Purchase Price. The PARENT is paying the equivalent of $0.65 in TRUSTCASH Preferred Shares currency for each PAIVIS Common Share. (the “Purchase Price”)

(i)         EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES. After the Effective Time and pursuant to a customary letter of transmittal or other instructional form provided by the Exchange Agent (hereafter defined) to each of the Shareholders (as appropriate, the “Stockholders”) of the TARGET Common Stock, the Stockholders shall be required to surrender all the TARGET Common Stock to the stock transfer agent of the Parent (Signature Stock Transfer, Inc., 2301 Ohio Drive, Suite 100, Plano, Texas, 75093) upon such surrender to receive in exchange

Fractional shares shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

 

(iv)         FULL SATISFACTION OF RIGHTS. All Issuable Shares into which the TARGET Common Stock shall have been converted pursuant to this Article 1 shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the TARGET Common Stock.

 

(v)          CANCELLATION OF CERTIFICATES. All certificates representing TARGET Common Stock converted into Issuable Shares pursuant to this Article I shall be canceled upon delivery thereof to the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(vi)         CLOSING OF TRANSFER BOOKS. On the Effective Date, the stock transfer book of TARGET shall be deemed to be closed and no transfer of Private Shares shall thereafter be recorded thereon.

 

SECTION 1.10 REGISTRATION OF ISSUABLE SHARES

 

The Parent shall file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) to register the Issuable Shares within ninety (90) days after issuance of the Issuable Shares.

 

The Parent shall use best efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, such registration under the applicable Securities Act (the “Act”) (including, without limitation, filing post-effective amendments, appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws, and appropriate compliance with the Act) as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of the Series B Stock.

 

Although stated under this paragraph that the holders of Series B Stock have the right to have their Series B shares registered for resale with the Commission there can be no assurance given by the Parent on the time period it may take to approve the registration of such shares, or that the Commission will ultimately declare the proposed registration statement covering those shares to be effective.

 

SECTION 1.11 LISTING OF ISSUABLE SHARES FOR TRADING

 

The Parent will make application for the listing of the Series B Stock for trading on the exchange or quotation system that the Parent’s common stock is then listed on or other senior exchange or quotation system that the Parent plans to make application to list its common stock within ninety (90) days of the effectiveness of the registration of the Series B Stock.

 

Upon making application for listing the Parent will use best efforts to list the Series B Stock on the American Stock Exchange, or to cause the Series B Stock to be authorized for quotation on the NASDAQ Small Cap or National Market System, as soon as practicable (it being understood that the Parent will not be in violation of this provision if

 

5

 


 

it is unable to obtain such listing or quotation primarily as a result of its failure to satisfy the quantitative listing requirements of the American Stock Exchange or NASDAQ Small Cap or National Market).

 

SECTION 1.12 FINANCING

 

The Parties agree that Closing is subject to the execution by Parent of an agreement for an equity or debt financing to the Parent of up to Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) but no less than Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000) on terms agreeable to both Parent and Target for the purposes of completing the acquisition of Detroit Phone Cards Inc.
