Declarations of the Company

2.	The Company covenants, represents and warrants the following to be true and correct:

The Company is a Delaware corporation, formed by filing its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 2, 2009 under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Exhibit 10.1 Stock Subscription Agreement

The Company has the necessary power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to allot the Shares hereunder and to carry out and perform its obligations hereunder. This Agreement is valid and binding upon the Company and enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable liquidation, wind-up, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity. This Agreement does not require the consent or approval of any third party in order for it to be fully binding on and enforceable against the Company. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the performance by the Company of the provisions of this Agreement will not, violate any provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation.

Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates nor any person acting on its or their behalf (i) has conducted or will conduct any general solicitation (as that term is used in Rule 502(c) of Regulation D) or general advertising with respect to any of the Shares, or (ii) made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under any circumstances that would require registration of the Common Stock under the Securities Act of 1933.

Declarations of Investor

3.	The Investor covenants, represents and warrants the following to be true and correct:

The Investor understands that the Shares are being sold in connection with an offering by the Company of an aggregate of up to 2,000,000 (two million) shares of Common Stock for total proceeds of up to $40,000 (fifty thousand dollars).

The Investor understands and acknowledges that the Shares are being offered and sold under one or more of the exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), that the Investor is purchasing said Shares without being offered or furnished any offering literature, prospectus or other material, financial or otherwise, except as noted herein, that this transaction has not been scrutinized by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or by any regulatory authority charged with the administration of the securities laws of any state. The Investor hereby further represents and warrants as follows:

i) The Investor confirms that the Investor understands and has fully considered, for purposes of this investment, the risks of any investment in the Shares and that the Investor understands that: (i) this investment is suitable only for an investor who is able to bear the economic consequences or losing the Investor’s entire investment, (ii) the purchase of Shares is a speculative investment which involves a high degree of risk of loss by the Investor of the Investor’s entire investment, and (iii) that there is no public market for the Shares and accordingly, it may not be possible for the Investor to liquidate the Investor’s investment in the Shares in case of an emergency. The Investor understands that the following factors, among others, could cause the loss of any or all of the Investor’s investment.

Exhibit 10.1 Stock Subscription Agreement

(1)

The Company currently does not have enough working capital to satisfy its capital needs. The Company is dependent upon its management team to fund its ongoing operations, and cannot be certain that future financing will be available to it on acceptable terms when it needs it. The Company can give no assurances that it will be able to sell any portion of this offering or that management will continue to fund its ongoing operations. This, along with the possibility of other factors and circumstances the Company cannot predict, may require it to seek additional financing faster than anticipated. If the Company is unable to obtain financing to meet its needs, the Investor may lose all of the Investor’s investment.

(2)

The Company’s officers and directors will only devote a limited amount of time to the Company. Their divided interests may hinder the Company's ability to generate revenue. This could result in missed business opportunities and worse-than-expected operating results. The Investor may lose the Investor’s entire investment.

(3)

Management has never operated in the industry in which it intends to operate. This lack of experience may result in the Company’s needing to employ outside experts that have such experience. The additional cost could result in a net operating loss and, ultimately, could result in the Company's failure. Management's inexperience may limit the Company’s ability to generate revenues. The Company may never achieve successful operations, and the Investor may lose the Investor’s entire investment.

ii)

The Investor acknowledges that all documents received from the Company contain the management’s view of the Company, and that the analysis of the market and of the Company’s strategy and competitive position contained therein represent subjective assessments about which reasonable persons could disagree and there can be no assurance that the actual results of operations of the Company will be as contemplated.

iii)

The Investor has been provided an opportunity for a reasonable period of time prior to the date hereof to obtain additional information concerning the offering of the Shares, the Company and all other information to the extent the Company possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense;

Exhibit 10.1 Stock Subscription Agreement

iv) The Investor confirms that the Investor is: (i) able to bear the economic risk of this investment, (ii) able to hold the Shares for the period of time set forth herein, and (iii) presently able to afford a complete loss of the Investor’s investment; and represents that the Investor has sufficient liquid assets so that the illiquidity associated with this investment will not cause any undue financial difficulties or affect the Investor’s ability to provide for the Investor’s current needs and possible financial contingencies, and that the Investor’s commitment to all speculative investments (including this one if the Investor’s subscription is accepted by the Company) is reasonable in relation to the Investor’s net worth and annual income;

v) The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares and of making an informed investment decision. The Investor also represents that it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Shares;

vi) The Shares are being acquired by the Investor solely for the Investor’s own personal account, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or in connection with, any resale or distribution thereof; the Investor has and had no contract, undertaking, understanding, agreement or arrangement, formal or informal, with any person to sell, transfer or pledge to any person the Shares for which the Investor is subscribing, any part thereof, any interest therein or any rights thereto; the Investor has no present plans to enter into any such contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement; and the Investor understands the legal consequences of the foregoing representations and warranties to mean that the Investor must bear the economic risk of the investment for an indefinite period of time because the Shares have not been registered under the Act and, therefore, cannot be sold unless they are subsequently registered under the Act (which the Company is not obligated to do) or unless an exemption from such registration is available; the Shares will be considered “Restricted Securities” for purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Act;

vii) The Investor understands that no Federal or state agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares and that the Company is relying on the truth and accuracy of the representations, declarations and warranties herein made by the Investor in offering the Shares for sale to the Investor without having first registered the Shares under the Act;

viii) The Investor realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if, notwithstanding such representations, the Investor has in mind merely acquiring the Shares for a fixed or determinable period in the future, or for a market rise, or for sale if the market does not rise. The Investor does not have any such intention;

