Investments, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;), issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $100,000
(the &ldquo;Convertible Note&rdquo;) to an accredited investor (the &ldquo;Note Investor&rdquo;). The Convertible Note matures
on December 31, 2015 (the &ldquo;Maturity Date&rdquo;) and bears interest at an annual rate of interest of 10 percent until maturity,
with interest payable quarterly. The 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 under certain circumstances at a conversion rate of $0.08 per
Share. If the 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 Investor prior to the Maturity Date, then such Convertible Note will accrue interest at the annual rate
of 12% from the Maturity Date until the date the Convertible Note is repaid in full. Any interest not paid quarterly will also
accrue interest at the annual rate of 12%. Under the terms of the Convertible Note, the Company agreed to seek shareholder approval
to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company by at least 25,000,000 shares on or before September 30, 2014. The Company
intends to use the proceeds of the Convertible Note for working capital, general corporate purposes, and debt repayment. The form
of the Convertible Note and related Subscription Agreement are incorporated as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2 to this Report, and the summary
description of the terms of the Convertible Note contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1 and
10.2.</FONT></P>
