FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MOXIAN CHINA, INC., a Nevada Corporation (the “Company”) located at Room 2313-2315, Block B, Zhongshen Garden, Caitian South Road, Futian District, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China 518101 hereby promises to pay to the order of MOXIAN CHINA LIMITED located at Offshore Chambers, P.O. Box 217, Apia, Samoa or its successors or assigns (the “Holder”), the principal amount of __________ United States Dollars (US$_________) on or prior to one (1) year after the issuance of this Note (the “Maturity Date”), in accordance with the terms hereof. This Convertible Promissory Note (this note, and all notifications, extensions, future advances, supplements, and renewals thereof, and any substitutions therefor, hereinafter referred to as the “Note” together with other notes that are issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the “Notes”) was issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement, dated as of the even date hereof (the “Loan Agreement”), entered into by and between the Company and the Holder. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.

 

1.       Payments of Principal and Interest.

 

(a)     Payment of Principal. The principal amount of this Note shall be paid to the Holder on or prior to the Maturity Date.

 

(b)    Payment of Interest. This Note shall be interest free and shall not accrue any interest. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Note shall bear interest at the lesser of (i) the compounded rate of five (5%) percent per year until such Event of Default is cured or (ii) the maximum permitted under applicable law.

 

(c)     General Payment Provisions. So long as a Holder or any of its nominees shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained elsewhere in this Note to the contrary, all sums of principal, interest or otherwise becoming due on this Note shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by certified bank check or wire transfer to such account as the Holder may designate by written notice to the Company no later than 4:00 p.m. New York time, on the date such payment is due, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon. Any payment made after 4:00 p.m. New York time, on a Business Day will be deemed made on the next following Business Day. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be payable on any principal so extended for the period of such extension. All amounts payable under this Note shall be paid free and clear of, and without reduction by reason of, any deduction, set-off or counterclaim. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section to the Holder and to each other Person holding this Note. For purposes of this Note, “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the State of New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed.

 

 

(d)    Optional Prepayment. At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Company may pre-pay this Note without penalty and, upon such prepayment in full, the Holder shall have no further rights under this Note, including no rights of conversion.

 

2.      Conversion of Note.

 

(a)    Mandatory Conversion. On the date when the Company consummates a Qualified Financing (as defined below), all or any portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal and interest of this Note shall automatically convert into fully paid and non- assessable shares of the Company’s $.001 par value per share common stock (the “Common Stock”) at a conversion price equal to the per share price of the Qualified Securities (as defined below), subject to adjustment to reflect forward or reverse stock splits, recapitalizations, stock dividends as set forth herein (the “Mandatory Conversion Price”). The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued as a result of the automatic conversion of the Note (the “Conversion Shares”) shall be calculated by dividing: (x) all or any portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal and interest of this Note, by (y) the Mandatory Conversion Price. For the purpose of this Note, the term “Qualified Financing” is defined as the sale for cash by the Company of any equity or convertible securities (“Qualified Securities”) generating aggregate gross proceeds of at least $5,000,000.

 

(b)    Optional Conversion. If no Qualified Financing is consummated prior to the Maturity Date (as extended by the Holder from time to time) and as long as there remains outstanding principal or interest of this Note, the Holder shall have the right, within 30 days after the Maturity Date (as extended by the Holder from time to time) of this Note, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal and interest of this Note into Conversion Shares at the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg for a period of twenty (20) trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion (“Optional Conversion Price”). The number of Conversion Shares to be issued as a result of the optional conversion of the Note shall be calculated by dividing: (x) all or any portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal and interest of this Note, by (y) the Optional Conversion Price.

 

 

(c)    Mechanics of Holders Conversion. The conversion of this Note shall be conducted in the following manner:

 

(i)     Subject to Section 2(b) hereof, this Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issuance Date, by (A) submitting to the Company a Notice of Conversion in the form of Exhibit A (by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time) and (B) surrendering this Note at the principal office of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount so converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.  In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Company shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid, the Holder may not transfer this Note unless the Holder first physically surrenders this Note to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Holder (upon payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount of this Note.  The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal and interest of this Note represented by this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof. At such time as such conversion has been effected, the rights of the Holder of this Note as the Holder of such Note shall cease (with respect to the amount so converted), and the Person or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for the Common Stock are to be issued upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Common Stock represented thereby.