Exhibit 10.1 Stock Subscription Agreement

ix) The Investor represents and warrants to the Company that all information that the Investor has provided to the Company, including, without limitation, the information in the Investor Questionnaire attached hereto or previously provided to the Company (the “Investor Questionnaire”), is true, correct and complete as of the date hereof. In the event that any information in the Investor Questionnaire changes on or before the Closing, the Investor will update the Investor Questionnaire to reflect such changes.

The Investor has relied solely upon the advice of its own tax and legal advisors with respect to the tax and other legal aspects of this transaction. No representations or warranties have been made to the Investor by the Company, or any officer, employee, agent, affiliate or subsidiary of the Company, other than the representations of the Company contained herein, and in subscribing for Shares the Investor is not relying upon any representations other than those contained herein.

The Investor has the necessary power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to receive and hold the Shares and to carry out and perform its obligations hereunder. This Agreement is valid and binding upon the Investor and enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable liquidation, wind-up, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Investor does not, and the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby and the performance by the Investor of the provisions of this Agreement will not violate any provisions of the Investor’s Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, or any provisions of, or result in the acceleration of any obligation under, or constitute an event of default, or an event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an event of default under any mortgage, lien, lease, agreement, instrument, order, arbitration award, judgment or decree to which the Investor is bound, which, either individually or in the aggregate would result in a material adverse change in the business, properties, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) of the Investor.

Any resale of the Shares during the ‘distribution compliance period’ as defined in Rule 902(f) to Regulation S shall only be made in compliance with exemptions from registration afforded by Regulation S. Further, any such sale of the Shares in any jurisdiction outside of the United States will be made in compliance with the securities laws of such jurisdiction. The Investor will not offer to sell or sell the Shares in any jurisdiction unless the Investor obtains all required consents, if any.

Exhibit 10.1 Stock Subscription Agreement

(1) The Investor understands that the Shares are being offered and sold to the Investor in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws under Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Investor set forth herein and in the Investor Questionnaire attached hereto in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of the Investor to acquire the Shares. In this regard, the Investor represents, warrants and agrees that:

(2)

The Investor is not a U.S. Person (as defined below) and is not an affiliate (as defined in Rule 501(b) under the Securities Act) of the Company and is not acquiring the Shares for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person. A U.S. Person means any one of the following:

Exhibit 10.1 Stock Subscription Agreement

(3)

At the time of the origination of contact concerning this Agreement and the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Investor was outside of the United States.

(4)

The Investor will not, during the period commencing on the date of issuance of the Shares and ending on the first anniversary of such date, or such shorter period as may be permitted by Regulation S or other applicable securities law (the “Restricted Period”), offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares in the United States, or to a U.S. Person ) for the account or for the benefit of a U.S. Person, or otherwise in a manner that is not in compliance with Regulation S.

(6)

(9)

Neither the Investor nor any person acting on the Investor’s behalf has undertaken or carried out any activity for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the United States, its territories or possessions, for any of the Shares. The Investor agrees not to cause any advertisement of the Shares to be published in any newspaper or periodical or posted in any public place and not to issue any circular relating to the Shares, except such advertisements that include the statements required by Regulation S under the Securities Act, and only offshore and not in the U.S. or its territories, and only in compliance with any local applicable securities laws.

Exhibit 10.1 Stock Subscription Agreement

If the answer to the above question is “Yes,” please contact Carl M. Sherer, Esq. at ###-###-#### for additional information that will be required.

3. Are shareholders, partners or other holders of equity or beneficial interest in the Investor able to decide individually whether to participate, or the extent of their participation, in the Investor’s investment in the Company (i.e., can shareholders, partners or other holders of equity or beneficial interest in the Investor determine whether their capital will form part of the capital invested by the Investor in the Company)?

o No

For example, a plan which is maintained by a foreign corporation, governmental entity or church, a Keogh plan covering no common-law employees and an individual retirement account are employee benefit plans within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA but generally are not subject to ERISA (collectively, “Non-ERISA Plans”). In general, a foreign or US entity which is not an operating company and which is not publicly traded or registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and in which 25% or more of the value of any class of equity interest is held by employee pension or welfare plans (including an entity which is deemed to hold the assets of any such plan), would be deemed to hold the assets of one or more employee benefit plans pursuant to 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101. However, if only Non-ERISA Plans were invested in such an entity, the entity generally would not be subject to ERISA. For purposes of determining whether this 25% threshold has been met or exceeded, the value of any equity interest held by a person (other than such a plan or entity) who has discretionary authority or control with respect to the assets of the entity, or any person who provides investment advice for a fee (direct or indirect) with respect to such assets, or any affiliate of such a person, is disregarded.
