It is the intent of the Parties that the Merger be structured and implemented as a tax free merger pursuant to Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code and each hereby agrees to amend this Agreement, as reasonably required to attain such result.

 

L.Alternative Structure of the Contemplated Transaction:

 

1.Notwithstanding the foregoing, if agreeable to the Parties, the definitive merger may be postponed and the transaction treated as a two-step transaction, first a reorganization pursuant to Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code involving an exchange of all the securities, equity and ownership interests and rights of Glades, GMC, PCMG and PMP for the Exchange Shares pursuant to which Glades, GMC, PCMG and PMP would each become wholly owned subsidiaries of NHC and NHC their only and managing member or sole stockholder, and the Glades Securities Holders would become holders of the Exchange Shares, and thereafter, at the election of NHC, one or more of Glades, GMC, PCMG and PMP could be merged into NHC.

 

2.In such event, all provisions of this Agreement not legally incompatible with such reorganization would remain in full force and effect.

 

2.2Performance Shares

 

In addition to the Exchange Shares, Puget will reserve additional shares of its Class B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Performance Shares”) for potential future issuance to the Glades Group segment of NHC for redistribution among its employees, potentially including the Glades Securities Holders, based on their contributions to development of NHC’s business, in annual installments as follows:

 

A.The total number of Performance Shares shall be based on the sum of $200,000 divided by the last sales price therefor reported at the close of business during the ten business days preceding the end of the applicable year set forth below.

 

1.For the year ended December 31, 2022, an amount equal to one half of the Performance Shares if Glades together with its consolidated subsidiaries has earned, on an accrual basis in accordance with GAAP, Net, Post-Tax Profits of not less than $1,000,000; and

 

2.For the year ended December 31, 2023, an amount equal to one half of the Performance Shares if Glades together with its consolidated subsidiaries has earned, on an accrual basis in accordance with GAAP, Net, Post-Tax Profits of not less than $2,000,000.

 

B.In the event that the foregoing Net, Post-Tax Profits (determined under the cash method of accounting in compliance with GAAP) are not attained during the time periods set, then:

 

1.If the Net, Post-Tax Profits (determined under the cash method of accounting in compliance with GAAP) are less than 33% of the required threshold during any subject 12 month period, the Performance Shares for such period will be forfeited;

 

2.If the Net, Post-Tax Profits (determined under the cash method of accounting in compliance with GAAP) are between 33% and 80% of the required threshold during any subject 12 month period, the Performance Shares for such period and the required threshold will be carried over to the next year, increasing both the aggregate threshold and the aggregate shares attainable for such year; and

 

3.If the Net, Post-Tax Profits (determined under the cash method of accounting in compliance with GAAP) are between 80% and 100% of the required threshold during the subject 12 month period, the Performance Shares for such period will be prorated.

C.In each of the foregoing instances, the holders of such securities may be granted piggyback registration rights (i.e., in the event that Puget files a registration statement for any of its securities, it will, on request, include the Performance Shares received facilitating their resale prior to the time otherwise applicable holding period would have expired); however, in such case, there likely to be contractual restrictions on sales as a condition to such registration.

 

D.The Performance Shares will be issued as follows:

 

1.Within ten days after delivery of the Puget consolidated audit (including the Glades Group’s financial results as a segment of NHC) on which the number of the Performance Shares will be based, Puget will deliver to the Glades Group’s Attorney-in-Fact an original directive comprised of a cover letter to Puget’s transfer agent directing it to issue the Performance Shares called for at Puget’s expense, a corporate resolution authorizing and directing the issuance of the Performance Shares and an opinion of counsel to Puget, directed to Puget’s transfer agent, authorizing the issuance of the Performance Shares which the Glades Group’s Attorney-in-Fact will cause to be delivered to Puget’s transfer agent.

 

2.The Glades Securities Holders will thereupon allocate the Performance shares among the employees of its segment of NHC, possibly including the Glades Securities Holders, as they shall have determined appropriate.

