CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The information contained in this Offering Circular includes some statements that are not historical and that are considered “forward-looking statements.” Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding:

 

  · our development plans for our business;
  · our strategies and business outlook;
  · the racing prospects for the respective Underlying Assets;
  · potential distributions or dividends of race winnings and other revenue sources;
  · anticipated development of the Company, the Manager and each Series of the Company;
  · the overall growth of the horse racing industry;
  · our compliance with regulatory matters (including the Investment Company Act, Investment Advisers Act and state securities regulations);
  · the development of the MyRacehorse™ Platform (defined below); and
  · various other matters (including contingent liabilities and obligations and changes in accounting policies, standards and interpretations).

 

These forward-looking statements express the Manager’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, and intentions regarding the future. In addition, without limiting the foregoing, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipates”, “believes”, “continue”, “could”, “estimates”, “expects”, “intends”, “may”, “might”, “plans”, “possible”, “potential”, “predicts”, “projects”, “seeks”, “should”, “will”, “would” and similar expressions and variations, or comparable terminology, or the negatives of any of the foregoing, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

 

The forward-looking statements contained in this Offering Circular are based on current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments that are difficult to predict. Neither the Company nor the Manager can guarantee future performance, or that future developments affecting the Company, the Manager or the MyRacehorse™ Platform will be as currently anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

 

All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by these risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties, along with others, are also described below under the heading “Risk Factors.” Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the parties’ assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements and should not make an investment decision based solely on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

OFFERING SUMMARY

 

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information appearing elsewhere herein and in the Exhibits hereto. You should read the entire Offering Circular and carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth in the section captioned Risk Factors.” You are encouraged to seek the advice of your attorney, tax consultant, and business advisor with respect to the legal, tax, and business aspects of an investment in the Interests. All references in this Offering Circular to “$” or “dollars” are to United States dollars.

 

The Company: The Company is My Racehorse CA LLC, a Nevada series limited liability company formed on December 27, 2016.
   
Underlying Asset(s) and Offering Per Series Interest: The Underlying Asset for each Series and the Offering Price per Interest for each respective Series is set forth in the description for such asset herein.

 

  The assets of all Series described below may collectively be referred to herein as the “Underlying Assets” and each, individually, as an “Underlying Asset.” It is not anticipated that any of the Series would own any assets other than said interest in such Underlying Asset, plus certain prepaid cash reserves for insurance and other administrative expenses pertaining to the Series and amounts earned from the monetization of such Underlying Asset.

 

Securities Offered: Investors will acquire membership interests in a Series of the Company, each of which is intended to be a separate series of the Company for purposes of assets and liabilities. It is intended that owners of interests in a Series will only have assets, liabilities, profits and losses pertaining to the specific Underlying Assets owned by that Series. For example, an owner of interests in Series Adaay In Asia will only have an interest in the assets, liabilities, profits and losses pertaining to Series Adaay In Asia and its related operations and not as it relates to Series Knarsdale 21 or any other series. See the “Description of Interests Offered” section for further details. The Interests will be non-voting except with respect to certain limited matters set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Series Limited Liability Company Agreement of the Company (the “Company Agreement” or “Operating Agreement”). The purchase of membership interests in a Series of the Company is an investment only in that Series (and with respect to that Series’ Underlying Asset) and not an investment in the Company as a whole.
   
Investors/Members: A purchaser of the Interests shall be deemed an “Investor” or “Interest Holder” and become a Member of such series it invests in. The purchase of membership interests in a Series of the Company is an investment only in that Series (and with respect to that Series’ Underlying Asset) and not an investment in the Company as a whole. Each Investor must be a “qualified purchaser.” See “Plan of Distribution and Subscription Procedure – Investor Suitability Standards” for further details. The Manager may, in its sole discretion, decline to admit any prospective Investor, or accept only a portion of such Investor’s subscription, regardless of whether such person is a “qualified purchaser”.

Manager:

Experiential Squared, Inc., a Delaware corporation, will serve as the manager of the Company and of each Series (the “Manager” or “Experiential”) pursuant to that certain Management Services Agreement (the “Management Agreement”). Experiential offers leading horse racing management services. Experiential employs a team of experts in horse racing management including a resident veterinarian, a global Head of Bloodstock and Stable management and multiple racing mangers, based in the three major US horse racing markets; Kentucky, California and New York. These experts have over 100 years combined experiences, buying, selling and managing racehorses. Experiential also owns and operates a web platform and a mobile app-based investment platform called MyRacehorse™ (the MyRacehorse™ platform and any successor platform used by the Company for the offer and sale of interests, shall be referred to as the “MyRacehorse™ Platform”), which is licensed to the Company pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, through which the Interests are sold.

 

The Manager and/or its affiliates may, from time to time, purchase Interests at their discretion on the same terms and conditions as the Investors. The Company, the Manager, its affiliates and/or third parties may also (1) acquire horses that are listed on MyRacehorse.com pursuant to a promissory note between the Series and lender or (2) have the Series acquire the horses upon close of the respective offering. In many instances, said lender will have a right, prior to completion of the Offering, to participate in pre-closing dividends from revenue generated by its interest in the Underlying Asset and the right to convert into the unsold portion of the offering prior to being fully funded.

 

Broker:

The Company has entered into an agreement with Dalmore Group, LLC (“Dalmore” or the “Broker”) a New York limited liability company and a broker-dealer which is registered with the Commission and is registered in each state where such Offering will be made prior to the launch of such Offering. Dalmore will act as the broker/dealer of record for each transaction and provide related services in connection with such Offering as described in the Broker-Dealer Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit 6.2.

 

Dalmore is a member of FINRA.

   
Minimum Interest purchase:

The minimum subscription by an Investor is 1 Interest in a Series. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager has discretion to increase the minimum subscription by an Investor to greater than 1 Interest in a Series.

 

 

 

 4 

 

 

Purchase Price Consideration; Gift Cards:

The Purchase price for an Investor’s subscription will be payable in cash in United States Dollars at the time of subscription.

 

In addition, the Company sells gift cards for cash that are redeemable only for merchandise, racetrack experiences and as consideration for the purchase of Interests on the MyRacehorse™ Platform.

 

The gift cards are valued at the cash value paid (e.g. if a purchaser pays $100 they get a gift card with a $100 value), are not redeemable for cash (except as required by applicable law), have no expiration date and may be used solely on the MyRacehorse™ Platform. There are no discounts, differentiated pricing or other more favorable offering terms given or credited to Investors that use gift cards in connection with the purchase of Interests.

 

To the extent even a $1 balance on a gift card remains, it can be used towards the purchase of Interests in combination with cash.

 

Gift cards can also be purchased by 3rd party businesses looking to provide gifts, perks, promotions or incentives to their customers, clients or employees.

 

The recipient or user of a gift card, regardless of how it was obtained will still need to qualify as a “qualified purchaser” to invest and will be subject to the same subscription process as Investors that subscribe for cash. See “Investor Suitability Standards” and “Plan of Distribution and Subscription Procedure” for more information.

   
Offering size: There is no minimum offering amount for the sale of Interests in each Offering. The Maximum Interests offered per Series is set forth in the “Series Membership Interests Overview” table set forth above.

 

Offering Period: There will be a separate closing for each Offering. Each Offering is being conducted on a best efforts basis without any minimum target. The Company undertakes closings on a rolling basis for each Offering. After each closing, funds tendered by Investors will be available to the Company. Because each Offering is being made on a best efforts basis and without a minimum offering amount, the Company may close each Offering at any level of proceeds raised. Each respective Offering shall be terminated on the earlier of (i) the date subscriptions for the Maximum Interests of such Series have been accepted, (ii) a date determined by the Manager in its sole discretion, or (iii) the date which is one year from the date this Offering Circular is qualified by the Commission which period may be extended by an additional six months by the Manager in its sole discretion.

 

 

 

 5 

 

 

Additional Investors: After the Closing of each Offering, no Member will be required to make additional capital contributions. If a Series’ funds are insufficient to meet the needs of the Series, the Manager may (a) advance or loan funds to such Series, on which the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, which shall not be lower than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount from future revenues generated by such Series, and/or (b) cause additional Interests to be issued in order to cover such additional amounts.

 

  In the event that the Manager determines to issue additional Interests (as described in (b) above), the Manager shall notify the Members of the need for additional capital and the Members may be permitted, but not required, to make additional capital contributions to the Series on a pro-rata basis. In the event all Members do not make additional capital contributions, the Manager has discretion to sell additional Interests to third parties to meet the capital needs of such Series.

 

Use of proceeds:

The proceeds received by a Series from its respective Offering will be applied in the following order of priority of payment:

 

(i) Brokerage Fee: A fee equal to 1.0% of the amount raised through this Offering (which excludes any Interests purchased by the Manager, its affiliates or the Horse Sellers) paid to Dalmore as compensation for brokerage services;

 

(ii) Due Diligence Fee: A fee paid to Manager as compensation for due diligence services in evaluating, investigation and discovering the Underlying Assets and establishing the Series, not to exceed the maximum Due Diligence Fee as detailed in the Use of Proceeds for each Series. This fee includes the costs associated with managing all aspects of the selection of horses and the establishment of a series. This also includes the selection and oversight of third-party contractors such as attorneys, accountants, and bloodstock agents.

 

(iii) Asset Cost of the Underlying Asset: Actual cost of the Underlying Asset paid to the Horse Seller (which may have been paid off prior to such Offering through a loan to the Company), including any accrued interest under potential loans to the Series and through down-payments by the Manager and/or its affiliates to acquire an interest in the Underlying Asset prior to an Offering; and will include sales tax and/or an up to 5.0% Bloodstock Fee (defined below), if applicable in selecting the Underlying Asset.

 

(iv) Offering Expenses: In general, these costs include actual legal, accounting, underwriting, filing and compliance costs incurred by the Company in connection with an Offering of a series of Interests (and excludes ongoing costs described in Operating Expenses), as applicable, paid to legal advisors, printing and accounting firms, as the case may be. In the case of the Offerings hereunder, the Manager has agreed to pay and not be reimbursed for Offering Expenses.

 

 

 

 6 

 

 

 

The Manager bears all expenses related to item (iii) above on behalf of a Series and is reimbursed by a Series through the proceeds of a successful offering. In addition, the Manager or an affiliate may loan the Company or a Series the funds required to pay any costs identified in item (ii), which will be reimbursed through the proceeds of a successful offering or refunded if an offering is aborted. Any loans made under item (iii), other than down-payments, accrue interest at the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code).

 

Commencing with new Offerings (including herein), the Company has re-organized, further defined, and added clarity to its fee structure by restructuring the Fees and Expenses which may be charged to a Series as part of the Offering amount as further described in the Use of Proceeds section for such Series as follows:

 

(A) Management/Due Diligence Fee: The Company is combining its existing due diligence and management fee structures into a single, ongoing Management/Due Diligence Fee of approximately 15% of the offering proceeds, which will cover the Manager’s work on behalf of a Series during its lifecycle. This includes the existing Due Diligence Fee which is a fee paid to Manager as compensation for due diligence services in evaluating, investigation and discovering the Underlying Assets and establishing the Series, not to exceed the maximum Due Diligence Fee as detailed in the Use of Proceeds for each Series. This fee includes the costs associated with managing all aspects of the selection of horses and the establishment of a series. This also includes the selection and oversight of third-party contractors such as attorneys, accountants, and bloodstock agents. In addition, ongoing work for management and decision-making related to veterinarians, co-owners, trainers, boarding facilities and review and audit of bills (from veterinarians, trainers, farriers etc.) will be covered here. The existing “Management Fee” as discussed below will be transitioned to a “Management Performance Bonus” which will only accrue in certain circumstances as described below.

 

(B) Organizational and Experiential Fee: This fee covers several organizational and experiential aspects of the business and is fixed at 7.50% of the gross cash proceeds. First, any Offering Expenses associated with an offering, including actual legal, accounting, underwriting, filing and compliance costs incurred by the Company in connection with an Offering of a Series of Interests (and excludes ongoing costs described in Operating Expenses), as applicable, paid to legal advisors and other third parties, as the case may be, will be covered. Second, fees paid to the Manager for the experiential activities associated with ownership of a racehorse in a Series, including marketing costs, event planning, content development and hosting on the MyRacehorse™ Platform, and Membership Experience Programs (as discussed further in the “Description of the Business”). This fee may be discounted for certain Series or such fees could be capped for Investors with multiple or sizable Series investments (which would have the result of a discounted effective Offering Price to such frequent or large-scale Investors). To the extent that there are any discounts or a deviation from the disclosed Fees and Expenses, then such disclosures will be memorialized in the description of the corresponding Series in which the respective discount or deviation applies. Lastly, any ongoing organizational costs to cover legal and compliance expenses incurred to set up the legal and financial framework and compliance infrastructure for the marketing and sale of the Series Interests and ongoing costs for compliance, reporting and legal.

 

 

 

 7 

 

 

   

(C) Asset Cost of the Underlying Asset: No changes – see (iii) above for description.

 

(D) Brokerage Fee: A fee equal to 1.0% of the amount raised through this Offering (which excludes any Interests purchased by the Manager, its affiliates or the Horse Sellers) paid to Dalmore as compensation for brokerage services.

 

(E) Bloodstock Fee: A fee equal to up to 5% payable to the Manager  (“Bloodstock Fee”). The Bloodstock Fee may vary depending on the specific terms and conditions negotiated in connection with each Series and Underlying Asset and is payable to the Manager related to work done assessing a potential transaction. Please review the Use of Proceeds for each.

 

(F) Use Tax: a form of sales tax that is paid by the Company and is (1) imposed on the use, storage, or consumption of an item, and (2) is complementary to a general sales tax that would be deductible with respect to similar items, as such term is defined by 26 U.S. Code Section 164 (“Use Tax”). The Use Tax may vary depending on the specific terms and conditions negotiated in connection with each Series and Underlying Asset. Please review the Use of Proceeds for each.

 

As discussed above, these fees were typically either offset by the Due Diligence Fee or billed to the Series as Operating Expenses previously but will now be specifically allocated to the Use of Proceeds for each new Offering. None of these changes apply to previously qualified Offerings.

 

To date, the Company has not directly charged Offering Expenses as part of the Offering despite reserving the right to do so. As part of the re-structuring of its fee structure, the Company plans to do so moving forward as part of (D).

 

(G) Operating Expense Reserve. As the Company has done previously, a portion of the offering amount goes to prepaid expense reserves to cover “Operating Expenses” of a Series as described below.

 

See “Use of Proceeds” for each Series and “Plan of Distribution and Subscription Procedure – Fees and Expenses” sections for further details on the specific fees charged as to each individual Series.

 

Operating Expenses: “Operating Expenses” are costs and expenses attributable to the activities of the Series (collectively, “Operating Expenses”), which may be as much as or greater than the actual cost of a Series’ interest in the applicable Underlying Asset, including:

 

  · costs incurred in managing the Underlying Asset, including, but not limited to boarding, maintenance, training and transportation costs (the “Upkeep Fees”);

 

  · costs incurred prior to the offering of the Underlying Asset, including, but not limited to costs associated with the initial acquisition of the Underlying Asset, vet checks, etc. related to the pre-offering operation of the Underlying Asset (“Prepaid Expenses”), and, to the extent that Prepaid Expenses are lower than anticipated, any overage would be maintained in an operating account for future Operating Expenses and/or Distributable Cash which occur after the acquisition of the Underlying Asset;

 

 

 

 8 

 

 

  · costs incurred in preparing any reports and accounts of the Series, including any tax filings and any annual audit of the accounts of the Series (if applicable) or costs payable to any third-party registrar or transfer agent or governmental body and any reports to be filed with the Commission including periodic reports on Forms 1-K, 1-SA and 1-U;

 

  · any indemnification payments; and

 

  · any and all insurance premiums or related expenses in connection with the Underlying Asset, including mortality, loss of use, liability and/or medical insurance of the Underlying Asset to insure against the death, injury or third party liability of racehorse ownership (as described in “Description of the Business – Business of the Company”). The decision to purchase insurance on a horse is made on a horse-by-horse basis. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT A HORSE YOU INVEST IN WILL BE INSURED.

 

 

The Company has purchased mortality insurance for Adaay in Asia, Seismic Beauty (f.k.a. Knarsdale 21), Alliford Bay 21, Lovesick 21, Tamboz 21, Savvy Sassy 22, Blue Curl 22, and Brandy 22.

