Best Efforts Offering of Series Shares

 

StartEngine Collectibles Fund I LLC, a Delaware series limited liability company (which we refer to as “we,” “us,” “our” or “our company”), is offering, on a best-efforts basis, the membership interests in each of the series of our company.

 

All of the series of our company offered hereunder may collectively be referred to in this Offering Circular as the “series” and each, individually, as a “series.”  The membership interests of all series described above may collectively be referred to in this Offering Circular as the “shares” and each, individually, as a “share” and the offerings of the shares may collectively be referred to in this Offering Circular as the “offerings” and each, individually, as an “offering.” See “Securities Being Offered” for additional information regarding the shares.

The shares are non-voting limited liability company membership interests in a series of our company. Each series is treated as a unique legal entity. Purchasing a share in a series does not confer to the investor any ownership in our company or any other series. Each series is managed by an Administrative Manager and an Asset Manager. The Administrative Manager will be the investor liaison to our company and will perform duties such as assisting our company with communications to our investors, providing shareholder services, handling the distributions of dividends, and overseeing our shareholder records. Further, the Administrative Manager will source and secure the rights to the underlying assets in each series. The Asset Manager will manage the assets owned by the particular series it manages and has full authority to determine how to best utilize the asset owned by the series. StartEngine Assets LLC (“StartEngine Assets”) will serve as the Administrative Manager and Asset Manager to each series of our company, and unless context requires otherwise will be referred to as our “Manager”. See “The Company’s Business” for more information on the duties of our Administrative Manager and Asset Manager of our series.

 

Our company can offer up to $75 million within a rolling 12-month period pursuant to Regulation A. Our company intends to offer additional series within such limit and will file post qualification amendments for the offerings of such series with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The offerings of such series will be made available to investors from the date such amendment is qualified by the Commission. There will be separate closings with respect to each offering. An offering will terminate at the earlier of (i) the date at which the maximum offering amount has been sold; or (ii) the date at which the offering is earlier terminated by the company at its sole discretion provided that subscriptions for the minimum number of shares for that particular series’ offering has been accepted. If a closing has not occurred, an offering shall be terminated upon (i) the date which is one year from the date such offering circular or amendment thereof, as applicable, is qualified by the Commission, which period may be extended with respect to a particular series by an additional six months by our Manager in its sole discretion, or (ii) any date on which our Administrative Manager elects to terminate the offering for a particular series in its sole discretion. At least every 12 months after this offering statement has been qualified by the Commission, the company will file a post-qualification amendment to include the company’s recent financial statements. The company has engaged Prime Trust, LLC as escrow agent to hold any funds that are tendered by investors. The offerings are being conducted on a best-efforts basis. The company may undertake one or more closings on a rolling basis. After each closing, funds tendered by investors will be made available to the relevant series. After the initial closing of an offering in a series, we expect to hold closings on at least a monthly basis. However, to the extent a series has the same minimum and maximum, the company will undertake a single closing for investors in that series. After each closing related to a particular series, funds tendered by investors will be made available to the relevant series. If any of the shares offered of a series remain unsold as of the final closing of such series, such shares shall be issued to StartEngine Assets LLC, in full satisfaction of its advance to that series based on the share price of the share in such series as described “The Company’s Business – Asset Acquisition”.

SUMMARY

 

Overview

 

StartEngine Collectibles Fund I LLC is a series limited liability company formed on October 14, 2020, pursuant to Section 18-215 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, or the LLC Act.

 

As a series limited liability company, title to our underlying assets will be held by, or for the benefit of, the applicable series of interests. We intend that each series of interests will own its own underlying assets, which will be “collectibles” – generally, assets of limited quantity that have a perceived or demonstrated value. We anticipate that the assets can be broad in scope, ranging from items typically thought of as collectibles (e.g., fine art, wine, watches, trading cards, comics, cars, memorabilia) to assets that are much more unique, including copyright assets. We hope to redefine what it means to be a “collectible”. A new series of interests will be issued for future collectibles or other alternative assets to be acquired by us.

  

We believe that alternative assets are capable of delivering quality returns to investors. However, investing in alternative assets can often require significant financial resources and significant knowledge about the underlying assets and the assets’ respective industries. Due to these high barriers to entry, access to investments in alternative assets have been restrained to a fraction of the global economy. Even those that do have access to top quality alternative investments are faced with high fees, lack of transparency, and significant operational overheads. With high transactional costs and low transaction volumes, investors in alternative assets often suffer from illiquidity, resulting in long holding periods that make such investments inaccessible for many investors.

 

We plan to democratize alternative asset investing by providing access, liquidity and transparency. For different types of assets, we have and are gathering a team of individuals with knowledge and experience needed to effectively select and actively manage such assets. Investing in our series will give investors access to “collectible” assets that we deem to be valuable.

 

We plan to target the acquisition of underlying assets ranging in price anywhere from $50,000 to $5,000,000. Some assets may also be below this range. See “The Company’s Business” for more information on our business and plan of operations and “The Underlying Assets” for a description of the underlying assets and information on the series.

 

Members of our company

 

An investor who has purchased shares in one of our series in this offering will become an “Economic Member” of a series of our company (as defined in our limited liability company agreement filed as Exhibit 2.2, or our “operating agreement”). No Economic Member, in its capacity as such, will participate in the operation or management of the business of our company or any series, nor transact any business in our company or any series.

 

Managers of our company

 

Our Managing Member, StartEngine Assets LLC will also be the Administrative Manager for the company and each series as well as the Asset Manager for each series. As such, StartEngine Assets LLC has the full power and authority to do all things necessary or appropriate to conduct the business of our company and each series, without the consent of our Economic Members. StartEngine Assets LLC, a Delaware limited liability company formed on May 18, 2020, is the Managing Member of our company, and the Administrative Manager of our company and each series of our company. We refer to StartEngine Assets LLC herein as the “Managing Member” when referring to its duties in this capacity, and as our “Manager” when referring to its duties as either our Administrative Manager and/or our Asset Manager.

