Any warrant exercises will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares.
The Company’s reports and forms heretofore or hereafter filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are incorporated herein by reference. These reports and forms are located at www.sec.gov.
The Units being subscribed for pursuant to this Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Offering is being made on a “best efforts” basis to “accredited investors,” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act, and non-”U.S. persons,” as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion and for any reason, to reject any Subscriber’s subscription in whole or in part, or to allot less than the number of Units subscribed for.
The closing of the Offering (the “Closing,” and the date on which such Closing occurs hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date”) shall be at the offices of the Company. The Company may conduct multiple closings for the sale of the Units until the termination of the Offering.
1. Subscription. The undersigned Subscriber hereby subscribes to purchase the number of Units set forth on the signature page attached hereto, at an aggregate price as set forth on such signature page (the “Purchase Price”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and on the basis of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein.
2. Subscription Procedure. To complete a subscription for the Units, the Subscriber must fully comply with the subscription procedure provided in this Section on or before the Closing Date.
a. Transaction Documents. On or before the Closing Date, the Subscriber shall review, complete and execute the Signature Page to this Agreement and the Investor Certification, attached hereto as Appendix A (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”), and deliver the Transaction Documents to the Company. Executed documents may be delivered to the Company by facsimile or electronic mail (e-mail), if the Subscriber delivers the original copies of the documents to the Company as soon as practicable thereafter.
b. Purchase Price. Simultaneously with the delivery of the Transaction Documents to the Company as provided herein, and in any event on or prior to the Closing Date, the Subscriber shall deliver to the Company the full Purchase Price by check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds.
c. Company Discretion. The Subscriber understands and agrees that the Company in its sole discretion reserves the right to accept or reject this or any other subscription for Units, in whole or in part, notwithstanding prior receipt by the Subscriber of notice of acceptance of this subscription. The Company shall have no obligation hereunder until the Company shall execute and deliver to the Subscriber an executed copy of this Agreement. If this subscription is rejected in whole, or the offering of Units is terminated, all funds received from the Subscriber will be returned without interest or offset, and this Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force or effect. If this subscription is rejected in part, the funds for the rejected portion of this subscription will be returned without interest or offset, and this Agreement will continue in full force and effect to the extent this subscription was accepted.
3. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Subscriber the following:
a. Organization and Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as currently conducted. The Company is duly qualified to transact business in each jurisdiction in which the failure to be so qualified would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, properties or financial condition (a “Material Adverse Effect”).
b. Authorization. As of the Closing, all action on the part of the Company, its board of directors, officers and existing stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder shall have been taken, and this Agreement, assuming due execution by the parties hereto, will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to: (i) judicial principles limiting the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, and other equitable remedies and (ii) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect generally relating to or affecting creditors’ rights.
c. Valid Issuance of the Common Stock. The Units of Common Stock, when issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the consideration expressed herein, shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will be free of restrictions on transfer directly or indirectly created by the Company other than restrictions on transfer under this Agreement and under applicable federal and state securities laws.
d. Governmental Consents. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any federal, state or local governmental authority on the part of the Company is required in connection with the offer, sale or issuance of the Units, except for the following: (i) the filing of such notices as may be required under the Securities Act and (ii) the compliance with any applicable state securities laws, which compliance will have occurred within the appropriate time periods therefor.
e. No General Solicitation. Neither the Company nor any person acting on behalf of the Company has offered or sold any of the Units by any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D).
4. Representations and Warranties of the Subscriber. The Subscriber represents and warrants to the Company the following:
a. The Subscriber, its advisers, if any, and designated representatives, if any, have the knowledge and experience in financial and business matters necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of its prospective investment in the Company, and have carefully reviewed and understand the risks of, and other considerations relating to, the purchase of Units and the tax consequences of the investment, and have the ability to bear the economic risks of the investment.
b. The Subscriber is acquiring the Units for investment for its own account and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The Subscriber understands and acknowledges that the Units have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent of the Subscriber as expressed herein. The Subscriber further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to any third person with respect to any of the Units.