 

2.3Unregistered Status of the Exchange Shares and Performance Shares to Be Issued

 

The Exchange Shares and the Performance Shares will be issued without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemptive provisions of Sections 4(a)(2) thereof pertaining to non-public offerings and in compliance with the State Securities Act Exemptions, compliance with which is predicated on the following representations and warranties by the Glades Securities Holders and the recipients of the Performance Shares:

 

A.(1)The Parties acknowledge that Puget is delayed in the filing of certain of its reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q with the Commission but current in the filing of its most recent reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q and that the delinquent reports, including financial statements, are in the process of preparation.

 

(2)That the most recent reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and Form 8-K have been made available to the Glades Group who have reviewed all such reports and have, either directly or through a representative, been granted access to all of Puget’s officers and directors for purposes of providing all disclosure required under applicable federal and state securities laws in conjunction with the exchange contemplated by this Agreement.

 

B.Furthermore, the Glades Securities Holders have had (and the recipients of the Performance Shares will have had) access through the Commission’s Internet web site at www.sec.gov, in the EDGAR Archives sub-cite, to all of Puget’s reports filed with the Commission, will have reviewed all such reports and will have, either directly or through a representative, been granted access to all of Puget’s officers and directors for purposes of providing all disclosure required under applicable federal and state securities laws in conjunction with the exchange contemplated by this Agreement.

 

C.The Glades Securities Holders have been advised (and the recipients of the Performance Shares will be advised) that:

1.The securities to be issued by Puget in consideration for the Merger and as Performance Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any comparable state securities laws, but rather, are being issued in reliance on the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof and under the Florida Securities and Investors Protective Act pursuant to Section 517.061(11) thereof;

 

2.All certificates for the shares of Puget’s Class B Convertible Preferred Stock will bear legends restricting any transactions therein, directly or indirectly, unless they are first registered under applicable federal and state securities laws or the proposed transaction is exempt from such registration requirements, and such facts are demonstrated to the satisfaction of Puget and its legal counsel based on such third party legal opinions, affidavits and transfer agency procedures as Puget will reasonably require or have in place generally;

 

3.Puget’s transfer agent will be instructed to decline transfers of certificates for the shares of Puget’s Class B Convertible Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement unless the foregoing requirements have been met and have been confirmed as having been met by a duly authorized officer of Puget.

 

D.Puget’s Class B Convertible Preferred Stock is not currently publicly traded although Puget’s Common Stock is currently quoted on the Pink Open Market under symbol “PUGE”; however, at present, none of Puget’s securities are listed for trading over the NASDAQ National Market, the New York Stock Exchange or any other exchange; thus, while Puget hopes to eventually list its securities for trading on an exchange at some time after Closing, no assurances can be provided as to when or if that aspiration will be realized and until then, its securities (currently only its Common Stock) will be traded only in the over-the-counter market.

 

E.Each of the Glades Securities Holders have independently determined (and each recipient of Performance Shares will independently determine) through his, her or its own legal counsel that all requirements of his, her or its state of domicile for the issuance of the shares of Puget’s Class B Convertible Preferred Stock called for by this Agreement have been met, or will have been met, prior to Closing, by such legal counsel acting on behalf of the Parties to this Agreement, other than in conjunction with the post-Closing filing requirements with the Commission and any state securities divisions.

 

F.The Parties acknowledge that with reference to Parties in the State of Florida, they have each relied on the transactional exemption from applicable registration requirements provided by Florida Statutes Section 517.061(11).

 

Article Three: Representations & Warranties

 

 

Explanatory Note: As a reporting company under the Exchange Act, Puget is required to takes steps to assure that its financial statements and other documentation will be auditable in the future and that it will be able to document compliance with applicable laws necessary for filings under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. The extensive nature of the following representation and warranties is based on the requirements of federal securities regulations, especially Commission Regulations S-K and S-X, which require that extensive questions be asked and responded to, whether or not relevant to the particular transaction. Consequently, in many, perhaps even most cases, responses will be either “None” or “Not Applicable”, but even such responses permit Puget to facilitate compliance with its responsibilities under applicable securities and other applicable laws.
