DEBT ASSUMPTION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT

 

This DEBT ASSUMPTION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of the 31st day of December, 2014 (the “Assignment Date”), by and between Fuse Medical, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Transferor”), Cooks Bridge, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Releasing Party”), and Fuse Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Transferee”).

 

RECITALS

 

A. As of the date of this Agreement, Transferor owes Releasing Party the amount outstanding set forth on Schedule A attached hereto (the “Outstanding Debt”).

 

B. As a result of its efforts to wind up its business, Transferor wishes to assign all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Outstanding Debt to its parent, Transferee, and Transferee wishes to accept such rights and assume such obligations, all as set forth below (the “Assignment”).

 

C. Immediately after the Assignment, in further consideration for Transferor permitting such Assignment, Transferee will issue 466,598 shares of Transferee’s common stock (the “Shares”) pursuant to a Debt Conversion Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between Releasing Party and Transferee (the “Conversion Agreement”) to retire, in full, the Outstanding Debt.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Assignment.

 

(a) Transferor hereby irrevocably sells and assigns to Transferee, effective as of the Assignment Date, all of its liabilities, obligations and commitments with respect to the Outstanding Debt. On and after the Assignment Date, Transferee shall have the same rights, duties and obligations as Transferor had, as a borrower, and Transferor shall be irrevocably released from its obligations, liabilities and responsibilities with respect to the Outstanding Debt. All payments of interest, fees and other amounts or past due monies owed by Transferor (including but not limited to legal expenses incurred by Transferor) in respect of the Outstanding Debt shall be paid to Releasing Party by Transferee.

 

(b) Except as set forth in Section 3(a), Transferor does not make any representation or warranty of any kind to Releasing Party and, in particular, the financial condition or creditworthiness of Transferee or Transferor.

 

2. Assumption and Agreement to be Bound. Transferee hereby accepts, effective as of the Assignment Date, the assignment of all of Transferor’s liabilities, obligations and commitments with respect to the Outstanding Debt, and assumes and agrees to perform fully all of the obligations of Transferor with respect to the Outstanding Debt.

3. Representations and Warranties.

 

(a) Transferee and Transferor hereby represent and warrant to one another, as applicable, that as of the Assignment Date:

 

(i) Transferor is duly authorized and qualified to sell and assign the Outstanding Debt and transfer or assign the duties and obligations with respect to the Outstanding Debt. Transferee is duly authorized and qualified to purchase and accept the assignment of the Outstanding Debt and assume the duties and obligations with respect to the Outstanding Debt.

 

(ii) This Agreement is valid and binding on Transferee and Transferor and enforceable against Transferee and Transferor in accordance with its terms.

 

(b) Releasing Party hereby represents and warrants to Transferor and Transferee that, as of the Assignment Date, the Outstanding Debt constitutes all of the liabilities owed to it by Transferor immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement.

 

4. Conditions. This Agreement is conditioned and contingent upon Releasing Party and Transferee entering into the Conversion Agreement.

 

5. Release by Releasing Parties. Execution of this Agreement will automatically, by operation of this Agreement and without any further action on the part of the parties hereto, effect a release and discharge by Releasing Party and its affiliates and past, present and future officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, successors and assigns from all manner of action, cause and causes of action, suits, debts, sums of money, accounts, covenants, controversies, agreements, promises, damages, judgments, executions, costs, expenses, rights, claims or demands whatsoever, at law or in equity, existing at the date thereof, at any time before the date thereof, or thereafter arising, both anticipated and unanticipated, known and unknown, contingent and non-contingent, liquidated and non-liquidated, that Releasing Party has had, now has, then has or may have against Transferor or its affiliates or past, present or future officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, successors or assigns by reason of any cause or thing, arising or to arise, out of the Outstanding Debt and any and all agreements, purchase orders, invoices or other arrangements, written or oral, with respect to the relationship between Transferor and Releasing Party and concerning the Outstanding Debt. For purposes herein, “Releasing Party” shall be deemed to include any affiliate of the Releasing Party.

 

6. Waiver. Releasing Party hereby irrevocably waives its rights under any applicable statute, rule, regulation, legal principle or legal doctrine that provides that a general release does not extend to claims which a releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of executing such release, which if known by Releasing Party, would have materially affected its settlement with the released party.

 

7. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE (REGARDLESS OF THE LAWS THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE GOVERN UNDER APPLICABLE DELAWARE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW) AS TO ALL MATTERS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, MATTERS OF VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION, EFFECT, PERFORMANCE AND REMEDIES.
