INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT
PURCHASER: XXXXXXX HOLDINGS, LLC
ISSUER: AVENTURA HOLDINGS, INC. (Referred to herein as the "Company")
SECURITY: Common Stock, par value $.001
QUANTITY: 200,000,000 Shares
In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities of the Company,
the undersigned Purchaser represents to the Company the following:
(1) Investment. The Purchaser is aware of the Company's business affairs
-----------
and financial condition. The Purchaser is purchasing the Securities for
investment for its own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in
connection with, any "distribution" thereof within the meaning of the Securities
Act of 1933 (as Amended). These securities have not been registered under the
Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption
depends on, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent as
expressed herein. In this connection the Purchaser understands that, in view of
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the statutory basis for such
exemption may be unavailable if this representation was predicated solely upon a
present intention to hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains period
specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or
decrease in the market price of the Securities or for the period of one year or
any other fixed period in the future.
(2) Restrictions on Transfer Under Securities Act. The Purchaser further
-------------------------------------------------
acknowledges and understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely
unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or unless an
exemption from such registration is available. Moreover, the Purchaser
understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities.
In addition, the Purchaser understands that the certificate evidencing the
Securities will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the
Securities unless they are registered or unless the Company receives an opinion
of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not
required.
(3) Sales Under Rule 144. The Purchaser is aware of the adoption of Rule
------------------------
144 by the SEC promulgated under the Securities Act, which in substance permits
limited public resale of securities acquired in a non- public offering subject
to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including: (i) the availability of
certain current public information about the Company, (ii) the resale being made
through a broker in an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in transactions
directly with a " market maker," and (iv) the amount of securities sold during
any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations (generally 1% of the
total shares outstanding).
(4) Limitations on Rule 144. The Purchaser further acknowledges and
---------------------------
understands that while the Company does now satisfy the availability of public
information requirement of Rule 144, at any time the Purchaser desires to sell
the Securities, the Company might not be then compliant with such public
information requirement of Rule 144, and, in such case, the Purchaser would be
precluded from selling the Securities under Rule 144 even if the minimum holding
period had been satisfied.
