4.05 Purchase and Sale of Stock. The Buyer and Seller agree and understand that the consummation of this Agreement including the purchase, sale and exchange of the shares of CBD Stock and Kibush Stock as contemplated hereby, constitutes the offer and sale of securities under the Securities Act and applicable state statutes. The Buyer and Seller agree such transactions shall be consummated in reliance on exemptions from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of such statutes which depend, among other items, on the circumstances under which such securities are acquired.
(a) In order to provide documentation for reliance upon exemptions from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements for such transactions, the signing of this Agreement and the delivery of appropriate separate representations, including the “suitability letter” attached hereto as Exhibit “A” shall constitute the parties acceptance of, and concurrence in, the following representations and warranties:
(i) Seller acknowledges that neither the SEC nor the securities commission of any state or other federal agency has made any determination as to the merits of acquiring the shares of Common Stock, and that this transaction involves certain risks.
-9- |
(ii) Seller has received and read the Agreement and understand the risks related to the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated.
(iii) Seller has such knowledge and experience in business and financial matters that it can evaluate each business.
(iv) Seller has been provided with copies of all materials and information requested by Buyer or their representatives, including any information requested to verify any information furnished (to the extent such information is available or can be obtained without unreasonable effort or expense), and the parties have been provided the opportunity for direct communication regarding the transactions contemplated hereby.
(v) All information which Seller has provided to the Buyer or their representatives concerning their suitability and intent to hold shares in Kibush Stock following the transactions contemplated hereby is complete, accurate, and correct.
(vi) Seller has not offered or sold any securities of the Buyer or interest in this Agreement and has no present intention of dividing the shares of Kibush Stock to be received or the rights under this Agreement with others or of reselling or otherwise disposing of any portion of such stock or rights, either currently or after the passage of a fixed or determinable period of time or on the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any predetermined event or circumstance.
(vii) Seller understand that the shares of Kibush Stock have not been registered, but are being acquired by reason of a specific exemption under the Securities Act as well as under certain state statutes for transactions not involving any public offering and that any disposition of the subject shares of Kibush Stock may, under certain circumstances, be inconsistent with this exemption and may make Seller an “underwriter,” within the meaning of the Securities Act. It is understood that the definition of “underwriter” focuses upon the concept of “distribution” and that any subsequent disposition of the subject shares of Kibush Stock can only be effected in transactions which are not considered distributions. Generally, the term “distribution” is considered synonymous with “public offering” or any other offer or sale involving general solicitation or general advertising. Under present law, in determining whether a distribution occurs when securities are sold into the public market, under certain circumstances one must consider the availability of public information regarding the issuer, a holding period for the securities sufficient to assure that the persons desiring to sell the securities without registration first bear the economic risk of their investment, and a limitation on the number of securities which the stockholder is permitted to sell and on the manner of sale, thereby reducing the potential impact of the sale on the trading markets. These criteria are set forth specifically in rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.
-10- |
(viii) Seller acknowledges that the shares of Kibush Stock must be held and may not be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of for value unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Buyer is not under any obligation to register the shares of Kibush Stock under the Securities Act, except as set forth in this Agreement. The Buyer is not under any obligation to make rule 144 available, except as may be expressly agreed to by it in writing in this Agreement, and in the event rule 144 is not available, or some other disclosure exemption may be required before Seller can sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of such shares of Kibush Stock without registration under the Securities Act. The Buyer’s registrar and transfer agent will maintain a stop transfer order against the registration or transfer of the shares of Kibush Stock, and the certificates representing the shares of Kibush Stock will bear a legend in substantially the following form so restricting the sale of such securities:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) AND ARE “RESTRICTED SECURITIES” WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED WITHOUT COMPLYING WITH RULE 144 IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION OR OTHER COMPLIANCE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.
(ix) The Buyer may refuse to register further transfers or resales of the shares of Kibush Stock in the absence of compliance with rule 144 unless the Seller furnish the Buyer with a “no-action” or interpretive letter from the SEC or an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Buyer stating that the transfer is proper. Further, unless such letter or opinion states that the shares of Kibush Stock are free of any restrictions under the Securities Act, the Buyer may refuse to transfer the securities to any transferee who does not furnish in writing to the Buyer the same representations and agree to the same conditions with respect to such shares of Kibush Stock as set forth herein. The Buyer may also refuse to transfer the shares of Kibush Stock if any circumstances are present reasonably indicating that the transferee’s representations are not accurate.
(b) In connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the Buyer and Seller shall each file, with the assistance of the other and their respective legal counsel, such notices, applications, reports, or other instruments as may be deemed by them to be necessary or appropriate in an effort to document reliance on such exemptions, and the appropriate regulatory authority in the states where Buyer reside unless an exemption requiring no filing is available in such jurisdictions, all to the extent and in the manner as may be deemed by such parties to be appropriate.
(c) In order to more fully document reliance on the exemptions as provided herein, the Buyer and Seller shall execute and deliver to the other, at or prior to the closing, such further letters of representation, acknowledgment, suitability, or the like as the Buyer or Seller (or their respective counsel) may reasonably request in connection with reliance on exemptions from registration under such securities laws including but not limited to an investment letter.
(d) The Buyer and Seller acknowledge that the basis for relying on exemptions from registration or qualifications are factual, depending on the conduct of the various parties, and that no legal opinion or other assurance will be required or given to the effect that the transactions contemplated hereby are in fact exempt from registration or qualification.
