The Evtec Ordinary Shares shall be sold with all rights attaching to them at Closing or subsequently, including the rights to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid on Evtec Ordinary Shares after Closing. BLBX shall not be obliged to complete the purchase and sale of the Evtec Ordinary Shares unless the purchase and sale of all issued and outstanding Evtec Ordinary Shares is completed simultaneously. Each Seller hereby waives any rights of preemption or other restrictions on transfer in respect of the Evtec Ordinary Shares, whether conferred by the Articles of Association or otherwise, in respect of the transfers of the Evtec Ordinary Shares contemplated by this Agreement and approves such transfer for the purposes of the Articles of Association or otherwise. The purchase and sale of the Evtec Ordinary Shares pursuant to this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Acquisition.”

1.2 Closing. Unless this Agreement has been terminated and the Contemplated Transactions have been abandoned pursuant to Section 8.1, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article 7, the consummation of the Acquisition (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of Xxxxxxxx, PC, 500 Winstead Building, 0000 X. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, as soon as possible (but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days) after satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article 7 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each such condition), or at such other time, date and place as Evtec and BLBX may mutually agree in writing. The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

1.3 BLBX Name Change. Unless otherwise determined by Evtec, BLBX and Evtec will take any and all action necessary to change BLBX’s name to “Evtec Holdings, Inc.” effective immediately following the Closing.

1.4 Evtec Securities.

(a) Evtec Ordinary Shares. Each Evtec Ordinary Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing will be sold to BLBX by the Seller that owns such Evtec Ordinary Share in consideration for such number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of BLBX Common Stock as is equal to the Exchange Ratio (hereinafter defined), rounded to the nearest whole share of BLBX Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of BLBX Common Stock issuable to such Seller) (the “Acquisition Consideration”)

(b) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. The Exchange Ratio will be calculated in the manner described in the definition of “Exchange Ratio” on Exhibit A hereto and will be appropriately adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into shares in the Evtec Ordinary Share Capital or BLBX Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to shares in the Evtec Ordinary Share Capital or BLBX Common Stock occurring after the date hereof and prior to the Closing

(c) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of BLBX Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Acquisition, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares of BLBX Common Stock will be issued. Sellers will not be entitled to any voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or distributions or other rights as a stockholder of BLBX with respect to any such fractional shares of BLBX Common Stock that would have otherwise been issued to such Seller.

1.5 Contingent Value Rights.

(a) Each holder of BLBX Common Stock of record as of immediately prior to the Closing shall be entitled to (i) one (1) contractual contingent value right (a “CVR”) issued by BLBX, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the CVR Agreement in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto (the “CVR Agreement”), for each share of BLBX Common Stock held by such holder.

(b) At or prior to the Closing, BLBX and Evtec each shall authorize and duly adopt, execute and deliver, and BLBX will ensure that the Exchange Agent (in its capacity as Rights Agent (as defined in the CVR Agreements)) executes and delivers, the CVR Agreements, subject to any reasonable revisions to the CVR Agreements that are requested by the Exchange Agent (provided that such revisions are not, individually or in the aggregate, detrimental or adverse, taken as a whole, to any holder of a CVR). BLBX and Evtec shall cooperate, including by making changes to the forms of CVR Agreements, as necessary to ensure that the CVRs are not subject to registration under the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws.

(c) All costs and expenses of issuing, administering and fulfilling the CVRs and CVR Agreements will be borne solely or reimbursable to BLBX by Blackbox Operating. To the extent any such costs are borne by BLBX, they shall be assumed by Blackbox Operating pursuant to Section 6.21.

1.6 Preliminary Consents and Associated Acknowledgments of Sellers. Sellers hereby, on a several and not joint basis consent and agree for the purpose of each applicable provision of the Articles of Association and otherwise, to Evtec entering into this Agreement and taking all such actions as may be required for the purpose of effecting the Contemplated Transactions.

1.7 Delivery of Acquisition Consideration.

(a) Exchange Agent.

