CODIAGNOSTICS, LTD
WHEREAS, Co-Diagnostics, Inc., a Utah corporation (the “Company”), and CoDiagnostics, Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the Turks and Caicos Islands (“Investor”) desire to enter into an agreement for the purchase by Investor of shares of common stock of the Company;
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Subscription Agreement (this “Agreement”), the Company agrees to sell, and Investor agrees to purchase, shares of common stock, no par value per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”) according to the following terms and conditions:
1. Acquisition of Securities.
(a) Investor hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase a total of Fifteen Million (15,000,000) shares of the Company Common Stock (the “Securities”) at a purchase price of $.08333 per share, or aggregate consideration of One Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000) (the “Purchase Price”).
(b) Investor shall pay the Purchase Price in periodic installments, without interest, according to the funding schedule (the “Funding Schedule”) set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto, which is incorporated as if fully set forth herein by this reference. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, no later than each date for funding as indicated on the Funding Schedule (each such date being a “Funding Date”), Investor shall pay, by wire transfer according to instructions separately provided by the Company or delivery of a cashier’s check representing immediately available funds, the funding amount corresponding to such Funding Date as set forth on the Funding Schedule (each such payment a “Payment”).
2. Representations and Warranties of Investor. Investor makes the following representations and warranties, with the intent that they be relied upon by the Company and each officer, director, employee and agent of the Company in determining Investor’s suitability as a purchaser of the Securities. Investor agrees that such representations and warranties shall survive the purchase of the Securities. By signing this Agreement, Investor represents that Investor has read and acknowledged the representations set forth in this Section 2 . If more than one person is signing this Agreement, each representation and warranty shall be a joint and several representation or warranty of each person.
1 |
(a) Investor, the sole and true party in interest, is acquiring the Securities for Investor’s own account for investment, is not purchasing the Securities for the benefit of any other person, and has no present intention of holding or managing the Securities with others or of selling, distributing or otherwise disposing of any portion of the Securities.
(b) Investor has reviewed the definition of an “accredited investor” attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C and Investor qualifies as an “accredited investor” under one or more components of that definition and that through all Funding Dates as provided on the Funding Schedule, Investor and each equity owner of Investor shall continue to be qualified as an “accredited investor.”
(c) Investor is aware that an investment in the Securities is highly speculative and subject to substantial risks, including the risk of loss of Investor’s entire investment in the Company. Investor has adequate means of providing for Investor’s current needs and possible contingencies, and is able to bear the high degree of economic risk of this investment, including, but not limited to, the possibility of the complete loss of Investor’s entire investment, the lack of a public market, and the limited transferability of the Securities, which may make the liquidation of this investment impossible for the indefinite future.
(d) Investor is experienced in the business of making private placement investments in private companies whose securities are illiquid, and has the knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and making an informed investment decision.
(e) Investor understands that the Securities will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws, in reliance upon exemptions from registration for certain private offerings. Investor understands and agrees that the Securities, or any interest therein, may not be resold or otherwise disposed of by Investor unless the Securities are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under all applicable state securities laws, unless an exemption from registration is available to Investor, and subject to Investor’s compliance with any contractual restrictions on Investor’s resales of the Securities. Further, Investor understands and acknowledges that only the Company can take register the Securities, that the Company has not agreed, and is under no obligation, to do so, and that the Company does not intend to do so in the foreseeable future.
(f) Investor acknowledges and represents that Investor (i) has received and reviewed a copy of certain materials, consisting of the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, and the risk factors related to the Company and an investment in the Securities contained in Exhibit B hereto, (ii) has been given a reasonable opportunity to review all documents, books and records of the Company pertaining to this investment, (iii) has been supplied with all additional information concerning the Company and the Securities that has been requested by Investor, (iv) has had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company or its representatives concerning this investment, (v) and that all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of Investor.
(g) Investor has received no representations, written or oral, from the Company or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents, other than those contained in this Agreement. In making Investor’s decision to purchase the Securities, Investor has relied solely upon Investor’s review of documents and information it has requested from the Company, this Agreement and independent investigations made by Investor or Investor’s representatives without assistance of the Company.
2 |
(h) Investor understands and agrees that the following restrictions and limitations are applicable to Investor’s purchases and resales, pledges, hypothecations or other transfers of the Securities:

RISK FACTORS
Risks Relating to Co-Diagnostics, Inc.
An investment in Co-Diagnostics, Inc. (the “Company”) has numerous risks. Some of those risks are discussed below.
We have a very limited operating history and are subject to the risks faced by early-stage companies.
