1.
Agreement to Purchase.

This offering may be consummated in one or more closings from time to time and each such date a “Closing Date.” The consummation of the transactions contemplated herein for the first Closing Date shall take place, in one or more closings from time to time, on or prior to October 18, 2012 upon the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to closing set forth in this Agreement or until the maximum of $100,000 of Shares are sold.

Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on each Closing Date, each Subscriber closing thereupon shall purchase and the Company shall issue to each Subscriber, such number of Shares as subscribed and paid for as provided above.
2.
Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Subscriber. Each Subscriber represents and warrants to the Company, and covenants for the benefit of the Company and each other Subscriber, as follows:
2.1
The Subscriber is an "accredited investor" as defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). In the alternative, the Subscriber acknowledges that it is not a US person as defined under Regulation S, and that it is not acquiring the Shares for re-sale or distribution in the United States other than as provided under the safe harbor provisions of Regulation S or Regulation D or Section 4(2).
2.2
The Subscriber is acquiring the Shares for its own account and not with a view to any distribution of any of the Securities in violation of the Securities Act. The Subscriber understands that the current market price for the Common Stock of the Company does not have any bearing on the Company’s actual value, and that the same may decline precipitously once a market develops. Subscriber further acknowledges and understands that the terms of the Shares have not been reviewed or assessed by any independent party and were arbitrarily determined by the Company’s board in good faith.
2.3
Each Subscriber understands that an investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and illiquidity, including, risk of loss of their entire investment. Each Subscriber represents that such Subscriber has been given full and complete access to the Company for the purpose of obtaining such information as such Subscriber or its qualified representative has reasonably requested in connection with the decision to purchase the Shares. Each Subscriber represents that such Subscriber has received and reviewed copies of the SEC reports of the Company and term sheet as well as copies of the exhibits hereto. Each Subscriber represents that such Subscriber has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the officers of the Company regarding its business prospects and the Shares, all as such Subscriber or such Subscriber’s qualified representative have found necessary to make an informed investment decision to purchase the Shares. Subscriber understands that if no market develops, that Subscriber will not be able to sell any of the Shares or other securities acquired by it.
The Subscriber acknowledges that it has significant prior investment experience, including investment in non-listed and non-registered securities, and that the Subscriber recognizes the highly speculative nature of this investment. In particular, and without limitation, the Subscriber represents that it understands that the Company’s securities have suffered significant illiquidity and that its current Common Stock price is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s value and that other restricted shareholders are eligible to sell securities pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. The Subscriber represents that it has been furnished with, and has reviewed, all of the Company’s SEC Reports (as hereinafter defined) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, its most recent term sheet relating to this offering, and all documents and other information regarding the Company that the Subscriber had requested or desired to know and all other documents which could be reasonably provided have been made available for the Subscriber’s inspection and review;
2.4 The subscriber understands and acknowledges that currently, an affiliate of the Company, is a control person that has acquired its shares at substantially lower prices and that, accordingly, Subscriber will suffer immediate and substantial dilution.
2.5
The Subscriber acknowledges that the Securities have not been passed upon or reviewed by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Subscriber agrees that it will not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares until they are registered under the Securities Act, or unless an exemption from such registration is available and that a legend substantially in the form as provided in Section 4 below will be placed on the certificate(s) representing the shares to such effect;
2.6
This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement and obligation of the Subscriber enforceable against the Subscriber in accordance with its terms, subject to limitations on enforcement by general principles of equity and bankruptcy or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally;
2.7
Subscriber is not acquiring the Securities as part of a group, as such term is defined in Section 13 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and is not acting in concert with any person acting in such manner. Subscriber makes its own voting and dispositive decisions and has not agreed to grant any proxy or enter into any form of voting trust, agreement or similar arrangement with respect to the Shares other than as set forth in the Waiver of even date herewith;
2.8
This Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered on behalf of the Subscriber, and the Subscriber has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other agreements and documents contemplated hereby and to perform his obligations hereunder and thereunder; and
2.9
Subscriber has not paid any finders fees, commissions or broker fees in connection with his/her/its investment herein and has not been solicited by means of any form of advertisement, public dissemination or solicitation.
3.