c. The Subscriber understands, even though the Company has a trading symbol on the OTCQB, that a limited market now exists for the Company’s Common Stock, and that there may never be an active public market for the Units of Common Stock sold in the Offering.
d. The Subscriber, its advisers, if any, and designated representatives, if any, have received and reviewed such information about the Company as they have requested and have had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management and financial affairs with its management. The Subscriber understands that such discussions, as well as any written information provided by the Company, were intended to describe the aspects of the Company’s business and prospects which the Company believes to be material, but were not necessarily a thorough or exhaustive description, and except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to the completeness of such information and makes no representation or warranty of any kind with respect to any information provided by any entity other than the Company. Some of such information may include projections as to the future performance of the Company, which projections may not be realized, are based on assumptions which may not be correct and are subject to numerous factors beyond the Company’s control.
e. As of the Closing, all action on the part of Subscriber, and its officers, directors and partners, if applicable, necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the performance of all obligations of the Subscriber hereunder and thereunder shall have been taken, and this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, assuming due execution by the parties hereto and thereto, constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Subscriber, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to: (i) judicial principles limiting the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, and other equitable remedies and (ii) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect generally relating to or affecting creditors’ rights.
f. The Subscriber either (i) is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act or (ii) is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Regulation S as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, and, in each case, shall submit to the Company such further assurances of such status as may be reasonably requested by the Company.
g. The Subscriber, if a non-U.S. Person, agrees that it is acquiring the Units in an offshore transaction pursuant to Regulation S and hereby represents to the Company as follows:
(i) The Subscriber is outside the United States when receiving and executing this Subscription Agreement;
(ii) The Subscriber has not acquired the Units as a result of, and will not itself engage in, any “directed selling efforts” (as defined in Regulation S) in the United States in respect of the Units which would include any activities undertaken for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States for the resale of the Units; provided, however, that the Subscriber may sell or otherwise dispose of the Units pursuant to registration of the Units under the Securities Act and any applicable state and provincial securities laws or under an exemption from such registration requirements and as otherwise provided herein;
(iii) The Subscriber understands and agrees that offers and sales of any of the Units prior to the expiration of a period of one year after the date of transfer of the Units under this Agreement (the “Distribution Compliance Period”), shall only be made in compliance with the safe harbor provisions set forth in Regulation S, pursuant to the registration provisions of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that all offers and sales after the Distribution Compliance Period shall be made only in compliance with the registration provisions of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and in each case only in accordance with all applicable securities laws;
(iv) The Subscriber understands and agrees not to engage in any hedging transactions involving the Units prior to the end of the Distribution Compliance Period unless such transactions are in compliance with the Securities Act; and
(v) The Subscriber hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Units or any use of this Subscription Agreement, including: (a) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Units; (b) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase; (c) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained; and (d) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of the Units. Such Subscriber’s subscription and payment for, and its continued beneficial ownership of the Units, will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Subscriber’s jurisdiction.
h. The Subscriber or its duly authorized representative realizes that because of the inherently speculative nature of investments of the kind contemplated by the Company, the Company’s investment results may be expected to fluctuate from month to month and from period to period and will, generally, involve a high degree of financial and market risk that can result in substantial or, at times, even total losses.
i. The Subscriber has adequate means of providing for its current and anticipated financial needs and contingencies, is able to bear the economic risk for an indefinite period of time and has no need for liquidity of the investment in the Units and could afford complete loss of such investment.
j. The Subscriber is not subscribing for Units 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, radio or the internet, or presented at any seminar or meeting, or any solicitation of a subscription by a person not previously known to the Subscriber in connection with investments in securities generally.
k. All of the information that the Subscriber has heretofore furnished, or which is set forth herein is correct and complete as of the date of this Agreement, and, if there should be any material change in such information prior to the admission of the undersigned to the Company, the Subscriber will immediately furnish revised or corrected information to the Company.
5. Registration Rights. No registration rights are granted in connection with the Offering of the Units.
6. Transfer Restrictions. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees as follows:
a. The Subscriber understands that the certificates representing the Units shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such certificates or other instruments):
