SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT

 

This SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of February 10, 2010, is by and among Deerfield Resources, Ltd., a Nevada corporation ("Deerfield"), Leading Asia Pacific Investment Limited, a British Virgin Islands company ("Leading Asia"), and the sole shareholder of Leading Asia, Unitech International Investment Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands Company (the "Shareholder"). Each of the parties to this Agreement is individually referred to herein as a "Party" and collectively, as the "Parties." Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Annex A hereto.

A.           Leading Asia has 50,000 ordinary shares (the "Leading Asia Stock") issued and outstanding, which are held by the Shareholder. The Shareholder has agreed to transfer all of its shares of Leading Asia Stock in exchange for 25,250,000 newly issued shares of the Common Stock, $.001 par value, of Deerfield (the "Deerfield Stock"), constituting 90.18% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Deerfield on a fully diluted basis, as of and immediately after the Closing and after giving effect to the Cancellation Agreement (as defined in Section 5.1(r)).

 

B.           The Board of Directors of each of Deerfield and Leading Asia has determined that it is desirable to effect this plan of reorganization and share exchange.

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE I

Exchange of Shares

 

1.1.          Share Exchange. At the Closing, the Shareholder shall sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver to Deerfield its Leading Asia Stock free and clear of all Liens, in exchange for 25,250,000 newly issued shares of Deerfield Stock (referred to herein as the "Shares").

 

1.2.          Closing. The closing (the "Closing") of the transactions contemplated hereby (the "Transactions") shall take place at the offices of Pillsbury ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP in San Francisco, CA, commencing at 9:00 a.m. local time on the second business day following the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the Transactions (other than conditions with respect to actions that the respective parties will take at Closing) or such other date and time as the Parties may mutually determine (the "Closing Date").

 

 

ARTICLE II

Representations and Warranties of the Shareholder

  

The Shareholder hereby represents and warrants to Deerfield as follows:

 

2.1.          Good Title. The Shareholder is the record and beneficial owner, and has good title to its Leading Asia Stock, with the right and authority to sell and deliver such Leading Asia Stock. Upon delivery of any certificate or certificates duly assigned, representing the same as herein contemplated and/or upon registering of Deerfield as the new owner of such Leading Asia Stock in the share register of Leading Asia, Deerfield will receive good title to such Leading Asia Stock, free and clear of all Liens.

 

2.2.          Organization. The Shareholder is duly organized and validly existing in its jurisdiction of organization.

 

2.3.          Power and Authority. The Shareholder has the legal power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. All acts required to be taken by the Shareholder to enter into this Agreement and to carry out the Transactions have been properly taken. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Shareholder, enforceable against the Shareholder in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

2.4.          No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Shareholder and the performance by the Shareholder of its obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof: (a) will not require the consent of any third party or Governmental Entity under any Laws; (b) will not violate any Laws applicable to the Shareholder; and (c) will not violate or breach any contractual obligation to which the Shareholder is a party.

 

2.5.          Litigation. There is no pending proceeding against the Shareholder that involves the Shares or that challenges, or may have the effect of preventing, delaying or making illegal, or otherwise interfering with, any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, to the knowledge of the Shareholder, no such proceeding has been threatened, and no event or circumstance exists that is reasonably likely to give rise to or serve as a basis for the commencement of any such proceeding.

 

2.6.          No Finder's Fee. The Shareholder has not created any obligation for any finder's, investment banker's or broker's fee in connection with the Transactions that are not payable entirely by the Shareholder.

 

2.7.          Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Shareholder is acquiring the Deerfield Stock proposed to be acquired hereunder for investment for its own account and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and the Shareholder has no present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the Deerfield Stock, except in compliance with applicable United States and foreign securities laws.

 

2.8.          Available Information. The Shareholder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investment in Deerfield and has had full access to all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Deerfield Stock.

 

  

2.9.          Non-Registration. The Shareholder understands that the Deerfield Stock has not been registered under the Securities Act and, if issued in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, will be issued by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Shareholder's representations and warranties as expressed herein.

