Exhibit 10.1







STOCK EXCHANGE AGREEMENT







STOCK EXCHANGE AGREEMENT, dated as of April 8, 2013 (this “Agreement”), by and among Nevada Tungsten Holdings Ltd, (the “Company”), Guy Martin (the “Seller”) and Tungsten Corp. (the “Purchaser”). Each of the Company, the Seller, and the Purchaser, are referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively, as the “Parties”.







BACKGROUND







Seller intends to transfer to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser intends to acquire, one share of common stock (the “Seller Shares”) of Company.  The Seller Shares represent all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company.







NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises and covenants herein contained, the Seller and the Purchaser hereby agree as follows:







1. Purchase and Sale.


 


The Seller shall transfer, convey and deliver unto the Purchaser the Seller Shares, and the Purchaser shall acquire from the Seller the Seller Shares.







2. Purchase Price.  The acquisition cost for the Seller Shares shall be the issuance of 3,000,000 restricted shares of the Purchaser’s common stock to the Seller (the “Purchase Shares”).


 


3.  Distribution of the Purchase Shares.  The Purchase Shares shall be issued effective on Closing.


 


4. The Closing.


 


(a) General.  The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place by exchange of documents among the Parties by fax or courier, as appropriate, following the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (other than conditions with respect to actions the respective Parties will take at the Closing itself) not later than March 15, 2013 or such other date as the Purchaser and the Seller may mutually determine (the “Closing Date”).


 


(b) Deliveries at the Closing. At the Closing: (i) the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a certificate evidencing the Seller Shares (the “Certificate”), endorsed in blank or accompanied by duly executed assignment documents with a signature guarantee acceptable to the Purchaser, and (ii) the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller the Purchase Shares.


 




  





  











  






 


(c) Obligations after Closing.  Upon Closing, the Purchaser will undertake the Company’s obligations as they relate to the option agreement between the Company and Viscount Nevada Holdings Ltd.


 


(d) Tax Matters. The exchange of the Seller Shares for the Purchase Shares is intended to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and this Agreement is intended to be a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the treasury regulations promulgated under Section 368 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Each of the Parties agrees to treat the exchange of the Seller Shares for the Purchase Shares as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code for all U.S. federal income tax purposes, and agrees to treat this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the treasury regulations promulgated under Section 368 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, and to not take any position on any Tax Return or otherwise take any Tax reporting position inconsistent with such treatment, unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code that such treatment is not correct. Each of the Parties agrees to act in a manner that is consistent with the Parties’ intention that the exchange of the Seller Shares for the Purchase Shares be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code for all U.S. federal income tax purposes.


 


5. Representations and Warranties of the Seller.


 


The Seller represents and warrants to the Purchaser that the statements contained in this Section 5, with respect to such Seller, are correct and complete as of the date of this Agreement and will be correct and complete as of the Closing Date (as though made then and as though the Closing Date were substituted for the date of this Agreement throughout this Section 5).


 


(a) The Seller has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to sell, assign, transfer and deliver to the Purchaser the Seller Shares as contemplated hereby.  No permit, consent, approval or authorization of, or declaration, filing or registration with any governmental or regulatory authority or consent of any third party is required in connection with the execution and delivery by Seller of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.


 


(b) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or compliance with the terms and conditions hereof by the Seller will violate or result in a breach of any term or provision of any agreement to which any Seller is bound or is a party, or be in conflict with or constitute a default under, or cause the acceleration of the maturity of any obligation of the Seller under any existing agreement or violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Seller or any  properties or assets of the Seller.


 


(c) This Agreement has been duly and validly executed by the Seller, and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws affecting creditors' rights generally or by limitations, on the availability of equitable remedies.

No Party may assign either this Agreement or any of his or its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the Purchaser and the Seller; provided, however, that the Purchaser may (i) assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates, and (ii) designate one or more of its affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder, but no such assignment shall operate to release Purchaser or a successor from any obligation hereunder unless and only to the extent that Seller agrees in writing.

No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Purchaser and the Seller or their respective representatives. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

(j) Severability.

Any reference to any federal, state or local statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The word “including” shall mean including without limitation. The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. Nothing in the disclosure Schedules attached hereto shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein, however, unless the disclosure Schedules identifies the exception with particularity and describes the relevant facts in detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item in the disclosure Schedules or supplied in connection with the Purchaser’ due diligence review, shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself).
