1.2               The Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of the Units involves a high degree of risk including, but not limited to, the following: (a) the Company requires funds in addition to the proceeds of the Offering; (b) an investment in the Company is highly speculative, and only investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the Company and the Units; (c) the Subscriber may not be able to liquidate its investment; (d) transferability of the Common Stock and the Warrants is extremely limited; (e) in the event of a disposition, the Subscriber could sustain the loss of its entire investment; (f) the Company has not paid any dividends since its inception and does not anticipate paying any dividends; (g) the Company may issue additional securities in the future which have rights and preferences that are senior to those of the Common Stock; and (h) that the Company stock may not successfully become actively traded. Without limiting the generality of the representations set forth in Section 1.5 below, the Subscriber represents that the Subscriber has carefully reviewed the section of the Memorandum captioned "Risk Factors."
 
1.3               The Subscriber represents that the Subscriber is an "accredited investor" as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D ("Regulation D") promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and that the Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Units.
 
1.4               The Subscriber hereby acknowledges and represents that (a) the Subscriber has knowledge and experience in business and financial matters, prior investment experience, or the Subscriber has employed the services of a "purchaser representative" (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D), attorney and/or accountant to read all of the documents furnished or made available by the Company both to the Subscriber and to all other prospective investors in the Units to evaluate the merits and risks of such an investment on the Subscriber's behalf; (b) the Subscriber recognizes the highly speculative nature of this investment; and (c) the Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk that the Subscriber hereby assumes.
 
1.5              The Subscriber hereby acknowledges receipt and careful review of this Agreement, the Memorandum (which includes the Risk Factors), including all exhibits thereto, and any documents which may have been made available upon request as reflected therein (collectively referred to as the "Offering Materials") and hereby represents that the Subscriber has been furnished by the Company during the course of the Offering with all information regarding the Company, the terms and conditions of the Offering and any additional information that the Subscriber has requested or desired to know, and has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from duly authorized officers or other representatives of the Company concerning the Company and the terms and conditions of the Offering.
 
1.6              (a)    In making the decision to invest in the Units the Subscriber has relied solely upon the information provided by the Company in the Offering Materials. To the extent necessary, the Subscriber has retained, at its own expense, and relied upon appropriate professional advice regarding the investment, tax and legal merits and consequences of this Agreement and the purchase of the Units hereunder. The Subscriber disclaims reliance on any statements made or information provided by any person or entity in the course of Subscriber's consideration of an investment in the Units other than the Offering Materials.

 
 

 

(b)    The Subscriber represents that (i) the Subscriber was contacted regarding the sale of the Units by the Company (or an authorized agent or representative thereof) and (ii) no Units were offered or sold to it by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising, and in connection therewith, the Subscriber did not (A) receive or review any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in a newspaper or magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, whether closed circuit, or generally available; or (B) attend any seminar meeting or industry investor conference whose attendees were invited by any general solicitation or general advertising.
 
1.7              The Subscriber hereby represents that the Subscriber, either by reason of the Subscriber's business or financial experience or the business or financial experience of the Subscriber's professional advisors (who are unaffiliated with and not compensated by the Company or any affiliate or selling agent of the Company, directly or indirectly), has the capacity to protect the Subscriber's own interests in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby.
 
1.8              The Subscriber hereby acknowledges that the Offering has not been reviewed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") nor any state regulatory authority since the Offering is intended to be exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act pursuant to Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Subscriber understands that the Common Stock, the Warrant Shares (defined below), and the Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act or under any state securities or "blue sky" laws and agrees not to sell, pledge, assign or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Common Stock, Warrant Shares, or Warrants unless they are registered under the Securities Act and under any applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws or unless an exemption from such registration is available.
 
1.9              The Subscriber understands that the Common Stock, Warrant Shares and Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a claimed exemption under the provisions of the Securities Act that depends, in part, upon the Subscriber's investment intention. In this connection, the Subscriber hereby represents that the Subscriber is purchasing the Units for the Subscriber's own account for investment and not with a view toward the resale or distribution to others. The Subscriber, if an entity, further represents that it was not formed for the purpose of purchasing the Units.
 