-11- |
4.06 Compliance with Rule 144.
(a) The Buyer will use its best efforts to at all times satisfy the current public information requirements of rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act so that its shareholders can sell restricted securities that have been held for one year or more or such other restricted period as required by rule 144 as it is from time to time amended. This covenant shall survive the closing of this Agreement.
(b) Upon being informed in writing by any person holding restricted stock sold pursuant to this Agreement that such person intends to sell any shares under rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (including any rule adopted in substitution or replacement thereof), the Buyer will certify in writing to such person that it is compliance with rule 144 current public information requirement to enable such person to sell such person’s restricted stock under rule 144, as may be applicable under the circumstances.
(c) If any certificate representing any such restricted stock is presented to the Buyer’s transfer agent for registration or transfer in connection with any sales theretofore made under rule 144, provided such certificate is duly endorsed for transfer by the appropriate person(s) or accompanied by a separate stock power duly executed by the appropriate person(s) in each case with reasonable assurances that such endorsements are genuine and effective, and is accompanied by an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Buyer and its counsel that such transfer has complied with the requirements of rule 144, as the case may be, the Buyer will promptly instruct its transfer agent to register such transfer and to issue one or more new certificates representing such shares to the transferee and, if appropriate under the provisions of rule 144, as the case may be, free of any stop transfer order or restrictive legend.
4.07 Public Statements. Subject to their respective legal obligations (including requirements of stock exchanges and other similar regulatory bodies), the Seller and Buyer shall consult with one another, and use reasonable best efforts to agree upon the text of any press release, before issuing any such press release or otherwise making public statements with respect to the transactions and in making any filing with any federal or state governmental or regulatory agency or with any securities exchange with respect thereto.
4.08 No Representation Regarding Tax Treatment. No representation or warranty is being made by any party to any other regarding the treatment of this transaction for federal or state income taxation. Each party has relied exclusively on its own legal, accounting, and other tax adviser regarding the treatment of this transaction for federal and state income taxes and on no representation, warranty, or assurance from any other party or such other party’s legal, accounting, or other adviser.
4.09 Expenses of Sale. The Buyer will pay all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder, including but not limited to the fees and expenses of its counsel and accountants, and the cost of qualifying the offer and sale of the shares of Kibush Stock in various jurisdictions or obtaining an exemption therefrom.

INVESTMENT LETTER
Re: | Purchase of Shares of Common Stock of Kibush Capital Corp. |
Gentlemen:
In connection with the acquisition by the undersigned of shares of Common Stock of Kibush Capital Corp. (the “Common Stock”), the undersigned represents that the shares of Common Stock are being acquired without a view to, or for, resale in connection with any distribution of such shares of Common Stock or any interest therein without registration or other compliance under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and that the undersigned has no direct or indirect participation in any such undertaking or in the underwriting of such an undertaking.
The undersigned understands that the shares of Common Stock have not been registered, but are being acquired by reason of a specific exemption under the Securities Act as well as under certain state statutes for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering and that any disposition of the subject shares of Common Stock may, under certain circumstances, be inconsistent with this exemption and may make the undersigned an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. It is understood that the definition of an “underwriter” focuses on the concept of “distribution” and that any subsequent disposition of the subject shares of Common Stock can only be effected in transactions which are not considered distributions. Generally, the term “distribution” is considered synonymous with “public offering” or any other offer or sale involving general solicitation or general advertising. Under present law, in determining whether a distribution occurs when securities are sold into the public market, under certain circumstances one must consider the availability of public information regarding the issuer, a holding period for the securities sufficient to assure that the persons desiring to sell the securities without registration first bear the economic risk of their investment, and a limitation on the number of securities which the stockholder is permitted to sell and on the manner of sale, thereby reducing the potential impact of the sale on the trading markets. These criteria are set forth specifically in rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.
Page Two
The undersigned acknowledges that the shares of Common Stock must be held and may not be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of for value unless it is subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available; the issuer is under no obligation to register the shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act or under section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except as may be expressly agreed to by it in writing; if rule 144 is available, and no assurance is given that it will be, initially only routine sales of such shares of Common Stock in limited amounts can be made in reliance on rule 144 in accordance with the terms and conditions of that rule; the issuer is under no obligation to the undersigned to make rule 144 available, except as may be expressly agreed to by it in writing; in the event rule 144 is not available, compliance with regulation A or some other exemption may be required before the undersigned can sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of such shares of Common Stock without registration under the Securities Act; the issuer’s registrar and transfer agent will maintain a stop transfer order against the registration of transfer of the shares of Common Stock will bear a legend in substantially the following form so restricting the sale of such shares of Common Stock.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND ARE “RESTRICTED SECURITIES” WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED WITHOUT COMPLYING WITH RULE 144 IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION OR OTHER COMPLIANCE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.
The issuer may refuse to register transfer of the shares of Common Stock in the absence of compliance with rule 144 unless the undersigned furnishes the issuer with a “no-action” or interpretative letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission or an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the issuer stating that the transfer is proper; further, unless such letter or opinion states that the shares of Common Stock are free of any restrictions under the Securities Act, the issuer may refuse to transfer the shares of Common Stock to any transferee who does not furnish in writing to the issuer the same representations and agree to the same conditions with respect to such shares of Common Stock as are set forth herein. The issuer may also refuse to transfer the shares of Common Stock if any circumstances are present reasonably indicating that the transferee’s representations are not accurate.
