CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE
Zoned Properties, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of Bryan McLaren, an Arizona resident, or registered assigns (the “Holder”) on the “Maturity Date” as hereinafter defined, at the principal offices of the Company, the principal sum set forth above (the “Principal”), and to pay interest on the outstanding principal sum at the rate of six percent (6.0%) per annum payable quarterly due by the 1st of each quarter following the execution of this agreement (this “Debenture”). The Maturity Date as defined herein shall be five (5) years from the date hereof (i.e. January 09, 2022). Interest shall commence accruing on the date hereof, be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, and shall be payable with the Principal at the Maturity Date. All payments due hereunder, shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. Provided that any payment otherwise due on a Saturday, Sunday or legal Bank holiday may be paid on the following business day. In the event that for any reason whatsoever any interest or other consideration payable with respect to this Debenture shall be deemed to be usurious by a court of competent jurisdiction under the laws of the State of Nevada 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.
1. Right of Prepayment, Conversion Rights and Certain Adjustments.
(a) Right of Prepayment. The Company may prepay this Debenture at any point after six (6) months, in whole or in part.
(b) Conversion.
(i) Voluntary Conversion. At any time the Holder is entitled to convert all or a portion of the Principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest due hereunder into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) at the Conversion Price. Should the Company default on payment hereof, the Holder, may at its option, extend all conversion rights, through and including the date the Company tenders or attempts to tender payment in full of all amounts due under this Debenture. Conversion rights shall terminate upon acceptance by Holder of payment in full of principal, accrued interest and any other amounts due under this Debenture.
(ii) Calculation. The number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of this Debenture shall be determined by dividing (x) the amount of principal and accrued and unpaid interest to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price then in effect.
(iii) Conversion Price; Number of Shares. The conversion price shall be $5.00 per share of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Conversion Price”).

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 1(c) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re classification.
