RECITALS
A. The Board of Directors of POCO and stockholders owning a majority of the outstanding shares of PUREBASE believe it is in the best interests of each entity and their respective stockholders for POCO to acquire PUREBASE through a statutory reorganization (the “Reorganization”) and, in furtherance thereof, have approved the reorganization.
B. Pursuant to the Reorganization, among other things, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of PUREBASE shall be exchanged for shares of POCO common stock and all outstanding options, warrants or other rights to acquire or receive shares of PUREBASE shall be exchanged for the right to receive shares of Common Stock of POCO.
C. POCO and its Directors, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxx Xxx and PUREBASE desire to make certain representations and warranties and other agreements in connection with the Reorganization.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants, promises, and representations set forth herein, and for good and valuable consideration, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:
SECTION I
THE REORGANIZATION
1.1
|
Exchange of PUREBASE Capital Stock. As of the Closing Date, PUREBASE has issued 45,817,802 shares of its common stock (the “PUREBASE Capital Stock”). All stockholders of PUREBASE listed on Exhibit A (the “PUREBASE Stockholders”), as of the date of Closing as such term is defined in Section II herein (the “Closing” or the “Closing Date”), shall transfer, assign, convey and deliver to POCO on the Closing Date, certificates representing over Ninety Five percent (95.5%) of the PUREBASE Capital Stock or such lesser percentage as shall be acceptable to POCO, but in no event less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the PUREBASE Capital Stock. The transfer of the PUREBASE Capital Stock shall be made free and clear of all liens, mortgages, pledges, encumbrances or charges, whether disclosed or undisclosed, except as the PUREBASE Stockholders and POCO shall have otherwise agreed in writing.
|
1.2
|
Issuance of POCO Exchange Stock to PUREBASE Stockholders. As consideration for the transfer, assignment, conveyance and delivery of the PUREBASE Capital Stock hereunder, POCO shall, at the Closing, issue to the PUREBASE Stockholders, pro rata in accordance with each Stockholder’s percentage ownership of PUREBASE immediately prior to the Closing, certificates representing an aggregate of Forty Five Million Eight Hundred and Seventeen Thousand Eight Hundred and Two (45,817,802) shares of POCO common stock (the “POCO Exchange Stock”). The “Exchange Ratio” shall be one-to-one (1-for-1) whereby one (1) share of POCO Stock will be exchanged for one (1) share of PUREBASE Capital Stock. The parties intend that the POCO Exchange Shares being issued will be used to acquire all outstanding PUREBASE Capital Stock. The transfer of PUREBASE Capital Stock and the issuance of POCO Exchange Stock described in this Agreement shall be referred to as the “Exchange Transaction”.
|
1.3
|
PUREBASE Stock Options. PUREBASE will have no outstanding options, warrants or any other right to purchase PUREBASE’s common stock on the Closing Date.
|
1.4
|
POCO Exchange Stock to be Free and Clear of Encumbrances. The issuance of the POCO Exchange Stock shall be made free and clear of all liens, mortgages, pledges, encumbrances or charges, whether disclosed or undisclosed, except as the PUREBASE Stockholders and POCO shall have otherwise agreed in writing. As provided herein, and immediately after the Closing, POCO shall have issued and outstanding: (i) not more than 70,217,802 shares of Common Stock of which 6,000,000 shall be freely tradable; and (ii) shall have no preferred stock issued and outstanding.
|
1.5
|
POCO Exchange Stock to be Restricted. None of the POCO Exchange Stock issued to the PUREBASE Stockholders, nor any of the PUREBASE Capital Stock transferred to POCO hereunder shall, at the time of Closing, be registered under U.S. securities laws but, rather, shall be issued pursuant to an exemption therefrom and be considered “restricted stock” within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). All of the issued POCO Exchange Stock shall bear a legend worded substantially as follows:
|
“The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) and are ‘restricted securities’ as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Act. The shares may not be offered for sale, sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act, the availability of which is to be established to the satisfaction of the Company.”
|
The respective transfer agents of POCO and PUREBASE shall annotate their records to reflect the restrictions on transfer embodied in the legend set forth above. There shall be no requirement that POCO register the POCO Exchange Stock under the 1933 Act, nor shall PUREBASE or the PUREBASE Stockholders be required to register any PUREBASE Capital Stock under the 1933 Act.
|
1.6
|
Effect of Reorganization. Upon the consummation of the Exchange Transaction and the issuance and transfer of the POCO Exchange Stock as set forth above, PUREBASE Stockholders listed in Exhibit A will hold approximately sixty-two percent (62%) of the then-outstanding common stock of POCO representing a controlling interest in POCO. The Exchange Transaction will result in PUREBASE becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of POCO.
|
1.7
|
Tax and Accounting Consequences. The Reorganization contemplated by this Agreement is intended to constitute an exchange as contemplated by the provisions of Sections 351 and 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Each party has consulted its own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of the Reorganization.
