Exhibit 10.2

EXCHANGE AGREEMENT, CONSENT, AND REPRESENTATIONS

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I understand that CannaPharmaRx, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is offering to exchange restricted Common Shares for common shares of CannaPharmaRx, Inc. (“CPI-CO”), a Colorado corporation, to the shareholders of CPI-CO pursuant to a Plan of Merger (“Plan of Merger”) attached hereto as Exhibit A and which is incorporated herein by this reference.

As a Shareholder of CPI-CO, I hereby consent to the Plan of Merger, and

I hereby offer to exchange all of my shares of CPI-CO, as shown on the transfer records of CPI-CO for equivalent number of restricted shares of common stock of the Company (the “Shares”) and tender all my Shares of CPI-CO herewith, on a one for one basis and upon acceptance by you, agree to become a shareholder of the Company. In order to induce the Company to accept my offer, I advise you as follows; and acknowledge:

1. Corporate Documents. Receipt of copies of Articles, Bylaws, and audited financial statements of the Company and such other documents as I have requested, I hereby acknowledge that I have received the documents including the Plan of Merger (as may be supplemented from time to time) relating to the Company and that I have carefully read the information and that I understand all of the material contained therein, and agree to the terms, and understand the risk factors as described therein.

2. Availability of Information. I hereby acknowledge that the Company has made available to me the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from the Company and any other person or entity acting on its behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of the Plan of Merger Exchange Agreement, the financial statements and related information of the Company and the 2014 10-K of the Company and the information contained in the corporate documents, and to obtain any additional information, to the extent the Company possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense, necessary to verify the accuracy of the information provided by the Company and any other person or entity acting on its behalf.

3. Representations and Warranties. I represent and warrant to the Company (and understand that it is relying upon the accuracy and completeness of such representations and warranties in connection with the availability of an exemption for the offer and exchange of the Shares from the registration requirements of applicable federal and state securities laws) that:

(a) RESTRICTED SECURITIES.

(I) I understand that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or any state securities laws.

(II) I understand that if this exchange agreement is accepted and the Shares are issued to me, I cannot sell or otherwise dispose of the Shares unless the Shares are


registered under the Act or the state securities laws or exemptions therefrom are available (and consequently, that I must bear the economic risk of the investment for an indefinite period of time):

(III) I understand that the Company has no obligation now or at any time to register the Shares under the Act or the state securities laws or obtain exemptions therefrom.

(IV) I understand that the Company will restrict the transfer of the Shares in accordance with the foregoing representations.

(V) There is a limited public market for the Shares of the Company and there is no certainty that a more liquid market will ever develop or be maintained. There can be no assurance that I will be able to sell or dispose of the Shares. Moreover, no assignment, sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of the Shares can be made other than in accordance with all applicable securities laws. It is understood that a transferee may at a minimum be required to fulfill the investor suitability requirements established by the Company, or registration may be required.

(b) LEGEND.

I agree that any certificate representing the Shares will contain and be endorsed with the following, or a substantially equivalent, LEGEND:

“This share certificate has been acquired pursuant to an investment representation by the holder and shall not be sold, pledged, hypothecated or donated or otherwise transferred except upon the issuance of a favorable opinion by its counsel and the submission to the Company of other evidence satisfactory to and as required by counsel to the Company, that any such transfer will not violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws. These Shares are not and have not been registered in any jurisdiction.”

(c) OWN ACCOUNT.

I am the only party in interest with respect to this exchange offer, and I am acquiring the Shares for my own account for long-term investment only, and not with an intent to resell, fractionalize, divide, or redistribute all or any part of my interest to any other person.

(d) AGE: CITIZENSHIP.

I am at least twenty-one years old and a citizen of the United States.

(e) ACCURACY OF INFORMATION.

All information which I have provided to the Company concerning my financial position and knowledge of financial and business matters is correct and complete as of the date set forth

 

2


at the end hereof, and if there should be any material change in such information prior to acceptance of this exchange offer by the Company, I will immediately provide the Company with such information.

4. Exchange Procedure. I understand that this exchange is subject to each of the following terms and conditions:

(a) The Company may reject this exchange for legal reasons, and this exchange shall become binding upon the Company only when accepted, in writing, by the Company.

(b) This offer may not be withdrawn by me.

(c) The share certificates to be issued and delivered pursuant to this exchange will be issued in the name of and delivered to the undersigned.

