CONSIDERATION
2.1 Purchase Price.
The Purchase Price is an aggregate total value of $800,000 USD (the “Gross Consideration”), consisting of (i) share consideration and (ii) cash consideration, in each case, payable as follows:
Share Consideration – The share consideration will consist of such number of Common Shares (the “Share Consideration”) equal to the quotient of (A) the Gross Consideration less the Cash Consideration, divided by (B) the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares as quoted on the OTCQB for the five trading days immediately preceding the Closing (the “Per Share Value”) and shall be issued and payable by the Buyer to the Seller on the Closing Date, subject to the Share Holdback and the Share Lock-Up, as provided herein. The Share Consideration issuable to the Seller pursuant to Section 2.1 shall be issued as fully paid and non-assessable. The Seller acknowledges that the Share Consideration may be subject to regulatory hold periods, in which case the share certificates representing the Share Consideration shall bear the appropriate legends.
The Shares Consideration shall be subject to the Share Holdback and to the following contractual lock-up restrictions. Specifically, the Share Consideration shall be held in escrow by the Buyer at the Closing and released to the Seller in eight (8) equal quarterly instalments beginning at the end of the first full fiscal quarter to occur after the Closing Date (the “Share Lock-Up”), further subject to reduction pursuant to the Earn-Out Adjustment described in Section 2.3 below.
The Seller may assign the Share Consideration at closing to any entity or individual of their choosing.
Cash Consideration – The cash consideration shall be equal to the payoff amount of the Liabilities set forth on Schedule 2.1 on the Closing Date, such amount to be forth in the Payoff Letters deliverable by the Seller to the Buyer no later than 2 Business Days before the Closing Date and shall be paid directly to the parties to which the Liabilities are owed as set forth in the Payoff Letters.
2.2 Allocation of Purchase Price.
The Parties agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated, for Tax purposes, among the Purchased Assets in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 1060 of the Code and all regulations promulgated thereunder. Within twelve (12) months after the Closing, the Seller shall:
(a) complete and execute Form 8594 Asset Acquisition Statement Under Section 1060, consistent with the Statement of Allocation; and
(b) deliver copies of such form to the Purchaser.
The Parties shall file a copy of the above-referenced form applicable to it with its Tax Returns for the period which includes the Closing Date.
| 6 |
If there is an increase or decrease in consideration (the Purchase Price under this Agreement) within the meaning of Section 1.1060-1(e)(1)(ii)(B) of the Treasury Regulations after the parties have completed the Statement of Allocation or have filed their initial Form 8594 Asset Acquisition Statement, the Parties shall allocate such increase or decrease in consideration as required by and consistent with Section 1060 of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations.
2.3 Earn-Out Target.
The Share Consideration shall be subject to reduction based on the confirmation of the annual ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ generated by the Purchased Assets (the “Annual Gross ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇”) for the 12 months following the Closing Date (the “Earn-Out Period”) relative to the Annual Earn-Out Target. The “Annual Earn-Out Target” shall be 80% of Seller Target Gross ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The “Seller Target Gross ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇” shall be the annualized average monthly ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of the Seller from the Purchased Assets for each of three months ended prior to the Closing Date as certified by the completion of an independent audit providing confirmation of such monthly ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for each such month. Within 60 days of the end of the Earn-Out Period, the Buyer will deliver a statement to the Seller setting forth the Annual Gross ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Earn-Out Statement”). Upon delivery of the Earn-Out Statement, the Seller shall have 10 days to object to the Earn-Out Statement (the “Seller Objection Period”), during which period the Buyer shall grant the Seller access to the records of the Company for the sole purpose of verifying the Earn-Out Statement. By the end of the Seller Objection Period, the Seller must deliver to the Buyer an objection letter setting forth in detail any objections of the Seller to the Earn-Out Statement (the “Seller Objection Letter”). If Seller does not deliver a Seller Objection Letter, then the Seller will be deemed to have approved the Annual Gross ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ set forth in the Earn-Out Statement (“Deemed Approval”). If Seller delivers a Seller Objection Letter, the Buyer and the Seller will reasonably cooperate to resolve the objections of the Seller set forth therein for a period of 10 days from the delivery of the Seller Objection Letter (the “Resolution Period”). If the Buyer and the Seller are unable to resolve the objections of the Seller set forth in the Seller Objection Letter, then the objections will be sent to the Buyer’s independent public company accountants for a determination of the Annual Gross ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The determination of the Buyer’s independent public company accountants will be binding upon each of the parties (“Final Resolution”). Upon occurrence of the Deemed Approval or the Final Resolution, if the Annual Gross ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ are less than the Annual Earn-Out Target, then the Share Consideration shall be reduced by a number of Common Shares in an amount equal to (A) the number of Common Shares in the Shares Consideration less (B) the product of (x) the number of Common Shares in the Share Consideration multiplied by (y) the quotient of the Annual Gross ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ divided by the Seller Target Gross ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Earn-Out Adjustment”). The Common Shares deducted from the Share Consideration as a result of the Earn-Out Adjustment shall be withdrawn from the Common Shares in the Share Lock-Up and delivered back to the Company for cancellation. The value of the Common Shares deducted from the Share Consideration (determined using the Per Share Value) will be treated as an adjustment to the Gross Consideration.
