The Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.15 per share, and, in the case of the Notes to be issued to the subscribers for the first US$500,000 principal amount of Notes to be issued in this offering, if prepaid by the Company at any time the volume weighted average price of the common stock for the preceding ten trading days is less than $0.15 per share, the holders of the Notes in the aggregate principal amount of US$500,000 will be entitled to receive warrants to purchase one percent of the then outstanding shares of common stock exercisable for a period of three years at an exercise price of $0.15 per share, but which may be exercised on a cashless basis (the “Warrants”).

 

The Company’s common stock is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and is traded in the over the counter market and quoted through OTCQB under the symbol “ECGI.” Prior to November 14, 2014, the Company was a “shell company” as defined under Section 405 of the Securities Act. On November 14, 2014, the Company acquired ###-###-#### Ontario Inc., a Canadian company engaged in the development of medical products in a reverse acquisition, and on November 17, 2014 filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Super Form 8-K”) reporting such acquisition.

 

The Company hereby agrees to sell to the investor whose names appear on the signature page annexed hereto (the “Investor”) and the Investor hereby agrees to purchase from the Company a Note in the principal amount of US$500,000 (the “Subject Note”). The purchase price for the Note shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Subject Note (the “Purchase Price”). The Subject Note, together with the Warrants and any shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the Subject Note or exercise of the Warrants are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Securities”.

 

SECTION 1

The Investor, intending to be legally bound, hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase the Subject Note, in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

1.2 Purchase of Notes.

 

The Investor understands and acknowledges that the total purchase price to be remitted to the Company in payment for the Subject Note is 100% of the principal amount, that is, US$500,000. The Investor understands and acknowledges that this subscription is irrevocable. Investor will deliver the Purchase Price by either (i) wire transfer to an account designated by the Company or (ii) by check payable to the Company. The Company will deliver to the Investor the Subject Note against payment of the Purchase Price.

(a) Investment Purposes. The Investor is acquiring the Subject Note for his own account as principal, not as a nominee or agent, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or for, resale, distribution or fractionalization thereof in whole or in part in any transactions that would be in violation of the Securities Act or any state securities or "blue-sky" laws. No other person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in, and the undersigned 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, the Securities or any part of the Subject Note for which the undersigned is subscribing that would be in violation of the Securities Act or any state securities or "blue-sky" laws.

(c) Investment Experience. The Investor, or the Investor’s professional advisors, has such knowledge and experience in finance, securities, taxation, investments and other business matters as to evaluate investments of the kind described in this Subscription Agreement.

(e) No Reliance.
