    2.  BUYER’S
      REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

     

    Each
      Buyer represents and warrants, severally and not jointly, that:

     

    
      
         

        
        

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    

     

    (a)  Investment
      Purpose.
      Each
      Buyer is acquiring the Convertible Debentures and, upon conversion of
      Convertible Debentures, the Buyer will acquire the Conversion Shares then
      issuable, for its own account for investment only and not with a view towards,
      or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof,
      except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act;
      provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Buyer
      reserves the right to dispose of the Conversion Shares at any time in accordance
      with or pursuant to an effective registration statement covering such Conversion
      Shares or an available exemption under the Securities Act.

     

    (b)  Accredited
      Investor Status.
      Each
      Buyer is an “Accredited
      Investor”
as
      that
      term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D.

     

    (c)  Reliance
      on Exemptions.
      Each
      Buyer understands that the Convertible Debentures are being offered and sold
      to
      it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of
      United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying
      in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Buyer’s compliance with, the
      representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings
      of
      such Buyer set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such
      exemptions and the eligibility of such Buyer to acquire such
      securities.

     

    (d)  Information.
      Each
      Buyer and its advisors (and his or, its counsel), if any, have been furnished
      with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the
      Company and information he deemed material to making an informed investment
      decision regarding his purchase of the Convertible Debentures and the Conversion
      Shares, which have been requested by such Buyer. Each Buyer and its advisors,
      if
      any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and
      its
      management and have received responses deemed adequate to each Buyer. Neither
      such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such
      Buyer or its advisors, if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or
      affect such Buyer’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and
      warranties contained in Section 3 below. Each Buyer understands that its
      investment in the Convertible Debentures and the Conversion Shares involves
      a
      high degree of risk. Each Buyer is in a position regarding the Company, which,
      based upon employment, family relationship or economic bargaining power, enabled
      and enables such Buyer to obtain information from the Company in order to
      evaluate the merits and risks of this investment. Each Buyer has sought such
      accounting, legal and tax advice, as it has considered necessary to make an
      informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Convertible
      Debentures and the Conversion Shares.

     

    (e)  No
      Governmental Review.
      Each
      Buyer understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other
      government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation
      or
      endorsement of the Convertible Debentures or the Conversion Shares, or the
      fairness or suitability of the investment in the Convertible Debentures or
      the
      Conversion Shares, nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits
      of the offering of the Convertible Debentures or the Conversion
      Shares.

     

    
      
         

        
        

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    

     

    (f)  Transfer
      or Resale.
      Each
      Buyer understands that except as provided in the Investor Registration Rights
      Agreement: (i) the Convertible Debentures have not been and are not being
      registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not
      be
      offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently
      registered thereunder, or (B) such Buyer shall have delivered to the Company
      an
      opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such
      securities to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or
      transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements; (ii)
      any sale of such securities made in reliance on Rule 144 under the Securities
      Act (or a successor rule thereto) (“Rule 144”)
      may be
      made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144
      is
      not applicable, any resale of such securities under circumstances in which
      the
      seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an
      underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require
      compliance with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules
      and
      regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (iii) neither the Company nor any other
      person is under any obligation to register such securities under the Securities
      Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions
      of
      any exemption thereunder. 

     

    (g)  Legends.
      Each
      Buyer understands that the certificates or other instruments representing the
      Convertible Debentures and or the Conversion Shares shall bear a restrictive
      legend in substantially the following form (and a stop -transfer order may
      be
      placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

     

    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 HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED SOLELY FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND NOT WITH A
      VIEW
      TOWARD RESALE AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED
      IN
      THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER
      THE
      SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR
      AN
      OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT
      REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. 

     

    The
      legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company within two (2) business
      days shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of the
      Conversion Shares upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required by
      state securities laws, (i) in connection with a sale transaction, provided
      the
      Conversion Shares are registered under the Securities Act or (ii) in connection
      with a sale transaction, after such holder provides the Company with an opinion
      of counsel, which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for
      opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public
      sale, assignment or transfer of the Conversion Shares may be made without
      registration under the Securities Act.

      Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf
      of such Buyer and is a valid and binding agreement of such Buyer enforceable

      accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by
      general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
      reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to,
      or
      affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and
      remedies.

      individual person, it has been formed and validly exists and has not been
      organized for the specific purpose of purchasing the Convertible Debentures
      and

      of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except
      to
      the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would
      not
      have a material adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries taken as
      a
      whole.

      reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or
      affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies. The
      authorized officer of the Company executing the Transaction Documents knows

      purposes of the Securities Act.

      returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it

      such listing of all Conversion Shares from time to time issuable under the
      terms

      the aggregate principal amount on the Convertible Debentures remains unpaid
      and
      unconverted in an aggregate amount less than Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
      ($200,000),
      the
      Company shall be entitled to directly or indirectly consummate any
      Organizational Change without, prior to the consummation an Organizational
      Change, obtaining the written consent of each Buyer. In each

    (m)  Right
      of Participation.
      For a
      period of eighteen (18) months from each Closing, so

    5.  TRANSFER
      AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

     

    (a)  The
      Company shall issue the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to its transfer
      agent irrevocably appointing David Gonzalez, Esq. as the Company’s agent for
      purpose of having certificates issued, registered in the name of the Buyer(s)
      or
      its respective nominee(s), for the Conversion Shares representing such amounts
      of Convertible Debentures as specified from time to time by the Buyer(s) to
      the
      Company upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures, for interest owed
      pursuant to the Convertible Debenture, and for any and all Liquidated Damages
      (as this term is defined in the Investor Registration Rights Agreement). David
      Gonzalez, Esq. shall be paid a cash fee of Fifty Dollars ($50) for every
      occasion they act pursuant to the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions.
      The
      Company shall not change its transfer agent without the express written consent
      of the Buyer(s), which may not be unreasonably withheld by the Buyer(s) in
      its
      sole discretion. Prior to registration of the Conversion Shares under the
      Securities Act, all such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend
      specified in Section 2(g) of this Agreement. The Company warrants that no
      instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred
      to
      in this Section 5, and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section
      2(g)
      hereof (in the case of the Conversion Shares prior to registration of such
      shares under the Securities Act) will be given by the Company to its transfer
      agent and that the Conversion Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable
      on
      the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this
      Agreement and the Investor Registration Rights Agreement. Nothing in this
      Section 5 shall affect in any way the Buyer’s obligations and agreement to
      comply with all applicable securities laws upon resale of 

     

    
      
         

        
        

      

      
        14

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    Conversion
      Shares. If the Buyer(s) provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in
      form, scope and substance customary for opinions of counsel in comparable
      transactions to the effect that registration of a resale by the Buyer(s) of
      any
      of the Conversion Shares is not required under the Securities Act, the Company
      shall within two (2) business days instruct its transfer agent to issue one
      or
      more certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by the
      Buyer. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder
      will cause irreparable harm to the Buyer by vitiating the intent and purpose
      of
      the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges
      that
      the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5 will
      be
      inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the
      Company of the provisions of this Section 5, that the Buyer(s) shall be
      entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction
      restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without
      the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security
      being required.

    (g)  Successors
      and Assigns.
      This

      representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

     

    (j)  Publicity.

      shall
      be entitled, without the prior approval of the Buyer(s), to issue any press
      release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions required
      under applicable securities or other laws or regulations (the Company shall

      its best efforts to consult the Buyer(s) in connection with any such press

      request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this
      Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
      hereby.

     

    (l)  Termination.
      In the
      event that the First Closing shall not have occurred with respect to the Buyers
      on or before five (5) business days from the date hereof due to the Company’s or
      the Buyer’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7
      above (and the non-breaching party’s failure to waive such unsatisfied
      condition(s)), the non-breaching party shall have the option to terminate this
      Agreement with respect to such breaching party at the close of business on
      such
      date without liability of any party to any other party; provided, however,
      that
      if this Agreement is terminated due to a material breach by the Company pursuant
      to this Section 9(l), the Company shall remain obligated to reimburse the
      Buyer(s) for the fees and expenses of Yorkville Advisors LLC described in
      Section 4(g) (ii) and (iii) above.

