 MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT
  
 This MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of March 16th, 2022 by and among those listed on Schedule A (collectively “Seller”), Helix House LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (“Company”) and Business Warrior Corporation, a Wyoming limited liability company (“Buyer”).
  
 RECITALS
  
 WHEREAS, Buyer desires to acquire from Seller all of the limited liability company membership interests (the “Membership Interests”) of the Company, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement; and
  
 WHEREAS, Seller desires to sell the Membership Interests to Buyer upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement.
  
 WHEREAS, Buyer is a publicly traded company with a class of securities quoted on OTC Markets Group’s Pink Open Market under the symbol “BZWR”.
  
 WHEREAS, capitalized terms used but not defined in the context of the Section in which such terms first appear shall have the meanings set forth in Section 7.10.
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
  
 ARTICLE I. PURCHASE AND SALE OF MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS.
  
 Section 1.1. Purchase and Sale of Membership Interests. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, on the Closing Date, Seller shall sell to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase from Seller, all of Seller's rights, title and interest in and to the Membership Interests, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances of any nature whatsoever (collectively, “Liens”).
  
 Section 1.2. Purchase Price.
  
 (a) The purchase price for the Membership Interests (the “Purchase Price”) shall be equal to (i) $1,800,000 in cash and $2,950,000 in shares of the Buyer’s Common Stock (the “Preliminary Purchase Price”), as that amount may be adjusted pursuant to Section 1.3(a) (collectively, the “Closing Purchase Price”), as that amount may be further adjusted under Section 1.3(b). The Purchase Price shall also be deemed to include any amounts paid pursuant to Section 1.4 as an Earn-Out Payment.
  
 (b) The Closing Purchase Price shall be paid on the Closing Date as follows: (i) $1,200,000 in immediately available funds (together with all earnings on those funds, the “Escrow Fund”) shall be paid by delivery to a federally insured commercial bank reasonably acceptable to the Buyer and Seller (the “Escrow Agent”), to be held and disbursed in accordance with the terms of an Escrow Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A (the “Escrow Agreement”); and (ii) $1,050,000 in shares of the Buyer’s Common Stock valued at the average of the closing prices of the Company Common Stock for the 20 trading days prior to the Closing.
  
  
 	 
	4
	

	 


 
 
  
 
 Section 1.3. Working Capital Adjustment; Post-Closing Audit.
  
 (a) Not more than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer will, in good faith, jointly estimate what the Company's Working Capital will be as of the Closing Date on a reasonable basis using the Company's then available financial information; if Seller and Buyer cannot agree on an estimate, then the Company's Working Capital shall be estimated by taking the average of the respective good faith determinations of Seller and Buyer. The amount of the Company's Working Capital as finally estimated is referred to as “Estimated Working Capital.”
  
 (b) On or before Closing, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, a balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a basis consistent with prior periods and, to the extent that the same are consistent with GAAP, the Company's current accounting principles and policies as reflected in the Company's books and records prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) and its calculation of the Company's Working Capital as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that Buyer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide Seller with a preliminary Closing Balance Sheet not less than 10 days prior to Closing. Seller shall have a period of 30 days after receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Buyer's Working Capital calculation to review them and to notify Buyer of any disputes regarding the Closing Balance Sheet or Working Capital calculation. During the 30- day review period, Seller shall have full access to Buyer's work papers and to the persons who prepared the Closing Balance Sheet, Buyer's Working Capital calculation and the Company's Working Capital calculation. If Seller notifies Buyer of any disputes in accordance with this Section 1.3(b), then the parties will negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve those disputes. If the parties are unable to resolve any dispute within 30 days after Buyer receives notice, then either party may submit that dispute for resolution to an accountant with an independent accounting firm of recognized national or regional standing mutually acceptable to Buyer and Seller and which accountant is not then providing, and has not provided at any time during the period commencing two years prior to the Closing Date through the date of its determination pursuant to this Section 1.3, services to any of Buyer, Seller, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates. The resolution of any dispute by that accounting firm shall be rendered within 30 days after submission of the dispute to the accounting firm and shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. The fees and expenses of the accounting firm shall be shared 50% by Seller and 50% by Buyer.
  
 (c) If the Company's Working Capital, as determined in accordance with Section 1.3(b), is less than the Estimated Working Capital, then such amount shall be deducted from any Earn Out Payments to be made pursuant to Section 1.4. All payments under this subsection shall bear interest from the Closing Date to the date of payment at the rate of 4% per annum and shall be made within 10 days (1) after conclusion of the 30-day review period described in Section 1.3(b) or, (2) if Seller notifies Buyer of a dispute under Section 1.3(b), after final resolution of any disputes under Section 1.3(b).
  
  
 	 
	5
	

	 


 
 
  
 
 (d) “Working Capital” means the working capital of the Company determined in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with prior periods and, to the extent that the same are consistent with GAAP, the Company's current accounting principles and policies as reflected in the Company's books and records prior to the Closing Date and otherwise in the manner specified on Schedule 1.0(d).
  
 Section 1.4. Earn-Out.
  
