This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is by and between:

 

a) Cosmos Holdings Inc. (hereinafter" Cosmos"), a company incorporated in Nevada, whose shares are publicly traded on the U.S. OTCMarkets under the ticker: COSM, and

 

b) DOC Pharma SA, based in Ag. Georgiou 5, TK57001, Thessaloniki, Greece, agree on the present MOU that comes into force on the 20th of May 2016, and expires on the 31st of December 2016.

 

DOC Pharma SA is an ISO certified and licensed GDP (Good Distribution Practices) whole sales of pharmaceutical products. It is the owner of numerous licenses of generic medicines and uses its own network of pharmaceutical sales representatives to communicate its products with doctors. The company also trades prototype medicines, food supplements, and cosmetics.

 

Purpose of this MOU:

 
This MOU is a preliminary agreement whose purpose is to conclude to a final agreement in which Cosmos will acquire DOC Pharma with cash and shares of Cosmos stock the amount of which will be determined before a definitive agreement is signed (the "Transaction"). The shares will be issued to the owner of DOC Pharma according to exchange agreements that will follow. Cosmos' principal stockholder, CEO and a director, Grigorios Siokas, also controls DOC Pharma, and this will be a related party transaction. The process of share and assets exchange is described below.

 

Both parties will proceed to a final agreement only if all conditions will be agreed to by both parties. If both parties do not agree on all conditions there will be no definitive contracts and no obligations by any party.

 

Execution of a definitive agreement and subsequent closing is subject to, among other things, tax and legal considerations and satisfactory completion of due diligence.

 

Both parties will use their best efforts in order to sign a definitive agreement, but are under no obligation to do so and may not do so for any reason in their sole and absolute discretion.

 

During the period that this MOU is valid Cosmos and DOC Pharma will focus their efforts to complete the Transaction.