 

Mortality insurance is a very dynamic process in horse racing. The estimated value of a horse can fluctuate after each race. The Series, through its relationship with the Manager reviews policies and increases, decrease, and maintain the insurance values predicated on their estimates of value. The Company, through its Manager may choose not to insure a horse from the outset. See the “Description” of such Series herein to confirm the status of insurance as to each such Series.

 

 

See “Use of Proceeds” for each such Series for reference to inclusion of Prepaid Expenses in Operating Expenses for a Series-by-Series determination.

 

 

We anticipate that for a majority of the Offerings, we will allocate a sizable portion of such Offering to a cash reserve to be spent on Upkeep Fees which cover operating expenses related specifically to the training, upkeep and maintenance of the applicable Underlying Asset, such functions which are managed and executed by the Manager on behalf of each Series. However, if the Operating Expenses exceed the amount of revenues generated from the applicable Underlying Asset, the Manager may (a) advance or loan the amount of the Operating Expenses to such Series, on which the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, which shall not be lower than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount from future revenues generated by such Series (“Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation(s)”), and/or (b) cause additional Interests to be issued in order to cover such additional amount. In such cases, until a Series generates revenues from its interest in the applicable Underlying Asset, we expect a Series to, initially, deplete only the Upkeep Fees. We may incur Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations if the Manager pays such Operating Expenses incurred and such Operating Expenses exceed revenues and Upkeep Fees. See discussion of “Description of the Business – Operating Expenses” for additional information.

 

 

 

 9 

 

 

 

From time to time, certain Offerings will not have an allocated upfront cash reserve for Upkeep Fees as part of such Offering proceeds. Instead, the Manager or an affiliate will, in connection with such Offering, incur liabilities related to Upkeep Fees on behalf of the Series and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount only upon a sale of the Underlying Asset or a dissolution or termination of such Series and not from Distributable Cash (as defined below) from ongoing revenues generated by such Series. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in these types of Offerings, there will still exist a smaller pre-paid cash reserve for Prepaid Expenses and insurance, administrative and general Operating Expenses which is intended to cover three years of such projected Operating Expenses (excluding Upkeep Fees).

 

In addition, the Manager, in these types of Offerings, retains discretion to also (a) loan the amount of the Operating Expenses to such Series, on which the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, which shall not be lower than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and/or (b) cause additional Interests to be issued in order to cover such additional amounts.

 

Regardless of the type of Offering, an Interest Holder will be liable only to the extent of their agreed upon capital contributions and, if no such capital remains at dissolution, such Interest Holder will not be liable for the failure of a Series to repay its underlying debt or liabilities, including the Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations.

   
Further issuance of Interests: A further issuance of Interests of a Series may be made in the event the Operating Expenses of that Series exceed the income generated from its interest in the Underlying Asset and cash reserves of that particular Series. This may occur if the Company does not take out sufficient amounts under an Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation to pay such excess Operating Expenses, or the Manager does not pay such amounts without seeking reimbursement.

 

Co-Ownership Agreements; Bonuses; Kickers:

The Company, through individual Series, intends to purchase interests in racehorses. These Underlying Assets will be owned either with (1) a majority controlling interest, or (2) 100% ownership. The Series’ percentage ownership in a specific horse is determined on a series-by-series basis as described in such Series’ “Description” in this Offering Circular. For Underlying Assets not owned 100%, the Series will enter into an agreement with other owners of the Underlying Asset (“Co-Owners”) which will govern the rights of the Series vis-à-vis the other Co-Owners and the Underlying Asset (the “Co-Ownership Agreements”).

 

As an owner of a racehorse, the individual Series will receive a percentage of the purse winnings that is equal to its ownership percentage, as well as other revenue-generating events including, race Bonuses (as described below), sale of the racehorse via claiming, auction or private sale, marketing or sponsorship activities (this does not include merchandise as that is the property of the Manager) and the sale of future breeding rights less expenses and liabilities (including “Kickers” if any as described below). If the Series decides to breed the horse (rather than sell) and the breeding equity is included in the Co-Ownership Agreement (breeding equity is included in all Series that are not “Racing Leases”), then Investors will receive their pro rata share of net proceeds. Similarly, the individual Series will be responsible for the expenses of the racehorse/breeding horse at a rate equal to its ownership percentage. These expenses will often be payable directly by the Series. Copies of such Co-Ownership Agreements for each respective Series are attached as exhibits hereto and descriptions of such terms are included with each Series’ respective description herein.

   

 

 

 10 

 

 

  Certain of the Series’ Co-Ownership Agreements may include bonuses related to winning of graded stakes races in the form of promotional bonuses, (“Promotional Bonuses”), future stallion bonuses (“Future Stallion Bonuses”) or future broodmare bonuses (“Future Broodmare Bonuses,”) (collectively referred to as “Bonuses”). The Future Stallion Bonuses may be voided prior to being earned to the extent a decision is made by the Co-Owners to geld the racehorse in the discretion of the Manager or the Co-Ownership (typically due to health and safety concerns or to better maximize its racing career prospects). These Bonuses will be distributable (less expenses, reserves, etc.) as in the same manner generic race winnings as described in “Distributable Cash” below.
   
 

In addition, certain Co-Ownership Agreements may be negotiated with the original horse seller for a payment to the seller upon a horse winning certain races or awards (the “Kickers”). Kickers are contractual obligations of a Series to the original seller of a horse which could result in a payment obligation to the seller upon the happening of certain events like Grade 1 race wins. They act as a “performance bonus” and are tied to certain revenue-generating events in the life of the Series. In the event that a Co-Ownership Agreement contains a Kicker, the campaign page, which screenshots are included in each series description contained herein, will contain express descriptions of the Kicker, its terms and its impact on such Series.

 

Such Kickers are payable out of race winnings and often offset and reduce the short-term Distributable Cash of a Series. However, the upside associated with breeding equity of a horse that has hit a Kicker can significantly increase the long-term value of a Series whether upon a sale of the Underlying Asset or the future revenue generated by breeding.

 

Each Kicker can be generally seen as a contingent liability of that Series that, when triggered, becomes a liability payable by that Series prior to any distributions to that Series’ members. This is the same case as it relates to any expenses of the Series or reserves needed to be maintained for the ongoing operations of such Series. As a result of such liability, Distributable Cash (as defined below) may be considerably less than stated race winnings.

 

In any event, a Series member will be liable only to the extent of their agreed upon capital contributions and, if no such capital remains at dissolution or at the time a Kicker payment is due, such Series member will not be liable for the failure of a Series to repay its underlying debt or liabilities, including the payment of any Kickers.

Racing Leases:

As an alternative to the Co-Ownership racehorse ownership structures discussed above, which include the purchase and sale with the full ownership of a horse, for certain Series, the Company, through individual Series, may enter into lease agreements or “racing leases” which will entitle the Series to the exclusive right to “all of the racing qualities of an ownership interest in the horse” including the operation of such horse during a set racing term (typically 1 year) in exchange for an upfront lease fee. The Series’ percentage lease interest in a specific horse is determined on a series-by-series basis. This means that the Series will enter into an agreement with other owners of the Underlying Asset (“Owners”) which will govern the rights of the Series during the lease term and the operation of the Underlying Asset (the “Lease Agreement”).

 

As the lessee of a racehorse, the individual Series will receive a percentage of the purse winnings that is equal to its lessee percentage, as well as other revenue-generating events as well as marketing and advertising related revenues (excluding merchandise that is either the asset of the lessor or the manager). Similar to the Co-Ownership arrangements, the individual Series in the Lease Agreement will be responsible for the expenses of the racehorse at a rate equal to its lessee percentage. These expenses will often be payable directly by the Series. At the end of such lease term, however, the ownership rights in the horse revert back to the Owner along with the obligation to cover any future expenses associated with such horse.

 

In certain leases, in the event that the Owner intends to retire the horse and elects to terminate the Lease Agreement due to health, breeding or economic interest concerns, the pro rata portion of the lease fee remaining on the Series will be re-paid to the Series.

 

The Company’s intent with racing leases is to capture the value of the racing career of said horse without the complexities, time and expense associated with the purchase, sale or breeding of a horse outside of its useful racing life.

 

Copies of such Lease Agreements for each respective Series, and any amendments to such Lease Agreements, if applicable, are attached as exhibits hereto and descriptions of such additional terms are included with each Series’ respective description herein.

 

Distributable Cash:

“Distributable Cash” shall mean the net income (as determined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)) generated by a Series plus any change in net working capital and depreciation and amortization (and any other non-cash Operating Expenses) for such Series and less any liabilities (including contractual obligations for Kickers or Bonuses to Horse Sellers) related to its interest in the applicable Underlying Asset. The Manager may maintain Distributable Cash funds in a deposit account or an investment account for the benefit of each Series.

 

A Series will typically generate Distributable Cash from revenue-generating events of such Series. The frequency with which such event occurs, or the timing of when such revenue is actually distributed to Members, is dependent on the racing schedule of the Underlying Asset, cash reserves in such Series, ongoing contractual obligations of a Series, potential sales of the Underlying Asset, the terms of such Series’ Co-Ownership Agreement and other revenue-generating events which do not occur on a fixed or set time period (e.g. quarterly or monthly) but which will recur on an ongoing basis so long as revenue is generated.

 

 

 

 12 

 

 

Management Fee/Management Performance Bonus; Final Gross Proceeds Fee:

For previously qualified Offerings, in addition to the “Due Diligence Fee” described above, the Manager shall also receive 10% of the Gross Proceeds for that Series (including all race winnings and Final Sale Gross Proceeds) to the Manager as a Management Fee.

 

For newly added Offerings, the “Management Fee” has been combined with the “Due Diligence Fee” resulting in the “Management/Due Diligence Fee”.

 

In its place, a “Management Performance Bonus” will be in place for newly added Offerings and is limited in scope when compared with the past “Management Fee”. For the “Management Performance Bonus”, the Manager shall receive 10 % of all Gross Proceeds from stakes races only.

 

Separately, for newly added Offerings, in connection with final sales of the Underlying Asset, in addition to the Management Performance Bonus, upon the sale of an Underlying Asset, the Manager shall receive 5% of the Final Sale Gross Proceeds if the Underlying Asset has depreciated and 20% of the Final Sale Gross Proceeds if the Underlying Asset has appreciated (referred to as “Final Gross Proceeds Fee.”)

 

“Final Sale Gross Proceeds” is defined as the sum of all money generated by the sale of a horse owned by a Series, prior to any deductions that have been made or will be used for expenses. The Underlying Asset appreciation is calculated as the Gross Sale Price minus the Gross Purchase Price.

 

Distribution Rights: The Manager has sole discretion in determining what distributions of Distributable Cash, if any, are made to Interest Holders of a Series. Any Distributable Cash generated by a Series from the utilization of the Underlying Asset shall be applied by that Series in the following order of priority (after payment of liabilities, including contractual obligations under Co-Ownership Agreements, if any):

 

  · Payment of the Management Performance Bonus or Final Gross Proceeds Fee (as described above);

 

  · thereafter to create such reserves for that Series as the Manager deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to meet future Operating Expenses of that Series; and

 

  · thereafter, 100% (net of corporate income taxes applicable to a Series, if any) by way of distribution to the Interest Holders of that Series on a pro rata percentage basis.

 

 

As described above in “Operating Expenses” Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations are not payable prior to a distribution of Distributable Cash to Interest Holders of a Series. Instead, Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations are payable only upon a sale of the Underlying Asset or a dissolution or termination of such Series and not from Distributable Cash.

Timing of Distributions:

The Manager may make periodic distributions of Distributable Cash remaining to Interest Holders of a Series subject to it having the right, in its sole discretion, to withhold distributions in order to meet anticipated costs and liabilities of a Series. The Manager may change the timing of potential distributions to a Series in its sole discretion.

 

FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, A RACE WIN BY A SERIES’ RACEHORSE WILL NOT RESULT IN AN IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION OF CASH TO INTEREST HOLDERS.

 

No Trading Market:

There is currently no public trading market for our Interests, and we do not intend or expect that any such market will ever develop. If an active public trading market for our securities does not develop or is not sustained, it may be difficult or impossible for you to resell your shares at any price. Even if a public market does develop, the market price could decline below the amount you paid for your shares.

 

The Company estimates that most Series will exist for 2-6 years (the racing life cycle) and then the Underlying Asset will be sold, which will be the primary liquidity event other than Distributions on Gross Proceeds as discussed above. A sale of the Underlying Asset may occur at a lower value than when the Underlying Asset was first acquired or at a lower price than the aggregate of costs, fees and expenses used to purchase the Underlying Asset, including the repayment of the Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations described above.

 

Manager Duties: The Manager may not be liable to the Company, any Series or the Investors for errors in judgment or other acts or omissions not amounting to fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence, since provision has been made in the Operating Agreement for exculpation of the Manager. Therefore, Investors have a more limited right of action than they would have absent the limitation in the Operating Agreement.

 

Indemnification: To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, subject to approval of each Series Manager, all officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, employees, representatives or agents of the Manager or a Series Manager, or their respective affiliates, employees or agents (each, a “Covered Person”) shall be entitled to indemnification from such Series (and the Company generally) for any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Series Manager, or such Series and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by this Agreement and any Series Agreement, except that no Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified for any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of fraud, deceit, gross negligence, willful misconduct or a wrongful taking with respect to such acts or omissions; provided, however, that any indemnity under the Operating Agreement shall be provided out of and to the extent of the assets of the such Series only, and no other Covered Person or any other Series or the Company shall have any liability on account thereof.

 

  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, subject to approval of a Series Manager, all expenses (including legal fees) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by such Series prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by such Series of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in the Operating Agreement.

Transfers: The Manager may refuse a transfer by an Interest Holder of its Interest(s) if such transfer would result in (a) the assets of a Series being deemed “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA, (b) result in a change of U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Company and/or a Series, or (c) the Company, a Series or the Manager being subject to additional regulatory requirements. Furthermore, as the Interests are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), transfers of Interests may only be affected pursuant to exemptions under the Securities Act and permitted by applicable state securities laws and there is a right of first refusal on transfers of Interests. See “Description of Interests Offered – Limitations on Transferability” for more information.

 

Where to Buy; Transfer Agent: Series Interests will be available for purchase exclusively on the MyRacehorse™ Platform. These Series Interests will be issued in book-entry electronic form only. Vertalo, Inc. is the SEC-registered transfer agent and registrar for the Series Interests. See that certain Vertalo Subscription Agreement attached hereto and incorporated by reference as Exhibit 6.3.
   
Governing law: The Company and the Operating Agreement will be governed by Nevada law and any dispute in relation to the Company and the Operating Agreement is subject to the dispute resolution provisions set forth therein. If an Interest Holder were to bring a claim against the Company or the Manager pursuant to the Operating Agreement, it would be required to do so in compliance with these dispute resolution provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, mandatory arbitration provisions set forth therein do not apply to claims made under the federal securities laws.

RISK FACTORS

 

The Interests offered hereby are highly speculative in nature, involve a high degree of risk and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment. There can be no assurance that the Company’s investment objectives will be achieved or that a secondary market would ever develop for the Interests, whether via the MyRacehorse™ Platform, via third party registered broker-dealers or otherwise. The risks described in this section should not be considered an exhaustive list of the risks that prospective Investors should consider before investing in the Interests. Prospective Investors should obtain their own legal and tax advice prior to making an investment in the Interests and should be aware that an investment in the Interests may be exposed to other risks of an exceptional nature from time to time. The following considerations are among those that should be carefully evaluated before making an investment in the Interests.

 

Risks relating to the structure, operation and performance of the Company

 

An investment in our Interests is a speculative investment and, therefore, no assurance can be given that you will realize your investment objectives.

 

No assurance can be given that Investors will realize a return on their investments on their Interests or that they will not lose their entire investment in their Interests. For this reason, each prospective subscriber for the Interests should carefully read this Offering Circular. All such persons or entities should consult with their legal and financial advisors prior to making an investment in the Interests.

 

An investment in an Offering constitutes only an investment in that Series and not in the Company, any other Series or the Underlying Asset.

 

A purchase of Interests in a Series does not constitute an investment in the Company, any other Series of the Company, or the Underlying Asset directly. This results in limited voting rights of the Investor, which are solely related to such Series. Investors will have voting rights only with respect to certain matters, primarily relating to the removal of the Manager for “cause.” The Manager thus retains significant control over the management of the Company and the Underlying Asset. Furthermore, because the Interests in a Series do not constitute an investment in the Company as a whole, holders of the Interests in the Series will not receive any economic benefit from, or be subject to the liabilities of, the assets of any other Series. In addition, the economic interest of a holder in a Series will not be identical to owning a direct undivided interest in the applicable Underlying Asset because, among other things, a Series may be required to pay corporate taxes before distributions are made to the holders, and the Manager will receive a fee in respect of its management of the applicable Underlying Asset.

