SearchPath International, Inc.

1350 Euclid Avenue, Suite 325

Cleveland, Ohio 44115




Attention: Mr. Tom Johnston




Ladies and Gentlemen:




     The undersigned subscriber (the “Subscriber”) acknowledges that she or he has received and
reviewed certain information relating to an investment in SearchPath International, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with respect to the Company’s offering (the “Offering”) of
One-Year Convertible Notes of the Company (the “Notes”) convertible into shares of the Company’s
common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), in an aggregate principal amount of
up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the Notes and the Common Stock shall be collectively
referred to as the “Securities”).



     1. Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Subscriber hereby
irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase ______________________________
Dollars ($____________) principal
amount of the Securities and tenders herewith, good funds in such amount payable to the order of
the Company.



     2. Acceptance of Subscription; Escrow Account. The Subscriber understands and agrees
that this subscription is made subject to the unconditional right of the Company to reject any
subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever. The Subscriber understands that the
total amount subscribed will be deposited into the Company’s account and will be returned to the
Subscriber without interest if: (a) this subscription has not been accepted and is subsequently
rejected by the Company; or (b) less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) principal
amount of the Securities are subscribed and paid for by all investors by the termination of the
Offering. It is understood and agreed that if this subscription is accepted by the Company and
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) principal amount of the Securities are subscribed and paid
for by such date by all investors, the funds tendered herewith shall be deposited to the general
account of the Company and shall be considered assets of the Company in payment for the Securities.



     3. Representations and Warranties of the Subscriber. The Subscriber understands and
acknowledges that the Securities are being offered and sold under



 









 







one or more of the exemptions from registration provided for in Section 4(2) of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and
any applicable state securities laws. The Subscriber is purchasing the Securities without being
offered or furnished any formal offering literature or prospectus. The Subscriber understands that
this transaction has not been reviewed or approved by any federal agency or state regulatory
authority charged with the administration of the securities laws of any state. During the
Offering, all documents, records and books pertaining to this investment, as well as management of
the Company, have been made available to the Subscriber and the representatives of the Subscriber
and the Subscriber has had the opportunity to discuss this Subscription Agreement, the available
information with respect to the Company, and the Subscriber’s potential investment in the Company
with his or her counsel and financial advisor. The Subscriber acknowledges that the books and
records of the Company have been made available to him or her, and will be available upon
reasonable notice for inspection by the Subscriber during reasonable business hours at its
principal place of business set forth above.



          3.1. Residence; Authority. The Subscriber is a resident of, or has its principal
place of business in, the state listed on the signature page hereto. If the Subscriber is an
individual, the Subscriber is of full legal age in such state and is legally competent to execute
and deliver this Subscription Agreement. If the Subscriber is an entity, the execution, delivery
and performance of the Subscriber’s obligations under this Subscription Agreement have been duly
authorized by all required action. This Subscription Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and
binding obligation of the Subscriber, enforceable against the Subscriber in accordance with its
terms.




          3.2. Suitability. The Subscriber understands that his or her investment in the
Securities is of a speculative nature and confirms that the Subscriber understands and has fully
considered for purposes of this investment the risks of this investment and understands that (i)
this investment is suitable only for an investor who is able to bear the economic consequences of
losing his or her entire investment, (ii) the purchase of the Securities is an extremely
speculative investment which involves a high degree of risk, and (iii) there are substantial
restrictions on the transferability of, and there will be no immediate public market for, the
Securities, and accordingly, it may not be possible for the Subscriber to liquidate the
Subscriber’s investment in case of emergency.




          3.3. Lack of Liquidity. The Subscriber confirms that the Subscriber is able (i) to
bear the economic risk of this investment, and (ii) to hold the Securities for an indefinite period
of time. The Subscriber has sufficient liquid assets so that the illiquidity associated with this
investment will not cause any undue financial difficulties or affect the Subscriber’s ability to
provide for the Subscriber’s current needs and possible financial contingencies, and that the
Subscriber’s commitment to all speculative investments is reasonable in relation to the
Subscriber’s net worth and annual income.




