Ladies and Gentlemen:







1.           Subscription. The undersigned (the “Purchaser”), intending to be legally bound, hereby agrees to purchase from National Datacomputer, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Company’s Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) (in the form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A) in the original principal amount set forth on the signature page hereof. The minimum subscription for a note shall be $5,000, however, the Company may, in its discretion, accept less than the minimum subscription amount. This subscription is submitted to you in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions described in this agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) and in the Confidential Private Placement Memorandum of the Company, dated April 21, 2010, as amended or supplemented from time to time, including all attachments, schedules and exhibits thereto (the “Memorandum”), relating to the offering (the “Offering”) of the Note and other Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Notes”).







The Purchaser understands and agrees that the Company’s obligations under the Notes will be secured by a security interest in the Company’s assets pursuant to a security agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Security Agreement”). The terms of the Offering are more completely described in the Memorandum and such terms are incorporated herein in their entirety. Certain terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings provided in the Memorandum.







2.           Payment. The Purchaser encloses herewith a check payable to, or will immediately make a wire transfer payment to, “National Datacomputer, Inc.” in the full amount of the purchase price of the Note being subscribed for. Such funds will be held for the Purchaser’s benefit, and will be returned promptly, without interest, penalty, expense or deduction if this Subscription Agreement is not accepted by the Company or if the Offering is terminated pursuant to its terms or by the Company. Together with the check for, or wire transfer of, the full purchase price, the Purchaser is delivering (i) a completed and executed counterpart signature page to this Subscription Agreement and (ii) a completed and executed counterpart signature page to the Security Agreement.







3.           Acceptance of Subscription. The Purchaser understands and agrees that the Company reserves the right to accept or reject this or any other subscription for a Note, in whole or in part. The Company shall have no obligation hereunder until the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchaser an executed copy of this Subscription Agreement. If this subscription is rejected in whole or the Offering is terminated, all funds received from the Purchaser will be returned without interest, penalty, expense or deduction, and this Subscription Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force or effect. If this subscription is rejected in part, the funds for the rejected portion of this subscription will be returned without interest, penalty, expense or deduction, and this Subscription Agreement will continue in full force and effect to the extent this subscription was accepted.

4.           Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser hereby represents, warrants, acknowledges and agrees as follows:







(a)           Neither the Note nor the shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), issuable upon conversion of the Note (the “Conversion Shares”) are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws. The Purchaser understands that the offering and sale of the Notes is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and the provisions of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, based, in part, upon the representations, warranties and agreements of the Purchaser contained in this Subscription Agreement.







(b)           The Purchaser has received the Memorandum, this Subscription Agreement (and the forms of Note and Security Agreement attached as Exhibits A and B hereto) and all other documents requested by the Purchaser, has carefully reviewed them and understands the information contained therein, and the Purchaser, prior to the execution of this Subscription Agreement, has had access to the same kind of information which would be available in a registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act, including without limitation the Company’s Commission Reports (as defined below).







(c)           Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) nor any state securities commission has approved the Notes or passed upon or endorsed the merits of the Offering or confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of the Memorandum. The Memorandum has not been reviewed by any federal, state or other regulatory authority.







(d)           All documents, records and books pertaining to the investment in the Notes (including, without limitation, the Memorandum) have been made available for inspection by the Purchaser.







(e)           The Purchaser has had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from a person or persons acting on behalf of the Company concerning the offering of the Notes and the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Company, and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of the Purchaser.







(f)           In evaluating the suitability of an investment in the Company, the Purchaser has not relied upon any representation or other information (oral or written) other than as stated in the Memorandum and in the Commission Reports (as the representations or other information contained therein may be modified by the Memorandum).







(g)           The Purchaser is unaware of, is in no way relying on, and did not become aware of the Offering through or as a result of, any form of general solicitation or general advertising including, without limitation, any article, notice, advertisement or other communication

published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, in connection with the Offering and sale of the Notes and is not subscribing for a Note and did not become aware of the offering of the Notes through or as a result of any seminar or meeting to which the Purchaser was invited by, or any solicitation of a subscription by, a person not previously known to the Purchaser in connection with investments in securities generally.







