APPENDIX A
INVESTMENT LETTER
March 31st, 2005
Centurion Gold Holdings, Inc.
Dear Sir:
In connection with the purchase of 15,000,000 shares of the common stock (the
"Shares") of Centurion Gold Holdings, Inc. (the "Corporation") by National Turf
Investments (the "Purchasers") pursuant to a share purchase agreement dated the
31st day of March, 2005 (the "Share Purchase Agreement"), the undersigned (the
"Purchaser"), hereby makes the following acknowledgments, representations and
warranties:
1. Investment Intent. The Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for investment
solely for his/her/its own account and not with a present view to any
distribution, transfer or resale to others, including any "distribution" within
the meaning of Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Securities Act"). The
Purchaser understands that the Shares have not and will not be registered under
the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends on, among
other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of
my representations made herein.
2. Financial Ability. The Purchaser is financially able to bear the economic
risks of an investment in the Corporation and has no need for liquidity in this
investment. Furthermore, the financial capacity of the Purchaser is of such a
proportion that the total cost of the Purchaser's commitment is not material
when compared with his total committed capital. The Purchaser is financially
able to suffer a complete loss of this investment.
3. Experience. The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters in general and with respect to investments of a nature similar
to that evidenced by the Shares so as to be capable, by reason of such knowledge
and experience, of evaluating the merits and risks of, and making an informed
business decision with regard to, and protecting his own interests in connection
with, the acquisition of the Shares.
4. Review of Prospectus and Financial Statements. The Purchaser has been
provided with and had the opportunity to review all filings made by the
Corporation with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, as
disclosed in the Share Purchase Agreement and available at the SEC's web site at
xxx.xxx.xxx.
5. Limited Public Market. The Purchaser understands that a limited public market
now exists for any of the securities of the Corporation and that the Corporation
has made no assurances that a more active public market will ever exist for the
Corporation's securities.
6. Restricted Legend. The Purchaser acknowledges that certificates representing
the Shares will bear a legend substantially as follows:
THE SHARES OF STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED UNLESS
THEY ARE SO REGISTERED OR, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO
THE CORPORATION, SUCH TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION.
7. Stock Transfer. The Purchaser is aware that stop-transfer instructions will
be given to the transfer agent of the common stock of the Corporation to prevent
any unauthorized or illegal transfer of the Shares.
Page 13
8. Reliance for Exemptions. The Purchaser understands that the Shares are being
transferred to him pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of
federal and applicable state securities laws and acknowledges that he is relying
upon the investment and other representations made herein as the basis for such
exemptions.
9. Accuracy of Purchaser Representations. The Purchaser represents that the
information and representations contained in this letter are true, correct and
complete.
