I.
|
SUBSCRIPTION FOR UNITS AND
REPRESENTATIONS BY AND COVENANTS OF
SUBSCRIBER
|
1.1. Subscription for Units.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Subscriber
hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company such aggregate
amount of Units as is set forth upon the signature page hereof; and the Company
agrees to sell such Units to the Subscriber for said purchase price subject to
the Company’s right to sell to the Subscriber such lesser number of Units as the
Company may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or desirable. The purchase price is payable by
certified or bank check made payable to “Noble Medical Technologies, Inc.” and
delivered contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Subscription
Agreement to the Company’s address set forth above.
1.2. Reliance on Exemptions. The
Subscriber acknowledges that this Offering has not been reviewed by the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
or any state agency because of the Company’s representations that this is
intended to be a nonpublic offering exempt from the registration requirements of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933
Act”) and state securities laws. The Subscriber understands that the
Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Subscriber’s
compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments
and understandings of the Subscriber set forth herein in order to determine the
availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Subscriber to acquire
the Units.
1.3. Investment Purpose. The
Subscriber represents that the Shares comprising the Units (the “Securities”)
are being purchased for his or her own account, for investment purposes only and
not for distribution or resale to others in contravention of the registration
requirements of the 1933 Act. The Subscriber agrees that it will
not
1
sell or
otherwise transfer the Securities unless they are registered under the 1933 Act
or unless an exemption from such registration is available.
1.4. Accredited Investor. The
Subscriber represents and warrants that he or she is an “accredited investor” as
such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act,
as indicated by its responses to the Questionnaire, and that it is able to bear
the economic risk of any investment in the Units. The Subscriber further
represents and warrants that the information furnished in the Questionnaire is
accurate and complete in all material respects.
1.5. RISK OF INVESTMENT. THE SUBSCRIBER
RECOGNIZES THAT THE PURCHASE OF THE UNITS INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK
INCLUDING, WITHOUT
2
1.6. LIMITATION,
ANY AND ALL RISKS DISCUSSED IN THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT. AN
INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY AND THE UNITS MAY RESULT IN THE LOSS OF A SUBSCRIBER’S
ENTIRE INVESTMENT.
(a) Risk of Loss of
Investment. An investment in the Company and the Units offered
hereby involve a high degree of risk. An investment in the Units is
suitable only for investors who can bear a loss of their entire
investment.
(b) Value of Shares is
Speculative. The terms of this offering have been determined
arbitrarily by the Company. There is no relationship between such
terms and the Company’s assets, earnings, book value and/or any other objective
criteria of value.
(c) Dependence on Net Proceeds;
No Minimum Offering. The Company is wholly dependent upon the
net proceeds of this Offering to fund its operations, as more specifically
described elsewhere in this Subscription Agreement. There is no commitment by
any person to purchase Units and there is no assurance that any number of Units
will be sold. Additionally, there is no minimum amount of funds that
are required to be raised in order for the Company to accept subscriptions
received from investors and the Company’s may terminate this Offering prior to
the expiration of the Offering Period. There is no assurance that the Company
will sell a sufficient number of Units in this Offering on a timely basis or
that the net proceeds after payment of debts and other obligations will be
adequate for the Company’s needs.
(d) Need for Additional Capital;
Additional Private Placement. The net proceeds raised by the
Company from this Offering will be used immediately to fund the Company’s
current operations. The Company will therefore require significant additional
financing shortly after this Offering, regardless of the net proceeds received,
in order to satisfy its cash requirements. Upon completion of this offering, the
Company intends to affect a registration on Form SB-2, become a publicly traded
entity and seek to raise additional funds in private placement transactions.
However, there is no assurance that it will be able to do so in a timely manner
or on terms that will enable it to enter its proposed business on a reasonable
basis.
(e) Restrictions on
Resale. The Units and the Shares, are “restricted” securities
and may not be resold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an effective
registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act and applicable state
or “blue sky” laws.
(f) No Operating History;
History of Losses or Nominal Income; Development Stage
Entity. The Company not commenced operations. To
date and since inception, the Company has not generated any
revenues. The Company expects to incur substantial losses for the
foreseeable future and has no operating history on which the Company can
evaluate its potential for future success. The Company is a
developmental stage entity. To evaluate the Company, investors should
evaluate the Company in light of the expenses, delays, uncertainties, and
complications typically encountered by early-stage development businesses, many
of which are beyond the Company’s control. Early-stage development
businesses commonly face risks such as the following:
·
|
lack of sufficient
capital;
|
·
|
unanticipated problems, delays,
and expenses relating to product development and
implementation;
|
·
|
lack of intellectual
property;
|
·
|
licensing and marketing
difficulties;
|
·
|
competition;
|
·
|
technological changes;
and
|
·
|
uncertain market acceptance of
products and services.
|
(g) Dependence upon the
Company’s Sole Officer and Director. The
Company is wholly dependent upon Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, currently the sole officer
and director of the Company, for the operations and success of the
Company. The loss of his services would have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s business,
3
(h) financial
condition and results of operations. The Company does not have an
employment agreement with Xxxxx Xxxxxxx who is expected to devote only a portion
of his working time to the affairs of the Company.
(i) Capital Structure of the
Company. The following sets forth the capital structure of the
Company prior to the sale of any Securities in this Offering.
(i) The
Company has twenty one million (21,000,000) authorized shares of capital stock
consisting of (A) twenty million (20,000,000) shares of Common Stock and one
million (1,000,000) shares of blank check preferred stock.
(ii) The
Company has 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as
follows:
(A) Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx – 3,920,000;
and
(B) Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxx – 80,000
Shares.
Xx.
Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx may reallocate a portion of his shares in the
future.
(iii) The
Company has no other securities currently issued and outstanding and there are
no warrants, options or other securities outstanding that are convertible into
or exercisable for any securities of the Company.
1.6 Summary of Proposed
Business. The Company intends to
develop, manufacture and market its “multi-lead retractable console” for
electrocardiogram (“EKG”) equipment which it believes will be accepted by the
market as it will save medical technician’s time in attaching the multiple leads
necessary to a patient in situations where time can be critical to the medical
outcome. The Company will secure office space, hire necessary
personnel, further develop the design for its product, consider and possibly
apply for patent protection, either manufacture or arrange for the manufacture
of its product, and commence its marketing efforts. There is no assurance that
the Company will be successful in these endeavors or that if accomplishes all of
these steps it will be able to operate profitably. No assurance is
given that the Company will be granted a patent if it chooses to apply for one,
that any such patent will offer the Company meaningful against infringement or
that such patent would not be found to infringe upon patents granted by others.
Based on management’s personal experience, the Company believes that its product
is a legitimate business opportunity for the Company and its
shareholders.
