This subscription agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between VORTEX BRANDS. INC., a Colorado corporation (hereinafter the “Company”) and the undersigned (hereinafter the “Subscriber”) as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto. Any term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Offering Circular (as defined below).
BACKGROUND
A. The Company desires to offer up to 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), on a “best efforts” basis pursuant to Regulation A of Section 3(b)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a Tier 2 offering (the “Offering”), with no minimum offering requirement, at a purchase price of $0.005 per share (the “Per Share Purchase Price”), for total gross proceeds of up to $5,000,000 (the “Maximum Offering”). The minimum subscription amount is 200 shares.
B. The Subscriber desires to acquire that number of shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) as set forth on the signature page hereto at the Per Share Purchase Price.
C. The Offering will terminate on the first to occur of: (i) the date on which the Maximum Offering is completed; (ii) the date which is one year from the Offering being qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”); or (iii) the date on which the Offering is earlier terminated by the Company in its sole discretion, subject to the Company’s right to undertake one or more closings (each, a “Closing”) on a rolling basis (in each case, the “Termination Date”).
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:
1. Subscription.
(a) The Subscriber hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase the number of Shares set forth on the signature page hereto at the Per Share Purchase Price, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. The aggregate purchase price for the Shares with respect to each Subscriber (the “Purchase Price”) is payable in the manner provided in Section 2 below.
(b) The Subscriber understands that the Shares are being offered pursuant to the Regulation A Offering Circular dated _____________, 2018 and its exhibits (collectively, the “Offering Circular”) as filed with the SEC. By subscribing to the Offering, the Subscriber acknowledges that the Subscriber has received and reviewed a copy of the Offering Circular and any other information required by the Subscriber to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares. After the Offering Circular has been qualified by the SEC, Pacific Stock Transfer Company, Inc., appointed by the Company as escrow agent for the Offering (the “Escrow Agent”), will accept tenders of funds to purchase the Shares. The Company will close on investments on a “rolling basis,” pursuant to the terms of the Offering Circular. As a result, not all investors will receive their Shares on the same date.
2. Payment and Purchase Procedure.
(a) The Subscriber is requested to complete and execute this Agreement online or to print, execute and deliver two copies of this Agreement to 0000 Xxx Xxxx Xx., Xxx. 160 PMB 000, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000, along with payment in the amount of the Purchase Price of the Shares subscribed (the “Funds”).
(b) Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Subscriber shall deliver the Funds by check, wire transfer or ACH. Checks should be made payable to the Company.
(c) This subscription may be accepted or rejected in whole or in part, for any reason or for no reason, at any time prior to the Termination Date, by the Company at its sole and absolute discretion. In addition, the Company, at its sole and absolute discretion, may allocate to the Subscriber only a portion of the number of the Shares that the Subscriber has subscribed for hereunder. The Company will notify the Subscriber whether this subscription is accepted (whether in whole or in part) or rejected. If the Subscriber’s subscription is rejected, the Funds (or portion thereof if partially rejected) will be returned to the Subscriber without interest and all of the Subscriber’s obligations hereunder shall terminate. In the event of rejection of this subscription in its entirety, or in the event the sale of the Shares (or any portion thereof) to the Subscriber is not consummated for any reason, this Agreement shall have no force or effect, except for Section 5 hereof, which shall remain in force and effect.
(d) The Company may close on investments on a “rolling” basis at its discretion. Funds will remain in escrow until a Closing has occurred. Upon a Closing, the Escrow Agent will release the Funds to the Company. In the event that the Offering does not close by the Termination Date, any Funds tendered will be promptly returned by the Escrow Agent, without interest or deduction.
(e) Upon a release of the Funds to the Company by the Escrow Agent, the Subscriber shall receive (i) a fully executed counterpart of this Agreement, (ii) notice and evidence of the digital entry (or other manner of record) of the number of Shares owned by the Subscriber reflected on the books and records of the Company and verified by Colonial Stock Transfer Company, Inc., the Company’s transfer agent, which books and records shall bear the notation that the Shares were sold in reliance upon Regulation A under the Securities Act, and (iii) if the subscription has been accepted only in part, a refund of the Funds submitted for Shares not purchased.
3. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to the Subscriber that the following representations and warranties are true and complete in all material respects as of the date of each Closing:
(a) The Company is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Colorado. The Company has all requisite power and authority to own and operate its properties and assets, to execute and deliver this Agreement, the Shares and any other agreements or instruments required hereunder. The Company is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its activities and of its properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business.
(b) The issuance, sale and delivery of the Shares in accordance with this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. The Shares, when issued, sold and delivered against payment therefor in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
(c) The acceptance by the Company of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are within the Company’s powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. Upon the Company’s acceptance of this Agreement, this Agreement shall constitute a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights and (ii) as limited by general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable remedies.
4. Representations and Warranties of the Subscriber. By subscribing to the Offering, the Subscriber (and, if the Subscriber is purchasing the Shares subscribed for hereby in a fiduciary capacity, the person or persons for whom the Subscriber is so purchasing) represents and warrants to the Company, which representations and warranties are true and complete in all material respects, as of the date of each Closing:
(a) The Subscriber has all necessary power and authority under all applicable provisions of law to subscribe to the Offering, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to carry out the provisions thereof. All actions on the Subscriber’s part required for the lawful subscription to the Offering have been or will be effectively taken prior to the Closing. Upon subscribing to the Offering, this Agreement will be a valid and binding obligation of the Subscriber, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights and (ii) as limited by general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable remedies.