(b) Exchange Procedures. On or prior to the Closing, each Seller, as a condition to receiving the applicable Acquisition Consideration, will deliver to the Exchange Agent (i) a duly executed stock transfer form in favor of BLBX in customary form approved by BLBX in respect of the Evtec Ordinary Shares held by such Seller, and (ii) in respect of all Evtec Ordinary Shares held by such Seller, certificate(s) evidencing title to such shares or an indemnity for any lost certificates made in favor of Evtec and BLBX in a form reasonably acceptable to BLBX. As promptly as practicable after receipt by the Exchange Agent from a Seller of the aforementioned stock transfer form and Evtec Ordinary Share certificate(s) (or indemnity agreement, as applicable), together with such other customary documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent or BLBX, such Seller shall receive, from the Exchange Agent, in exchange therefor, a number of whole shares of BLBX Common Stock represented, at such Seller’s election, by book entry or certificated shares equal to the number of whole shares of BLBX Common Stock that such Seller has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.4.

(c) Transfers of Ownership. If any shares of BLBX Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than that in which the Evtec Ordinary Share certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Evtec Ordinary Share certificate so surrendered will be in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such exchange will have paid to BLBX or any Person designated by it any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the issuance of the shares of BLBX Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Evtec Ordinary Share certificate surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of BLBX or any agent designated by it that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

To the extent any amounts are withheld in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and are paid over to the applicable Governmental Body, such amounts will be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

1.8 Power of Attorney.

(a) Appointment and Powers. Each Seller hereby nominates and appoints BLBX, with effect from the Closing, to be its lawful agent, proxy and attorney, and grants to BLBX a power-of-attorney, with full power to exercise all rights pertaining to any Evtec Ordinary Shares registered in the name of such Seller as BLBX in its absolute discretion sees fit, including (but not limited to):

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to this Section 6.3(b), each Party agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) as promptly as practicable, prepare and file all filings (if any) and give all notices (if any) required to be made and given by such Party in connection with the Contemplated Transactions; (ii) obtain each Consent (if any) required to be obtained (pursuant to any applicable Legal Requirement or Contract, or otherwise) by such Party in connection with the Contemplated Transactions; and (iii) lift any restraint, injunction or other legal bar to the Contemplated Transactions.

6.4 Director Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) From the Closing through the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Closing Date, BLBX shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof, or who becomes prior to the Closing, a director or officer of Evtec or BLBX (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”), against all claims, losses, Liabilities, damages, judgments, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the D&O Indemnified Party is or was a director or officer of Evtec, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirement, and Evtec’s or BLBX Company’s Organizational Documents, as applicable. Each D&O Indemnified Party will, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements and Evtec’s or BLBX Company’s Organizational Documents, as applicable, be entitled to advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation from each of the applicable BLBX Company and Evtec, jointly and severally, upon receipt by BLBX or Evtec from the D&O Indemnified Party of a request therefor; provided that any person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking, to the extent then required by applicable Legal Requirement, to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.

(b) From and after the Closing, BLBX shall maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (at Evtec’s expense) for BLBX and its Subsidiaries, including Evtec and its Subsidiaries, with an effective date as of the Closing Date, on commercially available terms and conditions and with coverage limits customary for U.S. public companies similarly situated to BLBX. In addition, prior to the Closing, BLBX shall purchase and fully pre-pay (at Evtec’s expense up to $255,000, with any remaining expense borne by BLBX) a “tail” endorsement for BLBX’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and BLBX’s existing fiduciary liability insurance policies, in each case, that provides a six-year extended reporting period from and after the Closing for claims first made against an individual insured for any alleged or actual wrongful act(s) that occurred prior to the Closing (including in connection with this Agreement) (the “D&O Tail”). In the event the D&O Tail is not available to be purchased from BLBX’s existing directors’ and officers’ and/or fiduciary liability insurer(s) then BLBX shall obtain and fully pre-pay (at Evtec’s expense) the premium for directors’ and officers’ and fiduciary liability insurance policies which would be the equivalent of the D&O Tail with coverage that is substantially equivalent to and in any event not less favorable than the BLBX’s current existing directors’ and officers’ and fiduciary liability insurance and which cannot be cancelled for any reason. Additionally, Evtec will obtain run-off “tail” endorsements to its current directors’ and officers’ insurance policies (or runoff or “tail” policies of at least the same coverage containing terms and conditions no less advantageous to the current and all former directors and officers of Evtec) with respect to acts or failures to act prior to the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Evtec shall not be required to pay or reimburse BLBX for more than $255,000 for any D&O Tail referred to in this Section 6.4(b). BLBX shall pay all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by the Persons referred to in this Section 6.4 in connection with their enforcement of their rights provided in this Section 6.4 but only if and to the extent that such Persons are successful on the merits of such enforcement action.