We have essentially no operating history, and our predecessor-in-interest as to our assets and liabilities has only limited operating history. Our prospects for success must be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development. Our business plan calls for a capital intensive plan to identify, secure with contracts, prepare for certification, and secure approval of up to six potential carbon sequestration projects in third world countries. We may not be able to execute our plan with the capital anticipated by this offering and may need to seek additional capital, absent our receipt of which we may not be able to continue the business. Any subsequent capital raise could be dilutive to Investor.
We are not currently profitable, and our success and profitability will depend on our ability to implement our business plan.
Our growth and anticipated profitability will depend on our ability to (a) secure agreements with certain landowners and community partners; (b) create projects that are certifiable by international certification agencies; (c) locate and secure funding by large industrial companies in need of carbon credits to be in compliance with emission guidelines or find other sources of funding for planting of trees and plants to complete the creation of saleable carbon credits; (d) be able to sell or trade the resulting carbon credits produced in the projects created and certified by the Company; and (e) provide the landowners and communities with quality customer relations that result in continuing good will to further expand the reach of the Company in third world countries. In light of the rapidly evolving nature of the carbon credit industry and various evolving standards to be met our business and our limited operating history, we cannot assure you that we will become profitable or, if we do become profitable, that we will be able to sustain that profitability.
The price at which we are selling shares of our stock has been determined solely by us and is substantially higher than what was paid by some current shareholders.
The price per share to be sold in this offering has been determined solely by us and is substantially higher than the price paid by some current shareholders. Even though the current offering price is based on a number of factors, including our internal assessment of our business prospects and the perceived level of interest in our stock, the price does not bear any direct relationship to our earnings, book value, assets, revenue or other typical measure of financial performance or value. Because we have a limited operating history and no market exists for our stock, potential future offering prices of the shares should be considered highly uncertain and may lead to additional dilution.
13 |
Even if we are successful in growing rapidly, we may not be able to successfully manage the demands of that growth.
Our business plan anticipates significant growth in the future. We expect that rapid growth would create significant strains on our cash flows, management, and infrastructure. Even if we are successful in achieving the growth we hope to achieve, that growth may cause problems that we did not effectively anticipate or plan for, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We may not be able to attract the management team we will need to implement our business plans.
We may not be able to find or hire the kind of management team we need to implement our business plan. The market for top management talent is highly competitive. If we are unable to attract and hire competent management, it will likely have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We may not achieve our projections and forecasts.
The preliminary and introductory materials you received in connection with the investment contain forward-looking statements relating to matters such as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, new products, future plans, possible strategic alternatives, new business concepts, capital expenditures and similar matters. Statements including the words “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” or variation of such words and similar expressions are forward-looking statements. A variety of factors could cause our actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectation expressed in our forward-looking statements.
The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, development and results of our business include, but are not limited to, the following: our future ability to obtain low-cost, high quality content from our major network contract party or other sources for inclusion in our place-based satellite services; the reliability and affordability of our contract party that provides satellite transmission services, hardware and software for our place-based digital media services and products; changes in customer spending patterns as a consequence of general or specific economic factors influencing them; our ability to finance later stages of our capital intensive implementation of our satellite services out of ongoing cash flow; changes in technology that could make our system obsolete or cost-ineffective; changes in customer preferences and overall economic conditions; the impact of competition and pricing; and the ability to hire, train and retain management and employees.
14 |
An investment in the Securities may lead to adverse tax consequences.
The tax aspects of an investment in the Company are complicated, and you should have them reviewed by professional advisers familiar with your personal tax situation and with the tax laws and regulations applicable to corporations like the Company. The Company is not intended and should not be expected to provide any tax shelter. Further, a shareholder may incur tax liabilities under state or local income tax laws of certain jurisdictions in which we operate as well as the jurisdiction of a shareholder’s residence or domicile. These laws vary from one locale to another and, like federal income tax laws, are complex and subject to change. We urge you to consult with your own tax adviser concerning these matters.
No market exists for our stock and none is expected to develop.
Our stock offered in this offering has not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be resold unless and until such time as such shares are registered under applicable federal and state securities laws or unless an exemption from registration is available. Purchasers in this offering will not have the right to require us to register the shares. There is no public market for our stock, and none is expected develop. If, as a result of some change in circumstances arising from an event not presently contemplated, you wish to transfer or liquidate your interests, you may find no market for them. Additionally, we will require all investors to execute the Shareholders Agreement that will further restrict such investor’s ability to sell or transfer the Securities, or the value thereof if a sale or transfer is possible.
We may not be able to gain administrative approval to sell our products in developed countries.
Our products and technology are medical in nature and the success of our Business Plan depends on our ability to successfully gain approval by the administrative agencies charged with oversight of medical products in each country in which we sell our products. The cost of obtaining such approvals may be prohibitively expenses and we may not have the resources to pursue such approvals. We will not be able to generate sales of our products without such approvals and we have no guarantee that we will be able to receive such approvals.
