be or become due on the next succeeding business day.
Exhibit 10.5 -- Page 27



3. Prepayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, at any time prior to the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date, the Obligor shall have the right, exercisable on not less than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Holder of the Note, to prepay the outstanding Principal amount and Interest then due under this Note, in whole or in part, in accordance with this Section 3.  Any notice of prepayment hereunder (an "Optional Prepayment Notice") shall be delivered to the Holder of the Note and shall state: (1) that the Obligor is exercising its right to prepay the Note, and (2) the date of prepayment (which shall not less than thirty (30) days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice, and during which period this Note may be converted in accordance with the terms hereof). On the date fixed for prepayment (the "Optional Prepayment Date"), the Borrower shall make payment of the Optional Prepayment Amount (as defined below) to or upon the order of the Holder as specified by the Holder in writing to the Borrower in the Optional Prepayment Notice.

4. Conversion.

(a) This Note, and any accrued and unpaid Interest hereon, at the option of the Holder, shall be convertible into shares of common stock of the Obligor, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock") in whole or in part at any time, at a conversion price (the "Conversion Price") The principal and any accrued and unpaid Interest may be converted, at the option of the holder, into the Common Stock at a price per share of calculated at a 20% discount to the 30-day average bid price of the Common Stock as may be quoted on the OTCQB, OTCQX Markets or listing on a national stock exchange and in no case below a price of $0.20 per share.

The Holder shall effect conversions under Section 4(a) by surrendering to the Obligor the Note and by delivering to the Obligor a written conversion notice (the "Holder Conversion Notice").  Each Holder Conversion Notice shall specify the amount of Principal and Interest to be converted and the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date may not be prior to the date the Holder delivers such Holder Conversion Notice to the Obligor (the "Conversion Date").  If the Holder is converting less than the entire Principal amount (and pro rata Interest) of this Note, then the Obligor shall deliver to the Holder a new Note for such Principal amount that has not been converted within five (5) business days of the Conversion Date. Each Holder Conversion Notice, once given, shall be irrevocable.

(b) If the Obligor at any time, or from time to time, subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Obligor at any time, or from time to time, combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this Section shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective or, in the case of a stock dividend, the date of such event. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted the Obligor shall promptly mail notice of such adjustment to the Holder, which notice shall set forth the Conversion Price after adjustment, the date on which such adjustment became effective and a brief statement of the facts resulting in such adjustment.

(c) If the Obligor, by reclassification of securities or otherwise, shall change any of the securities as to which conversion rights under this Note exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Note shall thereafter be convertible into such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the conversion rights under this Note immediately prior to such reclassification or other change, and the Conversion Price therefore shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 4.  No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 4(c) upon any conversion or redemption of the Common Stock which is the subject of Section 4(d).
Exhibit 10.5 -- Page 28


(d) In case of any capital reorganization of the capital stock of the Obligor (other than a combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of shares otherwise provided for herein), or any merger or consolidation of the Obligor with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Obligor then, and in each such case, as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder of this Note shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of this Note, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) to which the holder of the shares deliverable upon conversion of this Note would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer if this Note had been converted immediately before such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 4.  The foregoing provisions of this Section 4(d) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the conversion of this Note.  In all events, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Obligor's Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Note with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Note shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon conversion of this Note.
(e) In case all or any portion of the authorized and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Obligor are redeemed or converted or reclassified into other securities or property pursuant to the Obligor's Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise, or the Common Stock otherwise ceases to exist, then, in such case, the Holder of this Note, upon conversion hereof at any time after the date on which the Common Stock is so redeemed or converted, reclassified or ceases to exist (the "Termination Date"), shall receive, in lieu of the number of Conversion Shares that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the Termination Date, the securities or property that would have been received if this Note had been converted in full and the Common Stock received thereupon had been simultaneously converted immediately prior to the Termination Date, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Note.

(f) Not later than ten (10) business days after the Conversion Date, the Obligor will deliver, or will cause to be delivered, to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion of all or a portion of the Principal amount of or Interest under this Note (the "Conversion Shares").  If the Obligor fails to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 4(a) of this Note by the close of business on the tenth business day after the date of exercise, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Obligor's failure to timely deliver certificates representing Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(g) Certificates representing shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon a conversion hereunder may bear restrictive legends and may be Restricted Securities as defined in the Purchase Agreement; such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. Such shares may have affixed thereto a legend substantially in the following form:

Exhibit 10.5 -- Page 29



THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER SECURITIES LAWS.  NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO A TRANSACTION THAT IS EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, SUCH REGISTRATION.

