SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

This Subscription Agreement is executed by Pride Business Development Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with an office at 1230 Calle Suerte, Camarillo, California 93012 (hereinafter referred to as the “ISSUER”) and the undersigned, with an office/residence at the address on the signature page hereof (hereinafter referred to as the (“SUBSCRIBER”).

The ISSUER will sell units (“Units”) in an offering on a “no minimum, 50 Unit maximum basis”, at US$25,000.00 per Unit (subscriptions for fractional Units are permitted and may be accepted at ISSUER’S discretion). Each Unit consists of 50,000 shares of common stock, US$.001 par value (the “Shares”) and 50,000 warrants (the “Warrant”) to acquire 50,000 Shares of the ISSUER at an exercise price of USD$1.00 per Share, exercisable for period commencing on the closing of this offering and ending one year after the closing of this offering, or earlier, subject to the terms and conditions of the Warrant. Following the ISSUER’s receipt of subscription funds into its account the ISSUER shall direct its transfer agent to issue the stock certificate representing the Shares subscribed and to be sent by the transfer agent to the SUBSCRIBER. The offering will continue until the ISSUER in its sole discretion decides to terminate the offering. There will be no notice of the termination of the offering to any persons, including SUBSCRIBER. Subscriptions may be rejected, in whole or in part, in which case the ISSUER will return the subscription funds, without interest, after deduction of the amount due for an accepted partial subscription, if any. This offering is being made by the ISSUER in reliance upon the exemption contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act").

Because the offering is being made on a no minimum basis, and there is no assurance that all the securities offered will be subscribed for, if you are an early investor/subscriber, you bear a disproportionate risk that your funds will be the only ones received by the ISSUER and will be inadequate to implement the ISSUER’s business plan. All funds delivered to the ISSUER’s attorneys will be considered those of the ISSUER at the time of receipt, subject to the rights of creditors of the ISSUER.

This Subscription Agreement has been entered into for the sale of the number of Units, set forth on the signature page hereof (“Units”).

Each of the parties hereto hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the other as follows:

1. Agreement to Subscribe; Subscription Price.

a. Subscription. SUBSCRIBER hereby subscribes for, and ISSUER agrees to sell the Units for an aggregate purchase price of US$25,000.00 times the number of Units subscribed for (“Purchase Price”). To subscribe, the SUBSCRIBER must complete the appropriate investor questionnaire, the NASD questionnaire, the signature page and complete the Internal Revenue Service Form, and return all four items to the ISSUER. (If you do not complete the required tax form, you may be subject to backup withholding taxes.)


b. Form of Payment. SUBSCRIBER shall pay the Purchase Price for the Units purchased hereunder by wire transfer of same day funds in United States Dollars to the attorneys of the ISSUER. ISSUER shall deliver one or more certificates representing the Shares to the SUBSCRIBER promptly after acceptance of the subscription, and send to the SUBSCRIBER a copy of this agreement countersigned by the ISSUER.

Wired funds should be sent to the following:


Bank of America
Westlake Village, CA
ABA: 026 009 593
Acct # 06687-42811
FBO: Pride Business Development Holdings, Inc.


c. Irrevocable Subscription. This subscription by the SUBSCRIBER is irrevocable and may not be assigned, hypothecated or transferred. The Shares subject to this Subscription Agreement may not be assigned, hypothecated, transferred, sold or optioned prior to receipt of the stock certificate representing the Shares, and then only in accordance with this Subscription Agreement and the applicable Federal and state securities laws.

2. Subscriber Representations.

a. Transactional Representations. SUBSCRIBER represents, warrants to and agrees with ISSUER as follows:

(i) SUBSCRIBER is purchasing the Units for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view toward distribution.