 

(ii)    As soon as possible after the conversion has been effected, the Company or acquirer shall deliver to the converting holder a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares issuable by reason of such conversion in such name or names and such denomination or denominations as the converting holder has specified.

 

(iii)   No fraction of shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on conversion. Upon any conversion of the entire outstanding principal of and interest on this Note, the number of shares or other securities issuable shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

 

(iv)   The issuance of certificates for Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the holder hereof in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Company or acquirer in connection with such conversion and the related issuance of Conversion Shares.

 

(v)    Neither the Company nor acquirer shall close its books against the transfer of this Note in any manner which interferes with the timely conversion of this Note. The Company shall assist and cooperate with any holder of this Note required to make any governmental filings or obtain any governmental approval prior to or in connection with the conversion of this Note (including, without limitation, making any filings required to be made by the Company).

 

(vi)   The Company or its acquirer shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of the common stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion hereunder, such number of shares of other type of capital securities of the Company or its acquirer issuable upon conversion. All Conversion Shares which are so issuable shall, when issued, be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges. The Company or its acquirer shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such Conversion Shares may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which such shares of capital stock are quoted.

 

 

3.      Adjustment to the Conversion Price.

 

(a)     Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. At the option of the Holder, the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the effectuation by the Company of a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Borrower is disposed of, or the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Company with or into any other Person or Persons when the Company is not the survivor shall be treated pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof. “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, trust or other entity or organization.

 

(b)     Adjustment Due to Merger, Consolidation, Etc. If, at any time when this Note is issued and outstanding, there shall be any merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, or other similar event, as a result of which shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of another class or classes of stock or securities of the Company or another entity, or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than in connection with a plan of complete liquidation of the Company, then the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive upon conversion of this Note, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon conversion, such stock, securities or assets which the Holder would have been entitled to receive in such transaction had this Note been converted in full immediately prior to such transaction (without regard to any limitations on conversion set forth herein), and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made 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 adjustment of the Conversion Price and of the number of shares of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the conversion hereof.

 

(c)     Purchase Rights. If, at any time when the Note is issued and outstanding, the Company issues any convertible securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property (the “Purchase Rights”) pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock, then the Holder of this Debenture will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such Holder could have acquired if such Holder had held the number of units of Conversion Shares acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion contained herein) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

 

4.       Transfer, Exchange and Replacement.

 

(a)     Transfer. This Note has not been and is not being registered under the provisions of the Act or any state securities laws and this Note may not be transferred prior to the end of the holding period applicable to sales under Rule 144 unless in accordance with applicable law and unless (1) the transferee is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act) and (2) the holder shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the Company, to the effect that this Note may be sold or transferred without registration under the Act. Prior to any such transfer, such transferee shall have represented in writing to the Company that such transferee has requested and received from the Company all information relating to the business, properties, operations, condition (financial or other), results of operations or prospects of the Company deemed relevant by such transferee, and that such transferee has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company concerning the foregoing. Upon surrender of any Note for registration of transfer or for exchange to the Company at its principal office, the Company at its sole expense will execute and deliver in exchange therefor a new Note or Notes, as the case may be, as requested by the holder or transferee, which aggregate principal amount is equal the unpaid principal amount of such Note, registered as such holder or transferee may request, dated so that there will be no loss of interest on the Note and otherwise of like tenor; provided that this Note may not be transferred by Holder to any Person other than Holder’s affiliates without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The issuance of new Notes shall be made without charge to the holder(s) of the surrendered Note for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Company in connection with such issuance, provided that each holder of the Note shall pay any transfer taxes associated therewith. The Company shall be entitled to regard the registered holder of this Note as the holder of the Note so registered for all purposes until the Company or its agent, as applicable, is required to record a transfer of this Note on its register.

 

 

(b)    Replacement. Upon notice to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of an indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Note, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Note of like tenor and date and in substantially the same form as this Note; provided, however, the Company shall not be obligated to re-issue a Note if the Holder contemporaneously requests the Company to convert such remaining principal amount and interest into Common Stock.
