Federal securities law requires securities sold in the United States to be registered with the SEC, unless the sale qualifies for an exemption. The Offerings and securities offered on the Website or U.S. investments have not been registered under the Securities Act and are being offered in reliance on an exemption provided under Regulation Crowdfunding.

All investment funds are held by an escrow agent pending completion or termination of an Offering. Investment overviews on the Website contain summaries of the purpose and principal terms of each Offering. Such summaries are intended for informational purposes only and do not purport to be complete, and each is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed discussions contained in the investor document package relating to such Offering. The information contained on the Website and in the Offering materials have been prepared by the respective issuer without reference to any particular User’s investment requirements or financial situation, and potential investors are encouraged to consult with professional tax, legal and financial advisors before making any investment. FLAT99INVEST shall have the right but not the obligation to remove, cancel or reject the posting of any Offerings. Failure to remove, cancel or reject Offerings suspected of violating the securities laws does not constitute an endorsement or approval of said Offerings by FLAT99INVEST. The information provided herein shall not be deemed legal advice. You are strongly advised to consult with your own legal counsel.

No Disqualifying Events

Each issuer warrants and represents that none of its predecessors, any affiliated issuer, any director, executive officer, other officer of the issuer participating in the Offering, any investment managers and their principals, any beneficial owner of 20% or more of the issuer’s outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power, any promoter (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) connected with the issuer in any capacity at the time of sale nor any compensated solicitor or any general partner, managing member, director, executive officer, or other officer of the compensated solicitor participating in the Offering (each, an “Issuer Covered Person” and collectively, “Issuer Covered Persons”) is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifying events described in Rule 503 of Regulation Crowdfunding, (a “Disqualifying Event”). Each issuer that posts an Offering on this Website warrants and represents that it has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Issuer Covered Person is subject to a Disqualifying Event and will promptly notify subscribed investors in writing should any Disqualifying Events occur or prior Disqualifying Events come to the issuer’s notice despite its reasonable efforts to discover and immediately consult their legal counsel.

Investor Requirements

Issuers will be able to post Offerings to the Website subject to the exemptions from registration under Regulation Crowdfunding and permitted by Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. Users intending to invest in an Offering will be subject to certain investing limitations that will depend on the particular type of Offering being conducted. Prior to investing, you may be asked to fill out a certification and provide necessary documentation as proof of your income and/or net worth and may be required to verify that you are qualified to invest in Offerings posted on this Website. You acknowledge and agree that all information you provide for the registration is complete and accurate.

Offerings Subject to Investment Limits

The Offerings posted on this Website pursuant to Section 4(a)(6) under the Securities Act and Regulation Crowdfunding (“Regulation Crowdfunding”) are available to all investors, including Accredited Investors and Non-Accredited Investors. If you are investing in a Regulation Crowdfunding Offering posted on this Website, you represent and warrant that, within the last twelve (12) months, your investment in such Offering does not exceed (i) the greater of: $2,000 or 5% of the lesser of your annual income or net worth, if either your annual income or net worth is less than $107,000; or (ii) 10% of the lesser of your annual income or net worth, if both your annual income or net worth is greater than $107,000, but not to exceed $107,000 of securities in aggregate across all issuers.

Users agree to cooperate with any requests by the Website or any issuer for additional information or documentation.

You are responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of your user name and password. You are liable for any charges, damages or losses incurred by you or us as a result of your failure to maintain the confidentiality of your user name or password. If you suspect any unauthorized use of your user name or password, you should notify us immediately.

Risk Related to Securities Offered on the Website

The securities offered on the Website are only suitable for prospective investors who are familiar with and willing to accept the high risks associated with any Offering, including the risk of complete loss of your investment. Securities sold through the Website may not necessarily be publicly traded and, therefore, may be illiquid unless registered with the SEC. Such securities may be subject to restrictions on resale or transfer, including holding period requirements. Investing in any Offering requires high risk tolerance, low liquidity need, and long-term commitments. Users must be able to afford to lose their entire investment. Investment products are not FDIC insured, may lose value, and there is no bank guarantee.

The securities being offered on the Website have not been registered under the Securities Act, in reliance, among other exemptions, on the exemptive provisions of Regulation Crowdfunding, as applicable. Similar reliance has been placed on apparently available exemptions from securities registration or qualification requirements under applicable state securities laws.