      Company represents that no broker, agent, finder or other party has been
      retained by it in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and

    INVESTOR
      REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

     

    THIS
      REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
      (this
“Agreement”),
      dated
      as of September 26, 2006, by and among NEWGOLD,
      INC.,
      a
      Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
      and
      the undersigned investors listed on Schedule I attached hereto (each, an
“Investor”
and

    WHEREAS:

     

    A. In
      connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement by and among the parties
      hereto of even date herewith (the “Securities
      Purchase Agreement”),
      the
      Company has agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the
      Securities Purchase Agreement, to issue and sell to the Investors secured
      convertible debentures (the “Convertible
      Debentures”)
      which
      shall be convertible into that number of shares of the Company’s common stock,
      par value $0.001 per share (the “Common
      Stock”),
      pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement for an aggregate
      purchase price of up to Two Million Two Hundred Thousand
      Dollars ($2,200,000). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the
      meaning ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

     

    B. To
      induce
      the Investors to execute and deliver the Securities Purchase Agreement, the
      Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities
      Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any
      similar successor statute (collectively, the “Securities
      Act”),
      and
      applicable state securities laws.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE,
      in
      consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and
      other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
      are
      hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Investors hereby agree as
      follows:

     

    1.  DEFINITIONS.

     

    As
      used
      in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following
      meanings:

     

    (a)  “Person”
means
      a
      corporation, a limited liability company, an association, a partnership, an
      organization, a business, an individual, a governmental or political subdivision
      thereof or a governmental agency.

     

    (b)  “Register,”
      “registered,”
and
      “registration”
refer
      to a registration effected by preparing and filing one or more Registration
      Statements (as defined below) in compliance with the Securities Act and pursuant
      to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule providing for
      offering securities on a continuous or delayed basis (“Rule
      415”),
      and
      the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such Registration Statement(s)
      by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

     

    
      
         

      

      
        1

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    

     

    (c)  “Registrable
      Securities”
means
      the shares of Common Stock issuable to the Investors upon conversion of the
      Convertible Debentures pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the
      Warrant Shares, as this term is defined in the Securities Purchase
      Agreement.

     

    (d)  “Registration
      Statement”
means
      a
      registration statement under the Securities Act which covers the Registrable
      Securities.

     

    2.  REGISTRATION.

     

    (a)  Subject
      to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and
      file, no later than thirty (30) days from the date hereof (the “Scheduled
      Filing Deadline”),
      with
      the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 or SB-2 (or, if the Company is
      then
      eligible, on Form S-3) under the Securities Act (the “Initial
      Registration Statement”)
      for
      the resale by the Investors of the Registrable Securities, which includes at
      least fifteen million (15,0000,000) shares of Common Stock to be issued upon
      conversion of the Convertible Debentures. The Company shall cause the
      Registration Statement to remain effective until all of the Registrable
      Securities have been sold. Prior to the filing of the Registration Statement
      with the SEC, the Company shall furnish a copy of the Initial Registration
      Statement to the Investors for their review and comment. The Investors shall
      furnish comments on the Initial Registration Statement to the Company within
      twenty-four (24) hours of the receipt thereof from the Company.

     

    (b)  Effectiveness
      of the Initial Registration Statement.
      The
      Company shall use its best efforts (i) to have the Initial Registration
      Statement declared effective by the SEC no later than one hundred twenty (120)
      days from the date hereof (the “Scheduled
      Effective Deadline”)
      and
      (ii) to insure that the Initial Registration Statement and any subsequent
      Registration Statement remains in effect until all of the Registrable Securities
      have been sold, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Scheduled Effective Deadline shall be
      extended if the Initial Registration Statement is not declared effective by
      the
      Scheduled Effective Deadline as a result of a delay caused by the SEC or the
      issuance of SEC comment letters provided that the Company is submitting
      responses to such comments letters within ten (10) business days of receipt
      of
      such comment letter by the SEC or such review provided such comments are
      resolved within forty five (45) calendar days from receipt of such SEC comment
      letter or review notification. It shall be considered an Event of Default in
      such event that the Initial Registration Statement is not declared effective
      by
      the SEC by the Scheduled Effective Deadline for any reason not specifically
      set
      forth above. 

