WHEREAS:
A. Boundless, Acquirer, SURGE and the SURGE Shareholders (the “Parties”) entered into a Merger Agreement made as of September 3, 2002, whereby Acquirer and SURGE would merge and continue as one entity pursuant to the laws of Nevada.
B. The Parties wish to amend the Merger Agreement whereby Acquirer would instead acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of SURGE from the SURGE Shareholders such that the transaction would constitute a share exchange pursuant to the laws of Nevada (the “Share Exchange”). In connection with the Share Exchange the SURGE Shareholders will receive shares of Boundless in consideration for their shares of SURGE; and
C. It is intended that the Share Exchange shall qualify for United States federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
NOW THEREFORE THIS AMENDMENT AGREEMENT WITNESSETH THAT in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants, agreements, representations and warranties contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. |
The Merger Agreement is
hereby amended such that all references therein to Merger, Plan of Merger
(including its variant “plan of merger”), and Certificate of
Merger shall instead refer to and mean Share Exchange, Plan of Share Exchange,
and Certificate of Share Exchange respectively. |
||
2. |
The Merger Agreement is
hereby amended such that all references to Closing, and all Closing deliveries
described in Article 9 thereof, as amended hereby, will refer to the Closing
of the Share Exchange, and Closing deliveries pursuant to the Share Exchange. |
||
3. | Subsection 1.1 (x) of Article 1 to the Merger Agreement is hereby deleted. | ||
4. | Section 2.1 of Article 2 to the Merger Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following: | ||
The Share Exchange | |||
2.1 | On Closing, Boundless will issue the
Acquisition Shares to the holders of the SURGE Shares in accordance with
the SURGE Conversion Ratios set out in Schedule “S”, and the
holders of the SURGE Shares will transfer all right and title to the SURGE
Shares held by them to the Acquirer. The SURGE Shareholders agree on Closing
to tender, sell and transfer all title and ownership in and to their SURGE
Shares, free and clear of all encumbrances, liens or claims, to Acquirer,
and Acquirer agrees to take-up and purchase all SURGE Shares tendered.
SURGE and the SURGE Shareholders agree to use best efforts to obtain the
agreement of all holders of the SURGE Shares to tender their SURGE Shares
to Acquirer on Closing. The Share Exchange will be on a voluntary basis
by the holders of the SURGE Shares, other than the Surge Shareholders.
Any SURGE Shares not tendered to the Acquirer on Closing may, at the option
of Surge, be subject to compulsory acquisition in accordance with the
laws of Alberta. |
||

Effect of the Share Exchange | |||
2.2 | Upon Closing, and at the Effective Time of the Share Exchange in accordance with section 190 of Chapter 92A of the Nevada Revised Statutes, SURGE will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Acquirer. Each of Acquirer and SURGE will continue in existence as separate entities under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of incorporation or organization. |

and after the Effective Time, the SURGE Shareholders shall forthwith take
all required actions to implement internal controls on the business of
Boundless to ensure that Boundless complies with Section 13b(2) of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934; |
||
11. | Section 12.7 to the Merger
Agreement is hereby amended to include any amendment signed by all of
the Parties to the Merger Agreement as part of the entire agreement. |
||
12. | Except as specifically modified
or deleted by this Amendment Agreement, all terms, agreements and conditions
in the Merger Agreement remain in full force and effect, and where such
terms, agreements and conditions are modified by this Amendment Agreement,
they shall have the meaning and effect intended hereby. |
