The “Individual Put Limit” shall equal the lesser of (A) the Company Designated Maximum Put Dollar Amount divided by the Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price (the “Maximum Share Amount”), (B) 15% of the sum of the aggregate daily reported Trading Volumes in the outstanding Common Stock on the Company’s Principal Market for all Evaluation Days (as defined below) in the Pricing Period, excluding any block trades that exceed 20,000 shares of Common Stock (“Excluded Block Trades”), (C) the number of Put Shares which, when multiplied by their respective Put Share Prices, equals the Maximum Put Dollar Amount, and (D) the 4.9% Limitation (collectively referred to herein as the “Volume Limitations”).  Company agrees not to trade Common Stock or arrange for Common Stock to be traded for the purpose of artificially increasing the Volume Limitations.







For purposes of this Agreement:







"Trigger Price" for any Pricing Period shall mean the greater of (i) the Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price divided by 0.98 or (ii) the Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price, plus $0.01.


 




  





14











  











An “Excluded Day” shall mean each Trading Day during a Pricing Period where the lowest intra-day trading price of the Common Stock is less than the Trigger Price and each Trading Day defined in Section 2.3.4 as an “Excluded Day.”







An “Evaluation Day” shall mean each Trading Day during a Pricing Period that is not an Excluded Day.







(c) Put Share Price.  The purchase price for the Put Shares (the “Put Share Price”) shall equal the lesser of (i) 98% of the Market Price for such Put or (ii) the Market Price for such Put minus $0.01, but shall in no event be less than the Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price for such Put, if applicable.







(d) Delivery of Put Notice.  After delivery of an Advance Put Notice and subject to the Minimum Lead-In Price Restriction, on the Put Date specified in the Advance Put Notice the Company shall deliver written notice (the “Put Notice,” the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C) to Investor stating (i) the Put Date, (ii) the Intended Put Share Amount as specified in the Advance Put Notice (such exercise a “Put”), (iii) the Company Designated Maximum Put Dollar Amount (if applicable), and (iv) the Company Designated Minimum Put Share Price (if applicable).  In order to effect delivery of the Put Notice, the Company shall (i) send the Put Notice by facsimile on the Put Date so that such notice is received by the Investor by 4:00 p.m., New York, NY time, and (ii) surrender such notice on the Put Date to a courier for overnight delivery to the Investor (or two (2) day delivery in the case of an Investor residing outside of the U.S.).

On or before the Put Date for such Put, the Company shall deliver the Required Put Documents (as defined in Section 2.3.6 below) to the Investor (or to an agent of Investor, if Investor so directs).  Unless otherwise specified by the Investor, the Put Shares of Common Stock shall be delivered to the Investor in accordance with Section 2.3 by crediting the Investor’s or its designees’ account at DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system.


 


 (f) Limitation on Investor's Obligation to Purchase Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Investor be required to purchase, and an Intended Put Share Amount may not include, an amount of Put Shares, which when added to the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company then beneficially owned by the Investor as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, would exceed 4.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (on a fully diluted basis, to the extent that inclusion of unissued shares is mandated by Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) on the Put Date for such Pricing Period (the “Section 13(d) Outstanding Share Amount”).  Each Put Notice shall include a representation of the Company as to the Section 13(d) Outstanding Share Amount on the related Put Date.  In the event that the Section 13(d) Outstanding Share Amount is different on any date during a Pricing Period than on the Put Date associated with such Pricing Period, then the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date during such Pricing Period shall govern for purposes of determining whether the number of shares beneficially owned by the Investor following the issuance of the subject Put Shares, would constitute in excess of 4.9% of the Section 13(d) Outstanding Share Amount.  The limitation set forth in this Section 2.3.1(f) is referred to as the “4.9% Limitation.”

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company will immediately notify the Investor or its advisors or representatives of the existence of any event or circumstance (without any obligation to disclose the specific event or circumstance) of which it becomes aware after the Registration Statement is declared effective, constituting material non-public information (whether or not requested of the Company specifically or generally during the course of due diligence by such persons or entities), which, if not disclosed in the prospectus included in the Registration Statement would cause such prospectus to include a material misstatement or to omit a material fact required to be stated therein in order to make the statements, therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading and the Company shall, a soon as possible but in any event within three (3) Trading Days of becoming aware of such material non-public information, file with the SEC an amendment to the Registration Statement or, if permitted by law, a supplement to the then-current Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement, responsive to such alleged untrue statement or omission and provide the Investor, as promptly as practicable, with copies of the Registration Statement and related Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement, as so amended or modified. The Company shall not disclose material nonpublic information to the Investor or to its advisors or representatives unless prior to disclosure of such information the Company identifies such information as being material nonpublic information and provides the Investor and such advisors and representatives with the opportunity to accept or refuse to accept such nonpublic information for review.  The Company may, as a condition to disclosing any nonpublic information to the Investor hereunder, require the Investor and its advisors and representatives to first enter into a confidentiality agreement (including an agreement with such advisors and representatives prohibiting them from trading in Common Stock during such period of time as they are in possession of material nonpublic information) in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Investor.  The Company shall ensure that any information disclosed by the Company to the Investor in connection with the Agreement shall cease to be material non-public information on or prior to the Liquidity Date and that if any material non-public information arises in the future, the Prospectus shall be promptly amended or supplemented to cover such information in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.


 


2.4.2   Disclosure of Misstatements and Omissions.

2.4.3   Procedure if Material Facts are Reasonably Believed to be Untrue or are Omitted.  In the event after consultation with the Company or its counsel, the Investor or the Investor's counsel reasonably believes that the Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, and the Company, after a request from the Investor, has failed to promptly provide reasonable information indicating that that the Registration Statement is in fact complete, accurate and current, then







(a) the Company shall promptly file with the SEC an amendment to the Registration Statement or, if permitted by law, a supplement to the then-current Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement, responsive to such alleged untrue statement or omission and provide the Investor, as promptly as practicable, with copies of the Registration Statement and related Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement, as so amended or modified, or

For the purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness ” shall mean (a) any liabilities for borrowed money (other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (b) all guaranties, endorsements, indemnities and other contingent obligations in respect of Indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the Company’s balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (c) the present value of any lease payments due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP.

5.12  Intellectual Property.  The Company has valid, unrestricted and exclusive ownership of or rights to use the patents, trademarks, trademark registrations, trade names, copyrights, know-how, technology and other intellectual property necessary to the conduct of its business.

5.13 Former Shell Company.  The Company is not a “Shell Company” within the meaning of Rule 144(i) of Rule 405 of the Act, and has not been a Shell Company since September 30, 2010, on which date the Company filed current “Form 10 information” with the Commission reflecting its status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1).

