Pursuant to the Agreement, EXVG exchanged 100% of its shares in EVUSA (the EVUSA Shares”) for 13 million shares of common stock of Maximus (the “Share Exchange”), resulting in EXVG becoming the majority shareholder of Maximus. EXVG then proceeded to dividend 18 million shares of Maximus common stock to the stockholders of EXVG (“EXVG Stockholders”), on a pro rata basis.
