Exchanged Am-Pac Stock and the Acquired Sun East Stock.
(a) The Exchanged Am-Pac Stock. The consummation of this Agreement and the
transactions herein contemplated, including the issuance of the Exchanged
Stock to the Shareholder of Sun East as contemplated hereby, constitutes
the offer and sale of securities under the Securities and Exchange Act and
applicable state statutes. The Shareholders acknowledge that the shares of
Am-Pac to be delivered to them pursuant to this Agreement have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1993 as amended, referred to in this
Agreement as the "Securities Act," or the laws of any other jurisdiction,
and that therefore the stock is not fully transferable except as permitted
under various exemptions, if any contained in the Securities Act and the
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission interpreting the act. Under
US law, Am-Pac Common Stock cannot be sold or transferred by the
shareholders unless they are subsequently registered under applicable law
or an exemption from registration is available. Am-Pac is not required to
register or assist in the registration of the Am-Pac Common Stock except as
provided herein or to make any exemption from registration available. The
provisions contained in this paragraph are intended to ensure compliance
with the Securities Act. The Shareholders represent and warrant to Am-Pac
that they are acquiring the shares of Am-Pac common stock under this
Agreement for their own account for investment, and not for the purpose of
resale or any other distribution of such shares. The Shareholders also
represent and warrant that they have no present intention of disposing of
all or any part of such shares at any particular time, for any particular
price or on the happening of any particular circumstances. They further
represent that they have such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters that they are capable of evaluating the merits and risks
of an investment in Am-Pac. The Shareholders acknowledge that Am-Pac is
relying on the truth and accuracy of these warranties and representations
in issuing the shares without first registering the shares under the
Securities Act. The Shareholders covenant and represent that none of the
shares of Am- Pac capital stock to be issued to them pursuant to this
Agreement, will be offered, sold, assigned, pledged, transferred, or
otherwise disposed of except after full compliance with all of the
applicable provisions of the 1933 act and the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the 1933 act. Therefore the
Shareholders agree not to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the shares of
Am-Pac common stock received pursuant to this agreement unless they 1. have
delivered to Am-Pac a written legal opinion in form and substance
satisfactory to counsel for Am-Pac to the effect that the disposition is
permissible under the terms of the Securities Act and regulations
interpreting the act; 2. have complied with the registration and propectus
requirements of the 1933 act relating to such disposition; or 3. have
presented Am-Pac satisfactory evidence that such a disposition is exempt
from registration under the act. Am-Pac shall place a stop transfer order
against transfers of shares until one of the conditions set forth in this
paragraph have been met. Furthermore the Shareholders agree that the
certificates evidencing the shares that they will receive under this
agreement will contain the following legend:
17
THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND HAVE BEEN TAKEN
FOR INVESTMENT. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR
SALE UNLESS A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE FEDERAL SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED IS IN EFFECT FOR THE SECURITIES, OR AN
EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT IS IN
FACT APPLICABLE TO SUCH OFFER OR SALE, AND SUCH EXEMPTION IS
EVIDENCED BY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER.
(b) The Acquired Sun East Stock. Am-Pac acknowledges that the shares of Sun
East to be delivered to Am-Pac by each Shareholder pursuant to this
Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1993 as
amended, referred to in this agreement as the "Securities Act," or the laws
of any other jurisdiction, and that therefore the stock is not fully
transferable except as permitted under various exemptions, if any contained
in the act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission
interpreting the act. The provisions contained in this paragraph are
intended to ensure compliance with the securities Act. Under US law, Sun
East Common Stock cannot be sold or transferred by Am-Pac unless they are
subsequently registered under applicable law or an exemption from
registration is available. Sun East is not required to register or assist
in the registration of the Acquired Sun East Stock or to make any exemption
from registration available. The provisions contained in this paragraph are
intended to ensure compliance with the Securities Act.. Am-Pac represents
and warrants to the Shareholders that they are acquiring the shares of Sun
East under this Agreement for its own account for investment, and not for
the purpose of resale or any other distribution of such shares. Am-Pac also
represents and warrants that it has no present intention of disposing of
all or any part of such shares at any particular time, for any particular
price or on the happening of any particular circumstances. Am-Pac further
represents that it has such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
an investment in Sun East. Furthermore Am-Pac agrees that the certificates
evidencing the shares that it will receive under this Agreement will
contain the following legend:
18

REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND HAVE BEEN TAKEN
FOR INVESTMENT. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR

EVIDENCED BY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER.
