The Company holds a majority stake in the Contract between ViVA Uganda and the Buganda Land Board, which provides the revenue base to make dividend payments and to repurchase the preferred stock at maturity. Dividends for the stock rank as a senior debt obligation from ViVA Uganda to the Corporation, and from the Corporation to the shareholder.

(a) The Corporation shall not declare or pay any dividends or distributions on shares of Common Stock until the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding shall have first received, or simultaneously receive, a like distribution on each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock, in an amount at least equal to the product of the per share amount, if any, of the dividends or distributions to be declared, paid or set aside for the Common Stock.
(b) Dividends shall be paid annually to Series A Preferred Stock shareholders, at 10% of face value of the Stock. Dividend payments rank pari passu with all unsecured obligations of the

(a) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Project Company, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Project Company available for distribution to its stockholders, but before any payment shall be made to the holders of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock ranking on liquidation junior to the Series A Preferred Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount equal to $100 per share (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization affecting such shares), plus any dividends declared but unpaid on such shares. If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Project Company the remaining assets of the Project Company available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock in the Corporation the full amount to which they shall be entitled, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the remaining assets and funds of the Project Company in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise
be payable in respect of the shares held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full.
(b) After the payment of all preferential amounts required to be paid to the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking on Project Company liquidation prior to and in preference to the Common Stock, upon the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Project Company, the remaining assets and funds of the Project Company available for distribution to its stockholders shall be distributed among the shareholders of the Project Company.

(b) If the Project Company has not repaid the Promissory Note to the Corporation, or if for any other reason the funds of the Corporation legally available for redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock on any Mandatory Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock required under this Section 6 to be redeemed on such date, those funds which are legally available will be used to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares ratably in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock if the funds of the Corporation legally available therefor had been sufficient to redeem all shares required to be redeemed on such date. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation become legally available for the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock, such funds will be used, at the end of the next succeeding fiscal quarter, to
redeem, to the extent of the available funds and in the same proportion as set forth in the preceding
sentence, the balance of the shares which the Corporation was theretofore obligated to redeem.
(c) Unless there shall have been a default in payment of the Mandatory Redemption Price, on the applicable Mandatory Redemption Date all rights of each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock as a stockholder of the Corporation by reason of the ownership of such shares will cease, except the right to receive the Mandatory Redemption Price for such shares, without interest, upon presentation and surrender of the certificate representing such shares, and such shares will not from and after such Mandatory Redemption Date be deemed to be outstanding.
(d) Any Series A Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 6 will be cancelled and will not under any circumstances be reissued, sold or transferred and the Corporation may from time to

shall require only the written consent or affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, acting as a single class.
(b) So long as at least 10,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization affecting
such shares) are outstanding (or such lesser number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock as are then outstanding if the Corporation has, prior to such time, failed to redeem shares of Series A Preferred Stock when such redemption was due in accordance with Section 6 above), the Corporation shall not, without the prior written consent of the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock representing at least a majority of the combined votes represented by the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock:

