dated February 2, 2021 (the “HotPlay Exchange Agreement”) pursuant to which the HotPlay Stockholders exchanged all the shares of HotPlay Enterprise Limited (“HotPlay”) for newly issued shares of the Issuer (the “HotPlay Share
Exchange”).
The parties consummated the HotPlay Share Exchange on June 30, 2021. The Issuer issued an aggregate of 52,000,000 shares of common stock (on a pre-split basis) to the HotPlay Stockholders on a pro rata basis

(hereinafter referred to as "Epitome").
WHEREAS:
A. |

Dollars) worth of common shares in the capital of Axion Ventures Inc. owned by Cern One;
|
C. |
Later in 2020, Cern One and Monaker Group Inc. ("Monaker"), a publicly traded company listed on the US NASDAQ Exchange have executed a Definitive Agreement dated July 23rd, 2020 which in
part allows Cern One to exchange shares of Axion Ventures Inc.'s stock for shares of Monaker's Stock ("The Merger"); and

shall work with the best reasonable efforts to transfer the Monaker Shares to Epitome as soon as possible. The Delivery Date can be adjusted upon further written notice from Epitome.
Completion of Obligations
It shall be considered that both Parties have completed all their obligations toward one another per this Agreement once Cern One successfully delivers 439,966 Monaker Shares to Epitome for the investment of USD
200,000 (Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) on June 30th, 2020 and USD 250,000 (Two Hundred Fifty Thousand United States Dollars) on July 30th, 2020, totaling USD 450,000 (Four Hundred Fifty Thousand United States

Upon successfully delivering 439,966 Monaker Shares, there shall be no further obligation on Cern One's part to deliver any other payable to Epitome whether in cash or in kind.
Additional Representations and Warranties
Cern One represents and warrants to Epitome that Cern One is in the good standing and position, free and clear of all liens, security interests, encumbrances or adverse claims, no dispute, right of setoff, counterclaim
or defence exists, and has no defaults or fails, including not being in or near a position of bankruptcy, insolvency, relief of debtors, specific performance, junctive relief and other equitable remedies, pending or otherwise, following the NASDAQ
Exchange Regulations.
Cern One warrants that if Cern One fails or defaults due to Cern One's Representations and Warranties, Cern One and its stakeholders, agents and representatives will be liable for the amount already purchased and will
return the sum of USD 450,000 (Four Hundred Fifty Thousand United States Dollars) within fifteen (15) days from the date such breach, which can be adjusted upon further written notice from Epitome.
Entire Agreement
This SHARE REPLACEMENT AGREEMENT shall be an integral part of the previously executed SHARE TRANSFER AGREEMENT and AMENDMENT OF SHARE TRANSFER AGREEMENT dated November 15th, 2019 and May 15th,
2020 respectively. In the event of any conflict, this SHARE REPLACEMENT AGREEMENT shall prevail. Any issues not agreed hereunder shall be executed according to the SHARE TRANSFER AGREEMENT and the AMENDMENT OF SHARE TRANSFER AGREEMENT signed before.
