This SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of March 24, 2010, by and among GENESIS SOLAR CORPORATION, a Colorado corporation formerly known as Cogenco International, Inc., whose address is 4600 South Ulster Street, Suite 800, Denver, CO 80237 (“GSC” or the “Company”) and VITAL SOURCE, S.A., whose address is Via San Salvatore 13, P.O. Box 616, CH 6902, Paradiso, Switzerland, an entity organized under the laws of Switzerland (“Purchaser’), for the purchase by Purchaser of 3,500,000 shares of GSC common stock (the “Purchased Shares”) as described below and subject to adjustment as provided herein.

RECITALS

A.           GSC is currently a development stage company, has only limited cash resources, a significant negative working capital deficit, and is currently not actively involved in business operations although it is party to an agreement to acquire certain subsidiaries from GENESIS ENERGY INVESTMENTS PLC, an Hungarian entity operating as a public company whose common stock is traded on the Budapest Stock Exchange (“Seller”).  Such agreement is that certain Stock Purchase Agreement (“original Agreement”) made as of July 24, 2009, by and between GSC and Seller, as the Agreement was amended by Amendment No. 1 dated November 24, 2009 and Amendment No. 2 dated January 19, 2010.  The parties have not timely completed their obligations under the original Agreement, as amended (the “Amended Agreement”) and are negotiating amendments to the Amended Agreement which will reflect the current situation.

B.           Purchaser is an investor with experience investing in, and/or working with, development stage companies such as the Company, has been provided all information about the Company it and its advisors have sought (including being afforded the opportunity to ask and receive answers from the Company and its management about the Company’s current and/or contemplated business activities), and is able to bear the risk of losing all of his or its investments in the Purchased Shares.

C.           GSC and Purchaser desire to enter into this agreement pursuant to which Purchaser will purchase from GSC, and GSC will sell to Purchaser, the restricted common stock described herein.

D.           Purchaser understands that, should GSC common stock be registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Purchaser, as the holder of greater than 5% of the outstanding shares, will be obligated to file certain reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including reports on Schedule 13D or 13G, as applicable), and reports pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Share Purchase Agreement

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
 
ARTICLE I 
 
PURCHASE AND SALE OF COMMON SHARES
 
 
1.1    Purchase and Sale of Common Shares.  Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, GSC agrees to issue and sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to subscribe for and take up, at the Closing Date, the Purchased Shares.
 
1.2    Purchase Price.  By no later than June 30, 2010 (the “Closing Date”), in a single payment Purchaser shall pay GSC $10.00 (US currency) per share for the Purchased Shares for a total purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) of $35,000,000 (US).  The Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price to GSC in accordance with wiring instructions provided to Purchaser.
 
1.3    Use of Proceeds.  GSC intends to use the proceeds from the funds to be received approximately as follows:
 
(a)           $33,745,000 US will be converted into (or retained in) Euro currency amounting to €25,000,000 for the purchase of shares of common stock of Genesis Solar España, S.L. (“GSE,” the “GSE Shares”).
 
(b)           $1,750,000 US to Genesis Capital Management Limited (“GCM,” an entity affiliated with GSC) as a finder’s fee pursuant to an agreement between GSC and GCM.  To the extent that the Company’s working capital and other assets are insufficient to pay the entire finder’s fee to GCM (inasmuch as the total of the finder’s fee and the amount to be paid for the GSE Shares exceeds the contemplated investment), GCM has agreed to allow the Company to retain that portion of the finder’s fee necessary to allow the Company to meet its obligations.  The portion retained will still be due and owing to GCM.
 
(c)           The Company has insufficient funds on hand to complete its due diligence or the contemplated transactions.  Inasmuch as all of the proceeds from the Purchaser will be used in connection with the finder’s fee and the transaction, the Company will have to raise additional funds for general and administrative expenditures and for working capital well prior to the date of the Purchaser’s investment, and the Company intends to do so as described in paragraph 1.6 below.
 
1.4    Related Party Transactions.  By purchasing GSC common stock, the Purchaser represents that it has discussed the existence and status of certain related party transactions that were not negotiated at arms’-length, as well as the investment itself and the contemplated use of funds with GSC and its controlling and other affiliated persons (including GCM, GSE, Seller, and GIF), and further acknowledges and approves of the use of proceeds of the Purchaser’s investment.
 
 
2
Share Purchase Agreement

 
 
(a)           The Purchaser understands that the Company’s largest shareholder, Genesis Investment Funds Limited (“GIF”), is controlled by GCM, and any transaction involving GCM or any other affiliate of GCM (including Seller) can be considered to be a related party transaction and not negotiated at arms’-length.
 
(b)           GCM is indebted to GSC for $118,808 as of December 31, 2009, although GCM has made payments to GSC on that note, and the next payment of $25,000 is due on or before March 31, 2010.
 
(c)           GSC cannot offer any assurance that any funds made available to it through the Purchaser’s investment will be sufficient to allow GSC to complete its business plan which involves (among other things) acquiring the GSE Shares and acquiring all of the other outstanding shares of GSE common stock from Seller (Genesis Energy Investments Plc. as defined above), all of which are related party transactions.
 
(d)           The Purchaser and GSC each acknowledge that before completing the acquisition of the GSE Shares, whether from Seller or another entity, GSC must satisfactorily complete a significant amount of due diligence, but that this due diligence will be with respect to related parties.  If the due diligence proves unacceptable, the Company may postpone the acquisition of the GSE Shares or terminate its obligation to do so.
 
1.5    Closing.
 
(a)           Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Articles IV and V, the subscription for and issuance of the Purchased Shares shall take place at GSC’s principal offices (or as GSC may otherwise designate), or at such other time and place as the parties shall agree on the Closing Date (the “Closing”).
 
 (b)           Delivery.  On receipt of payment of the Purchase Price, GSC will prepare a stock certificate in the name of Purchaser for the Purchased Shares after receipt of good funds therefor or as otherwise agreed between the parties.
 
1.6    Other Offerings.  Purchaser acknowledges that prior to the execution of this Agreement the Company has negotiated with a third party for the offer and sale its common stock at a price per share that is significantly less than the price per share of the Purchased Shares (the “Other Shares”), and the Company currently may complete the sale and issuance of the Other Shares before the Closing Date.   Purchaser understands that the Company may sell up to 1,000,000 Other Shares for $5.00 per share, more or less.
