WITNESSETH:

 

WHEREAS, the Company is conducting a private offering (the “Offering”) consisting of up to 20,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder; and

 

WHEREAS, the Subscriber desires to purchase that number of Shares set forth on the signature page hereof on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual representations and covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

 

I.SUBSCRIPTION FOR SHARES AND REPRESENTATIONS BY SUBSCRIBER

 

1.1           Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Subscriber hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company such number of Shares, and the Company agrees to sell to the Subscriber as is set forth on the signature page hereof, at a per share price equal to $0.20 per Share. The purchase price is payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds or check payable to the Company to the Company pursuant to the wire instructions set forth on Schedule 1.1.

 

1.2           The Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of the Shares involves a high degree of risk including, but not limited to, the following: (a) the Company has limited operating history and requires substantial funds in addition to the proceeds of the Offering; (b) an investment in the Company is highly speculative, and only investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the Company and the Shares; (c) the Subscriber may not be able to liquidate its investment; (d) transferability of the Shares is extremely limited and no sales of restricted stock may be made until the Company is current in its filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); (e) in the event of a disposition, the Subscriber could sustain the loss of its entire investment; (f) the Company has not paid any dividends since its inception and does not anticipate paying any dividends; (g) the Company may issue additional securities in the future which have rights and preferences that are senior to those of the Common Stock and (h) the Company is not presently current in its filings under the Exchange Act. Without limiting the generality of the representations set forth in Section 1.5 below, the Subscriber represents that the Subscriber has carefully reviewed the risk factors described in the Company's filings made under the Exchange Act and the risk factors, which have been separately delivered to the Subscriber by the Company.

1.4           The Subscriber hereby acknowledges and represents that (a) the Subscriber has knowledge and experience in business and financial matters, prior investment experience, including investment in securities that are non-listed, unregistered and/or not traded on a national securities exchange nor on the NASDAQ, or the Subscriber has employed the services of a “purchaser representative” (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D), attorney and/or accountant to read all of the documents furnished or made available by the Company both to the Subscriber and to all other prospective investors in the Shares to evaluate the merits and risks of such an investment on the Subscriber’s behalf; (b) the Subscriber recognizes the highly speculative nature of this investment; and (c) the Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk that the Subscriber hereby assumes.

 

1.5           The Subscriber hereby acknowledges receipt and careful review of this Agreement, including all exhibits thereto, and any documents which may have been made available upon request as reflected therein (collectively referred to as the “Offering Materials”) and hereby represents that the Subscriber has been furnished by the Company during the course of the Offering with all information regarding the Company, the terms and conditions of the Offering and any additional information that the Subscriber has requested or desired to know, and has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from duly authorized officers or other representatives of the Company concerning the Company and the terms and conditions of the Offering.

 

1.6           (a)          In making the decision to invest in the Shares the Subscriber has relied solely upon the information provided by the Company in the Offering Materials. To the extent necessary, the Subscriber has retained, at its own expense, and relied upon appropriate professional advice regarding the investment, tax and legal merits and consequences of this Agreement and the purchase of the Shares hereunder.