     

    (c)  Failure
      to File or Obtain Effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
      In the
      event the Registration Statement is not filed by the Scheduled Filing Deadline
      or is not declared effective by the SEC on or before the Scheduled Effective
      Date (including any extension thereof), or if after the Registration Statement
      has been declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant to the
      Registration Statement (whether because of a failure to keep the Registration
      Statement effective, failure to disclose such information as is necessary for
      sales to be made pursuant to the Registration Statement, failure to register
      sufficient shares of Common Stock or otherwise) then as partial relief for
      the
      damages to any holder of Registrable 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        2

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    Securities
      by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the
      underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any
      other remedies at law or in equity), the Company will pay as liquidated damages
      (the “Liquidated
      Damages”)
      to the
      holder, at the holder’s option, either a cash amount or shares of the Company’s
      Common Stock within three (3) business days, after demand therefore, equal
      to
      one percent (1%) of outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Debentures
      as Liquidated Damages for each thirty (30) day period after the Scheduled Filing
      Deadline or the Scheduled Effective Date as the case may be no to exceed fifteen
      (15) months. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Liquidated Damages shall not apply
      if the Registration Statement is not kept effective as a result of a delay
      caused by the SEC or the issuance of SEC comment letters relating to any
      reports, schedules, forms, statements or other documents required to be filed
      by
      the Company with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, provided
      that the Company is submitting responses to such comment letters within ten
      (10)
      business days of receipt of such comment letter by the SEC or such review
      provided such comments are resolved within forty five (45) calendar days from
      receipt of such SEC comment letter or review notification. 

     

    (d)  Liquidated
      Damages.
      The
      Company and the Investor hereto acknowledge and agree that the sums payable
      under subsection 2(c) above shall constitute liquidated damages and not
      penalties and are in addition to all other rights of the Investor, including
      the
      right to call a default. The parties further acknowledge that (i) the amount
      of
      loss or damages likely to be incurred is incapable or is difficult to precisely
      estimate, (ii) the amounts specified in such subsections bear a reasonable
      relationship to, and are not plainly or grossly disproportionate to, the
      probable loss likely to be incurred in connection with any failure by the
      Company to obtain or maintain the effectiveness of a Registration Statement,
      (iii) one of the reasons for the Company and the Investor reaching an agreement
      as to such amounts was the uncertainty and cost of litigation regarding the
      question of actual damages, and (iv) the Company and the Investor are
      sophisticated business parties and have been represented by sophisticated and
      able legal counsel and negotiated this Agreement at arm’s length. 

     

    3.  RELATED
      OBLIGATIONS.

     

    (a)  The
      Company shall keep the Registration Statement effective pursuant to
      Rule 415 at all times until the date on which the Investor shall have sold
      all the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement (the
      “Registration
      Period”),
      which
      Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and
      prospectuses contained therein) 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 light of the circumstances in
      which
      they were made, not misleading.

     

    (b)  The
      Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including
      post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and
      the
      prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus
      is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as
      may
      be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during
      the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions
      of
      the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities
      of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all
      of
      such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with
      the

     

    
      
         

      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    intended
      methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such
      Registration Statement. In the case of amendments and supplements to a
      Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement
      (including pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company’s filing a
      report on Form 10-KSB, Form 10-QSB or Form 8-K or any analogous report under
      the
      Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
      Act”),
      the
      Company shall incorporate such report by reference into the Registration
      Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with
      the
      SEC on the same day on which the Exchange Act report is filed which created
      the
      requirement for the Company to amend or supplement the Registration Statement.
      

     

    (c)  The
      Company shall furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included
      in any Registration Statement, without charge, (i) at least one (1) copy of
      such
      Registration Statement as declared effective by the SEC and any amendment(s)
      thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents
      incorporated therein by reference, all exhibits and each preliminary prospectus,
      (ii) ten (10) copies of the final prospectus included in such Registration
      Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number
      of
      copies as such Investor may reasonably request) and (iii) such other documents
      as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate
      the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such
      Investor.

