RECITALS:
WHEREAS, Buyer provides
financial public relations and consulting services to companies worldwide and
has achieved success for its customers;
WHEREAS, Buyer is presently
working closely with Crown Equity Holdings, Inc. ("Crown Equity"), a majority

WHEREAS, on August 4, 2009,

common stock and certain preferred stock for all of the issued and outstanding
shares of TaxMasters, Inc. under Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue
Code (the “Share Exchange”);
WHEREAS, as a result of the Share
Exchange, TaxMasters become a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Seller.
WHEREAS, as a result of the
Share Exchange, Seller has become engaged in the business of assisting taxpayers
with matters at the Internal Revenue Service, especially the resolution of
disputes and assessments and the settlement of tax liabilities and Seller seeks
to cease its involvement in the financial public relations for other companies,
such as the services being provided by Crown Equity;
WHEREAS, Buyer is desirous of
acquiring the shares of Crown Equity common stock presently owned by Seller in
exchange for providing financial public relation services to
Seller;
WHEREAS, Seller is desirous of
using Buyer's services and is willing to transfer its shares of Crown Equity to
Buyer in exchange for Buyer's services; and
WHEREAS, the parties have
negotiated and have reached certain understandings and desire this agreement to
evidence and formalize such understandings.
NOW, THEREFORE, intending to
be legally bound and in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties have agreed, and do
hereby agree, as follows:
1. (a) Upon the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, Seller hereby agrees to
sell to Buyer, a total of 44,079,410 shares (the “Shares”) of the Common Stock
of Crown Equity Holdings, Inc. (“Crown Equity”) in consideration for advertising
program services to be provided to Seller for a 12 month period which Buyer will
provide immediately after the closing hereunder (the “PR Services”) which PR
Services are valued at $60,000. The Shares shall represent all the shares of
Crown Equity owed by Seller. The Shares shall be restricted securities as that
term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")
and shall bear the appropriate restrictive legends on the
certificate.
(b) Upon the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, Buyer hereby agrees to purchase from Seller, the Shares in
consideration for the PR Services valued at $60,000. The term of the PR
Services shall be for a period of twelve months commencing on the first business
day after the Closing (as defined below) (the “Service Period”).
(c)
The purchase and
sale of the Shares shall take place remotely via the exchange of documents and
signatures, at 10:00 a.m., on the date hereof, or at such other time and place
as Seller and Buyer mutually agree upon, orally or in writing (which time and
place are designated as the “Closing”).
(d) At
the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Seller one or more certificates
representing the Shares being purchased by Buyer, duly endorsed in blank or
accompanied by a duly executed assignment document at such Closing against the
delivery by Buyer of an agreement for the providing of PR Services for the
Service Period signed by Buyer in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Seller and its legal counsel (the “PR Service Agreement”).
(e) The
Shares being sold and purchased under this Agreement and the consideration for
such Shares are considered by all parties to be unique and that a failure
of Seller to sell, or for Buyer to pay the consideration
for, the Shares (assuming that all conditions precedent have been met), monetary
damages would be inadequate and therefore the Seller and the Buyer, and each of
them, expressly acknowledge that no remedy at law would be adequate and that any
party shall be entitled to a decree or order of specific performance directing
the sale and purchase as contemplated by this Agreement.
2.
Each party shall be obligated to close the purchase and sale
of the Shares upon the following conditions:
(a)

representations of the Buyer contained in Section 4 below shall be true and
correct, in all material respects, on and as of the date of
Closing.

knowledge:
(a)
The Shares are duly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable;
and
(b)
Seller has clear
legal title and beneficial ownership of the Shares and there is no restriction
on their sale or transfer of such Shares other than that imposed by securities
law restrictions; and
(c)
The Shares being sold are free and clear of any and all adverse claims and
any and all liens, encumbrances, pledges, hypothecations, and third-party
interests or participation; and
(d)
The Shares being sold are free of any claim or offset by Crown Equity;
and
(e) The
Shares are not subject to any prior contract, agreement or understanding for
their sale, transfer, or distribution or to any right of first refusal with
respect to the purchase thereof; and
(f)
Seller has no liability or obligation to pay any fees or
commissions to any broker, finder, or agent with respect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement for which Buyer could become liable or obligated;
and
(g)
The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and
the sales transactions contemplated hereby do not require the consent, authority
or approval of any other person or entity except such as have been
obtained. Seller has full power and authority (including full corporate
power and authority) to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its
obligations hereunder. This Agreement constitutes the valid and legal
obligation of Seller, enforceable in accordance with its terms and
conditions.
