Subscription and Indemnification and Stock Purchase Warrant Agreement
(“Subscription Agreement”) is executed by the undersigned subscriber (the
“Subscriber”) who desires to purchase units (“Units”) consisting of shares of
common stock, par value $0.001 (“Common Stock”), of International Star, Inc., a
Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and warrants to purchase shares of Common
Stock, pursuant to the terms and conditions as stated herein (the
“Offering”).





The
Subscriber hereby subscribes to purchase 500,000 Units of shares of the
Company’s Common Stock (the “Shares”) and Common Stock purchase warrants (the
“Warrants”) at a price of $0.01 per Unit, for a total subscription price of Five
Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) (the “Total Subscription
Price”).





By
executing this Subscription Agreement, Subscriber agrees to pay the full amount
of the Total Subscription Price and receive the Shares and Warrants subscribed
for, subject to the following terms:





Payment
for the Total Subscription Price shall be made in cash upon the delivery of this
Subscription Agreement to the Company by the Subscriber delivering a check for
the Total Subscription Price, payable to the order of International Star, Inc.,

Each Unit
shall consist of one Share of Common Stock and one Warrant issued pursuant to
the terms and conditions provided herein.

terms and conditions:





(a) 
The Offering is being made on a first-come, first-served basis for the purpose

or exceptions from registration under the securities laws of Louisiana and any

certificate(s) issued to Subscriber representing the Warrants, and the
certificate(s) to be issued to Subscriber representing shares of Common Stock

of 1933.”

or substantially all the property and assets of the Company (unless such plan is

by the estate of the Subscriber or by the person who acquired the right to
exercise the Warrants in accordance with this paragraph, subject to such
transferree’s execution of a Subscription and Indemnification and Stock Purchase
Warrant Agreement with the Company.

law or regulation.






3

Adjustment of Warrant Shares.  If at any time prior to the expiration
or exercise in full of the Warrants, there shall be any increase or decrease in
the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock through the
declaration of a stock dividend or through any recapitalization resulting in a
stock split, combination or exchange of the Common Stock, then the number of
Warrant Shares subject to the Warrants shall be proportionately adjusted for any
such change in the stock structure of the Company.





Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, the issuance by the Company of shares of
its capital stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of capital
stock of any class, either in connection with a direct sale or upon the exercise
of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon conversions of shares or
obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities,
shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect
to, the number or exercise price of the Warrant Shares that remain unexercised
under the Warrants.





Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the existence of unexercised Warrant
Shares under the Warrants shall not affect in any manner the right or power of
the Company to make, authorize or consummate (i) any or all adjustments,
recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company's capital
structure or its business; (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Company;
(iii) any issue by the Company of debt securities, or preferred or preference
stock that would rank above the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the
Warrant; (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; (v) any sale,
transfer or assignment of all or any part of the assets or business of the
Company; or (vi) any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar
character or otherwise.





(i) 
No Rights as Stockholder.  The Subscriber shall have no rights as a
stockholder of the Company with respect to any Warrant Shares as to which
Warrants have not been exercised and payment of the Total Exercise Price has not
been made therefor as herein provided.

state securities laws for this Offering and sale of the Units; and

complete as of the date hereof, and, if there should be any material change in
these representations prior to the issuance of the Shares and Warrants, the
Subscriber will immediately inform the Company and furnish such revised or
corrected information to the Company.





5.  Indemnification.  The
Subscriber does hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and independent contractors
from and against any and all liabilities, damages, losses, costs, claims and
