2.1

Issue of and Subscription for Shares

Issue of and Subscription for Shares. Upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company shall issue and allot to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall subscribe for Shares having an initial Subscription Price of up to (AT MARKET OF THE DAY OF NOTICE).The variable being that the investor is subscribing to the shares at a 10% discount to market at such times as the investor will invest pursuant to a notice of investment. This discount to Market means that the Purchaser will give the Company 90% of the value of the shares at Market.

Delivery of Investment Notices. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement the Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, deliver an Investment Notice to the Company which states the estimated amount (the “Investment Amount”) and the number of Shares (the “Investment Number”) which the Company intends to issue and allot to the Purchaser with regard to a Pricing Period. A copy of the form of Investment Notice is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A. The Purchaser agrees that it shall not sell Shares below the Safety Net Price set by the Company in each Investment Notice at any time during the applicable Pricing Period. During the three year term of this Agreement (the “Commitment Period”), the Purchaser shall not be entitled to submit an Investment Notice until after the previous Closing has been completed or at such a time in which the Company and the Purchaser agree upon the issuance of a notice before closing.

Purchaser’s Obligation to Subscribe for Shares. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and broker restrictions, following the Purchaser’s receipt of a validly delivered Investment Notice, the Purchaser will subscribe for that number of freely tradable Shares equal to the lesser of (i) more than 10% of the cumulative daily trading volume for the Shares on the Principal Market on each Trading Day during the relevant Pricing Period (as long as the Purchaser has received in the Purchaser’s designated trading account prior to the first day of the Pricing Period, Shares equal to not less than 100% of the amount set forth in the relevant Investment Notice), excluding block trades of more than 5,000, pre-arranged special crossings, off market transfers, and trades in which Purchaser had no opportunity to participate and Knockout Days and (ii) the number of Shares set forth in the relevant Investment Notice; and further provided in each case that if in the reasonable opinion of the Purchaser the market behavior has not been regular with regard to the trading of the Company’s Shares on the Principal Market, the Purchaser shall be entitled at its sole discretion to elect (“Knockout Election”) to treat such Trading Day as a Knockout Day. If eighty per cent (80%) of the VWAP on a given Trading Day is less than the Safety Net Price, being 50% decrease of the previous closing, the Purchaser will abstain from Trading unless directed from the Company by notice to proceed. Should the stock continue the decline, the Purchaser may abstain from trading for up to Seven(7) days without notice, then after the seventh day, the Purchaser will resume trading until asked otherwise.

There is a volume restriction and it is calculated by the past ten (10) average volume. The investor will subscribe to what the result of the formulae indicated below,

The Purchaser will subscribe in each Investment Notice based on 10% of the daily average volume over the past 10 day period and the prices of the shares traded during that period.

So, the calculation is:

Daily volume for 10 days divided by 10 = avg. volume times .10 (10%) giving an amount of shares.

As for pricing, the investment notice will give an estimated price of:

10% times the trading prices over the past 10 days. The pricing in the Investment Notice will only be used as an estimate as to the amount of money expected for the Investment, whereas the ACTUAL prices will be placed in the Closing Document, giving the ACTUAL prices the Purchaser pays for the shares and for what the shares are sold for.

Limitation on Purchaser’s Obligation to Subscribe for Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Purchaser be required to subscribe for, and the Company shall in no event issue to the Purchaser, that number of Shares which when added to the sum of the number of Shares beneficially owned, by the Purchaser, would exceed 9.99% of the number of Shares in issue on the Investment Notice Date for such Pricing Period or such lesser or greater percentage as would require the Purchaser to make a notice filing that would cause the purchaser to be considered an affiliate. Each Investment Notice shall include a representation of the Company as to the number of Shares in issue on the related Investment Notice Date.

