THIS AGREEMENT made as of October 2, 2011, between ProValue Automotive Corporation, (the “Buyer”) and ProValue Parts, LLC (the “Seller”)

 

 

IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.                   Purchase of Assets.

Additionally, Buyer shall assume all trade payables of Seller, and shall assume the indebtedness due to Douglas Nagel in the amount of $175,000.

 

2.                   Purchase Price. The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) payable by the Buyer to the Seller for the Assets shall be determined based upon the value of the shares of Buyer once Buyer becomes publicly traded. Buyer is a newly formed entity and will have, upon the closing of this transaction and a private financing, a total of twenty one million (21,000,000) shares issued and outstanding. Five million (5,000,000) of those shares have already been purchased by initial bridge investors. Buyer intends to raise up to $1 million by a private sale of it’s shares at 10 cents per share, therefore it may issue up to ten million (10,000,000) shares for said financing. Once Buyer closes that private sale, however many shares out of the total twenty one million (21,000,000) shares are remaining shall be issued to Seller. All money raised by Buyer, either through the bridge financing or the private sale, shall be delivered to Seller as a part of the purchase price, less reasonable legal, accounting and other costs associated with Buyer going public by direct registration. The shares issued to seller shall be restricted shares, and shall not have registration rights, or otherwise be sold for a period of at least 12 months following the initial trading of Buyer’s stock on the OTCBB or other exchange.

 

3.                   Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be paid and satisfied at Closing by the Buyer by delivery of all case raised by Buyer, either through the bridge financing or private sale, less the reasonable retained costs for going public, plus the amount of shares as determined by the above stated formula once the Buyer has closed the private financing.

 

4.                   Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Assets according to an allocation which the parties undertake settle upon, acting reasonably, prior to Closing. The Seller and the Buyer agree that the amounts so attributed to the Assets are the respective fair market values thereof, and shall file in mutually agreeable form all elections required or desirable under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended in respect of the foregoing allocations.

 

5.                   Closing Date. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.