 

There is no public trading market for our securities.

 

There is currently no public trading market for any of our Interests, and we do not intend or expect that any such market will ever develop. If an active public trading market for our securities does not develop or is not sustained, it may be difficult or impossible for you to resell your Interests at any price. Even if a public market does develop, the market price could decline below the amount you paid for your Interests.

 

There may be state law restrictions on an Investor’s ability to sell the Interests.

 

Each state has its own securities laws, often called “blue sky” laws, which (1) limit sales of securities to a state’s residents unless the securities are registered in that state or qualify for an exemption from registration and (2) govern the reporting requirements for broker-dealers and stockbrokers doing business directly or indirectly in the state. Before a security is sold in a state, there must be a registration in place to cover the transaction, or it must be exempt from registration. We do not know whether our securities will be registered, or exempt, under the laws of any states. A determination regarding registration will be made by the broker-dealers, if any, who agree to facilitate sales of our Interests. There may be significant state blue sky law restrictions on the ability of Investors to sell, and on purchasers to buy, our Interests. Investors should consider the resale market for our securities to be limited. Investors may be unable to resell their securities, or they may be unable to resell them without the significant expense of state registration or qualification.

 

 

 

 16 

 

 

Limited operating history.

 

The Company was formed in 2016 and has a relatively limited operating history upon which prospective Investors may evaluate their performance. No guarantee can be given that the Company and any Series will achieve their investment objectives, the value of any Underlying Asset will increase or that any Underlying Asset will be successfully monetized.

 

Limited Investor appetite.

 

There can be no guarantee that the Company will reach its funding target from potential Investors with respect to any Series or future proposed Series. In the event the Company does not reach a funding target, it may not be able to achieve its investment objectives by acquiring additional interests in underlying assets through the issuance of further Series and monetizing them together with interests in such Underlying Assets to generate distributions for Investors. In addition, if the Company is unable to raise funding for additional Series, this may impact any Investors already holding interests as they will not see the benefits which arise from economies of scale following the acquisition by other Series of additional underlying assets and other monetization opportunities (e.g., Membership Experience Programs - hosting events with the race horses, winners circle access, race day privileges, group discounts on insurance, reduction in offering costs, etc.).

 

Offering amount exceeds value of Underlying Asset.

 

The size of each Offering will exceed the purchase price of such Series’ interest in the applicable Underlying Asset as at the date of such Offering (as the proceeds of each Offering in excess of the purchase price of the applicable Underlying Asset will be used to pay fees, costs and expenses incurred in making each Offering, acquiring the interest in the applicable Underlying Asset, Due Diligence Fees and Operating Expenses). If the applicable Underlying Asset had to be sold and there has not been substantial appreciation of the applicable Underlying Asset prior to such sale, there may not be sufficient proceeds from the sale of the applicable Underlying Asset to repay Investors the amount of their initial investment (after first paying off any liabilities on the horse at the time of the sale including but not limited to any outstanding Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation or Kickers or other contractual obligations in Co-Ownership Agreements) or any additional profits in excess of this amount.

 

Excess Operating Expenses

 

Operating Expenses related to a particular Series incurred post-Closing shall be the responsibility of the Series. The Company maintains a reserve for estimated Operating Expenses for the Underlying Asset, which excludes Upkeep Fees.

 

The Manager or an affiliate will incur liabilities related to Upkeep Fees on behalf of the Series and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount only upon a sale of the Underlying Asset or a dissolution or termination of such Series and not from Distributable Cash (as defined below) from ongoing revenues generated by such Series (“Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation(s)”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, there will still exist a smaller pre-paid cash reserve for Prepaid Expenses and insurance, administrative and general Operating Expenses which is intended to cover three years of such projected Operating Expenses (excluding Upkeep Fees).

 

However, if the Operating Expenses of a particular Series exceed the amount of revenues generated from the interest in the Underlying Asset of such Series, the Manager retains discretion to also (a) loan the amount of the Operating Expenses to such Series, on which the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, which shall not be lower than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and/or (b) cause additional Interests to be issued in order to cover such additional amounts.

 

If additional Interests are issued in a particular Series, this would dilute the current value of the Interests held by existing Investors and the amount of any future distributions payable to such existing Investors.

  

In any event, an Interest Holder will be liable only to the extent of their agreed upon capital contributions and, if no such capital remains at dissolution, such Interest Holder will not be liable for the failure of a Series to repay its underlying debt or liabilities, including the Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations.

 

Inability to obtain additional short-term capital may restrict future operations of the Company.

 

The Company has funded and continues to intend to fund its operations, including those of its Series with funding from this Regulation A offering campaign, Regulation D offerings, and loans from its Manager and funds from revenue producing activities, if and when such can be realized. If the Company cannot continue to secure additional short-term capital, it may cease operations.

 

 

 

 17 

 

 

Reliance on the Manager and its personnel.

 

The successful operation of the Company (and therefore, the success of the Interests) is in part dependent on the ability of the Manager to source, acquire and manage the Underlying Assets. Experiential Squared, Inc. has been in existence since June 2016 and could be considered an early-stage company with a limited operating history within the horse racing sector.

 

The success of the Company (and therefore, the Interests) will be highly dependent on the expertise and performance of the Manager and its team, its expert network and other professionals (which include third party experts) to find, acquire, manage and utilize the Underlying Assets. While the Manager has a team of employees and independent contractors with extensive experience in the equine racing world, there can be no assurance that these individuals will continue to be associated with the Manager. The loss of the services of one or more of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on the Underlying Assets and, in particular, their ongoing management and use to support the investment of the Interest Holders.

 

Furthermore, the success of the Company and the value of the Interests is dependent on there being critical mass from the market for the Interests and that the Company is able to acquire a number of underlying assets in multiple series of interests so that the Investors can benefit from economies of scale which arise from holding more than one Underlying Assets (e.g., a reduction in offering costs if a large number of Underlying Assets are listed on subsequent offering circulars at the same time). In the event that the Company is unable to source additional Underlying Assets due to, for example, competition for such Underlying Assets or lack of Underlying Assets available in the marketplace, then this could materially impact the success of the Company and its objectives of acquiring additional Underlying Assets through the issuance of further series of interests and monetizing them together with the Underlying Assets at the Membership Experience Programs to generate distributions for Investors.

 

Liability of Investors between series of interests.

 

The Company is structured as a Nevada series limited liability company that issues a separate series of interests for each Underlying Asset. Each Series will merely be a separate series and not a separate legal entity. Under the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”), if certain conditions (as set forth in NRS Section 86.296(3)) are met, the liability of Investors holding one series of interests is segregated from the liability of Investors holding another series of interests and the assets of one series of interests are not available to satisfy the liabilities of other series of interests. Although this limitation of liability is recognized by the courts of Nevada, there is no guarantee that if challenged in the courts of another U.S. State or a foreign jurisdiction, such courts will uphold a similar interpretation of Nevada corporation law, and in the past certain jurisdictions have not honored such interpretation. If the Company’s series limited liability company structure is not respected, then Investors may have to share any liabilities of the Company with all Investors and not just those who hold the same series of interests as them. Furthermore, while we intend to maintain separate and distinct records for each series of interests and account for them separately and otherwise meet the requirements of the NRS, it is possible a court could conclude that the methods used did not satisfy Section 86.296(3) of the NRS and thus potentially expose the assets of such Series to the liabilities of another Series. The consequence of this is that Investors may have to bear higher than anticipated expenses which would adversely affect the value of their Interests or the likelihood of any distributions being made by a particular Series to its Investors. In addition, we are not aware of any court case that has tested the limitations on inter-series liability provided by Section 86.296(3) in federal bankruptcy courts and it is possible that a bankruptcy court could determine that the assets of one series of interests should be applied to meet the liabilities of the other series of interests or the liabilities of the Company generally where the assets of such other series of interests or of the Company generally are insufficient to meet our liabilities.

 

If any fees, costs and expenses of the Company are not allocable to a specific Series, they will be borne proportionately across all of the Series (which may include future Series and Interests yet to be issued). Although the Manager will allocate fees, costs and expenses acting reasonably and in accordance with its sole discretion, there may be situations where it is difficult to allocate fees, costs and expenses to a specific series of interests and therefore, there is a risk that a series of interests may bear a proportion of the fees, costs and expenses for a service or product for which another series of interests received a disproportionately high benefit.

Potential breach of the security measures of the MyRacehorse™ Platform.

 

The highly automated nature of the MyRacehorse™ Platform through which potential Investors may acquire interests may make it an attractive target and potentially vulnerable to cyber-attacks, computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins or similar disruptions. The MyRacehorse™ Platform processes certain confidential information about Investors, the Horse Sellers and the underlying assets. While we intend to take commercially reasonable measures to protect the confidential information and maintain appropriate cybersecurity, the security measures of the MyRacehorse™ Platform, the Company, the Manager or the Company’s service providers (including Dalmore) could be breached. Any accidental or willful security breaches or other unauthorized access to the MyRacehorse™ Platform could cause confidential information to be stolen and used for criminal purposes or have other harmful effects. Security breaches or unauthorized access to confidential information could also expose the Company to liability related to the loss of the information, time-consuming and expensive litigation and negative publicity, or loss of the proprietary nature of the Manager’s and the Company’s trade secrets. If security measures are breached because of third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, or if design flaws in the MyRacehorse™ Platform software are exposed and exploited, the relationships between the Company, Investors, users and the Horse Sellers could be severely damaged, and the Company or the Manager could incur significant liability or have their attention significantly diverted from utilization of the underlying assets, which could have a material negative impact on the value of interests or the potential for distributions to be made on the interests.

 

Because techniques used to sabotage or obtain unauthorized access to systems change frequently and generally are not recognized until they are launched against a target, the Company, and other third-party service providers may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. In addition, federal regulators and many federal and state laws and regulations require companies to notify individuals of data security breaches involving their personal data. These mandatory disclosures regarding a security breach are costly to implement and often lead to widespread negative publicity, which may cause Investors, the Horse Sellers or service providers within the industry, including insurance companies, to lose confidence in the effectiveness of the secure nature of the MyRacehorse™ Platform. Any security breach, whether actual or perceived, would harm the reputation of the Company and the MyRacehorse™ Platform and the Company could lose Investors and the Horse Sellers. This would impair the ability of the Company to achieve its objectives of acquiring additional underlying assets through the issuance of further series of interests and monetizing them together with the Underlying Asset at the Membership Experience Programs.

 

The novel coronavirus could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows or liquidity.

 

The outbreak of a novel coronavirus (which causes the disease now known as COVID-19), was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, and has since spread globally. COVID-19, subsequent mutations of the virus and any similar or dissimilar virus or disease outbreak may have a large range of negative effects on us. For example, the implementation of business continuity plans in a fast-moving public health emergency could have an adverse effect on our internal controls (potentially giving rise to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) and also increase our vulnerability to information technology and other systems disruptions.

 

We currently are unable to predict the duration and severity of the spread of the current coronavirus or any other disease outbreak. The implications for our business and operations, our results of operations, financial condition, cash flow and liquidity, will depend on rapidly evolving developments, which are highly uncertain and will be a function of factors beyond our control, such as the speed of contagion, the implementation of effective preventative and containment measures, the development of effective medical solutions, the timing and scope of governmental restrictions on public gatherings, mobility and other activities, financial and other market reactions to the foregoing, and reactions and responses of the populace both in affected regions and regions yet to be affected. While we expect we will suffer adverse effects with any health pandemic, the more severe the outbreak and the longer it lasts, the more likely it is that the effects on us and our business will be materially adverse.

 

The Manager will have sole discretion to determine whether and when an Investor will receive distributions of Distributable Cash, and the amounts distributed.

 

The Manager will have sole discretion in determining what distributions of Distributable Cash, if any, are available to the Interest Holders of a Series once Distributable Cash is generated by a Series from the utilization of the Underlying Asset, but only after the Manager has reserved amounts reasonably believed to adequately meet any future contemplated obligations or contingencies, in the manner and priority as further described in this Offering Circular. As revenue generated by a Series from the utilization of the Underlying Asset is intermittent and highly unpredictable, and therefore, planning for a Series’ future cash needs will require the Manager to exercise substantial judgment as to the amounts of Distributable Cash reasonably available at any time for distribution to the Interest Holders. Investors should not expect to receive distributions regularly, if at all, and should understand that any investment in the Interest for each respective Series involves a high degree of risk, including the possibility that each Investor may not realize a return on the Investor’s investment, or that the Investor’s investment could lose some or all its value. For these reasons, distribution rights and distributions of Distributable Cash may be significantly limited.

Risks relating to the Offerings

 

We are offering our Interests pursuant to recent amendments to Regulation A promulgated pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to Tier 2 issuers will make our Interests less attractive to Investors.

 

As a Tier 2 issuer, we will be subject to scaled disclosure and reporting requirements which may make an investment in our Interests less attractive to Investors who are accustomed to enhanced disclosure and more frequent financial reporting. In addition, given the relative lack of regulatory precedent regarding the recent amendments to Regulation A, there is a significant amount of regulatory uncertainty in regard to how the Commission or the individual state securities regulators will regulate both the offer and sale of our securities, as well as any ongoing compliance that we may be subject to. If our scaled disclosure and reporting requirements, or regulatory uncertainty regarding Regulation A, reduces the attractiveness of the Interests, we may be unable to raise the funds necessary to fund future Offerings, which could impair our ability to develop a diversified portfolio of racehorses and create economies of scale, which may adversely affect the value of the Interests or the ability to make distributions to Investors.

 

There may be deficiencies with our internal controls that require improvements, and if we are unable to adequately evaluate internal controls, we may be subject to penalties.

 

As a Tier 2 issuer, we will not need to provide a report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, and we will be exempt from the auditor attestation requirements concerning any such report so long as we are a Tier 2 issuer. We are in the process of evaluating whether our internal control procedures are effective and therefore there is a greater likelihood of undiscovered errors in our internal controls or reported financial statements as compared to issuers that have conducted such evaluations.

 

Impact of non-compliance with regulations.

 

As of September 3, 2020, the Interests are being sold through Dalmore, which will act as the broker/dealer of record and is a registered broker/dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Member FINRA/SIPC. Interests will be registered in each state where the Offering and sale of such Interests will occur prior to the launch of such Offering. In addition, if the Manager is required to register as a ‘broker-dealer’, there is a risk that any Series of Interests offered and sold while the Manager was not registered may be subject to a right of rescission, which may result in the early termination of the Series of Interests.

 

Furthermore, the Company is not registered and will not be registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), and the Manager is not registered and will not be registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Advisers Act”), and thus the Interests do not have the benefit of the protections of the Investment Company Act or the Investment Advisers Act. The Company and the Manager have taken the position that the underlying assets are not “investment securities” within the meaning of the of the Investment Company Act or the Investment Advisers Act. Further, the Company, any Series, the Manager, and/or any of their respective affiliates intend that no Series will hold underlying assets in which the Manager has limited or no management control, so that it is not considered to be an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act. These positions, however, are based upon applicable case law that is inherently subject to judgments and interpretation.  If the Company were to be required to register under the Investment Company Act or the Manager were to be required to register under the Investment Advisers Act, it could have a material and adverse impact on the results of operations and expenses of each Series and the Manager may be forced to liquidate and wind up each Series or rescind the Offerings for any of the Series or the offering for any other series of interests.

 

Possible Changes in Federal Tax Laws.

 

The Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) is subject to change by Congress, and interpretations of the Code may be modified or affected by judicial decisions, by the Treasury Department through changes in regulations and by the Internal Revenue Service through its audit policy, announcements, and published and private rulings. Although significant changes to the tax laws historically have been given prospective application, no assurance can be given that any changes made in the tax law affecting the Company, a series, or an investment in any series of interest of the Company would be limited to prospective effect. Accordingly, the ultimate effect on an Investor’s tax situation may be governed by laws, regulations or interpretations of laws or regulations which have not yet been proposed, passed or made, as the case may be.

 

 

 

 20 

 

 

We have elected to delay compliance with certain new or revised financial accounting standards.

