10% CONVERTIBLE NOTE DUE 9 MONTHS FROM ORIGINAL ISSUANCE DATE
THIS NOTE is a duly authorized note issued by National Automation Services, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada (the "Company"), designated as its 10% Convertible Notes (the "Notes") due in 9 months from the Original Issuance Date (the "Maturity Date"), issued on February 28, 2014 (the "Original Issuance Date") in an aggregate principal amount of fifty Thousand Dollars (US $50,000.00).
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company promises to pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ with the personal residence located at the address listed below (the "Holder") the principal sum of fifty Thousand Dollars (US $50,000.00), on or prior to the Maturity Date and to pay interest to the Holder on the principal sum at a flat rate of 10% of the principal amount of the Note. Interest shall accrue daily commencing on the Original Issuance Date until payment in full of the principal sum is made. Interest is to be paid to the Holder on either the Maturity Date or upon termination or completion of the Note. The Holder retains the option to convert the interest into shares at the closing market price of the Issuance Date anniversary in lieu of cash payment and agrees to provide at least (10) days’ notice prior to Issuance Date. However, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that the converted shares under this option will not be issued until the next anniversary of the Issuance Date. At such time they will be free trading under the provision of Section 2 hereof. No notice is required to receive cash interest payments.
Holder retains 6 months of "Call" protection, protection from the Company prepaying all or a portion of the Note before Maturity Date. This Call protection is the interest that is payable at a minimum and of 6 months of calculated interest. The Holder is further provided the right to request the Note to be paid in full should any subsequent debt financing be made available that allows the payment of this debt instrument while still providing the Company sufficient capital to operate fully. Nothing in this right prevents the Company from allowing the Note to go to full Maturity.
Company also agrees to retain ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ at least as officer or Board member, at the Company's option, with all the privileges and compensation of such position for the duration of the Note as a measure of oversight.
If at any time after the Original Issuance Date an Event of Default has occurred, the Holder shall be entitled to remedies under Section 2 hereof. This is not a Public Offering and is being offered to accredited investors only.
This Note is subject to the following additional provisions:
Section 1. Events of Default and Remedies.
I. "Event of Default," when used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason and whether any such event shall be voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court, or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):
(a) Any default in the payment of the principal of or interest on this Note as and when the same shall become due and payable either at the Maturity Date, by acceleration, conversion? or otherwise;

II. Remedies If any Event of Default occurs and continues, then the Holder may, by notice to the Company, accelerate all of the payments due under this Note by declaring all amounts so due under this Note, whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are waived by the Company, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled by the Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. This shall include, but not be limited to the right to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief without the requirement of posting any bond or undertaking.
(a) The Holder may thereupon proceed to protect and enforce its rights either by suit in equity and/or by action at law or by other appropriate proceedings whether for the specific performance (to the extent permitted by law) of any covenant or agreement contained in this Note or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Note, and proceed to enforce the payment of this Note. The Company agrees to pay reasonable costs of collection incurred by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and its counsel upon a default and failure of the Company to pay the Note in a timely manner.
(b) Except as expressly provided for herein, the Company specifically (i) waives all rights it may have (A) to notice of nonpayment, notice of default, demand, presentment, protest and notice of protest with respect to any of the obligations hereunder or the shares of Common Stock and (B) notice of acceptance hereof or of any other action taken in reliance hereon, notice and opportunity to be heard before the exercise by the Holder of the remedies of self-help, set-off, or other summary procedures and all other demands and notices of any type or description except for cure periods; and (ii) releases the Holder, its officers, directors, agents, employees and attorneys from all claims for loss or damage caused by any act or failure to act on the part of the Holder, its officers, attorneys, agents, directors and employees except for gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(c) As a non-exclusive remedy, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Holder may convert the remaining principal amount of the Notes and accrued interest thereon at the Conversion Price upon giving a Notice of Conversion to the Company. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company shall not have the right to object to the conversion and it shall release the shares of Common Stock so elected.
Section 2. Conversion.
(a) Upon Maturity or at the discretion of the Holder of this Note any accrued interest thereon shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at a twenty-five Percent (25%) discount to the lowest closing market price in the previous 10 days of trading to the date of Notice of Conversion provided to the Company. (the "Conversion Price"), at the option of the Holder, in whole or in part Shares issued upon conversion shall become free trading stock as promulgated by the rules and regulations of the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The date on which such conversion is to be effected (the "Conversion Date"). The Holder shall effect conversions by surrendering the Note to be converted to the Company, together with the form of notice attached hereto as Exhibit A ("Notice of Conversion"). The Notice of Conversion shall specify the amount of principal and accrued interest to be converted. The Notice of Conversion, once given, shall be irrevocable.

Upon conversion in full of the Note or upon payment in full on or before the Maturity Date, the Purchaser shall return the Note to the Company for cancellation. Upon maturity of this Note, the debt owed by the Company is considered to comply with the Securities Act of 1933 and Holder, upon conversion, can seek and render a legal opinion from qualified legal counsel to have the restrictions lifted from the security.
(b) The Company shall use reasonable efforts to deliver to the Holder not later than ten (10) Business Days after the Conversion Date, (i) a certificate or certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion of this Note, and once this Note so converted in part shall have been surrendered to the Company, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a Note in the principal amount, if any, of this Note not then converted; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note until this Note is either delivered for conversion to the Company or the Holder notifies the Company that this Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and provides an affidavit of loss and an agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company indemnifying the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such loss, theft or destruction.
(c) No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon a conversion hereunder and the number of shares to be issued shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole share.
(d) The issuance of a certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