1.10             The Subscriber understands that there is no trading market for the Common Stock and that an active market may not develop for the Common Stock. The Subscriber understands that even if an active market develops for the Common Stock, Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act requires for non-affiliates ("Rule 144"), among other conditions, a one-year holding period commencing as of the date that the Company files "Form 10 information" with the SEC, prior to the resale of securities acquired in a non-public offering without having to satisfy the registration requirements under the Securities Act. The Subscriber understands and hereby acknowledges that the Company is under no obligation to register any of the Common Stock, the Warrant Shares, or the Warrants under the Securities Act or any state securities or "blue sky" laws other than as set forth in Article 5.

 
 

 
 
1.11             The Subscriber consents to the placement of a legend on any certificate or other document evidencing the Common Stock, the Warrant Shares, and the Warrants that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities or "blue sky" laws and setting forth or referring to the restrictions on transferability and sale thereof contained in this Agreement. The Subscriber is aware that the Company will make a notation in its appropriate records with respect to the restrictions on the transferability of such securities. The legend to be placed on each certificate shall be in form substantially similar to the following:
 
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED. UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT-) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES OR "BLUE SKY LAWS," AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED ABSENT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER SUCH ACT OR COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER SUCH ACT, OR UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."
 
1.12             The Subscriber understands that the Company will review this Agreement and is hereby given authority by the Subscriber to call Subscriber's bank or place of employment or otherwise review the financial standing of the Subscriber; and it is further agreed that the Company and the Placement Agent, in their sole discretion, reserve the unrestricted right, without further documentation or agreement on the part of the Subscriber, to reject or limit any subscription, to accept subscriptions for fractional shares of Common Stock and to close the Offering to the Subscriber at any time and that the Company will issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent with respect to such Common Stock.
 
1.13             The Subscriber hereby represents that the address of the Subscriber furnished by Subscriber on the signature page hereof is the Subscriber's principal residence if Subscriber is an individual or its principal business address if it is a corporation or other entity.
 
1.14             The Subscriber represents that the Subscriber has full power and authority (corporate, statutory and otherwise) to execute and deliver this Agreement and to purchase the Units. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Subscriber, enforceable against the Subscriber in accordance with its terms.
 
1.15             If the Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust, employee benefit plan, individual retirement account, Keogh Plan, or other tax-exempt entity, it is authorized and qualified to invest in the Company and the person signing this Agreement on behalf of such entity has been duly authorized by such entity to do so.

 
 

 

1.16             The Subscriber acknowledges that at such time, if ever, as the Common Stock, Warrants and the Warrant Shares are registered (as such term is defined in Article 5 hereof), sales of the Common Stock, Warrants and Warrant Shares will be subject to state securities laws.
 
1.17            (a)        The Subscriber agrees not to issue any public statement with respect to the Subscriber's investment or proposed investment in the Company or the terms of any agreement or covenant between them and the Company without the Company's prior written consent, except such disclosures as may be required under applicable law or under any applicable order, rule or regulation.
 
(b)         The Company agrees not to disclose the names, addresses or any other information about the Subscribers, except as required by law; provided, that the Company may use the name of the Subscriber for any offering or in any registration statement filed pursuant to Article 5 in which the Subscriber's Common Stock is included.
 
1.18             The Subscriber understands that the Units are being offered and sold in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws and that the Company and the principals and controlling persons thereof are relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments, and understandings set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the undersigned's suitability to acquire Units.
 