 

We have elected to delay compliance with the new revenue recognition accounting standard, ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which took effect on January 1, 2018 until the date that a company that is not an issuer (as defined under section 2(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (15 U.S.C. 7201(a)) is required to comply with such new or revised accounting standard, if such standard also applies to companies that are not issuers. Management does not believe the provisions of ASC Topic 606 will have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations, but some Investors may view this as a lack of access to certain information they may deem important.

 

Risks relating to the Horse Racing industry

 

There can be no assurances that the value of the racehorse which is owned by the Series will not decrease in the future which may have an adverse impact on the Company’s or an Individual Series’ activities and financial position.

 

The business of owning, training and racing horses is a high-risk venture. There is no assurance that any horse and therefore any interest in such horse acquired by the Series will be successful. Horses are subject to aging, illness, injury and disease which may result in permanent or temporary retirement from racing, restrictions in racing schedules, layups, and even natural death or euthanasia of the animal. There can be no assurances that the value of the interest in such Underlying Asset which may be acquired and owned by a Series, will not decrease in the future or that a Series will not subsequently incur losses on the racing careers or sale or other disposition of any or all of the horses which such Series may acquire. No combination of management ability, experience, knowledge, care or scientific approach can avoid the inherent possibilities of loss.

  

While the Company believes that there is a market for horse breeding, training and racing, such a market is highly volatile. The horse industry is dependent upon the present and future values of horses and of the Company’s and Series’ horse(s) in particular. The Company can provide no assurance that it will be successful in its proposed activity. The expenses incurred may result in operating losses for a Series and there is no assurance that a Series will generate profits or that any revenues generated will be sufficient to offset expenses incurred or would result in a profit to a Series. As a result, it is possible that Investors will lose all or a substantial part of their investment in a Series. Additionally, there is no assurance that there will be any cash available for distribution.

 

The valuation of racehorses is a highly speculative matter and the market for racehorses is extremely volatile. If the valuation of an individual Series' horse decreases the individual Series will still be responsible for the expenses of maintaining, training and racing the horse at lower level races or smaller venues which could negatively impact the revenues from the horse.

 

The valuation of horses (particularly racehorses) is a highly speculative matter and prices fluctuated widely, particularly in recent years. The success of the Company, and each an individual Series, is dependent upon the present and future values of racehorses generally, and of the Series’ racehorses in particular, the racing industry in general, as well as the racing success of the Underlying Assets. Although the future value of horses generally cannot be predicted, it will be affected by general economic conditions such as inflation, employment, recessions, tariffs, unstable or adverse credit market conditions, other business conditions, the amount of money available for investment purposes, and the continued interest of Investors and enthusiasts in the racehorse industry. In the past, there has been growing foreign investment in certain types of racehorses, and the continued ability of foreign Investors to acquire horses is subject to change due to economic, political or regulatory conditions, if and when applicable. Possible regulatory government regulations could include the regulation of the horse racing industry (including the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act (HISA)) and pari-mutuel wagering, as first described in “Government Regulation” set forth below. The value of racehorses is also subject to federal income tax treatment of racing and related activities, the continuation or expansion of legalized gambling and the size of racing purses, all which cannot be predicted. The expense of maintaining, boarding, training and racing horses can be expected to increase during the term of a Series or the Company, regardless of what happens to the future market price of racehorses or the performance of the Series’ racehorse(s). Further, there is always a risk of liability for damages caused by the Underlying Assets to other persons or property.

 

 

 

 21 

 

 

The cost of racing is unpredictable and speculative and may negatively impact the Company’s and each individual Series’ ability to generate revenue.

 

Operation costs, labor rates and other variable costs, such as costs of feed and grain and costs of transporting animals are all subject to inflationary pressures and may increase over time to an extent which may not be matched by increases in revenue. To date, in the current high inflation market, the Company has seen some slight increases in training and care costs, which may result in the Company requiring an increase in the amount of cash its reserves for future Operating Expenses. Such inflationary pressures have not currently resulted in a material impact to the Company’s operations or the reserves the Company holds for existing Series. The racehorse industry, like other industries, is subject to labor disputes, labor shortages, and government intervention, changes in laws, licensing or regulatory restrictions may adversely impact the availability of grooms, trainers, jockeys and other horse industry workers. Adverse weather, disease, war and economic conditions may result in unforeseen circumstances including, without limitation, restrictions on attendance at a particular race or racetrack, ability to transport the horses, and increases in costs or decreases in revenues. Changes in government regulations, whether or not relating to the horse racing industry, may result in additional expenses or reduced revenue from operations.

 

If a horse is unsuccessful in racing, becomes sick or injured, the Underlying Asset’s value will be adversely affected which may have a negative impact on the Company's and such individual Series' valuation and its revenue. 

 

Horse racing is extremely speculative and expensive. Horses often must be transported to various tracks and training centers throughout the United States and are exposed to dangers inherent in travel and training including illness, injury or death. A horse in which a Series has an interest attempts to earn enough through racing to cover expenses of boarding and training. If a horse in which a Series has an interest is unsuccessful in racing, its value will be adversely affected. Furthermore, revenues from racing are dependent upon the size of the purses offered. The size of the purses depends in general on the extent of public interest in horse racing, and in particular on the relative quality of the specific horses in contention in any specific meeting or race. Although public interest has been strong in recent years, there is no assurance that public interest will remain constant, much less increase. Legalized gambling proliferating in many states threatens to curtail interest in horse racing as a means of recreation. In addition, there is no assurance that the horse in which a Series has an interest will be of such quality that they may compete in any races which offer purses of a size sufficient to cover such Series' expenses.

 

Horse racing could be subjected to restrictive regulation or banned entirely which could adversely affect the conduct of the Company's business.

 

The racing future of and/or market for the horses in which the Company and/or a Series' has an interest depends upon continuing governmental acceptance of horse racing as a form of legalized gambling. Although horse racing has a long history of acceptance in the United States and as a source of revenue, at any time, horse racing could be subjected to restrictive regulation or banned entirely. The value of the interest in an Underlying Asset would be substantially diminished by any such regulation or ban. Horse racing is regulated in various states and foreign countries by racing regulatory bodies which oversee the conduct of racing as well as the licensing of owners, trainers and others. Further, other forms of gambling are being approved throughout the United States and therefore no assurance can be provided that the legalization of other forms of gambling and competition from non-gambling sports and other activities will not adversely affect attendance and participation, and therefore the profitability of horse racing and sales. Lastly, our ownership structure is novel and may require us to seek regulatory approval to race in certain jurisdictions.

The Series may not purchase insurance on its horse which could require Series resources to be spent to cover any loses from the death or injury of a horse.

 

The decision to purchase insurance on a horse is made on a horse-by-horse basis. There is no guarantee that a horse owned by a Series will be insured. Mortality insurance provides coverage in many instances where a horse dies or must be humanely euthanized. Loss of use insurance covers yearlings and horses of racing age that have not yet been put into training. Loss of use insurance is generally intended to cover up to 60% of the horse’s fair market value or 60% of the insured value (whichever is less) if the horse is permanently incapable of racing due to an injury, illness or disease. Liability insurance covers the risk that the horse in which the Series has an interest causes death, injury or damage to persons or property. Without insurance, an individual Series is responsible for any costs or depreciation in value related to the injury, illness, disability or death of the horse. The death of a horse could mean the individual Series will be left with no asset. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial position. See Series descriptions as to whether insurance has or has not been purchased related to your Interests. All insurance coverages described above are subject to the individual terms, conditions and exclusions of the relevant insurance policies in place at the time. The descriptions of insurance above are for general explanation only and the nature and extent of coverage is always dependent on the language of the relevant insurance policy.

 

A decrease in average attendance per racing date coupled with increasing costs could jeopardize the continued existence of certain racetracks which could negatively impact the Company's operations.

 

A decrease in average attendance per racing date coupled with increasing costs could jeopardize the continued existence of certain racetracks which could impact the availability of race tracks available for horses in which the Company or a Series has an interest to race at and then negativity impact its operations.

 

Industry practices and structures have developed which may not be attributable solely to profit-maximizing, economic decision-making which may have an adverse impact on our Company's activities business. 

 

Because horse racing is a sport as well as a business, industry practices and structures have developed which not be attributable solely to profit-maximizing, economic decision-making. For instance, a particular bloodline could command substantial prices owing principally to the interest of a small group of individuals having particular goals unrelated to economics. A decline in this interest could be expected to adversely affect the value of the bloodline.

 

Market shortages may impact the ability of the Series to generate revenue.

 

The Company, through its individual Series, will primarily engage in horse racing in the United States. The future success of these activities will depend upon the ability of the Manager to purchase an interest in high-quality horses through an individual Series. The future success of these activities also depends upon whether the horse is being handled by highly skilled trainers and ridden by highly skilled jockeys. Because horse racing is an intensely competitive activity and the Manager for the Company could be competing with individuals who have greater influence and/or financial resources than the Manager or the Company to purchase interests in the best racehorses, there can be no assurance that the Manager or the Company will be successful in the endeavors of pursuing certain racehorses for any Series.

  

The Company, via an individual Series, has no intention of paying dividend payments on a regular schedule as revenues are irregular, seasonal, and unpredictable.

 

The revenues, if any, of an individual Series may be highly irregular and seasonal. While the Manager will endeavor to sell horses or interests in horses for cash at the time of sale, there can be no assurance that other payment terms will not be required by the relevant market conditions. The consequent variance in the amount or the timing of a Series’ dividends, if any, could pose particular risks for Investors who seek to transfer their Interests during the term of the Series.

Competitive interests and other factors can have unforeseen consequences.

 

The horseracing industry is highly competitive and speculative. Horseracing in the United States and in foreign countries draws competitors and participants from locations throughout the United States and overseas, who have been in the business of horseracing for many years and have greater financial resources than the Company. The Company will be competing in its racing and selling activities with such persons. Similarly, horse markets are international, and auctions are frequently internationally advertised. This can be favorable in that it increases the value of Underlying Assets but, by the same token, Company or Company’s Manager may not be able to compete with such competitors in the acquisition of interests in horses. The Company will be competing in the purchase and sale of horses with most of the major horse breeders and dealers in the United States and foreign countries. Thus, prices at which the Company buys or sells its interests in the Underlying Assets may vary dramatically. Market factors, which are beyond the Company’s control, will greatly affect the profitability of the Company. Such factors include, but are not limited to, auction prices, private sales, foreign Investors, federal income tax treatment of the racing industry and the size of racing purses. Further, the Company and the concept of crowdfunding in the racehorse industry is a new venture and thus the risk of unforeseen issues and problems is high.

 

There is a lack of financial forecasts for the Company and for individual Series.

 

While the Company believes that there is a market for racehorse breeding, training and racing, such a market is highly volatile. The racehorse industry is dependent upon the present and future values of racehorses and of the horses in which the Company or a Series invested in particular. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its proposed activity. The expenses incurred may result in operating losses for a Series and there is no assurance that a Series will generate profits or that any revenues generated will be sufficient to offset expenses incurred or would result in a profit to the Series. As a result, it is possible that the Investors will lose all or a substantial part of their investment in the Series. Additionally, there is no assurance that there will be any cash available for dividends. In addition, dividends, if any, may be less than their distributive share of taxable income and the Investors’ tax liability could require out-of-pocket expenditures by the Investors.

 

Lack of Diversification.

 

It is not anticipated that each Series would own any assets other than its interest in such Underlying Asset, plus potential cash reserves for maintenance, training, insurance and other Upkeep Fees pertaining to its interest in such Underlying Asset and amounts earned by such Series from the monetization of its interest in such Underlying Asset. Investors looking for diversification will have to create their own diversified portfolio by investing in other opportunities in addition to such Series.

 

Risks Related to Ownership of our Interests

 

You will have only limited voting rights regarding our management and it will be difficult to remove our Manager, therefore, you will not have the ability to actively influence the day-to-day management of our business and affairs.

 

Our Manager has sole power and authority over the management of our Company and the individual Series. Furthermore, our Manager may only be removed for “Good Cause” meaning fraud, deceit, gross negligence, willful misconduct or a wrongful taking, bad faith, death, disability or disappearance, etc.

 

To remove the Manager from an individual Series for “Good Cause”, Members holding in excess of 75% of the percentage interests, must approve. Therefore, you will not have an active role in our Company’s management and it would likely be difficult to cause a change in our management. As a result, you will not have the ability to alter our management’s path if you feel they have erred.

 

 

 

 24 

 

 

Lack of voting rights.

 

The Manager has a unilateral ability to amend the Operating Agreement in certain circumstances without the consent of the Investors, and the Investors only have limited voting rights in respect of a Series. Investors will therefore be subject to any amendments the Manager makes (if any) to the Operating Agreement and also any decision it takes in respect of the Company and the applicable Series, which the Investors do not get a right to vote upon. Investors may not necessarily agree with such amendments or decisions and such amendments or decisions may not be in the best interests of all of the Investors as a whole but only a limited number.

 

Furthermore, the Manager can only be removed as manager of the Company or one of the Series in very limited circumstances. Investors would therefore not be able to remove the Manager merely because they did not agree, for example, with how the Manager was operating an underlying asset.

 

The offering price for the Interests determined by us may not necessarily bear any relationship to established valuation criteria such as earnings, book value or assets that may be agreed to between purchasers and sellers in private transactions or that may prevail in the market if and when our Interests can be traded publicly.

 

The price of the Interests was derived as a result of our negotiations with Horse Sellers based upon various factors including prevailing market conditions, our future prospects and our capital structure, as well as certain expenses incurred in connection with the Offerings and the acquisition of interests in each Underlying Asset. These prices do not necessarily accurately reflect the actual value of the Interests or the price that may be realized upon disposition of the Interests.

 

Funds from purchasers accompanying subscriptions for the Interests will not accrue interest prior to admission of the subscriber as an Investor in the Series, if it occurs, in respect of such subscriptions.

 

The funds paid by purchasers for the Interests will go into the Company’s general operating account and be allocated to the specific Series which is subject of the investment. Investors will not have the use of such funds or receive interest thereon pending the completion of said Offering. No subscriptions will be accepted and Interests sold unless valid subscriptions for such Offering are received and accepted prior to the termination of the Offering Period. If we terminate an Offering prior to accepting a subscriber’s subscription, funds will be returned, without interest or deduction, to the proposed Investor.

 

The Company’s Operating Agreement contains mandatory arbitration provisions that restrict your ability to bring claims against the company, except in instances of claims related to Federal and State securities laws.

 

Investors will be obligated to submit any claims against the Company to arbitration, except in instances of claims related to Federal and State securities laws. Investors will be limited in the location, venue and circumstances under which a claim for damages can be brought against the Company or its officer, directors, managers or related parties. This limitation reduces the ability of Investors to dispute or fight against decisions made by the Company or its managers which may be viewed as having a negative impact on the value of your underlying investment.

POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

 

We have identified the following conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with the Interests, in particular, in relation to the Company, the Manager, the Manager’s majority stockholder and the Underlying Assets. The conflicts of interest described in this section should not be considered as an exhaustive list of the conflicts of interest that prospective Investors should consider before investing in the Interests.

 

Manager’s Fees and Compensation

 

None of the compensation set forth under the "Compensation" section was determined by arms' length negotiations. It is anticipated that the income received by the Manager may be higher or lower depending upon market conditions. This conflict of interest related to Manager fees and compensation will exist between Manager and Investors and Investors must rely upon the duties of the Manager of good faith and fair dealing to protect their interests, as qualified by the Operating Agreement.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager derives its fee structure using a cost based pricing model, testing it against traditional horseracing syndicates, other alternative asset classes and different means of operations, including the use of outsourced tax and accounting service providers. However, we can appreciate that there are very few thoroughbred managers that specialize in hyper fractional ownership and it is difficult to ascertain if our pricing models are truly competitive (including, the cost in hiring a suite of specialized experts across bloodstock acquisition, racehorse management, financial services, marketing, event management, and content creation, the inherent risks as the Manager in acquiring an asset that cannot be syndicated until it achieves qualification by the Commission and the risk of carrying livestock as an asset class that carries risks of injury and/or mortality). As a result, this is why we caution investors that such compensation is not determined in arms’ length negotiations and is an inherent risk of investment.

 

The Manager has the right to retain the services of other firms, in addition to or in lieu of the Manager, to perform various services, asset management and other activities in connection with the business that is described in this Offering Circular.

 

The Company converted an advance from founders outstanding as of December 31, 2017, to equity in the Company to ease the cash flow burden to the Company. The Company also has borrowed $2,243,920 (excluding accrued interest) from the Manager in order to acquire the Underlying Assets prior to establishing and issuing securities in the underlying series holding the horse assets for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Because these are related party transactions, no guarantee can be made that the terms of the arrangements are at arm’s length.

