Securities Matters

The Services include access to information regarding securities we are proposing to offer for sale, including one or more Private Placement Memorandums (“PPM(s)”).

Information contained in a PPM is subject to completion or amendment. A PPM shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor may there be any sales of these securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful before registration or qualification under the laws of any such state.

Any written communication regarding solicitations of interest in a contemplated offering will include a means by which you may indicate to us that you are interested in a potential offering. We may require your name, address, telephone number, and/or email address in any response form included pursuant to this paragraph.

If solicitation of interest materials are used and such solicitation of interest materials contain information that is inaccurate or inadequate in any material respect, revised solicitation of interest materials will be redistributed in a substantially similar manner as such materials were originally distributed.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk, including risks associated with income tax, use of proceeds and conflicts of interest. Before buying any securities, you should carefully read the discussion of material risks of investing in the securities in the “Risk Factors” section of a PPM.

THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION DOES NOT PASS UPON THE MERITS OF OR GIVE ITS APPROVAL TO ANY SECURITIES OFFERED OR THE TERMS OF THE OFFERING, NOR DOES IT PASS UPON THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY PPM OR OTHER SOLICITATION MATERIALS. THESE SECURITIES ARE OFFERED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION WITH THE COMMISSION; HOWEVER, THE COMMISSION HAS NOT MADE AN INDEPENDENT DETERMINATION THAT THE SECURITIES OFFERED ARE EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION.

Some of the content included in the Services summarizes information regarding the contemplated securities offering. Such summaries do not contain all of the information you should consider before deciding whether to purchase our securities. The summaries are subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the detailed provisions of the applicable PPM, and the other agreements associated with this offering. You should carefully read the entire applicable PPM, including the information under the heading “Risk Factors.”

We prepared the content included in the Services without reference to any particular user’s investment requirements or financial situation. Potential investors are urged to consult with professional tax, legal and financial advisors before making any investment.
