SECURITIES PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
This Securities Purchase and Sale Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into this
3rd day of June 2004 by and between CLX Energy, Inc., a Colorado company ("the
Company"), and the persons or entities executing this agreement as buyers
(collectively the "Buyers").
WHEREAS the Company is a fully reporting OTC BB traded public company which owns
certain oil and gas production assets including leases and operating equipment,
in addition to other business assets including accounts receivable, furniture,
office equipment, supplies and cash (collectively the "Assets"), and is indebted
to several parties for various bank lines, trade and other liabilities (the
"Liabilities"), and
WHEREAS the Buyers collectively own or control a total of 1,592,840 shares of
common stock of the Company, representing a total of 60.5% of the total
outstanding common stock, and
WHEREAS the Company desires to sell, and the Buyers desire to purchase the
Assets in their entirety, and
WHEREAS the New Management (as defined in Section 2.7 below) has represented and
warranted to the Buyers that they have significant experience in being able to
carry out this Transaction (as defined in Article I below) and managing public
companies subject to the Investment Company Act.
NOW THEREFORE, the Company and the Buyer herein agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1
THE TRANSACTION
1.1 The Company shall establish a new Colorado limited
liability company, referred to hereinafter as "Newco", into which it shall
transfer all of the business and operating Assets of the Company together with
all of the Liabilities of the Company in exchange for all membership interests.
1.2 Both the Assets and Liabilities to be transferred to Newco are listed in
Exhibit A, attached hereto.
1.3 The Company shall sell 100% of the Newco membership interests to the Buyers
in exchange for 1,433,556 shares of the Company's common stock, which shall be
returned to the Company's authorized but unissued stock.
1.4 The Company shall thereafter declare a new business plan of filing to become
an Investment Company subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the
"Investment Company Act") and raise up to $5 million for that purpose. The
actions described in this Article 1 shall hereinafter be called the
"Transaction."
ARTICLE 2
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CLOSING
2.1 The Company shall obtain a fairness opinion covering the
Transactions prior to the Closing (as defined below in Section 3.1) of the
Transaction.
1
2.2 If required, the Company shall file a Proxy statement
seeking shareholder approval of the sale and shall obtain such approval prior to
the Closing of the sale and transfer of ownership to Buyers.
2.3 At Closing, Buyers shall provide evidence of ownership of the Company's
common stock as hereinabove described and shall have all documents prepared to
effect the transfer of such shares to the Company.
2.4 Upon the close of the sale of the membership interests to Buyers, the
Company intends to file to become an investment company under the Investment
Company Act. In accordance therewith, the Company intends to issue up to $5
million USD in common stock in the coming twelve months through a combination of
the sale of common stock and stock-for-stock transactions, for the purpose of
making strategic investments into one or more operating companies. The Company
warrants that, owing to the present illiquid nature of the common stock, and the
infinite combination of investments which could be contemplated and executed in
the coming years, it is difficult to estimate the total amount of dilution to
the present common stock shareholders which may be experienced. Further, the
Company warrants that it will use their best efforts to i) create both short and
long-term liquidity in the common stock, ii) enhance shareholder value through
investment solely in companies where the investment is below book value, iii)
provide an opportunity through enhanced liquidity, public relations, and other
programs, for existing common stock shareholders to liquidate their positions at
or reasonably near the current stock price. New management of the company
acknowledges their fiduciary responsibility to the shareholders and warrants
that they will endeavor to uphold that responsibility.
2.5 The Company shall not be obligated to make, and shall be prohibited from
making, any investment into Newco after transferring all of the current
operating business, Assets and Liabilities into Newco.
2.6 The Company shall provide evidence of a financing commitment up to $5
million USD, including an initial bridge loan for up to $250,0000, for the
benefit of the Company and shall have such funding commitment available for
inspection by the Buyers.
2.7 Upon execution of this Agreement, the Company with the assistance of the
Buyers shall effect a change in the management and board of directors of the
Company such that only Xx Xxxxxxxxx shall remain as a director of the Company
(the "New Management"). Xx. Xxxxxxxxx shall be appointed the president of Newco.
Xx. Xxxxxxxxx will resign all posts with the Company on or after the Closing.
2.8 Buyers shall present evidence at closing that all Liabilities have been
transferred to Newco and shall indemnify the Company against any liability for
such obligations and shall use their best efforts to have all credit facilities
assigned from the Company into the name of Newco without recourse to the
Company.
2.9 The Company shall present evidence at Closing that both Board of Directors
and Shareholder approval of the sale have been obtained.
ARTICLE 3
MISCELLANEOUS

of shareholder's approval at a shareholder meeting held to approve the sale as