 

The Manager does not have a fiduciary duty or obligation to present any business opportunities to the Company or Investors. Instead, the Manager is permitted to conduct or be involved in business opportunities with or without notice to the Company or its Investors.

 

Upkeep Fee Liabilities; Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations; Manager Loans

 

The Manager or an affiliate will incur liabilities related to Upkeep Fees on behalf of the Series and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount only upon a sale of the Underlying Asset or a dissolution or termination of such Series and not from Distributable Cash from ongoing revenues generated by such Series (“Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation(s)”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, there will still exist a smaller pre-paid cash reserve for Prepaid Expenses and insurance, administrative and general Operating Expenses which is intended to cover three years of such projected Operating Expenses (excluding Upkeep Fees).

 

In addition, the Manager retains discretion to also (a) loan the amount of the Operating Expenses to such Series, on which the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, which shall not be lower than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and/or (b) cause additional Interests to be issued in order to cover such additional amounts.

 

An Interest Holder will be liable only to the extent of their agreed upon capital contributions and, if no such capital remains at dissolution, such Interest Holder will not be liable for the failure of a Series to repay its underlying debt or liabilities, including the Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations.

  

 

 

 26 

 

 

Other Series or Businesses

 

The Manager may engage for its own account, or for the account of others, in other business ventures, similar to that of the Company or otherwise, and neither the Company nor any Investor shall be entitled to any interest therein.

 

The Company will not have independent management and it will rely on the Manager for the operation of the Company. The Manager will devote only so much time to the business of the Company as is reasonably required. The Manager could have conflicts of interest in allocating management time, services and functions between its existing business interests other than the Company and any future entities which it may organize as well as other business ventures in which it may be involved. The Manager believes it has sufficient staff available to be fully capable of discharging its responsibilities to all such entities.

 

The Manager, acting in the same capacities for other Investors, companies, partnerships or entities, may result in competition with individual Series, including other Series. There are no restrictions on the Manager, or any of its affiliates, against operating other businesses in such competition with the Company. If the Manager or any of its affiliates did operate such a business that competed for clients with the Company, it could substantially impair the Company's financial results.

 

Manager Affiliation with Majority Owners

 

The Manager may independently determine to invest in syndicates that own majority interests in certain assets owned by individual Series. The Manager may derive compensation from its membership in these syndicates in addition to any compensation earned as a Manager of an individual Series.

 

Animal Welfare Obligations

 

The Manager is responsible and equipped to manage the series and execute on its decisions in a manner to maximize investor returns by buying, managing and selling the Underlying Asset in an optimal manner, however the Manager is committed to maximizing the welfare of the thoroughbred and will make decisions that are always in the best interest of the welfare of the horse. This could include but is not limited to surgery and rehabilitation costs, veterinary inspections and diagnostics, spelling (breaks from racing and training that limit the ability to earn revenue), and early retirement of a horse if it is deemed in the best interest of the horse.

 

Maximization of Entertainment Value

 

The Manager is responsible and equipped to manage the series and executed on its decisions in a manner to maximize investor returns by buying, managing and selling the Underlying Asset in an optimal manner. However, as has been shown by our Investors’ interests over the past few years, the Manager is committed to maximizing the entertainment and experiential value of the Investors as well. Many Investors cite their primary reason for investing as the ability to own a racehorse and experience the journey of racehorse ownership. The Manager needs to make decisions that balance the welfare, the profit of the underlying asset and the entertainment expectations of the Series Investors.

 

An affiliate of Spendthrift Farm LLC is a Majority Stockholder in the Manager and Spendthrift is frequently a Horse Seller and Co-Owner in our Underlying Assets. Our interests in these transactions may be different from the interests of affiliates in these transactions.

 

On March 17, 2020, an affiliate of Spendthrift Farm, LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (“Spendthrift”), became a majority stockholder in Experiential Squared, Inc., the Manager of the Company. In or about February 2023, Spendthrift sold its ownership interest in the Manager to the existing stockholders of the Manager. Spendthrift is also a Horse Seller and Co-Owner with the Company in several of the Underlying Assets of existing Series and will continue to hold those positions in future Series. As such, the Company recognizes that there may be a heightened risk of conflicts of interest representing our interests in these transactions on the one hand and the interests of the Manager and its affiliates in preserving or furthering their respective relationships on the other hand and/or proper valuation of certain transactions (or the perception thereof). The Manager and the Company, in determining whether to approve or authorize a particular transaction with Spendthrift, will consider whether the transaction between the Company and Spendthrift is fair and reasonable to the Company and has terms and conditions no less favorable to us than those available from unaffiliated third parties.

 

 

 

 27 

 

 

Lack of Independent Legal Representation

 

The Members have not been separately represented by independent legal counsel in connection with the Company’s organization or in their dealings with the Manager. The Investors must rely on the good faith and integrity of the Manager to act in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Offering. The terms of the management of the business and the Operating Agreement have all been prepared by the Company. Therefore, the terms of these agreements have not been negotiated in an arms' length transaction, and there is no assurance that the Company could not have obtained more favorable terms from a third party for any of these agreements. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS MUST RELY ON THEIR OWN LEGAL COUNSEL FOR LEGAL ADVICE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS INVESTMENT.

 

We do not have a conflicts of interest policy.

 

The Company, the Manager and their affiliates will try to balance the Company’s interests with their own. However, to the extent that such parties take actions that are more favorable to other entities than the Company, these actions could have a negative impact on the Company’s financial performance and, consequently, on distributions to Investors and the value of the Interests. The Company has not adopted, and does not intend to adopt in the future, either a conflicts of interest policy or a conflicts resolution policy.

 

 

DILUTION

 

Dilution means a reduction in value, control or earnings of the Interests the Investor owns. There will be no dilution to any Investors associated with any Offering. However, from time to time, additional Series Interests may be issued in order to raise capital to cover the applicable Series’ ongoing operating expenses. See “Description of the Business – Operating Expenses” for further details.

The purchase price of Series Brandy 22 includes reserves for Operating Expenses through September 2025.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION AND SUBSCRIPTION PROCEDURE

 

Plan of distribution

 

We are managed by Experiential Squared, Inc. (“Experiential” or the “Manager”), a Delaware corporation incorporated in 2016. Experiential owns and operates a mobile app-based crowd-funding investment platform called MyRacehorse™ (the MyRacehorse™ platform and any successor platform used by the Company for the offer and sale of interests, the “MyRacehorse™ Platform”), which is licensed to the Company via the Management Agreement, through which Investors may indirectly invest, through Series of the Company’s interests, in fractional racehorse ownership interests that have been historically difficult to access for many market participants. Through the use of the MyRacehorse™ Platform, Investors can browse and screen the potential investments and sign legal documents electronically. We intend to distribute the Interests exclusively through the MyRacehorse™ Platform. We have engaged Dalmore, a member of FINRA/SIPC, as broker of record in connection with the offer and sale of the Interests. See “Broker” section below.

 

Each of the Offerings is being conducted under Regulation A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and therefore, only offered and sold to “qualified purchasers.” For further details on the suitability requirements an Investor must meet in order to participate in this Offering, see “Plan of Distribution and Subscription Procedure – Investor Suitability Standards”. As a Tier 2 offering pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act, this offering will be exempt from state law “Blue Sky” review, subject to meeting certain state filing requirements and complying with certain antifraud provisions, to the extent that our Interests are offered and sold only to “qualified purchasers” or at a time when our Interests are listed on a national securities exchange.

 

The initial offering price for each Series (the “Purchase Price”) was determined by the Manager and is equal to the aggregate of (i) the purchase price of the applicable Underlying Asset, (ii) the Due Diligence Fee, (iii) Offering Expenses, (iv) the Bloodstock Fee, if applicable, and (v) Operating Expenses (excluding Upkeep Fees), (in each case as described below).

 

Each Offering is being conducted on a best efforts basis without any minimum target. The Company may undertake one or more closings of each Offering on a rolling basis. After each such Closing, funds tendered by Investors will be available to the Company. Because the Offerings are being made on a best efforts basis and without a minimum offering amount, the Company may close each Offering at any level of proceeds raised. Each Offering shall be terminated on the earlier of (i) the date subscriptions for the Maximum Interests have been accepted, (ii) a date determined by the Manager in its sole discretion, or (iii) the date which is one year from the date this Offering Circular is qualified by the Commission which period may be extended by an additional six months by the Manager in its sole discretion.

 

Those persons who want to invest in the Interests must consent electronically to a Subscription Agreement, which will contain representations, warranties, covenants, and conditions customary for private placement investments in limited liability companies, see “How to Subscribe” below for further details. A copy of the form of Subscription Agreement is attached as Exhibit 4.1.

 

Each Series of Interests will be issued in book-entry form without physical stock certificates. Vertalo, Inc. will serve as transfer agent to maintain stockholder information on a book-entry basis. See “Transfer Agent” below for more information.

 

The Company will pay all of the expenses incurred in these Offerings that are not covered by the Brokerage Fee, Due Diligence Fee, the Offering Expenses or estimated Operating Expenses, including fees to legal counsel, but excluding fees for counsel or other advisors to the Investors and fees associated with the filing of periodic reports with the Commission and future blue sky filings with state securities departments, as applicable. Any Investor desiring to engage separate legal counsel or other professional advisors in connection with this Offering will be responsible for the fees and costs of such separate representation.

 

 

 

 64 

 

 

Investor Suitability Standards

 

The Interests are being offered and sold only to “qualified purchasers” (as defined in Regulation A under the Securities Act). “Qualified purchasers” include: (i) “accredited Investors” under Rule 501(a) of Regulation D and (ii) all other Investors so long as their investment in any of the interests of the Company (in connection with this Series or any other Series offered under Regulation A) does not represent more than 10% of the greater of their annual income or net worth (for natural persons), or 10% of the greater of annual revenue or net assets at fiscal year-end (for non-natural persons). We reserve the right to reject any investor’s subscription in whole or in part for any reason, including if we determine in our sole and absolute discretion that such investor is not a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Regulation A.

 

For an individual potential investor to be an “accredited investor” for purposes of satisfying one of the tests in the “qualified purchaser” definition, the investor must be a natural person who has:

 

1.             an individual net worth, or joint net worth with the person’s spouse, that exceeds $1,000,000 at the time of the purchase, excluding the value of the primary residence of such person and the mortgage on that primary residence (to the extent not underwater), but including the amount of debt that exceeds the value of that residence and including any increase in debt on that residence within the prior 60 days, other than as a result of the acquisition of that primary residence; or

 

2.              earned income exceeding $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with a spouse exceeding $300,000 for those years and a reasonable expectation of the same income level in the current year. 

 

If the investor is not a natural person, different standards apply. See Rule 501 of Regulation D for more details. For purposes of determining whether a potential investor is a “qualified purchaser,” annual income and net worth should be calculated as provided in the “accredited investor” definition under Rule 501 of Regulation D. In particular, net worth in all cases should be calculated excluding the value of an investor’s home, home furnishings and automobiles.

 

If you live outside the United States, it is your responsibility to fully observe the laws of any relevant territory or jurisdiction outside the United States in connection with any purchase, including obtaining required governmental or other consent and observing any other required legal or other formalities.

 

Our Manager and Dalmore, in its capacity of broker/dealer of record for these Offerings, will be permitted to make a determination that the subscribers of Interests in these Offerings are qualified purchasers in reliance on the information and representations provided by the subscriber regarding the subscriber’s financial situation. Before making any representation that your investment does not exceed applicable federal thresholds, we encourage you to review Rule 251(d)(2)(i)(C) of Regulation A. For general information on investing, we encourage you to refer to http://www.investor.gov.

 

An investment in our Interests may involve significant risks. Only Investors who can bear the economic risk of the investment for an indefinite period of time and the loss of their entire investment should invest in the Interests. See “Risk Factors.”

 

Minimum and Maximum Investment Amounts

 

The minimum subscription by an Investor in the Offerings is 1 Interest and the maximum subscription by any Investor in each Offering is set forth on the Cover Page hereto in tabular format.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager has discretion to increase the minimum subscription by an Investor to greater than 1 Interest in a Series.

 

 

 

 65 

 

 

Transfer Agent

 

Vertalo, Inc., a Delaware corporation, will serve as the Company’s SEC-registered transfer agent to maintain stockholder information on a book-entry basis. On November 2, 2021, we entered into that certain Vertalo Subscription Agreement to govern the relationship between Vertalo and the Company which provides, among other things, for a one-year term with auto-renewal within 60 days of year 2 of the agreement. The Company will be charged $0.75 per investor per year (regardless of number of investments a single investor makes) and no transfer fee with fees billed monthly in advance.

 

Broker

 

Dalmore Group, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“Dalmore” or “Broker”), will manage the sale of the Interests as broker/dealer of record pursuant to a broker-dealer agreement, dated July 10, 2020 (the “Broker-Dealer Agreement”), and serve as broker of record for the Company’s Regulation A offerings, process transactions by subscribers to the Offering and provide investor qualification services (e.g., Know Your Customer (“KYC”) and Anti Money Laundering (“AML”) checks). Dalmore is a broker-dealer registered with the Commission and a member of FINRA/SIPC and is registered in each state where the Offering and sale of the Series of Interest will occur, prior to the launch of such Offering, but will not act as a finder or underwriter in connection with such Offering. Dalmore will receive a Brokerage Fee but will not purchase any Interests and, therefore, will not be eligible to receive any discounts, commissions or any underwriting or finder’s fees in connection with the Offering.

 

The Company will indemnify Dalmore, its affiliates and their representatives and agents harmless from any and all actual or direct losses, liabilities, judgments, arbitration awards, settlements, damages and costs (collectively, “Losses”), resulting from or arising out of any third party suits, actions, claims, demands or similar proceedings (collectively, “Proceedings”) to the extent they are based upon (i) a breach of the Broker-Dealer Agreement by the Company, (ii) the wrongful acts or omissions of the Company, or (iii) the Offering itself. Dalmore shall indemnify and hold the Company, the Company’s affiliates and Company’s representatives and agents harmless from any Losses resulting from or arising out of Proceedings to the extent they are based upon (i) a breach of the Broker-Dealer Agreement by Dalmore or (ii) the wrongful acts or omissions of Dalmore or (iii) its failure to comply with any applicable federal, state, or local laws, regulations, or codes in the performance of its obligations under the Broker-Dealer Agreement. The Broker-Dealer Agreement terminates 6 months after its effective date, but will renew automatically for successive renewal terms of six (6) months each unless any party provides notice to the other party of non-renewal at least forty-five (45) days prior to the expiration of the current term.

 

If the Company defaults in performing the obligations under the Broker-Dealer Agreement, the Broker-Dealer Agreement may be terminated (i) upon forty-five (45) days written notice if the Company fails to perform or observe any material term, covenant or condition to be performed or observed by it under the Broker-Dealer Agreement and such failure continues to be unremedied, (ii) upon written notice, if any material representation or warranty made by either Dalmore or the Company proves to be incorrect at any time in any material respect, (iii) in order to comply with a legal requirement, if compliance cannot be timely achieved using commercially reasonable efforts, after providing as much notice as practicable, or (iv) upon thirty (30) days’ written notice if the Company or Dalmore commences a voluntary proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief, or is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or has entered against it a final and unappealable order for relief, under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or either party executes and delivers a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors.

Fees and Expenses

 

Brokerage Fee

 

As compensation for providing certain broker-dealer services to the Company in connection with the Underlying Asset, including KYC, AML and other compliance background checks, Dalmore will receive a fee equal to 1.0% of the amount raised through this Offering (which, for clarification, excludes any Interests purchased by the Manager, its affiliates or the Horse Sellers) (the “Brokerage Fee”). Each Series will be responsible for paying its own Brokerage Fee to Dalmore in connection with the sale of Interests in such Series. The Brokerage Fee will be payable immediately upon the closing of each offering from the proceeds thereof. In addition, the Company has paid Dalmore a $5,000 one-time set up fee for out-of-pocket expenses and has also paid a separate, one-time $20,000 consulting fee.