 

As the Administrative Manager, StartEngine Assets LLC will be responsible for identifying the assets to be purchased by a series from the offering of that series’ shares. The Administrative Manager will also be the investor liaison to our company, and will, among other things, assist with communications to our investors, provide shareholder services to our investors, handle the distributions of dividends, and oversee our shareholder records. Our Administrative Manager will coordinate with its affiliates who will serve in various capacities, including StartEngine Secure LLC, who will act as our transfer agent, StartEngine Primary LLC, who, through its alternative trading system, StartEngine Secondary LLC, will facilitate resales of our shares, and StartEngine Crowdfunding Inc. that owns and operates an online investment platform www.startengine.com.

As the Asset Manager for each series, StartEngine Assets will be and as such is responsible for managing the underlying asset or assets related to such series. Our Asset Manager has the sole authority and complete discretion over the care, custody, maintenance and management of each underlying assets and to take any action that it deems necessary or desirable in connection therewith.

 

Collectively, we refer to the Managing Member, Administrative Manager (of our company or a series), and Asset Manager, or any combination thereof, as the “Managers”. We also refer to these managers on an individual basis a “Manager”, where context permits.

·Serve as the investment and financial manager with respect to underwriting, financing, originating, servicing, investing in, redeveloping and eventually selling a diversified portfolio of the series assets;

Organizational Chart 

 

 

The above chart provides a general overview of our organizational structure, with details for our first five series. All of our series have a similar structure. 

 

Operating Expenses

 

Each series of our company will be responsible for its own third-party charges and out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred as a result of acquiring and managing the assets of a particular series, or for any other permissible business activity of a series. All operating expenses paid on behalf of a series by its Managers will be reimbursed to such Managers.

 

Each Manager will bear their own expenses of an ordinary nature, including, all costs and expenses on account of rent (other than for direct expenses for the underlying assets, including storage), supplies, secretarial expenses, stationery, charges for furniture, fixtures and equipment, payroll taxes, remuneration and expenses paid to employees and utilities expenditures (excluding utilities expenditures in connection with the storage of the underlying assets).

 

If the operating expenses exceed the amount of revenues generated from a series and cannot be covered by any reserves on the balance sheet of such series, our Managing Member may:

 

·issue additional shares in such series;

 

·pay such operating expenses and not seek reimbursement; and/or

 

·enter into an agreement in which a Manager loans the amount of the operating expenses to the applicable series, on which such Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, and be entitled to reimbursement of such amount from future revenues generated by that series.

 

For the series currently being offered, the Managing Member will not seek reimbursement for most operating expenses, including those incurred in the ordinary course of business (e.g., storage, insurance, legal and financial costs).

 

13

 

 

Offering and Formation Expenses

 

Each series of our company will be responsible for the costs and expenses attributable to the formation of series and the offering for that particular series, including expenses allocated to them under our allocation policy (we refer to these as “Offering and Formation Expenses”), see "The Company’s Business—Allocations of Expenses”. If such costs and expenses are paid by a Manager on behalf of a series, the series will reimburse the Manager for such expenditures. We expect that the total Offering and Formation Expenses that will be incurred in connection with these offerings for our series will be $120,000. In accordance with our allocation policy, we may allocate all or a portion of these offering expenses to series of our company, so long as such allocation of Offering and Formation expenses to a particular series does not exceed five percent (5%) of the maximum offering amount of that series. See “The Company’s Business—Allocations of Expenses” for more information on our allocation policy. For certain series, our Managing Member has assumed and will not be reimbursed for Offering and Formation Expenses for that series. For a particular series, see “Use of Proceeds to Issuer”.

 

Distribution Rights*

 

To the extent there is “Free Cash Flow” for any series and as described in the Series Designation for such series, our Managing Member intends to declare and pay distributions as follows:

 

·80% shareholders of a series in accordance with their percentage interest; and

 

·20% as the “Service Fee” to the Managers (half of which shall go to the Administrative Manager of such series and half of which shall go to the Asset Manager of such series.

 

*The distribution rights for Series Wine #2020PAVIE, Series Wine #2020CHBL, Series Wine #2020AUSO, Series Wine #2020ANGE and Series Wine #2020CERT (the “Original Wine Series”) are described in “Securities Being Offered – Distribution Rights – Original Wine Series”.

 

For more information on a Service Fee applicable to a specific series, see the “Management Compensation” section of this Offering Circular.

 

The Managing Member intends to make distributions on a basis that is appropriate for the underlying assets to the shareholders of a series. For instance, for most of our assets, e.g., fine art, wine, watches, trading cards, comics, cars, memorabilia, there may only be payments when an asset is sold, which may lead to just a single payment or more sporadic payments. For liquidity consideration for any assets, see “The Underlying Assets”. There is no requirement to pay distributions at any given time.

 

Distributions will be paid out of the available “Free Cash Flow” of a series, which consists of the net income (as determined under GAAP) generated by such series (before accounting for the Service Fee) plus any change in net working capital and depreciation and amortization (and any other non-cash operating expenses and/or and amounts that were previously retained as cash reserves that, during such period, the Managing Member determines are no longer needed by our company) and less any capital expenditures related to the underlying assets related to such series.

 

Our Administrative Manager has sole discretion in determining what distributions of Free Cash Flow, if any, are made to holders of each series of shares except as otherwise limited by law or the operating agreement. See “Securities Being Offered – Distribution Rights” for further details on distributions to shareholders of our series’ shares.

 

Distributions upon Liquidation*

 

In connection with the liquidation of a series (other than the Original Wine Series), whether as a result of the dissolution of our company or the termination of such series, all property and Free Cash Flows in excess of that required to discharge liabilities that are contingent, conditional or unmatured, shall be distributed as follows:

 

  · First, to the holders of the shares of the series on an equal per share basis until they have received their capital contribution;

 

  · Second, unless otherwise specified in a Series Designation, 20% to Managers of such series (half of which shall go to the relevant Asset Manager, and half of which shall go to the Administrative Manager) and 80% to the holders of shares of the series on an equal per share basis.

