The number of shares of HJH Stock to be received by each Shareholder is listed opposite each such Shareholder’s name on Annex B. The aggregate number of shares of HJH Stock that is reflected on Annex B is referred to in this Agreement as the “Shares”.
B. The exchange of ANC Stock for HJH Stock is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
C. The Board of Directors of each of HJH and ANC has determined that it is desirable to effect the plan of reorganization and share exchange.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties agree as follows:

1.2. Closing.

ARTICLE II
Representations and Warranties of the Shareholders
Each of the Shareholders hereby severally (and not jointly) represents and warrants to HJH with respect to itself, as follows:
2.1. Good Title. The Shareholder is the record and beneficial owner, and has good title to its ANC Stock, with the right and authority to sell and deliver such ANC Stock. Upon delivery of any certificate or certificates duly assigned, representing the same as herein contemplated and/or upon registering of HJH as the new owner of such ANC Stock in the share register of ANC, HJH will receive good title to such ANC Stock, free and clear of all Liens.
2.2. Pre-emptive Rights. The Shareholder has no pre-emptive rights or any other rights to acquire any ANC Stock that have not been waived or exercised.
2.3. Organization. If an entity, the Shareholder is duly organized and validly existing in its jurisdiction of organization and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization.
2.4. Power and Authority. The Shareholder has the legal power, capacity and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and each Transaction Document to be delivered by it hereunder and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and to consummate the Transactions. All acts required to be taken by the Shareholder to enter into this Agreement, to deliver each Transaction Document to which it is a party and to carry out the Transactions have been properly taken. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Shareholder, enforceable against such Shareholder in accordance with the terms hereof.
2.5. No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Shareholder and the performance by such Shareholder of its obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof: (a) will not require the consent of any third party or Governmental Entity under any Laws; (b) will not violate any Laws applicable to the Shareholder and (c) will not violate or breach any contractual obligation to which such Shareholder is a party.
2.6. Litigation. There is no pending proceeding against the Shareholder that involves the Shares or that challenges, or may have the effect of preventing, delaying or making illegal, or otherwise interfering with, any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, to the knowledge of the Shareholder, no such proceeding has been threatened, and no event or circumstance exists that is reasonably likely to give rise to or serve as a basis for the commencement of any such proceeding.
2.7. No Finder’s Fee. The Shareholder has not created any obligation for any finder’s, investment banker’s or broker’s fee in connection with the Transactions.
2.8. Purchase Entirely for Own Account.

The non-registration shall have no prejudice with respect to any rights, interests, benefits and entitlements attached to the HJH Stock in accordance with HJH’s formation documents or the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation.
2.11. Legends. The Shareholder hereby agrees with HJH that the HJH Stock will bear the following legend or one that is substantially similar to the following legend:

5
3.4. No Conflicts; Consents.
(a) The consummation of the Transactions and compliance with the terms hereof will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of ANC under, any provision of (i) ANC's charter documents, (ii) any Contract to which ANC is a party or by which any of its properties or assets is bound or (iii) subject to the filings and other matters referred to in Section 3.4(b), any material judgment, order or decree or material Law applicable to ANC or its properties or assets, including without limitation, the ANC Stock, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, any such items that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have an ANC Material Adverse Effect.
(b) Except for required filings with the SEC and applicable “Blue Sky” or state securities commissions, no Consent of, or registration, declaration or filing with, or permit from, any Governmental Entity is required to be obtained or made by or with respect to ANC in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions.

There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of ANC know of no basis for any such claim.
(b) The ANC Financial Statements reflect an adequate reserve for all Taxes payable by ANC (in addition to any reserve for deferred Taxes to reflect timing differences between book and Tax items) for all Taxable periods and portions thereof through the date of such financial statements. No deficiency with respect to any Taxes has been proposed, asserted or assessed against ANC, and no requests for waivers of the time to assess any such Taxes are pending, except to the extent any such deficiency or request for waiver, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have an ANC Material Adverse Effect.
3.6. Benefit Plans. ANC does not have or maintain any collective bargaining agreement or any bonus, pension, profit sharing, deferred compensation, incentive compensation, stock ownership, stock purchase, stock option, phantom stock, retirement, vacation, severance, disability, death benefit, hospitalization, medical or other plan, arrangement or understanding (whether or not legally binding) providing benefits to any current or former employee, officer or director of ANC (collectively, the “ANC Benefit Plans”).