Pursuant to Rule 144(i) under the Securities Act, securities issued by a current or former shell company (such as the Securities) that otherwise meet the holding period and other requirements of Rule 144 nevertheless cannot be sold in reliance on Rule 144 until one year after the date on which such company filed current “Form 10 information” (as defined in Rule 144(i)) with the SEC reflecting that it ceased being a shell company (and that, in the Company’s case, such Form 10 Information was filed on September 10, 2010), and provided that at the time of a proposed sale pursuant to Rule 144, the issuer is subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports.  As a result, shares issued without legend may need to be returned to have such legend affixed to them in the event that the Registration Statement is not effective and the Company ceases to be subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or fails to file a required report, subject to legend removal once a Legend Removal Condition has again been met.







5.14 No Rights of Participation.  No person or entity, including, but not limited to, current or former stockholders of the Company, underwriters, brokers, agents or other third parties, has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the financing contemplated by this Agreement which has not been waived.

The number of shares of Common Stock issuable as Put Shares may increase substantially in certain circumstances, including, but not necessarily limited to, the circumstance wherein the trading price of the Common Stock declines during the period between the Effective Date and the end of the Commitment Period.  The Company’s executive officers and directors fully understand the nature of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and recognize that they have a potential dilutive effect.  The board of directors of the Company has concluded, in its good faith business judgment, that such issuance is in the best interests of the Company.  The Company specifically acknowledges that, whenever the Company elects to initiate a Put, its obligation to issue the Put Shares is binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other shareholders of the Company.  The Company acknowledges that the Investor may sell shares of Common Stock during any Pricing Period, and may enter into a short exempt sale or any short sale or other hedging or similar arrangement in accordance with Section 2.3.11 during any Pricing Period, and that such sales, short sales or hedging arrangements may serve to lower the Purchase Price thereby having a potential dilutive effect on the Company’s Common Stock.

The Investor shall use one or more broker-dealers to effectuate all sales, if any, of Securities that it may purchase or otherwise acquire from the Company pursuant to the Transaction Documents, as applicable, which (or whom) shall be unaffiliated with the Investor and not then currently engaged or used by the Company (collectively, the “Broker-Dealer”). The Investor shall be solely responsible for all fees and commissions of the Broker-Dealer, which shall not exceed customary brokerage fees and commissions.

7.           Subscription and Wiring Instructions; Irrevocability.








	
  

	
(a)

	
Wire transfer of Subscription Funds.  Investor shall deliver Put Dollar Amounts (as payment towards any Put Share Price) by wire transfer, to the Company pursuant to a wire instruction letter to be provided by the Company, and signed by the Company.













	
  

	
(b)

	
Irrevocable Subscription.  Investor hereby acknowledges and agrees, subject to the provisions of any applicable laws providing for the refund of subscription amounts submitted by Investor, that this Agreement is irrevocable and that Investor is not entitled to cancel, terminate or revoke this Agreement or any other agreements executed by such Investor and delivered pursuant hereto, and that this Agreement and such other agreements shall survive the death or disability of such Investor and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and assigns.












8.           Indemnification.







In consideration of the Investor’s execution and delivery of the Investment Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless Investor and all of its stockholders, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing person’s agents, members, partners or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any material misrepresentation or omission, or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in the Prospectus, Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or documents contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any material breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (c) any cause of action, suit or claim, derivative or otherwise, by any stockholder of the Company based on a breach or alleged breach by the Company or any of its officers or directors of their fiduciary or other obligations to the stockholders of the Company or (d) any action, suit, claim or proceeding (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) instituted against any Indemnitee arising out of or resulting from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents, excluding liability resulting from a breach of the Investor’s representations and warranties or the Investor’s fraud or willful misconduct.


 




  





46











  











To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which it would be required to make if such foregoing undertaking was enforceable which is permissible under applicable law.







Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the commencement of any action pursuant to which indemnification may be sought, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the other party (hereinafter “Indemnitor”) under this Section 8, deliver to the Indemnitor a written notice of the commencement thereof and the Indemnitor shall have the right to participate in and to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably selected by the Indemnitor.  The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, to the extent that such failure is materially prejudicial to the Indemnitor’s ability to defend such action, shall relieve the Indemnitor of liability to the Indemnified Party under this Section 8, but the omission to so deliver written notice to the Indemnitor will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party other than under this Section 8 to the extent it is prejudicial.







9.           Miscellaneous.







9.1           Representations and Warranties Survive the Closing; Severability.  Investor’s and the Company’s representations and warranties shall survive the Investment Date and any Put Closing contemplated by this Agreement notwithstanding any due diligence investigation made by or on behalf of the party seeking to rely thereon.  In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, or is altered by a term required by the Securities Exchange Commission to be included in the Registration Statement, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision; provided that if the removal of such provision materially changes the economic benefit of this Agreement to the Investor, this Agreement shall terminate.







9.2           Successors and Assigns.  The Transaction Documents, including this Investment Agreement, shall not be assignable by the Investor.  The Transaction Documents, including this Investment Agreement, shall not be assignable by the Company except in conjunction with a transaction permitted under the terms of Section 6.2 above.







9.3           Execution in Counterparts Permitted.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, all of which together shall constitute one (1)  and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties.  This Agreement, once executed by a party, may be delivered to the other parties hereto by facsimile transmission or an e-mailed “PDF” of a copy of this Agreement bearing the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement.







9.4           Titles and Subtitles; Gender.  The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

This Agreement, including the Exhibits attached hereto, the Common Stock certificates, the Registration Rights Agreement, and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof, and no party shall be liable or bound to any other party in any manner by any warranties, representations or covenants, whether oral, written, or otherwise except as specifically set forth herein or therein.  Except as expressly provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. The Disclosure Documents and all exhibits to this Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference in, and made a part of, this Agreement as if set forth in full herein.







9.8           Headings.  The article, section and subsection headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.”  The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.  







9.9           Reporting Entity for the Common Stock.  The reporting entity relied upon for the determination of the trading price or trading volume of the Common Stock on the Principal Market on any given Trading Day for the purposes of this Agreement shall be the Bloomberg L.P.