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT – Page 29

(c) The provisions of this Section 6.4 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to the current and former officers and directors of Evtec and BLBX by law, charter, statute, bylaw or agreement, and shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the D&O Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives.

(d) This Section 6.4 is intended to be (i) for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the D&O Indemnified Parties, their heirs and personal representatives and shall be binding on Evtec, BLBX and their respective successors and assigns, (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any D&O Indemnified Party may have by contract or otherwise, including indemnification agreements that BLBX or Evtec have entered into with any of their respective directors or officers, and (iii) may not be amended, altered or repealed after the Closing without the prior written consent of the affected D&O Indemnified Party (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, such amendment, alteration or repeal prior to the Closing shall be governed by Section 9.2).

(e) In the event BLBX or Evtec or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of BLBX or Evtec, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4.

The failure by a Party to give a notification required under this Section 6.5 or any delay in providing such a required notification shall not be treated as a breach of covenant for the purposes of Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.3(a), as applicable, unless such failure or delay results in material prejudice to another Party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of BLBX and Evtec may make public statements in response to specific questions by the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences or financial analyst conference calls, so long as any such statements are consistent with previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made by BLBX or Evtec in compliance with this Section 6.6 and such statements do not result in the requirement to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Information Statement and are not deemed to be a “free-writing prospectus” as such term is defined under the Securities Act. .

6.7 Conveyance Taxes. Each Party will cooperate in the preparation, execution and filing of all returns, questionnaires, applications or other documents regarding any real property transfer or gains, sales, use, transfer, value added, stock transfer and stamp Taxes, any transfer, recording, registration and other fees, and any similar Taxes which become payable in connection with the Acquisition that are required or permitted to be filed on or before the Closing or in relation to stamp Taxes in respect of the transfers of (or agreement to transfer) the Evtec Ordinary Shares after the Closing.

(a) by mutual written consent of BLBX and Evtec duly authorized by each of their respective boards of directors;

(b) by either Evtec or BLBX, after the End Date (hereinafter defined), if the Acquisition has not been consummated (provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b) will not be available to any Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Acquisition to occur on or before such date; and provided, further, that, in the event that the SEC has not declared effective under the Securities Act the Registration Statement by the date which is sixty (60) days prior to the End Date, each of BLBX and Evtec shall be entitled to extend the period for termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) for an additional sixty (60) days);

(e) by BLBX upon breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements on the part of Evtec or Sellers set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Evtec or Sellers will have become inaccurate, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(b) would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach or as of the time such representation or warranty will have become inaccurate; provided if such breach or inaccuracy is curable by Evtec or Sellers, then this Agreement will not terminate pursuant to this Section 8.1(e) as a result of such particular breach or inaccuracy unless the breach or inaccuracy remains uncured as of the thirtieth (30th) day following the date of written notice given by BLBX to Evtec of such breach or inaccuracy and its intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(e);

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT – Page 39

(f) by BLBX, if there will have occurred any Evtec Material Adverse Effect since the date hereof; provided, however, such termination shall only be effective if such Evtec Material Adverse Effect, if curable, is not cured within thirty (30) days following the date of written notice given by BLBX to Evtec of such Evtec Material Adverse Effect and its intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(f); or

(g) by Evtec, if there will have occurred any BLBX Material Adverse Effect since the date hereof; provided, however, such termination shall only be effective if such BLBX Material Adverse Effect, if curable, is not cured within thirty (30) days following the date of written notice given by Evtec to BLBX of the occurrence of such BLBX Material Adverse Effect and its intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(g).