5. Suitability. I hereby warrant and represent:

(a) That I can afford a complete loss of the investment and can afford to hold the securities being received hereunder for an indefinite period of time,

(b) That I consider this investment a suitable investment,

(c) That I am sophisticated and knowledgeable and have had prior experience in financial matters and investments, and

(d) The exchange is subject to the terms and conditions of the Exchange Agreement.

6. Acknowledgement of Risks. I have been furnished and have carefully read the Plan of Merger and information relating to the Company, including this Exchange Agreement. I am aware that:

(a) There are substantial risks incident to the ownership of Shares from the Company, and such investment is speculative and involves a high degree of risk of loss by me of my entire investment in the Company.

(b) No federal or state agency has passed upon the Shares or made any finding or determination concerning the fairness of this investment.

(c) The books and records of the Company will be reasonably available for inspection by me and/or my investment advisors, if any, at the Company’s place of business.

(d) All assumptions and projections set forth in any documents provided by the Company have been included therein for purposes of illustration only, and no assurance is given that actual results will correspond with the results contemplated by the various assumptions set forth therein.

(e) Prior to the completion of the exchange, CPI-CO has a very limited operating history. CPI-CO is in the development stage, and its proposed operations are subject to all of the risk inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including a limited operating history. The unlikelihood of the success of the Company must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the formation and operation of a new business and the competitive environment in which the Company will operate.

 

3


7. Receipt of Advice. I acknowledge that I have been advised to consult my own attorney and investment advisor concerning the investment.

8. Restrictions on Transfer. I acknowledge that the investment in the Company is an illiquid investment. In particular, I recognize that:

(a) Due to restrictions described below, the lack of any market liquid existing for these Shares, in the event I should attempt to sell my Shares in the Company, my investment will be highly illiquid and, probably must be held indefinitely.

(b) I must bear the economic risk of investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time, since the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and issuance is made in reliance upon Rules 501-506 of Regulation D under the Act. Therefore, the Shares cannot be offered, sold, transferred, pledged, or hypothecated to any person unless either they are subsequently registered under said Act or an exemption from such registration is available and the favorable opinion of counsel for the Company to that effect is obtained, which is not anticipated. Further, unless said Shares are registered with the securities commission of the state in which offered and sold, I may not resell, hypothecate, transfer, assign or make other disposition of said Shares except in a transaction exempt or exempted from the registration requirement of the securities act of such state, and that the specific approval of such sales by the securities regulatory body of the state is required in some states.

(c) My right to transfer my Shares will also be restricted by the legend endorsed on the certificates.

9. Access to Information. I represent and warrant to the Company that:

(a) I have carefully reviewed and understand the risks of, and other considerations relating to, the Plan of Merger and exchange of the Shares, including the risks of total loss in the event the Company’s business is unsuccessful.

(b) I and my investment advisors, if any, have been furnished all materials relating to the Company and its proposed activities and anything which they have requested and have been afforded the opportunity to obtain any additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of any representations about the Company.

 

4


(c) The Company has answered all inquiries that I and my investment advisors, if any, have put to it concerning the Company and its proposed activities and the Exchange Agreement and exchange for the Shares.

(d) Neither I nor my investment advisors, if any, have been furnished any offering literature other than the documents attached as exhibits thereto and I and my investment advisors, if any, have relied only on the information contained in such exhibits and the information, as described in subparagraphs (b) and (c) above, furnished or made available to them by the Company.

(e) I am acquiring the Shares for my own account, as principal, for investment purposes only and not with a view to the resale or distribution of all or any part of such Shares, and that I have no present intention, agreement or arrangement to divide my participation with others or to resell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Shares subscribed for unless and until I determine, at some future date, that changed circumstances, not in contemplation at the time of this exchange, makes such disposition advisable;

(f) I, the undersigned, if on behalf of a corporation, partnership, trust, or other form of business entity, affirm that: it is authorized and otherwise duly qualified to purchase and hold Shares in the Company; recognize that the information under the caption as set forth in (a) above related to investments by an individual and does not address the federal income tax consequences of an investment by any of the aforementioned entities and have obtained such additional tax advice that I have deemed necessary; such entity has its principal place of business as set forth below; and such entity has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring Shares in the Company.

