and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
(1) PLAN OF REORGANIZATION.
Stockholders of Acquiree are the owners of all of the issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of Acquiree. It is the intention of the parties hereto
that all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Acquiree shall
be acquired by Acquiror in exchange solely for Acquiror's voting restricted
common stock. It is the intention of the parties hereto that this transaction
qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and related sections thereunder.
(2) EXCHANGE OF SHARES.
Acquiror and Stockholders agree that all of the issued and outstanding shares of
capital stock of Acquiree will consist, at the Closing Date (the "Closing
Date"), of 52,000 shares of common stock which will be exchanged with Acquiror
for 2,640,313 shares of voting
4
restricted common stock of Acquiror. The Acquiror shares will as soon as
practicable after the Closing Date, as hereafter defined, be delivered to the
Stockholders in exchange for their shares in Acquiree. Stockholders represent
and warrant that they will hold such shares of common stock of Acquiror for
investment purposes and not for further public distribution and agree that the
shares shall be appropriately restricted.
(3) DELIVERY OF SHARES.
On or before the Closing Date, Stockholders will deliver certificates

so as to make Acquiror the sole holder thereof, free and clear of all claims and
encumbrances. Such shares of Acquiree will be appropriately restricted as to
transfer. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, delivery of the
Acquiror shares, which will be appropriately restricted as to transfer, will be