8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, this Agreement will forthwith become void and there will be no Liability on the part of any Party or any of its Affiliates, directors, officers or stockholders except (i) as set forth in Sections 8.2 and 8.3 and (ii) for any Liability for any knowing breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement. No termination of this Agreement will affect the obligations of the Parties contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, all of which obligations will, in addition to this Article 8 and in addition to Article 9, survive termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

8.3 Expenses; Termination Fees.

(a) Except as set forth in this Section 8.3 and/or the Binding LOI Amendment, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions will be paid by the Party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Acquisition is consummated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) BLBX and Evtec shall share equally all fees and expenses, other than attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses, incurred (i) in relation to the filings by the Parties under any filing requirement under any foreign antitrust Legal Requirement applicable to this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, (ii) by engagement of the Exchange Agent and (iii) in relation to the printing (e.g., paid to a financial printer) and filing with the SEC of the Registration Statement (including any financial statements and exhibits) and any amendments or supplements thereto; and (B) Evtec shall be solely responsible for all listing fees payable to Nasdaq in connection with the listing of the shares of BLBX Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Acquisition and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of BLBX incurred in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the above, Evtec shall be responsible for up to $175,000 of BLBX legal fees and expenses as set forth in the Binding LOI Amendment, regardless of whether or not this Agreement is terminated. Each of the Parties acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the Contemplated Transactions, without which, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that all fees and expenses incurred or to be incurred by BLBX in connection with the Contemplated Transactions and preparing, negotiating and entering into this Agreement and the performance of its obligations under this Agreement shall be paid by BLBX in cash at or prior to the Closing.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(g), BLBX will pay to Evtec (by wire transfer of immediately available funds), within two Business Days after such termination, a termination fee (the “BLBX Termination Fee”) in an amount in cash equal to $500,000, plus, all fees and expenses (up to $250,000) incurred by Evtec in connection with the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions.

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT – Page 40

(c) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(e) or Section 8.1(f), Evtec will pay to BLBX (by wire transfer of immediately available funds), within two Business Days after such termination, a termination fee (the “Evtec Termination Fee”) in an amount in cash equal to $500,000, plus, all fees and expenses (up to $250,000) incurred by BLBX in connection with the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions.

(d) In the event that Evtec shall be entitled to receive the BLBX Termination Fee or BLBX shall be entitled to receive the Evtec Termination Fee, such fee is not a penalty but shall be liquidated damages in a reasonable amount for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by Evtec and Sellers, on the one hand, BLBX, on the other hand, or in connection with the matter forming the basis for such termination. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, other than as provided in this Section 8.3(d), the Parties agree that the payments contemplated by this Section 8.3 represent the sole and exclusive remedies of Evtec and Sellers, on the one hand, and BLBX, on the other hand, in respect of a termination pursuant to Section 8.1 under circumstances requiring the payment of the BLBX Termination Fee or the Evtec Termination Fee, as applicable.

(e) If BLBX or Evtec, as applicable, fails to pay when due any amount payable BLBX or Evtec, as applicable, under this Section 8.3, then (i) BLBX or Evtec will, as applicable, reimburse Evtec and Sellers, on the one hand, and BLBX, on the other hand, for all costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with the collection of such overdue amount and the enforcement by the Parties of their rights under this Section 8.3, and (ii) BLBX or Evtec, as applicable, will pay to Evtec and Sellers, on the one hand, or BLBX, on the other hand, interest on such overdue amount (for the period commencing as of the date such overdue amount was originally required to be paid and ending on the date such overdue amount is actually paid to the Parties entitled thereto in full) at a rate per annum equal to the “prime rate” (as announced by Bank of America or any successor thereto) in effect on the date such overdue amount was originally required to be paid.

9.2 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by action taken in writing by or on behalf of the respective boards of directors of BLBX and Evtec; provided that no representation, warranty or covenant in this Agreement with respect to a Seller may be amended in a manner adverse to a Seller unless such amendment applies to all Sellers in the same fashion and the Parties obtain the prior written approval of such amendment from the Seller Majority; provided further that any amendment or waiver of the provisions of Section 6.4 after the Closing which adversely affects the D&O Indemnified Parties must be approved in writing by the D&O Indemnified Parties; and provided further that, after approval of the Acquisition by the Stockholder Consent no amendment may be made which by Legal Requirements requires further approval by such stockholders without such further approval.

