and Plan of Acquisition
On
August 23, 2024, BioQuest Corp. a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition (the

exchange 20,000,000 shares of restricted common stock, 85,000 Series A Preferred Shares for 100% of BOTI and BOTI will pay $175,000 of
BQST’s outstanding debts. The Series A Preferred Shares shall be convertible into common stock at a ratio of 1000:1, have a 4.99%
equity conversion blocker and have no voting right. This Agreement also requires BOTI to file a 15c2-11 within 90 days of the execution
of the Agreement and gives the major shareholders as listed on Exhibit A to the Agreement anti-dilution protection to maintain their
10% ownership rights and also states that BQST will not do a reverse split in the 18 months after signing the Agreement, except in the
case of an uplisting to the NASDAQ; wherein, there will be a 5:1 reverse split maximum, or if approved by the major shareholders as listed
on Exhibit A to the Agreement.
The
vision of BioQuest is to acquire BotMakers and its Conversational Artificial Intelligence (“AI”). BotMakers, currently provides
its customers with an AI platform that utilizes voice calling AI, text messaging and chatbots. At this time, there are no products of
BotMakers that will utilize MaxTrades AI technology that are aspirational or still in development. All BotMakers products and services
are fully functional and are currently selling to retail customers. Any future updates to the MaxTrades technology will be based on future
data gathered through customer usage and feedback. BotMakers has no current plans to enhance the MaxTrades technology used in conversational
Al products or chatbots. The MaxTrades technology is a series of automated workflows that can plug in to any Customer Relationship Management
system that allows webhooks to send data to and from those systems.
The
Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, operating covenants and termination rights.

Liquidation Preference. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary,

the Distribution date shall be deemed to be the date such transaction closes.
SECTION
5. CONVERSION.
The
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the “Conversion Rights”):
| (a) | Right
to Convert. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option
of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional
consideration by the holder thereof, into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares
of Common Stock (whether whole or fractional) at a conversion ratio of 1,000 shares of Common
Stock for each 1 share of Series A Preferred Stock (1,000:1). |
| | |
| (b) | Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Series
A Preferred Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be
entitled, the Corporation shall round the number of shares issued to the nearest whole number.
Whether or not fractional shares would be issuable upon such conversion shall be determined
on the basis of the total number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock the holder is at the
time converting into Common Stock and the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon such conversion. |
| | |
| (c) | Mechanics
of Conversion. |
| i. | Notice
of Conversion. In order for a holder of Series A Preferred Stock to voluntarily convert
shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, such holder shall surrender
the certificate or certificates for such shares of Series A Preferred Stock (or, if such
registered holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost
certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify
the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of
the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate), at the office of the transfer
agent for the Series A Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Corporation if
the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), together with written notice that such
holder elects to convert all or any number of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock
represented by such certificate or certificates and, if applicable, any event on which such
conversion is contingent. Such notice shall state such holder’s name or the names of
the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for shares of Common
Stock to be issued. If required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion
shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form
satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or his, her or its
attorney duly authorized in writing. The close of business on the date of receipt by the
transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent)
of such certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) and notice shall be the
time of conversion (the “Conversion Time”), and the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the shares represented by such certificate shall be deemed to be outstanding
of record as of such date. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion
Time, issue and deliver to such holder of Series A Preferred Stock, a certificate or certificates
for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion in accordance
with the provisions hereof and a certificate for the number (if any) of the shares of Series
A Preferred Stock represented by the surrendered certificate that were not converted into
Common Stock. |
| ii. | Redemption
by the Corporation. On or after the 3rd anniversary of the issuance of shares of Series
A Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall have the option to redeem the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock either i) for shares of common stock at the Conversion Price; or ii) for
cash at a price equal to the sum of the Conversion Price. The Corporation shall provide any
holder of Series A Preferred Stock with 3 days written notice prior to any such redemption. |
| | |
| iii. | Reservation
of Shares. The Corporation shall at all times when the Series A Preferred Stock shall
be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued capital stock,
for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, such number
of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to
effect the conversion of all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock; and if at any time the
number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect
the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation
shall take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes,
including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite shareholder
approval of any necessary amendment to the Articles of Incorporation. Before taking any action
which would cause an adjustment reducing the Series A Conversion Price below the then par
value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock,
the Corporation will take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel,
be necessary in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock at such adjusted Series A Conversion Price. |
| | |
| iv. | Effect
of Conversion. All shares of Series A Preferred Stock which shall have been surrendered
for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights
with respect to such shares shall immediately cease and terminate at the Conversion Time,
except only the right of the holders thereof to receive shares of Common Stock in exchange
therefor, to receive payment in lieu of any fraction of a share otherwise issuable upon such
conversion as provided in Section 6 and to receive payment of any dividends declared but
unpaid thereon. Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted shall be retired and
cancelled and may not be reissued as shares of such series, and the Corporation may thereafter
take such appropriate action (without the need for shareholder action) as may be necessary
to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock accordingly. |
| | |
| v. | Taxes.
