About Axsun 

Axsun is a leading transportation service provider, offering North American
intermodal, trucking, regionalized cartage, warehousing and global freight
forwarding services. Axsun's other services include short and long-term
warehousing, inventory control, warehouse management, fulfilment and container
de-stuffing and stuffing.


Axsun has three divisions. 



1.  Axsun Logistics which ships door to door in North America, Alaska and
    Hawaii; 
2.  Axsun Transport & Distribution which handles primarily trucking,
    cartage, warehousing for finished goods, raw materials, food, paper,
    lumber, packaging and chemicals; and 
3.  Axsun Global which specializes in ocean and air freight forwarding to
    Asia, Europe and South America. 



Axsun is headquartered in St. Hubert, Quebec, and has additional Canadian

Industry Background

Axsun operates in the North American commercial freight transportation market.
This market includes trucking/highway (both for-hire and private carriers); rail
(including intermodal); water; and air. According to the American Trucking
Associations' ("ATA") United States freight transportation forecast, the market
totalled $694.2 billion in 2010 and is expected to grow to $1,151.6 billion in
2021, representing a 5.5% average annual growth rate. Axsun primarily operates
in the intermodal and trucking segments of this market. 


Intermodal

Intermodal freight transport involves the transportation of freight in an
intermodal container or vehicle, using multiple modes of transportation (rail,
ship, and truck), without any handling of the freight itself when changing
modes. Intermodal transportation is primarily used for long-haul shipments
(typically 750 miles or more) where rail has a significant cost advantage over
trucking. This cost advantage is estimated at 10% to 40%, depending on the
length of haul and rail ramp proximity. The ATA estimated the intermodal market
to be $11.1 billion, or approximately 1.6% of the United States commercial
freight transportation market, in 2010. Future growth in this segment is
expected to result from the ongoing conversion of shipments to intermodal,
primarily due to cost advantages as well as trucking capacity issues due to
various factors, including chronic driver shortages and high fuel prices. The
ATA projects, on average, intermodal volumes will grow 6.6% and revenue will
grow 12.2% per year between 2011 and 2016.


Trucking/Highway 

The trucking/highway segment of the commercial freight transportation market is
divided into the (full) truckload ("TL") and less-than-(full) truckload ("LTL")
sectors, each of which is highly fragmented. Trucking enjoys an excellent
reputation among shippers for its history of on-time delivery, flexibility,
shorter transit times and GPS positioning. In short-haul routes, trucking
represents the least expensive mode of transportation. As a result, about 70% of
all truckload hauls are 750 miles or less. On longer hauls, trucking is often at
a cost disadvantage versus other modes of transportation, such as rail, due to
capacity limitations and high variable costs related to fuel and labour. 


Logistics

According to Armstrong & Associates, North American third-party logistics
service providers represented approximately $127.3 billion of shippers'
expenditures in 2010, an 18.9% increase over 2009, due to the economic rebound
from the Great Recession. This growth can be attributed to outsourcing of
logistics functions by shippers due to increasing supply chain complexity
through globalization and lean inventory techniques. Axsun believes this
outsourcing trend will continue as more shippers recognize the cost benefits of
outsourcing supply chain activities, increase their global trade and sourcing,
need more time-definite delivery of goods as well as automated shipment
tracking, shipment optimization and data processing that require sophisticated
information technology systems.


Axsun Corporate History and Structure 

Axsun was recently amalgamated under the Canada Business Corporations Act
("CBCA") on August 1, 2011. The head and registered office of Axsun is located
at 4900 Armand Frappier, St-Hubert, Quebec J3Z 1G5. Axsun has no subsidiaries.


Axsun has been recently reorganized under the CBCA and will have up to
29,000,000 common shares (the "Axsun Common Shares") issued and outstanding,
with the final number to be determined. Axsun will have no stock options,
warrants, anti-dilution or other rights to purchase Axsun Common Shares issued
or outstanding. We understand there are no shares of any other classes of Axsun
issued and outstanding. The Letter Agreement allows however the shareholders of
Axsun to carry out certain transactions prior to the Business Combination which
may result in a reorganization of Axsun capital stock and other classes of
shares to be issued which would be exchanged into Newco common Shares pursuant
to the Business Combination.


Axsun's three predecessor corporations, Axsun Logistics Inc., Axsun Global Inc.
and Axsun Transport & Distribution Inc. amalgamated on August 1, 2011 pursuant
to the Canada Business Corporations Act to form Axsun Inc.


The principal shareholders of Axsun are Steve Ramescu of Montreal, Quebec,
indirectly through Stavstan Inc. (a private company formed under the federal
laws of Canada) and Francis Longpre, of Montreal, Quebec; who own 64.4%, and
15.7%, respectively.

Summary of the Proposed Qualifying Business Combination

Pursuant to the arm's length Letter Agreement, and subject to the terms and
conditions thereof, Sophia and Axsun have agreed to complete the Business
Combination.


Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the parties have agreed to use their
"commercially reasonable efforts" to cause Axsun to complete the Axsun Private
Placement of up to 7,500,000 units of Axsun (the "Axsun Units") at a price of
$1.00 per unit (the "Offering Price") for gross proceeds of a minimum of
$4,500,000 and a maximum of $7,500,000. Each Axsun Unit shall consist of one
Axsun Common Share and one-half of one share purchase warrant of Axsun
exercisable to purchase one Axsun Common Share at a price of $1.25 per share for
five (5) years (the "Axsun Warrants").


Axsun has engaged Avenue Capital Markets CPVC Inc. to act as agent and financial
advisor (the "Agent") on a "commercially reasonable efforts" basis for the Axsun
Private Placement and in connection therewith intends to pay a cash commission
of up to 9% (or 4.5% of the number of Units sold to purchasers identified by
Axsun). The Agents will also be granted agent's options (the "Axsun Agent's
Options") to purchase up to 9% of the number of Axsun Units sold under the Axsun
Private Placement (or 4.5% of the number of Units sold to purchasers identified
by Axsun), with each Axsun Agent's Option entitling the holder to purchase one
Axsun Unit at the Offering Price per share for a period of 24 months from the
closing of the Axsun Private Placement.


Axsun intends to use the net proceeds of the Axsun Private Placement for the
purchase of refrigerated units and establishment of offices in the United
States, as well as for general corporate purposes, working capital and
transaction costs to complete the Business Combination.