2.4 Tax Consequences.
The Parties intend that the Acquisition will constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement constitutes a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that such Party is relying solely upon its own tax advisors and counsel for advice concerning the Tax consequences of the Acquisition, and that no Party provides assurances to any other Party concerning such Tax consequences.
2.5 Prorations.
Except as otherwise set forth herein, (a) all items of income and expense arising from the operation of the Purchased Assets on or before the Closing Date shall be for the account of Seller, and all items of income and expense arising from the operation of the Purchased Assets after the Closing Date shall be for the account of Buyer. Prepaid items, deposits, credits and accruals such as property taxes, rent, utilities, other service charges, rental and other payments or advances under the Assigned Contracts shall be prorated as of the Closing Date on the basis of the period of time to which such Liabilities, prepaid items and accruals apply. The Buyer and the Seller agree to promptly pay the other party any amounts which may become due based on any prorated items that are not quantified at the time of either Closing.
| 7 |
2.6 Non-Assignable Assets.
Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as an attempt or agreement to assign any agreement, Contract or Permit the assignment of which requires the consent of a Governmental Entity or other third party (to the extent otherwise intended to be assigned to the Buyer in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each, a “Non-Assignable Asset”) unless and until the relevant Governmental Entity’s or other third party’s consent to the assignment of such Non-Assignable Asset has been obtained. The Seller will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, use its best efforts to obtain the consents of the relevant third parties to the assignment to the Buyer of the Non-Assignable Assets and will cooperate with the Buyer at its request in endeavoring to obtain such consents. If, as a condition to obtaining such consent to the assignment or transfer of a Non-Assignable Asset, it shall be necessary for the Seller to cure any defaults thereunder or renew any expired Contract or Permit, then the Seller shall perform such acts, pay such sums and cure any such default and renew any such Contract or Permit. The Seller will pay when due all costs and expenses associated with obtaining such consents and will promptly reimburse the Buyer for any and all damages incurred by the Buyer or its Affiliates arising in connection with the failure to obtain a consent to a Non-Assignable Contract or the failure to obtain such consent prior to the applicable Closing at which such Contract or Permit was to be assigned. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, in the event consents to the assignment thereof cannot be obtained, the Seller shall hold such Non-Assignable Assets in trust for the Buyer and the covenants and obligations thereunder will be performed by the Buyer in the Seller’s name, and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder will be for the Buyer’s account. From and after the applicable Closing, the Seller will take or cause to be taken with respect to the Non-Assignable Assets, only such actions in its name or otherwise as the Buyer may reasonably request so as to provide the Buyer with the benefits of the Non-Assignable Assets and to effect collection of money or other consideration that becomes due and payable under the Non-Assignable Assets, and the Seller will promptly pay over to the Buyer all money or other consideration received by it in respect of all Non-Assignable Assets. As of and from the applicable Closing Date, the Seller authorizes the Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the Non-Assignable Assets, at the Buyer’s expense, to perform all the obligations and receive all the benefits of the Seller under the Non-Assignable Assets and appoints the Buyer its attorney-in-fact to act in its name on its behalf with respect thereto. Nothing in this section shall affect the Buyer’s right to indemnification hereunder.

In the event of a breach or violation by the Seller of any of the provisions hereof, the running of the Restricted Period (but not Seller’s obligations hereunder) will be tolled with respect to the Seller during the continuance of any actual breach or violation. Section 6.5 pertains to Seller agreeing not to open a lab within 3 years after the closing date.