9.10           Fees and Expenses.


 


(i)  Commitment Shares and Fee Shares. Not later than three (3) Business Days after the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, in consideration for the Investor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall issue to the Investor a number of shares of restricted Common Stock (the “Commitment Shares”) having a value equal to $140,000 (the “Commitment Fee”)(which represents 1.4% of the Maximum Offering Amount) plus an additional number of shares of restricted Common Stock (the “Fee Shares”) having a value equal to $10,000.00 (the “Legal/Due Diligence Fee”), in each case based upon a deemed valuation per share equal to 100% of the VWAP of the Company’s Common Stock for the 5 trading days immediately preceding the date of issuance of such shares.  The certificate(s) representing the Commitment Shares and Fee Shares shall be delivered to the Investor by overnight courier at its address set forth in Section 9.12 hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, all of the Commitment Shares and Fee Shares shall be fully earned as of the Commitment Closing Date regardless of whether or not any Registration Statement is filed or declared effective and regardless of whether any Puts are issued by the Company or settled hereunder. Upon issuance, the Commitment Shares and the Fee Shares shall constitute “restricted securities” as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act and, subject to the provisions of subsection (iv) of this Section 9.10, the certificate(s) representing the Commitment Shares and Fee Shares shall bear the restrictive legend set forth below in subsection (iii) of this Section 9.10. The Commitment Shares and Fee Shares shall constitute Registrable Securities and shall be included in the Registration Statement in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.  If at any time after the date that is six (6) months from the date of this Agreement, any outstanding Commitment Shares and Fee Shares cannot be sold under Rule 144 without volume restrictions or pursuant to a current and effective Registration Statement for an aggregate of 5 Trading Days during any 20 Trading Day period (the date of such occurrence, the “Redemption Trigger Date”), the Company shall be required to redeem the Commitment Shares and Fee Shares, in cash, for an amount equal to the greater of (i) the pro rata portion of the Commitment Fee and Legal/Due Diligence Fee represented by such shares or (ii) the number of Commitment Shares and Fee Shares being redeemed, multiplied by the average of the VWAPS for the five (5) Trading Days immediately prior to the Redemption Trigger Date, payable within three (3) Trading Days of the Redemption Trigger Date.







(ii)  Legends. The certificate representing the Commitment Shares and the certificate representing the Fees Shares, except as set forth below, shall each bear a restrictive legend (“Legend”) in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificate):


 



THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER (IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY), IN A FORM REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD OR ELIGIBLE TO BE SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.


 




  





49











  








 


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, all Shares to be issued in respect of any Put Notice delivered to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement shall be issued to the Investor in accordance with Section 2.3 by crediting the Investor’s or its designees’ account at DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system, and all such Shares shall be freely tradable and transferable and without any restrictive legends or restrictions on resale (and no stop-transfer order shall be placed against transfer thereof), and the Company shall not take any action or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company otherwise.


 


(iii)  Removal of Legend.  If either (a) the Registration Statement is Effective, or (b) such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope reasonably acceptable to counsel for the Company (the reasonable cost of which shall be borne by the Investor), to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Security may be made without registration under the Act, or (c) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances (which assurances shall be adequate to the Company or the Company’s counsel) that such Security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 (each, a “Legend Removal Condition”), then the Company shall, no later than two Trading Days following the delivery by the Investor to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing the Commitment Shares and a legended certificate representing the Fee Shares (each endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer, if applicable), as directed by the Investor, either: (A) issue and deliver (or cause to be issued and delivered) to the Investor a certificate(s) representing such Commitment Shares and Fee Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends or (B) cause the Company’s transfer agent to credit the investor’s or its designee’s account at DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system with a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Commitment Shares and Fee Shares represented by the certificate(s) so delivered by the Investor (the date by which such certificate is required to be delivered to the investor or such credit is so required to be made to the account of the Investor or its designee at DTC pursuant to the foregoing is referred to herein as the “Required Delivery Date ”).


 


9.11           Specific Enforcement, Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction, Waiver of Jury Trial.


 


(i)  The Company and the Investor acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that either party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement by the other party and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof (without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required), this being in addition to any other remedy to which either party may be entitled by law or equity.


 




  





50











  






 


(ii) Governing Law and Jurisdiction.  All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Georgia without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.  Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Atlanta, Georgia.

Investment Commitment Opinion







Gentlepersons,







We have acted as special counsel to Forex International Trading Corp., a Nevada corporation ("Company"), in connection with the Investment Agreement, dated as of June 27, 2011, by and between the Company and the Investor named therein ("Investment Agreement"), and the issuance and sale of shares of the Company's Common Stock, $.00001 par value ("Common Stock"), provided for thereunder.  This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 6.7 of the Investment Agreement.  Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Investment Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement described therein.







In connection with and as the basis for these opinions, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to us, of certain documents, corporate records and other instruments, including the following (i) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, certified by the Secretary of the Company; (ii) By-laws of the Company as in effect on June 27, 2011, as certified by an officer of the Company, (iii) a certificate dated June 16, 2011 by the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada regarding the existence and good standing of the Company as a corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada and a review of the Nevada State Secretary of State's internet website as to the Company's continued good standing; (iv) the minute books of the Company, including copies, certified to our satisfaction, of resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on June 27, 2011, (v) the Investment Agreement; (vi) the Registration Rights Agreement; and (vii) Irrevocable Instructions to Transfer Agents.  The foregoing are sometimes referred to in this Opinion as the "Transaction Documents."







We have also examined such other documents, records, certificates and questions of law as we have considered necessary or appropriate for the purpose of this opinion.







We have also examined, relied upon, and assumed the accuracy, where appropriate, of the representations and warranties of the Company and the other parties thereto contained in the Transaction Documents as to the matters of fact therein represented.  As to certain questions of fact material to the opinions contained herein, we have, when appropriate, relied upon the representations of each party made in the Investment Agreement and other Transaction Documents and certificates or statements of public officials and officers and agents of the Company, and we have assumed that any certificates or statements of public officials dated earlier than the date hereof are accurate on the date hereof as if made on and as of such date.


 




  





56











  











In our examination of Transaction Documents described above, we have assumed the genuine of all signatures of parties other than the Company, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted to us as copies.







With respect to our opinions in paragraph 2 hereof that the Commitment Shares, the Fee Shares the Put Shares, when issued, upon exercise of a Put and any other shares of Common Stock issued in fulfillment of the terms of the Transaction Documents, respectively, will be validly issued, we have assumed that (i) such Common Stock will be evidenced by appropriate certificates, duly executed and delivered and (ii) the Company will maintain a sufficient number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, at all times while the Investment Agreement is outstanding, to permit the issuance of the Put Shares in accordance with their terms.







In addition, we have assumed that the representations and warranties as to factual matters and acknowledgments made by each Investor in Sections 3 and 4 of the Investment Agreement are true.  We have also assumed that each Investor has received all of the documents that each Investor was required to receive under the Investment Agreement.







Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the qualifications, limitations and assumptions set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof:


 


1.The Company is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the State of Nevada.  The Company has the corporate power and authority to carry on its business as currently conducted.  The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation in every jurisdiction that such qualification is necessary, except where the failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect.







2.To the best of our knowledge, based solely on review of th Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company is not a “Shell Company” within the meaning of Rule 144(i) of Rule 405 of the Act, and has not been a Shell Company since September 30, 2010 at which time the Company filed current “Form 10 information” with the Commission reflecting its status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1).