8. Transfer Rights
(a) The Corporation shall not restrict the transfer of Series A Preferred Stock, so long as the transfer does not violate SEC or state securities laws.
Dividend Coupons - Coincident with Series A Preferred Stock
Dividend Coupons are issued at the same time as Series A Preferred Stock, in proportion to the amount of Stock issued. Dividend Coupons give the coupon holder the right to a fixed percentage of dividends declared by The Project Company after the Mandatory Redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock is completed. The percentage is fixed at the original time of stock purchase, and is equivalent to 0.0003% per share of stock. Coupons are not sold independently from Series A Preferred Stock, are issued in tandem with the stock, and constitute a separate covenant between
the Corporation and the Coupon holder once the stock is redeemed.
1. Underlying Investment.
(a) The underlying value of the Coupons are derived from a Ugandan project company, ViVA Compliance Technologies Uganda Ltd ("ViVA Uganda" or "Project Company"), that is held by an Affiliate of the Corporation. The Company holds a majority stake in the Contract between ViVA Uganda and the Buganda Land Board, which provides the revenue base to make dividend payments on the Coupons.
2. Dividends.
(a) When the Project Company declares a dividend, a fixed percentage of that dividend will be transferred to the Corporation, which will then be issued to Coupon holders prorated to the original Shareholding of the purchaser of the Series A Preferred Stock. Dividend payments on the Coupons are solely dependent upon a dividend declaration and distribution from the Project Company to the Corporation.
(b) When a dividend is declared, dividends will be paid annually within thirty days of the end of the Calendar Year
(c) Dividends to Coupon holders will only be paid (i) after Mandatory Redemption is completed, and (ii) when the Project Company declares a dividend.
3. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up; Certain Mergers, Consolidations and Asset Sales of the Project Company.
(a) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Project
Company, the holders of Coupons will not be entitled to any compensation.
(b) In the event of a sale of the Project Company after Mandatory Redemption is completed, Coupon holders are entitled to redemption under the terms set forth in (6) below.
4. Voting.
(a) Coupons have no voting rights.
5. Right to Registration
(a) Coupons will not be registered for public sale.
6. Redemption.
(a) Coupons have a $0 face value, and will not be redeemed by the Company unless (i) the Project Company is sold after Mandatory Redemption, and (ii) the future value of the Coupons are quantified and included in the sales price of the Project Company. The Corporation will use best efforts to include such quantification and valuation in any sale of the Project Company, but cannot guarantee that the Coupons will have residual value.
Dividend Policy
ViVA will pay dividends on Shares annually, calculated from the time of issuance, in the form of a cash payment in US Dollars. Dividends for Shares will be distributed in the form of a check or wire transfer within 5 business days of the end of each year or ownership until the Shares are repurchased by the Company, or in the event of Project failure until Project failure is declared by ViVA. Project failure will be declared in the event that ViVA abandons or otherwise declares the Project as a loss maker and unrecoverable. If ViVA sells the Project, Shares and Coupons will be redeemed at fair market value as determined by ViVA management and a qualified third party independent assessment, and in accordance with the terms of the sale.
If Shares are repurchased at the Maturity Date, then Shareholders will return their Share Certificates for payment. If ViVA is unable to repurchase the Shares at the Maturity Date for any reason, Shareholders will be provided with a notice describing the reason and including management's assessment for the timing and likelihood of repurchase. Unless the underlying project fails to generate profits or ViVA abandons, sells, or otherwise declares the project as unrecoverable, ViVA will continue to pay the fixed interest on the Shares until the Share repurchase is completed.
In the event that ViVA can buy back some, but not all, of the Shares, Share purchase priority will be equal to all investors.
After the Share repurchase is complete, ViVA will pay dividends on the Coupons according to the annual results of ViVA Uganda and any profit generated by the Contract between ViVA Uganda and the Buganda Land Board, which will be tabulated at the end of each calendar year. Once ViVA Uganda closes the books at the end of the year, ViVA management will review revenue projections and operating costs to determine an appropriate level of working capital to leave in the company. Remaining profit after local taxes are paid or withheld for payment will be issued as a
Dividend. Based on the majority ownership of the underlying Contract between ViVA Uganda and the Buganda Land Board, ViVA will will transfer 15% of the declared Dividend if the offering is fully subscribed, and will transfer a prorated amount equal to 0.0003% for every Unit subscribed if not fully subscribed, to the Company for distribution to Coupon holders. ViVA expects to make
the dividend determination, and if applicable the transfer, within 30 days of the end of each
calendar year.
Any coupon payments, if applicable, will be prorated to the amount of time left in the calendar year during the first year after repurchase of the Preferred Shares.
Example calculation: In a calendar year, ViVA Uganda posts a net after tax profit of $1.25 million. ViVA management determines that ViVA Uganda should keep $250,000 in working capital to
fund operations for the subsequent year, and $1 million is remaining to be declared as a Dividend. Each Dividend Coupon retains the right to a 0.0003% share in the declared Dividend of $1 million.
$1 million * 0.0003% * 1 share = $3. If the full $5 million offering is subscribed, then the total dividends distributed to Coupon holders would be $1 million * 50,000 shares * 0.0003% =
$150,000, which is equal to 15% of the total dividends declared by the company.
