Dear Sirs:
This will acknowledge that the undersigned hereby irrevocably
subscribes to purchase (i) a $__________(1) principal amount ten and one-half
percent (10.5%) redeemable promissory note (the "Note") of Corpas Investments,
Inc. (the "Company") (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A), and (ii) a
Warrant to purchase 1 share of the Company's $.001 par value common stock (the
"Common Stock") for each $3.00 of principal amount of the Note (such number of
shares to be rounded up in the case of fractional amounts). The exercise price
of the Warrant shall be $2.00 (subject to adjustments, all as provided in the
form of Warrant attached hereto as Exhibit B) for an aggregate purchase price
of $_________(1). The Notes and Warrants may hereinafter collectively be
referred to as the "Securities." The Company is offering an aggregate of
$2,000,000 principal amount of Notes to Accredited Investors and is requesting
investments in Units of $25,000 with each Unit consisting of a separate Note in
the Principal amount of $25,000 and a separate Warrant. With the permission of
the Company fractional Units (in multiples) of $5,000 will be permitted for
subscriptions over minimum amounts to be determined by the Company.
Upon receipt of the executed Subscription Agreement and Investment
Letter (the "Subscription Agreement" or "Agreement") (including the
Confidential Purchaser Questionnaire), the Company will deposit the
accompanying check, if payment is by check, into its checking account. Within
10 business days after the receipt by the Company of good funds from the sale
of the Note and Warrants, the Company will evidence its acceptance by
countersigning and mailing a copy of the Subscription Agreement and an original
Note and Warrant certificate to the subscriber (the "Closing").
The undersigned acknowledges that neither the Notes nor the Warrants
purchased hereby have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act"), or the securities laws of any state, that the Securities

transferring, or disposing of said Securities made in full compliance with all
applicable provisions of the Act, the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the

not been so registered and the legend may bear the following or similar words:

is currently a development stage company. The Company currently intends to
utilize the proceeds from this offering to continue to develop its proposed
business and to finance the costs of future offerings of its securities. I
further understand and have been advised by the Company that the business
activities of the Company and an investment in the Company are subject to
substantial risks.