     

    (d)  The
      Company shall use its best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable
      Securities covered by a Registration Statement under such other securities
      or
“blue sky” laws of two jurisdictions in the United States requested by the
      Investor reasonably requests, (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; provided, however, that the Company shall not
      be
      required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (w) make any
      change to its certificate of incorporation or by-laws, (x) qualify to do
      business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify
      but for this Section 3(d), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such
      jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such
      jurisdiction. The costs associated with a request by the Investor to register
      and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement
      under
      such other securities or “blue sky” laws in additional jurisdictions in the
      United States shall be borne by the Investor. The Company shall promptly notify
      each Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company
      of
      any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or
      qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities
      or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of
      actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such
      purpose.

     

    (e)  As
      promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or development,
      the
      Company shall notify each Investor in writing of the happening of any event
      as a
      result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then
      in
      effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state
      a
      material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
      therein, in light of the circumstances under which 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        4

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    they
      were
      made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any
      material, nonpublic information), and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment
      to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission,
      and
      deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or amendment to each Investor. The
      Company shall also promptly notify each Investor in writing (i) when a
      prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been
      filed, and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has
      become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to
      each
      Investor by facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness), (ii) of any
      request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement
      or
      related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s
      reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration
      Statement would be appropriate.

     

    (f)  The
      Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order
      or
      other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or the suspension
      of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
      jurisdiction within the United States of America and, if such an order or
      suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension
      at
      the earliest possible moment and to notify each Investor who holds Registrable
      Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof
      or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding
      for such purpose.

     

    (g)  The
      Company shall make available for inspection by (i) any Investor and
      (ii) one (1) firm of accountants or other agents retained by the Investors
      (collectively, the “Inspectors”)
      all
      pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and
      properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”),
      as
      shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector, and cause the Company’s
      officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector
      may reasonably request; provided, however, that each Inspector shall agree,
      and
      each Investor hereby agrees, to hold in strict confidence and shall not make
      any
      disclosure (except to an Investor) or use any Record or other information which
      the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which
      determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (a) the disclosure of
      such
      Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any
      Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the Securities Act, (b)
      the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a final, non-appealable
      subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction,
      or
      (c) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the
      public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement
      of
      which the Inspector and the Investor has knowledge. Each Investor agrees that
      it
      shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court
      or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give
      prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake
      appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order
      for, the Records deemed confidential.

     

    (h)  The
      Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information
      concerning an 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 final,
      non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent
      jurisdiction, or (iv) such 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        5

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    information
      has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in
      violation of this Agreement or any other agreement. The Company agrees that
      it
      shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an Investor
      is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or
      through other means, give prompt written notice to such Investor and allow
      such
      Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent
      disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such
      information.

     

    (i)  The
      Company shall use its best efforts either to cause all the Registrable
      Securities covered by a Registration Statement (i) to be listed on each
      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) the
      inclusion for quotation on the National Association of Securities Dealers,
      Inc.
      OTC Bulletin Board for such Registrable Securities. The Company shall pay all
      fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this
      Section 3(j).

     

    (j)  The
      Company shall uses its reasonable best efforts to cause its transfer agent
      to
      cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered
      and,
      to the extent applicable, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery
      of
      certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable
      Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such
      certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as
      the
      Investors may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investors
      may request.

     

    (k)  The
      Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered
      by the applicable Registration Statement to be registered with or approved
      by
      such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to
      consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

     

    (l)  The
      Company shall otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable
      rules
      and regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration
      hereunder.

     

    (m)  Within
      two (2) business days after a 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 Investors whose Registrable
      Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that such
      Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in the form
      attached hereto as Exhibit
      A.

     

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

     

    4.  OBLIGATIONS
      OF THE INVESTORS.

     

    Each
      Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
      happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(f) or the first
      sentence of 3(e), such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of
      Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such
      Registrable Securities until such Investor’s receipt of the copies of

     

    
      
         

      

      
        6

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    the
      supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(e) or receipt
      of
      notice that no supplement or amendment is required. Notwithstanding anything
      to
      the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended
      certificates for shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor in
      accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection
      with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has
      entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor’s receipt of a notice
      from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section
      3(f) or the first sentence of 3(e) and for which the Investor has not yet
      settled.

     

    5.  EXPENSES
      OF REGISTRATION.

     

    All
      expenses incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications
      pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration,
      listing and qualifications fees, printers, legal and accounting fees shall
      be
      paid by the Company. 

