SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT AND INVESTMENT LETTER


Date: ____/____/201_
            D      M     Y

Dear Sir/Madam:

In connection with your offer and our subscription of (US$ ____________) in principal amount to purchase ____________________ Units (the “Units”) at a price of $0.05 per Unit, each comprised of one common share (a “Share”) of the GILLA INC., a Nevada Corporation (the “Company”) and a one half common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”), with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one Share of the Company at a price of $0.10 per Share until the date that is 6 months from the date of issuance.

The undersigned subscriber (the “Subscriber”) hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees with you that at the time of such offer and subscription and as of the date of this letter:

 
1.
I am over the age of twenty-one years.

 
2.
I have read and am familiar with the records of the Company, access to which has been afforded to me and which access has preceded the closing under this Agreement and this subscription to the Shares.

 
3.
The Shares to be acquired herein are solely for my account and for investment and I have no plan, intention, contract, understanding, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer to any person the Shares, or any portion thereof.

 
4.
I have sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investments generally and of this investment in the Shares in particular and am able to bear the economic risk of this investment with the full understanding that I can lose my entire investment.

 
5.
I am in a position with regard to the Company and its officers and directors which, based upon employment, family relationship and economic bargaining power, has enabled me and continues to enable me to obtain information from the Company and its affairs in order to evaluate the merits and risks of this investment in the Shares.  I acknowledge that the Company has made available to me and continues to make available to me the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the directors and executive officers of the Company and other persons acting on their behalf concerning the terms and conditions of the offer to me of the Shares and to obtain any additional information concerning the Company to the extent that the directors, executive officers and others possess such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense so that I can verify the accuracy of the information given to me at the time of the offer and my subscription to the Shares.  I acknowledge that I am aware that the Company is not current with its Securities and Exchange Commission filings and that the Company’s financial statements are not current.

 
6.
I understand that neither the Shares, nor the sale thereof to me has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or under any state securities laws.  I further understand that no registration statement has been filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission nor with any other regulatory authority and that, as a result, any benefit which might normally accrue to me by an impartial review of such a registration statement by the Securities and Exchange Commission or other regulatory authority will not be forthcoming.  I understand that I cannot sell the Shares to be issued to me by the Company unless such sale is registered under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws or exemptions from such registration become available.  In this connection I understand that the Company has advised its Transfer Agent that the Shares are "restricted securities" under the 1933 Act and that they may not be transferred by me to any person without the prior consent of the Company, which consent of the Company will require an opinion of my counsel to the effect that, in the event the Shares are not registered under the 1933 Act, any transfer as may be proposed by me must be entitled to an exemption from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act.  To this end, I acknowledge that a legend to the following effect will be placed upon the certificate representing the Shares and that the Transfer Agent has been advised of such facts:

THESE SHARES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY BE OFFERED AND SOLD ONLY IF REGISTERED PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE ACT OR IF AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER IS AVAILABLE, THE AVAILABILITY OF WHICH MUST BE ESTABLISHED TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE COMPANY.

I understand that the foregoing legend on my certificate for the Shares to be issued to me by the Company limits their value, including their value as collateral.

7.
The subscription made by this Subscription Agreement is subject to acceptance by the Company at its sole discretion, which acceptance shall be evidenced by the Company's signing and delivering to me at the address set forth on the signature page hereof a fully-executed counterpart of this Subscription Agreement.  In the event the Company shall reject this subscription, the subscription price for the Shares shall be refunded promptly to me without interest thereon.

 
8.
You have advised me that the Company is a Nevada corporation which has an authorized capital of 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0002 per share.  As of the date hereof there are approximately 29,477,766 Common Shares of the Company issued and outstanding and zero shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.  I understand that the Company has commitments to issue approximately 30,000,000 additional Common Shares upon closing of the acquisition of Snoke Canada Ltd.

