CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

U.S. $1,200,000

June 26, 2009

 

 

Original Investment Date (determined pursuant to Rule 144(d)(3)(ii):

See Exhibit A to Exchange Agreement

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Quest Minerals & Mining Corp., a Utah corporation (the “ Maker ”), hereby promises to pay to Interstellar Holdings, LLC, or its successors and assigns (the “ Payee ”), at its address at 1446 Redding Road, Fairfield CT, 06824, or to such other address as Payee shall provide in writing to the Maker for such purpose, a principal sum of ONE MILLION TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS (U.S. $1,200,000).  The aggregate principal amount outstanding under this Note will be conclusively evidenced by the schedule annexed as Exhibit B hereto (the “ Loan Schedule ”).  The entire principal amount hereunder shall be due and payable in full on June 26, 2011 (the “ Maturity Date ”), or on such earlier date as such principal amount may earlier become due and payable pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

1.   Interest Rate .  Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount of this Convertible Promissory Note (the “ Note ”) at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum from the date of the first making of the loan for such principal amount until such unpaid principal amount is paid in full or earlier converted into shares (the “ Shares ”) of the Maker’s common stock, $0.001 par value (the “ Common Stock ”) in accordance with the terms hereof.  Interest hereunder shall be paid on the Maturity Date or on such earlier date as the principal amount under this Note becomes due and payable or is converted in accordance with the terms hereof and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

 

2.   Conversion of Principal and Interest .  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Payee, at its sole option, may deliver to the Maker a notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “ Conversion Notice ”) and an updated Loan Schedule, at any time and from time to time after the date hereof and prior to the payment of the principal amount and all accrued interest thereon (the date of the delivery of a Conversion Notice, a “ Conversion Date ”), to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, for a number of Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the dollar amount of such outstanding principal amount of this Note plus the accrued and unpaid interest thereon being converted by the Conversion Price (as defined in Section 14).  Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder in an amount equal to the applicable conversion, which shall be evidenced by entries set forth in the Conversion Notice and the Loan Schedule.

3.   Certain Conversion Limitations .

 

(a)   The Payee may not convert an outstanding principal amount of this Note or accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would result in the Payee, together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (as defined in Section 14) and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 4.999% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.  Since the Payee will not be obligated to report to the Maker the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would result in the issuance of Shares in excess of 4.999% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock without regard to any other shares which may be beneficially owned by the Payee or an affiliate thereof, the Payee shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether and the extent to which the restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder.  The provisions of this Section may be waived by Payee upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Maker.

 

(b)   The Payee may not convert an outstanding principal amount of this Note or accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would result in the Payee, together with any affiliate thereof, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 9.999% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.  Since the Payee will not be obligated to report to the Maker the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would result in the issuance of Shares in excess of 9.999% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock without regard to any other shares which may be beneficially owned by the Payee or an affiliate thereof, the Payee shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether and the extent to which the restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder.  The provisions of this Section may be waived by Payee upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Maker.

 

(c)   The Payee may not convert an outstanding principal amount of this Note or accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the extent such conversion would require the Maker to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the Maker’s then sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock.

 

4.   Deliveries .  Not later than three Trading Days (as defined in Section 14) after any Conversion Date (the “ Delivery Date ”), the Maker will deliver to the Payee (i) a certificate or certificates representing the number of Shares being acquired upon the conversion of the principal amount of this Note and any interest accrued thereunder being converted pursuant to the Conversion Notice (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3 hereof), and (ii) an endorsement by the Maker of the Loan Schedule acknowledging the remaining outstanding principal amount of this Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon not converted (an “ Endorsement ”).  The Maker’s delivery to the Payee of stocks certificates in accordance clause (i) above shall be Maker’s conclusive endorsement of the remaining outstanding principal amount of this Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon not converted as set forth in the Loan Schedule.
