Exhibit 10.3 SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT made as of this 5th day of January 2006, between Marco Hi-Tech JV Ltd., a New York corporation, with offices at One Penn Plaza, Suite 2514, New York, New York 10119 and the undersigned (the "Subscriber"). The term Company as used herein is defined as set forth in the PPM (as defined below). WHEREAS, pursuant to a Confidential Memorandum dated January 5, 2006, (the "PPM"), the Company is offering in a private placement (the "Offering") to accredited investors up to 150 Units for a purchase price of $25,000 per Unit to a maximum of $3,750,000. Each Unit consists of 10,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), and a three-year warrant to purchase 2,500 shares of Common Stock at $5.00 per share (the "Warrants"); and WHEREAS, the Subscriber desires to subscribe for the number of Units set forth on the signature page hereof, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows: I. SUBSCRIPTION FOR UNITS AND REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF SUBSCRIBER 1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Subscriber hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company such number of Units as is set forth upon the signature page hereof, at a price equal to $25,000 per Unit, and the Company agrees to sell such Units to the Subscriber for said purchase price, subject to the Company's right to sell to the Subscriber such lesser number of Units (or no Units) as the Company may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or desirable. The purchase price is payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Company, pursuant to the wire instructions attached hereto as EXHIBIT A. 1.2 The Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of Units involves a high degree of risk in that (i) 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 Units; (ii) the Units are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or any state securities law; (iii) there is no trading market for the Units, none is likely ever to develop, and the Subscriber may not be able to liquidate his, her or its investment; (iv) transferability of the Units is extremely limited; and (v) an investor could suffer the loss of his, her or its entire investment. 1.3 The Subscriber is an "accredited investor" as such term in defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act, and that the Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Units.1.4 The Subscriber has prior investment experience (including investment in non listed and non registered securities), and has read and evaluated, or has employed the services of an investment advisor, attorney or accountant to read and evaluate, all of the documents furnished or made available by the Company to the Subscriber and to all other prospective investors in the Units, including the PPM, as well as the merits and risks of such an investment by the Subscriber. The Subscriber's overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the Subscriber's net worth, and the Subscriber's investment in the Units will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive. The Subscriber, if an individual, has adequate means of providing for his or her current needs and personal and family contingencies and has no need for liquidity in his or her investment in the Units. The Subscriber is financially able to bear the economic risk of this investment, including the ability to afford holding the Units for an indefinite period or a complete loss of this investment. 1.5 The Subscriber acknowledges receipt and careful review of the PPM, the draft Current Report on Form 8-K with regard to the Company's merger with a publicly-traded company, all supplements to the PPM, and all other documents furnished in connection with this transaction (collectively, the "Offering Documents") and has been furnished by the Company during the course of this transaction with all information regarding the Company which the Subscriber has requested or desires to know; and the Subscriber has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from duly authorized officers or other representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Offering, and any additional information which the Subscriber has requested. 1.6 The Subscriber acknowledges that the purchase of Units may involve tax consequences to the Subscriber and that the contents of the Offering Documents do not contain tax advice. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Subscriber must retain his, her or its own professional advisors to evaluate the tax and other consequences to the Subscriber of an investment in the Units. The Subscriber acknowledges that it is the responsibility of the Subscriber to determine the appropriateness and the merits of a corporate entity to own the Subscriber's Units and the corporate structure of such entity. 1.7 The Subscriber acknowledges that this Offering has not been reviewed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") or any state securities commission, and that no federal or state agency has made any finding or determination regarding the fairness or merits of the Offering. The Subscriber represents that the Units are being purchased for his, her or its own account, for investment only, and not with a view toward distribution or resale to others. The Subscriber agrees that he, she or it will not sell or otherwise transfer the Units or the Common Stock and Warrants comprising the Units, unless they are registered under the Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available, as the same may be amended from time to time. 1.8 The Subscriber understands that the provisions of Rule 144 under the Act are not available for at least one (1) year to permit resales of the Units or the Common Stock and Warrants comprising the Units, and there can be no assurance that the conditions necessary to permit such sales under Rule 144 will ever be satisfied. The Subscriber understands that the Company is under no 2 obligation to comply with the conditions of Rule 144 or take any other action necessary in order to make any exemption for the sale of the Units or the Common Stock and Warrants comprising the Units without registration available. 1.9 The Subscriber agrees to hold the Company and its directors, officers and controlling persons and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns harmless and to indemnify them against all liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by them as a result of any misrepresentation made by the Subscriber contained herein or any sale or distribution by the Subscriber in violation of the Act (including without limitation the rules promulgated thereunder), any state securities laws, or the Company's certificate of incorporation or by-laws, as amended from time to time. 1.10 The Subscriber consents to the placement of a legend on any certificate or other document evidencing the Units stating that they have not been registered under the Act and setting forth or referring to the restrictions on transferability and sale thereof. 1.11 The Subscriber understands that the Company will review and rely on this Subscription Agreement without making any independent investigation; and it is agreed that the Company reserves the unrestricted right to reject or limit any subscription and to withdraw the Offering at any time. 1.12 The Subscriber hereby represents that the address of the Subscriber furnished at the end of this Subscription Agreement is the undersigned's principal residence if the Subscriber is an individual or its principal business address if it is a corporation or other entity. 1.13 The Subscriber acknowledges that if the Subscriber is a Registered Representative of an NASD member firm, the Subscriber must give such firm the notice required by the NASD's Conduct Rules, receipt of which must be acknowledged by such firm on the signature page hereof. 1.14 The Subscriber hereby represents that, except as expressly set forth in the Offering Documents, no representations or warranties have been made to the Subscriber by the Company or any agent, employee or affiliate of the Company and in entering into this transaction, the Subscriber is not relying on any information, other than that contained in the Offering Documents and the results of independent investigation by the Subscriber. 1.15 All information provided by the Subscriber in the Investor Questionnaire attached as EXHIBIT B to the PPM is true and accurate in all respects, and the Subscriber acknowledges that the Company will be relying on such information to its possible detriment in deciding whether the Company can sell these securities to the Subscriber without giving rise to the loss of an exemption from registration under the applicable securities laws. 1.16 The Subscriber is aware that the Company has not entered into any agreement or understanding providing for the purchase of any business or assets other than those referred to in the PPM and no such agreements have been made, or are being negotiated, and that by execution of this Subscription Agreement, 3 the Subscriber consents to any and all resulting terms of such purchases which will be in the sole discretion of the Company over which the Subscriber will have no effective influence.
