Prior to the execution of this Agreement, each Party has made available to the other Party the opportunity to review any disclosures made pursuant to this Agreement.

11

  

Section 8.02                                Access and Information.

 

(a)           CannaSys shall: (i) afford MHB and its officers, directors, employees, accountants, consultants, legal counsel, agents, and other representatives (collectively, the “MHB Representatives”) reasonable access at reasonable times, upon reasonable prior notice, to the officers, directors, employees, agents, properties, offices, and other facilities of CannaSys (including any subsidiary) and to the books and records thereof; and (ii) furnish promptly to MHB and MHB Representatives such information concerning the business, properties, contracts, records, and personnel of CannaSys (including financial, operating, and other data and information) as may be reasonably requested, from time to time, by MHB and MHB Representatives.

 

(b)           MHB shall: (i) afford to CannaSys and its officers, directors, employees, accountants, consultants, legal counsel, agents, and other representatives (collectively, the “CannaSys Representatives”), reasonable access at reasonable times, upon reasonable prior notice, to the officers, directors, employees, accountants, agents, properties, offices, and other facilities of MHB and to the books and records thereof; and (ii) furnish promptly to CannaSys and the CannaSys Representatives such information concerning the business, properties, contracts, records, and personnel of MHB (including financial, operating, and other data and information) as may be reasonably requested, from time to time, by CannaSys and the CannaSys Representatives.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, no Party shall be required to grant access or furnish information to the other Party to the extent that such access to or the furnishing of such information is prohibited by Applicable Law. No investigation by the Parties made heretofore or hereafter shall affect the representations and warranties of the Parties that are herein contained, and each such representation and warranty shall survive such investigation.

 

(d)           The information received pursuant to this section shall be deemed to be “Confidential Information.” Each Party agrees that it will treat in confidence all documents, materials, and other Confidential Information that it shall have obtained regarding the other Party during the course of the negotiations leading to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (whether obtained before or after the date of this Agreement), the investigation provided for herein, and the preparation of this Agreement and other related documents. Such documents, materials, and other Confidential Information shall not be communicated to any third Person (other than to such Party’s respective counsel, accountants, financial advisers, or lenders) and shall not be used for any purpose to the detriment of the other Party. No Party shall use any Confidential Information in any manner whatsoever except solely for the purpose of evaluating a possible business relationship with the other Party. No Party and no MHB Representative or CannaSys Representative will, during the term of this Agreement or at any time during the two years thereafter, irrespective of the time, manner, or cause of termination of this Agreement, use, disclose, copy, or assist any other Person in the use, disclosure, or copying of any documents, materials, or other Confidential Information of the other Party.

 

Section 8.03                                No Representation or Opinions Regarding Certain Legal Matters.

 

(a)           No representation or warranty is being made or legal opinion given by any Party to any other regarding the treatment of this transaction for federal or state income taxation. Each Party has relied exclusively on its own legal, accounting, and other tax advisers regarding the treatment of this transaction for federal and state income taxes and on no representation, warranty, or assurance from any other Party or such other Party’s legal, accounting, or other advisers.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding the covenants respecting reliance on an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and limited preemption under applicable laws set forth in this Article 7, each Party acknowledges that it has relied exclusively on its own legal advisers regarding the availability of such exemption and preemption and on no representation, warranty, or assurance from any other Party or such other Party’s legal advisers. Inasmuch as the basis for relying on exemptions is factual, depending on the conduct of the Parties and their representatives in connection with the Exchange and soliciting shareholder consents, the Parties will not receive a legal opinion to the effect that this Exchange and the issuance of CannaSys Shares are exempt or preempted from registration under any federal or state law. Instead, the Parties will rely on the operative facts as documented by them as their basis for such exemptions.

 

Section 8.04                                Further Assurances. Each Party shall use all reasonable efforts to: (a) take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper, or advisable under Applicable Laws or otherwise to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (b) obtain from any governmental entities any consents, waivers, Authorizations, or orders required to be obtained or made by them or any subsidiary in connection with the authorization, execution, and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Exchange; (c) make all necessary filings, and thereafter make any other required submissions, respecting this Agreement and the Exchange required under: (i) the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, and any other applicable federal or state securities laws; and (ii) any other Applicable Law; and, each Party shall cooperate with the other in connection with the making of all such filings, including providing copies of all such documents to the other Party and its advisers prior to the filings and, if requested, shall accept all reasonable additions, deletions, or changes suggested in connection therewith. Each Party shall furnish all information required for any application or other filing to be made pursuant to the rules and regulations of any Applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

Section 8.05                                Public Announcements. The Parties agree that no public release, announcement, or any other disclosure concerning any of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be made or issued by any Party without the prior written consent of both Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except to the extent such release, announcement, or disclosure may be required by Applicable Laws, in which case the Party required to make the release, announcement or disclosure shall allow the other Party, as applicable, reasonable time to comment on such release, announcement or disclosure in advance of such issuance or disclosure; but no notice is required if the disclosure is determined by the CannaSys’s legal counsel to be required under federal or state securities laws or exchange regulation applicable to CannaSys.

