Each of the parties to this Agreement is individually referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

In connection with a recapitalization of Parent, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation the closing of the Concurrent Transactions (as defined below) and execution and delivery of the Constituent Agreements (as defined below), the parties hereto have agreed to effect the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

As a result of the Merger, among other effects, the Membership Units will be canceled and exchanged for an aggregate of Two Hundred and Ninety Seven Million Two Hundred and Eighteen Thousand Two Hundred and Thirty Seven (297,218,237) newly issued shares of common stock (the “Parent Stock”), par value $0.001 per share, of the Parent, (the “Parent Common Stock”) and the Company will be the entity surviving the Merger.

The Merger is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or such other tax free reorganization or restructuring provisions as may be available under the Code.

The Board of Directors of each of the Parent and the Company has determined that it is desirable to effect this plan of reorganization and Merger.

Concurrent with and as a condition to the Merger, the Parent will enter into employment agreements with each of Xxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxx Xxxxxxx (collectively the “Heywards”), in the forms attached as Exhibit A and Exhibit B, respectively, to serve as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and President, respectively, of Parent (collectively, the “Employment Agreements”), the Heywards shall execute lockup agreements, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Officer Lockup Agreements”) and a registration rights agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, with the Seller covering the Parent Stock (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). . The Employment Agreements, the Officer Lockup Agreements and the Registration Rights Agreement shall collectively be referred to herein as the “Constituent Agreements”.

Concurrent with and as a condition to the Merger, Parent will issue authorized but unissued shares of Parent Stock in conjunction with the Merger and the transactions and recapitalization discussed in Section 4.23 herein (collectively the “Transactions” or “Concurrent Transactions”).

The Parties intend for the Merger and the other Concurrent Transactions to occur at a concurrent closing upon execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Constituent Agreements and for the Parent Stock to represent immediately after the Closing of the Merger 50% issued and outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock after giving effect to the Concurrent Transactions.

Section 2.01 Good Title. Seller is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to the Membership Units.

Membership Units set forth next to Seller’s name on the signature page hereto are and will be at Closing, all of Membership Units of the Company.

Section 2.02 Power and Authority. Seller has the requisite organizational power and authority to enter into this Agreement. Seller has obtained all requisite approvals of its members to enter into this Agreement and consummate the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller, enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law). No consent, approval or agreement of any individual or entity is required to be obtained by Seller in connection with the execution and performance by Seller of this Agreement or the execution and performance by Seller of any agreements, instruments or other obligations entered into in connection with this Agreement.

Section 2.03 No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Seller and the performance by Seller of its obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof: (i) will not require the consent of any third party (other than its members) or any federal, state, local or foreign government or any court of competent jurisdiction, administrative agency or commission or other governmental authority or instrumentality, domestic or foreign (“Governmental Entity”) under any statutes, laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, writs, injunctions, judgments, or decrees (collectively, “Laws”); (ii) will not violate any Laws applicable to the Seller; and (iii) will not violate or breach any contractual obligation to which Seller is a party except for such as would not result in a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined below) or equivalent material adverse effect on Seller.

Section 2.06 Available Information. Seller has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Parent.

Section 2.07 Non-Registration. Seller understands that the shares of Parent Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and, if issued in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, will be issued by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of Seller’s representations as expressed herein.

Section 2.08 Restricted Securities. Seller understands that the Parent Stock is characterized as “restricted securities” under the Securities Act inasmuch as this Agreement contemplates that, if acquired by Seller pursuant hereto, the Parent Stock would be acquired in a transaction not involving a public offering. Seller further acknowledges that if the Parent Stock is issued to Seller in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, such Parent Stock may not be resold without registration under the Securities Act or the existence of an exemption therefrom.

Section 2.09 Legends. It is understood that the shares of Parent Stock will bear the following legend or another legend that is similar to the following:

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.

The Company is duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business or its ownership or leasing of its properties make such qualification necessary, except where the failure to so qualify would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(a) The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of the Transactions and compliance with the terms hereof and thereof will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of the Company under any provision of (i) the Company Charter Documents, (ii) any material contract, lease, license, indenture, note, bond, agreement, permit, concession, franchise or other instrument (a “Contract”) to which the Company is a party or by which any of its respective properties or assets is bound or (iii) subject to the filings and other matters referred to in Section 3.04(b), any material judgment, order or decree (“Judgment”) or material Law applicable to the Company or its properties or assets, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, any such items that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, Seller, Parent and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under this Agreement. The Parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

Section 7.05 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”.

Section 7.06 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall 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 Transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

Section 7.07 Counterparts; Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties. Facsimile execution and facsimile or electronic delivery of this Agreement is legal, valid and binding for all purposes.

Section 7.08 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, taken together with the Company Disclosure Schedule and the Parent Disclosure Schedule, (a) constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the Transactions and (b) are not intended to confer upon any person other than the Parties any rights or remedies. The representations and warranties of Seller and the Company contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 7.09 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California, without reference to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action or proceeding brought for the purpose of enforcement of any term or provision of this Agreement shall be brought only in the Federal or state courts sitting in the Central District of California and the parties hereby waive any and all rights to trial by jury.

Section 7.10 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.
