The date upon which the Closing shall occur is herein called the “Closing Date”.

 

3. Representations and Warranties of Buyer. The Buyer hereby represents and warrants to Seller as follows:

 

3.1 Due Existence; Authority. If the Buyer is a company, it is a duly organized legal entity, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization and has the requisite company power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. If the Buyer is a partnership, syndicate or other form of unincorporated organization, the Buyer has the necessary legal capacity and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to observe and perform its covenants and obligations hereunder and has obtained all necessary approvals in respect thereof. If the Buyer is a natural person, the Buyer has obtained the age of majority and has the legal capacity and competence to execute this Agreement and to take all actions required pursuant thereto.

 

3.2 Enforceability. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Buyer and is the valid and binding obligation of the Buyer, enforceable against the Buyer in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, moratorium, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws generally affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights, specific performance, injunctive or other equitable remedies.

 

3.3 Investment Representations. The Buyer is acquiring the Securities, and any capital stock issuable upon exercise of the Securities, for the Buyer’s own account, for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution of such securities or any part thereof. The Buyer (i) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business affairs that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks involved in purchasing the Securities, (ii) is able to bear the economic risks (including, a complete loss) involved in purchasing the Securities and has the adequate means of providing for its current needs and contingencies, (iii) has had the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, Seller and persons acting on Seller’s behalf concerning Seller’s business, management, and financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the Securities. The Buyer’s jurisdiction of residence is set forth on the signature page hereto.

 

3.4 1933 SEC Act. The Buyer acknowledges that (i) it has received and had the opportunity to review the draft of a Current Report on Form 8-K containing such information about RxElite as would be required to be disclosed in a Registration Statement on Form 10-SB and accompanying Capitalization Table (the “Jumbo 8-K”), attached as Exhibit D, with respect to the pending acquisition of RxElite by Pubco describing Seller’s business and operations following such acquisition, and (ii) it has reviewed the Jumbo 8-K, including, without limitation, the description of business and risk factors with respect to Seller and this offering set forth in the Jumbo 8-K. The Buyer acknowledges that all documents, records and books pertaining to this investment have been made available for inspection by the Buyer, the Buyer’s attorney and/or the Buyer’s accountant as set forth in Rule 502 of Regulation D under the Act and that all records and books of RxElite were available during reasonable business hours at RxElite’s principal place of business. The Buyer and/or its adviser(s) have had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from RxElite, or a person or persons acting on its behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities, and to obtain additional information, to the extent possessed or obtainable without unreasonable effort or expense. All such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of the Buyer.

 

 

3.5 Accredited Investor; Residence. The Buyer is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Act. The jurisdiction referred to under “Address” in the signature page attached hereto is the Buyer’s residence or place of business and is not created or used solely for the purpose of acquiring the Securities and the Buyer is not purchasing the Securities for the account or benefit of any person in any jurisdiction other than such jurisdiction;

 

3.6 THE BUYER RECOGNIZES THAT AN INVESTMENT IN SELLER IS SPECULATIVE AND INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK, AND THAT PURCHASERS OF SECURITIES COULD LOSE THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT.

 

3.7 Certain Securities Matters. In reliance upon the Buyer’s representations and warranties in this Agreement (including Appendix A to this Agreement), neither the offering nor the sale of the Securities has been registered under the Act or any state securities laws or regulations. The Buyer was not offered or sold the Securities, directly or indirectly, by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising, including the following: (i) any advertisement, article, notice, or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar medium or broadcast over television or radio; or (ii) to the knowledge of the Buyer, any seminar or meeting whose attendees had been invited by any general advertising. There is no public market for the Securities and Seller is under no obligation to register the Securities on the Buyer’s behalf or to assist the Buyer in complying with any exemption from registration (other than as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement). The Buyer has not received or been provided with a prospectus, offering memorandum or sales or advertising literature and the Buyer’s decision to purchase the Securities was not based upon and the Buyer has not relied upon any verbal or written representations as to fact made by Seller or any other person (other than those representations and warranties set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement) but that the Buyer’s decision was based upon the information about Seller that is publicly available.

 

3.8 Liquidity. The Buyer must hold the Securities indefinitely unless the sale or transfer thereof is subsequently registered under the Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Buyer may not subsequently sell, assign, pledge, or otherwise transfer the Securities except: (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement registering the securities under the Act and/or applicable state securities laws, or (ii) pursuant to the opinion of counsel, which is satisfactory to Seller, that such registration under the Act and/or such state securities laws is not required to effect such subsequent sale, assignment, pledge, or other transfer.

 

3.9 Legend. The following legend referring to the foregoing restrictions will be set forth on certificates representing the Securities, as set forth below:

 

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.

 

 

3.10 Certain Prohibited Persons.
