RE: Extension of Settlement and Option Agreement dated December 7, 1995 and
Joint Escrow Instructions dated December 7,1995 (copies attached) and
additional proposals
Dear Xxxxx:
PAN Environmental Corporation has proven to be a very difficult company to
clean up and resurrect.
Maximum Resources, Inc. pulled out of the deal because of time delays and its
lack of resources to adequately finance the PAN project.
Valhalla Financial Group, L.L.C. has continued to work for PAN to locate a
suitable merger candidate; however, this has proved to be a difficult task as
PAN has a considerable amount of debt to clean up and a substantial amount of
accounting to do in order to obtain certified audits for 1994, 1995, 1996 and
1997.
In addition, we estimate that PAN will require $40-50,000 in cash for
transfer agent fees, accounting fees, certified audit fees, legal fees and
other similar business expenses between now and December 31, 1997, which is our
target date to complete the work of bringing PAN into compliance as a
reporting company, so that we can complete the merger we are working on in the
first week of January 1998.
Accordingly, we propose that you consider the following proposal:
1. That you extend the subject Settlement and Option Agreements to December
31, 1998.
2. That you, for your part in assisting us in generating immediate cash to
complete all tasks to bring PAN into compliance by December 31, 1997,
contribute $15,000.00 in exchange for new issue Rule 144 common shares at
$0.25 per share, or 60,000 shares.
3. That PAN, through its escrow agent, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, will assign to a
separate escrow 189,805 of the 450,000 common shares that it had
authorized for issuance to cover PAN's debt. PAN and/or Xxxxxxx will
negotiate with PAN's creditors to settle out debt as cheaply as possible
and will only sell enough stock to cover such settlements and will return
any stock remaining to PAN'S treasury. A portion of PAN's debt is the
accrued interest on your judgment from March 12, 1996 to March 12, 1998
(the interest from March 12, 1995 to March 12, 1996 having been covered by
the Settlement and Option
2
Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx
December 1, 1997
Page 2 of 2
Agreement dated December 7, 1995). This two-year amount of accrued interest
is as follows:
$161,250.00 $ 39,659.10
Principal Amount Interest, Attorney
@ 25% per annum Fees and Costs
@18% per annum
---------------- ------------------
March 12, 1996 to March 12, 1997 $40,312.50 $ 7,138.64
March 12, 1997 to March 12, 1998 40,312.50 7,138.64
---------- ----------
Total $80,625.00 $ 14,277.28
TOTAL INTEREST $94,902.28
----------
Unlike PAN's other creditors where PAN and Xxxxxxx are going to negotiate
settlements, PAN intends to fully pay the above accrued interest through
this separate agreement.
4. The terms and conditions of the separate escrow agreement to be set up will
be as follows: That we form a separate escrow to pay off the $94,902.28
with 189,805 common shares of PAN assigned to the separate escrow by PAN
and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx and that TCKTS, L.L.C. dba Bristol Media, Ltd.
("Bristol") be granted an option at $0.50 per share on the escrow shares,
good until December 31, 1998. Bristol will be handling investor relations
duties for PAN and this option will serve as an additional incentive to
Bristol to get this debt paid off as soon as possible. If Bristol does not
exercise its option by December 31, 1998, all such shares will become the
sole and separate property of Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx/Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx, X.X.X.
(The judgment will not accrue any additional interest until December 31,
1998, the expiration of the option agreement to Bristol.)
If you agree to this proposal, please sign and date below.