3.The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, the issuance of the Common Stock, the issuance of the Commitment Shares, the Fee Shares and the Put Shares have been duly approved by all required corporate action on the part of the Company, and except for approval by the Company's stockholders of the issuance of Common Stock in excess of the Cap Amount, no further consents of the Company or its Board of Directors or stockholders are required.


 




  





57











  











4.In the Course of the preparation of the Transaction Documents, which involved, among other things, discussions and inquiries concerning the various legal matters and the review of certain corporate records, documents and proceedings, we participated in conferences with certain officers and other representatives of the Company during which the contents of the Transaction Documents and related matters were discussed, and we advised the Company as to the requirements of the Securities Act (including Regulation D thereunder) and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder.  During the course of the representation nothing has come to our attention to cause us to have reason to believe that the Transaction Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.







5.The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 400,000,000 shares of Common Stock ($.00001 par value) and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock ($.00001 par value).  The outstanding shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock of the Company are validly authorized and issued, fully paid and non-assessable, without any personal liability attaching to the ownership thereof, and such shares of capital stock have not been issued, and are not owned or held in violation of any preemptive or similar rights of stockholders known to me.







6.When the Put Shares are issued in accordance with the Investment Agreement, such shares of Common Stock will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock of the Company, free of all statutory or, to our knowledge, preemptive or similar rights.

Assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and agreements of each Investor to each Investment Agreement, the Company is not required to obtain any consent, approval or action of, or make any filings with, or give any notice to, any corporation, person or firm or any public, governmental or judicial authority, except as may have been duly obtained or made, as the case may be, and are in full force and effect (other than any SEC, FINRA or state securities filings set forth in the Investment Agreement which may be required to be made by the Company, any registration statement under the Act which may be filed pursuant to the Transaction Documents and authorization by the Company's stockholders of the issuance of the securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents) in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under the Transaction Documents or issue and sell the securities in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents.

Re:  

	
Forex International Trading Corp..







Put Opinion







Gentlepersons,







We have acted as special counsel to Forex International Trading Corp., a Nevada corporation ("Company"), in connection with the Regulation D Common Stock Private Equity Line Investment Agreement, dated as of June ___, 2011, by and between the Company and the Investor named therein (“Investment Agreement”), and the issuance and sale of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $.00001 par value (“Common Stock”), provided for thereunder.  This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 2.3.5(b) of the Investment Agreement in connection with the Put Notice and Closing provided for therein.  Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Investment Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement.







In connection with and as the basis for these opinions, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to me, of certain documents, corporate records and other instruments, including the following (i) the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, certified by the Secretary of the Company; (ii) the By-laws of the Company as in effect on _________, 20__, as certified by an officer of the Company, (iii) a certificate dated __________, 20___ by the Secretary of State of the State of __________ regarding the existence and good standing of the Company as a corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada and a review of the Nevada Secretary of State’s internet website as to the Company's continued good standing; (iv) the minute books of the Company, including copies, certified to our satisfaction, of resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on _________, 20__, (v) the Investment Agreement; (vi) the Registration Rights Agreement; (vii) Irrevocable Instructions to Transfer Agents.  The foregoing are sometimes referred to in this Opinion as the “Transaction Documents.”







We have also examined such other documents, records, certificates and questions of law as we have considered necessary or appropriate for the purpose of this opinion.







We have also examined, relied upon, and assumed the accuracy, where appropriate, of the representations and warranties of the Company and the other parties thereto contained in the Transaction Documents as to the matters of fact therein represented.  As to certain questions of fact material to the opinions contained herein, we have, when appropriate, relied upon the representations of each party made in the Investment Agreement and other Transaction Documents and certificates or statements of public officials and officers and agents of the Company, and we have assumed that any certificates or statements of public officials dated earlier date hereof are accurate on the date hereof as if made on and as of such date.







In our examination of Transaction Documents described above, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures of parties other than the Company, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted to us as copies.


 




  





62











  











With respect to our opinions in paragraph 2 hereof that the Put Shares, when issued, upon exercise of the Puts Shares and any shares of Common Stock issued in fulfillment of the terms of the Transaction Documents, respectively, will be validly issued, we have assumed that (i) such Common Stock will be evidenced by appropriate certificates, duly executed and delivered and (ii) the Company will maintain a sufficient number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, at all times while the Investment Agreement is outstanding, to permit the issuance of the Put Shares.







In addition, we have assumed that the representations and warranties as to factual matters and acknowledgments made by each Investor in Sections 3 and 4 of the Investment Agreement are true.  We have also assumed that each Investor has received all of the documents that each Investor was required to receive under the Investment Agreement.







Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the qualifications, limitations and assumptions set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof:







1. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws the State of Nevada.  The Company has the corporate power and authority to carry on its business as currently conducted.  The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation in every jurisdiction that such qualification is necessary, except where the failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect.







2. When the Put Shares are issued in accordance with the Investment Agreement, such shares of Common Stock will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock of the Company, free of all statutory or, to our knowledge, preemptive or similar rights.







3.  The Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered and are valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.


 


4. It will not be necessary, in connection with the issuance and sale of the Put Shares, to register such securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as Amended (“Securities Act”) and applicable state securities laws, and such issuance and sale are exempt from such registration under Section 4(2) and/or Regulation D Rule 506 of the Securities Act.







5. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, the issuance of the Commitment Shares, the Fee Shares and the Put Shares have been duly approved by all required corporate action on the part of the Company, and no further consents of the Company or its Board of Directors or stockholders are required.







6.  To the best of our knowledge, based solely on review of the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company is not a “Shell Company” within the meaning of Rule 144(i) of Rule 405 of the Act, and has not been a Shell Company since the Company filed current “Form 10 information” with the Commission reflecting its status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1) on September 30, 2010.   The Company is current in all of its 1934 Act Filings, and has filed all reports required under the 1934 Act for the preceding 12 months Even though the Company was at one time a Shell Company under Rule 144(i)(1)(i), the shares issued or to be issued to the Investor as of the Closing, including but not limited to the Commitment Shares, the Fee Shares and the Put Shares issued pursuant to the Investment Agreement, shall be freely tradable by the Investor pursuant to Rule 144 six (6) months after the date of such issuance, provided that the Company remains current in its public reporting under the 1934 Act hereafter.


 




  





63











  











7. In the course of the preparation of the Transaction Documents, which involved, among other things, discussions and inquiries concerning the various legal matters and the review of certain corporate records, documents and proceedings, we participated in conferences with certain officers and other representatives of the Company during which the contents of the Transaction Documents and related matters were discussed, and we advised the Company as to the requirements of the Securities Act (including Regulation D thereunder) and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder.  During the course of the representation nothing has come to our attention to cause us to have reason to believe that the Transaction Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.