 

Management/Due Diligence Fee

 

Referred to as just the “Due Diligence Fee” for previously qualified Offerings. For newly added Offerings, the Company is combining its existing due diligence and management fee structures into a single, ongoing Management/Due Diligence Fee which will cover the Manager’s work on behalf of a Series during its lifecycle. This includes the existing Due Diligence Fee which is a fee paid to Manager as compensation for due diligence services in evaluating, investigation and discovering the Underlying Assets and establishing the Series, not to exceed the maximum Due Diligence Fee as detailed in the Use of Proceeds for each Series. This fee includes the costs associated with managing all aspects of the selection of horses and the establishment of a series. This also includes the selection, management, authority and oversight of third-party contractors such as attorneys, accountants and bloodstock agents. In addition, ongoing work for management and execution of decisions as it relates to veterinarians, co-owners, trainers, boarding facilities and review and audit of bills (from veterinarians, trainers, farriers etc.) will be covered here. The existing “Management Fee” as discussed below will be transitioned to a “Management Performance Bonus” which will only accrue in certain circumstances as described below.

 

Organizational and Experiential Fee

 

This is a new fee structure for newly added Offerings. This fee covers several organizational and experiential aspects of the business. First, any Offering Expenses associated with an offering, including actual legal, accounting, underwriting, filing and compliance costs incurred by the Company in connection with an Offering of a Series of Interests (and excludes ongoing costs described in Operating Expenses), as applicable, paid to legal advisors and other third parties, as the case may be, will be covered. Second, fees paid to the Manager for the experiential activities associated with ownership of a racehorse in a Series, including marketing costs, event planning, content development and hosting on the MyRacehorse™ Platform, and Membership Experience Programs (as discussed further in the “Description of the Business”). This fee may be discounted for certain Series or such fees could be capped for Investors with multiple or sizable Series investments (which would have the result of a discounted effective Offering Price to such frequent or large-scale Investors). Lastly, any ongoing organizational costs to cover legal and compliance expenses incurred to set up the legal and financial framework and compliance infrastructure for the marketing and sale of the Series Interests and ongoing costs for compliance, reporting and legal.

 

As discussed above, these fees were typically either offset by the Due Diligence Fee or billed to the Series as Operating Expenses previously but will now be specifically allocated to the Use of Proceeds for each newly added Series Offering.

 

To date, the Company has not directly charged Offering Expenses as part of the Offering despite reserving the right to do so. As part of the re-structuring of its fee structure, the Company plans to do so moving forward as part of this fee.

 

 

 

 67 

 

 

Operating Expenses

 

Each Series of Interests will be responsible for any and all fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the boarding, maintenance, training and transportation costs of the underlying asset (the “Upkeep Fees”) related to such Series, costs incurred in preparing any reports and accounts of the Series, including any tax filings and any annual audit of the accounts of the Series (if applicable) or costs payable to any third party registrar or transfer agent and any reports to be filed with the Commission including periodic reports on Forms 1-K, 1-SA and 1-U, any indemnification payments, any and all insurance premiums or expenses in connection with the Underlying Asset, including mortality, liability and/or medical insurance of the Underlying Asset to insure against the death, injury or third party liability of racehorse ownership (decided on a horse-by-horse basis), etc.

 

We anticipate that for a majority of the Offerings, we will allocate a sizable portion of such Offering to a cash reserve to be spent on Upkeep Fees of the applicable Underlying Asset (the “Operating Expense Reserve”). However, if the Operating Expenses exceed the amount of revenues generated from the applicable Underlying Asset, the Manager may (a) advance or loan the amount of the Operating Expenses to such Series, on which the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, which shall not be lower than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount from future revenues generated by such Series (“Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation(s)”), and/or (b) cause additional Interests to be issued in order to cover such additional amount. In such cases, until a Series generates revenues from its interest in the applicable Underlying Asset, we expect a Series to, initially, deplete only the Upkeep Fees. We may incur Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations or the Manager pays such Operating Expenses incurred and will not seek reimbursement if Operating Expenses exceed revenues and Upkeep Fees.

 

From time to time, certain Offerings will not have an allocated upfront cash reserve for Upkeep Fees as part of such Offering proceeds. Instead, the Manager or an affiliate will, in connection with such Offering, incur liabilities related to Upkeep Fees on behalf of the Series and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount only upon a sale of the Underlying Asset or a dissolution or termination of such Series and not from Distributable Cash (as defined below) from ongoing revenues generated by such Series. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in these types of Offerings, there will still exist a smaller pre-paid cash reserve for Prepaid Expenses and insurance, administrative and general Operating Expenses which is intended to cover three years of such projected Operating Expenses (excluding Upkeep Fees). In addition, the Manager, in these types of Offerings, retains discretion to also (a) loan the amount of the Operating Expenses to such Series, on which the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, which shall not be lower than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and/or (b) cause additional Interests to be issued in order to cover such additional amounts.

 

Regardless of the type of Offering, an Interest Holder will be liable only to the extent of their agreed upon capital contributions and, if no such capital remains at dissolution, such Interest Holder will not be liable for the failure of a Series to repay its underlying debt or liabilities, including the Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations.

 

Management of Operating Expenses

 

The Manager may provide monthly accounting, admin and legal services to the Series to meet the Series responsibilities for paying and auditing the Series bills, financial reporting to Series members, handling Accounts Payables for the Series and distributing payouts and tax forms.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

MyRacehorse democratizes the ownership of racehorses and allows fans to experience the thrill, perks and benefits of ownership at a fraction of the historical cost. This includes everything from the behind-the-scenes engagements with the horse, the jockey and trainers as well as exclusive on-track experiences and their pro-rata share of any financial gains that the ownership may create.

 

The Company, in collaboration with the manager, Experiential, has quickly emerged as what management believes to be one of the most successful stables in horse racing over the past several years. The Company has recorded 129 wins (out of 704 races run since operations began in 2016 and won two of the most prestigious races in the sports, the Kentucky Derby and Breeders Cup Classic (2020 – Authentic). MyRacehorse was named the 2020 “New Owner of the Year” by the New York Thoroughbred Breeders.” The award “recognizes a new Thoroughbred owner who has been successful in the sport and has had a positive impact on the industry.” This is in large part due to the depth and breadth of the racing and bloodstock team employed by Experiential. They have over 100 years combined experiences buying, selling and managing thoroughbred racehorses. The team members are extremely active in working with all stakeholders that have influences on the outcomes of the racehorse. They have unencumbered access and authority over the trainers, jockeys, racing secretaries, and veterinarians, all key stakeholders in the career of a racehorse. The manager has also built out a robust team of content developers that keeps the Investors abreast of the critical aspects of their racehorse. These updates are delivered in the form of video, text, live streams and photos through the MyRacehorse™ Platform.

 

The Company was formed in the state of Nevada as a series limited liability company on December 27, 2016. There is limited historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are an emerging growth business with limited operating history. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns, such as increases in marketing costs, increases in administration expenditures associated with daily operations, increases in accounting and audit fees, and increases in legal fees related to filings and regulatory compliance.

 

Racehorse Ownership Interests

 

The Company, through individual Series, intends to purchase interests in thoroughbred horses. The Series’ percentage ownership in a specific horse is determined on a series-by-series basis. In all Series, the Company and its Manager will maintain sufficient management, authority, control and input into the initial due diligence and subsequent day-to-day operating decisions (which may be delegated to certain trainers, stable hands, veterinarians, etc., subject to the authority of the Manager) , including training, maintenance and upkeep of an Underlying Asset in order to add value to the Series. In all Series, the Manager has authority, control and access to the key stakeholders in the day to day training of the racehorse allowing the Manager to make key decisions that include, but are not limited to, keeping a horse in tact vs gelding, running in claiming or restricted races, changing a trainer, changing a racing circuit, increasing/decreasing/maintaining the insurance policy coverage (if any) and selling/increasing ownership interests through either a partner buyout or exercising a right of first refusal.

 

As an owner of a racehorse, the individual Series will receive a percentage of the purse winnings that is equal to its ownership percentage, as well as other revenue-generating events including, but not limited to claiming races (which may result in a sale of a racehorse held by a series), sales of the racehorse, marketing or sponsorship activities and the sale of future breeding rights. A possible exemption to these entitled revenue streams would be in a Racing Lease and those exemptions would be clearly outlined on the MyRacehorse Platform offering page and the Description of such Series in this Offering Circular. Similarly, the individual Series will be responsible for the expenses of the racehorse at a rate equal to its ownership percentage. These expenses will often be payable directly by the Series pursuant to the rights of its partnership, syndicate or operating agreement (“Co-Ownership Agreements”) with other co-owners of an Underlying Asset. Copies of such Co-Ownership Agreements for each respective Series are attached as exhibits hereto and descriptions of such terms are included with each Series’ respective description herein.

 

 

 

 70 

 

 

The Co-Ownership Agreements clearly delineate the decision making and dispute resolution processes regarding the management of the horse and delegate those key authorities to the Manager. The management of the horse includes but is not limited to decisions made and executed by the Manager on the boarding, training, racing schedule, veterinary care and insurance on a horse. The Company, through the individual Series, only enters into Co-Ownership Agreements that empower the Manager to have major decision rights, authority, control and access to all key stakeholders and key information regarding the horse. The access to information and stakeholders is required to make optimal decisions surrounding the Underlying Asset in the Series. The Manager and its personnel will maintain control over key operating decisions of the Underlying Asset of such Series. The Manager intends for the Series to maintain a sufficient level of control over the Underlying Asset by (1) majority (50%+) ownership (which includes the ability to remove the administrator), (2) heavy negotiation of the Underlying Asset’s Co-Ownership Agreement to include authority, control and input on key operating decisions, discretion in payment of certain expenses and voting rights over important decisions regarding the management of the Underlying Asset, or (3) a combination of these controls.

 

When a Series becomes an owner of the horse, the Series’ Members may be able to enjoy some of the benefits and privileges of owning a horse. This includes the ability to visit the horse at the trainer’s barns, visit the paddock before any race the horse is in, interact with the jockey before the race, and have your photo taken in the winner's circle if the horse wins a race. Some of these Membership Experience Programs are included with Series membership, while others may require additional payments by Investors and would be attributable as revenue to the Company. Since the Member is not a direct owner but an indirect owner of the horse they must be accompanied by someone that is licensed by the state's racing authority. There is no guarantee that a licensed person will be available to accompany a member upon request. The benefits and privileges associated with a Member Interest are conditional upon compliance with the Manager’s and the Series’ Code of Conduct as outlined in the Terms of Service on the MyRacehorse™ Platform.

 

Racing Leases

 

As an alternative to the Co-Ownership structures discussed above, which include the purchase, sale and breeding rights associated with the full ownership of a horse, for certain Series, the Company, through individual Series, may enter into lease agreements or “racing leases” which will entitle the Series to the exclusive right to “all of the racing qualities of an ownership interest in the horse” including the operation of such horse during a set racing term (typically 1 year) in exchange for an upfront lease fee. The Series’ percentage lease interest in a specific horse is determined on a series-by-series basis. This means that the Series will enter into an agreement with other owners of the Underlying Asset (“Owners”) which will govern the rights of the Series during the lease term and the operation of the Underlying Asset (the “Lease Agreement”). As with Co-Ownership structures, the Company, directly or indirectly, is engaged daily on key operating decisions and has approval rights over a broad range of day-to-day operational matters that directly impact the value of the Lease Agreements for such Underlying Asset of a Series.

 

As the lessee of a racehorse, the individual Series will receive a percentage of the purse winnings that is equal to its lessee percentage, as well as other revenue-generating events as well as marketing and advertising related revenues. Similar to the Co-Ownership arrangements, the individual Series in the Lease Agreement will be responsible for the expenses of the racehorse at a rate equal to its lessee percentage. These expenses will often be payable directly by the Series. At the end of such lease term, however, the ownership rights in the horse revert back to the Owner along with the obligation to cover any future expenses associated with such horse.

 

In the event that the Owner intends to retire the horse and elects to terminate the Lease Agreement due to health, breeding or economic interest concerns, the pro rata portion of the lease fee remaining on the Series will be re-paid to the Series.

 

The Company’s intent with racing leases is to capture the value of the racing career of said horse without the complexities, time and expense associated with the purchase, sale or breeding of a horse outside of its useful racing life.

Size of Thoroughbred Business

 

The US Gross Domestic Product for thoroughbred racing, breeding, and related activities contributes approximately $50 billion in direct economic impact to the U.S. economy. There are an estimated 40,000 thoroughbred races each year attracting 60 million spectators and bets of more than $13 billion at the tracks and at off-site locations. 1

 

Currently, $115,000,000 billion is bet annually on horse races with the US representing about 8.5% of the total gaming market. 2 The Kentucky Derby continues setting records; in 2021 the total handle was the highest in history, with just over $233 million handled, up 11.5% from the previous record. 3 In 2015, Churchill Down set an attendance record with just over 170,000 people in attendance. 4

 

$115 billion is bet annually on horse races worldwide and there are $800 million dollars a year in racehorse sales. Approximately, 8 million fans attend races each year watching over 42,500 active racehorses. 5 The average sales price for a racehorse is about $65,000. 6

Plan of Operations

 

The Company, the Manager and/or its affiliates will either (1) acquire horses that are listed on the MyRacehorse™ Platform pursuant to a promissory note between the Series and lender or (2) have the Series acquire the horses upon close of the respective offering. In many instances, the lender will have a right, prior to completion of the Offering, to participate in pre-closing dividends from revenue generated by its interest in the Underlying Asset (via, primarily, race-winnings and the payment of Stallion Fees when applicable, that occur prior to closing such an offering) and the right to convert into the unsold portion of the offering prior to being fully funded. Copies of the respective “Profit Participation Convertible Promissory Note” for each such Series are attached as exhibits hereto.

 

An investment in a Series does not constitute ownership of a racehorse and does not necessarily make a Series member eligible for State based Horse Racing Owner License.

 

The Series will contract with Manager to provide “ownership privileges” and “ownership experiences” for Investors. Some ownership privileges are included as a member, including access to content that will vary based on majority ownership group, trainer, track, frequency of races, racing conditions, the health of the horse and other factors. Other “ownership privileges” provided by Manager will be available for purchase and can include on track events and race day privileges including paddock, backside and winners circle access.

 

For each horse acquired by each individual Series, the timeline for racing and expected cash flows may vary greatly. Different acquisitions will have different timelines depending on a variety of factors. More often than not, the Series will exist for 2-6 years (the racing life cycle) and then the Underlying Asset will be sold or retired.

Deciding on a Horse

 

When deciding on what horse to purchase, a number of considerations must be evaluated by a seasoned team of experts. The Manager employs some of the most experienced experts in bloodstock and racing and also contracts with independent consultants to maximize its ability to make optimal decisions when purchasing a racehorse:

 

  · Pedigree: The recorded ancestry of the horse.
     
  · Pedigree Statistics: Win percentages and nicking statistics.
     
  · Race history (if applicable): Historic results of past races the horse has competed in
     
  · Race Replays (if applicable): Video of the historic races.
     
  · Potential trainer: Statistics and trends of the potential trainer
     
  · Valuation: The monetary worth set by the majority owner
     
  ·

Horse Owner/Breeder/Consignor: Historical statistics and reputation

     
  · Conformation, Physical Attributes: Athletic prowess as indicated by key attributes of his/her physique
     
  · Purchase History: Publicly recorded title transfers of the horse
     
  · Workout reports and videos: Via professional clockers and internal evaluation of video footage
     
  · Bloodstock Agent Assessment (if applicable): Record and Reputation
     
  · 3rd party appraisals (If applicable): Independent bloodstock appraisal
     
  · Veterinarian Assessments (if applicable): Independent assessment of health of horse
     
  · Biometrics (if applicable): Assessment of biometric data against desired attributes

 

This initial diligence information is used to determine if the horse is one that will be added to the MyRacehorse™ Platform and then the same information is made available to the prospective Investors to assist in their individual investment decisions.

Competition

 

The Company under the advisement and stewardship of its Manager believes it is becoming one of the more prominent and successful racing stables in the United States. The Company is very dependent on the expertise of its Manager. Competition in the horse racing business is strong and a constant challenge as further outlined in the “Risk Factors” section.

 

Government Regulation

 

Horse racing is regulated by the individual states and has very few centralized governing entities.

