ARTICLE I.
ADOPTION OF AGREEMENT
1.1 The Exchange. Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing (as defined in Section 3.1 herein), in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL, the Parties shall consummate the Exchange. Upon completion of the Exchange, Myrtle will become a subsidiary of FOXO.

2.2 Purchase Price of Myrtle Shares. In consideration for the transfer of the Myrtle Shares pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof, FOXO shall on the Closing Date and contemporaneously with such transfer of the Myrtle Shares to it by Rennova, pay Rennova $500,000 (the “Purchase Price”), which payment shall be made: (a) by the issuance of a number of shares of FOXO Common Stock (the “FOXO Shares”) determined by dividing $500,000 by the volume weighted average price (the “VWAP”) on the day immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “Price”), but in no event shall such number of shares be more than 19.99% of the number of outstanding shares of FOXO Common Stock on the trading day prior to the Closing Date; (b) if the number of FOXO Shares to be issued to Rennova pursuant to clause (a) above multiplied by the Price is less than $500,000, FOXO shall pay such deficit in cash within twelve (12) months from the Closing Date; and (c) if the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) indicated in the audited financial statements of Myrtle varies by more than 10% from the Myrtle Financial Statements (as defined below), attached as Exhibit A, the Purchase Price shall automatically increase or decrease on a dollar for dollar basis and, if increased, the difference shall be paid in additional shares of FOXO Common Stock or cash or, if decreased, the difference shall result in either cancellation of FOXO Common Stock or return of cash paid. For the avoidance of doubt, a $25,000 change in the EBITDA number will result in a $25,000 adjustment in the consideration price payable. This adjustment could be an increase or decrease in the Purchase Price.
2.3 Restricted Stock. The FOXO Shares to be issued pursuant to the Exchange shall not have been registered and shall be characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws, and under such laws such shares may be resold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), only in certain limited circumstances.