1.19             The Subscriber agrees to hold the Company and its directors, officers, employees, affiliates, controlling persons and agents and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns harmless and to indemnify them against all liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by them as a result of (a) any sale or distribution of the Common Stock, Warrant Shares, or Warrants by the Subscriber in violation of the. Securities Act or any applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws; or (b) any false representation or warranty or any breach or failure by the Subscriber to comply with any covenant made by the Subscriber in this Agreement or any other document furnished by the Subscriber to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction. To the best of the Purchaser’s knowledge, neither the Purchaser nor any person providing funds to the Purchaser:  (i) is under investigation by any governmental authority for, or has been charged with, or convicted of, money laundering, drug trafficking, terrorist related activities, any crimes which in the United States would be predicate crimes to money laundering, or any violation of any Anti-Money Laundering Laws (as hereinafter defined); (ii) has been assessed civil or criminal penalties under any Anti-Money Laundering Laws; or (iii) has had any of its funds seized or forfeited in any action under any Anti-Money Laundering Laws. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “Anti-Money Laundering Laws” shall mean laws, regulations and sanctions, state and federal, criminal and civil, that: (i) limit the use of and/or seek the forfeiture of proceeds from illegal transactions; (ii) limit commercial transactions with designated countries or individuals believed to be terrorists, narcotics dealers or otherwise engaged in activities contrary to the interests of the United States; (iii) require identification and documentation of the parties with whom a Financial Institution conducts business; or (iv) are designed to disrupt the flow of funds to terrorist organizations. Such laws, regulations and sanctions shall be deemed to include the USA Patriot Act of 2001, Pub. L. No. 107-56 (the “Patriot Act”), the Bank Secrecy Act, 31 U.S.C. Section 5311 et. seq. (the “Bank Secrecy Act”), the Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. Appendix, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C.

3.           TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION
 
3.1              The Company is offering the Units through Newbridge Securities Corporation, as placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) on an “all or none basis” with respect to the initial 22 Units (the “Minimum Offering”) and thereafter, on a “best efforts” basis until all of the Units (including up to 5 over-allotment Units, the “Additional Units”) are sold (the “Maximum Offering”) or the Offering period terminates, whichever occurs first.  The initial closing may not be held until such time as (i) subscriptions for the Minimum Offering have been received, and (ii) the Company has entered into a definitive agreement (the “Definitive Reverse Merger Agreement”) setting forth the terms under which it will merge into a public company or become a wholly-owned subsidiary of a public company (the “Reverse Merger”).  If the initial closing is not held by February 28, 2009 all subscription proceeds will be returned to the subscribers without interest or deduction and the Offering will terminate.

 
 

 

3.2              Unless terminated earlier in the Company’s and the Placement Agent’s discretion, the Offering Period will expire on February 28, 2009, provided, however, if the Minimum Offering is closed on or before February 28, 2009, the termination date may be extended by up to an additional 30 days in the Company’s and the Placement Agent’s discretion, without notice to the investors (the “Termination Date”). Pending the closing of the Minimum Offering all subscription proceeds will be held in escrow at U.S. Bank National Association. Subscriptions for Units may not be revoked once tendered, except in accordance with certain state laws.
 
3.3              Following each closing the net proceeds therefrom will remain in escrow (“Bank Escrow”) until such time as the Company has completed the Reverse Merger. In the event that the Company does not complete the Reverse Merger before March 31, 2009, each investor’s entire investment shall be returned without interest or deduction by May 30, 2009. The Company has agreed in the event of such distribution, any amounts previously paid to the Placement Agent as commissions will be repaid by the Company and added to the Bank Escrow.
 
3.4              This Offering can be withdrawn at any time before closing and is specifically made subject to the terms described in this Memorandum.  The Company reserves the right to reject any subscription, in whole or in part, or to allocate to any prospective investor less than the number of securities subscribed for.  The minimum investment is $45,000 (1 Unit), although the Company and the Placement Agent may, in their discretion, accept subscriptions for a lesser amount.
 
3.5              After the initial closing of the Minimum Offering the Company may conduct one or more subsequent closings covering additional Units up to the Maximum Offering, but not later than Termination Date.
 