8. To our knowledge, there is no litigation, arbitration, claim, governmental or other proceeding (formal or informal), or investigation pending or threatened, with respect to the Company or any of its operations, businesses, properties, or assets, except as may be properly described in the Company's reports filed under the Exchange Act, or such as individually or in the aggregate do not now have, and will not in the future have, a material adverse effect upon the operations, business, properties or assets of the Company.







The opinions set forth herein are subject to the following qualifications, limitations and assumptions:







(a) Our opinion in paragraph 3 above as to the enforceability of the Transaction Documents is subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws and legal principles of general application now or hereafter in effect relating to or limiting the rights of creditors, and (ii) such opinion does not mean that 







(x) any particular remedy is available upon a material default or 







(y) that a court will enforce every provision of a contract exactly as it is written.  In addition, certain provisions of the Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, indemnification provisions and provisions in the nature of liquidated damages or penalties) may not be enforceable in whole or in part under the laws or public policies of the United States or the State of Georgia.







(b) We have assumed (i) that the Transaction Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the parties thereto other than the Company, enforceable in accordance with the respective terms, (ii) that the parties to the Transaction Documents, other than the Company, have the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into such agreements and to perform their respective obligations thereunder and (iii) that each of the parties to the Transaction Documents, other than the Company, have duly authorized, executed and delivered the Transaction Documents.  We have also assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons whose acts are relevant to the opinions rendered herein.  We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures.







(c) We express no opinion and assume no responsibility as to the effect of, or consequences resulting from, any legislative act or other change in law occurring after the date of this letter.







(d) We express no opinion on the enforceability, under certain circumstances, of provisions to the effect that failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right or remedy will not operate as a waiver of that right or remedy.







(e) We express no opinion on the enforceability, in certain circumstances, of provisions waiving broadly or vaguely stated rights, statutory or other rights representing public policy, or unknown future rights and of provisions that rights or remedies are not exclusive.


 




  





64











  











(f) We express no opinion on limitations on the exercise of certain contractual rights and remedies if the defaults are not material or the penalties bear no reasonable relation to the damage suffered by the aggrieved party as a result of the delinquencies or defaults.


 


(g) We express no opinion with respect to any application of the usury laws of any jurisdiction.







(i)Whenever a statement herein is qualified by "to our knowledge" or similar phrase, it means that, during the course of our representation of the Company for the purposes of this opinion letter, (1) no information that would give those lawyers who participated in the preparation of the letter or who performed work for the Company in connection with the Transaction Agreements (collectively, the "Opinion Letter Participants") current actual knowledge of the inaccuracy of such statement has come to their attention; (2) we have not undertaken any independent investigation or inquiry to determine the accuracy of such statement; (3) any limited investigation or inquiry otherwise undertaken by the Opinion Letter Participants during the preparation of this opinion letter should not be regarded as such an investigation or inquiry; and (4) no inference as to our knowledge of any matters bearing on the accuracy of any such statement should be drawn from the fact of our representation of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company is advised by the staff of the Commission in a written comment letter or otherwise that the Staff or the SEC seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities that does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices)(or as otherwise may be acceptable to the Investor), because of the number of shares sought to be included in the Registration Statement, then the Company may reduce (an “SEC Share Reduction”) the number of shares covered by such Registration Statement to the maximum number which would still enable the Staff and the SEC to allow the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415 and to permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used as aforesaid.  In the event of an SEC Share Reduction, (i) the inclusion of the Commitment Shares and the Fee Shares in such initial Registration Statement shall take precedence over any Put Shares and shall not be cut back or removed from such Registration Statement until any Put Shares are cut back and removed from such Registration Statement.


 


c.  MISC.   The Company shall, as early as practicable on the Trading Day after the effective date of such Registration Statement, file a final Prospectus with the Commission as required by Rule 424.  The Company acknowledges that the number of shares initially included in each Registration Statement represents a good faith estimate of the maximum number of Put Shares to be issued in addition to the Commitment Shares and Fee Shares, and shall be amended if not sufficient.  Each Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided to (and subject to the approval of) the Investor and its counsel prior to its filing or other submission.







d.  PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATIONS.  If at any time prior to the expiration of the Registration Period (as hereinafter defined) the Company shall determine to file with the Commission a Registration Statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans), the Company shall send to Investor written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen (15) days after the effective date of such notice, the Investor shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such Registration Statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities which are not then registered for resale pursuant to a current and effective Registration Statement, and which the Investor requests to be registered, except that if, (i) inclusion of such shares would result in the offering not being Rule 415 Eligible, or (ii) in connection with any underwritten public offering for the account of the Company, the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall impose a limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock which may be included in the Registration Statement because, in such underwriter(s)' judgment, marketing or other factors dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate public distribution, then the Company shall be obligated to include in such Registration Statement only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which the Investor has requested inclusion hereunder (i) as would enable the offering to be Rule 415 Eligible or (ii) as the underwriter shall permit;


 




  





71











  






 


PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities, the holders of which are not entitled by contract to inclusion of such securities in such Registration Statement or are not entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities; and







PROVIDED, FURTHER, HOWEVER, that, after giving effect to the immediately preceding proviso, any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata with holders of other securities having the contractual right to include such securities in the Registration Statement other than holders of securities entitled to inclusion of their securities in such Registration Statement by reason of demand registration rights. No right to registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 2(d) shall be construed to limit any registration required under Sections 2(a) or 3 hereof.  If an offering in connection with which the Investor is entitled to registration under this Section 2(d) is an underwritten offering, then the Investor shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, offer and sell such Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering using the same underwriter or underwriters and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on the same terms and conditions as other shares of Common Stock included in such underwritten offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the registration rights of the Investor pursuant to this Section 2(d) shall only be available in the event the Company fails to timely file, obtain effectiveness or maintain effectiveness of any Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall terminate and be of no further force and effect once the Company satisfies its obligations under this Agreement.