          3.4. Knowledge and Experience. The Subscriber has such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters that the Subscriber is capable of



 









 







evaluating the merits and risks of this speculative investment and of making an informed investment
decision.



          3.5. Accredited Investor. The Subscriber falls into one or more of the following
categories and is therefore an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the
Securities Act:




     (a) An individual who: (i) together with his or her spouse has a net worth (i.e., total assets
in excess of total liabilities) in excess of $1,000,000; or (ii) individually (without his or her
spouse) had annual income in excess of $200,000 in 2006 and 2007 and has a reasonable expectation
of reaching the same income level in the current year; or (iii) together with his or her spouse has
annual income in excess of $300,000 in 2006 and 2007, and reasonably expects a joint annual income
in excess of $300,000 in the current year.



     (b) A corporation, partnership or trust if: (i) all of its equity owners are individual
accredited investors as described under (a)(i), (ii) or (iii) above; or (ii) it has total assets
in excess of $5,000,000.



     (c) An employee benefit plan within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974 (“ERISA”) if: (i) the investment decision is made by a plan fiduciary, as defined in
Section 3(21) of ERISA, which is either a bank, savings and loan association, insurance company, or
registered investment adviser; (ii) the plan has total assets in excess of $5,000,000; or (iii) if
a self-directed plan, with investment decisions made solely by persons each of whom is an
accredited investor as described under (a)(i), (ii), or (iii) above.



     (d) A trust if: (i) the trust has total assets of $5,000,000; (ii) the trust was not formed
for the sole purpose of acquiring the Securities; and (iii) the purchase of the Securities is
directed by a person who is an “accredited investor” as described under (a)(i), (ii) or (iii) above
or who together with his or her purchaser representative has such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters that he is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the
prospective investments. A revocable grantor trust may also be an accredited investor if each of
the grantors of the revocable grantor trust is an accredited investor.



     (e) Any plan established and maintained by a state, its political subdivisions, or any agency
or instrumentality of a state or its political subdivisions, for the benefit of its employees, may
be an accredited investor, if such plan has total assets in excess of $5,000,000.



     (f) For Non-U.S. Investors: The Subscriber confirms and acknowledges that it is the
responsibility of the Subscriber, as a person who is not a resident of the United States, to
satisfy himself or herself as to the full observance of the laws of any relevant territory outside
of the United States in connection with his or her proposed investment.



 









 





This includes obtaining any required governmental or other consents and observing any other
applicable formalities or requirements with respect to the Subscriber’s investment.



          3.6. Access to Management. The Subscriber confirms that, in making the decision to
purchase the Securities, the Subscriber has relied solely upon independent investigations made by
the Subscriber, and that the Subscriber has been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and to
receive answers from, management and other persons acting on behalf of the Company concerning the
Company and the terms and conditions of this Offering, and to obtain any additional information
regarding the Company and the Offering.




          3.7. Investment Intent. The Securities are being acquired by the Subscriber solely
for the personal account of the Subscriber, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to,
or in connection with, any resale or distribution thereof. The Subscriber has no contract,
undertaking, understanding, agreement or arrangement, formal or informal, with any person to sell,
transfer or pledge to any person the Securities for which the Subscriber hereby subscribes, or any
part thereof, or any interest therein or any rights thereto. The Subscriber has no present plans
to enter into any such contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement. The Subscriber must bear
the economic risk of the investment for an indefinite period of time because the Securities have
not been registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and, therefore,
cannot be sold unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws or unless an exemption from such registration is available.




          3.8. General Solicitation. The Subscriber has neither received, nor is the Subscriber
aware of, any general solicitation or general advertising of the Securities, including, without
limitation, any communication published in any newspaper or magazine or broadcast over television
or radio, or of any seminar or meeting or selling literature relating to the sale of the
Securities.




          3.9. Restrictive Legend. The Subscriber consents to the placement of a restrictive
legend on the certificate(s) or note(s) representing the Securities as required by applicable
securities laws.




