__________, 2010

SEBRING SOFTWARE, LLC., a Florida limited liability company (the “Company”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to _____________________________ (the “Noteholder”), at _____________________, or assigns, the sum of ___________________ Thousand Dollars ($___________), or such other or greater amount as may be outstanding, plus interest accrued on unpaid principal, compounded annually (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and on the basis of a 365-day year), at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, calculated from the date of this Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) until the principal amount hereof and all interest accrued thereon is paid (or converted, as provided in Section 2 hereof).  The principal amount of this Note shall be payable at the principal offices of Noteholder or by mail to the registered address of the holder of this Note (unless this Note shall have been previously converted pursuant to Section 2 hereof or as provided otherwise in this Note) on the earliest to occur of (i) ________, 2011 (the “Maturity Date”), or (ii) an Event of Default.  Interest accrued under this Note shall be payable within fifteen (15) days of the end of each calendar quarter in either cash or shares of the Company’s common membership interests (“Shares”) at the Company’s sole option.  If the Company elects to pay interest in Shares, the Noteholder shall receive such number of shares as equals the amount of interest due and payable divided by the Conversion Price as defined in Section 1.5 below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this introductory paragraph, in the event the Company is merged with or into or acquired by a public company (a “Public Event”) during the term of this Note, then, on the first (1st) day of each month, beginning in the seventh (7th) full calendar month following the Public Event (the “Start Date”), the Noteholder shall have the right to either (a) receive a payment equal to one-sixth (1/6th) of the principal outstanding on the Start Date (the “Monthly Principal Amount”) or (b) convert the Monthly Principal Amount in accordance with Section 2 of this Note until such time as the outstanding principal under this Note has been repaid in full.
 
 

 
The following is a statement of the rights of the holder of this Note and the conditions to which this Note is subject, and to which the holder hereof, by the acceptance of this Note, agrees:

2.           Conversion.

4.           Adjustments and Reservation of Shares.  The number and character of shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note (or any shares of stock or other securities or property at the time receivable or issuable upon conversion of this Note) are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

4.1           Adjustment for Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, Recapitalizations, etc.  In the event that the Company shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of securities affected by any stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar event that will, in the future, affect the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock, then, and in each such case, Noteholder, upon conversion of this Note at any time after the Company shall fix the record date for such event, shall receive, in addition to the shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon conversion on the Conversion Date, the right to receive the securities of the Company to which such holder would have been entitled if such holder had converted this Note immediately prior to such record date (all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Note).

4.2   Adjustment for Dividends and Distributions.  In the event that the Company shall make or issue, or shall fix a record date for the determination of eligible holders of securities entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable with respect to the Conversion Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon conversion of this Note) that is payable in (a) securities of the Company other than capital stock or (b) any other assets, then, and in each such case, Noteholder, upon conversion of this Note at any time after the consummation, effective date or record date of such event, shall receive, in addition to the shares of Conversion Stock (or such other stock or securities) issuable upon such conversion prior to such date, the securities or such other assets of the Company to which such holder would have been entitled upon such date if such holder had converted this Note immediately prior thereto (all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Note).
 
 

 
4.3   Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger.  In the event of any reorganization after the date of this Note, or in the event, after such date, the Company shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, then, and in each such case, Noteholder, upon the conversion of this Note (as provided in Section 2) at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the stock or other securities and property receivable upon the conversion of this Note prior to such consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which such Noteholder would have been entitled upon the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance if such holder had converted this Note immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 4, and the successor or purchasing corporation in such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance (if other than the Company) shall duly execute and deliver to Noteholder a supplement hereto acknowledging such corporation’s obligations under this Note.  In each such case, the terms of the Note shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities or property receivable upon the conversion of this Note after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance.

4.4           Conversion of Stock.  In the event that all of the authorized Conversion Stock of the Company is converted, pursuant to the Company’s Articles of Organization, into other capital stock or securities or property, or the Conversion Stock otherwise ceases to exist, then Noteholder, upon conversion of this Note at any time after the date on which the Conversion Stock is so converted or ceases to exist (the “Termination Date”), shall receive, in lieu of the number of shares of Conversion Stock that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the Termination Date (the “Former Number of Shares of Conversion Stock”), the stock and other securities and property to which such Noteholder would have been entitled to receive upon the Termination Date if such holder had converted this Note with respect to the Former Number of Shares of Conversion Stock immediately prior to the Termination Date (all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Note).

4.5           Notice of Adjustments.  The Company shall promptly give written notice of each adjustment or readjustment of the number of shares of Conversion Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion of this Note, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered holder of this Note at the holder’s address as shown on the Company’s books.  The notice shall describe the adjustment or readjustment and show in reasonable detail the facts on which the adjustment or readjustment is based.

4.6           No Change Necessary.  The form of this Note need not be changed because of any adjustment in the number of shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon its conversion.

4.7           Reservation of Stock.  The Company will, as soon as practicable, take all necessary corporate action and obtain all necessary government consents and approvals to authorize the issuance of this Note and, prior to the conversion hereof, the shares of Conversion Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note.  If at any time the number of authorized but unissued Conversion Stock or other securities shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of this Note, then the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its legal counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Conversion Stock or other securities to such number of shares of Conversion Stock or other securities as shall be sufficient for such purpose.
 
 

 
5.           Fully Paid Shares.  All shares of Conversion Stock issued upon the conversion of this Note shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

6.           No Rights or Liabilities as Stockholder.  This Note does not by itself entitle Noteholder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company.  In the absence of conversion of this Note, no provisions of this Note, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the holder, shall cause such holder to be a stockholder of the Company for any purpose.

7.           Corporate Action; No Impairment.  The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or bylaws, or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, repurchase of securities, sale of assets or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of Noteholder under this Note against wrongful impairment.

8.           Default.  Five (5) days after written notice from Noteholder to the Company for monetary defaults and ten (10) days after written notice from Noteholder to the Company for non-monetary defaults, if such defaults are not cured within such five (5) day or ten day (10) periods, respectively, each of the following shall constitute an event of default ("Event of Default") under this Agreement:
