3. PURCHASE PRICE AND PAYMENT.
3.1 PURCHASE PRICE. In consideration of the sale, transfer and conveyance
to Acquiror of the Purchased Assets, Acquiror shall, at the Closing, issue and
transfer to Transferor approximately two hundred forty two million, three
hundred thirty-five thousand (242,335,000) shares of MaxxZone common stock (the
"COMMON STOCK") of Acquiror (the "SHARES"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
immediately following the Closing the aggregate percentage ownership of
outstanding shares of Common Stock of Acquiror owned by Transferor is less than
85% (which amount represents the target percentage ownership of Acquiror by
Transferor immediately following the Closing), then Acquiror will issue to
Transferor that additional number of shares of Common Stock of Acquiror to
increase the percentage ownership of Acquiror to 85%. The number of Shares to be
transferred to Transferor shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the effect
of any stock split, reverse split, stock dividend, reorganization,
recapitalization or other like change with respect to Transferor's common stock
occurring after the Effective Date and prior to Closing, so as to provide
Transferor the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to
such stock split, reverse split, stock dividend, reorganization,
recapitalization, or like change. The consideration described in this Section
3.1 is herein referred to as the "PURCHASE PRICE." At Closing, Acquiror shall
deliver a certificate(s) representing the Shares to Transferor in accordance
with SCHEDULE 3.1 hereto.
3.2 TAX AND ACCOUNTING CONSEQUENCES. As a result of the transfer of the
Shares to Transferor, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, there may be certain Tax and accounting consequences to the
shareholders of the Transferor (the "TRANSFEROR SHAREHOLDERS"), who will be the
ultimate recipients of the Shares. Acquiror makes no representations or
warranties or any kind, nor are any intended or should any be inferred,
regarding the economic return or the tax consequences to the transferor
shareholders who will acquire the shares. Acquiror, therefore, recommends that
the transferor shareholders consult their own attorneys, accountants and
financial advisors about the legal and tax consequences and the financial risks
and merits of receiving the Shares.
3.3 PRICE REDUCTION UPON CERTAIN EVENTS. In the event of any damage to or
destruction or condemnation of any of the Purchased Assets (excluding damage or
destruction caused by Acquiror or any of its affiliates), any taking of any of
the Purchased Assets by eminent domain or any material adverse change to the
Transferor's business, operations or financial condition between the Effective
Date and the Closing Date, Acquiror shall have the right, by notice given to
Transferor within five (5) days of such event (but in any case prior to the
Closing Date), to terminate this Agreement. If Acquiror does not elect to
terminate this Agreement, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal
to the resulting reduction in the value of the Purchased Assets, which shall be
attributed to the Transferor whose respective Purchased Assets were so damaged,
destroyed or condemned. Transferor shall be entitled to retain any insurance
proceeds or condemnation awards paid or payable on account of such damage or
destruction or such taking. Transferor and Acquiror agree to negotiate in good
faith regarding the reduction in value resulting from any damage to or
destruction or condemnation of the Purchased Assets.
4. PRE-CLOSING MATTERS.
