        3.1          Investor Representations and Warranties. The undersigned hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Company and its affiliates as follows:


                       (a)          Investment Purposes. The undersigned is acquiring the Shares for his own account as principal, not as a nominee or agent, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or for, resale, distribution or fractionalization thereof in whole or in part and no other person has a direct or
        indirect beneficial interest in such Shares or any portion thereof. Further, the undersigned does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to the Shares for which the undersigned is subscribing or any part of the Shares.


                       (b)          Authority. The undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, the execution and delivery of this Agreement has been duly authorized, if applicable, and this Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the undersigned.


                       (c)          No General Solicitation. The undersigned is not subscribing for the Shares as a result of or subsequent to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, or presented at any seminar or meeting,
        or any solicitation of a subscription by person previously not known to the undersigned in connection with investment securities generally.


                       (d)          No Obligation to Register Shares.

                       (e)          Investment Experience. The undersigned is (i) experienced in making investments of the kind described in this Agreement, (ii) able, by reason of the business and financial experience of its officers (if an entity) and professional advisors (who are not affiliated with or compensated in any way by
        the Company or any of its affiliates or selling agents), to protect its own interests in connection with the transactions described in this Agreement, and (iii) able to afford the entire loss of its investment in the Shares.


                       (f)          Exemption from Registration. The undersigned acknowledges his understanding that the offering and sale of the Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under the

        


        

        

        Securities Act. In furtherance thereof, in addition to the other representations and warranties of the undersigned made herein, the undersigned further represents and warrants to and agrees with the Company and its affiliates as follows:


                                      (1)          The undersigned realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if, notwithstanding such representations, the undersigned has in mind merely acquiring the Shares for a fixed or determinable period in
        the future, or for a market rise, or for sale if the market does not rise. The undersigned does not have any such intention;


                                      (2)          The undersigned has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of his investment, has adequate means for providing for his current needs and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity with respect to
        his investment in the Company; and


                                      (3)          The undersigned has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares. The undersigned also represents
        it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Shares; and


                                      (4)          The undersigned has been provided an opportunity for a reasonable period of time prior to the date hereof to obtain additional information concerning the offering of the Shares, the Company and all other
        information to the extent the Company possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense.


                       (g)          Economic Considerations. The undersigned is not relying on the Company, or its affiliates or agents with respect to economic considerations involved in this investment. The undersigned has relied solely on its own advisors.


                       (h)          No Other Company Representations. No representations or warranties have been made to the undersigned by the Company, or any officer, employee, agent, affiliate or subsidiary of the Company, other than the representations of the Company contained herein, and in subscribing for Shares the
        undersigned is not relying upon any representations other than those contained herein.


                       (i)          Compliance with Laws. Any resale of the Shares during the ‘distribution compliance period’ as defined in Rule 902(f) to Regulation S shall only be made in compliance with exemptions from registration afforded by Regulation S. Further, any such sale of the Shares in any jurisdiction
        outside of the United States will be made in compliance with the securities laws of such jurisdiction. The Investor will not offer to sell or sell the Shares in any jurisdiction unless the Investor obtains all required consents, if any.


                       (j)          Rule 144.

        month period a number of shares which does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding Shares and (ii) the undersigned may (if non-affiliated) may sell without such limitations, provided the Company is current in its public reporting obligations. Rule 144 also permits the sale of shares by non-affiliates that have satisfied a one year holding period without any limitation or restriction. The undersigned further understands and acknowledges that
        because the Company is a shell company, the undersigned may not sell the Shares under Rule 144 unless the following conditions are met: (1) the Company has ceased to be a shell company, (2) the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), (3) the Company has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the

                       (k)          Regulation S Exemption. The undersigned understands that the Shares are being offered and sold to him in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws under Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act and that the Company is
        relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Investor set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of the Investor to acquire the Shares. In this regard, the undersigned represents, warrants and agrees that:


                                      (1)          The undersigned is not a U.S. Person (as defined below) and is not an affiliate (as defined in Rule 501(b) under the Securities Act) of the Company and is not acquiring the Shares for the account or benefit of a
        U.S. Person. A U.S. Person means any one of the following:


                                                     (A)          any natural person resident in the United States of America;


                                                     (B)          any partnership or corporation organized or incorporated under the laws of the United States of America;


                                                     (C)          any estate of which any executor or administrator is a U.S. person;


                                                     (D)          any trust of which any trustee is a U.S. person;


                                                     (E)          any agency or branch of a foreign entity located in the United States of America;


                                                     (F)          any non-discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary for the
        benefit or account of a U.S. person;

        


        

        

                                                     (G)          any discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary organized,
        incorporated or (if an individual) resident in the United States of America; and


                                                     (H)          any partnership or corporation if:


                                                                     (i)          organized or incorporated
        under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction; and


                                                                     (ii)          formed by a U.S. person
        principally for the purpose of investing in securities not registered under the Securities Act, unless it is organized or incorporated, and owned, by accredited investors (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act) who are not natural persons, estates or trusts.

