Gentlemen:
The undersigned hereby tenders this subscription for the purchase of 750,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Securities") of Black Mountain Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") at a price of $.10 per share. This subscription is irrevocable and unconditional. By execution below, the undersigned acknowledges that the Company is relying upon the accuracy and completeness of representations contained herein in complying with their obligations under applicable securities laws.
1. The undersigned acknowledges and represents as follows:
(a) That the undersigned is in a financial position to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and is able to bear the economic risk and withstand a complete loss of the undersigned's investment in the Securities;
(b) That the undersigned has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the undersigned is capable of reaching and interpreting financial statements and evaluating the merits and risk of an investment in the Securities and has the net worth to undertake such risks;
(c) That the undersigned has obtained, to the extent the undersigned deems necessary, the undersigned's own personal professional advice with respect to the risks inherent in the investment in the securities, and the suitability of an investment in the Securities in light of the undersigned's financial condition and investment needs.
(d) That the undersigned believes that an investment in the Securities is suitable for the undersigned based upon the undersigned's investment objectives and financial needs, and the undersigned has adequate means for providing for the undersigned's current financial needs and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity of investment with respect to the Securities;
(e) That the undersigned has been given access to full and complete information regarding the Company and has utilized such access to the undersigned's satisfaction for the purpose of obtaining such information regarding the Company as the undersigned has reasonably requested; and, particularly, the undersigned has been given reasonable opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and to obtain any additional information, to the extent reasonably available;
(f) That the undersigned recognizes that the Company has limited operating history and that the Securities as an investment involve a high degree of risk, including but not limited to the risk of economic losses from operations of the Company;
(g) That the undersigned realizes that (i) the purchase of the Securities is a long-term investment; (ii) the purchaser of the Securities must bear the economic risk of investment for an indefinite period of time because the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") or under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, the Securities cannot be resold unless they are subsequently registered under said laws or exemptions from such registrations are available; (iii) the securities are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and are subject to restrictions on transfer imposed by or on account of federal and state securities laws, and the undersigned may be unable to liquidate the undersigned's investment in the event of an emergency, or pledge the Securities as collateral for a loan; and (iv) the transferability of the Securities is restricted and (a) requires conformity with the restrictions contained in Paragraphs 2 and 3 below and (b) legends will be placed on the certificate(s) representing the Securities referring to the applicable restrictions on transferability; and
(h) The undersigned has carefully reviewed and understands the various risks of an investment in the Company and can afford to bear the risks of such an investment.
(i) That the undersigned certifies, under penalties of perjury, that the undersigned is NOT subject to the backup withholding provisions of Section 3406(a)(i)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code. (Please note: You are subject to backup withholding if (i) you fail to furnish your Social Security Number or Taxpayer Identification Number herein, (ii) the Internal Revenue Services notifies the Company that you furnished an incorrect Social Security Number or Taxpayer Identification Number, (iii) you are notified that you are subject to backup withholding, or (iv) you failed to certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or you fail to certify your Social Security Number or Taxpayer Identification Number.)
(j) That a legend may be placed on any certificate representing the Securities substantially to the following effect:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. SUCH SECURITIES CAN NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT IN CONFORMITY WITH THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, WHICH CONFORMITY MUST BE ESTABLISHED TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE COMPANY.
2. The undersigned has been advised that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or applicable state securities laws and that the Securities are being offered and sold pursuant to exemptions from such laws and that the Company's reliance upon such exemptions is predicated in part on the undersigned's representations as contained herein. The undersigned represents, warrants and agrees that the Securities are being acquired by the undersigned solely for the undersigned's own account, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The undersigned has no agreement or other arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or pledge any part of the Securities or which would guarantee the undersigned of any profit or against any loss with respect to the Securities; and the undersigned has no plans to enter into any such agreement or arrangement. The undersigned further represents that the undersigned's financial condition is such that he or it is not under any present necessity or constraint to dispose of such Securities to satisfy any existing or contemplated debt or undertaking. The undersigned is aware that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a purchase of such securities with an intent to resell by reason of any foreseeable specific contingency or anticipated change in market value, or any change in the condition of the Company, or in connection with a contemplated liquidation settlement of any loan obtained for the acquisition of such securities and for which such securities were pledged, would represent an intent inconsistent with the representations set forth above. The undersigned further represents and agrees that if, contrary to the foregoing intentions, the undersigned should later desire to dispose of or transfer any of such securities any of such securities in any manner, the undersigned shall not do so without first obtaining (i) the opinion of counsel to the Company that such proposed disposition or transfer may be lawfully made without the registration of such Securities pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as then amended, and applicable state securities laws, or (ii) such registration has been completed and is currently in effect.
3. The undersigned represents and warrants that the undersigned is a bona fide resident of, is domiciled in and received the offer and made the decision to invest in the Securities in the state set forth on the signature page hereof, and the Securities are being purchased by the undersigned in the undersigned's name solely for the undersigned's own beneficial interest and not as nominee for, or on behalf of, or for the beneficial interest of, or with the intention to transfer to, any other person, trust or organization, except as specifically set forth in Paragraph of this Subscription Agreement and Letter of Investment Intent.
