Exchange of Stock (a) The Werke Shareholders agree to transfer to WICK, and WICK agrees to purchase from the Werke Shareholders, all of the Werke Shareholders' right, title and interest in the WERKE Stock, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of WERKE, free and clear of all mortgages, liens, pledges, security interests, restrictions, encumbrances, or adverse claims of any nature.
(b) At the Closing (as defined in Section 2 below), upon surrender by the Werke Shareholders of the certificates evidencing the WERKE Stock, duly endorsed for transfer to WICK or accompanied by stock powers executed in blank by the Werke Shareholders, WICK will cause 11,000,000 shares (subject to adjustment for fractionalized shares as set forth below) of the common voting stock, par value $.001 of WICK (the "WICK Stock") to be issued to the Werke Shareholders (or their designees), in full satisfaction of any right or interest which each Shareholder held in the WERKE Stock. The WICK Stock will be issued to the Werke Shareholders on a pro rata basis, in the same proportion as the percentage of their ownership interest in WERKE, as set forth on EXHIBIT A (subject to adjustment as set forth below), at the Closing. As a result of the exchange of the WERKE Stock for the WICK Stock, WERKE will become a wholly owned subsidiary of WICK.
(c) EXHIBIT A, may be amended by WERKE at or prior to the Closing in order to give effect to the conversion by STPF of its interest in STWP into equity in WERKE and to reflect other changes in the capital structure of WERKE which may be caused by investment into WERKE by third parties prior to the Closing. Any additional shareholders which are added to EXHIBIT A, at or prior to Closing will agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, either directly or by signing the Agreement to Appoint Shareholders Representative attached hereto as EXHIBIT B, however, their failure to do so prior to Closing will not effect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement as between the present parties. In no event shall WICK be required to issue any additional securities, other than as set forth herein, as a result of any changes in the capital structure of WERKE at or prior to the Closing.