3.  OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY.  In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall have the following obligations:







a.  The Company shall prepare promptly, and file with the Commission as soon as practicable after the date of the Closing under the Investment Agreement (the "Closing Date") (but no later than the Filing Deadline), Registration Statements with respect to the number of Registrable Securities provided in Section 2(a), and thereafter use its best efforts to cause each such Registration Statement relating to Registrable Securities to become effective as soon as possible after such filing, but in any event shall cause each such Registration Statement relating to Registrable Securities to become effective no later than the Effectiveness Deadline, and, subject to any Allowed Delay, the Company shall keep the Registration Statement current and effective (and the prospectus contained therein available for use) pursuant to Rule 415 for resales by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices) at all times until such date as is the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities for such Registration Statement have been sold and (ii) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities for such Registration Statement (as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the affected Holder) may be immediately sold to the public without registration or restriction (including without limitation as to volume by each holder thereof), pursuant to Rule 144 and without the need for current public information as required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) (the "Registration Period").  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall ensure that, when filed and at all times while effective, each Registration Statement (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) and the prospectus (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) used in connection with such Registration Statement (1) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading and (2) will disclose (whether directly or through incorporation by reference to other SEC filings to the extent permitted) all material information regarding the Company and its securities.


 




  





72











  






 


b.  The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements (collectively, “Registration Supplements”) to each Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statements, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statements current and effective at all times during the Registration Period and as required by applicable securities regulations, and during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by the Registration Statements until such time as all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in the Registration Statements. In the case of amendments and supplements to any Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K or any analogous report under the 1934 Act, the Company shall have incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the SEC on the same day on which the 1934 Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement. The Company consents to the use of the prospectus (including, without limitation, any supplement thereto) included in each Registration Statement in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act and with the securities or “blue sky” laws of the jurisdictions in which the Registrable Securities may be sold by the Investor, in connection with the resale of the Registrable Securities and for such period of time thereafter as such prospectus (including, without limitation, any supplement thereto) (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act) is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with resales of Registrable Securities.







c. In the event that, whether due to a Registration Shortfall or an SEC Share Reduction or otherwise, the Initial Registration Statement or any Additional Registration does not initially cover, or at any time does not cover, the resale of all Registrable Securities  (the date of each of which is referred to as a “Registration Trigger Date”), or in the event that on any Trading Day (as defined in the Investment Agreement) (each such Trading Day is also referred to as a  "Registration Trigger Date") the number of shares available under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement is otherwise insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities issued or issuable pursuant to the Transaction Documents, the Company shall amend the Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefore, if applicable), or both (each, an “Additional Registration Statement”), so as to cover at least 100% of the total number of Registrable Securities so issued or issuable as of the Registration Trigger Date (subject to an SEC Share Reduction, if applicable).  The Company shall prepare and file each Additional Registration Statement as soon as practicable following any Registration Trigger Date, but not later than the date that is sixty (60) days following the applicable Registration Trigger Date (the “Additional Registration Filing Deadline”) until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the prospectus contained therein is available for use by the Investor, provided that, if Cutback Shares are required to be included in the Additional Registration Statement, the “Additional Registration Filing Deadline” shall mean the later of (i) the date that is sixty (60) days after the date substantially all (as such term is then interpreted by the Commission) of the Registrable Securities registered under the immediately preceding Registration Statement are sold and (ii) the date that is six (6) months following the date of effectiveness of the most recently effective Registration Statement or Additional Registration Statement filed hereunder.  The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof, but in any event the Company shall cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective by the 90th calendar day following the date on which an additional Registration Statement is required to be filed hereunder (or the 120th calendar day after such date in the event that such Registration Statement is subject to review by the SEC) (the “Additional Registration Effectiveness Deadline”) or as promptly as practicable in the event the Company is required to increase its authorized shares.

d.  The Company shall furnish to the Investor and its legal counsel (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the Commission, or received by the Company, one copy of each Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, each preliminary prospectus and prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto, and, in the case of the Registration Statement referred to in Section 2(a), each letter written by or on behalf of the Company to the Commission or the staff of the Commission, and each item of correspondence from the Commission or the staff of the Commission, in each case relating to such Registration Statement (other than any portion of any thereof which contains information for which the Company has sought confidential treatment), and (ii) such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as the Investor may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Investor. The Company will immediately notify the Investor in writing of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment. The Company will promptly respond to any and all comments received from the Commission, with a view towards causing each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable and shall file an acceleration request as soon as practicable, but no later than five (5) business days (the "Acceleration Request Deadline") following the resolution or clearance of all Commission comments or, if applicable, following notification by the Commission that any such Registration Statement or any amendment thereto will not be subject to review.







e.  The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statements under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Investor shall reasonably request, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions;







f.    Within one (1) Business Day after each Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investor) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in the form (“Notice of Effectiveness of Registration Statement”) attached hereto as Exhibit A.


 




  





74











  






 


g.  As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify the Investor of the happening of any event, of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in any Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and use its best efforts to promptly, but in any event within two (2) business days of such event (the “Registration Supplement Deadline”), prepare and file a supplement or amendment to any Registration Statement (also, a “Registration Supplement”) to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment and the related prospectus supplement to the Investor as the Investor may reasonably request; provided that, for not more than ten (10) consecutive days (or a total of not more than twenty (20) days in any twelve (12) month period), the Company may delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company (as well as prospectus or Registration Statement updating) the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company (an "Allowed Delay"); provided, further, that the Company shall promptly (i) notify the Investor in writing of the existence of (but in no event, without the prior written consent of the Investor, shall the Company disclose to the Investor any of the facts or circumstances regarding) material non-public information giving rise to an Allowed Delay and (ii) advise the Investor in writing to cease all sales under such Registration Statement until the end of the Allowed Delay, provided the above actions are consistent with the requirements of the 1933 Act and/or 1934 Act or other applicable law. Upon expiration of the Allowed Delay, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of this Section 3(g) with respect to the information giving rise thereto.







h.  The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any Registration Statement, and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Investor who holds Registrable Securities being sold (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof.







i.  The Company shall permit a single firm of counsel designated by the Investor to review such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (as well as all requests for acceleration or effectiveness thereof), at Investor’s own cost, a reasonable period of time prior to their filing with the Commission (not less than three (3) business days but not more than ten (10) business days) and not file any document in a form to which such counsel reasonably objects and will not request acceleration of such Registration Statement without prior notice to such counsel.


 




  





75











  








 


j.  The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning the Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning the Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Investor prior to making such disclosure, and allow the Investor, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.







k.  If the Company becomes eligible for listing on a national securities exchange, the Company shall use its best efforts to (i) cause all the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be listed on each national securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange, or (ii) to the extent the securities of the same class or series are not then listed on a national securities exchange, secure the designation and quotation, of all the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or, if not eligible for the or the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the Nasdaq Global Market or, if not eligible for the Nasdaq Global Market, on the Over the Counter electronic bulletin board and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to arrange for at least two market makers to register with FINRA as such with respect to such Registrable Securities.







l.  The Company shall provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the Registration Statement.







m.  The Company shall cooperate with the Investor who holds Registrable Securities being offered and the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to such Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or the Investor may reasonably request and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or the Investor may request, and, within five (5) business days after a Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the Commission, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investor) an appropriate instruction and an opinion of such counsel in the form required by the transfer agent in order to issue the Registrable Securities free of restrictive legends.