     

    6.  INDEMNIFICATION.

     

    With
      respect to Registrable Securities which are included in a Registration Statement
      under this Agreement:

     

    (a)  To
      the
      fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify,
      hold harmless and defend each Investor, the directors, officers, partners,
      employees, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls
      any
      Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each,
      an
“Indemnified
      Person”),
      against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties,
      charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or
      expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”)
      incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit,
      inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or
      before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency,
      body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified
      party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified
      Damages”),
      to
      which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or
      proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out
      of
      or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of
      a
      material fact in a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment
      thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the
      offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in
      which Registrable Securities are offered (“Blue
      Sky Filing”),
      or
      the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated
      therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any
      untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
      any
      final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment
      thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) 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 Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without
      limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation there under
      relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a
      Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii)
      being, collectively, “Violations”).
      The
      Company shall reimburse the Investors and each such controlling person promptly
      as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        7

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    legal
      fees or disbursements 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 6(a): (x) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified
      Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon
      and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such
      Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of
      the
      Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto;
      (y)
      shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the
      Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available
      by
      the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company
      pursuant to Section 3(c); and (z) 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. 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 Investors pursuant to Section 9
      hereof.

     

    (b)  In
      connection with a Registration Statement, each Investor agrees to severally
      and
      not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in
      the
      same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors,
      each of its officers, employees, representatives, or agents and each Person,
      if
      any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the
      Exchange Act (each an “Indemnified
      Party”),
      against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become
      subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as
      such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or is based upon any Violation,
      in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs
      in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
      Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration
      Statement; and, subject to Section 6(d), such Investor will reimburse the
      Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in
      connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however,
      that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement
      with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts
      paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the
      prior
      written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably
      withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under
      this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as
      does
      not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of
      Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity
      shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made
      by or
      on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the
      Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement
      contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any prospectus shall not inure
      to
      the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of
      material fact contained in the prospectus was corrected and such new prospectus
      was delivered to each Investor prior to such Investor’s use of the prospectus to
      which the Claim relates.

     

    (c)  Promptly
      after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section
      6
      of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any
      governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person
      or
      Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against
      any
      indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party
      a
      written notice of the commencement thereof, and 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        8

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    the
      indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
      the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
      similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel
      mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person
      or
      the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an
      Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its
      own
      counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one (1) counsel for such
      Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party to be paid by the indemnifying party,
      if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party,
      the
      representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party
      and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
      differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and
      any
      other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified
      Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party
      in
      connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the
      indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information
      reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which
      relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the
      Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the
      status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto.
      No
      indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim
      or
      proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that
      the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition
      its
      consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of
      the
      Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or
      enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an
      unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
      Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in
      respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided
      for
      hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the
      Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties,
      firms
      or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made.
      The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a
      reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such
      indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified
      Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party
      is
      prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

     

    (d)  The
      indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments
      of
      the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and
      when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred or incurs additional
      costs.

     

    (e)  The
      indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause
      of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person
      against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the
      indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

     

    7.  CONTRIBUTION.

     

    To
      the
      extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited
      by
      law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect
      to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the
      fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no seller of
      Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        9

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    misrepresentation
      (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled
      to
      contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of
      fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable
      Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received
      by
      such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

     

    8.  REPORTS
      UNDER THE EXCHANGE ACT.

     

    With
      a
      view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated
      under the Securities Act or any similar rule or regulation of the SEC that
      may
      at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public
      without registration (“Rule
      144”)
      the
      Company agrees to:

     

    (a)  make
      and
      keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined
      in
      Rule 144;

     

    (b)  file
      with
      the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the
      Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company
      remains subject to such requirements (it being understood that nothing herein
      shall limit the Company’s obligations under Section 4(c) of the Securities
      Purchase Agreement) and the filing of such reports and other documents as are
      required by the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

     

    (c)  furnish
      to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly
      upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with
      the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange
      Act,
      (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and
      such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other
      information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell
      such
      securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

     

    9.  AMENDMENT
      OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

     

    Provisions
      of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived
      (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or
      prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and Investors
      who
      then hold at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment
      or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 9 shall be binding upon
      each Investor and the Company. No such amendment shall be effective to the
      extent that it applies to fewer than all of the holders of the Registrable
      Securities. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend
      or
      consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement
      unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this
      Agreement.

