By executing this Agreement and returning it to the Company, you further agree that your investment is being made entirely on the terms and conditions stated herein and in the documents attached hereto. You understand that this Subscription Agreement is not binding until the Company accepts it in writing.

Caveat: Certain statements contained herein and included in other documents which have been given to you (including the Company’s reports filed pursuant to the requirements of the 1934 Act) using the terms “may,” “expects to” and other terms denoting future possibilities, are forward-looking statements. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of these statements as they are subject to a variety of risks, which are beyond our ability to predict or control. These risks may cause actual results to differ materially from the projections or estimates given to you. These risks include, but are not limited to, the possibility that the described operations or other activities will not be completed on economic terms, if at all. Our contemplated operations are attendant with high risk. There can be no assurance that we will succeed in operating our contemplated business, and it is important that each person considering and investment pursuant to this Subscription Agreement understands the significant risks, which accompany the proposed conduct of our future operations.

In connection with your proposed purchase of the Series B Stock, you further represent as follows:

1.    You understand that an investment in the Series B Stock is one of significant risk, and there can be no assurance that the Series B Stock, or the common stock into which it is convertible, will ever be valuable, or that the Company will ever be able to actually receive the support and favorable vote of a majority of its shareholders to authorize the increase of its common stock. You understand that currently the Company has no available common stock and that it has reached the limits of its currently authorized common stock. You further understand that the Company will make its best efforts to seek and receive the approval of a majority of its shareholders for an increase in its authorized common stock sufficient to allow you to convert your Series B Stock into common stock of the Company, but that the Company cannot guarantee such an outcome. If the Company is unable to secure the approval of a majority of its shareholders for an increase in its authorized stock, then you will remain the holder of Series B Stock only. The risks associated with an investment of the Series B Stock are those set out in this paragraph, as well as those that are set forth in the Company’s 1934 Act Reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and available on its EDGAR electronic filing service, or also available through the Company website, www.geii.com, or have been made available to you from the Company upon request.

Rule 215. Accredited Investor

The term “accredited investor” as used in section 2(15)(ii) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall include the following persons:

(a) Any savings and loan association or other institution specified in section 3(a)(5)(A) of the Act whether acting in its individual or fiduciary capacity; any broker or dealer registered pursuant to section 15 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934; any plan established and maintained by a state, its political subdivisions, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or its political subdivisions, for the benefit of its employees, if such plan has total assets in excess of $5,000,000; any employee benefit plan within the meaning of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, if the investment decision is made by a plan fiduciary, as defined in section 3(21) of such Act, which is a savings and loan association, or if the employee benefit plan has total assets in excess of $5,000,000 or, if a self-directed plan, with investment decisions made solely by persons that are accredited investors;

(b) Any private business development company as defined in section 202(a)(22) of the Investment Advisors Act of 1940;

(c) Any organization described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, corporation, Massachusetts or similar business trust, or partnership, not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the securities offered, with total assets in excess of $5,000,000;

(d) Any director, executive officer, or general partner of the issuer of the securities being offered or sold, or any director, executive officer, or general partner of a general partner of that issuer;

(e) Any natural person whose individual net worth, or joint net worth with that person’s spouse, at the time of his purchase exceeds $1,000,000;

(f) Any natural person who had an individual income in excess of $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with that person’s spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of those years and has a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current year;

Marketable securities owned by the Investor included in the calculation of net worth must be based on a recent market value, with appropriate discounts for lack of marketability if the securities represent greater than a 10% interest in the issuer, if the securities are “restricted shares” or subject to any contractual or other restriction, if the securities are thinly traded, or for other appropriate reasons.

Any valuation of any other asset with a value in excess of $100,000 must be based on an independent valuation or appraisal.
 
Guidelines for Calculating Net Income:

For the purposes of determining whether an Investor is an “accredited investor,” net income must be calculated based on its adjusted gross income as reported to the Internal Revenue Service (for U.S. taxpayers) or other similar measure (for non-U.S. taxpayers).

Substantiation of Net Worth and Net Income:

Golden Eagle International, Inc. (the “Company”) is relying on the accuracy of each Investor’s representations and warranties with respect to its status as an accredited investor. The Company is aware that personal financial matters are private and confidential, and will endeavor to maintain all information contained in the subscription agreement or otherwise obtained confidential. In case of any question, however, the Company may request substantiation of the Investor’s status by discussing the issue with the Investor’s banker, attorney, accountant, or investment advisor. If questions develop, the Company will contact the Investor before seeking any independent confirmation.
