INC., an Arkansas corporation ("Pet Quarters"), XXXXXXXXX
ACQUISITION CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Xxxxxxxxx") and
the persons listed in Exhibit A hereof (collectively the
"Shareholders"), being the owners of record of all the issued and
outstanding stock of Xxxxxxxxx.
Whereas, Pet Quarters wishes to acquire and the Shareholders
wish to transfer all of the issued and outstanding securities of
Xxxxxxxxx in a transaction intended to qualify as a reorganization
within the meaning of Section368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Exchange").
Now, therefore, Pet Quarters, Xxxxxxxxx, and the Shareholders
adopt this plan of reorganization and agree as follows:
1. EXCHANGE OF STOCK

to Pet Quarters at the Closing (defined below) the number of shares
of common stock of Xxxxxxxxx, $0.0001 par value per share, shown
opposite their names in Exhibit A, in exchange for an aggregate of
130,208 shares of voting common stock of Pet Quarters, $.001 par
value per share.
1.2. EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES. Each holder of an
outstanding certificate or certificates theretofore representing
shares of Xxxxxxxxx common stock shall surrender such certificate(s)
for cancellation to Pet Quarters, and shall receive in exchange a
certificate or certificates representing the number of full shares
of Pet Quarters common stock into which the shares of Xxxxxxxxx
common stock represented by the certificate or certificates so
surrendered shall have been converted. The transfer of Xxxxxxxxx
shares by the Shareholders shall be effected by the delivery to Pet
Quarters at the Closing of certificates representing the transferred
shares endorsed in blank or accompanied by stock powers executed in
blank.
1.3. FURTHER ASSURANCES. At the Closing and from time to
time thereafter, the Shareholders shall execute such additional
instruments and take such other action as Pet Quarters may request
in order more effectively to sell, transfer, and assign the

Quarters' title thereto.
2. CLOSING

shall be held at the offices of the Exchange Agent provided for
herein without requiring the meeting of the parties hereof. All

delivered and executed. The date of Closing may be accelerated or

other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire
original writing or transmission or original signature.
3. UNEXCHANGED CERTIFICATES. Until surrendered, each
outstanding certificate that prior to the Closing represented
Xxxxxxxxx common stock shall be deemed for all purposes, other than
the payment of dividends or other distributions, to evidence
ownership of the number of shares of Pet Quarters common stock into
which it was converted. No dividend or other distribution shall be
paid to the holders of certificates of Xxxxxxxxx common stock until
presented for exchange at which time any outstanding dividends or
