2005 by and among   Bangla   Property   Management,   Inc.,   a Colorado   corporation

("Parent"), China Property Holding, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Merger Sub"),

and Wollaston   Industrial   Limited,   ("the   Company") a British   Virgin   Islands

("BVI") limited liability corporation.

 

                                R E C I T A L S:

 

     A. The   respective   Boards of   Directors   of Parent   and the   Company   have

determined   that an acquisition of the Company by Merger Sub and then the merger

of   Merger   Sub with and into the   Parent   (the   "Merger"),   upon the   terms and

subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement,   would be fair and in the

best interests of their   respective   shareholders,   and such Boards of Directors

have   approved   such   Merger,   pursuant to which   shares of Common   Stock of the

Company ("Company Common Stock") issued and outstanding immediately prior to the

Effective   Time of the Merger (as defined in Section 1.03) will be exchanged for

the right to receive Common Stock of Parent   ("Parent   Common Stock") other than

Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 2.01(d)).

 

     B.    Parent,    Merger   Sub   and   the    Company    desire   to   make    certain

representations,   warranties,   covenants and   agreements in connection   with the

Merger and also to prescribe various conditions to the Merger.

 

     C. For federal   income tax   purposes,   the   parties   intend that the Merger

shall   qualify as a   reorganization   under the   provisions of Section 368 of the

Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

 

     NOW,   THEREFORE,   in   consideration   of   the   representations,   warranties,

covenants   and   agreements   contained in this   Agreement,   the parties   agree as

follows:

                              EFFECT OF THE MERGER

                              ON THE CAPITAL STOCK

                         OF THE CONSTITUENT CORPORATIONS

 

2.01 Effect on Capital Stock. As of the Effective Time of the Merger,   by virtue

----------------------------

of the Merger   and   without   any action on the part of the   holders of shares of

Company Common Stock or any shares of capital stock of Merger Sub:

 

     (a)   Company-Owned   Common   Stock of Merger Sub. All the   Company's   shares

issued and   outstanding   prior to the Merger   ("Company   Common Stock") shall be

converted into 100 shares of common stock of the Merger Sub prior to the Merger.

Each share of common   stock of Merger Sub   issued   and   outstanding   immediately

prior   to the   Effective   Time of the   Merger   owned   by the   Company   shall   be

converted   into   226,750   shares of Common   Stock of the Parent and shall be the

issued and   outstanding   capital   stock of the   Parent.   In the   aggregate,   the

Company-owned   common stock of the Merger Sub shall be converted into 22,675,000

shares of the Parent.

 

     (b) Cancellation of Parent-Owned   Merger Sub Common Stock. The Parent shall

own 900 shares of commons tock of the Merger Sub prior to the Merger. Each share

of   Common   Stock   of   the   Merger   Sub   that   is   owned   by   the   Parent   shall

automatically   be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist,   and no Parent

Common   Stock or   other   consideration   shall be   delivered   or   deliverable   in

exchange therefor.

 

     (c) Issuance and Transfer of Parent Common   Stock.   The   22,675,000   Parent

Shares to be issued by the Parent to the Company's shareholders pursuant to this

Agreement   constituting   approximately   seventy-five   point fifty eight per cent

(75.58%) of the total outstanding shares of the common stock of the Parent shall

be delivered by the Parent to Baker & Mackenzie LLP (the   "Exchange   Agent") and

shall be known as the "Merger Consideration."

 

     (d) Dissenting   Shares.   Notwithstanding   anything in this Agreement to the

contrary,   shares of Company   Common   Stock issued and   outstanding   immediately

prior to the Effective   Time of the Merger held by a holder (if any) who has the

right to demand   payment for and an appraisal   of such shares as provided   under

BVI law, if   applicable,   ("Dissenting   Shares")   shall not be converted   into a

right to receive   Merger   Consideration   unless such holder   fails to perfect or

otherwise   loses such holder's   right to such payment or appraisal,   if any. If,

after the   Effective   Time of the Merger,   such holder fails to perfect or loses

any such right to appraisal,   each such share of such holder shall be treated as

a share that had been   converted as of the Effective Time of the Merger into the

right to receive Merger   Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.01. The

Company   shall   give   prompt   notice to Parent of any   demands   received   by the

Company for appraisal of shares of Company   Common Stock,   and Parent shall have

the right to participate in all   negotiations   and   proceedings   with respect to

 

 

 

                                        3

such demands.   The Company shall not,   except with the prior written   consent of

Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such

demands.

--------------------

outstanding warrants to purchase Parent Common Stock.

 

2.03 Exchange of Certificates.

-----------------------------

 

     (a) Exchange of   Certificates.   As soon as reasonably   practicable as of or

after   the   Effective   Time   of   the   Merger,   Parent   shall   issue   the   Merger

Consideration.

 

     (b) Settlement   Date. The settlement date as set forth herein shall be such

date which is six months from the   Effective   Time of the Merger and the date of

the resolution of any Contests further to Section 8.03 herein.

 

     (c) Exchange   Procedures.   At the Effective Time of the Merger, each holder

of an outstanding   certificate or certificates   which prior thereto   represented

shares of Company   Common Stock shall,   upon   surrender of such   certificate   or

certificates   and   acceptance   be   entitled   to a   certificate   or   certificates

representing   the   number   of   shares   of Parent   Common   Stock   into   which the

aggregate   number of shares of Company   Common Stock   previously   represented by

such certificate or certificates   surrendered shall have been converted pursuant

to this Agreement.   The Company shareholders shall accept such certificates upon

compliance   with such   reasonable   terms   and   conditions   to effect an   orderly

exchange   thereof in accordance   with normal exchange   practices.   All shares of

Company   Common Stock shall be   surrendered at the Effective Time of the Merger.

After the Effective   Time of the Merger,   there shall be no further   transfer on

the records of the Company or its transfer   agent of   certificates   representing

shares of Company Common Stock.   If any certificate for such Parent Common Stock

is to be issued in a name other than that in which the   certificate   for Company

Common Stock surrendered for exchange is registered,   it shall be a condition of

such exchange that the   certificate so surrendered   shall be properly   endorsed,

with signature guaranteed, or otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the

person   requesting   such exchange   shall pay to Parent or its transfer agent any

transfer   or other taxes or other   costs   required by reason of the   issuance of

certificates   for such   Parent   Common   Stock in a name   other   than that of the

registered   holder   of   the   certificate    surrendered,    or   establish   to   the

satisfaction of Parent or its transfer agent that all taxes have been paid.

 

     (d) No Further   Ownership   Rights in Company   Common   Stock.   All shares of

Parent   Common Stock   issued upon the   surrender   for   exchange of   certificates

representing shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this

Article II shall be deemed to have been issued   (and paid) in full   satisfaction

of all   rights   pertaining   to the shares of Company   Common   Stock   theretofore

represented by such certificates.

 

     (e) No   Liability.   None of Parent,   Merger Sub,   or the   Company   shall be

liable to any   person in   respect   of any   shares   of   Parent   Common   Stock (or

dividends or distributions   with respect thereto) delivered to a public official

pursuant to any   applicable   abandoned   property,   escheat or similar   law.   All

certificates   representing   shares   of   Company   Common   Stock   shall   have been

surrendered at the Effective Time of the Merger.
