For value received, MusclePharm Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay to Ryan Drexler or his assigns (the “Holder”) the principal sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), together with interest on the outstanding principal amount at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum. Interest shall commence on the Issue Date (as defined below) and shall continue and accrue daily at the applicable rate on the outstanding principal amount until paid in full in accordance with this note (the “Note”). Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days for the actual number of days elapsed. Accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid by the Company to the Holder in cash on the Payment Date, provided that any interest not paid when due shall be capitalized and added to the principal amount of this Note and begin to bear interest on such date along with all other unpaid principal, capitalized interest and other capitalized obligations hereunder. The “Issue Date” shall be July 6, 2017.
 
This Note is secured by a lien on and security interest in all of the assets and properties of the Company, as described in the Second Amended and Restated Security Agreement of even date herewith by and between the Company and the Holder (the “Security Agreement”).
 
WHEREAS, after considering the Company’s short-term cash needs and other available sources of funding, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that the issuance and sale of this Note is necessary and advisable to ensure the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern and thereby protect the interests of the Company and its stockholders;
 
This Note is subject to the following terms and conditions:

Unless earlier due and payable as provided in Section 2, all outstanding principal and any accrued but unpaid interest under this Note (whether or not that interest has been capitalized) (the “Repayment Amount”) shall be due and payable on demand of the Holder (the “Payment Date”). Demand for payment hereunder shall be made by notice in writing, delivered by overnight courier to the undersigned at 4701 Irontron Street Building A, Denver, Co 80219 or sent by email to Bill.Bush@musclepharm.com or by fax to 800/490-7165 (with such demand being deemed made and effective one (1) business day after being sent via overnight courier, and effective on the same day it was sent (or, if not sent on a business day, on the following business day) if sent via email or fax), setting out details of the amount outstanding and the appropriate method of payment.

The Company promises to pay all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in connection with the collection or enforcement of this Note or any obligation hereunder, including without limitation during or in the context of any bankruptcy, receivership, trusteeship, reorganization or insolvency proceeding or other proceeding under any other law for the relief of, or relating to, debtors, now or hereafter in effect, and all such amounts shall be payable on demand (or, if the Holder is prevented by applicable law from making demand, as and when incurred by the Holder) and, if not paid when due, shall be capitalized and become part of the principal amount of this Note, and interest shall accrue thereon as set forth for other principal amounts under this Note.
 
13. Loss of Note.

14. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under this Note shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Holder shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal amount remaining owed under this Note or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal amount, refunded to the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Holder exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Holder may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of this Note.
 
15. Indemnification. The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify (but only to the extent of and out of Company assets) the Holder against all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the Holder in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, before or by any court or any administrative or legislative body or authority, in which the Holder is involved, as a party or otherwise, or with which the Holder may be threatened, arising in connection with this Note, the Prior Notes or the Security Agreement (each, an “Action”), except to the extent the same has been finally adjudicated to constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Holder or a breach by the Holder of this Note, the Prior Notes or the Security Agreement. Promptly after receipt by the Holder of notice of the commencement or threatened commencement against it of any third party Action, the Holder will notify the Company. The Company will be entitled to assume the defense of the Action unless the Holder shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may exist between the Company and the Holder in conducting the defense of the Action. If the Company assumes the defense of any Action in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it will not be liable to the Holder for any legal or other expenses subsequently separately incurred by the Holder in connection with the defense of such Action. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of a third-party Action effected without its written consent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld.
 
16. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Note.