 (a) Seller shall be entitled to receive an Earn-Out Payment to be determined and paid in accordance with this Section 1.4. With respect to the period beginning on the day following the Closing Date and ending on the date that is the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Earn-Out Measurement Period”), Seller shall be entitled to receive an amount (the “Earn-Out Payment”) calculated as follows:
  
 (1) After first earning an initial base revenue of $70,000 per month (not including client advertising spend and revenue from Business Warrior, as a client of the Seller), each time the Company subsequently achieves revenue growth, equal or greater to $25,000 per month, including client adverting spend (up to a cumulative total of a $100,000 increase in monthly revenue) and sustains said revenue growth for at least one additional month thereafter, the Buyer shall pay to the Seller $150,000 in cash and $475,000 in Company Common Stock valued at the average of the closing prices of the Company Common Stock for the 20 trading days following the achievement of the milestone, up to a total of $600,000 in cash and $1,900,000 in stock;
  
 (2) Should the Company achieve more than one revenue milestone in any two- month period the milestone payment shall be equal to the number of milestones achieved. For example, should the Company achieve $120,000 in revenue in Month 1 ($50,000 in Revenue Growth) and $145,000 in revenue in Month 2 ($25,000 in Revenue Growth), the milestone payments would equal $300,000 in cash and $950,000 in Company Common Stock being that the Company achieved two months of Revenue Growth.
  
 (b) As promptly as practicable following the end of the fiscal quarter in which a Revenue Growth Milestone was achieved (but not later than seventy-five (75) days therefrom), Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a preliminary report (the “Preliminary Earn-Out Report”) which shall include (i) an income statement for the fiscal quarter, which income statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and consistent with the principles and methodologies used in the preparation of the Audited Financial Statements (the “Preliminary Earn-Out Statement”) and (ii) Buyer's calculation of the Earn-Out Payment (the “Preliminary Earn-Out Payment”).
  
  
 	 
	6
	

	 


 
 
  
 
 (c) Promptly following receipt of the Preliminary Earn-Out Report, Seller may review the same and, within thirty (30) days after the date of such receipt, may deliver to Buyer a certificate setting forth any objections to the Preliminary Earn-Out Statement and the Preliminary Earn-Out Payment as set forth in the Preliminary Earn-Out Report, together with a summary of the reasons therefore and calculations which, in its view, are necessary to eliminate such objections (an “Earn-Out Objection Notice”). If Seller does not so object within such thirty (30) day period, the Preliminary Earn-Out Statement and the Preliminary Earn-Out Payment set forth in the Preliminary Earn-Out Report shall be final and binding as the Earn-Out Statement and the Earn-Out Payment, respectively, for such Earn-Out Measurement Period for purposes of this Agreement.
  
 (d) If Seller timely delivers to Buyer an Earn-Out Objection Notice in proper form in accordance with Section 1.4(c), Buyer and Seller shall use their reasonable efforts to resolve by written agreement (the “Agreed Earn-Out Adjustments”) any differences as to the Preliminary Earn-Out Statement and the Preliminary Earn-Out Payment and, if Seller and Buyer so resolve any such differences, the Preliminary Earn-Out Statement and the Preliminary Earn-Out Payment set forth in the Preliminary Earn-Out Report, as adjusted by the Agreed Earn-Out Adjustments, shall be final and binding as the Earn-Out Statement and Earn-Out Payment, respectively, for the Earn-Out Measurement Period for purposes of this Agreement.
  
 (e) If any objections raised by Seller in its Earn-Out Objection Notice are not resolved by the Agreed Earn-Out Adjustments within the thirty (30) day period following the receipt by Buyer of the Earn-Out Objection Notice, then Buyer and Seller shall submit the objections that are then unresolved to Salberg & Co., CPAs of Boca Raton, Florida (or such other impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants appointed by Buyer and Seller by mutual agreement, other than Seller's accountants or Buyer's accountants) (the “Independent Accountant”). The Independent Accountant shall resolve the unresolved objections (based solely on the presentations by Buyer and by Seller as to whether any disputed matter had been determined in a manner consistent with the principles and methodologies used in the preparation of the audited Financial Statements) and shall deliver to Buyer and Seller, as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event within thirty (30) days after its appointment, a written report setting forth its resolution of the disputed matters determined in accordance with the terms herein. The Preliminary Earn-Out Statement and the Preliminary Earn-Out Payment, after giving effect to any Agreed Earn-Out Adjustments and to the resolution of disputed matters by the Independent Accountant, shall be final and binding as the Earn-Out Statement and the Earn-Out Payment, respectively, for such Earn-Out Measurement Period for purposes of this Agreement.
  
 (f) The parties hereto shall make available to Buyer, Seller and, if applicable, the Independent Accountant, such books, records and other information (including work papers) as any of the foregoing may reasonably request to prepare or review the Preliminary Earn-Out Report, the Earn-Out Objection Notice or any matters submitted to the Independent Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant hereunder shall be borne equally by Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand.

 (g) The parties agree that the procedures set forth herein with respect to the Preliminary Earn-Out Report are not intended to permit the introduction of different accounting methods, policies, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies from those used in the preparation of the audited Financial Statements. No adjustment under this Section 1.4 shall limit the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties set forth elsewhere in this Agreement.
  
 (h) Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer (i) shall have sole and absolute discretion regarding the operation of the Company, including without limitation with respect to making employment, personnel and staffing decisions related to the Company and determining whether or not to make capital investments in the Company, provide credit support to the Company or provide guarantees of the obligations of the Company and (ii) shall not be required to operate the Company so as to maximize the Earn-Out Payment.
  
 (i) Payment of the Earn-out Payment may be subject to setoff and reduction for any claims that Buyer or its Affiliates may have against Seller under the indemnification provisions of Article VI hereof or arising after the date hereof and not under this Agreement.
  
 (j) The rights of Seller to the Earn-Out Payment is personal to Seller and shall only be transferable by operation of law, by will or the laws of descent and distribution or to the equity owners of Seller following its dissolution. Any attempted transfer of such right by Seller (other than as permitted by the immediately preceding sentence) shall be null and void.

 (d) Claims arising out of or in connection with any Seller Warranty Breach may be asserted at any time if the applicable representation or warranty was fraudulently made; and