(ii) SUBSCRIBER understands that the Units, including the Shares, have not been registered under the Securities Act and that such securities are “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. SUBSCRIBER further understands that the Units, including the Shares, may not be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred by such SUBSCRIBER except: A) (1) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (2) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; and B) in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the states of the United States and other jurisdictions;

(iii) SUBSCRIBER understands that the purchase of the Units, including the Shares, involves a high degree of risk, including entire loss of the investment and further acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of the purchase of the securities, including the total loss of its investment and the risk that the ISSUER may not sell all the Units offered and only raise a small portion of the funds sought;

2

(iv) SUBSCRIBER understands that the Units, including the Shares, are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws and that the ISSUER is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of SUBSCRIBER set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of SUBSCRIBER to acquire the securities;

(v) SUBSCRIBER, and its independent advisors, are sufficiently experienced in financial and business matters to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Units, including the Shares, and to make an informed decision relating thereto; and

(vi) In evaluating its investment in the Units, including the Shares, SUBSCRIBER has consulted its own investment and/or legal and/or tax advisors and has determined, independent of the ISSUER, including its agents and representatives, that the investment being subscribed for by SUBSCRIBER is suitable for SUBSCRIBER.

(vii) The SUBSCRIBER is not subscribing for Units, including the Shares, as a result of, or subsequent to, any advertisement, article, notice, or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or meeting.

(viii) The SUBSCRIBER shall indemnify and hold harmless the ISSUER, and any officer, director, or control person of the ISSUER, who is or may be a party to, or is or may be threatened to be made a party to, any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, by reason of, or arising from, any actual or alleged misrepresentation or misstatement of facts or omission to represent or state facts made or alleged to have been made by the SUBSCRIBER to the ISSUER (or any agent or representative of the ISSUER) or omitted or alleged to have been omitted by the SUBSCRIBER, concerning the SUBSCRIBER or the SUBSCRIBER’s authority to invest or financial position in connection with this offering, including, without limitation, any such misrepresentation, misstatement, or omission contained in the Questionnaire or any other document submitted by the SUBSCRIBER, against losses, liabilities, and expenses for which the ISSUER, or any officer, director, or control person of the ISSUER has not otherwise been reimbursed (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by the ISSUER, or such officer, director, or control person in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding.

(ix) The SUBSCRIBER has been furnished with, and has carefully read this Subscription Agreement and is familiar with, and understands, the terms of the Offering. With respect to individual or partnership tax and other economic considerations involved in this investment, the undersigned is not relying on the ISSUER or any agent or representative of any of the ISSUER. The SUBSCRIBER has carefully considered and has, to the extent the SUBSCRIBER believes such discussion necessary, discussed with the SUBSCRIBER's professional legal, tax, accounting, and financial advisors the suitability of an investment in the Units, including the Shares, for the SUBSCRIBER's particular tax and financial situation and has determined that the Units, including the Shares, being subscribed for by the SUBSCRIBER are a suitable investment for the SUBSCRIBER.

3

(x) The SUBSCRIBER or the SUBSCRIBER's purchaser representative, as the case may be, has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax, and business matters so as to enable the SUBSCRIBER to utilize the information made available to the SUBSCRIBER in connection with the Offering to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Units, including the Shares, and to make an informed investment decision with respect thereto.

(xi) ISSUER represents, warrants to and agrees with SUBSCRIBER that it understands that the ISSUER’s press releases, websites and filings with the United States Securities & Exchange Commission, contain references to future and prospective events which may or may not occur in the future as a result of matters both within and outside the control of the ISSUER and that SUBSCRIBER is not relying upon any of the future and prospective events set forth in the ISSUER’s press releases, websites and filings with the United States Securities & Exchange Commission, including any of its contents, in making its decision to invest in the Offering and the Units.

(xii) IN MAKING AN INVESTMENT DECISION PURCHASERS, WHICH INCLUDES SUBSCRIBERS, MUST RELY ON THEIR OWN EXAMINATION OF THE ISSUER AND THE TERMS OF THE OFFERING, INCLUDING THE MERITS AND RISKS INVOLVED. THE UNITS, INCLUDING THE SHARES, HAVE NOT BEEN RECOMMENDED BY ANY FEDERAL OR STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY. FURTHERMORE, THE FOREGOING AUTHORITIES HAVE NOT CONFIRMED THE ACCURACY OR DETERMINED THE ADEQUACY OF THE DISCLOSURE MATERIALS OR THIS DOCUMENT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

 
b. Current Public Information. SUBSCRIBER acknowledges that SUBSCRIBER has been furnished with or has otherwise acquired copies of the ISSUER’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the Forms 10-QSB for the quarters ended March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006, September 30, 2006, and such other public information, all as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The public information includes information about the ISSUER’s wholly owned subsidiary, Bodyguard, Inc.