 

*The distributions upon liquidation for Original Wine Series are described in “Securities Being Offered – Liquidation”.

 

14

 

 

Management Compensation

 

Pursuant to our operating agreement, the Asset Manager and Administrative Manager of each series will each receive two fees as compensation for the services they provide to that series: a Service Fee (which will be a percentage of the amount of revenues the series generates) and an Asset Management Fee (which will be a percentage of the value of the assets of the series).

 

In addition, the Administrative Manager of the company will receive a sourcing fee of up to 25% of the of the amount paid for the underlying asset (up to approximately 20% of the gross offering proceeds) for the relevant series (other than the Original Wine Series) and a sourcing fee of up to 15% of the of the amount paid for the underlying asset (approximately 13.08% of the gross offering proceeds) for each of the Original Wine Series (collectively referred to as the “Sourcing Fee”), paid to the Administrative Manager as compensation for due diligence services in evaluating, investigation and discovering the underlying assets. The Sourcing Fee is subject to change or may be waived in sole discretion of the Administrative Manager. The Administrative Manager may have separate agreements with individuals and split the fee, including with the Asset Manager of a particular series. Any such arrangement for a particular series will be disclosed in the “Use of Proceeds” below.

  

For more information, see the “Management Compensation” section of this Offering Circular.

 

The Offerings

 

Securities being offered:  

This offering is for shares of the series in StartEngine Collectibles Fund I LLC. The shares being sold in this offering will be non-voting except with respect to certain matters set forth in our limited liability company agreement, dated January 5, 2021 as amended from time to time, or the “operating agreement”. The purchase of a particular series of shares is an investment only in that series of our company and not an investment in our company as a whole. The rights of the shares are described more fully in “Securities Being Offered.”

 

We are offering the minimum and maximum number of shares of each series at a price per share set forth in the “Series Offering Table” section above.  Each series of shares is intended to be a separate series of our company for purposes of assets and liabilities.

     
Minimum and maximum subscription:  

The minimum subscription by an investor for each series is detailed in the “Series Offering Table” section above and the maximum subscription by any investor is for shares representing 5% of the total shares of a particular series, although such minimum or maximum thresholds may be waived by our Administrative Manager in its sole discretion.

     
Use of proceeds:  

The proceeds received in an offering will be applied as set forth in the “Use of Proceeds” section of this Offering Circular, and will generally be used to acquire the specific assets related to that offering.

   
Risk factors:   Investing in our shares involves risks. See the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this Offering Circular and other information included in this Offering Circular for a discussion of factors you should carefully consider before deciding to invest in our shares.

 

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

As an issuer with less than $1 billion in total annual gross revenues during our last fiscal year, we will qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and this status will be significant if and when we become subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange. An emerging growth company may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company we:

 

·will not be required to obtain an auditor attestation on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

·will not be required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives (commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”);

 

15

 

 

·will not be required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our securityholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);

 

·will be exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;

 

·may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and

 

·will be eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards.

 

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under Section 107 of the JOBS Act. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

 

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or such earlier time that we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. Note that this offering, while a public offering, is not a sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement, since the offering is conducted pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” if we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenues, have more than $700 million in market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1.07 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

 

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions are also available to us due to the fact that we may also qualify, once listed, as a “smaller reporting company” under the Commission’s rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation on their assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

 

 

RISK FACTORS

 

The SEC requires our company to identify risks that are specific to its business and its financial condition. The company is still subject to all the same risks that all companies in its line of business, and all companies in the economy, are exposed to. These include risks relating to economic downturns, political and economic events and technological developments (such as hacking and the ability to prevent hacking). Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently riskier than more developed companies. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to invest.

 

Risks Relating to Our Company’s Operations and Structure

 

An investment in an offering constitutes only an investment in a particular series and not in our company or the underlying assets.

 

A purchase of our series’ shares does not constitute an investment in either our company or the underlying assets directly. This results in limited voting rights of the investor, which are solely related to the series. Investors will have voting rights only with respect to certain matters, primarily relating to amendments to the operating agreement that would adversely change the rights of the interest holders and removal of our Managing Member for “cause.” The Managing Member thus retains significant control over the management of our company and its underlying assets. Furthermore, because the shares do not constitute an investment in our company as a whole, holders of a particular series of shares will not receive any economic benefit from, or be subject to the liabilities of, the assets of any other series of interest. In addition, the economic interest of a holder in a series will not be identical to owning a direct undivided interest in the underlying assets because, among other things, the series will be required to pay corporate taxes before distributions are made to the holders, and the Asset Manager will receive a fee in respect of its management of the underlying assets.

 

16

 

 

We are a brand-new company with no operating history, which may make it difficult for investors to evaluate our business model and to assess our future viability.

 

We are a newly formed limited liability company with no operating history upon which an evaluation of our past performance and future prospects of a series. Our operations to date have been limited to organizing our company, identifying the Asset Managers and Administrative Manager, and engaging in activities related to this offering. No guarantee can be given that our company or a series will achieve their investment objectives, the value of the underlying assets will increase or the underlying assets will be successfully monetized.

 

The offering amount will exceed the value of the underlying assets and if the underlying assets are sold before they appreciate or generate income, then investors will not receive the amount of their initial investment back.

 

The size of an offering will exceed the purchase price of the related underlying assets as at the date of such offering (as the proceeds of the offering in excess of the purchase price of the underlying assets will be used to pay fees, costs and expenses incurred in making the offering and acquiring the underlying assets, as well as the Sourcing Fee to our Administrative Manager). If the underlying assets had to be sold and there had not been substantial appreciation of the underlying assets prior to such sale, there may not be sufficient proceeds from the sale of the underlying assets to repay investors the amount of their initial investment (after first paying off any liabilities on the underlying assets at the time of the sale including, but not limited to, any outstanding Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation) or any additional profits in excess of this amount.