The Corporation shall pay any and all issue and other similar taxes that may be payable in
respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6. The Corporation shall not, however,
be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that in which the shares
of Series A Preferred Stock so converted were registered, and no such issuance or delivery
shall be made unless and until the person or entity requesting such issuance has paid to
the Corporation the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the
Corporation, that such tax has been paid. |
| (d) | Adjustments
to Series A Preferred. |
| i. | Adjustment
for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution. If the Common Stock issuable on the
conversion of Series A Preferred Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number
of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification,
or otherwise, then and in each such event the holder of each share of Series A Preferred
Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such share into the kind and amount of shares
of stock and other securities and property receivable on such reorganization, reclassification
or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares
of Series A Preferred Stock might have been converted immediately before such reorganization,
reclassification, or change. |
| | |
| ii. | Sales,
Reorganizations, Mergers or Consolidations. In case of any consolidation or merger of
the Corporation with or into another entity, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all
or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation to another person or the sale, transfer
or other disposition of securities of the Corporation representing 50% or more of the combined
voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Corporation, each share of Series
A Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock
or other securities or property that a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of
the Corporation deliverable on conversion of Series A Preferred Stock would have been entitled
on such consolidation, merger or sale on the same basis as set forth herein. |
| (e) | Conversion
Limitations. In no event shall the Holder, or any future Holder, be entitled to convert
any portion of the Series A Preferred in excess of that portion of the Series A Preferred
upon conversion of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed
beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Series A Preferred
or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Company subject to
a limitation on conversion of exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and
(2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the portion of the
Series A Preferred with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made,
would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99%
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company at any given time. For the purposes
of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance
with Section 13(d) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 13d-3 thereunder. |
SECTION
6. VOTING. Except as otherwise provided herein or as otherwise required by law, the Series A Preferred shall have no voting rights.
However, as long as any shares of Series A Preferred are outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the Holders
of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights
given to the Series A Preferred, (b) amend its certificate of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects
any rights of the Holders, (c) increase the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred, or (d) enter into any agreement with respect
to any of the foregoing.
SECTION
7. REDEMPTION. The Series A Preferred Stock shall have no redemption rights.
SECTION
8. PROTECTIVE PROVISIONS. So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, this Company shall not without first
obtaining the approval (by written consent, as provided by law or otherwise) of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares
of Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a class:
(a) Increase
or decrease the total number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock;
(b) Effect
an exchange, reclassification, or cancellation of all or a part of the Series A Preferred Stock, but excluding a stock split or reverse
stock split of the Company’s Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock, which such reverse split of the Company’s Common Stock
reducing the conversion ratio of the Series A Preferred Stock proportionately (i.e. if the Company does a 10:1 reverse split the conversion
ratio of the Series A Preferred Stock would be reduced from 1,000:1 to 100:1);
(c) Effect
an exchange, or create a right of exchange, of all or part of the shares of another class of shares or other securities into shares of
Series A Preferred Stock; or
(d) Alter
or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so as to affect adversely the shares of such
series, including the rights set forth in this Designation.