 

The supervision and regulation of horse racing and pari-mutuel wagering are principally governed by state law, which varies from state to state. A horse racing board or commission is the state governmental authority that oversees horse racing, pari-mutuel wagering, and related activities for the purpose of, among other things, ensuring the integrity of racing within the state. In general, state racing commissions have authority to supervise and regulate the following activities associated with horse racing:

 

  The conduct of all horse racing activities at licensed racetracks within the state, including scheduling meets, setting standards for tracks and grounds, and inspecting racing facilities;
     
  The conduct of pari-mutuel wagering and the amount of purses, stakes, or awards to be offered;
     
  Licensing requirements and procedures and for participation by owners, jockeys, trainers, and others;
     
  Oversight of the health and sound racing condition of racehorses;
     
  Restricting or prohibiting the use and administration of drugs or stimulants or other improper acts to horses before participating in a race;
     
  Maintaining and operating facilities for drug testing;
     
  Establishing safety standards for jockeys and racing equipment;
     
  Setting minimum fees for jockeys to be effective in the absence of a contract between an employing owner or trainer and a jockey;
     
  Requiring racetrack operators to file financial information and a list of their stockholders or other persons holding a beneficial interest in the organization; and
     
  Enforcing statutes and regulations governing horse racing, including adjudicatory power to conduct hearings, issue subpoenas and impose penalties for violations, such as suspension or revocation of licenses, fines, and forfeiture of purses.

The National Racing Compact was created as an independent, interstate governmental entity (the Association of Racing Commissioners International), composed of pari-mutuel racing regulators from participating states, to set standards for individual licenses, accept applications and fingerprints, analyze criminal history information, and issue a national license. The national license is recognized by the 15 compact member states and nine other states that have elected to recognize the national license or the application for the license to a lesser degree.

 

The Association of Racing Commissioners International was formed in 1947 to “encourage forceful and honest nationwide control of racing for the protection of the public.” The goals of the organization are to facilitate reciprocity in enforcing each other’s official rulings (penalties) and uniform rules and practices. From the beginning, the Association has functioned as a repository and redistribution center for all official rulings by stewards and racing commissioners.

 

The Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act (HISA) was passed at the end of 2020 to create uniform national standards for Thoroughbred racing in the areas of racetrack safety and medication. The effort was prompted by growing public concern about safety of racehorses and riders resulting from an unusual spate of breakdowns at Santa Anita between July 1, 2018, and November 30, 2019, when fifty-six horses died or were euthanized because of injuries suffered at the track. Although the issue was of concern at all racetracks across the nation with similar safety records, the Santa Anita cluster of injuries and deaths galvanized the opponents to racing and the press to elevate the issue significantly. Contributing to the impetus for the legislation were several high-profile trainers involved with medication issues in stakes races of national interest (including the Kentucky Oaks, the Arkansas Derby and the Kentucky Derby) and the indictment of several east coast trainers alleged to have used and trafficked in illegal performance enhancing substances resulting from an FBI undercover operation. These events cast a shadow over racing’s reputation and were the subject of increased media scrutiny forcing industry leaders to act.26

 

HISA created the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (the “Authority”), a “private, independent, self-regulatory, nonprofit corporation” purposed to develop and implement “a horseracing anti-doping and medication control program and a racetrack safety program.…”27 Two standing committees of the Authority will prescribe rules for each of the two target areas of concern.28 The Racetrack Safety Committee will establish a horseracing safety program, while The Anti-Doping and Medication Committee will help the Authority establish a medication control policy.29 The Authority only covers Thoroughbred horses, leaving the coverage of other breeds to individual racing commissions or breed governing organizations.30

 

The Authority is charged to seek an agreement with the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) under which USADA will serve “as the anti-doping and medication control enforcement agency,” but will have no hand in prescribing drug rules.31 The Authority could not come to an agreement with USADA, but consistent with its mandate to identify and contract with an entity of comparable reputation to perform drug testing services, Drug Free Sport International was retained as the HISA drug enforcement arm. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will serve as an oversight body to the Authority and the FTC must approve all substantive and procedural rules of the Authority.32 The FTC also decides appeals from final decisions of the Authority.33

 

Two significant legal challenges 34 35 to HISA have been dismissed by the courts for various reasons, but there has been significant resistance to HISA’s implementation by several racing states, most notably Texas, which has refused to allow HISA to regulate racing within its borders, citing legal constraints by its own state racing law.36 HISA has delayed the implementation of its anti-doping enforcement regulations until at least January 1, 2023, and has deferred some safety provisions (notably the implementation of the riding crop37 and horse shoe specifications38) due to unforeseen supply issues and other logistical challenges. There may be further delays in the implementation of HISA, and it is likely there will be another round of litigation once the July 1, 2022 Safety Rules, or the January 1, 2023 anti-doping regulations are implemented. The inability for regulatory issues related to HISA could result in interruptions to the racing calendar and could result in lost racing opportunities for Commonwealth’s horses.

Sales Practices

 

Three of the four states where a significant percentage of public auctions of Thoroughbreds are conducted, California, Florida, and Kentucky, have enacted statutes governing the documentation of transactions involving horses. (The fourth, New York, has not followed suit.) In general, these statutes require that the purchase or sale of equine assets be accompanied by a written bill of sale signed by both the buyer and the seller or their authorized agent. For purchases and sales made through public auctions, the bill of sale requirement may be satisfied by the issuance of an auction receipt or acknowledgement of purchase generated by the auction house and signed by the buyer or the buyer’s authorized agent.

 

In response to allegations of unfair and deceptive trade practices, states have begun to enact legislation intended to foster greater transparency in transactions involving equine assets. Florida and Kentucky have enacted laws governing the conduct of agents acting on behalf of buyers and sellers of equine assets. For example, an agent is not permitted to represent both the buyer and seller in the same transaction, unless the agent first discloses the dual representation and obtains the written consent of both the buyer and seller. Similarly, an agent is not permitted to purchase on behalf of a buyer, or recommend that the buyer purchase, any equine asset in which the agent has a direct or indirect interest without the buyer’s prior knowledge and written consent. An agent is also not permitted to receive payments in excess of $500 in connection with the purchase or sale of an equine asset from anyone other than his or her principal, unless the agent and the person making the payment first discloses the payment in writing to both the purchaser and seller, and the agent’s principal consents in writing to the payment. In addition, an agent acting on behalf of a buyer or seller in a transaction involving an equine asset is required, upon the request of his or her principal, to provide the principal with all financial records relating to the transaction.

 

These laws generally afford a person injured by a violation the right to recover from the violator the difference between the price paid for the equine assets and the actual value of the equine assets at the time of sale, the amount of any undisclosed or unapproved payments made by a third party, and legal fees and expenses.

 

Operating Expenses

 

“Operating Expenses” are costs and expenses attributable to the activities of the Series (collectively, “Operating Expenses”), which may be as much as or greater than the actual cost of the interest in the Underlying Asset, including:

 

  · costs incurred in managing the Underlying Asset related to a Series, including, but not limited to boarding, maintenance, training and transportation costs (the “Upkeep Fees”); 

 

  · costs incurred prior to the offering of the Underlying Asset, including, but not limited to costs associated with the initial acquisition of the Underlying Asset, vet checks, Bloodstock Fees, etc. related to the pre-offering operation of the Underlying Asset (“Prepaid Expenses”), and, to the extent that Prepaid Expenses are lower than anticipated, any overage would be maintained in an operating account for future Operating Expenses and/or Distributable Cash which occur after the acquisition of the Underlying Asset;

 

  · costs incurred in preparing any reports and accounts of the Series, including any tax filings and any annual audit of the accounts of the Series (if applicable) or costs payable to any third-party registrar or transfer agent or governmental body and any reports to be filed with the Commission including periodic reports on Forms 1-K, 1-SA and 1-U;

 

  · any indemnification payments; and

 

  · any and all insurance premiums or related expenses in connection with the Underlying Asset, including mortality, loss of use, liability and/or medical insurance of an Underlying Asset to insure against the death, injury or third-party liability of racehorse ownership (as described in “Description of the Business – Business of the Company”). The decision to purchase insurance on a horse is made on a horse-by-horse basis. There is no guarantee that a horse you invest in will be insured.

 

We anticipate that for a majority of the Offerings, we will allocate a sizable portion of such Offering to a cash reserve to be spent on Upkeep Fees of the applicable Underlying Asset. However, if the Operating Expenses exceed the amount of revenues generated from the applicable Underlying Asset, the Manager may (a) advance or loan the amount of the Operating Expenses to such Series, on which the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, which shall not be lower than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount from future revenues generated by such Series (“Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation(s)”), and/or (b) cause additional Interests to be issued in order to cover such additional amount. In such cases, until a Series generates revenues from its interest in the applicable Underlying Asset, we expect a Series to, initially, deplete only the Upkeep Fees. We may incur Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations or the Manager pays such Operating Expenses incurred and will not seek reimbursement if Operating Expenses exceed revenues and Upkeep Fees.

 

 

 

 77 

 

 

From time to time, certain Offerings will not have an allocated upfront cash reserve for Upkeep Fees as part of such Offering proceeds. Instead, the Manager or an affiliate will, in connection with such Offering, incur liabilities related to Upkeep Fees on behalf of the Series and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount only upon a sale of the Underlying Asset or a dissolution or termination of such Series and not from Distributable Cash (as defined below) from ongoing revenues generated by such Series. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in these types of Offerings, there will still exist a smaller pre-paid cash reserve for Prepaid Expenses and insurance, administrative and general Operating Expenses which is intended to cover three years of such projected Operating Expenses (excluding Upkeep Fees).

 

In addition, the Manager, in these types of Offerings, retains discretion to also (a) loan the amount of the Operating Expenses to such Series, on which the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, which shall not be lower than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and/or (b) cause additional Interests to be issued in order to cover such additional amounts.

 

Regardless of the type of Offering, an Interest Holder will be liable only to the extent of their agreed upon capital contributions and, if no such capital remains at dissolution, such Interest Holder will not be liable for the failure of a Series to repay its underlying debt or liabilities, including the Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations.

 

Indemnification of the Manager

 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, subject to approval of each Series Manager, all officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, employees, representatives or agents of the Manager or a Series Manager, or their respective affiliates, employees or agents (each, a “Covered Person”) shall be entitled to indemnification from such Series (and the Company generally) for any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Series Manager, or such Series and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by this Agreement and any Series Agreement, except that no Covered Person shall be entitled to be indemnified for any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Covered Person by reason of fraud, deceit, gross negligence, willful misconduct or a wrongful taking with respect to such acts or omissions; provided, however, that any indemnity under the Operating Agreement shall be provided out of and to the extent of the assets of the such Series only, and no other Covered Person or any other Series or the Company shall have any liability on account thereof.

 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, subject to approval of a Series Manager, all expenses (including legal fees) incurred by a Covered Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, be advanced by such Series prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding upon receipt by such Series of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall be determined that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in the Operating Agreement.

 

Description of the Management Agreement

 

Each Series will appoint the Manager to serve as Manager (the “Manager”) to manage its interest in the Underlying Asset pursuant to a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”).

 

The services provided by the Manager will include:

 

  · Rendering management and administration services and support and other management support needed for Company’s and each Series’ operations;
     
  · A license to the MyRacehorse™ Platform for the facilitation of the offerings of the Series Interests;
     
  · Determining which Assets to select and purchase; and
     
  · Determining the amount of the selling price of the Assets upon disposition thereof.

 

 

 

 78 

 

 

The term of the Management Agreement shall commence on the date executed and shall have a term of one (1) year unless earlier terminated as provided for therein. The term of the Management agreement shall be automatically extended for a series of additional one (1) year terms unless Company notifies the Manager in writing of its desire to terminate this Agreement at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the current term.

 

Each Series will indemnify the Manager out of its assets against all liabilities and losses (including amounts paid in respect of judgments, fines, penalties or settlement of litigation, including legal fees and expenses) to which they become subject by virtue of serving as Manager under the Management Agreement with respect to any act or omission that has not been determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court, arbitrator or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to constitute fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence.

 

A copy of the Management Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 6.1.

 

Management Fee

 

As consideration for managing each Underlying Asset, the Manager will be paid a one-time Due Diligence Fee of approximately 15% of the offering proceeds and a Management Fee on an ongoing basis equal to 10% of Gross Proceeds generated by the Series.

 

Amendment to Management Agreement – Management Performance Bonus and Final Gross Proceeds Fee (applicable to future offerings)

 

In connection with newly added Offerings, the Company and the Manager have entered into an amendment to modify the fee structure payable to the Manager as follows:

 

Combination of the existing Due Diligence and Management Fee into a “Management/Due Diligence Fee”.

 

The Company is combining its existing due diligence and management fee structures into a single, ongoing Management/Due Diligence Fee which will cover the Manager’s work on behalf of a Series during its lifecycle. This includes the existing Due Diligence Fee which is a fee paid to Manager as compensation for due diligence services in evaluating, investigation and discovering the Underlying Assets and establishing the Series, not to exceed the maximum Due Diligence Fee as detailed in the Use of Proceeds for each Series. This fee includes the costs associated with managing all aspects of the selection of horses and the establishment of a series. This also includes the selection, management, authority and oversight of third-party contractors such as attorneys, accountants and bloodstock agents. In addition, ongoing work for management of veterinarians, co-owners, trainers, boarding facilities and review and audit of bills (from veterinarians, trainers, farriers etc.) will be covered here. The percentage will be determined on a series-by-series basis. The existing “Management Fee” as discussed below is being transitioned to a “Management Performance Bonus” which will only accrue in certain circumstances as described below.

 

Creation of “Management Performance Bonus” and “Final Gross Proceeds Fee.”

 

For newly added Offerings, the “Management Fee” has been combined with the “Due Diligence Fee” resulting in the “Management/Due Diligence Fee”.

 

In its place, a “Management Performance Bonus” will be in place for newly added offerings and is limited in scope when compared with the past “Management Fee”. For the Management Performance Bonus, the Manager shall receive 10 % of all Gross Proceeds from stakes races only.

 

Separately, for newly added Offerings, in connection with final sales of the Underlying Asset, in addition to the Management Performance Bonus, upon the sale of an Underlying Asset, the Manager shall receive 5% of the Final Sale Gross Proceeds if the Underlying Asset has depreciated and 20% of the Final Sale Gross Proceeds if the Underlying Asset has appreciated (referred to as “Final Gross Proceeds Fee”).

 

 

 

 79 

 

 

“Final Sale Gross Proceeds” is defined as the sum of all money generated by the sale of a horse owned by a Series, prior to any deductions that have been made or will be used for expenses. The Underlying Asset appreciation is calculated as the Gross Sale Price minus the Gross Purchase Price.

 

A copy of the Amendment First Amendment to Management Services Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 6.36

 

Facilities

 

The Manager is located 2456 Fortune Dr., Suite 110, Lexington, Kentucky 40509 and has a three year lease on the facility. The Manager presently has approximately 28 employees, 10 independent contractors and 1 advisor. The Company does not have any employees.

 

Legal proceedings

 

None of the Company, any series, the Manager, or any director or executive officer of the Manager is presently subject to any material legal proceedings.

 

Allocation of expenses

 

To the extent relevant, Offering Expenses, Operating Expenses, revenue generated from interests in underlying assets and any indemnification payments made by the Company will be allocated amongst the various interests in accordance with the Manager’s sole discretion. The Manager intends to allocate items that are allocable to a specific series to be borne by, or distributed to (as applicable), the applicable series of interests. If, however, an item is not allocable to a specific series but to the Company in general, it will be allocated pro rata based on the value of interests in underlying assets (e.g., in respect of asset level insurance) or the number of interests, as reasonably determined by the Manager.

MANAGEMENT

 

Manager

 

The Manager of the Company is Experiential Squared, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed on December 27, 2016 (also referred to as “Experiential” or as “Manager.”)

 

The Company operates under the direction of the Manager, which is responsible for directing the operations of our business, directing our day-to-day affairs, and implementing our business strategy. The Manager and its officers and directors are not required to devote all of their time to our business and are only required to devote such time to our affairs as their duties require. The Manager is responsible for determining maintenance required in order to maintain or improve the asset’s quality, determining how to monetize a Series and other underlying assets at Membership Experience Programs in order to generate profits and evaluating potential sale offers, which may lead to the liquidation of a Series as the case may be.

 

The Company will follow guidelines adopted by the Manager and implement policies set forth in the Operating Agreement unless otherwise modified by the Manager. The Manager may establish further written policies and will monitor our administrative procedures, asset operations and performance to ensure that the policies are fulfilled. The Manager may change our objectives at any time without approval of our Interest Holders.

 

The Manager performs its duties and responsibilities pursuant to our Operating Agreement. We have agreed to limit the liability of the Manager and to indemnify the Manager against certain liabilities.