9.3 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

9.4 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Contemplated Transactions is not affected in any manner adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Contemplated Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT – Page 42

9.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Option Agreement and the CVR Agreements constitute the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

9.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon: (a) BLBX and its successors and assigns (if any); (b) Evtec and its successors and assigns (if any); and (c) Sellers and their respective heirs, successors and assigns (if any). This Agreement will inure to the benefit of: (i) BLBX; (ii) Evtec; (iii) Sellers; and (iv) the respective heirs, successors and assigns (if any) of the foregoing. Neither BLBX nor Evtec may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of both the other and a Seller Majority, and no Seller may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of BLBX, Evtec and a Seller Majority (calculated by disregarding the shares in the Evtec Share Capital held by the assigning Seller). Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 9.6 shall be null and void ab initio.

9.7 Parties in Interest. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party, and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or will confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, other than Section 6.4 (which is intended to be for the benefit of D&O Indemnified Parties and may be enforced by D&O Indemnified Parties). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, BLBX shall have the right to enforce this Agreement directly against any Seller in the event of a breach by such Seller of this Agreement.

9.8 Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in the exercise of any right hereunder will impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. At any time prior to the Closing, any Party may, with respect to any other Party, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any such extension or waiver will be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the Party or Parties to be bound.

9.9 Remedies Cumulative; Specific Performance. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. Each Party agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the other Party of any covenant, obligation or other provision set forth in this Agreement: (a) such first Party will be entitled, without any proof of actual damages (and in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it) to: (i) a decree or order of specific performance or mandamus to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant, obligation or other provision; and (ii) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach; and (b) such first Party will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such decree, order or injunction or in connection with any related action or Legal Proceeding.

9.10 Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Nevada, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT – Page 43

(b) The Parties hereto agree that any Legal Proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions shall be brought in the state and federal courts sitting in Nevada and any state appellate court therefrom located in Nevada. Each Party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court in respect of any legal or equitable Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions, or relating to enforcement of any of the terms of this Agreement, and hereby waives, and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any such Legal Proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that the Legal Proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Legal Proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each Party hereto agrees that notice or the service of process in any Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions shall be properly served or delivered if delivered in the manner contemplated by Section 5.1 or in any other manner permitted by applicable Legal Requirement.

(c) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS.

9.11 Counterparts and Exchanges by Electronic Transmission or Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts and by facsimile or electronic (i.e., PDF) transmission, each of which when executed will be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together will constitute one and the same agreement.

9.12 Attorney Fees. In any action at law or suit in equity to enforce this Agreement or the rights of any of the Parties hereunder, the prevailing party in such action or suit will be entitled to receive a reasonable sum for its attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred in such action or suit upon the judgment in such action or suit becoming final and nonappealable

9.13 Cooperation. Each Party agrees to cooperate fully with the other Parties hereto and to execute and deliver such further documents, certificates, agreements and instruments and to take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the other Parties hereto to evidence or reflect the Contemplated Transactions and to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions.

9.14 Limited Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of Evtec and BLBX contained in this Agreement or any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate at the Closing.

9.15 Construction.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the context requires: the singular number will include the plural, and vice versa; the masculine gender will include the feminine and neuter genders; the feminine gender will include the masculine and neuter genders; and the neuter gender will include masculine and feminine genders.

(b) The Parties agree that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party will not be applied in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT – Page 44

(c) As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, will not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

(d) Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to “Sections,” “Exhibits” and “Schedules” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and Exhibits or Schedules to this Agreement.

(e) The term “knowledge of BLBX,” and all variations thereof, will mean the actual knowledge of the BLBX Persons, or any of them, after reasonable inquiry. The term “knowledge of Evtec,” and all variations thereof, will mean the actual knowledge of the Evtec Persons, or any of them, after reasonable inquiry.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement, information “provided to,” “made available to”, “supplied to” or “to be supplied to” hereunder shall be deemed to include any information made available by BLBX to Evtec or by Evtec to BLBX, as applicable, in the virtual dataroom(s) of BLBX or Evtec, as applicable, prior to the date of this Agreement.