 

Operating Expenses that are incurred after each closing will reduce potential distributions, if any, and the potential return on investment resulting from the appreciation of the underlying assets, if any.

 

Operating Expenses incurred post-closing will be the responsibility of the applicable series. For our various series, the Operating Expenses may include expenses related to perfecting the rights to those assets and on-going maintenance of those assets (e.g., storage, insurance, administrative fees, etc.). If the Operating Expenses exceed the amount of revenues generated from the underlying assets related to such series, our Managers may (a) pay such Operating Expenses and not seek reimbursement, (b) loan the amount of the Operating Expenses to the series, on which our Managers may impose a reasonable rate of interest, and be entitled to reimbursement, and/or (c) cause additional shares of such series to be issued in order to cover such additional amounts.

 

If there is a reimbursement obligation to a Manager, this reimbursable amount between related parties would be taken out of the Free Cash Flow generated by the series and could reduce the amount of any future distributions payable to investors, or could cause delays in distributions to investors (including the Preferred Return, if applicable). If additional series interests are issued, 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.

 

The success of any series depends in large part upon its Asset Manager and its ability to execute our business plan.

 

The successful operation of our series is in part dependent on the ability of the Asset Manager to effectively manage the underlying assets. Currently, StartEngine Assets LLC serves as the Asset Manager for all of our series. StartEngine Assets LLC has only been in existence since May 18, 2020 and has no significant operating history within the fine wine sector, trading card sector, art sector, or any other collectibles sector that would evidence an ability to source and manage and the underlying assets of the applicable series. If the Asset Manager cannot effectively source and manage the underlying assets of its series, investors may not receive the expected returns on their investment. Our Asset Managers also may face challenges in adjusting to management requirements associated with the size of investment we are seeking in this offering. For instance, if StartEngine Assets LLC cannot effectively scale-up its operations to assist with these increased needs, our business, and therefore your investment, may suffer.

 

Our Administrative Manager may sell its Shares post-closing which may result in a reduction in value of your Shares if there are too many series Shares available and not enough demand for those Shares.

 

Our Administrative may opt to forego a portion of the cash Sourcing Fee it is entitled to receive in exchange for shares of a particular series of equal value to the amount of the cash fee the Administrative Manager would have received from the full Sourcing Fee. Our Administrative Manager has no present intention to sell its interests, and any future sales would be based upon our potential need for capital, market prices of the interests at the time of a proposed sale and other factors that a reasonable investor might consider in connection with the sale of securities similar to our interests. There is a risk that a sale by our Administrative Manager may result in too many interests being available for resale and the price of the relevant series of interests decreasing as supply outweighs demand.

 

17

 

 

The success of our company (and therefore, each series) will be highly dependent on the expertise and performance of our Asset Managers and their teams, expert networks and other investment professionals. There can be no assurance that these individuals will continue to be associated with our Asset Managers. The loss of the services of one or more of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on the Asset Managers’ ongoing management and support of the investment of the holders of the series shares.

 

Each series of our company is expected to invest only in the related underlying assets; therefore, your investment will not be diversified and will appreciate or depreciate based on the value of the underlying assets regardless of market conditions.

 

It is not anticipated that any series would own any assets other than its related underlying assets, plus potential cash reserves for maintenance, storage, insurance and other expenses pertaining to the underlying assets and amounts earned by the related series from the monetization of the underlying assets, if any. Investors looking for diversification will have to create their own diversified portfolio by investing in other opportunities in addition to the interests offered hereby.

  

For our Original Wine Series, a series may never realize sufficient income or capital appreciation for delivering to our investors a preferred return.

 

For these series, our goal is to generate a preferred return for our investors in our series and to pay investors dividends; however, there can be no assurances that we will ever pay any dividends. Our operating agreement provides that each series will pay its Managers or their affiliates an Asset Management Fee which may reduce funds available to pay the Preferred Return to investors, or dividends from any Free Cash Flow available after such returns are paid. Further, each series will pay its Managers and their affiliates a Service Fee, which generally means that any funds remaining after payments of expenses and the Preferred Return will be split evenly between our Manager and the investors. The Service Fee will further reduce any additional dividends payable to investors above their Preferred Return, which lowers the value of your investment (compared to if the Asset Management and Service Fees were not paid to the Managers of a series).

 

Our series will generally not pay any dividend until a liquidation event.

 

The series will generally not distribute dividends until it sells the underlying asset(s), meaning that investors will only generally receive distributions upon a liquidation event. Upon such an event, investors will only receive payments after payment of fees to our Manager (e.g., the Asset Management Fee). At which point, investors will receive a return of their capital contribution (if there is sufficient funds) and, to the extent there are any remaining amounts, those will generally be split between our Manager and the investors, with the Managers receiving 20% of those amounts. The Asset Management and Service Fees lower the value of your investment (compared to if the Asset Management and Service Fees were not paid to the Managers of a series).

 

Our Managing Member in its sole discretion ultimately determine what distributions, if any will be made to holders of each series of securities.

 

Our Managing Member in its sole discretion ultimately determine when and what distributions, if any will be made to holders of each series of securities. For instance, the company may be required to create such reserves as our Administrative Manager deems necessary from time to time to meet future operating expenses, anticipated costs and liabilities of that series. That decision is ultimately reviewed by our Managing Member (consisting of our Administrative Manager) with no independent review or input from our investors. For clarity, investors do not have any rights under our operating agreement to audit, or otherwise receive an explanation regarding, decisions regarding their distribution rights. Moreover, if reserves are created, the Free Cash Flow otherwise available for distribution to holders of securities of that series will be reduced.

 

Operating expenses will be the responsibility of the applicable series. However, if the operating expenses of the series exceed the amount of revenues generated from the underlying assets related to such series, the Managing Member may issue additional shares in such series; determine that the Managing Member pay such excess operating expenses and not seek reimbursement; and/or enter into an agreement pursuant to which a Manager loans to the series an amount equal to the remaining excess operating expenses, on the Manager may impose a reasonable rate of interest, and be entitled to reimbursement.