9.4 Notice and Defense of Third Person Claims.
The obligations and liabilities of an Indemnifying Person with respect to Losses resulting from the assertion of liability by third Persons (each, a “Third Person Claim”) shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) An Indemnified Person shall promptly give written notice to the Indemnifying Persons of any Third Person Claim that might give rise to any Losses by the Indemnified Persons, stating the nature and basis of such Third Person Claim, and the amount thereof to the extent known; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Persons in notifying any Indemnifying Persons shall relieve the Indemnifying Persons from any liability or obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Person is prejudiced by the delay. Such notice shall be accompanied by copies of all relevant documentation with respect to such Third Person Claim, including any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served, any written demand or any other related document or instrument.
| 23 |
(b) If the Indemnifying Persons acknowledge in a writing delivered to the Indemnified Persons that the Indemnifying Persons shall be obligated under the terms of their indemnification obligations hereunder in connection with such Third Person Claim, then the Indemnifying Persons shall have the right to assume the defense of any Third Person Claim at their own expense and by their own counsel, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Persons.
(c) If the Indemnifying Persons shall assume the defense of a Third Person Claim, the Indemnifying Persons shall not be responsible for any legal or other defense costs subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Persons in connection with the defense thereof and the Indemnifying Persons shall nevertheless be entitled to participate in such defense with their own counsel and at their own expense. If the Indemnifying Persons do not exercise their right to assume the defense of a Third Person Claim by giving the written acknowledgement referred to in Section 8.4(b), the Indemnified Persons may defend the Third Person Claim and seek indemnity from the Indemnifying Persons for Litigation Expenses incurred in connection with such defense.
(d) If the Indemnifying Persons exercise their right to assume the defense of a Third Person Claim, they shall not make any settlement of any claims without the written consent of the Indemnified Persons, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Persons propose the settlement of any claim that is capable of settlement by the payment of money only and the Indemnified Persons do not consent thereto within twenty (20) days after the receipt of written notice thereof, any Losses incurred by the Indemnified Persons in excess of such proposed settlement shall be at the sole expense of the Indemnified Persons.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, any indemnification payments made under this Article 9 shall be characterized for all tax and other purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, as applicable. In order cover the payment of Indemnifiable Claims to the Buyer from the Seller, the Buyer will withhold 20% of the Share Consideration (the “Share Holdback”) deliverable to the Seller for a period of 12 months following the Closing. Upon final determination of an Indemnifiable Claim payable to Buyer from Seller, the Buyer shall remove and cancel from the Share Holdback such number of Common Shares as is equal to the dollar value of the Indemnifiable Claim divided by the agreed upon per share value of the Common Shares set forth in Section 2.1 for the Purchase Price. Following settlement of any Indemnifiable Claims occurring during the 12 months following the Closing, the Buyer will release and deliver all remaining Share Holdback to the Seller by delivery of a share certificate or DRS advice statement registered in the name of the Seller within 2 Business Days of the end of the 12-month period. In relation to any Indemnifiable Claim finally determined and payable by the Buyer to the Seller, the Buyer shall have the option, in the Buyer’s sole discretion, to settle such Indemnifiable Claim through the issuance of Common Shares at the Per Share Value.
| 24 |
(b) Upon Notice to Seller specifying in reasonable detail the basis therefor, the Buyer may set off any amount to which it may be entitled under this Article IX against any amounts otherwise payable under Section 2.1. Neither the exercise of not the failure to exercise such right of set off will constitute an election of remedies or limit the Buyer in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it.
9.7 Exclusive Remedy.
Except in the case of Fraud, the rights and remedies provided for in this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive rights and remedies of the Indemnified Persons with respect to any matter relating to this Agreement, or otherwise relating to the transactions contemplated hereby or arising under or in connection with this Agreement. Neither party shall avoid the limitations on liability set forth in this Article IX by seeking monetary damages for tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability other than a claim for indemnification under this Article IX. To the extent that the rights and remedies provided for in this Article IX are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be exclusive under circumstances in which no exception to exclusivity contained in this Section 9.7 applies, the provisions of Sections 9.3 and 9.5 shall apply to any remedy available to the Parties.
