NOTICE
Any sale in Florida made pursuant to Florida Statute § 517.061 pertaining to transactions exempt from registration is voidable by the purchaser in such sale within three (3) days after the first tender of consideration is made by such purchaser to the issuer, an agent of the issuer, or an escrow agent.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have informed the undersigned (the “Purchaser”) that CAPITAL EQUITY FINANCE, INC, a Florida corporation that has no assets and no business other than to seek a merger with a private operating business (the “Company” or “you”), wishes to raise a maximum of Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000) to pay for administrative, accounting, and legal expenses from various accredited investors by selling the Company’s Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the “Shares”), at a price of Two and One-Half Cents ($0.025) per Share.
I understand that you will rely on the following information to confirm that I am an “Accredited Investor”, as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and that I am qualified to be a Purchaser.
In connection with and as consideration for the receipt of ____________ Shares for a total price of $______________ by the undersigned Purchaser, the Purchaser hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees as set forth below.
1. Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Shares are being acquired for investment purposes only, for the Purchaser's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the Shares or any portion thereof. Further, the Purchaser does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to all or any portion of the Shares.
2. No Securities Act Registration. The Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption or specific exemptions from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depend upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Purchaser's investment intent as expressed herein.

3. Restricted Securities. The Purchaser acknowledges that, because the Shares have been issued to a founder of, or early investor in, a shell company or blank check company, the Shares must be held by the Purchaser indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act, or unless the federal securities laws are amended to reduce applicable holding periods and/or to eliminate founder securities resale restrictions. Therefore, the provision of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act that permits the limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions is not available for the resale of the Shares under current law.
4. No Market for Shares. The Purchaser is fully aware that there is no public market where the Shares may be resold, that the Shares are illiquid, and that the Purchaser must hold the Shares indefinitely.
5. No Representations by the Company. The Purchaser represents to the Company that the Company has not made any representations or promises, material or otherwise, concerning the Company, its business model, the target of any proposed acquisition, the Company’s prospects for a merger, its financial condition, or the backgrounds of any individual involved in the Company or in selling the Shares, as an inducement to purchase the Shares.
6. Information. The Purchaser is aware that all information about the Company is either set forth in this Investment Letter or in the Company’s Form 10-SB, as amended, filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) at www.sec.gov (by following the link to “Filing and Forms (EDGAR),” then “Search for Company Filings”, then “Companies & Other Filers” and then entering the words “Capital Equity Finance”), and in other disclosure documents filed by the Company with the SEC from time to time.
7. Accredited and Sophisticated Investor. The Purchaser represents and warrants that: (a) either alone or with the Purchaser's professional advisor or advisors, he or she has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of acquiring the Shares, (c) is able to bear the economic risk of the investment in the Shares, including a complete loss of the investment, and (c) (a) is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the Securities and Exchange Commission; and, because Purchaser:
