Section 2
2.1. Investor Representations and Warranties. The undersigned hereby
acknowledges, represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Company and the
Company's Management as follows:
(a) The undersigned is acquiring the common stock for his own
account, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to or for the resale,
distribution or fractionalization thereof, in whole or in part, and no other
person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in the common stock.
(b) The undersigned acknowledges his understanding that the
offering and sale of the common stock is intended to be exempt from registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), by virtue of Section
4(2) of the Act and the provisions of Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated
thereunder. In furtherance thereof, the undersigned represents and warrants to
and agrees with the Company and the Company's Management as follows:
(i) The undersigned has the financial ability to bear
the economic risk of his investment in the Company (including its possible
loss), has adequate means of providing for his current needs and personal
contingencies and has no need for liquidity with respect to his investment in
the Company.
(ii) No one has acted as his Purchaser Representative
in connection with evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the
Company in general and the suitability of the investment for the undersigned in
particular.
(iii) The undersigned has such knowledge and
experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the
merits and risks of an investment in the common stock and has obtained, in his
judgment, sufficient information from the Company's Management to evaluate the
merits and risks of an investment in the common stock.
(iv) The undersigned hereby reconfirms as
representations and warranties, as though fully set forth herein, each of the
statements and answers of the undersigned set forth in his Investor Suitability
Questionnaire.
(c) The undersigned:
(i) has been provided an opportunity to obtain any
additional information concerning the Offering, the Company and all other
information to the extent the Company or the Company's Management possess such
information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense;
(ii) has been given the opportunity to ask questions
of, and receive answers from, the Company's Management concerning the terms and
conditions of the Offering and other matters pertaining to this investment;
(iii) has determined that the common stock is a
suitable investment for him and that at this time he could bear a complete loss
of his investment.
(d) In making his decision to purchase the shares of common
stock herein subscribed for, the undersigned has relied solely upon independent
investigations made by him. The undersigned is not relying on the Company or the
Company's Management with respect to tax and other economic considerations
involved in this investment.
2
(e) The undersigned represents, warrants and agrees that he
will not sell or otherwise transfer the common stock without registration under
the Act or an exemption therefrom, and fully understands and agrees that he must
bear the economic risk of his investment for an indefinite period of time
because, among other reasons, the common stock has not been registered under the
Act or under the securities laws of certain states and, therefore, cannot be
resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless it is subsequently
registered under the Act and under applicable securities laws of such states or
an exemption from such registration is available. He understands that the
Company is under no obligation to register the shares of common stock on his
behalf or to assist him in complying with any exemption from such registration
under the Act. He also understands that sales or transfers of the shares of
common stock are further restricted by the provisions of state securities laws.
He further understands that the Company is not registered as an investment
Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, in reliance upon an exemption
from such registration.
(f) If the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, trust,
employee benefit plan, individual retirement account, Xxxxx plan, or other
tax-exempt entity, it is authorized and qualified to become a Member in, and
authorized to make its capital contribution to, the Company, and the person
signing this Agreement on behalf of such entity has been duly authorized by such
entity to do so.
(g) If the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, trust,
joint venture, employee benefit plan, individual retirement account, Xxxxx plan,
or other entity, whether tax-exempt or otherwise, it has not been formed for the
purpose of acquiring shares of common stock in the Company and to the best of
its knowledge, based on such investigations as the undersigned has deemed
appropriate, the value of all securities owned by the undersigned of all issuers
which would be investment companies (as defined under the Investment Company Act
of 1940), but for the fact that the outstanding securities (other than
short-term paper) of such companies are beneficially owned by not more than one
hundred persons and were not issued in a public offering, does not exceed ten
percent of the value of the undersigned's total assets.
(h) If the subscriber is an employee benefit plan (the
"Plan"), the undersigned fiduciaries of the Plan (i) acknowledge that they have
been informed of and understand the investment objectives and policies of, and
the investment strategies which may be pursued by, the Company; (ii) acknowledge
that they are aware of the provisions of Section 404 of ERISA relating to the
requirements for investment and diversification of the assets of employee
benefit plans and trusts subject to ERISA; (iii) represent that they have given
appropriate consideration to the facts and circumstances relevant to the Plan's
investment in the Company and have determined that such investment is reasonably
designed, as part of the Plan's portfolio, to further the purposes of the Plan;
(iv) represent that, taking into account the other investments made with the
assets of the Plan, and the diversification thereof, the Plan's investment in
the Company is consistent with the requirements of Section 404 and other
provisions of ERISA; and (v) represent that, taking into account the other
investments made with the assets of the Plan, the investment of assets of the
Plan in the Company is consistent with the cash flow requirements and funding
objectives of the Plan.
(i) No representations or warranties have been made to the
undersigned by the Company or the Company's Management.
(j) Any information which the undersigned has heretofore
furnished to the Company's Management with respect to his financial position and
business experience, including, without limitation, responses to his Investor
Suitability Questionnaire, is correct and complete as of the date of this
Agreement and if there should be any material change in such information prior
to his admission to the
3
Company as a Shareholder he will immediately furnish such revised or corrected
information to the Company's Management.
2.2. Investor Awareness. The undersigned acknowledges, represents,
agrees and is aware that:
(a) The Company's Management has exclusive control over the
Company's activities. The Company's Management will have the exclusive right to
control the Company's activities. You should purchase the shares of common stock
only if you are willing to entrust all aspects of the Company's Management. You
will have the right to obtain complete information regarding the Company's
business and financial condition and, if necessary, to xxx for an accounting.
Upon twenty business days written notice you may either inspect the Company's
books and records in person or the Company will send you the information you
require.
(d) Company's Management may not devote sufficient time on
Company business. The Company's Management will be engaged in other oil and gas
activities and other unrelated business ventures for their own account or for
the account of others during its term with the Company. Thus, there is a risk
that the Company's Management will not devote the necessary time to the
Company's business.
(c) No market for shares of common stock; restrictions on
transfer. If you invest in the shares of the common stock in the Company, then
you must assume the risks of an illiquid investment. The shares of common stock
cannot be readily liquidated, and there is no market for the sale of the shares
of common stock. Also, a sale of your shares of common stock could create
adverse tax and economic consequences for you.
The transferability of the shares of common stock is limited
by state and federal securities laws. Also, under the federal securities laws,
shares of common stock in the company are transferable only if they are
registered under the 1933 Act, which the Company's Management does not intend,
or there is an exemption.
(d) Your investment return may decrease. If all of the shares
of common stock in the Company offered are not sold.
Section 3
3.1. Indemnity. The undersigned hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, the Company's Management, and each other person, if any,
who controls or is controlled by any thereof, within the meaning of Section 15
of the Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense
whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all expenses whatsoever
reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any
litigation commenced or threatened or any claim whatsoever) arising out of or
based upon any false representation or warranty or breach or failure by the
undersigned herein or in any other document furnished by the undersigned to any
of the foregoing in connection with this transaction.
3.2. Modification. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof
shall be modified, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing
signed by the party against whom any waiver, change, discharge or termination is
sought.

hereto may be required, or may elect, to give to anyone interested hereunder

States mail letter box, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,

Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and
their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and
