AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION ("Agreement") among GREENPOWER INTERNATIONAL GROUP LIMITED, a Delaware corporation ("Greenpower Delaware"), GREENPOWER INTERNATIONAL GROUP LIMITED, a British Virgin Island company, (“Greenpower BVI”) and the persons listed in Exhibit A hereof (collectively the "Shareholders"), being the owners of record of all of the issued and outstanding stock of Greenpower BVI.
Whereas, Greenpower Delaware wishes to acquire Greenpower BVI and the Shareholders wish to transfer all of the issued and outstanding securities of Greenpower BVI in a transaction intended to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Now, therefore, Greenpower Delaware, Greenpower BVI, and the Shareholders adopt this plan of reorganization and agree as follows:
1. Exchange of Stock
1.1. Number of Shares. The Shareholders agree to transfer to Greenpower Delaware at the Closing (defined below) the number of shares of common stock of Greenpower BVI shown opposite their names in Exhibit A, in exchange for an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of voting common stock of Greenpower Delaware at an exchange ratio of 200 shares of Greenpower Delaware common stock for each share of Greenpower BVI common stock.
1.2. Exchange of Certificates. Each holder of an outstanding certificate or certificates theretofore representing shares of Greenpower BVI common stock shall surrender such certificate(s) for cancellation to Greenpower Delaware, and shall receive in exchange a certificate or certificates representing the number of full shares of Greenpower Delaware common stock into which the shares of Greenpower BVI common stock represented by the certificate or certificates so surrendered shall have been converted. The transfer of Greenpower BVI shares by the Shareholders shall be effected by the delivery to Greenpower Delaware at the Closing of certificates representing the transferred shares endorsed in blank or accompanied by stock powers executed in blank.
1.3. Fractional Shares. Fractional shares of Greenpower Delaware common stock shall not be issued, but in lieu thereof Greenpower Delaware shall round up fractional shares to the next highest whole number.
1.4. Further Assurances. At the Closing and from time to time thereafter, the Shareholders shall execute such additional instruments and take such other action as Greenpower Delaware may request in order more effectively to sell, transfer, and assign the transferred stock to Greenpower Delaware and to confirm Greenpower Delaware's title thereto.
2. Ratio of Exchange. The securities of Greenpower BVI owned by the Shareholders, and the relative securities of Greenpower Delaware for which they will be exchanged, are set out opposite their names in Exhibit A.
3. Form of Documents. Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission required by this Agreement or any signature required thereon may be used in lieu of an original writing or transmission or signature for any and all purposes for which the original could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission or original signature.
4. Unexchanged Certificates. Until surrendered, each outstanding certificate that prior to the Closing represented Greenpower BVI 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 Greenpower Delaware common stock into which it was converted. No dividend or other distribution shall be paid to the holders of certificates of Greenpower BVI common stock until presented for exchange at which time any outstanding dividends or other distributions shall be paid.
5. Representations and Warranties of the Shareholders
The Shareholders, individually and separately, represent and warrant as follows:
