FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BlueFire Equipment Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
promises to pay to the order of Tyson Rohde, or his permitted assigns, transferees and successors as provided herein (the "Holder")' or as the Holder may direct, at such location as the Holder may designate, One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) plus simple interest on such principal amount from the date of this Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note") at an annual interest rate equal to fifteen percent (15%).
Interest will be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days for the actual number of days elapsed from the date of this Note. The number of days used to compute the interest will include the first day but exclude the last day during which any principal is outstanding.
ARTICLE I.
THE NOTE
This Note is issued by the Company on April 1, 2011 (the "Issuance Date"). On April 1, 2011, the Holder transferred to the Company an aggregate amount of $100,000.00.
ARTICLE II.
PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYMENTS.
Section 2.01 The entire principal amount of this Note together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon will be due and payable on April 1, 2012 (the "Repayment Date") unless this Note has been previously extended by the mutual consent of the parties, or converted in accordance with Article III herein.
Section 2.02 The principal and interest on this Note will be payable in the lawful currency of the United States of America by wire transfer of immediately available funds and without set-off or counterclaim, free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future taxes, restrictions or conditions of any nature.
Section 2.03 All payments under this Note prior to demand or acceleration will be applied first, to any and all costs, expenses or charges then owed by the Company to the Holder, second, to accrued and unpaid interest, and third, to the unpaid principal balance. All payments so received after demand or acceleration will be applied in such manner as the Holder may determine in its sole and absolute discretion.

CONVERSION
Section 3.01 Upon written notice by the Holder to the Company, at the option of the Holder, the outstanding principal and interest due hereunder, may be converted into shares of the Company's capital stock. The number of shares of the Company's capital stock (calculated to the nearest whole share) to which Holder shall be entitled upon such conversion shall be equal to such number determined by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount and unpaid accrued interest thereon to be converted by (y) a conversion price to be mutually agreed upon by the Company and Holder at a later date, but one that shall not exceed any subsequent valuation of the price of the common stock per share. The shares of the Company's capital stock issuable upon conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 3.01 are hereinafter referred to as "Conversion Shares".
Section 3.02 In the event of conversion, the Holder will surrender this Note for conversion at the principal office of the Company. The Holder agrees to execute all necessary documents in connection with the conversion of this Note.
Section 3.03 The Company covenants and agrees that it will at all times have authorized and reserved, solely for the purpose of such possible conversion, out of its authorized but unissued shares, a sufficient number of shares to provide for the exercise in full of the conversion rights contained in this Note.
Section 3.04 This Note will be automatically canceled upon conversion. As soon as practicable after conversion of this Note, the Company at its expense will issue in the name of and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the Conversion Shares (bearing such legends as may be required by applicable state and federal securities laws in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company).
Section 3.05 Following conversion of the Note, in the event that the Company files a registration statement registering shares of the Company common stock on a form appropriate for the resale of shares by stockholders, the Holder shall have the right to have the Conversion Shares included in such registration statement, to the extent such shares are not already freely tradable.
