WHEREAS, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Stockholder will exchange 100 shares of common stock of the Company, constituting 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, for consideration as follows (the “Exchange”):

2.
Within 9 months of the Effective Time (or such later time as may be agreed in writing by each of the parties hereto), EGDI will assume the accounts payable loan guarantees currently provided by the Stockholder and in the amount as per the November 30, 2006 audited balance sheet of the Company.
3.
EGDI will issue the Stockholder 10,000,000 shares of EGDI’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share restricted under Rule 144 and a promissory note payable to the Stockholder in the amount of $Cdn 150,000 due 4 months following the Effective Time (or such later time as may be agreed in writing by each of the parties hereto).
As security for the indebtedness represented by the Note delivered by EGDI at the Closing under this Agreement, upon the delivery of the Note to the Stockholder, Stockholder shall deposit the stock certificate for the 100 shares of the Company and EGDI will deposit the stock certificate for 10,000,000 shares. with a Trustee to be agreed upon by the parties, to be held in Trust by the Trustee until (i) full payment of the principal amount of the Note and (ii) full payment to Stockholder of the principal amount of Seller's loan to the Company. In the event that EGDI fails to meet the dates specified in items 2 and 3 above (or such other dates as may be agreed in writing by each of the parties hereto), the shares of the Company will revert to the Stockholder, the shares of EGDI will revert to EGDI and all payments due under this Agreement will become null.
As a result of the Exchange EGDI will thus acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding securities of the Company, making EGDI the sole stockholder of the Company.
WHEREAS, for federal income tax purposes, the Exchange is intended to qualify as a reorganization under the provisions of section 368(a)(1)(B) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"); and.