 




  





76











  








 


n.  At the request of the Holder, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and any prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to change the plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement, provided that if such change is not legally necessary in order for the Investors to timely sell their Registrable Securities, the Company shall not be required to effect such amendments if they will  impose any additional requirements, including costs, on the Company.







o.  The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investor of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.







p.  The Company shall comply with all applicable laws related to a Registration Statement and offering and sale of securities and all applicable rules and regulations of governmental authorities in connection therewith (including without limitation the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Commission).







q.  Further Registration Statements. Except for a registration statement filed on behalf of the Investor pursuant to Section 2 or Section 3 of this Agreement, and except for an underwritten public offering, the Company will not file any registration statements or amend (in such a manner as to increase the number of shares registered) any already filed registration statement with the Commission or with state regulatory authorities without the consent of the Investor until the expiration of the "Exclusion Period," which shall be defined as the sooner of (i) the date that the Registration Statement shall have been current and available for use in connection with the resale of the Registrable Securities for a period of 180 days, or (ii) until all the Shares have been resold or transferred by the Subscribers pursuant to the Registration Statement or are eligible for immediate unrestricted resale pursuant to Rule 144, without volume limitations. 







r.  No Piggyback On Registrations.  Except for legally required amendments or supplements to the existing registration statement, neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than the Holder in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the Company in a Registration Statement (including but not limited to any Registration Statement under Section 2(a) hereof or any amendment or supplement thereto under Section 3(b) or 3(g) hereof) or an Additional Registration Statement, other than the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not during the Registration Period enter into any agreement providing any such right to any of its security holders.  In addition, the Company shall not offer any securities for its own account or the account of others in any Registration Statement under Section 2(a) hereof or any amendment or supplement thereto under Section 3(b) hereof without the consent of the Holder.


 




  





77











  












	
  

	
4.  REGISTRATION FAILURE.   If, while any Put Shares are outstanding: 












 (i) after the effective date of a Registration Statement, such Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, or the Holder is otherwise not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, for more than 10 consecutive calendar days or more than an aggregate of 20 calendar days (which need not be consecutive calendar days) during any 12-month period, or







(ii) any Additional Registration Statement required to be filed hereunder is not filed by the applicable Additional Registration Filing Deadline or it is not declared effective by the applicable Additional Registration Effectiveness Deadline, or







(iii) any Registration Supplement required to be filed hereunder is not filed by the applicable Registration Supplement Deadline, 







(any such failure or breach in (i) – (iii) above being referred to as a “Registration Failure,” and the date of each such failure being referred to as a “Registration Failure Date”), then, in addition to any other rights the Holder may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Registration Failure Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Registration Failure Date (if the applicable Registration Failure shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Registration Failure is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount (“Registration Failure Liquidated Damages”) in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 2% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Investment Agreement for any unregistered Put Shares that are Registrable Securities then held by such Holder, until such time as the Registrable Securities either become registered for resale or become immediately resellable under Rule 144 without conditions or restrictions.  







Notwithstanding (i) – (vii) above, the Company shall not be liable for Registration Failure Liquidated Damages if (1) the Company makes all filings as and when required by this Agreement, (2) the Company responds to any comments from the SEC regarding a Registration Statement within ten (10) days of the date of receipt of such comments, and (3) uses its best efforts to have the subject Registration Statement declared effective for the number of shares required hereunder as quickly as reasonably possible.  Registration Failure Liquidated Damages shall be due and payable by the fifth (5th) day of the calendar month in which they accrue.  If the Company fails to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within five (5) days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of a Registration Failure.

5.  OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTOR.  In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Investor shall have the following obligations:







a.  It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of the Investor that the Investor shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least three (3) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify the Investor of the information the Company requires from each Investor.







b. The Investor, by the Investor's acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statements hereunder, unless the Investor has notified the Company in writing of the Investor's election to exclude all of the Investor's Registrable Securities from the Registration Statements.







c. In the event of an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 2(d) in which any Registrable Securities are to be included, the Investor agrees to enter into and perform the Investor's obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, including, without limitation, customary indemnification and contribution obligations, with the managing underwriter of such offering and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities, unless the Investor has notified the Company in writing of the Investor's election to exclude all of the Investor's Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.







d. The Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g), the Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until the Investor's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(g) and, if so directed by the Company, the Investor shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) or destroy (and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction) all copies in the Investor's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.


 




  





79











  






 


e.  No Investor may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless the Investor (i) agrees to sell the Investor's Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements in usual and customary form entered into by the Company, (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements, and (iii) agrees to pay its pro rata share of all underwriting discounts and commissions and any expenses in excess of those payable by the Company pursuant to Section 6 below.







f.  If so requested by the Company, Holder agrees to furnish to the Company a completed questionnaire in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B (a “Selling Shareholder Questionnaire”) by the end of the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date on which such Holder receives draft materials in accordance with this Section.







6.  EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.  All reasonable expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualification fees, printers and accounting fees, the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company shall be borne by the Company.







7.  INDEMNIFICATION.  In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:







a.  To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) the Investor, (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees, agents and each person who controls any Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, if any, (iii) any underwriter (as defined in the 1933 Act) for the Investor in connection with an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof, and (iv) the directors, officers, partners, employees and each person who controls any such underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, if any (each, an "Indemnified Person"), against any joint or several losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, together with actions, proceedings or inquiries by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, "Claims") to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the Commission) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, "Violations"). The Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 7(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs solely due to the inclusion by the Company in a Registration Statement of false or misleading information about the Investor, where such information was furnished in writing to the Company by the Investor for the purpose of inclusion in such Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and (iii) with respect to any preliminary prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Person if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, such corrected prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3 hereof, and the Indemnified Person was promptly advised in writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a Violation and such Indemnified Person, notwithstanding such advice, used it. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to Section 10.


 




  





80











  


 




b.  Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person shall, if Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any the Company under this Section 7, deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Indemnified Person, as the case may be.







PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Company, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Company, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the Company would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Company shall pay for only one separate legal counsel for the Indemnified Persons, and such legal counsel shall be selected by Investor and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, if the Investor is entitled to indemnification hereunder.  The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 7, except to the extent that the Company is actually prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. The indemnification required by this Section 7 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred and is due and payable.







c. To the extent permitted by law, but in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Investor’s Subscription Amount (as defined in the Investment Agreement) the Investor will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) the Company, and (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees, or agents of the Company, if any (each, a  "Company Indemnified Person"), against any joint or several losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, together with actions, proceedings or inquiries by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, "Claims") to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon a Claim arising out of or based upon any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities, which occurs due to the inclusion by the Company in a Registration Statement of false or misleading information about the Investor, where such information was furnished in writing to the Company by the Investor for the purpose of inclusion in such Registration Statement.