c. Independent Investigation; Access. SUBSCRIBER acknowledges that, in making its decision to purchase the Units subscribed for, it has relied on the publicly available information about the ISSUER only and upon independent investigations made by it and its representatives, if any. SUBSCRIBER and such representatives, if any, prior to the sale to it of the securities offered hereby, have been given access to, and the opportunity to examine, all material books and records of the ISSUER (with materiality being determined by the ISSUER), all material contracts and documents relating to the ISSUER and this offering (with materiality being determined by the ISSUER) and an opportunity to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, executive officers of ISSUER concerning the ISSUER and the terms and conditions of this offering. SUBSCRIBER and its advisors, if any, acknowledge that they have received answers to any such inquiries and copies of documentary information requested.

d. No Government Recommendation or Approval. SUBSCRIBER understands that no federal or state agency has passed on or made any finding or determination relating to the fairness of an investment in the Units, including the Shares, or has passed or made, or will pass on or make, any recommendation or endorsement of the Units, including the Shares.

3. Issuer Representations.

a. Authority; Corporate Action. ISSUER has all necessary corporate power and authority to enter into this Subscription Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. All corporate action necessary to be taken by ISSUER to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement, and all other agreements and instruments delivered by ISSUER in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby has been duly and validly taken and this Subscription Agreement have been duly executed and delivered by ISSUER. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Subscription Agreement, it constitutes the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of ISSUER, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or similar laws of general application now or hereafter in effect affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity); and (ii) the applicability of the federal and state securities laws and public policy as to the enforceability of the indemnification provisions of Section 3 hereof. The sale by the ISSUER of the Units, including the Shares, does not conflict with the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the ISSUER, or any material contract by which the ISSUER or its property is bound, or any federal or state laws or regulations or decree, ruling or judgment of any United States or state court applicable to the ISSUER or its property.

b. Issuer Shares to Subscriber. The Units, including the Shares, issued to SUBSCRIBER pursuant to this Subscription Agreement will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

Since January 1, 2003, the ISSUER believes it has filed with the SEC all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed (such reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents are hereinafter referred to as the "SEC Documents"). To the best knowledge of the ISSUER, the financial statements of the ISSUER, included in the SEC Documents (the "Financial Statements") comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except in the case of unaudited statements, as permitted by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X) and fairly present, in all material respects, the financial position of the ISSUER as of the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (on the basis stated therein and subject, in the case of unaudited quarterly statements, to the absence of complete notes and to normal year-end audit adjustments). However, the Form 10-QSB for the quarters ended June 30, 2006 and September 30, 2006 have not been reviewed by independent auditors for the Company. Since the date of the Financial Statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of the ISSUER.

The representations and warranties of each party shall survive the purchase and sale of the Units. Each party to this Subscription Agreement agrees to fully indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other party, its officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, which may result from a breach of such party’s representations, warranties and covenants contained herein.

5. Legend. SUBSCRIBER understands that the ISSUER will instruct its transfer agent to place a stop transfer order with respect to the certificates representing the Shares and that such certificates and agreements will bear the following legend or substantially similar: "The securities represented by this certificate have been acquired for investment and have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Transfer of these securities is prohibited except pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from registration.”

6. Placement Agent.

The ISSUER and SUBSCRIBER hereby waives any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum. Any process or summons to be served upon the ISSUER and SUBSCRIBER may be served by transmitting a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to it at its address set forth herein. Such mailing shall be deemed personal service and shall be legal and binding upon the ISSUER and SUBSCRIBER in any action, proceeding or claim. SUBSCRIBER agrees that if it seeks to commence a suit in any other jurisdiction, it will reimburse ISSUER for the costs to enforce this provision and to remove to an appropriate California court all actions that have been commenced and are related thereto and terminate the action in the jurisdiction other than California.