                                      (3)          The undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date of issuance of the Shares and ending on the first anniversary of such date, or such shorter period as may be permitted by Regulation S or other
        applicable securities law (the “Restricted Period”), offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares in the United States, or to a U.S. Person for the account or for the benefit of a U.S. Person, or otherwise in a manner that is not in compliance with Regulation S.


                                      (4)          The undersigned will, after expiration of the Restricted Period, offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares only pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or an available exemption therefrom and,
        in accordance with all applicable state and foreign securities laws.


                                      (5)          The undersigned was not in the United States, engaged in, and prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period will not engage in, any short selling of or any hedging transaction with respect to the Shares,
        including without limitation, any put, call or other option transaction, option writing or equity swap.


                                      (6)          Neither the undersigned nor or any person acting on his behalf has engaged, nor will engage, in any directed selling efforts to a U.S. Person with respect to the Shares and the Investor and any person acting on his
        behalf have complied and will comply with the “offering restrictions” requirements of Regulation S under the Securities Act.


                                      (7)          The transactions contemplated by this Agreement have not been pre-arranged with a buyer located in the United States or with a U.S. Person, and are not part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration
        requirements of the Securities Act.

        


        

        

                                      (8)          Neither the undersigned nor any person acting on his behalf has undertaken or carried out any activity for the purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the market in the
        United States, its territories or possessions, for any of the Shares. The undersigned agrees not to cause any advertisement of the Shares to be published in any newspaper or periodical or posted in any public place and not to issue any circular relating to the Shares, except such advertisements that include the statements required by Regulation S under the Securities Act, and only offshore and not in the U.S. or its territories, and only in compliance with any local applicable
        securities laws.


                                      (9)          Each certificate representing the Shares shall be endorsed with the following legends, in addition to any other legend required to be placed thereon by applicable federal or state securities laws:


                                                     (A)          “THE SECURITIES ARE BEING OFFERED TO INVESTORS WHO ARE NOT U.S. PERSONS (AS DEFINED IN REGULATION S UNDER THE
        SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (“THE SECURITIES ACT”)) AND WITHOUT REGISTRATION WITH THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT IN RELIANCE UPON REGULATION S PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.”


                                                     (B)          “TRANSFER OF THESE SECURITIES IS PROHIBITED, EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S, PURSUANT TO
        REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT.”


                                      (10)          The undersigned consents to the Company making a notation on its records or giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Company in order to implement the restrictions on transfer of the Shares set forth in
        this Section 2.


                       (l)           Accredited Investor. The undersigned is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act by reason of Rule 501(a)(3).


                       (m)         Potential Loss of Investment; Risk Factors. The undersigned understands that an investment in the Shares is a speculative investment which involves a high degree of risk and the potential loss of his entire investment. The undersigned understands that the following factors, among others, could cause
        the loss of any or all of his investment.


                                      (1)          The Company is a development stage company with no operating history for the undersigned to evaluate its business. The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada in January 2006, and as a result is only in the
        very early stages of development. Because the Company has no operating history, it is difficult to evaluate its business and future prospects. The undersigned has also considered the uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by companies, such as the Company, in their early stages of development. The Company’s revenue

        


        

        

        and income potential is unproven and its business model is still emerging. If its business model does not prove to be profitable, the undersigned may lose all of his investment.


                                       (2)          The Company currently does not have enough working capital to satisfy its capital needs. The Company is dependent upon its management team to fund its ongoing operations, and cannot be certain that future
        financing will be available to it on acceptable terms when it needs it. The Company can give no assurances that it will be able to sell any portion of this offering or that management will continue to fund its ongoing operations. This, along with the possibility of other factors and circumstances the Company cannot predict, may require it to seek additional financing faster than anticipated. If the Company is unable to obtain financing to meet its needs, the undersigned may lose of his
        investment.


                                       (3)          The Company’s officers and directors will only devote a limited amount of time to the Company. Their divided interests may hinder the Company’s ability to generate revenue. This could result in
        missed business opportunities and worse-than-expected operating results. The undersigned may lose his entire investment.