Shares Listing Requirement. At all times during the period beginning on the related Investment Notice Date and ending on and including the related Closing Date, the Company’s issued Shares shall have been listed on an acceptable public market or exchange (the “Principal Market” and shall not have been suspended from trading thereon for a period of five (5) consecutive Trading Days during the Commitment Period and the Company shall not have been notified of any pending or threatened proceeding or other action to delist or suspend the Shares.

g. Mechanics of Subscription for Shares by Purchaser. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 2.1(f), 6 and 7, each closing of the subscription for Shares by the Purchaser of Shares (each a “Closing”) shall occur on the date which is the later of three (3) Trading Days following the end of the Pricing Period or the date of final settlement of the Shares being sold by Purchaser during that Pricing Period (each a “Closing Date”).

Overall Limit on Shares Issuable. The Company shall not issue to the Purchaser under this Agreement the number of Shares that would exceed the number of Shares that may be issuable without shareholder approval (the “Maximum Ordinary Share Issuance”).

(i)

subdivides or combines its Shares;

(ii)

pays a dividend in Free-Trading Shares

(iii)

issues any options or other rights to subscribe for or purchase Shares and the price per share for which Shares may at any time thereafter be issuable pursuant to such options or other rights shall be 25% less than the Subscription Price for each of the two (2)immediately prior Pricing Periods and are free-trading.

(iv)

issues any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares and the consideration per share for which Shares may at any time thereafter be issuable pursuant to the terms of such convertible or exchangeable securities shall be less than the Market Price by 25% for each of the two (2) immediately prior Pricing Periods; or

(v)

issues Shares otherwise than as provided in the foregoing subsections (i) through (iv), at a price per share less, or for other consideration lower, than 25% of Subscription Price for each of the two (2) immediately prior Pricing Periods, or without consideration.

The Company agrees that it shall not take any action that would result in a Valuation Event occurring during a Pricing Period.

Trading Protocol: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, upon the stock trading DOWN by 50% or more of its’ average or closing trading price during a Pricing Period Infinity Fund agrees to cease trading of Company stock until the Purchaser receives written consent from the Company to continue trading.

(g)

Purchaser is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and will acquire the Securities for its own account and not with a view to a sale or distribution thereof as that term is used in Section 2(a)(11) of the 1933 Act, in a manner which would require registration under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws. Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Securities. Purchaser can bear the economic risk of the Securities, has knowledge and experience in financial business matters and is capable of bearing and managing the risk of investment in the Securities. Purchaser recognizes that the Securities have not been registered under the 1933 Act, nor under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold unless the resale of the Securities are registered under the 1933 Act or unless an exemption from registration is available. Purchaser has carefully considered and has, to the extent Purchaser believes such discussion necessary, discussed with its professional, legal, tax and financial advisors, the suitability of an investment in the Securities for its particular tax and financial situation and its advisers, if such advisors were deemed necessary, and has determined that the Securities are a suitable investment for it. Purchaser has not been offered the Securities by any form of general solicitation or advertising, including, but not limited to, advertisements, articles, notices or other communications published in any newspaper, magazine, or other similar media or television or radio broadcast or any seminar or meeting where, to Purchaser’s knowledge, those individuals that have attended have been invited by any such or similar means of general solicitation or advertising. Purchaser has had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive satisfactory answers from the Company, or any person or persons acting on behalf of the Company, concerning the terms and conditions of the Securities and the Company, and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of Purchaser. The Company has not supplied Purchaser any information regarding the Securities or an investment in the Securities other than as contained in this Agreement, and Purchaser is relying on its own investigation and evaluation of the Company and the Securities and not on any other information. Purchaser is aware that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, may apply to sales of the Securities and other activities with respect to the Securities by Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to sell all Securities registered under any registration statement and sold in connection therewith, in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth in such registration statement and any and all applicable prospectus delivery requirements, and to immediately cease and refrain from selling Securities, upon written notice from the Company, that any registration statement registering the resale of the Securities is not effective, contains any misstatements or omissions, that the prospectus included in such registration statement no longer complies with the requirements of Section 10 of the 1933 Act, or that the prospectus or registration statement can no longer be relied upon for any reason, until such time as Purchaser is notified by the Company that such registration statement is effective or such prospectus is compliant with Section 10 of the 1933 Act, or otherwise, unless Purchaser is able to, and does, sell such Securities pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the 1933 Act.

(h)

The Purchaser is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted.
