Seller’s Representations and Covenants;
As part of this transaction, Reddi Brake represents to Buyer that Reddi Brake understands that Buyer is entering into this agreement in part because Reddi Brake has a commitment from Xxxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, Xx., Xxxxx Xxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx III, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxx (the “Xxxxxx Family”) regarding the conversion of debt the Xxxxxx Family is owed from Hidden Splendor Resources, Inc. into a class of preferred shares of Reddi Brake. The parties understand that conversion of debt likely will require approval of the bankruptcy court in which Hidden Splendor has filed a Chapter 11 petition. Also, Buyers participation is based in part upon the Xxxxxx Family willingness to accept shares with an approximate value of $2,000,000 of a preferred class of stock of Reddi Brake in exchange for the transfer of their interest in certain gold property, known as the Como Property, to Hidden Splendor prior to the date of this agreement.
