Subscriber hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase the number
of shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") as indicated below:
Number of shares of Common Stock subscribed for: 92,592 X $1.08 per share =
Total Purchase Price: $99,999.36.
Simultaneously with the execution and delivery by Subscriber of this
Subscription Agreement, Subscriber is delivering to the Company the Total
Purchase Price for the Common Stock in the form of a check payable to "ebank
Financial Services, Inc."
Subscriber acknowledges that the issuance of the Common Stock is not and will
not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act"), or the
securities laws of any state in reliance upon exemptions from registration
contained in those respective laws, and that the Company's reliance
upon such exemptions is based in part upon Subscriber's representations,
warranties and agreements contained in this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber
acknowledges that this Subscription Agreement constitutes a valid and binding
agreement on the Subscriber but not on the Company until accepted, and that
certificates for the Common Stock will be delivered to Subscriber as soon as
practicable after the Company accepts the Subscription Agreement.

directly or indirectly in a distribution of, the Common Stock or any part
thereof. Subscriber understands that the Common Stock has not been registered
under the Act or under any state securities law in reliance on representations

an indefinite period (i.e., at the time of the investment, Subscriber has the
ability to afford a complete loss).
2.3 Subscriber understands that the shares of Common Stock subject
hereto are characterized as "restricted securities" under the federal securities
laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not
involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations
such Common Stock may be resold without registration under the Act only in
certain limited circumstances. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that he will
not sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of the Common Stock unless any such
transfer is registered under the Act, or unless such sale, transfer, or other
disposition would be in compliance with all applicable federal and state
securities laws and regulations and Subscriber provides the Company with a legal
opinion acceptable in form and substance to the Company and the Company's legal
counsel stating that such sale, transfer or other disposition may be made
without registration under the Act and under any other applicable laws and
regulations.

his offeree representative(s), possesses the requisite knowledge and experience
in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of an investment in the Common Stock.

granted access to, and had the opportunity to review, financial and other
information relating to the Company and all documents, records, and books

appropriate as a prudent and knowledgeable investor in evaluating the merits and
risks of investment in the Common Stock, and that Subscriber understands that
the books and records of the Company will continue to be made available to
Subscriber for inspection upon reasonable notice, during reasonable business
hours, at the principal place of business of the Company, prior to acceptance of
this Subscription Agreement by the Company.
2.6 Subscriber has a pre-existing business or personal relationship
with the Company or with one or more of the Company's officers, directors, or
controlling persons. Subscriber and his advisers have had a reasonable
opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the officers of the
Company, or a person or persons acting on their behalf, concerning the terms and
conditions of this offering, and to obtain additional information, to the extent
possessed or obtainable without unreasonable effort or expense by the officers
of the Company. All such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction
of Subscriber.

investments is reasonable in relation to his net worth.
2.8 Subscriber understands that no federal or state agency or
securities exchange has recommended or endorsed the purchase of the Common
Stock.
2.9 Subscriber acknowledges that neither the Company, nor any person
acting on its behalf, offered to sell the Common Stock by means of any form of
advertising.
2.10 Subscriber understands that the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board on
which the Company's common stock is quoted is not an established market.
Subscriber understands that the transferability of the Common Stock is subject
to the restrictions set forth herein and Subscriber cannot expect to be able to

regulatory events may occur that could lead to a partial or total failure of the