 

2.10.         Restricted Securities. The Shareholder understands that the Shares are characterized as "restricted securities" under the Securities Act inasmuch as this Agreement contemplates that, if acquired by the Shareholder pursuant hereto, the Shares would be acquired in a transaction not involving a public offering. The issuance of the Shares hereunder is being effected in reliance upon an exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering. The Shareholder further acknowledges that if the Shares are issued to the Shareholder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, such Shares may not be resold without registration under the Securities Act or the existence of an exemption therefrom. The Shareholder represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

 

2.11.        Accredited Investor. The Shareholder is an "Accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act and the Shareholder was not organized for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares.

 

2.12.        Legends. It is understood that the Deerfield Stock will bear the following legend or one that is substantially similar to the following legend:

 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND NEITHER SUCH SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, IN WHICH CASE THE HOLDER MUST, PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER, FURNISH TO THE COMPANY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION ARE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

 

2.13.        Additional Legend. Additionally, the Deerfield Stock will bear any legend required by the "Blue Sky" laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the securities represented by the certificate so legended.

 

2.14.       Disclosure. This Agreement, the schedules hereto and any certificate attached hereto or delivered in accordance with the terms hereof by or on behalf of the Shareholder in connection with the Transactions, when taken together, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein and/or therein not misleading.

 

  

ARTICLE III

Representations and Warranties of Leading Asia

 

Subject to the exceptions set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter (regardless of whether or not the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter is referenced below with respect to any particular representation or warranty), Leading Asia represents and warrants to Deerfield and the Shareholder as follows.

 

3.1.          Organization. Standing and Power. Leading Asia and each of its subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized and has the corporate power and authority and possesses all governmental franchises, licenses, permits, authorizations and approvals necessary to enable it to own, lease or otherwise hold its properties and assets and to conduct its businesses as presently conducted, other than such franchises, licenses, permits, authorizations and approvals the lack of which, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Leading Asia and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, a material adverse effect on the ability of Leading Asia to perform its obligations under this Agreement or on the ability of Leading Asia to consummate the Transactions (a "Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect"). Leading Asia and each of its subsidiaries is duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business or its ownership or leasing of its properties make such qualification necessary except where the failure to so qualify would not reasonably be expected to have a Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect. Leading Asia has delivered to Deerfield true and complete copies of the Leading Asia Constituent Instruments, and true and complete copies of each of the comparable charter, organizational documents and other constituent instruments of each of its subsidiaries, in each case as amended through the date of this Agreement.

 

3.2.          Subsidiaries: Equity Interests.

 

(a)          The Leading Asia Disclosure Letter lists each subsidiary of Leading Asia and its jurisdiction of organization. All the outstanding shares of capital stock or equity investments of each subsidiary have been validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable and are as of the date of this Agreement owned by Leading Asia or by another subsidiary of Leading Asia, free and clear of all Liens.

 

(b)          Except for its interests in its subsidiaries, Leading Asia does not, as of the date of this Agreement, own, directly or indirectly, any capital stock, membership interest, partnership interest, joint venture interest or other equity interest in any person.

 

3.3.          Capital Structure. The authorized capital stock of Leading Asia consists of 50,000 ordinary shares, all of which are issued and outstanding. Except as set forth above, no shares of capital stock or other voting securities of Leading Asia are issued, reserved for issuance or outstanding. Leading Asia is the sole record and beneficial owner of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each of its subsidiaries. All outstanding shares of the capital stock of Leading Asia and each of its subsidiaries are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to or issued in violation of any purchase option, call option, right of first refusal, preemptive right, subscription right or any similar right under any provision of the applicable corporate laws of the British Virgin Islands, the Leading Asia Constituent Instruments or any Contract to which Leading Asia is a party or otherwise bound. There are not any bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness of Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries having the right to vote (or convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities having the right to vote) on any matters on which holders of Leading Asia Stock or the capital stock of any of its subsidiaries may vote ("Voting Leading Asia Debt"). As of the date of this Agreement, there are not any options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities, "phantom" stock rights, stock appreciation rights, stock-based performance units, commitments, Contracts, arrangements or undertakings of any kind to which Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them is bound (a) obligating Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries to issue, deliver or sell, or cause to be issued, delivered or sold, additional shares of capital stock or other equity interests in, or any security convertible or exercisable for or exchangeable into any capital stock of or other equity interest in, Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries or any Voting Leading Asia Debt, (b) obligating Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries to issue, grant, extend or enter into any such option, warrant, call, right, security, commitment, Contract, arrangement or undertaking or (c) that give any person the right to receive any economic benefit or right similar to or derived from the economic benefits and rights occurring to holders of the capital stock of Leading Asia or of any of its subsidiaries. As of the date of this Agreement, there are not any outstanding contractual obligations of Leading Asia to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock of Leading Asia.

