Capital
Stock of the BAC. Each issued and outstanding share of the BAC’s
capital stock continued to be issued and outstanding and was converted
into one share of validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable
common stock of the Surviving Company (Bodisen Holdings, Inc.). Each
stock
certi¢cate of the
BAC evidencing ownership of any such shares continued to evidence
ownership of such shares of
capital stock of the Surviving
Company.

(b)
|
Conversion
of BII Shares. Each BII
Share that was issued and outstanding at the E¡ective Time was
automatically
cancelled and extinguished and converted, without any action on the
part
of the holder thereof,
into the right to receive at the time and in the amounts described
in the
Agreement an amount of
Acquisition Shares equal to the number of Acquisition Shares divided
by
the number of BII Shares
outstanding immediately prior to Closing. All such BII
Shares, so converted, were no longer outstanding and were automatically
cancelled and retired and ceased to exist, and each holder of a
certi¢cate
representing any such shares ceased to have any rights with respect
thereto, except the right to
receive the Acquisition Shares paid in consideration therefore upon
the
surrender of such certi¢cate
in
accordance with the Agreement.
|
(c)
|
Within
thirty (30) days from the Closing Date, Stratabid was required to
sell its
business operations, as they
exist immediately prior to the Closing, to Derek Wasson, former president.
In consideration of the
sale, Mr. Wasson returned 750,000 Company Common Shares to Stratabid
for
cancellation. In
addition, Mr. Wasson forgave all indebtedness owed by Stratabid to
Mr.
Wasson. Other than indebtedness
of BII, Stratabid had no indebtedness or other liability of any kind
or
nature after the sale
of
the business to Mr. Wasson, save and except for liabilities incurred
in
connection with the Merger.

Capital
Stock of the BAC. Each issued and outstanding share of the BAC’s capital
stock continued to be issued and outstanding and was converted into
one
share of validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable
common stock of the Surviving Company (Bodisen Holdings, Inc.). Each
stock
certi¢cate of the
BAC evidencing ownership of any such shares continued to evidence
ownership of such shares of
capital stock of the Surviving
Company.
|
(b)
|
Conversion
of BII Shares. Each BII
Share that was issued and outstanding at the E¡ective Time was
automatically cancelled and extinguished and converted, without
any action
on the part of the holder thereof, into the right to receive at
the time
and in the amounts described in the Agreement an amount of Acquisition
Shares equal to the number of Acquisition Shares divided by the
number of
BII Shares outstanding immediately prior to Closing. All such BII
Shares, so converted, were no longer outstanding and were automatically
cancelled and retired and ceased to exist, and each holder of a
certi¢cate
representing any such shares ceased to have any rights with respect
thereto, except the right to
receive the Acquisition Shares paid in consideration therefore
upon the
surrender of such certi¢cate
in
accordance with the Agreement.
|
(c) |
Within thirty (30) days from
the Closing
Date, Stratabid was required to sell its business operations, as
they
exist immediately prior to the Closing, to Derek Wasson, former
president.
In consideration of the sale, Mr. Wasson returned 750,000 Common
Shares to
Stratabid for cancellation. In
addition, Mr. Wasson
forgave all indebtedness owed by Stratabid to Mr. Wasson. Other
than
indebtedness of BII, Stratabid
had no indebtedness or other liability of any kind or nature after
the
sale of the business to
Mr. Wasson, save and except for liabilities incurred in connection
with
the Merger.