 

18

 

 

In the case of reimbursement, this reimbursable amount between related parties would be taken out of the Free Cash Flow generated by the series and could reduce the amount of any future distributions payable to investors of that series.

 

Any adverse changes in the financial health of our Manager and its affiliates could hinder a series’ operating performance and the return on your investment.

 

Currently for all our series, StartEngine Assets LLC is the Asset Manager and Administrative Manager. The Manager of our series has been delegated the responsibilities to manage the operations and portfolio of assets of that particular series. Our ability to achieve our investment objectives and to pay distributions is dependent upon the performance of the Manager of these series and its affiliates as well as the professionals relied on by the Manager in the identification and acquisition of investments and the management of assets in a series. Any adverse changes in the financial condition of the Manager of a series could hinder their ability to successfully manage the operations and portfolios of that series, negatively impacting your investment in that series.

 

Our success is dependent, in part, upon our ability to successfully conduct this offering through the StartEngine Platform, which makes an investment in us more speculative.

 

We will continue to conduct this offering primarily through the StartEngine Platform, which is owned by StartEngine Crowdfunding, LLC. Only a limited number of alternative asset investment opportunities have been offered through the StartEngine Platform prior to this offering. The success of this offering, and our ability to implement our business strategy, is dependent upon our ability to sell our series shares to investors through the StartEngine Platform. If we are not successful in selling our series shares through the StartEngine Platform, our ability to raise proceeds through this offering will be limited and we may not have adequate capital to implement our investment strategy. If we are unsuccessful in implementing our investment strategy, you could lose all or a part of your investment.

 

Risks Related to Assets of our Series

 

The underlying assets were selected based on the opinions of the Administrative Manager. There is no guarantee the Administrative Manager will be successful in selecting assets that will generate returns.

 

The criteria used by the Administrative Manager of the series (and any advisor to such series, including the Asset Manager of such series) to select the underlying assets is subjective in nature. There is no guarantee that the asset underlying each of the series will generate any returns for investors.

 

The asset classes for our underlying assets are hard to value and any valuations obtained are not guarantees of realizable price.

 

The asset classes for our collectibles can be difficult to value. We will strive to obtain proper valuations of the underlying assets based on quantifiable data (e.g. market performance, previous sales history, etc.) – however, valuations will also be based on subjective opinions of experts and the Asset Manager of our series, which may be inaccurate. As relevant, our Asset Manager will strive to source data from reputable valuation providers in the relevant industry; however, it may rely on the accuracy of the underlying data without any means of detailed verification. Consequently, valuations may be uncertain.

 

The value of the underlying assets can go down as well as up. Valuations are not guarantees of realizable price, do not necessarily represent the price at which our shares may be sold. The value of the underlying assets may be materially affected by a number of factors outside of our control, including, any volatility in the economic markets and the condition of the underlying assets.

 

19

 

 

Title or authenticity claims on an underlying asset may diminish value of the underlying asset, as well as the series that relates to such underlying asset.

 

There is no guarantee that an underlying asset will be free of any claims regarding title and authenticity (e.g., counterfeit or previously stolen collectibles), or that such claims may arise after acquisition of an underlying asset by a series. We may not have complete ownership history or restoration and repair records for an underlying asset. The underlying assets of our series will generally be originally sourced from individuals and entities that the Asset Manager and Administrative Manager of such series believes to have developed reputations in their respective areas, including wine brokers and sellers of collectibles (e.g., fine art, wine, watches, trading cards, comics, cars, memorabilia). Based on the reputations of those individuals and entities, those Managers then relies on those individuals and entities regarding the authenticity and ownership claims without undertaking an independent review of such claims. In the event of a title or authenticity claim against us, we may not have recourse against the asset seller or the benefit of insurance, and the value of the underlying asset and the series related to such underlying asset may be diminished.

  

Potentially high storage, maintenance and insurance costs for the underlying assets may adversely impact the value of the related series and the amount of distributions made to holders of shares. Further, the Asset Manager will rely on third parties to provide storage and maintenance.

 

In order to protect and care for our underlying assets, our Asset Manager must ensure adequate storage facilities, maintenance work and insurance coverage. The cost of care may vary from year to year depending on changes in the insurance rates and in the cost of storage. It is anticipated that as we acquire more assets that we acquire within a type of class (e.g., if we purchase fine art, wine, watches, trading cards, comics, cars, or memorabilia), our Asset Manager may be able to negotiate a discount on the costs of storage, maintenance and insurance due to economies of scale. These reductions are dependent on our acquiring a number of assets within a similar class of assets and service providers being willing to negotiate volume discounts and, therefore, are not guaranteed.

 

If costs turn out to be higher than expected, this will impact the value of the series, the amount of distributions made to investors holding the series, on potential proceeds from a sale of the underlying assets (if ever), and any capital proceeds returned to investors after paying for any outstanding liabilities.

 

Further, many of the underlying assets are fragile and can easily be damaged, stolen and/or destroyed in the absence of proper storage or maintenance. We will be relying on third-parties to provide such services to us. Any failure on their part, may have a material adverse effect on the value of your investment.

 

There is no assurance that the underlying assets we purchase will appreciate in value, and in fact, they may decrease in value.

 

There is no guarantee that any underlying asset we acquire will appreciate in value. There are a number of events that could cause our assets to depreciate in value or not appreciate as anticipated, including, but not limited to,

 

Wine Assets

 

·any harm to the reputation of the producers of the fine wines we acquire, such as winemakers, wineries, or their respective owners, which could adversely impact the value of those wines.

 

·change in consumer tastes, resulting in a decrease in demand for a previously popular wine variety.

 

·sudden changes in availability of specific wines, or wines from a particular region, which reduce the value of the wines in those categories that we hold.

 

20

 

 

Collectible Assets (fine art, watches, trading cards, comics, cars, memorabilia)

 

  · any harm to the reputation of artists and/or manufacturers related to the collectibles we acquire, which could adversely impact the value of those collectibles.