(b) The Subscriber acknowledges the public availability of the Company’s current Offering Circular, which can be viewed on the SEC Xxxxx Database under the filed number _________. This Offering Circular is made available in the Company’s most recent qualified offering statement on SEC Form 1-A, as amended, deemed qualified on _________, 2018. In the Company’s Offering Circular, it makes clear the terms and conditions of the Offering and the risks associated therewith are described. The Subscriber has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management and financial affairs with directors, officers and management of the Company and has had the opportunity to review the Company’s operations and facilities. The Subscriber has also had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company and its management regarding the terms and conditions of this investment. The Subscriber acknowledges that except as set forth herein, no representations or warranties have been made to the Subscriber, or to the Subscriber’s advisors or representative, by the Company or others with respect to the business or prospects of the Company or its financial condition.
(c) The Subscriber has sufficient experience in financial and business matters to be capable of utilizing such information to evaluate the merits and risks of the Subscriber’s investment in the Shares, and to make an informed decision relating thereto. Alternatively, the Subscriber has utilized the services of a purchaser representative and together they have sufficient experience in financial and business matters that they are capable of utilizing such information to evaluate the merits and risks of the Subscriber’s investment in the Shares, and to make an informed decision relating thereto. The Subscriber has evaluated the risks of an investment in the Shares, including those described in the section of the Offering Circular entitled “Risk Factors,” and has determined that the investment is suitable for the Subscriber. The Subscriber has adequate financial resources for an investment of this character. The Subscriber could bear a complete loss of the Subscriber’s investment in the Company.
(d) The Subscriber understands that the Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act, on the ground that the issuance thereof is exempt under Regulation A of Section 3(b) of the Securities Act, and that reliance on such exemption is predicated in part on the truth and accuracy of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties, and those of the other purchasers of the Shares in the Offering. The Subscriber further understands that the Shares are not being registered under the securities laws of any states on the basis that the issuance thereof is exempt as an offer and sale not involving a registrable public offering in such state, since the Shares are “covered securities” under the National Securities Market Improvement Act of 1996. The Subscriber covenants not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Shares unless such Shares have been registered under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws, or exemptions from such registration requirements are available.
(e) The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that there is no ready public market for the Shares and that there is no guarantee that a market for their resale will ever exist. The Company has no obligation to list any of the Shares on any market or take any steps (including registration under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) with respect to facilitating trading or resale of the Shares. The Subscriber must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely and the Subscriber acknowledges that the Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk of losing the Subscriber’s entire investment in the Shares.
(f) The Subscriber represents that either: (i) the Subscriber is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act; or (ii) the Purchase Price, together with any other amounts previously used to purchase Shares in the Offering, does not exceed ten percent (10%) of the greater of the Subscriber’s annual income or net worth (or in the case where the Subscriber is a non-natural person, their revenue or net assets for such Subscriber’s most recently completed fiscal year end). The Subscriber represents that to the extent it has any questions with respect to its status as an accredited investor, or the application of the investment limits, it has sought professional advice.
(g) Within five (5) days after receipt of a request from the Company, the Subscriber hereby agrees to provide such information with respect to its status as a stockholder (or potential stockholder) and to execute and deliver such documents as may reasonably be necessary to comply with any and all laws and regulations to which the Company is or may become subject, including, without limitation, the need to determine the accredited investor status of the Company’s stockholders.
(h) The Subscriber acknowledges that the Per Share Purchase Price of the Shares to be sold in the Offering was set by the Company on the basis of the Company’s internal valuation and no warranties are made as to value. The Subscriber further acknowledges that future offerings of securities of the Company may be made at lower valuations, with the result that the Subscriber’s investment will bear a lower valuation.
(i) The Subscriber maintains the Subscriber’s domicile (and is not a transient or temporary resident) at the address provided with the Subscriber’s subscription.
(j) If the Subscriber is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), the Subscriber hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Shares. The Subscriber’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Shares will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Subscriber’s jurisdiction.
(k) If the Subscriber is purchasing the Shares in a fiduciary capacity for another person or entity, including without limitation a corporation, partnership, trust or any other entity, the Subscriber has been duly authorized and empowered to execute this Agreement and all other subscription documents. Upon request of the Company, the Subscriber will provide true, complete and current copies of all relevant documents creating the Subscriber, authorizing its investment in the Company and/or evidencing the satisfaction of the foregoing.
5. Indemnity. The representations, warranties and covenants made by the Subscriber herein shall survive the closing of this Agreement. The Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its respective officers, directors and affiliates, and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including attorneys’ fees on appeal) and expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any false representation or warranty or breach of failure by the Subscriber to comply with any covenant or agreement made by the Subscriber herein or in any other document furnished by the Subscriber to any of the foregoing in connection with the Offering.
6. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Offering Circular, including, without limitation, this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.
7. Market Stand-Off. If so requested by the Company or any representative of the underwriters (the “Managing Underwriter”) in connection with any underwritten or Regulation A+ offering of securities, if any occurs, of the Company under the Securities Act, the undersigned shall not sell or otherwise transfer any Shares or other securities of the Company during the 30-day period preceding and the 270-day period following the effective date of a registration or offering statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act for such public offering or Regulation A+ offering or underwriting (or such shorter period as may be requested by the Managing Underwriter and agreed to by the Company). The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of such period.

In the event any part of this Agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions are intended to be separable and binding with the same effect as if the void or unenforceable part were never the subject of agreement. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of one or more of the provisions of this Agreement in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in such jurisdiction or the validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement, including any such provision, in any other jurisdiction, it being intended that all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
