<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On February 4, 2014, GlobalWise Investments, Inc., a Nevada
corporation (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;), issued two convertible promissory notes in a maximum aggregate principal amount of $350,000
(the &ldquo;Convertible Notes&rdquo;) to two accredited investors who are associated with each other&nbsp; (the &ldquo;Convertible
Note Investors&rdquo;). The Company received a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes in the amount
of $110,000. The Convertible Notes mature on September 30, 2014 (the &ldquo;Maturity Date&rdquo;) and bear interest at an annual
rate of interest of 10 percent until maturity. Each Note Investor has a right, in their sole discretion, to convert the Convertible
Note into shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (&ldquo;Shares&rdquo;) under certain circumstances
at a conversion rate of $0.08 per Share. If either Convertible Note has not been fully repaid by the Company by the Maturity Date
or converted into Shares at the election of the Convertible Note Investors prior to the Maturity Date, then such Convertible Note
will accrue interest at the annual rate of 15% from the Maturity Date until the date the Convertible Note is repaid in full. Under
the terms of the Convertible Notes, the Company agreed to seek shareholder approval to increase the number of authorized Shares
of the Company by at least 20,000,000 Shares on or before September 30, 2014. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Convertible
Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes. The form of the Convertible Notes is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Report,
and the summary description of the terms of the Convertible Notes contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to
Exhibit 10.1.</P>