(g) I have adequate means of providing for my current needs and personal contingencies and have no need for liquidity in this investment; and

(h) The information provided by the Company is confidential and non-public and I agree that all such information shall be kept in confidence by it and neither used by it to its personal benefit (other than in connection with its exchange for the Shares) nor disclosed to any third party for any reason; provided, however, that this obligation shall not apply to any such information which (i) is part of the public knowledge or literature and readily accessible at the date hereof; (ii) becomes part of the public knowledge or literature and readily accessible by publication (except as a result of a breach of these provisions); or (iii) is received from third parties (except those parties who disclose such information in violation of any confidentiality agreements including, without limitation, any Exchange Agreement they may have with the Company).

10. Binding Agreement. I hereby adopt, accept, and agree to be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Exchange Agreement, and by all of the terms and conditions of the Articles of Incorporation, and amendments thereto, and By-Laws of the Company. Upon acceptance of this Exchange Agreement by the Company and issuance of the Shares, I shall become a stockholder for all purposes.

 

5


11. Agreement to Be Bound. The Exchange Agreement, upon acceptance by the Company, shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns of mine.

12. Indemnification. I further represent and warrant:

(a) I hereby indemnify the Company and hold the Company harmless from and against any and all liability, damage, cost, or expense incurred on account of or arising out of:

(I) Any inaccuracy in my declarations, representations, and warranties hereinabove set forth;

(II) The disposition of any of the Shares which I will receive, contrary to my foregoing declarations, representations, and warranties; and

(III) Any action, suit or proceeding based upon (1) the claim that said declarations, representations, or warranties were inaccurate or misleading or otherwise cause for obtaining damages or redress from the Company; or (2) the disposition of any of the Shares or any part thereof.

13. Governing Law.

Exhibit A

Plan of Merger


AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

This Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (this “AGREEMENT”) is made and entered into as of April 21, 2015 (the “EFFECTIVE DATE”), by and among CannaPharmaRx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CANNA DELAWARE”), CannaPharmaRX, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“CPHR”), and CPHR Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canna Delaware (“ACQUISITION SUB”). Each of Canna Delaware, CPHR and Acquisition Sub is referred to herein individually as a “PARTY,” or collectively as the “PARTIES.”

RECITALS

A. On May 15, 2014, CPHR entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and among Canna Delaware (formerly known as Golden Dragon Holding Co.), CPHR and Acquisition Sub (the “ORIGINAL AGREEMENT”).

B. On December 30, 2014, the Board of Directors of Canna Delaware voted to terminate the Original Agreement, but said agreement was never formally terminated in writing.

C. The respective Boards of Directors of Canna Delaware, CPHR and Acquisition Sub now desire to consummate the transactions contemplated by the original Agreement, modified as provided herein and in connection therewith, have each approved and adopted this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case after making a determination that this Agreement and such transactions are advisable and fair to, and in the best interests of, such corporation and its stockholders.

D. Canna Delaware and CPHR intend to effect a transaction (the “MERGER”), pursuant to which Acquisition Sub will merge with and into CPHR and CPHR will survive, as a result of which all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of CPHR (the “CPHR SHARES”) will be converted into shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Canna Delaware upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

E. The Parties intend that the Merger contemplated by this Agreement will qualify as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “TAX CODE”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties and mutual covenants herein made, the parties hereby agree to the foregoing and as follows:

SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the attached SCHEDULE 1.

SECTION 2. THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT. The Original Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety, as follows.


SECTION 3. THE MERGER.

(a) EFFECTING THE MERGER. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement and in accordance with Section 252 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended (the “DGCL”) and Section 7-111-106.5 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act of the State of Colorado, as amended (the “CBCA”), at the Effective Time (as hereinafter defined): (i) Acquisition Sub shall be merged with and into CPHR; (ii) the separate corporate existence of Acquisition Sub shall thereupon cease and CPHR will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canna Delaware (sometimes referred to herein as the “SURVIVING SUBSIDIARY”); (iii) all the properties, rights and privileges, and powers of Acquisition Sub shall vest in the Surviving Subsidiary, and all debts, liabilities and duties of each of Acquisition Sub and CPHR shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Subsidiary; and (iv) each share of common stock of Acquisition Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding and shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of CPHR’s common stock.

(b) EFFECTIVE TIME.