 

  · Any downturn in the relevant collectibles industry.

 

Furthermore, as wine and other collectibles are collectible items, the value of such collectables may be impacted if an economic downturn occurs and there is less disposable income for individuals to invest in wine and collectables. In the event of a downturn in the industry, the value of the underlying assets is likely to decrease.

 

The above occurrences, as applicable, could have a material adverse effect on the value of our underlying assets, and as such, the value of your investment in the series. 

 

If there are multiple underlying assets in a series, forced sale of one or more of the underlying assets at a lower value than when the asset was first acquired may diminish the value of the series that owns those particular assets.

 

If there are multiple underlying assets in a series, we may be forced to sell certain underlying assets we have acquired in the case of an unexpected event necessitating us to acquire cash, and such a sale may occur at an inopportune time or 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 such underlying assets. In such circumstances, the capital proceeds obtained for the underlying asset, and therefore, the return available to investors, may be lower than could have been obtained if the underlying assets continued to be held by us and sold at a later date. 

 

If we are unable to liquidate an underlying asset at a time when we desire to do so or at all, investors may not receive any return on their investment and may lose their entire investment. Further, we may have to hold on to underlying assets for a long period of time, which may not be suitable for some investors.

 

Our strategy is to acquire underlying assets, hold such assets for a period of time and then sell such assets at a premium over our acquisition price so that investors in our series can make a return on their investment. For certain assets, there may be an average time horizon, for example, we anticipate holding wine assets on average between one to five years; however, for other assets the liquidity time frame may be significantly longer, for example for collectible assets it may be up to twenty years. If we are unable to sell an underlying asset at a time when we desire to do so or at all, we may not be able to realize a return on that investment, or lose that investment altogether. Further, we may end up holding our underlying assets for a long period of time before we are able to monetize (i.e. sell) such assets, which could result in long periods of time in which investors do not realize returns on their investments. This may make an investment in any of those series unsuitable for investors that cannot withstand such long holding periods.

 

Potential loss of or damage to an underlying asset could adversely impact the value of the underlying asset, the series related to the underlying asset, or the likelihood of any distributions made by us to investors.

 

Our underlying assets may be lost or damaged by causes beyond our reasonable control when in storage or in transit. In general, any damage to our underlying assets (e.g., for wine it would most commonly be, bottle breakage or spoilage of wine) could result in the loss of value of the underlying asset, and for certain assets, for example wine, it may be a complete loss of value. Although we intend for the underlying assets to be insured at replacement cost (subject to policy terms and conditions), in the event of any claims against such insurance policies, there can be no guarantee that any losses or costs will be reimbursed, that the underlying assets can be replaced on a like-for-like basis or that any insurance proceeds would be sufficient to pay the full market value of the damaged asset. Such an occurrence would negatively affect the value of the series related to those such asset or assets, as well as the likelihood of any distributions being made by us to the investors.

 

21

 

 

Competition in the collectibles industry from other business models may make it difficult to obtain underlying assets.

 

There is potentially significant competition for the underlying assets from many different market participants. While the majority of transactions continue to be peer-to-peer with very limited public information, other market players, such as collectibles dealers and auction houses, continue to play an increasing role. In addition, the underlying market is being driven by the increasing number of widely popular collectibles TV shows, including Antiques Roadshow, Storage Pickers, American Pickers and Pawn Stars. This competition may impact the liquidity of a series, as it is dependent on our acquiring attractive and desirable underlying assets to ensure that there is an appetite of potential investors for the interests. In addition, there are companies that have developed and are developing crowd funding models to enter this market.  

 

Restoration or repair of an underlying asset may result in a decrease in the value of the underlying asset.

 

Although we do not intend to undertake restoration or repair of the underlying assets, there may be situations in the future that we are required to do so (e.g., due to natural wear and tear and through the use of the underlying assets). Where we do so, we will be dependent on the performance of third-party contractors and sub-contractors and may be exposed to the risks that a project will not be completed within budget, within the agreed timeframe or to the agreed specifications. While we will seek to mitigate our exposure by negotiating appropriate contracts, including appropriate warranty protection, any failure on the part of a contractor to perform its obligations could adversely impact the value of the underlying assets and, therefore, the value of the series related to such underlying assets.

 

In addition, the successful restoration or repair of the collectibles may be dependent on sourcing replacement original and authentic paint or parts. Original paint or parts for collectibles are rare and in high demand and, therefore, at risk of being imitated. There is no guarantee that any paint or parts sourced for the underlying assets will be authentic (e.g., not a counterfeit). If such paint or parts cannot be sourced or those paints or parts that are sourced are not authentic, the value of the underlying assets and, therefore, the value of the series related to such underlying assets may be materially adversely affected. Furthermore, if an underlying asset is damaged, we may be unable to source original and authentic paint or parts for the underlying asset, and the use of non-original and authentic paint or parts may decrease the value of the underlying asset.

 

Insurance may not cover all losses, which may result in an operating loss and likelihood that distributions will not be made by us.

 

Insurance of the underlying assets may not cover all losses. There are certain types of losses, generally of a catastrophic nature, such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, terrorism or acts of war, that may be uninsurable or not economically insurable. Inflation, environmental considerations and other factors, including terrorism or acts of war, also might make insurance proceeds insufficient to repair or replace an asset if it is damaged or destroyed. Under such circumstances, the insurance proceeds received might not be adequate to restore our economic position with respect to any affected underlying assets. Furthermore, the series related to such affected underlying assets would bear the expense of the payment of any deductible. Any uninsured loss could result in both loss of cash flow from and the value of the affected underlying assets and, consequently, the series that relate to such underlying assets.

 

We may be associated with third-party liability and exposed to reputational harm as a result of wrongful actions by certain third parties.

 

Each series will assume all of the ownership risks attached to its underlying assets, including third-party liability risks. Therefore, the series may be liable to a third party for any loss or damages incurred by it in connection with its underlying assets. This would be a loss to our company and, therefore, deductible from any income or capital proceeds payable in respect of the series from the related underlying assets, in turn adversely affecting the value of the series to which the underlying assets relate and the likelihood of any distributions being made by us.