You have further advised me that the subscription for the Shares is part of a private offering of Shares being offered by the Company in accordance with Regulation D, as promulgated under the 1933 Act.  This offering is for up to $500,000.00 in total gross subscriptions (the "Offering"), undertaken on a "self underwritten, best efforts" basis until the entire Offering is sold.  As such, the Company can make no representation as to the amount of subscriptions it may raise as part of the Offering and the failure of the Company to raise all or a significant portion of the aggregate proceeds of the Offering may have a negative impact on the Company's ability to successfully implement and develop its business plan.  Funds subscribed herein will not be placed in escrow.  This means that the Company can use my funds immediately upon acceptance of this subscription, regardless of the amount raised.

 
9.
The undersigned:  (1) is not listed in the Annex to the Executive Order No. 13224 of September 23, 2001 – Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons who Commit, Threaten to Commit or Support Terrorism (the “Executive Order”) or is otherwise subject to the provisions of the Executive Order; (2) is not listed on the “Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons” list maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) of the United States Department of the Treasury, as updated or amended from time to time, or any similar list issued by OFAC; and (3) does not have any property blocked, or subject to seizure, forfeiture or confiscation, by any order relating to terrorism or money laundering issued by the President, Attorney General, Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of the Treasury or any other U.S. State or Federal governmental official or entity (in any case, a “Restricted Party”).

 
10.
The funds used by the undersigned exclude any funds received or derived from a Restricted Party or from any person or entity involved in the violation of any U.S. State or Federal law relating to terrorism, including, without limitation:  (1) the Executive Order; (2) the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56; and (3) the Money Laundering Control Act of 1986, Public Law 99-570.

 
11.
I have had sufficiently ample time and opportunity to review any and all information pertaining to the Company, together my attorney, accountant, and tax adviser (collectively, the “Advisers”) and I have at my own volition determined to proceed with investment in the Shares on the basis of such advice from the Advisors or I have waived review by the Advisors following my own comprehensive assessment of all relevant facts and circumstances.  I am not relying on the Company or any of its employees or agents with respect to the legal, tax, economic or any related considerations pertaining to an investment in the Shares and I have only relied upon my own qualified knowledge or the advice of my Advisers in such regard.

 
12.
In evaluating the suitability of an investment in the Company, I have not relied upon any representation or other information (oral or written) other than as stated herein or as contained in writing in documents delivered to me by an authorized representative of the Company, or in answers furnished in writing to me or to my Advisers in response to questions delivered to the Company.

 
13.
I am unaware of, I am in no way relying on, and I did not become aware of the Shares through or as a result of, any form of general solicitation or general advertising including, without limitation, any article, notice, advertisement or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio and I am not subscribing for the Shares and did not become aware of the Shares through or as a result of any seminar or meeting to which I was invited by, or any solicitation of a subscription by, a person not previously known to me in connection with investments in securities generally.

 
14.
I am only acquiring the Shares solely for my own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or distribution thereof, in whole or in part.  I have no agreement or arrangement with any person to sell or transfer all or any part of the Shares and I have no plans to enter into any such agreement or arrangement.
 
 
 
2

 
 
 
 
15.
I have adequate means of providing for my current financial needs and foreseeable contingencies and I have no need for liquidity of my investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time.

 
16.
I am an “accredited investor” as defined under Rule 501 or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and I am familiar with the legal requirements to be an accredited investor, and I have completed Exhibit A attached hereto in such regard.

 
17.
I represent and warrant to the Company that if my investment is being made through a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other organization, (i) was not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares; (ii) it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the its organization; (iii) the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby is authorized by, and will not result in a violation of the charter or other organizational documents; (iv) I have full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and all other related agreements or certificates and to carry out the provisions hereof and thereof and to purchase and hold the Shares on behalf of the organization; (v) the execution and delivery of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary action of the organization; and (vi) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the organization.

18.
I acknowledge that any and all estimates or forward-looking or similar statements have been prepared by the Company in good faith but that the attainment of any such estimates or forward-looking or similar statements cannot be assured or guaranteed by the Company and therefore may not be relied upon in respect of any and all actual outcomes.

 
19.
I acknowledge that the Company will compensate authorized organizations with commissions related to Company introductions to investors.  Such commissions may be paid by the Company at closing of the investments in the Shares, a cash fee in amounts of up to 10% of the purchase price of the Shares and broker warrants in the amount of 8% of the Shares issued pursuant to the Offering.