4.           CONDITIONS TO OBLIGATIONS OF THE SUBSCRIBERS
 
4.1             The Subscriber's obligation to purchase the Units at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment on or prior to such Closing of the following conditions, which conditions may be waived at the option of each Subscriber to the extent permitted by law:

(a)            Use its best reasonable efforts to (i) cause such registration statement to become effective, and (ii) cause such registration statement to remain effective until the earliest to occur of (A) such date as the sellers of Registrable Securities (the "Selling Holders") have completed the distribution described in the registration statement and (B) such time that all of such Registrable Securities are no longer, by reason of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, required to be registered for the sale thereof by such Holders.

(b)            Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement, and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement, as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement.
 
(c)            Furnish to the Selling Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus as amended or supplemented from time to time, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.

(e)            In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Selling Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.
 
(f)             Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, (i) when the registration statement or any post-effective amendment and supplement thereto has become effective; (ii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order or the initiation of proceedings for that purpose (in which event the Company shall make every effort to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending effectiveness of the registration statement at the earliest possible time or prevent the entry thereof); (iii) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and (iv) of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.
 
(g)            Cause all such Registrable Securities registered hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange or quotation service on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted.
 
(h)            Provide a transfer agent for all Registrable. Securities registered pursuant hereunder and CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration.

(j)              Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

 
 

 

(k)             If the offering is underwritten and at the request of any Selling Holder, use its best reasonable efforts to furnish on the date that Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale pursuant to such registration: (i) opinions dated such date of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriters and the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities so delivered, respectively, to the effect that such registration statement has become effective under the Securities Act and such Registrable Securities are freely tradable, and covering such other matters as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer's counsel delivered to underwriters and transfer agents in underwritten public offerings and (ii) a letter dated such date from the independent public accountants who have certified the financial statements of the Company included in the registration statement or the prospectus, covering such matters as are customarily covered in accountants' letters delivered to underwriters in underwritten public offerings.
 
5.4              Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Article 5 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any Selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder, the Registrable Securities held by the Holder, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be reasonably required by the Company to effect the registration of such Holder's Registrable Securities.
 
5.5              Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear and pay all registration expenses incurred in connection with any registration, filing or qualification of Registrable Securities with respect to registration pursuant to Section 5.2 for each Holder, but excluding (i) legal expenses of the Holders and (ii) underwriting discounts and commissions relating to Registrable Securities.
 
5.6              Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Article.
 
5.7              Indemnification. In the event that any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Article 5:

 
 

 

(a)            To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation"): (i) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.7(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person.
 
(b)            To the extent permitted by law, each Selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.7(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.7(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, that, in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 5.7(b) exceed the greater of the cash value of the (i) gross proceeds from the Offering received by such Holder or (ii) such Holder's investment pursuant to this Agreement as set forth on the signature page attached hereto.

 
 

 

(c)            Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5.7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 5.7, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the indemnifying party and approved by the indemnified party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 5.7, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 5.7.
 
(d)            If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.7 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
 
(e)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in an underwriting agreement entered into in connection with an underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in such underwriting agreement shall control.
 
(f)            The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 5.7 shall survive the completion of the Offering.
 
5.8              Permitted Transferees. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities granted to the Holders by the Company under this Article 5 may be assigned in full by a Holder in connection with a transfer by such Holder of its Registrable Securities, to (a) any partner or retired partner of a Holder that is a partnership, or (b) any family member or trust for the benefit of any individual Holder, provided that (i) such Holder gives prior written notice to the Company; (ii) such transferee agrees to comply with the terms and provisions of this Agreement; (iii) such transfer is otherwise in compliance with this Agreement; and (iv) such transfer is otherwise effected in accordance with applicable securities laws. Except as specifically permitted by this Section 5.8, the rights of a Holder with respect to Registrable Securities as set out herein shall not be transferable to any other person, and any attempted transfer shall cause all rights of such Holder therein to be forfeited.