          3.10. Brokers. The Subscriber is under no obligation to pay any broker’s fee or
commission in connection with this investment. Under certain circumstances, the Company may pay a
broker’s fee or commission in connection with the sale of the Securities to registered brokers,
registered dealers or certain “associated persons” of the Company, each of whom is not deemed to be
a broker pursuant to Rule 3a4-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.




          3.11. Investment Commitment Not Disproportionate to Net Worth. The Subscriber’s
overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the
Subscriber’s net worth and the Subscriber’s investment in the Company will not cause such overall
commitment to become excessive.




 









 








     4. Transferability. The Subscriber agrees not to transfer or assign this Subscription
Agreement, or any of his or her interest herein, and further agrees that the assignment and
transfer of the Securities acquired pursuant hereto shall be made only in accordance with all
applicable laws and the terms of the Securities themselves, including, but not limited to, the
Notes. The Subscriber further acknowledges that the Company may, in connection with and as a
condition to, any proposed assignment of the Securities by the Subscriber, require that the
Company’s legal counsel issue a favorable opinion regarding such proposed assignment, and in
connection therewith, may require that the Subscriber submit to the Company such evidence as may be
reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the Company to the effect that any such proposed assignment
shall not be in violation of the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws, or any rules or
regulations promulgated thereunder. The Subscriber also acknowledges and agrees that as a
condition to any such assignment, all fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Company in this
regard shall, at the discretion of the Company, be paid by the Subscriber.



     5. Indemnification. The Subscriber hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company, within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act, against any loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but
not limited to, any and all expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending
against any litigation commenced or threatened or any claim whatsoever) arising out of or based
upon any misrepresentation or any breach or default of any representation, warranty, acknowledgment
or agreement by the Subscriber hereunder.



     6. Continuing Effect of Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgments. The
representations and warranties of the Subscriber contained in Section 3 are true and accurate as of
the date of this Subscription Agreement and shall be true and accurate as of the date of delivery
to and acceptance by the Company, and shall survive such delivery and acceptance. If in any
respect such representations, warranties and acknowledgments shall not be true and accurate prior
to such delivery and acceptance, the Subscriber shall give immediate written notice of such fact to
the Company and to his or her purchaser representative(s), if any, specifying which representations
and warranties and acknowledgments are not true and accurate and the reasons therefor.



     7. Nominee Registration. If the Subscriber wishes to have the Securities registered
in the record name of a fiduciary or nominee, the Subscriber will separately complete the
“Confirmation of Beneficial Ownership” form provided by the Company, which will otherwise be
subject to and a part of this Subscription Agreement.



     8. Miscellaneous. This Subscription Agreement and the documents referenced herein
constitute the entire agreement between the parties relative to the subject matter of the sale of
the Securities, and supersede all proposals or agreements, written or oral, and all other
communications between the parties relating to the subject matter of this Subscription Agreement.
No provision of this Subscription Agreement



 









 







shall be waived, amended, modified, superseded, canceled, terminated, renewed, or extended
except in a written instrument signed by the party against whom any of the foregoing actions is
asserted. Any waiver shall be limited to the particular instance and for the particular purpose
when and for which it is given. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision of
this Subscription Agreement shall in no way effect the validity, legality or enforceability of any
other provision of this Subscription Agreement and this Subscription Agreement shall be construed
and reformed by any court of competent jurisdiction to give full effect to the essential purposes
of this Subscription Agreement. This Subscription Agreement shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware and the federal securities laws. All notices provided for in this
Subscription Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be effective when either served by
personal delivery, express overnight courier service, electronic transmission, or by first class
mail return-receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the parties at their respective
addresses herein set forth, or to such other address or addresses as either party may later specify
by written notice to the other. This Subscription Agreement may be executed in duplicate
counterparts, which, when taken together, shall constitute one instrument and each of which shall
be deemed to be an original instrument. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, in
connection with, or in relation to this Subscription Agreement or the breach of any of the
provisions hereof shall be settled by arbitration in the State of Ohio, pursuant to the rules then
pertaining to the American Arbitration Association. Any award shall be final, binding and
conclusive upon the parties and a judgment rendered thereon may be entered in any court having
competent jurisdiction thereof.