 

22

 

 

We could be exposed to losses and/or reputational harm as a result of various claims and lawsuits incidental to the ordinary course of our business.

 

We may become involved in various legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims incidental to the ordinary course of our business. We are required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes in these matters, as well as potential ranges of probable or reasonably possible losses. A determination of the amount of losses, if any, to be recorded or disclosed as a result of these contingencies will be based on a careful analysis of each individual exposure with, in some cases, the assistance of outside legal counsel. The amount of losses recorded or disclosed for such contingencies may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or a change in settlement strategy.

 

The value of the underlying assets may depend on a prior owner or association and, therefore, may be out of our control.

 

The value of an underlying asset may be connected with its prior ownership by, or association with, a certain person or group or in connection with certain pop culture events or films. In the event that such person or group loses public affection, then this may adversely impact the value of the underlying asset and, therefore, the series that relates to such underlying asset.

 

Digital assets are subject to risks of loss and theft that differ from physical assets.

 

Distributed ledgers are used to record transfers of ownership of digital assets, including, without limitation, non-fungible tokens (which we refer to as “NFTs”), which are custodied, or “held,” in digital wallets, or “wallets,” and are solely represented by ledger balances and secured by cryptographic key pairs, a public key for transfers into the respective cryptographic wallet and a private key for accessing the subject cryptographic wallet and managing the digital assets held therein. Only the public key address will be generally exposed to the public on the respective distributed ledger. The associated private key is necessary to affect the sale or transfer of digital assets and, as such, is meant to be kept private. Once a wallet is created, a randomly generated 12-word seed phrase is given that is needed to access the wallet on another device. On the initial device or additional devices if the seed phrase is held, wallets are accessed via device-specific passwords.

 

As such, digital assets are vulnerable to loss. Particularly, if our Managing Member (or other custodian, as applicable) loses the seed phrase and is also unable to access a wallet via device-specific password, any digital assets held in such wallet will be permanently lost. While our Managing Member intends to employ commercially reasonable measures to prevent any such loss, there is no guarantee that such a loss will not occur.

 

Similarly, digital assets may also be as vulnerable to cyber theft as a traditional online brokerage account would be. In particular, if our Managing Member (or other custodian, as applicable) is hacked and any one or more of the private keys or the seed phrase are stolen, the thief could transfer the digital assets to its own account and/or sell such digital assets (as applicable). Further, while our Managing Member intends to employ commercially reasonable measures to prevent any such data breach, there is no guarantee that such a data breach will not occur and/or that if such a breach were to occur that it could be detected in time to prevent the unauthorized sale/transfer/use of the affected digital assets. See “The Underlying Assets—Storage” for a description of our Managing Member’s security and storage protocols for digital assets.

 

Digital asset transactions may be irreversible, and, accordingly, losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions or technology failures in our Managing Member’s wallet may not be recoverable.

 

Digital assets are bearer assets, with whoever holds the asset being the owner. Accordingly, digital asset transactions may be irreversible, and our Managing Member may irreversibly lose an underlying digital asset in a variety of circumstances, including in connection with fraudulent or accidental transactions, technology failures in wallet software or cyber-security breaches. Losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions may not be recoverable.

 

23

 

 

There is currently no insurance available for NFTs, and future costly insurance for NFTs may adversely impact the value of related series and the amount of distributions made to holders of interests.

 

There is currently no insurance available for NFTs, and insurance may never be available from traditional providers, so our Managing Member self-insures underlying NFTs on behalf of our company. Accordingly, until traditional insurance is available for NFTs, protection of NFTs through insurance is solely dependent on our Managing Member, and thus dependent on the expertise and performance of our Managing Member and its team. See “The Underlying Assets—Insurance” for a description of how our Managing Member self-insures NFTs.

 

Should traditional insurance become available, the cost of protecting such NFTs may be substantial and may vary from year to year depending on changes in the insurance rates for covering the underlying assets. If costs turn out to be higher than expected, this would impact the value of the series, the amount of distributions made to investors holding the series, potential proceeds from a sale of the related underlying NFT (if ever) and any capital proceeds returned to investors after paying for any outstanding liabilities, including, but not limited to, any outstanding balances under Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation.

 

There is no guarantee that digital assets will hold their value or increase in value, and you may lose the amount of your investment in a related series in whole or in part.

 

Digital assets are highly speculative, and any return on an investment in a series holding a digital asset or digital assets as its underlying asset(s) is contingent upon numerous circumstances, many of which (including legal and regulatory conditions) are beyond our control. There is no assurance that investors will realize any return on their investments or that their entire investment will not be lost.

In particular, digital assets are a new and relatively untested asset class. There is considerable uncertainty about their long-term viability, which could be affected by a variety of factors, including many market-based factors such as economic growth and others. In addition, the success of digital assets will depend on whether blockchain and other new technologies related to such assets turn out to be useful and economically viable.

 

The prices of digital assets are extremely volatile, and the value of underlying digital assets, and consequently the value of related series and the amount of distributions made to holders of interests, may be materially adversely affected as a result.

 

The volatility and unpredictability of the price of digital assets relative to fiat and other currency may result in significant loss over a short period of time. The prices of digital assets and cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ether, have historically been subject to dramatic fluctuations, and are highly volatile, and the market price of underlying digital assets may also be highly volatile, which in turn may result in a decline in value of the related series and the amount of distributions made to holders of interests in such series. Several factors may influence the market price of underlying digital assets, including, but not limited to:

 

the availability of an exchange or other trading platform for digital assets;
general adoption of online digital asset exchanges and digital wallets that hold digital assets, the perception that the use and holding of digital assets as safe and secure and the regulatory restrictions on their use;
changes in the software, software requirements or hardware requirements underlying any digital assets;
currency exchange rates, including the rates at which digital assets may be exchanged for fiat currencies;
government-backed currency withdrawal and deposit policies of digital asset exchanges;
interruptions in service from or failures of a major digital asset exchange on which digital assets are traded;
investment and trading activities of large purchasers, including private and registered funds, that may directly or indirectly invest in digital assets;
coordinated algorithmic behavior, including trading, by a large pool of small digital token holders;
monetary policies of governments, trade restrictions, currency devaluations and revaluations;
regulatory measures, if any, that affect the use or holding of digital assets;
global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations; and
expectations among participants that the value of digital assets will soon change.

