Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, at the Closing (as hereinafter defined), (i) Acquisition Sub shall be merged with and into Coeptis (the “Merger”); (ii) the separate corporate existence of Acquisition Sub shall thereupon cease and Coeptis will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger and, as a result of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated herein, become a wholly-owned subsidiary (sometimes referred to herein as the “Surviving Subsidiary”) of Vinings, (iii) all the properties, rights and privileges, and power of Coeptis, shall remain with the Surviving Subsidiary, and all debts, liabilities and duties of Coeptis prior to the consummation of the Merger remain the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Subsidiary, and (iv) each share of common stock of Acquisition Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing will be converted into and exchange for one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of the Surviving Subsidiary’s common stock.

(b) Effect on Capital Stock.

Conversion of Coeptis Shares. At the Closing, each Coeptis Share issued and outstanding on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 3, below) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Coeptis, Vinings, Acquisition Sub, or the holders of the Coeptis Shares as of the Closing Date (the “Original Holders”), be converted into and exchanged for one share of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable common stock of Vinings (the “Share Ratio”) such that the Original Holders will be issued a total of twenty-five million one hundred and seventy-eight thousand eight hundred and forty (25,178,840) shares of common stock of Vinings (the “Vinings Common Stock”) as a result of the merger, and such shares shall be distributed pro rata to the holders of one hundred percent (100%) of the Coeptis common stock, subject to the receipt of letters of transmittal and any other documents required of the transfer agent; provided that the number of shares of Vinings Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger shall be increased on a one-for-one basis for each share of Coeptis Common Stock issued by Coeptis between the Effective Date and the Closing Date (which number of additional shares shall not exceed five million (5,000,000) without Vinings’ consent). All shares of Vinings Common Stock issued upon the exchange of Coeptis Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall (i) contain a standard restricted securities legend in compliance with the Securities Act and (ii) be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Coeptis Shares. There shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of Coeptis of the Coeptis Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Closing.

Cancellation of Coeptis Shares. At the Closing, the Coeptis Shares will be deemed canceled and retired and will cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate for Coeptis Shares (which are all in book-entry form) will cease to have any rights with respect thereto; provided, however, that, following the Closing Date, upon delivery of the Exchange Agreement, Vinings will deliver a stock certificate (or alternatively arrange for book entry delivery with a corresponding shareholder statement from the transfer agent) for shares of Vinings Common Stock to which such person is entitled pursuant to the Share Ratio, bearing any necessary or appropriate restrictive legend. The effect of the Merger shall be as provided in the applicable provisions of Delaware Law.

Each stock certificate evidencing ownership of any shares of Acquisition Sub Stock (currently 1,000 shares outstanding) shall, at the Closing, be deemed as merged with and into Coeptis and evidence ownership of the Surviving Subsidiary.

(c) Reorganization. The Parties intend to adopt this Agreement and the Merger as a plan of reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Tax Code. The shares of Vinings Common Stock issued in the Merger will be issued solely in exchange for Coeptis Shares, and no other transaction other than the Merger represents, provides for or is intended to be an adjustment to the consideration paid for the Coeptis Shares.