 

 

3.4.          Authority; Execution and Delivery; Enforceability. Leading Asia has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions. The execution and delivery by Leading Asia of this Agreement and the consummation by Leading Asia of the Transactions have been duly authorized and approved by the Board of Directors of Leading Asia and no other corporate proceedings on the part of Leading Asia are necessary to authorize this Agreement and the Transactions. When executed and delivered, this Agreement will be enforceable against Leading Asia in accordance with its terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by laws affecting creditor's rights generally).

 

3.5.          No Conflicts; Consents.

 

(a)          The execution and delivery by Leading Asia of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of the Transactions and compliance with the terms hereof will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries under, any provision of (i) the Leading Asia Constituent Instruments or the comparable charter or organizational documents of any of its subsidiaries, (ii) any Contract to which Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their respective properties or assets is subject or (iii) subject to the filings and other matters referred to in Section 3.5(b), any material judgment, order or decree or material Law applicable to Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries or their respective properties or assets, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, any such items that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect.

 

 

(b)          Except for required filings with the SEC and applicable "Blue Sky" or state securities commissions, no Consent of, or registration, declaration or filing with, or permit from, any Governmental Entity is required to be obtained or made by or with respect to Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions.

 

3.6.         Taxes.

 

(a)          Leading Asia and each of its subsidiaries has timely filed, or has caused to be timely filed on its behalf, all Tax Returns required to be filed by it, and all such Tax Returns are true, complete and accurate, except to the extent any failure to file or any inaccuracies in any filed Tax Returns, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect. All Taxes shown to be due on such Tax Returns, or otherwise owed, have been timely paid, except to the extent that any failure to pay, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of Leading Asia know of no basis for any such claim.

 

(b)          The Leading Asia Financial Statements reflect an adequate reserve for all Taxes payable by Leading Asia and its subsidiaries (in addition to any reserve for deferred Taxes to reflect timing differences between book and Tax items) for all Taxable periods and portions thereof through the date of such financial statements. No deficiency with respect to any Taxes has been proposed, asserted or assessed against Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries, and no requests for waivers of the time to assess any such Taxes are pending, except to the extent any such deficiency or request for waiver, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect.

 

3.7.         Benefit Plans.

 

(a)          Except as set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter, neither Leading Asia nor any of its subsidiaries maintains any collective bargaining agreement or any bonus, pension, profit sharing, deferred compensation, incentive compensation, stock ownership, stock purchase, stock option, phantom stock, retirement, vacation, severance, disability, death benefit, hospitalization, medical or other plan, arrangement or understanding (whether or not legally binding) providing benefits to any current or former employee, officer or director of Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries. Except as set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter, as of the date of this Agreement there are not any severance or termination agreements or arrangements between Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries and any current or former employee, officer or director of Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries, nor does Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries have any general severance plan or policy.

 

(b)          Since September 30, 2009, there has not been any adoption or amendment in any material respect by Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries of any plan described in Section 3.7(a).

 

 

3.8.          Litigation. Except as set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter, there is no Action against or affecting Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties which (a) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of this Agreement or the Shares or (b) could, if there were an unfavorable decision, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect. Neither Leading Asia nor any of its subsidiaries, nor any director or officer thereof (in his or her capacity as such), is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim or violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty.