assumes
the conversion of all of the convertible debenture and exercise of
all of
the warrants they are entitled to, provided, however, that the number
of
shares which could be obtained pursuant to the convertible debenture
and
the warrants are subject to adjustment in certain
circumstances.
|
(2)
|
pursuant
to the terms of the convertible debenture and warrant agreements,
Amulet
Limited agreed to limit its right to convert the debenture and exercise
the warrants so that it can acquire only up to 4.99% of the
Company’s
outstanding common
stock unless Amulet Limited gives 60 days’
notice to the Company, in which case, Amulet Limited could acquire
up
to
9.99% of the Company’s
outstanding Common Stock (through the conversion of the debentures
and
exercise of the warrants and open market
purchases).
|
(ii)
|
Exercise
Price The
exercise price will be determined by the Board, subject to the following
limitations:
|
(a)
|
Any
Incentive Stock Option granted to a person who at the time the Option
is
granted owns (or
is deemed to own pursuant to Section 424(d) of the U.S. Internal
Revenue
Code) stock
possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting
power
or value of all classes
of stock of the Company (‘‘Ten
Percent Holder’’)
shall have an exercise price of no
less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock as of the date
of
grant; and
|
(b)
|
Incentive
Stock Options granted to a person who at the time the Option is granted
is
not a Ten Percent Holder shall have an exercise price of no less
than 100%
of the Fair Market Value of the Stock as of the date of
grant.
|
(a)
|
The
Placing Agreement and the Nominated Adviser Agreement, details of
which
are set out at paragraph 16 below.
|
(d)
|
On
December 8, 2005, the Company issued a $5,000,000 promissory note
(the
‘‘Note’’)
to Amaranth Partners
L.L.C. (the ‘‘Payee’’)
in consideration of a $5,000,000 loan from the Payee to the
Company.
|
(i)
|
Subject
to certain limited exceptions, U.S. withholding tax at the rate of
15% is
imposed on dividends
paid by the Company to Stockholders who are resident (for tax purposes)
in
the United Kingdom.
The rate of withholding tax on dividends paid to a Stockholder who
is not
resident (for
tax purposes) in the United Kingdom will depend on the existence
and terms
of any double taxation convention between the United States and the
country in which the Stockholder is
resident.
|
(ii)
|
Subject
to certain limited exceptions, Stockholders who are resident (for
tax
purposes) in the United Kingdom and who receive a dividend paid by
the
Company will be entitled to have any U.S.
withholding tax imposed on that dividend allowed as a credit against
any
United Kingdom
tax that is chargeable by reference to that same
dividend.
|
(iii)
|
An
individual Stockholder who is resident (for tax purposes) in the
United
Kingdom and who receives a dividend paid by the Company will be taxed
upon
the gross amount of the dividend (i.e.,
before deduction of the U.S. withholding tax) in the United Kingdom.
For
that purpose, the
dividend will be regarded as the top slice of the individual’s income. An
individual Stockholder who is liable to tax at the U.K. basic rate
(currently 22%) will pay tax at the dividend income ordinary rate
(currently 10%). Accordingly, United Kingdom tax charge will not
usually
be su¡ered
in practice as U.S. withholding tax at the rate of 15% will normally
be
allowed as a credit
against the United Kingdom tax charge. It
is
not possible, however, to reclaim any di¡erence between the United Kingdom
tax charge and the U.S. withholding tax from HM Revenue & Customs. The
total tax imposed on the dividend therefore remains a minimum of
15%. To
the extent
that the individual pays tax at the higher rate (currently 40%) the
individual will be taxable
at
the dividend income upper rate (currently 3 2.5%) in respect of the
gross
amount (i.e. the amount of the dividends before deduction of the
U.S.
withholding tax). Again U.S. withholding tax at the rate of 15% will
normally be allowed as a credit against the United Kingdom tax
charge.
Accordingly, a Stockholder who is a higher rate taxpayer in the UK
will
su¡er a total tax
charge of 32.5% of the dividend. U.S. withholding tax generally cannot
be
reclaimed from HM Revenue & Customs by Stockholders with no tax
liability.
|
(iv)
|
Subject
to certain limited exceptions a Stockholder which is a company
resident
(for tax purposes) in the United Kingdom and which receives a dividend
paid by the Company will be liable to U.K. corporation tax on that
dividend. U.S. withholding tax at the rate of 15% will normally
be allowed as a credit against the United Kingdom tax charge. Where
the
corporation
tax payable on the dividend is less than 15%, U.S. withholding
tax cannot
be reclaimed from HM Revenue &
Customs.
|
(v) |
For the purpose of calculating the amount of the tax credit to be allowed against the United Kingdom tax charge on dividends, U.S. withholding tax is converted into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling on the date that the tax is withheld. |
The
right of a Stockholder who is not resident (for tax purposes) in
the
United Kingdom to a tax
credit in respect of a dividend received will depend on the existence
and
terms of any double taxation convention between the United States
and the
country in which the Stockholder is resident. Stockholders who
are not
resident in the United Kingdom for tax purposes should consult
their own tax advisers concerning their tax liabilities on dividends
received, whether they
are entitled to claim any part of the tax credit and, if so, the
procedure
for doing so.

corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized
under U.S. law (federal or state);

(4)

trust if a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over
administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have authority
to
control all substantial decisions of the trust, or if the trust has

treated as a U.S. person; or

(5)

The
expenses of the Placing are estimated at approximately »*,
excluding VAT, of which »*
(excluding VAT) is payable by the Company.
|
(b)
|
The
Common Stock is not currently admitted to dealings on a recognised
investment exchange and, other than the Company’s application for the
Common Stock, both issued and to be issued under the Placing, to
be
admitted to trading on AIM, no applications for such admission
have been
made.
