  8. In addition to the checks and due diligence on the Issuer, we will also undertake a review of the Issuer's business model, financial history and performance and the Issuer's capital needs, including an analysis in relation to the viability and likelihood of success of the Issuer's business (with or without new capital). Our decision to publish the Offer by the Issuer on the Platform must not be taken by any person as an indication of the merits of the Offer or our endorsement of the Offer.

• We only perform preliminary assessments on the Issuers and to the extent permitted by law, owe no legal responsibility to Investors.
• We are not obliged to monitor the Issuer after proceeds are paid to the Issuer or in respect of the actual use of the proceeds received by the Issuer.

• We do not make any representation, warranty, promise or indication, express or implied, about the success or otherwise of the Issuers either in their ability to raise capital through the Platform or as to their future prospects once they have received capital, or past, current or future financial, business or legal status or affairs of the Issuers, their stakeholders or industry.
• You must read and understand the risk of investing through crowdfunding platforms such as the Platform and are encouraged to seek independent advice. The Company does not provide any advice (including without limitation investment, legal, taxation or other advice) with respect to any aspect of the transactions conducted through the Platform. Nothing on the Platform or any communications sent to you shall constitute or is intended to constitute advice.
• You must also be aware that the searches and investigations carried out by the Company may be incomplete as government records may not be up to date and occasionally may not contain certain key information.

• Investors do not need to pay any fees or charges to us in relation to any Offer or investment.
• Notwithstanding the above, we reserve the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, to introduce fees or charges payable by Investors. Any introduction of fees or charges payable by Investors will only be effective upon this Agreement being varied or revised in the manner provided herein.

We may charge the Issuer for any additional services requested by the Issuer. The scope of any such charges will be agreed with the Issuer before incurring such costs or charges. The additional services requested by the Issuer shall form part of the main services we offer to the Issuer under the Issuer Agreement.

• Being an Investor and investing through crowdfunding platforms such as the Platform, you must understand the riskiness thereof and make your own assessment and decision as to whether or not to proceed with the investment.
• You acknowledge and are clearly aware that:
  1. you should (i) conduct your own thorough research, investigation and analysis on the Issuer and all relevant information and documents provided; and (ii) consult your own professional financial and legal advisers, to assess the merits and risks before committing in any investment;
  2. the Issuers using the Platform to raise funds are private start-up, early stage or small or medium sized companies. Investment in these types of businesses is relatively speculative and carries higher risks compared to other public securities offerings under Malaysian law;
  3. Issuer's performances are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events and the future results of the Issuer to be different from the anticipated performance. You are prepared to bear the economic and financial risks of losing your entire investment;

  5. Offers being made on the Platform and registration of the Platform with the SC shall not be regarded as merits indication or recommendation to participate in any investment;
  6. your investment made through the Platform will be illiquid as there is no public market for the shares of the Issuers and you are unlikely to be able to sell your shares until and unless the Issuer is listed on the securities exchange market (including secondary market recognised by the SC) or is acquired by another company which may take a number of years from the time of your investment;
  7. if the Issuer raises additional capital at a later date, it may issue new shares to new investors and thus the percentage of the Issuer’s shares that you own may be diluted accordingly. The new shares may carry certain preferential rights to dividends, sale proceeds and others which may work to your disadvantage; and
  8. all monetary transactions made through our platform shall be in RM unless specified otherwise. As such, if your investment herein is made through a non-RM denominated account, your investment amount may be different depending on the exchange rate of the day as set out by the relevant financial institutions. Any deficit or losses as a result of the fluctuation in exchange rate shall be at your own risk.

• The Company, including any of our individual directors and shareholders, will disclose to the public on the Platform if -

  2. we pay any referrer or introducer, or receive payment in whatever form, including payment in the form of shares, in connection with an Issuer hosted on the Platform.