 

3.9.          Compliance with Applicable Laws. Except as set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter, Leading Asia and each of its subsidiaries have conducted their business and operations in compliance with all applicable Laws, including those relating to occupational health and safety and the environment, except for instances of noncompliance that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect. Leading Asia has not received any written communication during the past two years from a Governmental Entity that alleges that Leading Asia is not in compliance in any material respect with any applicable Law. This Section 3.9 does not relate to matters with respect to Taxes, which are the subject of Section 3.6.

 

3.10.        Brokers. Except as set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter, no broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other person is entitled to any broker's, finder's, financial advisor's or other similar fee or commission in connection with the Transactions based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries.

 

3.11.        Contracts. Except as set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter, there are no Contracts that are material to the business, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations or prospects of Leading Asia and its subsidiaries taken as a whole. Neither Leading Asia nor any of its subsidiaries is in violation of or in default under (nor to the knowledge of Leading Asia does there exist any condition which upon the passage of time or the giving of notice would cause such a violation of or default under) any Contract to which it is a party or to which it or any of its properties or assets is subject, except for violations or defaults that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect.

 

3.12.        Title to Properties. Except as set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter, neither Leading Asia nor any of its subsidiaries own any real property. Leading Asia and each of its subsidiaries has sufficient title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all of its properties and assets used in the conduct of its businesses. All such assets and properties, other than assets and properties in which Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries has leasehold interests, are free and clear of all Liens other than those set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter and except for Liens that, individually or in the aggregate, do not and will not materially interfere with the ability of Leading Asia and its subsidiaries to conduct business as currently conducted.

 

3.13.        Intellectual Property. Leading Asia and each of its subsidiaries own, or are validly licensed or otherwise have the right to use, all Intellectual Property Rights which are material to the conduct of the business of Leading Asia and its subsidiaries taken as a whole. The Leading Asia Disclosure Letter sets forth a description of all Intellectual Property Rights which are material to the conduct of the business of Leading Asia and its subsidiaries. There are no claims pending or, to the knowledge of Leading Asia, threatened that Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries is infringing or otherwise adversely affecting the rights of any person with regard to any Intellectual Property Right. To the knowledge of Leading Asia, no person is infringing the rights of Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries with respect to any Intellectual Property Right.

 

  

3.14.        Labor Matters. There are no collective bargaining or other labor union agreements to which Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them is bound. No material labor dispute exists or, to the knowledge of Leading Asia, is imminent with respect to any of the employees of Leading Asia.

 

3.15.        Financial Statements: Liabilities. Leading Asia has delivered to Deerfield its audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and its unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 (collectively, the "Leading Asia Financial Statements"). The Leading Asia Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated. The Leading Asia Financial Statements fairly present in all material respects the financial condition and operating results of Leading Asia, as of the dates, and for the periods, set forth therein. Leading Asia does not have any material liabilities or obligations, contingent or otherwise, other than (a) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business subsequent to September 30, 2009, and (b) obligations under contracts and commitments incurred in the ordinary course of business and not required under generally accepted accounting principles to be reflected in the Leading Asia Financial Statements, which, in both cases, individually or in the aggregate, are not material and would not be reasonably expected to result in a Leading Asia Material Adverse Effect.

 

3.16.        Insurance. Leading Asia and each of its subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which Leading Asia and its subsidiaries are engaged and in the geographic areas where they engage in such businesses. Leading Asia has no reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its and its subsidiaries' existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business on terms consistent with market for Leading Asia's and such subsidiaries' respective lines of business.

 

3.17.        Transactions with Affiliates and Employees. Except as set forth in the Leading Asia Disclosure Letter and the Leading Asia Financial Statements, none of the officers or directors of Leading Asia and, to the knowledge of Leading Asia, none of the employees of Leading Asia is presently a party to any transaction with Leading Asia or any of its subsidiaries (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any Contract or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of Leading Asia, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.