6
3.7. Litigation. There is no Action against or affecting ANC or any of its properties which (a) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of this Agreement or the Shares or (b) could, if there were an unfavorable decision, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in an ANC Material Adverse Effect.

3.8. Compliance with Applicable Laws. ANC is in compliance with all applicable Laws, including those relating to occupational health and safety and the environment, except for instances of noncompliance that, individually and in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have an ANC Material Adverse Effect. ANC has not received any written communication during the two years preceding the date of this Agreement from a Governmental Entity that alleges that it is not in compliance in any material respect with any applicable Law. This Section 3.8 does not relate to matters with respect to Taxes, which are the subject of Section 3.5.
3.9. Brokers; Schedule of Fees and Expenses. No broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other person is entitled to any broker’s, finder’s, financial advisor’s or other similar fee or commission in connection with the Transactions based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of ANC.
3.10. Contracts. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.10, there are no Contracts that are material to the business, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations or prospects of ANC taken as a whole. ANC is not in violation of or in default under (nor does there exist any condition which upon the passage of time or the giving of notice would cause such a violation of or default under) any Contract to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets are bound, except for violations or defaults that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in an ANC Material Adverse Effect.
3.11. Title to Properties. ANC does not own any real property. ANC has sufficient title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all of its properties and assets used in the conduct of its businesses. All such assets and properties, other than assets and properties in which ANC has leasehold interests, are free and clear of all Liens, except for Liens that, in the aggregate, do not and will not materially interfere with the ability of ANC to conduct business as currently conducted.
3.12. Intellectual Property. ANC owns, or is validly licensed or otherwise has the right to use, all Intellectual Property Rights which are material to the conduct of the business of ANC, as set forth on Schedule 3.12. There are no claims pending or, to the knowledge of the Shareholders, threatened that ANC is infringing or otherwise adversely affecting the rights of any person with regard to any Intellectual Property Right. To the best knowledge of the Shareholders, no person is infringing the rights of ANC with respect to any Intellectual Property Right.
3.13. Labor Matters. There are no collective bargaining or other labor union agreements to which ANC is a party or by which it is bound. No material labor dispute exists or, to the best knowledge of ANC, is imminent with respect to any of the employees of ANC.
3.14. Insurance. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.14, ANC is insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which ANC is engaged and in the geographic areas where it engages in such businesses. ANC has no reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business on terms consistent with market for ANC’s respective lines of business.
7
3.15. Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither ANC nor, to the Shareholders’ best knowledge, any director, officer, agent, employee or other person acting on behalf of any of ANC has, in the course of its actions for, or on behalf of, ANC (a) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to political activity; (b) made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds; (c) violated or is in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended; or (d) made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or employee.
3.16. Financial Statements; Liabilities.
(a) ANC or will has deliver to HJH its audited consolidated financial statements for the period ended April 30, 2009 (the “ANC Financial Statements”) The ANC Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated. The ANC Financial Statements fairly present in all material respects the financial condition and operating results of ANC, as of the dates, and for the periods, indicated therein.
(b) ANC does not have any material liabilities or obligations, contingent or otherwise, other than (a) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business subsequent to April 30, 2009 and (b) obligations under contracts and commitments incurred in the ordinary course of business and not required under generally accepted accounting principles to be reflected in the ANC Financial Statements, which, in both cases, individually and in the aggregate, would not be reasonably expected to result in an ANC Material Adverse Effect.
3.17. Transactions with Affiliates and Employees . Except as set forth on Schedule 3.17, none of the officers or directors of ANC and, to the knowledge of the Shareholders, none of the employees of ANC is presently a party to any transaction with ANC (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any Contract or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the Shareholders, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.
