WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Shareholders are the holders of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of CTI (the “CTI Shares”);
WHEREAS, the Shareholders desire to acquire a controlling interest in the Company; and
WHEREAS, the Company is willing to issue shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) to the Shareholders in consideration for the acquisition by the Company of all of the CTI Shares from the Shareholders.
NOW, THEREFORE, for the mutual consideration set out herein, the parties agree as follows:
1. Exchange of Shares.
(a) Issuance of Shares by the Company. On and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company will issue to the Shareholders, in exchange for all of the CTI Shares, which represent all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of CTI, an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”). The number of Shares to be issued to each Shareholder will be as set forth opposite each Shareholder’s name on Schedule A.
(b) Transfer of CTI Shares by the Shareholders. On and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Shareholders will transfer to the Company all of the CTI Shares in exchange for the Shares.
(c) Closing. The issuance of the Shares to the Shareholder and the transfer of the CTI Shares to the Company will take place at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held at the office of Louis A. Brilleman, Esq., 1140 Avenue of the Americas, 9th Floor, New York, New York 10036 (or at such other place as the parties may agree to) as soon as possible after or contemporaneously with the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to closing set forth in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement (the “Closing Date”).
(d) Consideration. As consideration for the Shares to be acquired by the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall allot and issue, on the Closing Date, the Shares to the Shareholders. Each Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that the Shares are being issued pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Each Shareholder agrees to abide by all applicable resale restrictions and holding periods imposed by all applicable securities laws in all jurisdictions relevant to the issuance of the Shares to the Shareholder (the “Applicable Securities Laws”). The certificate(s) representing the Shares to be issued on Closing will be endorsed with the following legend, pursuant to the Securities Act, to reflect that the Shares will be issued to the Shareholder pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act:
-1-
“NONE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “1933 ACT”), OR ANY U.S. STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND, UNLESS SO REGISTERED, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN THE UNITED STATES (AS DEFINED HEREIN) OR TO U.S. PERSONS EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S OR REGULATION D UNDER THE 1933 ACT, PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE 1933 ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE 1933 ACT AND IN EACH CASE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. “UNITED STATES” AND “U.S. PERSON” ARE AS DEFINED BY REGULATION S UNDER THE 1933 ACT.”
(e) Restricted Securities. Each Shareholder acknowledges that the Shares issued pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement will have such holding periods as are required under all Applicable Securities Laws, and, as a result, may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, except pursuant to an effective registration statement or prospectus, or pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration or prospectus requirements of Applicable Securities Laws and in each case only in accordance with all Applicable Securities Laws.
(f) Exemptions. Each Shareholder acknowledges that the Company has advised such Shareholder that it is issuing the Shares to the Shareholder under exemptions from the prospectus and registration requirements of Applicable Securities Laws and, as a consequence, certain protections, rights and remedies provided by Applicable Securities Laws, including statutory rights of rescission or damages, will not be available to the Shareholder. To evidence the Shareholder’s eligibility for such exemptions, the Shareholder agrees to deliver a fully completed and executed U.S. Accredited Investor Questionnaire (the “US Questionnaire”), in the form attached hereto as Schedule B, to the Company, and agrees that the representations and warranties set out in the US Questionnaire, each as executed by the Shareholder, will be true and complete on the Closing Date. It is understood that the exemption is valid only to the extent that the Shareholders are accredited, except that up to 35 of the Shareholders being issued Shares hereunder may be unaccredited.