 

  

3.18.        Internal Accounting Controls. Leading Asia and its consolidated subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (a) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations, (b) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, (c) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, and (d) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Leading Asia has established disclosure controls and procedures for its company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to Leading Asia and its subsidiaries are made known to the officers by others within those entities. The officers of Leading Asia have evaluated the effectiveness of Leading Asia's controls and procedures. Since September 30, 2009, there have been no significant changes in Leading Asia's internal controls or, to Leading Asia's best knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect Leading Asia's internal controls.

 

3.19.        Solvency. Based on the financial condition of Leading Asia as of the Closing Date (and assuming that the Closing shall have occurred): (a) Leading Asia's fair saleable value of its assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of Leading Asia's existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature; (b) Leading Asia's assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for the current fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by Leading Asia, and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof; and (c) the current cash flow of Leading Asia, together with the proceeds Leading Asia would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts are required to be paid. Leading Asia does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).

 

3.20.        Application of Takeover Protections. Leading Asia has taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Leading Asia Constituent Instruments or the laws of its jurisdiction of organization that is or could become applicable to the Shareholder as a result of the Shareholder and Leading Asia fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Shares and the Shareholder's ownership of the Shares.

ARTICLE IV

Representations and Warranties of Deerfield

 

Deerfield represents and warrants as follows to Leading Asia and the Shareholder.

 

4.1.          Organization, Standing and Power. Deerfield is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has full corporate power and authority and possesses all governmental franchises, licenses, permits, authorizations and approvals necessary to enable it to own, lease or otherwise hold its properties and assets and to conduct its businesses as presently conducted, other than such franchises, licenses, permits, authorizations and approvals the lack of which, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Deerfield, a material adverse effect on the ability of Deerfield to perform its obligations under this Agreement or on the ability of Deerfield to consummate the Transactions (a "Deerfield Material Adverse Effect"). Deerfield is duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business or its ownership or leasing of its properties makes such qualification necessary and where the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a Deerfield Material Adverse Effect. Deerfield has delivered to Leading Asia or its counsel true and complete copies of the Deerfield Charter and the Deerfield Bylaws.

 

  

4.2.          Subsidiaries; Equity Interests. Deerfield does not own, directly or indirectly, any capital stock, membership interest, partnership interest, joint venture interest or other equity interest in any person.

 

4.3.          Capital Structure. The authorized capital stock of Deerfield consists of 300,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value, and 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, $.001 par value. As of the date hereof (a) 275,000,000 shares of Deerfield's common stock are issued and outstanding, (b) no shares of preferred stock are issued and outstanding, and (c) no shares of Deerfield's common stock or preferred stock are held by Deerfield in its treasury. Except as set forth above, no shares of capital stock or other voting securities of Deerfield were issued, reserved for issuance or outstanding. All outstanding shares of the capital stock of Deerfield are, and all such shares that may be issued prior to the date hereof will be when issued, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to or issued in violation of any purchase option, call option, right of first refusal, preemptive right, subscription right or any similar right under any provision of the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Deerfield Charter, the Deerfield Bylaws or any Contract to which Deerfield is a party or otherwise bound. There are not any bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness of Deerfield having the right to vote (or convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities having the right to vote) on any matters on which holders of Deerfield's common stock may vote ("Voting Deerfield Debt"). As of the date of this Agreement, there are not any options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities, "phantom" stock rights, stock appreciation rights, stock-based performance units, commitments, Contracts, arrangements or undertakings of any kind to which Deerfield is a party or by which it is bound (a) obligating Deerfield to issue, deliver or sell, or cause to be issued, delivered or sold, additional shares of capital stock or other equity interests in, or any security convertible or exercisable for or exchangeable into any capital stock of or other equity interest in, Deerfield or any Voting Deerfield Debt, (b) obligating Deerfield to issue, grant, extend or enter into any such option, warrant, call, right, security, commitment, Contract, arrangement or undertaking or (c) that give any person the right to receive any economic benefit or right similar to or derived from the economic benefits and rights occurring to holders of the capital stock of Deerfield. As of the date of this Agreement, there are not any outstanding contractual obligations of Deerfield to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock of Deerfield. The stockholder list provided to Leading Asia or its counsel is a current stockholder list generated by its stock transfer agent, and such list accurately reflects all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Deerfield's common stock as of the date of such report.

