WHEREAS, Waste2Energy is conducting the Offering on a “reasonable efforts, all-or-none” basis as to the Minimum Amount and a “reasonable efforts” basis thereafter as to the Maximum Amount and the Over-Subscription Option;

 

WHEREAS, simultaneously with, and as a condition to the closing of the Minimum Amount, Pubco will acquire in a merger all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Waste2Energy pursuant to which all of the Waste2Energy shareholders will receive newly issued restricted shares of Common Stock in exchange for their Waste2Energy shares (the “ Reverse Transaction ”);

WHEREAS, the Subscriber desires to purchase and Waste2Energy desires to sell that number of Units set forth on the signature page hereof on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and

 

WHEREAS, unless expressly provided elsewhere herein, hereinafter the term “ Company ” refers to the combined entity of Waste2Energy and Pubco following the Reverse Transaction.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual representations and covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

 

I.  

SUBSCRIPTION FOR UNITS AND REPRESENTATIONS BY THE SUBSCRIBER

 

1.1   Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and in the Memorandum, the Subscriber hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company, and the Company agrees to sell to the Subscriber, such number of Units as is set forth on the signature page hereof, at a price equal to $2.00 per Unit.  The purchase price is payable by personal or business check or money order made payable to “Signature Bank, as Escrow Agent for Waste2Energy, Inc.” contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Subscriber.  Subscribers may also pay the subscription amount by wire transfer of immediately payable funds to:

 

Signature Bank

950 Third Avenue

New York, NY 10002

ABA#: 026013576

A/C#: 1501248807

 

1.2   The Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of the Units involves a high degree of risk including, but not limited to, the following: (a) the Company has a limited operating history and requires substantial funds in addition to the proceeds of the Offering; (b) an investment in the Company is highly speculative, and only investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the Company and the Units; (c) the Subscriber may not be able to liquidate its investment; (d) transferability of the Common Stock and the Warrants is extremely limited; (e) in the event of a disposition, the Subscriber could sustain the loss of its entire investment; (f) the Company has not paid any dividends since its inception and does not anticipate paying any dividends; and (g) the Company may issue additional securities in the future which have rights and preferences that are senior to those of the Common Stock.  Without limiting the generality of the representations set forth in Section 1.5 below, the Subscriber represents that the Subscriber has carefully reviewed the section of the Memorandum captioned “Risk Factors.”

 

1.3   The Subscriber represents that the Subscriber is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and that the Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Units. The Subscriber is referred to the section of the Memorandum entitled “Investor Qualifications” and to the Confidential Prospective Purchaser Questionnaire for a full explanation of the term “accredited investor.”

1.4   The Subscriber hereby acknowledges and represents that (a) the Subscriber has knowledge and experience in business and financial matters, prior investment experience, or the Subscriber has employed the services of a “purchaser representative” (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D), attorney and/or accountant to read all of the documents furnished or made available by the Company both to the Subscriber and to all other prospective investors in the Units to evaluate the merits and risks of such an investment on the Subscriber’s behalf; (b) the Subscriber recognizes the highly speculative nature of this investment; and (c) the Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk that the Subscriber hereby assumes.

 

1.5   The Subscriber hereby acknowledges it has received, carefully reviewed and understands this Agreement, the Memorandum (which includes the “Risk Factors”), including all exhibits thereto, and any documents which may have been made available upon request as reflected therein, including the Warrant (collectively referred to as the “ Offering Materials ”), and hereby represents that the Subscriber has been furnished by the Company during the course of the Offering with all information regarding the Company, the terms and conditions of the Offering and any additional information that the Subscriber has requested or desired to know, and has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from duly authorized officers or other representatives of the Company concerning the Company and the terms and conditions of the Offering.

 

1.6   (a)           In making the decision to invest in the Units the Subscriber has relied solely upon the information provided by the Company in the Offering Materials.  To the extent necessary, the Subscriber has retained, at its own expense, and relied upon appropriate professional advice regarding the investment, tax and legal merits and consequences of this Agreement and the purchase of the Units hereunder.  The Subscriber disclaims reliance on any statements made or information provided by any person or entity in the course of Subscriber’s consideration of an investment in the Units other than the Offering Materials.

 

(b)   The Subscriber represents that (i) the Subscriber was contacted regarding the sale of the Units by the Company (or an authorized agent or representative thereof) and (ii) no Units were offered or sold to it by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising, and in connection therewith, the Subscriber did not (A) receive or review any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in a newspaper or magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, whether closed circuit, or generally available; or (B) attend any seminar meeting or industry investor conference whose attendees were invited by any general solicitation or general advertising.

 

1.7   The Subscriber hereby represents that the Subscriber, either by reason of the Subscriber’s business or financial experience or the business or financial experience of the Subscriber’s professional advisors (who are unaffiliated with and not compensated by the Company or any affiliate or selling agent of the Company, directly or indirectly), has the capacity to protect the Subscriber’s own interests in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby.

