Proposed Transaction:   

Cosmos shall, directly or indirectly through a subsidiary, acquire all of the outstanding shares of capital stock in the Company together with all of its Assets (the “Shares”), free and clear of all encumbrances, in exchange for cash, payable (or issued) to the Company or other controlling entity or person (the “Transaction”).
