The

and time when the Merger shall become effective, as aforesaid, is herein called
the “Effective Date of the Merger.”
1.4 Effect
of Merger.
ROK, as
the Surviving Corporation in the Merger, will continue to be governed by the
laws of the State of Delaware and the separate corporate existence of ROK and
all of its rights, privileges, immunities and franchises, public or private,
and
all of its duties and liabilities as a corporation organized under the DGCL
will
continue unaffected and unimpaired by the Merger. At the close of business
on
the Effective Date of the Merger, the existence of Cyberfund as a distinct
entity shall cease. At that time all rights, franchises and interests of ROK
and
Cyberfund, respectively, in and to every type of property, whether real,
personal or mixed, and choices in action shall be transferred to and vested
in
ROK by virtue of the Merger without any deed or other transfer. ROK, without
any
order or other action on the part of any court or otherwise, shall possess
all
and singular the rights, privileges, powers and franchises, and shall be subject
to all the restrictions, disabilities and duties of Cyberfund and ROK, and
all
property, whether real, personal or mixed, of Cyberfund and ROK, and all debts
due to Cyberfund or ROK on whatever account, and all other things in action
or
belonging to each of said corporations, shall be vested in ROK. All property,
rights, privileges, powers and franchises, and all and every other interest
of
Cyberfund or ROK as of the Effective Date of the Merger, including, but not
limited to, all patents, trademarks, licenses, registrations, and all other
intellectual properties, shall thereafter be the property of ROK to the same
extent and effect as such was of the respective Constituent Corporations prior
to the Effective Date of the Merger, and the title to any real estate vested
by
deed or otherwise in Cyberfund and ROK shall not revert or be in any way
impaired by reason of the Merger; provided,
however,
that
all rights of creditors and all liens upon any property of Cyberfund or ROK
shall thenceforth attach to ROK and may be enforced against it to the same
extent as if said debts, liabilities, and duties had been incurred or contracted
by ROK. Neither the rights of creditors nor any liens or security interests
upon
the property of either of the Constituent Corporations shall be impaired by
the
Merger. ROK shall carry on business with the assets of Cyberfund and ROK. The
established offices and facilities of ROK and Cyberfund immediately prior to
the
Merger shall become the established offices and facilities of ROK.
All
corporate acts, plans, policies, resolutions, approvals and authorizations
of
the stockholders, Board of Directors, committees elected or appointed by the
Board of Directors, officers and agents of Cyberfund, which were valid and
effective immediately prior to the Merger shall be taken for all purposes as
the
acts, plans, policies, resolutions, approvals and authorizations of the
Surviving Corporation and shall be as effective and binding thereon as the
same
were with respect to Cyberfund. The employees of Cyberfund shall become the
employees of the Surviving Corporation and continue to be entitled to the same
rights and benefits which they enjoyed as employees of Cyberfund.
1.5 Disposition
and Conversion of Shares.
The
mode of carrying the Merger into effect and the manner and the disposition
of
the shares of Cyberfund and ROK shall be as follows:
2
(a) ROK
Shares.
Each
share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of ROK issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger shall, by virtue of the
Merger and without any action by ROK, the holder of such shares or by any other
person, be cancelled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued
shares, all rights in respect thereof shall cease to exist and no shares of
ROK
common stock or other securities of the Surviving Corporation shall be issuable
with respect thereto.
(b) Cyberfund
Non-Dissenting Shares.
Each
share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of Cyberfund issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger other than
the
shares, if any, of Cyberfund for which appraisal rights shall be perfected
under
Section 18-1091 of the OGCA (the “Dissenting
Shares”)
shall,
by virtue of the Merger and without any action by Cyberfund, the holder of
such
shares or any other person, be converted into and exchanged for one fully paid
and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the
Surviving Corporation.
(c) Cyberfund
Dissenting Shares.
The
holders of Dissenting Shares of Cyberfund common stock who have complied with
all requirements for perfecting the rights of appraisal of stockholders set
forth in Section 10-1091 of the OGCA with respect to their Dissenting Shares
of
Cyberfund common stock shall be entitled to their rights under the
OGCA.
(d) Exchange
of Certificates.
Each
outstanding certificate theretofore representing shares of Cyberfund common
stock that are not Dissenting Shares (the “Non-Dissenting
Shares”)
shall
be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of whole shares of the ROK
common stock into which such Non-Dissenting Shares of Cyberfund common stock
were converted in the Merger and the holder thereof shall not be required to
surrender such certificate for a certificate issued by ROK. However, after
the
Effective Date of the Merger, each holder of an outstanding certificate
representing Non-Dissenting Shares of Cyberfund common stock may, at such
stockholder’s option and sole discretion, surrender the same for cancellation to
OTC Stock Transfer Co., as the sole stock transfer and registrar of the
Cyberfund common stock and as exchange agent therefor (the “Exchange
Agent”),
and
each such holder shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate
or certificates representing the number of shares of the ROK common stock into
which the surrendered shares were converted as herein provided.
The
registered owner on the books and records of ROK or the Exchange Agent of any
such outstanding certificate representing Non-Dissenting Shares of Cyberfund
common stock shall, until such certificate shall have been surrendered for
transfer or conversion or otherwise accounted for to the Surviving Corporation
or the Exchange Agent, have and be entitled to exercise any voting and other
rights with respect to and to receive dividends and other distributions upon
the
shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation represented by such
outstanding certificate as provided above.
Each
certificate representing common stock of the Surviving Corporation so issued
in
the Merger shall bear the same legends, if any, with respect to the restrictions
on transferability as the certificates of Cyberfund so converted and given
in
exchange therefor, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors of
the
Surviving Corporation in compliance with applicable laws.
If
any
certificate for shares of ROK stock is to be issued in a name other than that
in
which the certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall
be a condition of issuance thereof that the certificate so surrendered shall
be
properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer, that such transfer
otherwise be proper and that the person requesting such transfer pay to the
Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes payable by reason of issuance of
such
new certificate in a name other than that of the registered holder of the
certificate surrendered or establish to the satisfaction of ROK that such tax
has been paid or is not payable.
(e) Validity
of ROK Common Stock.
At the
Effective Date of the Merger, all shares of ROK common stock into which the
Non-Dissenting Shares of Cyberfund common stock are to be converted pursuant
to
the Merger shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and shall
be
issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the corresponding shares
of Cyberfund common stock.
1.6 Certificate
of Incorporation of Surviving Corporation.
The
Certificate of Incorporation of ROK as in effect immediately prior to the
Effective Date of the Merger shall continue in full force and effect as the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until duly amended
in
accordance with the provisions thereof and applicable law.
3
1.7 Bylaws
of Surviving Corporation.
The
Bylaws of ROK as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger
shall continue in full force and effect as the Bylaws of the Surviving
Corporation until altered, amended or repealed as provided in the Bylaws or
as
provided by applicable law.
1.8 Directors
and Officers of Surviving Corporation.
The
directors and officers of Cyberfund as of the Effective Date of the Merger
shall
be and become the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation, until
their successors shall be duly elected and qualified or until their sooner
death, resignation or removal.
1.9 Accounting
Matters.
The
assets and liabilities of the Constituent Corporations, as of the Effective
Date
of the Merger, shall be taken upon the books of the Surviving Corporation at
the
amounts at which they shall be carried at that time on the books of the
respective Constituent Corporations. The amount of the capital surplus and
earned surplus accounts of the Surviving Corporation after the Merger shall
be