8.  CONTRIBUTION.

Schedule 5.1


List of Subsidiaries


100 ordinary shares of  FOREX INTERNATIONAL TRADING CORP M.S. LTD - On March 24, 2010 the Company incorporated its wholly-owned subsidiary in the State of Israel under the name: FOREX INTERNATIONAL TRADING CORP M.S. LTD – Company number 514424985 (“Forex Sub”).  To date, Forex Sub has not commenced operations, and only accepts bank deposits on behalf of investors, as authorized by the Company (represent 100.0% on a fully diluted basis)


19.920 ordinary shares of Triple 8 Ltd., a Cyprus company (represent 49.9% on a none fully diluted basis)


On December 18, 2010, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Forex New York City, LLC (“Forex NYC”) pursuant to which the Company acquired twenty percent (20%) of the issued and outstanding equity of Forex NYC (the “FNYC Interest”) on a fully diluted basis.  In consideration for the FNYC Interest, the Company issued and sold to Forex NYC 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company.


On February 23, 2011, the Company entered into an additional Securities Purchase Agreement with Forex NYC, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire additional thirty percent (30%) of the issued and outstanding membership interest of Forex NYC (the “FNYC Interest”) on a fully diluted basis.

In consideration for the Wheatley Interest, the Company agreed to issue and sell to Wheatley 1,125,000 shares of common stock of the Company.  Due to the failure of Wheatley and Forex NYC to deliver the required audited financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP, it is the Company’s position that the agreements entered February 23, 2011 are void and, as a result, the closings of such interest in Wheatley and Forex NYC did not occur.  The Company is presently negotiating a settlement with these parties.  There is no guarantee that the Company will be successful in finalizing such settlement.

Re:

	
Forex International Trading Corp. (the “Company”)







Bring Down Cold Comfort Letter







This letter is being given pursuant to Investment Agreement dated as of June 27, 2011, by and between the Company and Centurion Private Equity, LLC as the Investor named therein (“Investment Agreement”).  Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized defined terms shall have the meanings set forth in the Investment Agreement.







The undersigned hereby represents that he/she is a member of the undersigned accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”) and that the Accounting Firm is an independent accounting firm representing the Company which, as of the date in hereof, meets the definition of an “Authorized Auditor” as defined in Section 1 of the Investment Agreement.







We have audited the balance sheet of Forex International Trading Corp. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, included in the registration statement (no. 333-161795) (the "Registration Statement")on Form S-l filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") for the resale by Centurion Private Equity, LLC (the “Investor”) of the Put Shares and Commitment Shares and Fee Shares (as each such term is defined in the Investment Agreement). Our report, dated August 17, 2009, with respect thereto is also included in the Registration Statement.







In connection with the Registration Statement:







1.           We are an independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the "PCAOB") and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").







2.           In our opinion, the financial statements audited by us and included in the Registration Statement comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.


 




  





104











  











3.           We have not audited any financial statements of the Company as of any date or for any period subsequent to December 31, 2010. Although we have conducted an audit for the year ended December 31, 2010, the purpose (and therefore the scope) of the audit was to enable us to express our opinion on the financial statements as of December 31, 2010, and for the year then ended, but not on the financial statements for any interim period within that year. Therefore, we are unable to and do not express any opinion on the unaudited balance sheet as of June 30, 2010, and the unaudited statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, included in the Registration Statement, or on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as of any date or for any period subsequent to December 31, 2009.







4.           For purposes of this letter we have read the 2010 minutes of meetings of the stockholders, the board of directors of the Company as set forth in the minute books at November x, 2010, officials of the Company having advised us that the minutes of all such meetings through that date were set forth therein; we have carried out other procedures to November x, 2010, as follows:







a. With respect to the six month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, we have:


(i) performed the procedures specified by the PCAOB and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for a review of interim financial information as described in AU 722, Interim Financial Information, on the unaudited condensed balance sheet at June 30, 2010 and the unaudited condensed statements of operations and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 included in the Registration Statement; and







(ii) inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters as to whether the unaudited financial statements referred to in a(i) comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.

 


b. With respect to the period from July 1, 2010, to March 31, 2011, we have:







(i) Read the unaudited financial statements of the Company and subsidiaries for July, August, September, October and of 2010 and March of 2011 furnished us by the Company, officials of the Company having advised us that no such financial statements as of any date or for any period subsequent to March 31, , 2011, were available.







(ii) Inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters whether the unaudited financial statements referred to in b(i) are stated on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited financial statements included in the  registration Statement.







The foregoing procedures do not constitute an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Also, they would not necessarily reveal matters of significance with respect to the comments in the following paragraph. Accordingly, we make no representations regarding the sufficiency of the foregoing procedures for your purposes.


 




  





105











  











5.           Nothing came to our attention as a result of the foregoing procedures, however, that caused us to believe that:







a. (i) Any material modifications should be made to the unaudited financial statements described in 4a(i), included in the Registration Statement, for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.







(ii) The unaudited financial statements described in 4a(i) do not comply as to form in all material  respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC.







b. (i) at March 31, 2011, there was any change in the capital stock, increase in long-term debt or decrease in net current assets or stockholders' deficit of the Company as compared with amounts shown in the June 30, 2010 unaudited balance sheet included in the Registration Statement, which were not disclosed on the Company financials as of March 31, 2011; or (ii) for the period from July 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011, there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in net sales or in the total or per-share amounts of income before extraordinary items or of net income, except in all instances for changes, increases, or decreases that the Registration Statement discloses have occurred or may occur.







6.           As mentioned in 4b, Company officials have advised us that no financial statements as of any date or for any period subsequent to March 31,, 2011, are available; accordingly, the procedures carried out by us with respect to changes in financial statement items after March 31, 2011, have, of necessity, been even more limited than those with respect to the periods referred to in 4. We have inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters whether


 


(a) at March 31, 2011, there was any change in the capital stock, increase in long-term debt or any decreases in net current assets or shareholders' equity of the Company as compared with amounts shown on the June 30, 2010, unaudited balance sheet included in the Registration Statement or







(b) for the period from July 1, 2010, to March 31, 2011, there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, in net sales or in the total or per-share amounts of income before extraordinary items or of net income. On the basis of these inquiries and our reading of the minutes as described in 4, nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe that there was any such change, increase, or decrease, except in all instances for changes, increases, or decreases that the Registration Statement discloses have occurred or


may occur.







7.           For purposes of this letter, we have also read the items (if any) identified by you on the attached copy of the Registration Statement, and have performed the following procedures, which were applied as indicated with respect to the letters explained below:
