The Investor is duly incorporated or organized and validly existing in the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization and has all requisite power and authority to purchase and hold the securities issuable hereunder. The decision to invest and the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Investor, the performance by such Investor of its obligations hereunder and the consummation by such Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized and requires no other proceedings on the part of the Investor. The Investor has the right, power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and all related instruments. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Investor and, assuming the execution and delivery hereof and acceptance thereof by the Company, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Investor, enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

Section 3.2 Accredited Investor. The Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act.

Section 3.3 Investment Experience; Access; Investigation.

(a) Access to Information.

(d) Ability to Bear Economic Risk. The Investor understands and acknowledges that an investment in the Convertible Notes and Conversion Shares involves a high degree of risk. The Investor acknowledges that it has the ability to bear the economic risk of its investment pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) Investment; No Distribution. The Investor is acquiring the Convertible Notes and will acquire the Conversion Shares solely for the Investor’s own account for investment purposes as a principal and not with a view to the resale or distribution of all or any part thereof. The Investor is aware that there may be legal and practical limits on the Investor’s ability to sell or dispose of the Convertible Notes or any of the Conversion Shares and, therefore, that the Investor must bear the economic risk of its investment for an indefinite period of time.

Prior to any proposed transfer of any Convertible Note or any Conversion Shares, Investor shall, among other things, give Written Notice to the Company of its intention to effect such transfer, generally identifying the transferee and describing the manner of the proposed transfer and, if requested by the Company, accompanied by (i) investment representations by the transferee similar to those made by Investor in this Article III and (ii) an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the proposed transfer may be effected without registration under the Securities Act and without registration or qualification under applicable state or other securities laws.

EXHIBIT A

THIS NOTE, AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE (THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED UNTIL (i) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT” OR THE “SECURITIES ACT”) SHALL HAVE BECOME EFFECTIVE WITH RESPECT THERETO OR (ii) RECEIPT BY THE COMPANY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH PROPOSED TRANSFER NOR IS IN VIOLATION OF ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS LEGEND SHALL BE ENDORSED UPON ANY NOTE ISSUED IN EXCHANGE FOR THIS NOTE AND ANY SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE (EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED BELOW).

FORM OF CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

[$__________]	[__________] to be Effective [__________]
[Note #___]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ▇▇▇▇▇ Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of [_______________], and/or permitted assigns (the “Holder”), the aggregate principal amount of [_______________] ([$___________________])(“Principal”), together with interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

1.	Note Amount. This Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”, “Promissory Note” or “Agreement”) evidences amounts payable by the Company to the Holder in connection with an Advance made pursuant to that certain Non-Revolving Line of Credit Agreement dated on or around August 30, 2015, but effective August 28, 2015, by and between the Company and the Holder (the “Line of Credit”). Certain capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Line of Credit and this Note shall be subject in all cases to the terms and conditions of the Line of Credit.

2.	Payment Terms. The Company promises to pay to Holder the balance of Principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest (which shall accrue until the Maturity Date) on October 1, 2016 (the “Maturity Date”), unless this Note is earlier prepaid as herein provided or earlier converted into Common Stock (as hereinafter defined) of the Company pursuant to Sections 4 hereof. All payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. Payment shall be credited first to the accrued interest then due and payable and the remainder to Principal.

Secured Convertible Promissory Note

[Note #____]

Page 1 of 10

Interest. Interest on the outstanding portion of Principal of this Note shall accrue at a rate of six percent (6%) per annum. All past-due principal and interest (which failure to pay such amounts shall be defined herein as an “Event of Default”) shall bear interest at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum until paid in full (the “Default Rate”). All computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year for actual days elapsed.

Notwithstanding any provision in this Note, the total liability for payments of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including all charges, fees, exactions, or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest, shall not exceed the limit imposed by the usury laws of the State of Texas or the applicable laws of the United States of America, whichever shall be higher (the “Maximum Rate”).

In the event the total liability for payments of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including, without limitation, all charges, fees, exactions or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest, which for any month or other interest payment period exceeds the Maximum Rate, all sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest for the period in question (and without further agreement or notice by, among or to the Holder the undersigned) shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance, with the same force and effect as though the undersigned had specifically designated such excess sums to be so applied to the reduction of the principal balance and the Holder had agreed to accept such sums as a premium-free prepayment of principal; provided, however, that the Holder may, at any time and from time to time, elect, by notice in writing to the undersigned, to waive, reduce or limit the collection of any sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest rather than accept such sums as a prepayment of the principal balance. The undersigned does not intend or expect to pay nor does the Holder intend or expect to charge, accept or collect any interest under this Note greater than the Maximum Rate.

If any payment of principal or interest on this Note shall become due on a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which national banks are not open for business, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. “Business Day” means a day other than (i) a Saturday, (ii) a Sunday or (iii) a day on which commercial banks in Houston, Texas, are authorized or required to be closed for business.

Holder’s Option to Convert this Note.

	a.	At any time prior to the payment in full by the Company of this Note, the Holder shall have the option to convert the unpaid balance (Principal and accrued and unpaid interest, in each case subject to Section 4(l) and 4(m)) on this Note (or any portion thereof) into shares of Common Stock (the “Shares” and the “Common Stock”) of the Company (the “Conversion Option”) at the Conversion Price (each a “Conversion”). The “Conversion Price” shall equal $1.50 per Share;

	b.	In order to exercise this Conversion Option, the Holder shall surrender this Promissory Note to the Company, accompanied by written notice of its intentions to exercise this Conversion Option, which notice shall set forth the amount of this Promissory Note to be converted, and the Shares due, which shall be in the form of Exhibit A, attached hereto (“Notice of Conversion”). The date that the Company receives the Notice of Conversion shall be defined as the “Conversion Date.” Within ten (10) Business Days of the Company’s receipt of the Notice of Conversion and this Note, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder, written confirmation that the Shares have been issued in the name of the Holder (the “Share Delivery Deadline”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 4, following conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full amount of the Note is being converted (in which event this Note shall be delivered to the Company following conversion thereof) or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Notice of Conversion) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal and interest converted and/or paid and/or adjusted (as the case may be) and the dates of such conversions and/or payments and/or adjustments (as the case may be) 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 conversion;

[Note #____]

Page 2 of 10

	c.	If for any reason (including the operation of the adjustment provisions set forth in this Note), the Conversion Price on any date of Conversion of this Note shall not be lawful and adequate consideration for the issuance of the relevant Shares, then the Company shall take such steps as are necessary (including the amendment of its certificate of incorporation so as to reduce the par value of the Common Stock) to cause such Conversion Price to be adequate and lawful consideration on the date the payment thereof is due, but if the Company shall fail to take such steps, then the Company acknowledges that the Holder shall have been damaged by the Company in an amount equal to an amount, which, when added to the total Conversion Price for the relevant Shares, would equal lawful and adequate consideration for the issuance of such Shares, and the Company irrevocably agrees that if the Holder shall then forgive the right to recover such damages from the Company, such forgiveness shall constitute, and Company shall accept such forgiveness as, additional lawful consideration for the issuance of the relevant Shares;

	d.	The Company shall at all times take any and all additional actions as are necessary to maintain the required authority to issue the Shares to the Holder, in the event the Holder exercises its rights under the Conversion Option;

	e.	Payment to Company prior to Holder’s delivery of a Notice of Conversion shall terminate Holder’s option to convert;

	f.	Conversion calculations pursuant to this Section 4, shall be rounded to the nearest whole share of Common Stock, and no fractional shares shall be issuable by the Company upon conversion of this Note. Conversion of this Note in full shall be deemed payment in full of this Note and this Note shall thereupon be cancelled;

	g.	If the Company at any time or from time to time on or after the effective date of the issuance of this Note (the “Original Issuance Date”) effects a subdivision of its outstanding Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased, and conversely, if the Company at any time or from time to time on or after the Original Issuance Date combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased;

	h.	All Shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon Conversion of this Note will, upon issuance by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Note, be validly issued, free from all taxes and liens with respect to the issuance thereof (other than those created by the holders), free from all pre-emptive or similar rights and be fully paid and non-assessable;

	i.	On the date of any Conversion, all rights of any Holder with respect to the amount of this Note converted, will terminate, except only for the rights of any such Holder to receive certificates (if applicable) for the number of Shares of Common Stock which this Note has been Converted;

	j.	Unless the Shares are eligible to be issued as free trading shares pursuant to the requirements of Rule 144 or otherwise, which shall be determined by the Company in its reasonable discretion, prior to the issuance date of such Shares, such Shares shall be issued as restricted shares of Common Stock; and

	k.	The Company shall not be required to pay any tax allocated or attributed to Holder which may be payable in respect to any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon Conversion in a name other than that in which the shares of the Note so converted were registered, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid. The Company shall withhold from any payment due whatsoever in connection with the Note any and all required withholdings and/or taxes the Company, in its sole discretion deems reasonable or necessary, absent an opinion from Holder’s accountant or legal counsel, acceptable to the Company in its sole determination, that such withholdings and/or taxes are not required to be withheld by the Company.

	l.

		Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Conversion of this Note, and any other Notes issued in connection with the Line of Credit (“Other Notes”) shall not (i) exceed 19.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the date of the Line of Credit, (ii) exceed 19.9% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to the date of the Line of Credit, in each of subsections (i) and (ii) before the issuance of the Common Stock upon conversion of this Note or the Other Notes, or (iii) otherwise exceed such number of shares of Common Stock that would violate applicable listing rules of the NYSE MKT in the event the Company’s shareholders do not approve the issuance of the Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note or the Other Notes, in each of (i) through (iii), only to the extent required by applicable NYSE MKT rules and guidance (the “Share Cap”). In the event the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of this Note or the Other Notes exceeds the Share Cap, then this Note and the Other Notes, or applicable portions thereof shall cease being convertible, and the Company shall instead repay such Note and Other Notes (or portions thereof) in cash, or if required, the Company shall first obtain the Stockholder Approval (as defined in the Line of Credit).

5.	Redemption. This Note may be redeemed by the Company by payment of the entire Principal and interest outstanding under this Note in cash to Holder.

		a.	This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without penalty provided that the Company shall provide the Holder a minimum of thirty (30) days prior written notice before the date of the Company’s planned prepayment.

		b.	Any partial prepayment shall be applied first to any accrued interest and then to any principal Loan amount outstanding.

(k)	the Company shall be in material default of any of its debt obligations which separately or in aggregate have a value in default of more than $50,000, and such default shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days following the receipt by the Company of a notice of default in connection therewith by the applicable debt holder(s).

In case any one or more Events of Default shall occur and be continuing, Holder may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise. In case of a default in the payment of any principal of or premium, if any, or interest on this Note, the Company will pay to Holder such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable cost and expenses of collection, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements. No course of dealing and no delay on the part of Holder in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Note upon Holder shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Certain Waivers by the Company. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Note, the Company and every endorser or guarantor, if any, of this Note waive presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note, and assent to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of collateral available to Holder, if any, and to the addition or release of any other party or person primarily or secondarily liable.