For
clarification, issuances of additional authorized shares of Series A Preferred under the terms herein shall not require the authorization
or approval of the existing shareholders of Series A Preferred Stock.
PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Company may, by any means authorized by law and without any vote of the Holders of shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock, make technical, corrective, administrative or similar changes in this Statement of Designations that do not, individually or in
the aggregate, adversely affect the rights or preferences of the Holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company may also
designate and issue additional series of preferred stock from time to time in the sole discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors,
which such rights, privileges, preferences and limitations shall be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in its sole
discretion, and which designations and issuances shall not require the approval of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock.
SECTION
9. PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock and holders of Common Stock shall not be entitled to any preemptive,
subscription or similar rights in respect to any securities of the Company, except as specifically set forth herein or in any other document
agreed to by the Company.
SECTION
10. REPORTS. The Company shall mail to all holders of Series A Preferred Stock those reports, proxy statements and other materials
that it mails to all of its holders of Common Stock.
SECTION
11. NOTICES. In addition to any other means of notice provided by law or in the Company’s Bylaws, any notice required by
the provisions of this Designation to be given to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be deemed given if deposited in the United
States mail, postage prepaid, and addressed to each Holder of record at such Holder’s address appearing on the books of the Company.
SECTION
12. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) The
headings of the various sections and subsections of this Certificate of Designation are for convenience of reference only and shall not
affect the interpretation of any of the provisions of this Certificate of Designation.
(b) Whenever
possible, each provision of this Certificate of Designation shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law and public policy. If any provision set forth herein is held to be invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of
any rule of law or public policy, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating
or otherwise adversely affecting the remaining provisions of this Certificate of Designation. No provision herein set forth shall be
deemed dependent upon any other provision unless so expressed herein. If a court of competent jurisdiction should determine that a provision
of this Certificate of Designation would be valid or enforceable if a period of time were extended or shortened, then such court may
make such change as shall be necessary to render the provision in question effective and valid under applicable law.
(c) The
Company will provide to the Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock all communications sent by the Company to the holders of the Common
Stock.
(d) Except
as may otherwise be required by law, the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any powers, designations, preferences
or other special rights, other than those specifically set forth in this Certificate of Designations.
(e) Shares
of Common Stock converted into Series A Preferred Stock shall be retired and canceled and shall have the status of authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock of the Company undesignated and may with any and all other authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock of the
Company be designated or re-designated and issued or reissued.
(f) Notwithstanding
the above terms and conditions of this Designation, the Liquidation Preference and the dollar amounts and share numbers set forth herein
shall be subject to adjustment, as appropriate, whenever there shall occur a stock split, stock dividend, combination, reclassification
or other similar event involving shares of the Series A Preferred Stock. Such adjustments shall be made in such manner and at such time
as the Board of Directors in good faith determines to be equitable in the circumstances, any such determination to be evidenced in a
resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors. Upon any such equitable adjustment, the Company shall promptly deliver to each Holder
a notice describing in reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment and the method of calculation thereof and specifying the
increased or decreased Liquidation Preference following such adjustment.
(g) With
respect to any notice to a Holder required to be provided hereunder, such notice shall be mailed to the registered address of such Holder,
and neither failure to mail such notice, nor any defect therein or in the mailing thereof, to any particular Holder shall affect the
sufficiency of the notice or the validity of the proceedings referred to in such notice with respect to the other Holders or affect the
legality or validity of any redemption, distribution, rights, warrant, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer,
dissolution, liquidation, winding-up or other action, or the vote upon any action with respect to which the Holders are entitled to vote.
All notice periods referred to herein shall commence on the date of the mailing of the applicable notice. Any notice which was mailed
in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given whether or not the Holder receives the notice.