Users must read the offering materials and transaction documents for each of the Offerings posted on the Website for more information and discuss any questions with each issuer directly prior to investing. No assurance can be given that any Offering currently qualifies or will continue to qualify under one or more of such exemptive provisions due to, among other things, the adequacy of disclosure and the manner of distribution, the existence of similar Offerings in the past or in the future, or a change of any securities law or regulation that has retroactive effect. No governmental agency has reviewed the Offerings posted on this Website and no state or federal agency has passed upon either the adequacy of the disclosure contained herein or the fairness of the terms of any Offering. The exemptions relied upon for such Offerings are significantly dependent upon the accuracy of the representations of the Users to be made to the Website and issuers on the Website in connection with an Offering. In the event that any such representations prove to be untrue, the registration exemptions relied upon by an issuer in offering or selling securities on the Website might not be available and substantial liability to such issuer would result under applicable securities laws for rescission or damages. These risks are non-exhaustive and are intended to highlight certain risks associated with investing in securities that are not registered with the SEC. WE STRONGLY ADVISE YOU TO CONSULT A LEGAL, TAX AND FINANCIAL PROFESSIONAL BEFORE INVESTING, AND CAREFULLY REVIEW ALL THE SPECIFIC RISK DISCLOSURES PROVIDED AS PART OF ANY OFFERING MATERIALS AND ASK THE ISSUER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE OR REQUEST ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

Compensation Disclosure

We do not charge investors any fees for accessing the portal. FLAT99INVEST and other third party service fees for each offering are disclosed in the respective offering materials. FLAT99INVEST fees in connection with the offerings posted on this funding portal consist of 0% of the gross proceeds (total amount raised) of each offering.

15. Reports and Complaints

If you believe that a User has acted inappropriately, such as by violating these Terms, you may report your concerns either via the links we have included on the Website, or by contacting us by the means described above. If we are notified by a User that he or she believes that certain Content at the Website is in violation of these Terms, we may investigate the allegation and determine in good faith, in our sole discretion, whether to remove or block access to such Content, or to take action with respect to person or persons responsible for posting the Content. We have the right (but not the obligation), in our sole discretion, to remove, relocate, or otherwise block or restrict any Content, with or without notice, and without liability.

16. Disputes

You are solely responsible for your interaction with other Users that involve or arise from your relationship to the Website. Although we may monitor claims that involve you and other Users, we have no obligation to become involved. If you become involved in such a dispute, and our provision of Services is an insubstantial factor (or no factor) in creating this dispute, then you release us from claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or connected with such dispute.

Agreement for Binding Arbitration. We do not anticipate having any disagreements with you, the user, regarding usage of this Website. But if any concerns about these matters arise, please notify us immediately. We would endeavor to resolve any disagreements in a fair and amicable manner. If it is not possible to resolve the disputes ourselves, then each party hereby agrees that all disputes or claims between you and the Company of any nature whatsoever, including but not limited to those relating to use of the Website or the quality or appropriateness of services offered by the Website shall be resolved by binding arbitration. The Company chooses arbitration because it is usually less expensive and quicker than litigation and will allow us to resolve our disputes privately.

You agree that, by entering into this Agreement, you and FLAT99INVEST are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement. YOU AND FLAT99INVEST AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and the Company agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitration shall be conducted by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”). The arbitrator must decide all disputes in accordance with the chosen association’s rules and in accordance with Utah law, and shall have power and obligation to decide all matters submitted, including arbitrability and legal questions raised by pleading or summary judgment motions. In the event that any dispute or claim is determined not subject to arbitration by the arbitrator, all parties agree that their respective rights and obligations shall be governed by the laws of the State of Utah, excluding its choice of law rules. Furthermore, in the event that any dispute or claim is determined not subject to arbitration by the arbitrator, all parties agree that any and all legal action or proceedings shall be instituted in a state or federal court in Utah.

Users understand that they are free to consult with other counsel about the wisdom of agreeing to arbitration or to any other term of this agreement before accepting it, and User agrees that by using this Website, it is voluntarily accepting this agreement.

We may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, at our sole discretion. You may not assign your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior express written permission. Any attempt by you to assign your rights or obligations under these Terms without our permission shall be void. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid by any court having jurisdiction to make such a determination, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms, which shall remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any of these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or any other term or condition. Our failure to act with respect to a breach of these Terms does not waive our right to act with respect to that breach or subsequent breaches. Except as expressly and specifically contemplated by these Terms, no representations, statements, consents, waivers or other acts or omissions by us shall be deemed legally binding on us, unless documented in a physical writing hand signed by one of our duly appointed officers.
