EXHIBIT A
Form of Subscription Letter
GULFWEST OIL COMPANY
GulfWest Oil Company
16800 Dallas Parkway, Suite 250
Dallas, Texas 75248
Gentlemen:
1. Subscription. The undersigned (the "Investor") subscribes for and agrees
to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock ("Shares") issued by GulfWest Oil
Company ("GulfWest") in the original principal amount set forth on the signature
page below. The Investor acknowledges that this subscription (i) is irrevocable
and (ii) is conditioned upon acceptance by or on behalf of GulfWest and may be
accepted or rejected in whole or in part by GulfWest in its sole discretion.
2. Representations and Warranties. To induce GulfWest to accept this
subscription, the Investor represents and warrants as follows:
(a) The Investor has had adequate opportunity to obtain
information from and ask questions of the officers or representatives
of GulfWest concerning the business of GulfWest. The Investor has such
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the
Shares, is able to bear the risks of an investment in the Shares and
understands the risks of, and other considerations relating to, an
investment in the Shares.
(b) The Investor is an "accredited investor" within the meaning
of Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act").
(c) The Shares to be acquired hereunder are being acquired by the
Investor for the Investor's own account for investment purposes only
and not with a view to resale or distribution.
(d) The Investor understands that the Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act, the securities laws of any state
or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, nor is such
registration contemplated. The Investor understands and agrees further
that the Shares must be held indefinitely unless subsequently
registered under the Securities Act and these state securities laws or
an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and these
state securities laws covering the sale of the Shares is available.
The Investor understands that legends stating that the Shares have not
been registered under the Securities Act and these state securities
laws and setting out or referring to the restrictions on the
transferability and resale of the Shares will be placed on the Shares.
The Investor's overall commitment to GulfWest and other investments
which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the
1
<PAGE>
Investor's net worth and the Investor has no need for immediate
liquidity in the Investor's investment in the Shares.
(e) To the full satisfaction of the Investor, the Investor has
been furnished any materials the Investor has requested relating to
GulfWest or the offering of the Shares, and the Investor has been
afforded the opportunity to ask questions of representatives of
GulfWest concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and to
obtain any additional information the Investor deems necessary. The
Investor has carefully read and thoroughly inspected the Private
Offering Memorandum dated March 25, 1998 related to the offering of
the Shares (the "Memorandum").
(f) The Investor is not relying upon any other information,
representation or warranty by GulfWest, or any of its affiliates or
their respective agents in determining to invest in GulfWest. The
Investor has consulted to the extent deemed appropriate by the
Investor with the Investor's own advisers as to the financial, tax,
legal and related matters concerning an investment in the Shares and
on that basis believes that an investment in the Shares is suitable
and appropriate for the Investor.
(g) This Subscription Agreement has been duly executed by the
Investor and constitutes a valid and legally binding agreement of the
Investor.
3. Tax Information. The Investor will complete and return with this
Subscription Agreement IRS Form W-9, Payer's Request for Taxpayer Identification
Number and Certification. The Investor is not a non-resident alien individual,
foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate (as
defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986) and the Investor will notify
GulfWest within 60 days of a change to foreign status. The Investor agrees to
properly execute and provide to GulfWest in a timely manner any tax
documentation that may be reasonably required by GulfWest.
4. Further Advice and Assurances. All information which the Investor has
provided to GulfWest is correct and complete as of the date hereof, and the
Investor agrees to notify GulfWest immediately if any representation or warranty
contained in this Subscription Agreement becomes untrue prior to the Investor's
investment in the Shares. The Investor agrees to provide such information and
execute and deliver such documents as GulfWest may reasonably request to verify
the accuracy of the Investor's representations and warranties herein or to
comply with any law or regulation to which GulfWest may be subject.
5. Payment of Subscription. The Investor shall pay the amount of the
Investor's subscription hereunder by delivery of a check to GulfWest. If the
Investor's subscription is rejected in whole or in part, the amount rejected
shall be promptly returned by check without interest to the Investor.
6. Registration Rights. In the event that, at any time after the date that
is one year following the consummation of the offering described in the
Memorandum (the "Offering") and before the date that is three years following
the consummation of the Offering, GulfWest files a registration statement on a
form promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") pursuant
to which the resale of the Shares may be registered (such registration
statement, a "Qualifying Registration Statement"), GulfWest will, at Investor's
2
<PAGE>
option, cause the resale of the Shares to be registered under the Securities Act
(either on a current or continuous or delayed basis) under such Qualifying
Registration Statement. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring
GulfWest to file a Qualifying Registration Statement at any time. GulfWest's
obligations as set forth in this paragraph in any event shall be subject to and
limited by (i) applicable law and (ii) if the Qualifying Registration Statement
relates to an underwritten offering, the reasonable requirements, conditions and
limitations (including but not limited to any limitation upon the number of
Shares that may be sold pursuant to the Qualifying Registration Statement) as
may be required or imposed by the underwriters of such underwritten offering.
GulfWest shall only be required to effect two registrations pursuant to this
paragraph. In any event, GulfWest's obligations as set forth in this section
shall extinguish on the date that is three years following the consummation of
the Offering.
In the event that, at any time after the date that is six months following
the consummation of the Offering and prior to the date that is one year
following the consummation of the Offering (the "Registration Period"), the
holders of two-thirds of the Shares demand (one time only) that the Company
register the resale of their Shares under the Securities Act (a "Demand
Registration"), the Company shall promptly register the resale of their Shares
under the Securities Act (subject to the right of the Company to defer such
registration for a reasonable time in the event that, in the good faith
determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, such registration would
have a material adverse effect upon the Company). If the Company registers the
resale of the Shares through a registration statement allowing the offering the
Shares to be registered on a delayed or continuous basis, the Company shall use
its reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration
statement for a period of one year. In the event that the Company receives a
request to effect a Demand Registration during the Registration Period from the
holders of one-third of the Shares, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts
to apprise all of the holders of the Shares of such request so that the
remaining holders may join in such request for a Demand Registration.
7. Miscellaneous. This Subscription Agreement is not assignable by the
Investor without the written consent of GulfWest. The representations and
warranties made by the Investor in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the
closing of the transactions contemplated hereby and any investigation made by
GulfWest. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of
which together shall constitute one instrument, and shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.
