Use of the Platform and these disclaimers and disclosures are subject to the Platform’s Terms of Use; any capitalized term used but not defined in these disclaimers and disclosures will have the meaning provided in the Platform Terms of Use. Forge does not (i) advise parties on the merits of a particular transaction, (ii) assist in negotiation, transaction, or financial dealings between users or with the issuer of company shares, (iii) assist in the fair market value of any security or investment, or (iv) provide legal, tax or advisory services to its users. An offer or solicitation can be made only through the delivery of the final offering and purchase document(s) and will be subject to the terms and conditions and risks delivered in such documents. Valuations are approximate based on analysis of data that has been publicly disclosed. The public information incorporated into Forge’s analysis may be incomplete and has not been independently corroborated by Forge. There may exist material non-public information that impacts valuation. Valuations are intended to be illustrative rather than definitive and are subject to change. Investors should conduct their own research and analysis on companies of interest and should not rely on Forge’s analysis. Valuation and capitalization table data has not been confirmed or approved by the issuer or any specialist valuation experts. Any graphs may deviate from linear scale for presentation purposes. Outstanding share count is based on available public data and assumes a fully distributed option pool. Any information relating to fully diluted shares outstanding, or other company-related financing or capitalization information, are estimates only and should be independently verified by each user in connection with any investment opportunity. All investment opportunities are based on non-binding indications of interest from sellers and will need to be confirmed. Opportunity size and price-per-share figures do not include transaction fees or fees charged by Forge Securities LLC. Investing in private company securities is not suitable for all investors. An investment in private company securities is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk and should only be considered a long-term investment. You must be prepared to withstand a total loss of your investment. Private company securities are also highly illiquid, and there is no assurance that your investment objectives will be attained or guarantee that a market will develop for such securities. Each investment also carries its own specific risks and you should complete your own independent due diligence regarding the investment, including obtaining additional information about the company, opinions, financial projections and legal or other investment advice. Accordingly, investing in private company securities is appropriate only for those investors who can tolerate a high degree of risk and do not require a liquid investment. Inherent, actual or potential conflicts of interest may exist between you and Forge. Under no circumstances should any person make trading decisions based solely on the information provided on Forge. We are not a qualified financial advisor, and you should not construe any information discussed herein to constitute investment advice. It is strictly informational in nature. You are solely responsible for making your own investment decisions and any consequences relating to such decisions. Total closed transaction volume includes representation of buyers and sellers in securities transactions conducted through Forge Securities LLC (Member FINRA/SIPC) and Emerson Equity LLC (Member FINRA/SIPC and a broker dealer for SharesPost Inc.) in 2011, Forge Markets LLC, as well as the placement of fund interest in third party and affiliated Funds. Forge makes no representation or warranty or guarantee as to the completeness, accuracy, timeliness or suitability of any information contained within any communication from Forge nor that it is free from error. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Forge does not accept any liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise whatsoever and whether or not Forge has been negligent) for any loss or damage (including, without limitation, loss of profit), which may arise directly or indirectly from the use of or reliance on such information.

Users are solely responsible for their use of Forge forms of agreement and should read these important disclaimers before initiating the transaction process. Forge strongly recommends users consult their legal or financial advisors prior to entering into any agreement. Transactions initiated on Forge generally require the buyer and seller to enter into additional agreements, including commission agreement with Forge Securities LLC and an escrow agreement with a third-party provider for escrow of the buyer’s funds and evidence of the seller’s ownership of securities. Most issuers of securities require the buyer and seller to enter into a stock transfer agreement with it before the issuer agrees to process a change in ownership of its securities on its books and records.