(h) The Obligor shall at all times reserve out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock a number of Conversion Shares necessary to satisfy a full conversion of the Principal amount of and Interest under this Note (the "Required Reserve Amount"). If at any time while this Note remains outstanding the Obligor does not have a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve the Required Reserve Amount (an "Authorized Share Failure"), then the Obligor shall take all action necessary to increase the Obligor's authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to satisfy the Required Reserve Amount. As soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence, the Obligor shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock.  For the avoidance of doubt, an Authorized Share Failure shall constitute an Event of Default pursuant to Section 9 of this Note, notwithstanding the Obligor's obligation or efforts to comply with the requirements set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.

(i) Upon a conversion hereunder the Obligor shall not be required to deliver stock certificates representing fractions of shares of Common Stock.  All fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole share as full, final and complete satisfaction of its obligations for any conversion hereunder.

(j) The transfer of certificates for Conversion Shares shall be made without cost or charge to the Holder in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Obligor shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion.

(k) Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holder hereunder, including, without limitation, any Conversion Notice, shall be in writing and delivered in accordance with the Section 9.2 of the Purchase Agreement.

5. No Waiver.  No failure or delay by the Holder in exercising any right, power or privilege under the Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. No course of dealing between the Obligor and the Holder shall operate as a waiver of any rights by the Holder.

6. Waiver of Presentment and Notice of Dishonor.  The Obligor and all endorsers, guarantors and other parties that may be liable under this Note hereby waive presentment, notice of dishonor, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance or enforcement of this Note.
Exhibit 10.5 -- Page 30



7. Transfer.  This Note and the Conversion Shares may not be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned in the absence of (a) an effective registration statement for this Note or the Conversion Shares, as applicable, or (b) an opinion of counsel (selected by the Holder and reasonably acceptable to the Obligor), in a form reasonable acceptable to the Obligor, that this Note and the Conversion Shares may be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration.

8. Registration.  The Obligor shall register all of the Conversion Shares pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

9. Events of Default.  The entire unpaid Principal amount of this Note and all accrued and unpaid Interest shall, at the option of the Holder exercised by written notice to the Obligor forthwith become immediately and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, if any one or more of the following events (herein called "Events of Default") shall have occurred (for any reason whatsoever and whether such happening shall be voluntary or involuntary or come about or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to or in compliance with any judgement, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body) and be continuing at the time of such notice; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in clause (b) or (c) of this Section 9 occurs, all such amounts due under this Note shall become and be immediately due and payable without any notice, declaration or other act on the part of the Holder of this Note:

(a) if the Principal of this Note and the Interest due thereon is not paid when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, or by acceleration or otherwise, and such default have continued for a period of seven (7) days.

(b) if the Obligor shall:

(i)
file a petition in bankruptcy or petition to take advantage of any insolvency act;

(ii)
on a petition in bankruptcy filed against the Obligor, be adjudicated a bankrupt; or

(iii)
file a petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement under the Federal bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law or statute of the United States of America or any State, district or territory thereof;

(c) if a court of competent jurisdiction shall enter an order, judgment, or decree appointing, without the consent of the Obligor, a receiver of the whole or any substantial part of the Obligor's property, and such other judgment or decree shall not be vacated or set aside or stayed with thirty (30) days from the date of entry thereof;

(d) if, under the provisions of any other law for the relief or aid of debtors, any court or competent jurisdiction shall assume custody or control of the whole or any substantial part of Obligor's property and such custody or control shall not be terminated or stayed within (30) days from the date of assumption of such custody or control;

(f) there shall occur a dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of Obligor, any Subsidiary or any substantial portion of its or their business;

(g) if there is any cessation of operations by Obligor or any Subsidiary or Obligaor or any Subsidiary admits it is otherwise generally unable to pay its debts as such debts become due;

(h) the failure by the Obligor or any Subsidiary to maintain any material intellectual property rights, personal property, real property or other assets or rights which are necessary to conduct its business (whether now or in the future);