(h)           The Purchaser has taken no action which would give rise to any claim by any person, corporation, general partnership, limited partnership, proprietorship, entity, other business organization, trust, union or association (any of the foregoing, a “Person”) for brokerage commissions, finders’ fees or the like relating to this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.







(i)           The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax and business matters, and, in particular, investments in securities, so as to enable Purchaser to utilize the information made available to Purchaser in connection with the Offering to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company and to make an informed investment decision with respect thereto.







(j)           The Purchaser is not relying on the Company or any of its employees or agents with respect to the legal, tax, economic and related considerations as to the purchase of the Note, and the Purchaser has relied on the advice of, or has consulted with, only his own advisors.







(k)           The Purchaser is acquiring the Note solely for the Purchaser’s own account for investment and not with a view to resale, assignment or distribution thereof, in whole or in part. The Purchaser has no agreement or arrangement, formal or informal, with any Person to sell or transfer all or any part of the Note or the Conversion Shares and the Purchaser has no plans to enter into any such agreement or arrangement.







(l)           The Purchaser must bear the substantial economic risks of the purchase of the Note indefinitely because neither the Note nor the Conversion Shares may be sold, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available. Legends shall be placed on the Note and on any certificates representing Conversion Shares to the effect that they have not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws and appropriate notations thereof will be made in the Company’s records.







(m)           The Purchaser has adequate means of providing for such Purchaser’s current financial needs and foreseeable contingencies and has no need for liquidity in the Note for an indefinite period of time.







(n)           The Purchaser is aware that the purchase of a Note involves a number of very significant risks and has carefully read and considered the matters set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Memorandum and in the Commission Filings.

(o)           The Purchaser meets the requirements of at least one of the suitability standards for an “accredited investor” as set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement.







(p)           The Purchaser: (i) if a natural person, represents that the Purchaser has reached the age of 21 and has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement and all other related agreements or certificates and to carry out the provisions hereof and thereof; and (ii) if a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or partnership, association, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated organization or other entity, (1) such entity was not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Note, (2) such entity is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization, (3) the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby is authorized by, and will not result in a violation of state law or its charter or other organizational documents, (4) such entity has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement and all other related agreements or certificates and to carry out the provisions hereof and thereof and to purchase and hold the Note, (5) the execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on behalf of such entity, and (6) this Subscription Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of such entity and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such entity. The execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement will not violate or be in conflict with any order, judgment, injunction, agreement or controlling document to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound.







(q)           The Purchaser had the opportunity to obtain any additional information, to the extent the Company had such information in its possession or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense, necessary to verify the accuracy of the information contained in the Memorandum and all documents received or reviewed in connection with the purchase of the Note and the opportunity to have representatives of the Company provide Purchaser with such additional information regarding the terms and conditions of this particular investment and the financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects of the Company deemed relevant by the Purchaser and all such requested information, to the extent the Company had such information in its possession or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense, has been provided to Purchaser’s full satisfaction.







(r)           The Purchaser has a sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of its entire investment in the Company in the event such a loss should occur. The Purchaser’s overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not excessive in view of its net worth and financial circumstances and the purchase of the Note will not cause such commitment to become excessive. The investment is a suitable one for the Purchaser.







(s)           The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company does not make and has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the Company or the Offering other than those specifically set forth in this Subscription Agreement.

(c)           No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the Offering do not and will not: (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Company’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other instrument to which the Company is a party or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority as currently in effect to which the Company is subject (including federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected; except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as would not, individually or in the aggregate (x) adversely affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the Offering, (y) have or result in or be reasonably likely to have or result in a material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets, prospects, business or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company, or (z) adversely impair the Company’s ability to perform fully on a timely basis its obligations under this Subscription Agreement (any of (x), (y) or (z), a “Material Adverse Effect”).
