SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
In connection with my exchange of $.001 par value common stock of Beverage Acquisition Corporation, Inc. (“BAC”), for the $.0001 par value common stock of Newbridge Reorganization, Inc. (“Newbridge”), I acknowledge the matters set forth below and promise that the statements made herein are true. I understand that Newbridge is relying on my truthfulness in issuing its securities to me.
I hereby represent and warrant to Newbridge that I have the full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of mine, enforceable against me in accordance with its terms. I own the securities in BAC that I am exchanging for securities of Newbridge free and clear of all pledges, liens, encumbrances, security interests, equities, claims, options, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, or any other limitation on my ability to vote such securities or to transfer such securities to Newbridge. I have full right, title and interest in and to the BAC securities that I am exchanging.
I understand that Newbridge’s common stock (the “Securities) are being issued to me in a private transaction in exchange for my securities in BAC and in reliance upon the exemption provided in section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) for non-public offerings and pursuant to the Agreement Concerning the Exchange of Securities between Newbridge and BAC (“Agreement”). I understand that the Securities are “restricted” under applicable securities laws and may not be sold by me except in a registered offering (which may not ever occur) or in a private transaction like this one. I know this is an illiquid investment and that therefore I may be required to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time, but under no circumstances less than one year from the date of its issuance.
I am acquiring the Securities solely for my own account, for long-term investment purposes only and not with a view to sale or other distribution. I agree not to dispose of any Securities unless and until counsel for Newbridge shall have determined that the intended disposition is permissible and does not violate the Act, any applicable state securities laws or rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
All information, financial and otherwise, or documentation pertaining to all aspects of my acquisition of the Securities and the activities and financial information of Newbridge has been made available to me and my representatives, if any, and I have had ample opportunity to meet with and ask questions of senior officers of Newbridge, and I have received satisfactory answers to any questions I asked.
In acquiring the Securities, I have reviewed the Agreement and have made such independent investigations of Newbridge as I deemed appropriate. I am an experienced investor, have made speculative investments in the past and am capable of analyzing the merits of an investment in the Securities.
I understand that the Securities are highly speculative, involves a great degree of risk and should only be acquired by individuals who can afford to lose their entire investment. Nevertheless, I consider this a suitable investment for me because I have adequate financial resources and income to maintain my current standard of living even after my acquisition of the Securities. I know that Newbridge is a “shell” company with no significant assets or liabilities, its financial affairs can fluctuate dramatically from time to time, and that although I could lose my entire investment, I am acquiring the Securities because I believe the potential rewards are commensurate with the risk. Even if the Securities became worthless, I could still maintain my standard of living without significant hardship on me or my family.
By signing this Agreement, I also accept and agree to abide by the terms and conditions of the Agreement as if I had executed the Agreement itself.