ARTICLE II
CONTINGENT VALUE RIGHTS

(a) The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (i) result in any violation of any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, or (ii) result in any violation of any loan or credit agreement, note, mortgage, indenture, lease, or other agreement, obligation, instrument, permit, concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Company or its properties or assets which violation, in the case of clause (ii), individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to be material to the Company. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Body is required by or with respect to the Company in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company or the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) The Company hereby appoints [●] as the Rights Agent to act as rights agent for the Company in accordance with the instructions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement, and [●] hereby accepts such appointment.

2.2 Nontransferable. The CVRs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or in any other manner transferred or disposed of, in whole or in part, other than through a Permitted Transfer. Any purported transfer of a CVR other than in a Permitted Transfer shall be null and void ab initio.

2.3 No Certificate; Registration; Registration of Transfer; Change of Address.

(a) The CVRs will be issued in book-entry form only and will not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument.

(b) The Rights Agent will keep a register (the “CVR Register”) for the registration of the CVRs. The Rights Agent is hereby initially appointed “CVR Registrar” for the purpose of registering the CVRs and Permitted Transfers of the CVRs as herein provided. Upon any change in the identity of the Rights Agent, the successor Rights Agent will automatically also become the successor CVR Registrar.

(c) Subject to the restrictions on transferability set forth in Section 2.2, every request made to transfer a CVR must be in writing and accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer and any other requested documentation in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the CVR Registrar, duly executed by the registered Holder or Holders thereof or by the duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized attorney, including the evidence of authority of the party presenting the CVR for transfer, which authority may include, if applicable, a signature guarantee from an eligible guarantor institution participating in a signature guarantee program approved by the Securities Transfer Association.

All costs and expenses related to any transfer or assignment of the CVRs (including the cost of any transfer tax) will be the responsibility of the transferor.

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT –Exhibit E

The Company shall, within ten (10) Business Days following the final determination of the CVR Payment Amount, pay such CVR Payment Amount to the Rights Agent (for the account of the Holders) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as may be designated by the Rights Agent or make arrangements to transfer any securities distributable to the Holders representing such CVR Payment Amount, as applicable.

(e) The Company will be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from any CVR Payment Amount or other amount payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as the Company is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code, or any provision of state or local tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant governmental entity, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(f) Subject to prior execution and delivery by the Holder Representative of a reasonable and customary confidentiality and market stand-off agreement, the Company shall provide the Holder Representative with reasonable access during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance request to the books and records of the Company to the extent necessary to verify whether a CVR Transaction occurred prior to the CVR Expiration Date or the Company’s calculation of the CVR Payment Amount; it being understood that the Holder Representative’s rights under this Section 2.4(f) shall terminate upon the later of (i) the CVR Expiration Date or (ii) thirty (30) days after the delivery to the Holder Representative of a Reporting Certificate.

(a) The CVRs will not have any voting or dividend rights, and interest will not accrue on any amounts payable on the CVRs to any Holder.

(b) The CVRs will not represent any equity or ownership interest in the Company. The rights of the Holders and the obligations of the Company are contract rights limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement, and such Holders’ sole right to receive property hereunder is the right to receive cash from the Company, if any, through the Rights Agent in accordance with the terms hereof. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that a CVR shall not constitute a security of the Company.

2.6 Holder’s Right to Abandon CVR. A Holder may at any time, at such Holder’s option, abandon all of such Holder’s remaining rights in a CVR by transferring such CVR to the Company or any of its Affiliates without consideration.

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT –Exhibit E

(ii) the Company has delivered to the Holder Representative and the Rights Agent an Officer’s Certificate, stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease complies with this Article VI and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with.

(b) In connection with a Change of Control, the Company will have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to redeem all, but not less than all of the outstanding CVRs, at any time from and after the public announcement of such Change of Control and ending on the thirtieth (30^th) day following the consummation of the Change of Control for an aggregate redemption amount equal to the Target Payment Amount. In the event that the Company wishes to exercise its right pursuant to this Section 6.1(b), the Company shall provide a written notice of redemption (a “Redemption Notice”) to the Rights Agent and the Holder Representative, which Redemption Notice shall specify the date fixed for the redemption of the outstanding CVRs, which date shall be not less than five (5) Business Days nor more than ten (10) Business Days following the delivery of the Redemption Notice to the Rights Agent and the Holder Representative (such date, the “Redemption Date”).

Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. In any arbitration under this Section 8.11(b), the number of arbitrators will be one, and such arbitrator will be selected in accordance with the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules. The place of the arbitration will be [Dallas, Texas]. The arbitrator will be a lawyer or retired judge with experience in the fintech industry and with mergers and acquisitions. Each party will, upon written request of the other party, promptly provide the other with copies of all relevant documents. There shall be no other discovery allowed.

Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties (provided that the Holder Representative may disclose to the Holders any such information without the consent of the Company). The fees and expenses of the arbitration, including the costs and expenses billed by the arbitrator in connection with the performance of its duties described herein, will be paid by the non-prevailing party, as determined by the arbitrator, in proportion with the extent to which the prevailing party prevails, and the remainder of such costs and expenses will be paid by the prevailing party; provided, however, that any fees and expenses of the arbitration incurred by the Holder Representative shall be offset against any CVR Payment Amount, if any.

8.12 Confidentiality.

(a) “Confidential Information” shall mean any and all technical or business information relating to a party, including, without limitation, financial, marketing and product/service development information, stockholder information (including any non-public information of such stockholder), and proprietary information that is disclosed or otherwise becomes known to the other party or its Affiliates, agents or representatives before or during the term of this Agreement. Confidential Information constitutes trade secrets and is of great value to the owner (or its Affiliates). Confidential Information shall not include any information that is: (a) already known to the other party or its Affiliates at the time of the disclosure, provided that such prior knowledge can be substantiated by the written records of such party; (b) publicly known at the time of the disclosure or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act or failure of the other party; (c) subsequently disclosed to the other party or its Affiliates on a non-confidential basis by a third party not having a confidential relationship with the owner and which rightfully acquired such information; or (d) independently developed by one party without access to the Confidential Information of the other, provided that such independent development can be substantiated by the written records of such party. This Agreement, including all of its terms and conditions, will not be deemed to be Confidential Information and may be publicly disclosed by the Company.

SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT –Exhibit E

(b) All Confidential Information of a party will be held in confidence by the other party with at least the same degree of care as such party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of like kind and import, but not less than a reasonable degree of care. Neither party will disclose in any manner Confidential Information of the other party in any form to any person or entity without the other party’s prior consent. However, each party may disclose relevant aspects of the other party’s Confidential Information to its officers, Affiliates, agents, subcontractors and employees to the extent reasonably necessary to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, each party will implement such physical and other security measures and controls as are necessary to protect (a) the security and confidentiality of Confidential Information; (b) against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of Confidential Information; and (c) against any unauthorized access to or use of Confidential Information. To the extent that a party delegates any duties and responsibilities under this Agreement to an agent or other subcontractor, the party ensures that such agent and subcontractor are contractually bound to confidentiality terms consistent with the terms of this Section 8.13.

(c) In the event that any requests or demands are made for the disclosure of Confidential Information, other than requests to Rights Agent for stockholder records pursuant to standard subpoenas from state or federal government authorities (e.g., divorce and criminal actions), the party receiving such request will promptly notify the other party to secure instructions from an authorized officer of such party as to such request and to enable the other party the opportunity to obtain a protective order or other confidential treatment, unless such notification is otherwise prohibited by law or court order. Each party expressly reserves the right, however, to disclose Confidential Information to any person whenever it is advised by counsel that it may be held liable for the failure to disclose such Confidential Information or if required by law or court order.

(d) As may be required by law and without limiting any party’s rights in respect of a breach of this Section 8.12, each party will promptly:

(i) notify the other party in writing of any unauthorized possession, use or disclosure of the other party’s Confidential Information by any person or entity that may become known to such party;

(ii) furnish to the other party full details of the unauthorized possession, use or disclosure; and

(iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent a recurrence of any such unauthorized possession, use or disclosure of Confidential Information.

8.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. Delivery of a signed Agreement by reliable electronic means, including facsimile, email, or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000 (including DocuSign) shall be an effective method of delivering the executed Agreement.