 

1.8   The Subscriber hereby acknowledges that the Offering has not been reviewed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) nor any state regulatory authority since the Offering is intended to be exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act pursuant to Regulation D promulgated thereunder.  The Subscriber understands that none of the Securities have been registered under the Securities Act or under any state securities or “blue sky” laws and agrees not to sell, pledge, assign or otherwise transfer or dispose of the Common Stock, Warrant Shares, or Warrants unless they are registered under the Securities Act and under any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws or unless an exemption from such registration is available.

1.9   The Subscriber understands that none of the Securities have been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a claimed exemption under the provisions of the Securities Act that depends, in part, upon the Subscriber’s investment intention.  In connection therewith, the Subscriber hereby represents that the Subscriber is purchasing the Units for the Subscriber’s own account for investment and not with a view toward the resale or distribution to others.  The Subscriber, if an entity, further represents that it was not formed for the purpose of purchasing the Units.

 

1.10   The Subscriber understands that although the Common Stock is listed for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board, there is no current trading market for the Common Stock and no assurances can be given when, if ever, that an active market will develop for the Common Stock.  The Subscriber understands that even if an active market develops for the Common Stock, Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“ Rule 144 ”) requires for non-affiliates, among other conditions, a one-year holding period commencing as of the date that the Company files “Form 10 information” with the SEC, prior to the resale of securities acquired in a non-public offering without having to satisfy the registration requirements under the Securities Act.  The Subscriber understands and hereby acknowledges that the Company is under no obligation to register any of the Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue sky” laws other than as set forth in Article V hereof.

 

1.11   The Subscriber agrees that if and to the extent required by an underwriter of the Common Stock in a public offering, the undersigned will execute a “lock-up” agreement regarding some or all of the undersigned’s Common Stock thereby agreeing not to sell such securities for a period of time after completion of the public offering whether or not such securities are included in the public offering.

 

1.12   The Subscriber consents to the placement of a legend on any certificate or other document evidencing the Securities that such Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue sky” laws and setting forth or referring to the restrictions on transferability and sale thereof contained in this Agreement.  The Subscriber is aware that the Company will make a notation in its appropriate records with respect to the restrictions on the transferability of such securities. The legend to be placed on each certificate shall be in form substantially similar to the following:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ ACT ”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES OR “BLUE SKY LAWS,” AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED ABSENT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER SUCH ACT OR COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER SUCH ACT, OR UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

1.13   The Subscriber understands that the Company will review this Agreement and is hereby given authority by the Subscriber to call Subscriber’s bank or place of employment or otherwise review the financial standing of the Subscriber; and it is further agreed that the Company, at its sole discretion, reserves the unrestricted right, without further documentation or agreement on the part of the Subscriber, to reject or limit any subscription, to accept subscriptions for fractional shares of Common Stock and to close the Offering to the Subscriber at any time and that the Company will issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent with respect to such Common Stock.

 

1.14   The Subscriber hereby represents that the address of the Subscriber furnished by Subscriber on the signature page hereof is the Subscriber’s principal residence if Subscriber is an individual or its principal business address if it is a corporation or other entity.

 

1.15   The Subscriber represents that the Subscriber has full right, power and authority (corporate, statutory and otherwise) to execute and deliver this Agreement and to purchase the Units.  This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Subscriber, enforceable against the Subscriber in accordance with its terms.

 

1.16   If the Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust, employee benefit plan, individual retirement account, Keogh Plan, or other tax-exempt entity, it is authorized and qualified to invest in the Company and the person signing this Agreement on behalf of such entity has been duly authorized by such entity to do so.

 

1.17   The Subscriber acknowledges that at such time, if ever, as the Common Stock and the Warrant Shares are “registered” (as such term is defined in Article V hereof), sales of the Common Stock and Warrant Shares will be subject to state securities laws.

 

1.18   (a)           The Subscriber agrees not to issue any public statement with respect to the Subscriber’s investment or proposed investment in the Company or the terms of any agreement or covenant between them and the Company without the Company’s prior written consent, except such disclosures as may be required under applicable law or under any applicable order, rule or regulation.

 

(b)   The Company agrees not to disclose the names, addresses or any other information about the Subscribers, except as required by law; provided, that the Company may use the name of the Subscriber for any offering or in any registration statement filed pursuant to Article V in which the Subscriber’s Common Stock is included.

 

1.19   The Subscriber understands that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws and that the Company and the principals and controlling persons thereof are relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments, and understandings set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the undersigned’s suitability to acquire Units.

 

1.20   The Subscriber agrees to hold the Company and its directors, officers, employees, affiliates, controlling persons and agents and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns harmless and to indemnify them against all liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by them as a result of (a) any sale or distribution of the Common Stock, Warrant Shares, or Warrants by the Subscriber in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws; or (b) any false representation or warranty or any breach or failure by the Subscriber to comply with any covenant made by the Subscriber in this Agreement or any other document furnished by the Subscriber to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction.

2.5   The Company possesses all licenses, certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses, except where the failure to possess such permits would not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (“ Material Permits ”), and it believes it can obtain, without undue burden or expense, any similar authority for the conduct of its business as planned to be conducted, and the Company has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit.

2.8   The Company has made or filed all federal and state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, except when the failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations otherwise due and payable, except those being contested in