                                       (4)          Management has never operated in the industry in which it intends to operate. This lack of experience may result in the Company’s needing to employ outside experts that have such experience. The
        additional cost could result in a net operating loss and, ultimately, could result in the Company’s failure. Management’s inexperience may limit the Company’s ability to generate revenues. The Company may never achieve successful operations, and the undersigned may lose his entire investment.


                       (n)          Investment Commitment. The undersigned’s overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the undersigned’s net worth, and an investment in the Shares will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive.


                       (o)          Receipt of Information. The undersigned has received all documents, records, books and other information pertaining to the undersigned’s investment in the Company that has been requested by the undersigned.


                       (p)          Investor Questionnaire. The undersigned represents and warrants to the Company that all information that the undersigned has provided to the Company, including, without limitation, the information in the Investor Questionnaire attached hereto or previously provided to the Company (the
        “Investor Questionnaire”), is correct and complete as of the date hereof.


                       (q)          No Reliance. Other than as set forth herein, the undersigned is not relying upon any other information, representation or warranty by the Company or any officer, director, stockholder, agent or representative of the Company in determining to invest in the Shares. The undersigned has consulted, to
        the extent deemed appropriate by the undersigned, with the undersigned’s own advisers as to the financial, tax, legal and related matters concerning an investment in the Shares and on that basis believes that his or its investment in the Shares is suitable and appropriate for the undersigned.

        


        

        

                       (r)          No Governmental Review. The undersigned is aware that no federal or state agency has (i) made any finding or determination as to the fairness of this investment, (ii) made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares or the Company, or (iii) guaranteed or insured any investment in the Shares
        or any investment made by the Company.


                       (s)          Price of Shares. The undersigned understands that the price of the Shares offered hereby bear no relation to the assets, book value or net worth of the Company and were determined arbitrarily by the Company. The undersigned further understands that there is a substantial risk of further dilution
        on his or its investment in the Company.


        SECTION 4.


        4.1          Company’s Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to the undersigned as follows:


                       (a)          Organization of the Company. The Company is a corporation duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada.


                       (b)          Authority. (a) The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to issue the Shares; (b) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and
        thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and no further consent or authorization of the Company or its Board of Directors or stockholders is required; and (c) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws relating to, or
        affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors’ rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.


                       (c)          SEC Documents. To the best of Company’s knowledge, the Company has not provided to the undersigned any information that, according to applicable law, rule or regulation, should have been disclosed publicly prior to the date hereof by the Company, but which has not been so disclosed. As of
        their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and other federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations applicable to such SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
        under which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents comply as to form and substance in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or other applicable rules and regulations with respect thereto.

                     If the answer to the above question is “Yes,” please contact David Lubin, Esq. at (516) 887-8200 for additional information that will be required.


        4(a).      Please indicate whether or not the Investor is, or is acting on behalf of, (i) an employee benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA, whether or not such plan is subject to ERISA, or (ii) an entity which is deemed to hold the assets of any such employee benefit plan pursuant to 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101. For example, a plan which is maintained by a foreign corporation, governmental entity
        or church, a Keogh plan covering no common-law employees and an individual retirement account are employee benefit plans within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA but generally are not subject to ERISA (collectively, “Non-ERISA Plans”). In general, a foreign or US entity which is not an operating company and which is not publicly traded or registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as

        


        

        

        amended, and in which 25% or more of the value of any class of equity interest is held by employee pension or welfare plans (including an entity which is deemed to hold the assets of any such plan), would be deemed to hold the assets of one or more employee benefit plans pursuant to 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101. However, if only Non-ERISA Plans were invested in such an entity, the entity generally would not be subject to ERISA. For purposes of
        determining whether this 25% threshold has been met or exceeded, the value of any equity interest held by a person (other than such a plan or entity) who has discretionary authority or control with respect to the assets of the entity, or any person who provides investment advice for a fee (direct or indirect) with respect to such assets, or any affiliate of such a person, is disregarded.

        Related Person includes any owner of the Family Company and any person who is a Related Person of such an owner. “Family Company” means a company that is owned directly or indirectly by or for two or more natural persons who are related as siblings or spouse (including former spouses), or direct lineal descendants by birth or adoption, spouses of such persons, the estates of such persons, or foundations, charitable organizations or trusts

This general rule is subject to the following provisos:


                  (1)          In the case of Commodity Shares, the amount of investments shall be the value of the initial margin or option premium deposited in connection with such Commodity Shares; and
