EVOLUCIA INC., a Nevada corporation (“Evolucia”), and EVOLUCIA LIGHTING INC., a Florida corporation (“Evolucia Lighting” and collectively with Evolucia, the "Maker"), for value received, hereby jointly and severally,  promises to pay to Sack Family Investment Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or assigns (the "Holder"), the principal sum of FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($400,000.00) in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.  Maker further promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance hereof at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum. Payments on this Note shall be made to Holder at such place or location, in Delaware, designated by Holder to Maker.  The principal balance, plus accrued and unpaid interest then outstanding shall be due and payable in full upon the earlier of (i) December 31, 2013 or (ii) an investment by Leader Electronics Inc. or, its affiliates in Evolucia or (iii) upon the Maker raising capital pursuant to its private offering of Secured Convertible Promissory Notes.  The Maker represents that Holder shall receive the initial proceeds from capital received in connection with an investment by Leader Electronics Inc. or in connection with the private offering.  Any amount of principal or interest on this Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid.  Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed.

In no event shall the interest charged hereunder exceed the maximum permitted under the laws of any state having jurisdiction.  Holder shall not have the right to charge or collect, nor shall Maker be required or obligated to pay interest or payments in the nature of interest, which would result in interest being charged or collected at a rate in excess of the maximum rate of interest allowed to be contracted for by applicable law, as changed from time to time.  In the event that any payment which is interest or in the nature of interest is made by Maker or received by Holder which would result in the rate of interest being charged or collected being in excess of the maximum rate of interest allowed to be contracted for by applicable law, as changed from time to time, then the portion of any such payment which causes the rate of interest being charged or collected to exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed to be contracted for under applicable law should be refunded to borrower.

This Note can be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without the consent of the Holder provided that Maker shall pay all accrued interest on the principal so prepaid to date of such prepayment.
