From and after the Effective Time, the separate corporate existence of the Acquisition Subsidiary shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation resulting from the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”). The “Effective Time” shall be the time at which a certificate of merger in proper form and duly executed, reflecting the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”), pursuant to Section 251(c) of General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Act”), is filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Merger shall have the effects set forth herein and in the applicable provisions of the Delaware Act.

The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of The Xxxxx Law Group, P.C., in New York, New York, commencing at 10:00 a.m. local time (or such other place and time, or remotely, as is mutually agreed to by the Parties) on or before March 30, 2022, or, if all of the conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby have not been satisfied or waived by such date, on such mutually agreeable later date as soon thereafter as practicable (and in any event not later than three (3) Business Days) after the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions (excluding the delivery of any documents to be delivered at the Closing by any of the Parties) set forth in Article V hereof (the “Closing Date”). As used in this Agreement, the term “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banks in the state of New York are required or authorized by applicable Law (as defined in Section 2.4 below) to close.

1.3 Actions at the Closing. At the Closing:

(a) the Company shall deliver to the Parent and the Acquisition Subsidiary the various certificates, instruments and documents to be delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof;

(b) the Parent and the Acquisition Subsidiary shall deliver to the Company the various certificates, instruments and documents to be delivered by the Parent and/or Acquisition Subsidiary pursuant to Sections 6.2 hereof;

(c) the Surviving Corporation shall file the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware; and

(d) each of the stockholders of the Company (the “Company Stockholders”) shall surrender for cancellation shares of the Company Common Stock (as defined below in Section 1.5(a)) held by them in exchange for shares of Parent Common Stock (as defined IN Section 3.2 below).

1.4 Additional Actions. If at any time after the Effective Time the Surviving Corporation or Parent shall consider or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances or any other acts or things are necessary, desirable or proper (a) to vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in the Surviving Corporation or Parent, its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of either the Company or the Acquisition Subsidiary, or (b) otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the Surviving Corporation, Parent and its officers and directors or their designees shall be authorized (to the fullest extent allowed under applicable Law (as defined below)) to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of either the Company, Parent or the Acquisition Subsidiary, all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments and assurances and do, in the name and on behalf of the Parent, Acquisition Subsidiary or Company, all such other acts and things necessary, desirable or proper to vest, perfect or confirm its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, powers, franchises, properties or assets of the Parent, Acquisition Subsidiary or Company, as applicable, and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

1.5 Exchange of Company Securities. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or the holder of any of the following securities:

(a) In exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (as defined below) (other than Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 1,6 below)), the Parent shall issue to the Company Stockholders (other than Dissenting Company Stockholders (as defined in Section 1.6 below)) an aggregate of 30,000,000 shares of Parent Common Stock (as defined in Section 3.2 below) with each Company Stockholder receiving a pro rata portion of such shares based upon the total number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”), held by such Company Stockholder immediately prior to the Effective Time , subject to adjustment as necessary due to rounding as set forth in Section 1.7. The shares of Parent Common Stock for which the shares of Company Common Stock are exchanged pursuant to this Section shall be referred to herein as the “Merger Shares.”

(b) The Parent shall deliver Merger Shares in either certificated or book entry form, as determined in the Parent’s sole discretion, to each Company Stockholder entitled thereto who shall have presented a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Company Common Stock to be converted into Merger Shares pursuant to this Section 1.5 (the “Company Stock Certificates”). If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Parent’s transfer agent may, in its sole discretion and as a condition to the issuance of any Merger Shares, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit with respect to such Company Stock Certificate.

(c) Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Acquisition Subsidiary shall be cancelled.

