Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement


On September 8, 2017, Genesis Financial, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Capital Stock Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with EPOINT Payment Corp., a Delaware corporation ("EPOINT"). The anticipated target closing date is no later than December 31, 2017, or such earlier date as may be determined by the parties.  


Brief Description of the terms and conditions of the Agreement:


Under the Exchange Agreement, the Company is to acquire 100% of the outstanding capital stock of EPOINT.  EPOINT will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  The transaction is structured as a tax-free reorganization and exempt from the registration or qualification under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").


Prior to closing, the Company will implement a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Company Common Stock") on a twenty shares for one share (20:1) basis.  


In exchange for the sale and transfer of all of their capital holdings in EPOINT, the Company undertook to issue at closing to the EPOINT security holders 8,231,256 post-reverse split Company Common Stock.  The Company will also issue  Company Common Stock purchase warrants in exchange for the EPOINT outstanding common stock warrants. It is anticipated that post closing the former EPOINT security shareholders will hold approximately 80% of the issued and outstanding Company Common Stock. The exact number of shares and warrants may vary based on EPOINT's financing plans prior to the anticipated closing date.


Additionally, prior to closing, the Sub intends to enter into loan agreements pursuant to which it will issue Sub promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $3.5 million scheduled to mature in December 2018 and bearing interest at 10% per annum. It is anticipated that these loans will provide that the principal and interest thereunder will, unless converted into Sub common shares prior to closing at the specified $2.50 price per share, be assumed by the Company at closing. These loans will also be convertible, at the option of the holder, into Company Common Stock at $2.50 per share or upon any subsequent public offering of Company Common Stock at a per share rate of 70% of the price per share at such offering or, in the absence of such offering, at a per share price equal to 70% of the trading price of the Parent Company Common Stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the maturity date.


Prior to closing, EPOINT security holders will execute a consent agreement approving the terms and conditions of the Exchange Agreement.


The shares of the Company Common Stock and warrants to be issued to the shareholders of EPOINT upon the closing of the Exchange Agreement will not be registered under the Act, or under the securities laws of any state in the United States, and will be issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration under the Act.


The Exchange Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of each of the parties. The consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Exchange Agreement is subject to various closing conditions. Either the Company or EPOINT may terminate the Exchange Agreement if the closing does not occur on, or before December 31, 2017.


THE FOREGOING SUMMARY IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY THE FULL TEXT OF THE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT ATTACHED HERETO AS EXHIBIT 2.0, AND SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH SUCH AGREEMENT, WHICH IS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE HEREIN.