3.18. Solvency. Based on the financial condition of ANC as of the Closing Date (and assuming that the Closing shall have occurred), (a) ANC’s fair saleable value of its assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of ANC’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature, (b) ANC’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for the current fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by ANC, and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof, and (c) the current cash flow of ANC, together with the proceeds ANC would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts are required to be paid. ANC does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).
3.19. Investment Company. ANC is not, and is not an affiliate of, and immediately following the Closing will not have become, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
3.20. Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Except as disclosed in the ANC Financial Statements, from April 30, 2009 to the date of this Agreement, ANC has conducted its business only in the ordinary course, and during such period that has not been:
(a) any change in the assets, liabilities, financial condition or operating results of ANC, except changes in the ordinary course of business that have not caused, in the aggregate, an ANC Material Adverse Effect;
(b) any damage, destruction or loss, whether or not covered by insurance, that would have an ANC Material Adverse Effect;
8
(c) any waiver or compromise by ANC of a valuable right or of a material debt owed to it;
(d) any satisfaction or discharge of any lien, claim, or encumbrance or payment of any obligation by ANC, except in the ordinary course of business and the satisfaction or discharge of which would not have an ANC Material Adverse Effect;
(e) any material change to a material Contract by which ANC or any of its respective assets is bound or subject;
(f) any mortgage, pledge, transfer of a security interest in, or lien, created by ANC, with respect to any of its material properties or assets, except liens for taxes not yet due or payable and liens that arise in the ordinary course of business and do not materially impair ANC’s ownership or use of such property or assets;
(g) any loans or guarantees made by ANC to or for the benefit of its employees, officers or directors, or any members of their immediate families, or any loans or advances to any persons, corporations, business trusts, associations, companies, partnerships, limited liability companies, joint ventures and other entities, governments, agencies and political subdivision other than travel advances and other advances made in the ordinary course of its business;
(h) any alteration of ANC’s method of accounting or the identity of its auditors;
(i) any declaration or payment of dividend or distribution of cash or other property to the Shareholders or any purchase, redemption or agreements to purchase or redeem any ANC Stock;
(j) any issuance, sale, disposition or encumbrance of equity securities to any officer, director or affiliate, except pursuant to existing ANC Stock option plans, or any change in their outstanding shares of capital stock or their capitalization, whether by reason of reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, stock dividend or otherwise; or
(k) any arrangement or commitment by ANC to do any of the things described in this Section 3.21.
3.21. Disclosure. Neither ANC nor any person acting on its behalf has provided the Shareholders or their agents or counsel with any information that it believes constitutes material, non-public information except insofar as the existence and terms of the proposed transactions hereunder may constitute such information and except for information that will be disclosed by HJH under a current report on Form 8-K filed within four business days after the Closing. All disclosure provided to the Shareholders regarding ANC, its business and the Transactions, furnished by or on behalf of ANC (including ANC’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement) is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
3.22. Information Supplied. None of the information supplied or to be supplied by ANC for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the 14f-1 Notice, at the date it is first mailed to HJH’s stockholders, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.
3.23. No Undisclosed Events, Liabilities, Developments or Circumstances. No event, liability, development or circumstance has occurred or exists, or is contemplated to occur with respect to ANC, or its business, properties, prospects, operations or financial condition, that would be required to be disclosed by ANC under applicable securities laws on a registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC relating to an issuance and sale by ANC of its ANC Stock and which has not been publicly announced.
3.24. No Additional Agreements. ANC has no agreement or understanding with the Shareholders with respect to the Transactions other than as specified in this Agreement.

(i) The Parties may terminate this Agreement by mutual written consent at any time prior to the Closing;

7.4. Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, HJH shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to HJH of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares. If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is requested due to a mutilation thereof, HJH may require delivery of such mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance of a replacement.
7.5. Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each Party hereto will be entitled to specific performance under this Agreement.

7.7. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.
7.8. Counterparts; Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties. Facsimile execution and delivery of this Agreement is legal, valid and binding for all purposes.

7.10. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding.