1.6 Dissenting Shares. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Dissenting Shares” means shares of Company Common Stock held as of the Effective Time by a Company Stockholder who has not voted such Company Stock in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and the Merger and with respect to which appraisal shall have been duly demanded and perfected in accordance with Section 262 of the Delaware Act and not effectively withdrawn or forfeited prior to the Effective Time (each, a Dissenting Company Stockholder”). Dissenting Shares shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock unless such Company Stockholder’s right to appraisal shall have ceased in accordance with the Delaware Act. If such Company Stockholder has so forfeited or withdrawn his, her or its right to appraisal of Dissenting Shares, then (i) as of the occurrence of such event, such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall cease to be Dissenting Shares and shall be converted into and represent the right to receive the Merger Shares issuable in respect of such Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.5(a), and (ii) promptly following the occurrence of such event and, if requested by Parent, the proper surrender of such person’s Company Stock Certificate, the Parent shall deliver to such Company Stockholder a certificate representing the Merger Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.5(a), or issue such Merger Shares in book entry form.

1.7 Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional Merger Shares shall be issued to Company Stockholders on the surrender for exchange of shares of Company Common Stock, and such Company Stockholders shall not be entitled to any voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or distributions or other rights as a stockholder of the Parent with respect to any fractional Merger Shares that would have otherwise been issued to such Company Stockholders. In lieu of any fractional Merger Shares that would have otherwise been issuable, each former Company Stockholder that would have been entitled to receive a fractional share shall, on proper surrender of such person’s Company Stock Certificates, receive such whole number of Merger Shares as is equal to the precise number of Merger Shares to which such Company Stockholder would be entitled, rounded up to the nearest whole number.

1.8 Options and Warrants. As of the Effective Time, there are no outstanding options, warrants, or other rights to purchase shares of capital stock of the Company.

1.9 Directors and Officers. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parent, Acquisition Subsidiary, the Company or the holders of any shares of capital stock of any of the foregoing, the directors and officers of the Company shall remain as the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation until the earlier of their resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly appointed and qualified, as the case may be, and the Surviving Corporation and the Parent shall take any necessary actions (whether prior to, at or after the Effective Time) as shall be necessary or appropriate to effectuate or carry out the purpose of this Section 1.9.

1.10 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Acquisition Subsidiary, the Company or the holders of any shares of capital stock of any of the foregoing; provided that the Surviving Corporation or Parent may make any necessary filings in the State of Delaware as shall be necessary or appropriate to effectuate or carry out fully the purpose of this Section 1.10:

(a) the certificate of incorporation of the Company in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until duly amended or repealed; and

(b) the bylaws of the Company in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until duly amended or repealed.

1.11 No Further Rights. From and after the Effective Time, no shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding, and holders of Company Common Stock, certificated or uncertificated, shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except as provided herein or by applicable Law, other than the right to receive Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger.

1.12 Closing of Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and no transfer of Company Common Stock shall thereafter be made. If, after the Effective Time, Company Stock Certificates are presented to the Parent or the Surviving Corporation, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for Merger Shares in accordance with Section 1.5, subject to the provisions hereof and applicable Law in the case of Dissenting Shares.

1.13 Exemption from Registration; Rule 144. The Parent and the Company intend that the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 1.5 hereof will be issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), by reason of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) thereunder, and that all recipients of such shares of Parent Common Stock (as defined in Section 3.2 below) shall be “accredited investors” as such term is defined in Regulation D, or, within the meaning of Rule 701 of the Securities Act, were employees or directors of the Company, its parent or its majority-owned subsidiaries or were consultants who were natural persons and who provided bonafide services to the Company, its parent or its majority-owned subsidiaries (provided that such services were not in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital raising transaction and did not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for the Company’s securities), and, in each case, who received the Company Common Stock pursuant to a compensatory benefit plan, or are family members of employees, directors or consultants who acquired such securities by gift or domestic relations orders. The shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 1.5 hereof will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may not be offered, sold, pledged, assigned or otherwise transferred unless (i) a registration statement with respect thereto is effective under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or (ii) an exemption from such registration exists and the Parent receives an opinion of counsel to the holder of such securities, which counsel and opinion are satisfactory to the Parent, that such securities may be offered, sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in the manner contemplated without an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; and such shares of Parent Common Stock will bear an appropriate legend and restriction on the books of the Parent’s transfer agent to that effect.

1.14 Certain Tax Matters. Each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. None of the Parties shall take any action, or fail to take any action, that could reasonably be expected to cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The Parties intend to report and, except to the extent otherwise required by a “final determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code, shall report, for all tax purposes, the Merger as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

ARTICLE II
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

As an inducement to the Parent to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, except as set forth in the Company’s disclosure schedules attached hereto (the “Company Disclosure Schedules”) (it being agreed that any matter disclosed in any Section of the Company Disclosure Schedules will be deemed to apply to and qualify the Section of this Article II to which it corresponds in number and each other Section of this Article II to the extent that it is reasonably apparent on its face that such information is applicable to such other Section), the Company represents and warrants to the Parent and the Acquisition Subsidiary as follows:

2.1 Organization, Qualification and Corporate Power. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction in which the nature of its businesses or the ownership or leasing of its properties requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined below). The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on the businesses in which it is engaged and to own and use the properties owned and used by it. The Company has furnished or made available to the Parent complete and accurate copies of its certificate of incorporation and bylaws. The Company is not in default under or in violation of any provision of its certificate of incorporation, as amended to date, its bylaws, as amended to date, or any mortgage, indenture, lease, license or any other agreement or instrument except where such default or violation would not be reasonably expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Material Adverse Effect” means a material adverse effect on the assets, business, financial condition, or results of operations of the Company taken as a whole; provided, that, in no event shall any effects (whether alone or in combination) resulting from or arising in connection with any of the following be deemed to constitute, nor shall any of the following be taken into account in determining whether there has occurred, a Company Material Adverse Effect: (a) conditions generally affecting the industries in which the Company participates or the U.S. or global economy or capital markets as a whole; (b) any failure by the Company to meet internal projections or forecasts or revenue or earnings predictions; (c) the execution, delivery, announcement or performance of the obligations under this Agreement or the announcement, pendency or anticipated consummation of the Merger; (d) any natural disaster or any acts of terrorism, sabotage, military action or war or any escalation or worsening thereof; (e) any changes (after the date of this Agreement) in GAAP (as defined in Section 2.7 below), other applicable accounting rules or applicable Law, or changes or developments in political, regulatory or legislative conditions, or (f) the taking of any action required by this Agreement.

The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 25,000,000 shares of which 20,000,000 have been designated as Company Common Stock, and 5,000,000 have been designated as “blank check” preferred stock (“Company Preferred Stock”). As of the date of this Agreement, and as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and without giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documentation, 19,986,667 shares of Company Common Stock, and no shares of Company Preferred Stock, are issued and outstanding. No other shares of Company Stock are issued and outstanding, and no shares of Company Common Stock are held in the treasury of the Company. Schedule 2.2 of the Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete and accurate list of all of the Company Stockholders together with the number of shares of Company Common Stock each holds. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and, effective as of the Effective Time, free of all preemptive rights, and have been or will be issued in accordance with applicable laws, including, without limitation, the Securities Act. Other than as set forth on Schedule 2.2 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, there are no outstanding or authorized options, warrants, securities, rights, agreements or commitments to which the Company is a party or which are binding upon the Company providing for the issuance or redemption of any of Company Common Stock or pursuant to which any outstanding Company Common Stock is subject to vesting. There are no outstanding or authorized stock appreciation, phantom stock or similar rights with respect to the Company. Other than as listed in Schedule 2.2 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, there are no agreements to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound with respect to the voting (including, without limitation, voting trusts or proxies), registration under the Securities Act, or sale or transfer (including, without limitation, agreements relating to pre-emptive rights, rights of first refusal, co-sale rights or “drag-along” rights) of any securities of the Company. To the knowledge of the Company, there are no agreements among other parties, to which the Company is not a party and by which it is not bound, with respect to the voting (including, without limitation, voting trusts or proxies) or sale or transfer (including, without limitation, agreements relating to rights of first refusal, co-sale rights or “drag-along” rights) of any securities of the Company.
