3.1           Subscription for Units
 
The Subscriber hereby confirms its irrevocable subscription for and offer to purchase the Subscribed Units from the Corporation, and hereby tenders the Subscription Amount, which, upon acceptance by the Corporation, will constitute a binding agreement of the Subscriber with the Corporation to purchase from the Corporation, and, on the part of the Corporation, to sell to the Subscriber, the Subscribed Units, on and subject to the terms and conditions set out in this Subscription Agreement, for the Subscription Amount which is payable as described in Article 4 hereto.
 
3.2           Acceptance and Rejection of Subscription by the Corporation
 
The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding Section 3.1 above, the Corporation reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to reject this subscription for Units, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the Closing Time. If this subscription is rejected in whole, any cheques or other forms of payment delivered on account of the Subscription Amount will be promptly returned to the Subscriber without interest or deduction. If this subscription is accepted only in part, a cheque representing any refund of the Subscription Amount for that portion of the subscription for Units not accepted will be promptly delivered to the Subscriber without interest or deduction.

(c)
The Subscriber has been advised to consult its own legal advisors with respect to trading in the Unit Securities and Warrant Stock and with respect to the resale restrictions imposed by the Securities Laws of the United States and the state in which the Subscriber resides and other applicable securities laws, and acknowledges that no representation has been made respecting the applicable holding periods imposed by the Securities Laws or other resale restrictions applicable to such securities that restrict the ability of the Subscriber to resell such securities.

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY, AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY, HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “U.S. SECURITIES ACT”) OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE CORPORATION, (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, (C) IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY” LAWS, OR (D) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND THE HOLDER HAS, PRIOR TO SUCH SALE,  FURNISHED TO THE CORPORATION AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, OR OTHER EVIDENCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, TO SUCH EFFECT.  THE HOLDER MAY NOT ENGAGE IN ANY HEDGING TRANSACTION WITH REGARD TO THESE SECURITIES EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT.
 
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE LISTED ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE; HOWEVER, THE SAID SECURITIES CANNOT BE TRADED THROUGH THE FACILITIES OF THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE SINCE THEY ARE NOT FREELY TRANSFERABLE, AND CONSEQUENTLY, ANY CERTIFICATE REPRESENTING SUCH SECURITIES IS NOT “GOOD DELIVERY” IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON THE TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE.”
 
 
(e)
The Subscriber acknowledges that an investment in the Units is speculative, involving a high degree of risk, and the Subscriber has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Subscribed Units and is able to bear the economic risk of loss of its entire investment.
 
 
(f)
The Corporation and its counsel are relying on the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein and in the attached Schedule “A” hereto to determine the Subscriber’s eligibility to subscribe for Units under applicable Securities Laws, and the Subscriber agrees to indemnify the Corporation and its directors and officers (“indemnitees”) against all losses, claims, costs, expenses, damages or liabilities, including attorneys’ fees, which any of them may suffer or incur as a result of or arising from reliance thereon.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Subscriber shall so indemnify the indemnitees with respect to any unsuccessful action that Subscriber brings with respect to Subscriber’s investment hereunder. The Subscriber undertakes to immediately notify the Corporation of any change in any statement or other information relating to the Subscriber set forth herein or in such applicable Schedules which takes place prior to the Closing Time.
 
 
(g)
The Subscriber acknowledges that investors who acquire securities by way of a private placement have significantly fewer rights and remedies available to them than investors who acquire securities offered by a prospectus. For example, investors who acquire securities by way of a private placement do not have the benefit of certain statutory remedies against an issuer’s agents, auditors, directors and officers that are available to investors who acquire securities offered by a prospectus. And the Subscriber is also aware that the common law may not provide investors with an adequate remedy in the event that they suffer investment losses in connection with securities acquired in a private placement.
 
 
(h)
The Subscriber is responsible for obtaining independent legal advice.
 
 
(i)
The Subscriber agrees that this Subscription Agreement does not constitute an offer to sell or issue, or the solicitation of an offer to buy or subscribe for, the Subscribed Units in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or solicitation is unlawful.
 
 
(j)
The Subscriber acknowledges that there is a risk that insufficient funds may be raised through the Closing to fund the Corporation’s objectives and that further financing may not be available.

