(h)  The representations and warranties of the Company and Purchaser set forth herein shall be true and correct as of the date that the Company accepts this subscription.
 
2.3  Per Share Purchase Price Protection.  (a) If from the date hereof until the earlier to occur of (i) the third anniversary of the date hereof and (ii) the date that a particular Purchaser has sold or otherwise transferred (other than transfers to an Affiliate of such Purchaser) that number of shares of Common Stock equal to or greater than the number of Purchased Shares acquired by such Purchaser in connection with the Private Placement, the Company shall issue shares of Common Stock at, or Common Stock Equivalents entitling the holder thereof to acquire shares of Common Stock for, a price per share less than the Per Share Purchase Price (such lower issuance price being referred to herein as the “Discounted Purchase Price” and such iss uance being referred to herein as a “Dilutive Issuance”), the Company shall issue to such Purchaser that number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Make-Up Shares”) equal to: (a) the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser at the Closing divided by the Discounted Purchase Price less (b) the Purchased Shares acquired by such Purchaser in connection with the Private Placement.  The number of Make-Up Shares to which a particular Purchaser shall be entitled shall be subject to reduction as provided in Section 2.3(b) hereof.  If shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued for a consideration other than cash, the per share issuance price shall be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.  The Company shall not refuse to is sue a Purchaser the Make-Up Shares based on any claim that such Purchaser or anyone associated or affiliated with such Purchaser has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction by a court of competent jurisdiction restraining and or enjoining an issuance under this Section 2.4 shall have been sought and obtained.  Nothing herein shall limit a Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to deliver the Make-Up Shares and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.  Promptly after the date of closing of any Dilutive Issuance transaction, the Company shall give the Purchasers written notice thereof.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.4 and a Purchaser’s right to receive Make-Up Sha res hereunder shall not apply to, and a Dilutive Issuance shall not be deemed to have occurred as a result of, any Exempt Issuance.

(b) To the extent that a particular Purchaser has sold or otherwise transferred (other than transfers to an Affiliate of such Purchaser) any shares of Common Stock after the date hereof, the number of Make-Up Shares to which such Purchaser shall be entitled shall be reduced pro rata by the ratio of the shares of Common Stock so sold or transferred to the Purchased Shares.  For example, if (i) a particular Purchaser purchased one Unit and thereby acquired 240,000 Purchased Shares in connection with the Private Placement and then, before the date of a subsequent Dilutive Issuance, sold 80,000 shares of Common Stock, the number of Make-Up Shares would be reduced by one-third (1/3).  Applying that example to an instance in which the Discounted Purchase Price was $0.08 per share in connection with a Dilutive Issuance, t he total number of Make-Up Shares to which such Purchaser would be entitled would be calculated as follows:

[($24,000) ÷ ($0.08 per share)] – 240,000 shares = 60,000 shares, reduced by 1/3 to 40,000 shares.

(c) The Purchaser understands, acknowledges and agrees that the per share purchase price protection set forth in this Section 2.3 shall not be available until the Shareholder Approval is obtained.

ANTI MONEY LAUNDERING REQUIREMENTS


The USA PATRIOT Act
 
What is money laundering?
How big is the problem and why is it important?
 
The USA PATRIOT Act is designed to detect, deter, and punish terrorists in the United States and abroad.  The Act imposes new anti-money laundering requirements on brokerage firms and financial institutions.  Since April 24, 2002 all brokerage firms have been required to have new, comprehensive anti-money laundering programs.
 
To help you understand these efforts, we want to provide you with some information about money laundering and our steps to implement the USA PATRIOT Act.
 
Money laundering is the process of disguising illegally obtained money so that the funds appear to come from legitimate sources or activities.  Money laundering occurs in connection with a wide variety of crimes, including illegal arms sales, drug trafficking, robbery, fraud, racketeering, and terrorism.
 
The use of the U.S. financial system by criminals to facilitate terrorism or other crimes could well taint our financial markets.  According to the U.S. State Department, one recent estimate puts the amount of worldwide money laundering activity at $1 trillion a year.

What are we required to do to eliminate money laundering?
 
Under new rules required by the USA PATRIOT Act, our anti-money laundering program must designate a special compliance officer, set up employee training, conduct independent audits, and establish policies and procedures to detect and report suspicious transaction and ensure compliance with the new laws.
 
As part of our required program, we may ask you to provide various identification documents or other information.  Until you provide the information or documents we need, we may not be able to effect any transactions for you.

Neither Best Energy Services, Inc. nor Andrew Garrett, Inc. assume responsibility to you for determining if the investments you selected are suitable for you.

Preservation of Capital: An investment objective of Preservation of Capital indicates you seek to maintain the principal value of your investments and are interested in investments that have historically demonstrated a very low degree of risk of loss of principal value.  Some examples of typical investments might include money market funds and high quality, short-term fixed income products.

Income:  An investment objective of Income indicates you seek to generate from investments and are interested in investments that have historically demonstrated a low degree of risk of loss of principal value.  Some examples of typical investments might include high quality, short and medium-term fixed income products, short-term bond funds and covered call options.