 

Section 8.06                                Expenses and Fees. Except as provided below, each Party shall be solely responsible for its own costs and expenses (including legal expenses, accounting expenses, and brokers or finders’ fees and expenses), and the costs and expenses of its affiliates, in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above and in consideration of CannaSys’s legal counsel’s services in connection with this Exchange and the preparation of prior documents and agreements relating to prior proposed transactions between the Parties and this transaction, MHB or the Company shall pay $7,500.00 to Kruse Landa Maycock Ricks, PLLC (“KLMR”) to be paid within 30 days after the Closing Date.

The Parties shall cause to be drafted, and filed for public record in the state of Nevada, as required to organize the Company under the laws of the state of Nevada, which will be operated and governed in accordance with articles or a certificate of incorporation, bylaws, and other organizational documents (the “Company Charter”) and such other terms and conditions as are usually and customary in similar agreements between unrelated parties, to be completed and executed within 30 days after the execution of this agreement, as provided below.  The Company Charter and related organizational steps will be structured in a manner to consolidate the financial statements of the Company with the financial statements of CannaSys, subject to recognition of MHB minority interest.  Such consolidation treatment shall be effected through a greater than 50% voting interest held by CannaSys, board control of CannaSys, or any combination of the foregoing or other provisions as the parties may determine.

 

Section 8.08                                Shareholder Resale Lockup Agreements.  CannaSys shall use commercially reasonable efforts following the Closing Date to obtain the agreement of its officers, directors, and significant stockholders to limit resale of their common stock in CannaSys in such amounts and at such times as the board of directors of CannaSys may specify in such agreements.  MHB shall collaborate with CannaSys and use its best efforts to cause its principal stockholders to enter into similar agreements.

Neither the failure nor any delay by any Party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege.

Each Party hereby expressly waives any and all rights to bring any suit, action, or other proceeding in or before any court or tribunal other than the courts described above and covenants that it shall not seek in any manner to resolve any dispute other than as set forth in this Agreement or to challenge or set aside any decision, award, or judgment obtained in accordance with the provisions hereof.

 

(b)           Each Party hereby expressly waives any and all objections it may have to venue, including the inconvenience of such forum, in any of such courts. In addition, each Party consents to the service of process by personal service or any manner in which notices may be delivered hereunder in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the aforementioned waiver of venue objection, each Party mutually agrees to initially attempt to resolve any dispute in Colorado, subject to the governing law provided above, before relocating to an alternate venue if necessary.

 

Section 10.10                                Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Party hereby voluntarily and irrevocably waives trial by jury in any action or other proceeding brought in connection with this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

The arbitrator shall submit written findings of fact and conclusions of law. The arbitrator shall have authority only to interpret and apply provisions of this Agreement and shall have no authority to add to, subtract from, or modify terms of this Agreement. The judgment of the arbitrator shall be binding and may be entered as a final judgment by any court having jurisdiction over the Parties. In the event that any Party shall initiate arbitration based on this Agreement, or take other permitted legal action for the enforcement or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement, including such suit or action as may be necessary or germane to resolve or address any issues peculiar to federal bankruptcy law, the prevailing party in such action shall, in addition to whatever judgment is rendered or award granted on its behalf, be entitled to its reasonable costs and expenses in connection with such action, including reasonable attorney’s fees.

 

Section 10.12                                Severability. If any portion of this Agreement shall be finally determined by any court or governmental agency of competent jurisdiction to violate Applicable Law or otherwise not to conform to requirements of Applicable Law and, therefore, to be invalid, the Parties will cooperate to remedy or avoid the invalidity, but in any event, will not upset the general balance of relationships created or intended to be created between them as manifested by this Agreement and the instruments referred to herein. Except insofar as it would be an abuse of the foregoing principle, the remaining provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect.