The execution and delivery by Deerfield of this Agreement and the consummation by Deerfield of the Transactions have been duly authorized and approved by the Board of Directors of Deerfield and no other corporate proceedings on the part of Deerfield are necessary to authorize this Agreement and the Transactions. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Deerfield, enforceable against Deerfield in accordance with the terms hereof (except as such enforceability may be limited by laws affecting creditor's rights generally).

 

4.5.         No Conflicts: Consents.

 

(a)          The execution and delivery by Deerfield of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of Transactions and compliance with the terms hereof will not, contravene, conflict with or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or to increased, additional, accelerated or guaranteed rights or entitlements of any person under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of Deerfield under, any provision of (i) the Deerfield Charter or Deerfield Bylaws, (ii) any material Contract to which Deerfield is a party or to which any of its properties or assets is subject or (iii) subject to the filings and other matters referred to in Section 4.5(b), any material Order or material Law applicable to Deerfield or its properties or assets, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, any such items that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Deerfield Material Adverse Effect.

4.6.         Taxes.

 

(a)          Deerfield has timely filed, or has caused to be timely filed on its behalf, all Tax Returns required to be filed by it, and all such Tax Returns are true, complete and accurate, except to the extent any failure to file, any delinquency in filing or any inaccuracies in any filed Tax Returns, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Deerfield Material Adverse Effect. All Taxes shown to be due on such Tax Returns, or otherwise owed, have been timely paid, except to the extent that any failure to pay, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Deerfield Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)          The most recent financial statements contained in the SEC Reports reflect an adequate reserve for all Taxes payable by Deerfield (in addition to any reserve for deferred Taxes to reflect timing differences between book and Tax items) for all Taxable periods and portions thereof through the date of such financial statements. No deficiency with respect to any Taxes has been proposed, asserted or assessed against Deerfield, and no requests for waivers of the time to assess any such Taxes are pending, except to the extent any such deficiency or request for waiver, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Deerfield Material Adverse Effect.

There is no Action against or affecting Deerfield or any of its properties which (a) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of either of this Agreement or the Shares or (b) could, if there were an unfavorable decision, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Deerfield Material Adverse Effect. Neither Deerfield nor any director or officer (in his or her capacity as such), is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim or violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty.

 

4.10.        Compliance with Applicable Laws. Deerfield is in compliance with all applicable Laws, including those relating to occupational health and safety, the environment, export controls, trade sanctions and embargoes, except for instances of noncompliance that, individually and in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Deerfield Material Adverse Effect. Deerfield has not received any written communication during the past two years from a Governmental Entity that alleges that Deerfield is not in compliance in any material respect with any applicable Law. Deerfield is in compliance with all effective requirements of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, that are applicable to it, except where such noncompliance could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Deerfield Material Adverse Effect.

4.12.        Title to Properties. Deerfield has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all of its properties and assets used in the conduct of its businesses. All such assets and properties, other than assets and properties in which Deerfield has leasehold interests, are free and clear of all Liens, except for Liens that, in the aggregate, do not and will not materially interfere with the ability of Deerfield to conduct business as currently conducted. Deerfield has complied in all material respects with the terms of all material leases to which it is a party and under which it is in occupancy, and all such leases are in full force and effect.

Except to the extent that information contained in any SEC Report has been revised or superseded by a later SEC Report, none of the SEC Reports contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Deerfield has established disclosure controls and procedures for Deerfield and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to Deerfield is made known to the officers by others within Deerfield. Deerfield's officers have evaluated the effectiveness of Deerfield's controls and procedures. Since September 30, 2009, there have been no significant changes in Deerfield's internal controls or, to Deerfield's knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect Deerfield's internal controls. The foregoing representations and warranties are subject to any deficiencies or defects identified in any letter from Deerfield's auditors, and shall further be qualified to the extent that any such deficiencies or defects shall not have resulted in any Deerfield Material Adverse Effect prior to the Closing.

 

4.18.        Solvency.