5.4           Reliance on Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Acknowledgements
 
The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgements made by the Subscriber in this Subscription Agreement are made with the intention that they may be relied upon by the Corporation in determining the Subscriber’s eligibility (and, if applicable, the eligibility of others for whom the Subscriber is acting) to purchase Units under the Securities Laws.  The Subscriber further agrees that by accepting the Subscribed Units, the Subscriber shall be representing and warranting that such representations, warranties, acknowledgements and covenants are true as at the Closing Time with the same force and effect as if they had been made by the Subscriber at the Closing Time and that they shall survive the purchase by the Subscriber of Units for the benefit of the Corporation and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any subsequent disposition by the Subscriber of any of such Unit Securities.
 
6.              SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS
 
6.1           Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants
 
The representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing and, notwithstanding such Closing or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Person(s) to whom such representations, warranties and covenants are provided (the “Recipient”) with respect thereto, shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the Recipient after the Closing Date for a period of two (2) years.

SUBSCRIBER:

SCHEDULE “B”
TERM SHEET
 
Issue:
Approximately 20 million Units
   
Issue Price:
$0.20 per Unit
   
Issue Size:
Approximately $4 million
   
Units:
Each Unit consists of one share of Common Stock and one-half of one purchase warrant exercisable at US$0.30 for 30 months following closing.
   
Warrants:
Warrant exercise will take place on a 'cash-less' basis, which will result in the warrant holder receiving shares of Common Stock equal to the value of the intrinsic value of the warrants being exercised.  The intrinsic value will be determined by subtracting the exercise price of US$0.30 from the average of the closing prices from the previous 5 days prior to notice of the warrant exercise (conversion from CDN dollars to US dollars will take place).  As a result of the 'cash-less exercise', the warrant holder will not make any payment to the Corporation in connection with exercising the warrants. 12 3
   
Insider Purchases:
Charles B. Wang, Chairman, and G. Scott Paterson, Executive Vice Chairman, intend to purchase, directly or through affiliates, $1,000,000 and $200,000 of the Offering, respectively.
   
Type of Transaction:
Private Placement of Units under Regulation D and Regulation S for U.S. Investors and Non-U.S. Investors, respectively.
   
Eligible Investors:
Accredited investors in selected Canadian provinces, certain U.S. states and certain other jurisdictions.
   
Hold Period:
Shares of Common Stock: Six months from the Closing Date. 4 5
   
 
Warrants: The shares of Common Stock received from any exercise of warrants will be tradable 6 months following closing.4
   
Commissions/Fees:
8% cash and 4% broker Units (4% cash and 2% broker Units to sub agents).
   
Use of Proceeds:
Net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.
   
Closing Date:
On or about September 20, 2012.
   
Agent:
D & D Securities Inc.
 
                                                                    
1 The warrant exercise price is in US dollars due to the fact that NeuLion reports in US dollars. Had the warrant exercise price been in Canadian dollars, time consuming, laborious and costly quarterly financial statement adjustments would have been required due to their status, in that case, as derivative instruments.
2 Assuming an investor exercises 100,000 warrants and the 5-day average closing price of the Corporation's stock price is $.50, then the number of shares of Common Stock issued will be 40,000, being the $20,000 of intrinsic value divided by $.50 per share. 
3 For Canadian investors, the Adjusted Cost Base of the shares of Common Stock received will be zero. If a U.S. investor does not recognize gain or loss upon cashless exercise of the Warrant, the U.S. investor’s basis in the shares received on exercise will equal its basis in the Warrants.  If the cashless exercise of the Warrants is treated as a taxable exchange, the U.S. investor would recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the fair market value of the Warrants surrendered upon exercise and the investor’s basis in those Warrants.
4 Canadian investors can re-sell their securities to non US investors after 4 months plus 1 day have elapsed, with the Regulation S legend remaining on the certificate. 
5 To effect the removal of the hold period legend, US securities laws require that the Corporation's financial statement filings be current during the period from 6 months to 12 months after closing.  The Corporation or its counsel will advise Computershare, the transfer agent, at the end of the six-month period and periodically thereafter, during the six-to-12- month period, whether the Corporation is current in its reporting, so that shares can be transferred without further instruction.
