THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT made as of this _____ day of _______ 2007 between NOBLE MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware with offices 4430 Noble Avenue – Apartment 201, Sherman Oaks, CA 91403 (the “Company”), and the undersigned (the “Subscriber” and together with each of the other subscribers in the Offering (defined below), the “Subscribers”).
WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue up to $100,000 (100 Units) aggregate amount of units (a “Unit” and collectively, the “Units”) in a private placement (the “Offering”), at a purchase price of $1,000 per Unit;
WHEREAS, each Unit shall consist of four thousand (4,000) shares of Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Shares”); and
WHEREAS, the Subscriber is delivering simultaneously herewith a completed confidential investor questionnaire (the “Questionnaire”),
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:
I. | SUBSCRIPTION FOR UNITS AND REPRESENTATIONS BY AND COVENANTS OF SUBSCRIBER |
1.1. Subscription for Units. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Subscriber hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company such aggregate amount of Units as is set forth upon the signature page hereof; 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 as the Company may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or desirable. The purchase price is payable by certified or bank check made payable to “Noble Medical Technologies, Inc.” and delivered contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement to the Company’s address set forth above.
1.2. Reliance on Exemptions. The Subscriber acknowledges that this Offering has not been reviewed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or any state agency because of the Company’s representations that this is intended to be a nonpublic offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) and state securities laws. The Subscriber understands that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Subscriber’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Subscriber set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Subscriber to acquire the Units.
1.3. Investment Purpose. The Subscriber represents that the Shares comprising the Units (the “Securities”) are being purchased for his or her own account, for investment purposes only and not for distribution or resale to others in contravention of the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. The Subscriber agrees that it will not
1
sell or otherwise transfer the Securities unless they are registered under the 1933 Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available.
1.4. Accredited Investor. The Subscriber represents and warrants that he or she is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act, as indicated by its responses to the Questionnaire, and that it is able to bear the economic risk of any investment in the Units. The Subscriber further represents and warrants that the information furnished in the Questionnaire is accurate and complete in all material respects.
1.5. RISK OF INVESTMENT. THE SUBSCRIBER RECOGNIZES THAT THE PURCHASE OF THE UNITS INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK INCLUDING, WITHOUT
2
1.6. LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL RISKS DISCUSSED IN THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT. AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY AND THE UNITS MAY RESULT IN THE LOSS OF A SUBSCRIBER’S ENTIRE INVESTMENT.
(a) Risk of Loss of Investment. An investment in the Company and the Units offered hereby involve a high degree of risk. An investment in the Units is suitable only for investors who can bear a loss of their entire investment.
(b) Value of Shares is Speculative. The terms of this offering have been determined arbitrarily by the Company. There is no relationship between such terms and the Company’s assets, earnings, book value and/or any other objective criteria of value.
(c) Dependence on Net Proceeds; No Minimum Offering. The Company is wholly dependent upon the net proceeds of this Offering to fund its operations, as more specifically described elsewhere in this Subscription Agreement. There is no commitment by any person to purchase Units and there is no assurance that any number of Units will be sold. Additionally, there is no minimum amount of funds that are required to be raised in order for the Company to accept subscriptions received from investors and the Company’s may terminate this Offering prior to the expiration of the Offering Period. There is no assurance that the Company will sell a sufficient number of Units in this Offering on a timely basis or that the net proceeds after payment of debts and other obligations will be adequate for the Company’s needs.
(d) Need for Additional Capital; Additional Private Placement. The net proceeds raised by the Company from this Offering will be used immediately to fund the Company’s current operations. The Company will therefore require significant additional financing shortly after this Offering, regardless of the net proceeds received, in order to satisfy its cash requirements. Upon completion of this offering, the Company intends to affect a registration on Form SB-2, become a publicly traded entity and seek to raise additional funds in private placement transactions. However, there is no assurance that it will be able to do so in a timely manner or on terms that will enable it to enter its proposed business on a reasonable basis.
(e) Restrictions on Resale. The Units and the Shares, are “restricted” securities and may not be resold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act and applicable state or “blue sky” laws.
(f) No Operating History; History of Losses or Nominal Income; Development Stage Entity. The Company not commenced operations. To date and since inception, the Company has not generated any revenues. The Company expects to incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future and has no operating history on which the Company can evaluate its potential for future success. The Company is a developmental stage entity. To evaluate the Company, investors should evaluate the Company in light of the expenses, delays, uncertainties, and complications typically encountered by early-stage development businesses, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Early-stage development businesses commonly face risks such as the following:
· | lack of sufficient capital; |
· | unanticipated problems, delays, and expenses relating to product development and implementation; |
· | lack of intellectual property; |
· | licensing and marketing difficulties; |
· | competition; |
· | technological changes; and |
· | uncertain market acceptance of products and services. |
(g) Dependence upon the Company’s Sole Officer and Director. The Company is wholly dependent upon Richard Krutosik, currently the sole officer and director of the Company, for the operations and success of the Company. The loss of his services would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business,
3
(h) financial condition and results of operations. The Company does not have an employment agreement with Peter Destler who is expected to devote only a portion of his working time to the affairs of the Company.
(i) Capital Structure of the Company. The following sets forth the capital structure of the Company prior to the sale of any Securities in this Offering.
(i) The Company has twenty one million (21,000,000) authorized shares of capital stock consisting of (A) twenty million (20,000,000) shares of Common Stock and one million (1,000,000) shares of blank check preferred stock.
(ii) The Company has 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as follows:
(A) Richard Krutosik – 3,920,000; and
(B) Frank J. Hariton – 80,000 Shares.
Mr. Richard Krutosik may reallocate a portion of his shares in the future.
(iii) The Company has no other securities currently issued and outstanding and there are no warrants, options or other securities outstanding that are convertible into or exercisable for any securities of the Company.
1.6 Summary of Proposed Business. The Company intends to develop, manufacture and market its “multi-lead retractable console” for electrocardiogram (“EKG”) equipment which it believes will be accepted by the market as it will save medical technician’s time in attaching the multiple leads necessary to a patient in situations where time can be critical to the medical outcome. The Company will secure office space, hire necessary personnel, further develop the design for its product, consider and possibly apply for patent protection, either manufacture or arrange for the manufacture of its product, and commence its marketing efforts. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in these endeavors or that if accomplishes all of these steps it will be able to operate profitably. No assurance is given that the Company will be granted a patent if it chooses to apply for one, that any such patent will offer the Company meaningful against infringement or that such patent would not be found to infringe upon patents granted by others. Based on management’s personal experience, the Company believes that its product is a legitimate business opportunity for the Company and its shareholders.