 

Responsibilities of the Manager

 

Under Nevada law, the fiduciary duties of a manager to the limited liability company and to its members are limited to that of good faith and fair dealing. The Operating Agreement for the Company has set forth standards by which the duties of the Manager are to be measured.

 

Among other things, the Operating Agreement recognizes that the Manager (directly or through affiliates) is permitted to conduct outside business activities that may conflict with the Company’s business. The Company's business operations and affairs will be managed entirely by the Manager, which may be subject to certain conflicts of interest. (See “CONFLICTS OF INTEREST”) In addition, the Manager may, if desired, submit any contract or act for approval or ratification by the Members of the Company, and any contract or act approved or ratified by the affirmative vote of the Members holding a majority of percentage interests will not constitute a violation of the Manager’s duties to the Company or its Members.

 

The Members have not been separately represented by independent legal counsel in their dealings with the Manager. Members must rely on the good faith and integrity of the Manager to act in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Offering. The terms of establishment of the Company, its operations, and the operating agreement has been prepared by the Manager. Therefore, the terms and the Operating Agreement have not been negotiated in an arms' length transaction, and there is no assurance that the Company could not have obtained more favorable terms from a third party for any of these agreements. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN COUNSEL TO EVALUATE ANY AND ALL OF THESE AGREEMENTS AND RELATIONSHIPS.

 

 

 

 81 

 

 

The Manager must, on demand, give to any Member or his legal representative true and complete information concerning all Company affairs as required by law. Each Member or his legal representative has the right to inspect and copy the Company books and records upon reasonable request and in accordance with applicable law.

 

The Operating Agreement provides that the Manager shall have no liability to the Company for losses resulting from errors in judgment or other acts or omissions, as long as (i) the Manager determined, in good faith, that such action or inaction was in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and (ii) such action or inaction did not constitute fraud, deceit, willful misconduct, gross negligence, or a wrongful taking. The Operating Agreement also provides that the Company shall indemnify the Manager against liability and related expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) incurred in dealing with the Company, Members or third parties, so long as the standard described above is met. Therefore, Members may have a more limited right of action then they would have absent these provisions in the Operating Agreement. A successful indemnification of the Manager or any litigation that may arise in connection with the Manager's indemnification could deplete the assets of the Company. Members who believe that a breach of the Manager's duty has occurred should consult with their own counsel.

DESCRIPTION OF INTERESTS OFFERED

 

The following is a summary of the principal terms of, and is qualified by reference to the Operating Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit 2.2, the Series Agreements, attached hereto as exhibits as it relates to each specific Series, and the Subscription Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1, relating to the purchase of the applicable Series of Interests. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of those agreements, which should be reviewed in their entirety by each prospective Investor. In the event that the provisions of this summary differ from the provisions of the Operating Agreement, Series Agreement or the Subscription Agreement (as applicable), the provisions of the Operating Agreement, Series Agreement or the Subscription Agreement (as applicable) shall apply. Capitalized terms used in this summary that are not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Operating Agreement or Series Agreement.

  

Series Agreement

 

Each Series will have its own Series Agreement and a Subscription Agreement. The Series Agreement will include a description of the following investment details, among other things:

 

  · Such Member classes as the Series Manager may determine to be necessary, appropriate, or advantageous for operation of the Series and meeting its business objectives.
     
  · The Minimum and Maximum Dollar Amounts for each Series, if any, based on the amount of Capital Contributions needed to acquire, operate and improve the Asset.
     
  · The Minimum Investment Amount required of an individual Investor by each Series.
     
  · A tabular summary of the sources and uses of proceeds of the Capital Contributions raised by each Series.
     
  · The important dates relative to acquisition of the Asset or Capital Contributions needed for each Series.

 

Rights and Liabilities of Members

 

The rights, duties and powers of Members are governed by the Operating Agreement and the discussion herein of such rights, duties and powers is qualified in its entirety by reference to such Agreement and Act. Members who become Members in a Series in the manner set forth herein will be responsible for the obligations of the Series and will be liable only to the extent of their agreed upon capital contributions. Members may be liable for any return of capital plus interest if necessary to discharge liabilities existing at the time of such return. Any cash distributed to Members may constitute, wholly or in part, return of capital.

 

Members will have very limited control over the management of the Company or the Series. Our Manager has sole power and authority over the management of our Company and the individual Series, subject only to certain rights of our Members and our membership as a whole, to vote on certain limited matters. Furthermore, our Manager may only be removed for “Good Cause”, meaning willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard by the Manager in the performance of its duties, the criminal conviction of a federal or state securities law or any other criminal wrong-doing. To remove the Manager for “Good Cause”, Members holding (i) in excess of 75% of the percentage interests, or (ii) Members holding in excess of 75% of the outstanding percentage interests owned by disinterested Members, must approve.

 

Therefore, you will not have an active role in our Company’s management and it will be difficult to cause a change in our management.

Interest Subscriptions

 

Interests in each Series will be sold for a set price per Interest. To purchase Interests in an individual Series, an Investor must deliver to the Company a Subscription Agreement in the form attached to this Offering Circular as Exhibit 4.1 by completing the online submission at MyRacehorse.com.

 

Rights, Powers and Duties of Manager

 

Subject to the right of the Members to vote on certain limited matters, the Manager will have sole control of the business operations of the Series. The Manager is not required to devote full time to Company and Series affairs but only such time as is required for the conduct of Company and Series business. The Manager acting alone has the power and authority to act for and bind the Company or an individual Series.

 

The Manager is granted the special power of attorney of each Member for the purpose of executing the documents which the Members have expressly agreed to execute and deliver or which are required to be executed, delivered and/or filed under applicable law.

 

Dividends/Distributions

 

The Manager will attempt to manage the individual Series so as to issue dividend payments, to the extent of available cash flow. Therefore, (i) 10% of Gross Proceeds shall be payable to the Manager as a Management Fee; (ii) in the event that the Manager performs bloodstock services for an Underlying Asset, the Manager will also be paid up to 5.0% of the cost of the Underlying Asset for providing such services; and then (iii) the remaining cash available for dividends shall be payable to the Members on a pro rata basis. This shall be calculated as 100% of the dividends available after payment of the Management Fee and Bloodstock Fee, if applicable, multiplied by a fraction with the fraction being the number of Interests held by the Member as the numerator and the total number of outstanding Interests as the denominator. The Manager shall determine the cash available for dividends after retention of reasonable working capital reserves and payment of liabilities.

 

Working capital may include pre-paid insurance and administrative expenses for a horse for up to 3 years. Working capital expenses may be as much as the cost of the interest in the Underlying Asset.

 

Meetings

 

The Manager may call a meeting of an individual Series. Unless the notice otherwise specifies, all meetings will be held at the office of the Company. Members have the rights to call meetings accorded to them under the Operating Agreement or the individual Series Agreement and applicable law.

 

Accounting and Reports

 

Right of Inspection; Provision of Records to Members

 

Each Member has the right, upon reasonable request, for purposes reasonably related to the interest of that person as a Member, to inspect and copy during normal business hours any of the records required to be maintained by the Manager under the Act.

 

 

 

 90 

 

 

The Manager will furnish to a Member a copy of any amendment to the articles of organization or operating agreement executed by the Manager pursuant to a power of attorney from the Member.

 

Members will be limited to the inspection of the books and records of the individual Series in which they are a Member.

 

Annual Report

 

At such time as the Company has more than thirty-five (35) Members, each of the following shall apply:

 

The Manager will cause an annual report to be sent to each of the Members not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the close of the Fiscal Year. The report, which may be sent by electronic transmission, will contain a balance sheet as of the end of the Fiscal Year and an income statement and a statement of cash flows for the Fiscal Year.

 

Members representing at least five (5) percent of the percentage interests, or three or more Members, may make a written request to the Manager for an income statement of the Company for the initial three-month, six-month, or nine-month period of the then-current Fiscal Year ending more than 30 days prior to the date of the request, and a balance sheet of the Company as of the end of such period. The statement will be delivered or mailed to the Members within thirty (30) days thereafter.

 

The financial statements will be accompanied by the report, if any, of the independent accountants engaged by the Company or, if there is no report, the certificate of the Manager that the financial statements were prepared without audit from the books and records of the Company.

 

Tax Information

 

The Company will send or cause information to be sent in writing to each Member within ninety (90) days after the end of each taxable year the information necessary to complete federal and state income tax or information returns. Based on the Company’s intention to treat each Series as a corporation for tax purposes, the primary reporting Members should expect is through Form 1099.

 

Limited Voting Rights of Members

 

The affirmative vote of a Majority of Interests of all of the Members associated with a Series shall be required for the Company to merge or consolidate with or into, or convert into, another entity, but not to enter into a joint venture arrangement with another party or sell an Underlying Asset.

 

A Series Manager may be removed at any time, for Good Cause, by the decision of such Series Members owning more than seventy-five percent (75%) of the Percentage Interests in that Series.

 

Certain actions may require both a majority of all percentage interests in the Company and the consent of the Manager, as provided in such Series Agreement.

 

The disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets includes the disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of all of the Company’s subsidiaries in a single transaction or series of transactions but expressly excludes a sale of the assets of any single Series that owns a single Asset, which may be made by the Manager without the consent of Members.

Withdrawal from a Series

 

Each Series expects to operate for approximately four (4) to six (6) years at which time the Underlying Asset of the Series will be retired. Thereafter, the Members shall receive a return of their capital, if available. The Members should not expect withdrawal prior to this time.

 

Dissolution and Winding-Up

 

The Series Manager may dissolve the Series at any time once the Series Assets have been sold. The dissolution may only be ordered by the Series Manager or the Company, not by an owner of Series Membership Interests or by any Member of the Series. Upon dissolution of a Series, all Members of that Series will participate in the Series’ liquidating distributions, in accordance with the distributions in effect during the term and thereafter in proportion to their relative capital accounts.

  

Upon the sale of an Underlying Asset or the dissolution or termination of the Series, the Manager or an affiliate may be entitled to a repayment of its Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation, if any, as repayment of liabilities incurred related to Upkeep Fees on behalf of the Series. This may result in the reduction of liquidating distributions to Members.

 

Limitations on Transferability

 

The Operating Agreement and Series Agreement place substantial limitations upon transferability of the Interests. Any transferee (including a donee) must be a person or entity which would have been qualified to purchase an Interest in this Offering and a transferee may not become a substituted Member without the consent of the Manager. A transferee who does not become a substituted Member will own an economic interest which entitles him or her only to the share of income or return of capital to which the transferor would be entitled. In addition, there are certain rights of first refusal on any transfer.

 

Term of the Company

 

The Manager intends to operate the Company on a perpetual basis until a dissolution event.

 

Dispute Resolution

 

The Company and the Operating Agreement will be governed by Nevada law and any dispute in relation to the Company and the Operating Agreement is subject to the dispute resolution provisions set forth therein. If an Interest Holder were to bring a claim against the Company or the Manager pursuant to the Operating Agreement, it would be required to do so in compliance with these dispute resolution provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, mandatory arbitration provisions set forth therein do not apply to claims made under federal and state securities laws.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

MATERIAL UNITED STATES TAX CONSIDERATIONS

 

The following is a summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the Interests to United States holders, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all the potential tax considerations relating thereto. This summary is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative rulings and judicial decisions, all as of the date hereof. These authorities may be changed, possibly retroactively, so as to result in United States federal income tax consequences different from those set forth below. We have not sought any ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), with respect to the statements made and the conclusions reached in the following summary, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with such statements and conclusions.

 

This summary also does not address the tax considerations arising under the laws of any United States state or local or any non-United States jurisdiction or under United States federal gift and estate tax laws. In addition, this discussion does not address tax considerations applicable to an Investor’s particular circumstances or to Investors that may be subject to special tax rules, including, without limitation:

 

  (i) banks, insurance companies or other financial institutions;

 

  (ii) persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

 

  (iii) tax-exempt organizations;

 

  (iv) dealers in securities or currencies;

 

  (v) traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings;

 

  (vi) persons that own, or are deemed to own, more than five percent of our Interests (except to the extent specifically set forth below);

 

  (vii) certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;

 

  (viii) persons who hold our Interests as a position in a hedging transaction, “straddle,” “conversion transaction” or other risk reduction transaction;

 

  (ix) persons who do not hold our Interests as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, for investment purposes); or

 

  (x) persons deemed to sell our Interests under the constructive sale provisions of the Code.

 

You are urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the application of the United States federal income tax laws to your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our Interests arising under the United States federal estate or gift tax rules or under the laws of any United States state or local or any foreign taxing jurisdiction or under any applicable tax treaty.

Definitions

 

U.S. Holder. A “U.S. Holder” includes a beneficial owner of the Interests that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an individual citizen or resident of the United States.

 

Taxation of each Series of Interests as a “C” Corporation

 

The Company, although formed as a Nevada series limited liability company eligible for tax treatment as a “partnership,” has affirmatively elected for each Series of Interests to be taxed as a “C” corporation under Subchapter C of the Code for all federal and state tax purposes. Thus, each Series of Interests will be taxed at regular corporate rates on its taxable income before making any distributions to Interest Holders as described below. The current Federal tax rate on corporations is 21%.

 

Taxation of Distributions to Investors

 

Distributions to U.S. Holders out of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits will be taxable as dividends. A U.S. Holder who receives a distribution constituting “qualified dividend income” may be eligible for reduced federal income tax rates. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the characterization of corporate distributions as “qualified dividend income”. Distributions in excess of the Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits will not be taxable to a U.S. Holder to the extent that the distributions do not exceed the adjusted tax basis of the U.S. Holder’s Interests. Rather, such distributions will reduce the adjusted basis of such U.S. Holder’s Interests. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits that exceed the U.S. Holder’s adjusted basis in its Interests will be taxable as capital gain in the amount of such excess if the Interests are held as a capital asset. Investors should note that Section 1411 of the Code, added by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, added a new 3.8% tax on certain investment income (the “3.8% NIIT”), effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012. In general, in the case of an individual, this tax is equal to 3.8% of the lesser of (i) the taxpayer’s “net investment income” or (ii) the excess of the taxpayer’s adjusted gross income over the applicable threshold amount ($250,000 for taxpayers filing a joint return, $125,000 for married individuals filing separate returns and $200,000 for other taxpayers). In the case of an estate or trust, the 3.8% tax will be imposed on the lesser of (x) the undistributed net investment income of the estate or trust for the taxable year, or (y) the excess of the adjusted gross income of the estate or trust for such taxable year over a beginning dollar amount (currently $7,500 of the highest tax bracket for such year). U.S. Holders should note that for tax years beginning in 2013 and thereafter dividends will be included as investment income in the determination of “net investment income” under Section 1411(c) of the Code.

 

Taxation of Dispositions of Interests

 

Upon any taxable sale or other disposition of our Interests, a U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes on the disposition in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received on such disposition; and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Interests. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Interests generally equals his or her initial amount paid for the Interests and decreased by the amount of any distributions to the Investor in excess of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits. In computing gain or loss, the proceeds that U.S. Holders receive will include the amount of any cash and the fair market value of any other property received for their Interests, and the amount of any actual or deemed relief from indebtedness encumbering their Interests. The gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the Interests are held for more than one year before disposition. Long-term capital gains of individuals, estates and trusts currently are taxed at a maximum rate of 20% (plus any applicable state income taxes) plus the 3.8% NIIT. The deductibility of capital losses may be subject to limitation and depends on the circumstances of a particular U.S. Holder; the effect of such limitation may be to defer or to eliminate any tax benefit that might otherwise be available from a loss on a disposition of the Interests. Capital losses are first deducted against capital gains, and, in the case of non-corporate taxpayers, any remaining such losses are deductible against salaries or other income from services or income from portfolio investments only to the extent of $3,000 per year.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

 

Generally, the Company must report annually to the IRS the amount of dividends paid to you, your name and address, and the amount of tax withheld, if any. A similar report will be sent to you.

 

Payments of dividends or of proceeds on the disposition of the Interests made to you may be subject to additional information reporting and backup withholding at a current rate of 24% unless you establish an exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, backup withholding and information reporting may apply if either we or our paying agent has actual knowledge, or reason to know, that you are a United States person.

 

Backup withholding is not an additional tax; rather, the United States income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund or credit may generally be obtained from the IRS, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.

 

The preceding discussion of United States federal tax considerations is for general information only. It is not tax advice. Each prospective investor should consult its own tax advisor regarding the particular United States federal, state and local and foreign tax consequences, if applicable, of purchasing, holding and disposing of our Interests, including the consequences of any proposed change in applicable laws.
