("Shareholders"), being the owners of record of all of the issued and
outstanding stock of GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC., a Tennessee corporation ("GHI").
WHEREAS, VOIP wishes to acquire and the Shareholders wish to transfer
all of the issued and outstanding stock of GHI in a transaction intended to
qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of IRC ss.368(a)(1)(B), as
amended.
NOW, THEREFORE, VOIP and the Shareholders adopt this plan of
reorganization and agree as follows:
SECTION 1 -- EXCHANGE OF STOCK
1.1 Number of Shares. The Shareholders agree to transfer to VOIP at
Closing (as defined herein below) the number of shares of common stock of GHI,
no par value, shown opposite their names in Exhibit A, in exchange for an
aggregate of fifteen million (15,000,000) shares of voting common stock of VOIP,
$.001 par value, to be issued at Closing to the Shareholders in the numbers
shown opposite their names in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein
by reference.
1.2 Delivery of Certificates by Shareholders. The transfer of GHI
shares by the Shareholders shall be effected by the delivery to VOIP at Closing
of certificates representing the transferred shares endorsed in blank or
accompanied by stock powers executed in blank or, alternatively, lost share
affidavits warranting to their ownership of the transferred shares.
1.3 Further Assurances. At Closing and from time to time thereafter,
the Shareholders shall execute such additional instruments and take such other
action as VOIP may request in order more effectively to sell, transfer and
assign the transferred stock to VOIP and to confirm VOIP's title thereto.
1.4 Changes in VOIP's Capitalization. If between the date of this
Agreement and Closing, the outstanding shares of VOIP common stock are, without
the receipt of new consideration by VOIP, increased, decreased, changed into or
exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or securities of VOIP through
reorganization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock
split or similar change in VOIP's capitalization, VOIP will issue and deliver to
the Shareholders, in addition to or in lieu of the VOIP shares specified in
Section 1.1, voting stock of VOIP in equitably adjusted amounts. In the event of
any such change in VOIP's capitalization, all references to VOIP shares herein