     

    10.  MISCELLANEOUS.

     

    (a)  A
      Person
      is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns
      or
      is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities or owns the right to
      receive the Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting
      instructions, notices or elections from two (2) or more Persons with respect
      to
      the same Registrable Securities, the 

     

    
      
         

      

      
        10

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    Company
      shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from
      the
      registered owner of such Registrable Securities.

     

    (b)  Any
      notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to
      be
      given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed
      to
      have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon
      receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is
      mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party);
      or (iii) one (1) business day after deposit with a nationally recognized
      overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to
      receive the same. The addresses and facsimile numbers for such communications
      shall be:

    (c)  Failure

    (d)  The
      laws
      of the State of New Jersey shall govern all issues concerning the relative
      rights of the Company and the Investors as its stockholders. All other questions
      concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this
      Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New Jersey,
      without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or
      rule
      (whether of the State of New Jersey or any other jurisdiction) that would cause
      the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New
      Jersey. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction
      of the Superior Courts of the State of New Jersey, sitting in Hudson County,
      New
      Jersey and federal courts for the District of New Jersey sitting Newark, New
      Jersey, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith
      or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby
      irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding,
      any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such
      court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum
      or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party
      hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process
      being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof
      to
      such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees
      that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and
      notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way
      any
      right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. If any provision of
      this
      Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity
      or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the
      remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or
      enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.
      EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT
      TO
      REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN
      CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION
      CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

     

    (e)  This
      Agreement, the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, the Securities Purchase
      Agreement and related documents including the Convertible Debenture, the Pledge
      Agreement dated the date hereof (the “Pledge
      Agreement”)
      constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the
      subject matter hereof and thereof. There are no restrictions, promises,
      warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein
      and
      therein. This Agreement, the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, the
      Securities Purchase Agreement and related documents including the Convertible
      Debenture, and the Security Agreement supersede all prior agreements and
      understandings among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
      hereof and thereof.

     

    (f)  This
      Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the permitted
      successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto.

     

    (g)  The
      headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall
      not
      limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

     

    (h)  This
      Agreement may be executed in identical counterparts, each of which shall be
      deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.

      once executed by a party, may be delivered to the other party hereto by
      facsimile transmission of a copy of this Agreement bearing the signature of
      the
      party so delivering this Agreement.

     

    (i)  Each
      party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further
      acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements,
      certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably
      request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this
      Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
      hereby.

     

    The
      language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by
      the
      parties to express their mutual intent and no rules of strict construction
      will
      be applied against any party.

     

    (j)  This
      Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
      permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any
      provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

    Ladies
      and Gentlemen:

    

    We
      are
      counsel to Newgold, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
      and
      have represented the Company in connection with that certain Securities Purchase
      Agreement (the “Securities
      Purchase Agreement”)
      entered into by and among the Company and the investors named therein
      (collectively, the “Investors”)
      pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investors shares of its Common
      Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common
      Stock”).
      Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company also has entered into a
      Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors (the “Investor
      Registration Rights Agreement”)
      pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the
      Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) under
      the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
      Act”).
      In
      connection with the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights
      Agreement, on ____________ ____, the Company filed a Registration Statement
      on
      Form ________ (File No. 333-_____________) (the “Registration
      Statement”)
      with
      the Securities and Exchange SEC (the “SEC”)
      relating to the Registrable Securities which names each of the Investors as
      a
      selling stockholder there under.

     

    In
      connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the SEC’s staff
      has advised us by telephone that the SEC has entered an order declaring the
      Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act at [ENTER
      TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS]
      on
[ENTER
      DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS]
      and we
      have no knowledge, after telephonic inquiry of a member of the SEC’s staff, that
      any stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any
      proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC
      and
      the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the Securities Act
      pursuant to the Registration Statement.

     

    Very
      truly yours,

    

    [Law
      Firm]