(i) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, the parties shall duly prepare, execute and file with respect to the Merger (a) a certificate of merger (the “CERTIFICATE OF MERGER”) complying with Section 252(c) of the DGCL with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and (b) a statement of merger (the “STATEMENT OF MERGER”) complying with Section 7-90-203.7 of the Colorado Corporations and Associations Act, as amended, of the State of Colorado (the “CCAA”), with the Secretary of State of the State of Colorado. The Merger shall become effective upon the filing of the Certificate of Merger and the Statement of Merger (the “EFFECTIVE TIME”), or at such later time that the parties hereto shall have agreed upon and designated in such filings in accordance with applicable law as the effective time of the Merger.

(ii) The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the DGCL, including without limitation, Section 259 of the DGCL, and in the CCAA, including, without limitation, Section 7-90-204 of the CCAA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from the Effective Time, all the properties, rights and privileges, and powers of Acquisition Sub shall vest in the Surviving Subsidiary, and all debts, liabilities and duties of each of Acquisition Sub and CPHR shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Subsidiary

(c) EFFECT ON CAPITAL STOCK.

(i) CONVERSION OF CPHR SHARES. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, each CPHR Share issued and outstanding on the Closing Date shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of CPHR, Canna Delaware, Acquisition Sub, or the holders of CPHR Shares as of the Closing Date (each, an “ORIGINAL HOLDER,” and collectively, the “ORIGINAL HOLDERS”), be converted into and will become one share of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable common stock of Canna Delaware (the “CANNA DELAWARE COMMON STOCK”). All shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of CPHR Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall (i) contain a restricted securities legend in compliance with the Securities Act and (ii) be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of

 

12


all rights pertaining to such CPHR Shares. There shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of CPHR of the CPHR Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(ii) FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the conversion of CPHR Shares into Canna Delaware Common Stock, and any right to receive a fractional share will be rounded to the nearest whole share.

(iii) CANCELLATION OF CPHR SHARES. At the Effective Time, the CPHR Shares will be deemed canceled and retired and will cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate for CPHR Shares will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except for dissenters’ rights as required by applicable law and except for the right to receive, upon surrender of an original stock certificate representing CPHR Shares, a stock certificate for the same number of shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock, bearing any necessary or appropriate restrictive legend.

(iv) STATUS OF CANNA DELAWARE SHARES. Each share of capital stock of Canna Delaware issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding following the consummation of the Merger.

(v) LOST, STOLEN OR DESTROYED CERTIFICATES. If any certificate evidencing CPHR Shares shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Canna Delaware, the posting of an indemnity bond, in such reasonable amount as Canna Delaware or the transfer agent may direct, as collateral security against any claim that may be made with respect to the certificate, Canna Delaware will issue in exchange for the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate the applicable number of shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock.

(vi) At the Effective Time, each share of common stock of Acquisition Sub (“ACQUISITION SUB STOCK”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Subsidiary. Each stock certificate evidencing ownership of any shares of Acquisition Sub Stock shall, at the Effective Time, evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving Subsidiary.

(d) REORGANIZATION. The Parties intend to adopt this Agreement and the Merger as a plan of reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Tax Code. The shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock issued in the Merger will be issued solely in exchange for CPHR Shares, and no other transaction other than the Merger represents, provides for or is intended to be an adjustment to the consideration paid for the CPHR Shares. No consideration that could constitute “other property” within the meaning of Section 356(b) of the Tax Code is being transferred by Canna Delaware for CPHR Shares in the Merger. The parties shall not take a position on any tax return inconsistent with this Section 3(d).

(e) FURTHER ACTIONS. If at any time after the Effective Time, Canna Delaware or the Surviving Subsidiary reasonably determines that any deeds, assignments, or instruments,

 

13


or conformations of transfer are necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the officers and directors of Canna Delaware and the Surviving Subsidiary are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary or desirable actions.

(f) PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

(i) In the event that, following the Effective Time, Canna Delaware proposes to file a registration statement with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act covering the public offering of any of its stock (other than a registration relating solely to the issuance of securities by Canna Delaware pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar benefit plan or a Securities Act Rule 145 transaction), Canna Delaware shall promptly give each Original Holder written notice of such registration. Canna Delaware shall use all reasonable efforts to cause to be registered all of the shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock that each such Original Holder has requested to be included in such registration.

(ii) Canna Delaware shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 3(f) before or after the effective date of such registration, regardless of whether any Original Holder has elected to include shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock in such registration.

