follows:
1
I
EXCHANGE
1.1 In accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and Section 1(a) of
Reorganization Agreement, each of the 2,000 shares of Xxxxxx Common Stock
outstanding as the Effective Date of the Exchange shall be exchanged for One

property of each of the Constituent Corporations shall be preserved unimpaired.

shares of common stock, $.001 par value, of RC (collectively, "Exchange Shares")

other than that set forth in the Reorganization Agreement, be exchanged at the
Effective Date of the Exchange into One Thousand Seven Hundred (1,700) shares of
the Exchange Shares. If between the date hereof and the Effective Date of the

their respective outstanding common stock, or a stock dividend thereon shall be
declared with a record date within said period, the per share amounts of the
Exchange Shares to be issued and delivered as provided in this Agreement shall

2.2 After the Effective Date of the Exchange certificates evidencing

thereof to receive certificates for shares of the Exchange Shares at the
applicable rate as aforesaid. Each holder of Xxxxxx Common Stock, upon surrender
of the certificate or certificates, which prior thereto represented shares of

exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent") for such shareholder to effect the
exchange of certificates on their behalf, shall be entitled upon such surrender
to receive in exchange therefor a certificate or certificates representing the
number of whole shares of the Exchange Shares into which the shares of Xxxxxx
Common Stock theretofore represented by the certificate or certificates so
surrendered shall have been exchanged as aforesaid. Until so surrendered, each
such outstanding certificate for shares of Xxxxxx Common Stock shall be deemed
for all corporate purposes, including voting rights, subject to the future
provisions of this Article II, to evidence the ownership of the shares of the
Exchange Shares into which such shares have been so exchanged. No dividends or
distributions will be paid to persons entitled to receive certificates for
shares of the Exchange Shares pursuant hereto until such persons shall have
surrendered their certificates which prior to the Effective Date of the Exchange
represented shares of Xxxxxx Common Stock; but there shall be paid to the record
holder of each such certificate, with respect to the number of whole shares of
the Exchange Shares issued in exchange therefor (i) upon such surrender,the
amount of any dividends or distributions with a record date subsequent to the
Effective Date of the Exchange and prior to surrender which shall have become
payable thereon since the Effective Date of the Exchange, without interest, and
(ii) after such surrender, the amount of any dividends thereon with a record
date subsequent to the Effective Date of the Exchange and prior to surrender and
the payment date of which shall be subsequent to surrender; such amount to be
paid on such payment date.
2.3 No certificate representing a fraction of a share of the Exchange
Shares will be issued and no right to vote or receive any distribution or any
other right of a shareholder shall attach to any fractional interest in a share
3
of the Exchange Shares to which any holder of shares of Xxxxxx Common Stock
would otherwise be entitled hereunder. In lieu thereof, each holder of shares of
Xxxxxx Common Stock entitled to a fraction of a share of the Exchange Shares
shall receive one whole share of RC Common Stock if the fraction of a share is
equal to or greater than one-half share (.50); otherwise, the holder of the
fraction of a share shall receive no additional share.
2.4 If any certificate for shares of the Exchange Shares 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 the issuance thereof that the
certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed and otherwise be in proper
form for transfer and that the person requesting such exchange pay to the
Exchange Agent any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of
a certificate for shares of the Exchange Shares in any name other than that of
the registered holder of the certificate surrendered, or establish to the
satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not
payable.
2.5 At the Effective Date of the Exchange, all shares of Xxxxxx Common
Stock which shall then be held in its treasury, if any, shall cease to exist,
and all certificates representing such shares shall be canceled.
