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 USD ($30,000 USD) 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 USD ($0.025 USD) per Share.

I, the Purchaser, 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.

I, the Purchaser, also understand that this Agreement is entered into solely upon the premise that the purchase and sale of the Shares and any resale thereof will be made in compliance with the exemption from registration afforded by the provisions of Regulation S (“Regulation S”) as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), unless the resale thereof is made pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom.

In connection with and as consideration for the receipt of ____________ Shares for a total price of $______________ USD 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.           Non-Affiliate Status; Common Stock Ownership. Purchaser represents and warrants that it is neither an affiliate nor an associate (as such terms are defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of the Company or of any other Purchaser and is not acting in association or concert with any other Purchaser in regard to its purchase of the Shares or otherwise in regard to the Company. Such Purchaser's investment in the Shares is not for the purpose of acquiring, directly or indirectly, control of, and it has no intent to acquire or exercise control of, the Company or to influence the decisions or policies of the Company's Board of Directors.

3.           Hedging.  Purchaser represents and warrants that for offers and sales of the Shares, that it will not engage in hedging transactions with regard to such securities prior to the expiration of one (1) year from the end of the distribution period unless in compliance with the Securities Act.
 
4.           Offshore Transaction. Purchaser represents and warrants that:
 
a.           It is not a citizen or resident of the United States of America, or it is a U.S. person who purchased securities in a transaction that did not require registration under the Securities Act;
 
b.           It is not acquiring the securities for the account or benefit of any U.S. person; and
 
c.           At the time the purchase order for the Shares is originated by the Purchaser, the Purchaser was outside of the United States of America, the purchase by the Purchaser having occurred in the Country of _______________ and in the City of __________ on or about ____________________, 2008.
 
5.           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.

6.           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.

7.           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.

8.           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.

9.           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.