(iii) All expenses (other than underwriting discounts and commissions and stock transfer taxes and fees) incurred in connection with a registration pursuant to Section 3(f) including, without limitation, registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for Canna Delaware shall be borne by Canna Delaware.

(iv) If a registration of which Canna Delaware gives notice under this Section 3(f) is for an underwritten offering, then Canna Delaware shall so advise the Original Holders. In such event, the right of any Original Holder to include such Original Holder’s shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Original Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Original Holder’s shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Original Holders proposing to distribute their shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriters advise Canna Delaware that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock to be underwritten or exclusion of the shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock, then the managing underwriters may exclude the shares of the Original Holders from the registration and the underwriting based on any reasonable methodology. If any Original Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Original Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to Canna Delaware and the managing underwriters. Any shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration.

(g) The covenants contained in (f) above shall survive the closing and shall be enforceable whether or not contained in a separate agreement.

 

14


SECTION 4. CLOSING.

(a) CLOSING DATE. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the closing of the Merger (the “CLOSING”) shall be effective as soon as all of the conditions hereof are met and any document deliveries take place at the offices of Canna Delaware, on April 30, 2015, at 10:00 a.m. EST, or such other time, date or place as Canna Delaware and CPHR may otherwise agree (the “CLOSING DATE”).

(b) DOCUMENTS TO BE DELIVERED BY CANNA DELAWARE. On or before the Closing, Canna Delaware will deliver or cause to be delivered to CPHR:

(a) ORGANIZATION. CPHR is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Colorado and has all requisite power and authority and possesses all necessary governmental approvals necessary to own, lease and operate its properties, to carry on its business as now being conducted, to execute and deliver this Agreement and the agreements contemplated herein, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. CPHR is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions in which its ownership of property or the character of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not reasonably be expected to have an Adverse Effect. Certified copies of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of CPHR, as amended to date, each as currently in effect, have been made available to Canna Delaware, are complete and correct, and no amendments have been made thereto or have been authorized since the date thereof. CPHR is not in violation of any of the provisions of its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.

(i) by mutual written consent of Canna Delaware and CPHR;

 

29


(ii) by either Canna Delaware or CPHR if any governmental entity shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action permanently enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the Merger and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and nonappealable;

(iii) by either Canna Delaware or CPHR, so long as such Party is not in breach hereunder, if the Merger shall not have been consummated on or before June 30, 2015 (other than as a result of the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform its obligations under this Agreement required to be performed at, or prior to, the Effective Time of the Merger, in which event such party may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this provision for a period of ten days following such party’s cure of such failure); provided, however, that if either Canna Delaware or CPHR requests an extension of the Closing after this date and the other Party consents in writing, then neither Party may terminate this Agreement under this provision until the expiration of such extension period;

(v) by CPHR, if there has been a material breach of this Agreement on the part of Canna Delaware of its obligations hereunder or if any of its representations or warranties contained herein shall be materially inaccurate and such breach or inaccuracy is not curable or, if curable, is not cured within ten (10) days after written notice of such breach is given by CPHR to Canna Delaware.

Nothing contained in this Section 15 shall relieve any Party for any breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement.

SECTION 16. DISSENTING SHARES. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, including Section 3, shares of CPHR common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who has properly exercised appraisal rights of such shares of CPHR common stock in accordance with Part 2 of Article 113 of the CBCA (such shares being referred to collectively as the “DISSENTING SHARES” until such time as such holder fails to perfect or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the CBCA with respect to such shares) shall not be converted into a right to receive shares of Canna Delaware Common Stock, but instead shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by Section 7-113-102 of the CBCA; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or loses such holder’s right to appraisal pursuant to Section 7-113-102 of the CBCA or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 7-113-102 of the CBCA, such shares of

 

30


CPHR common stock shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive Canna Delaware Common Stock in accordance with Section 3, without interest thereon, upon surrender of such certificates formerly representing such shares pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement. CPHR shall provide Canna Delaware prompt written notice of any demands received by CPHR for appraisal of CPHR common shares, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to CPHR prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the CBCA that relates to such demand, and Canna Delaware shall have the opportunity and right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands.

(b) PRESS RELEASES AND PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS.

(c) NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement will not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Any unauthorized assignment is void.

(h) SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement that is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining provisions hereof in such jurisdiction or rendering that or any other provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction.

(i) EXPENSES. Each Party will pay all fees and expenses (including, without limitation, legal and accounting fees and expenses) incurred by such Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