 

24

 

 

In addition, decreases in the price of even a single other digital asset may cause volatility in the entire digital asset industry and may affect the value of other digital assets, including any underlying digital assets. For example, a security breach or any other incident or set of circumstances that affects purchaser or user confidence in Ether or another well-known cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin may affect the industry as a whole and may also cause the price of other digital assets, including, without limitation, NFTs, to fluctuate.

 

There can be no assurance that the market for NFTs will be sustained, which may materially adversely affect the value of NFTs, and consequently the value of related series and the amount of distributions made to holders of interests.

 

The market for NFTs, whether digital art or otherwise, is still nascent, with most growth having occurred in 2020 and the quarter of 2021, and may not be sustained. If the market for NFTs is not sustained, it may be difficult or impossible for us to resell any underlying NFT asset, or to sell at a desirable price. The volatility and unpredictability of the price of NFTs relative to fiat and other currency may result in significant loss over a short period of time. The prices of NFTs have already been subject to dramatic fluctuations, and are highly volatile, which in turn may result in a decline in value of the related series and the amount of distributions made to holders of interests in such series.

 

The Ethereum blockchain on which ownership of underlying digital assets is recorded may be the target of malicious cyberattacks or may contain exploitable flaws in its underlying code, which may result in security breaches or the loss, decline in value or theft of underlying digital assets.

 

Underlying digital assets rely on the Ethereum blockchain to operate. As a result, underlying digital assets are subject to a number of reliability and security risks attendant to blockchain and distributed ledger technology, including malicious attacks seeking to identify and exploit weaknesses in the software. Such attacks may materially and adversely affect the Ethereum blockchain, which may in turn materially and adversely affect the transfer or storage of underlying digital assets. As a result of these and other risks of malicious attacks, there can be no assurances that the transfer or storage of underlying digital assets will be uninterrupted or fully secure. Any such interruption or security failure may result in impermissible transfers, decline in value or a complete loss of underlying digital assets.

 

The technology underlying blockchain technology is subject to a number of known and unknown technological challenges and risks that result in decline in value of underlying digital assets.

 

The blockchain technology used in connection with digital assets, which is sometimes referred to as “distributed ledger technology,” is a relatively new, untested and evolving technology. It represents a novel combination of several concepts, including a publicly available database or ledger that represents the total ownership of digital assets at any one time, novel methods of authenticating transactions using cryptography across distributed network nodes that permit decentralization by eliminating the need for a central clearinghouse while guaranteeing that transactions are irreversible and consistent, differing methods of incentivizing this authentication by the use of blocks of new tokens issued as rewards for the validator of each new block or transaction fees paid by participants in a transaction to validators and hard limits on the aggregate amount of digital assets that may be issued. As a result of the new and untested nature of blockchain technology, digital assets are vulnerable to risks and challenges, both foreseen and unforeseen. Examples of these risks and challenges include:

 

The Ethereum blockchain may either increase or decrease the incentive payments required to complete transactions on the Ethereum blockchain, which could materially and adversely affect the transfer or storage of underlying digital assets. Because our Managing Member plans to pay the cost of Ethereum transaction fees for transfers of underlying digital assets, this could also materially and adversely affect the business of our Managing Member. In addition, changes could also reduce the number of validators on the Ethereum blockchain, which could possibly leave the Ethereum blockchain increasingly vulnerable to a so-called 51% attack.
The expansion of the Ethereum blockchain and effecting the creation, transfer and storage of digital assets, which currently relies on a “proof-of-work” consensus protocol system whereby blocks are awarded based on the solving of computationally difficult problems, has resulted in Ethereum validators using increasing amounts of energy that may be unsustainable as the system continues to grow, and which may draw unfavorable regulatory attention. Further, when or if the Ethereum blockchain switches to either a hybrid “proof-of-work and proof-of-stake” or “proof-of-stake” consensus protocol system, an Ethereum-wide change to its consensus protocol may present additional risks. For example, transactions in digital assets may not be processed as presently contemplated in the period of time during or after the switch in consensus protocols, which may materially and adversely affect the transfer or storage of underlying digital assets.

 

25

 

 

Although there may be solutions that have been proposed and implemented to these and other challenges facing various digital assets, the effectiveness of these solutions has not been proven. Further, other challenges may arise in the future that we cannot predict. For example, advances in cryptography and/or technical advances, such as the development of quantum computing, could present risks to the current digital assets by undermining or vitiating the cryptographic consensus mechanism that underpins the Ethereum blockchain protocol. Similarly, legislatures and regulatory agencies could prohibit the use of current and/or future cryptographic protocols which could result in a significant loss of value or the termination of digital assets. Accordingly, the further development and future viability of digital assets in general is uncertain, and unknown challenges may prevent their wider adoption.

 

The technology underlying blockchain technology is subject to a number of industry-wide challenges and risks relating to consumer acceptance of blockchain technology. The slowing or stopping of the development or acceptance of blockchain networks and blockchain assets would have a material adverse effect on the successful adoption of the tokens. The value of underlying digital assets, and consequently the value of related series and the amount of distributions made to holders of interests, may be materially adversely affected as a result.

 

The growth of the blockchain industry in general, as well as the Ethereum blockchain on which underlying digital assets rely, is subject to a high degree of uncertainty regarding consumer adoption and long-term development. The factors affecting the further development of the blockchain and digital asset industry include, without limitation:

 

worldwide growth in the adoption and use of digital assets and other blockchain technologies;
government and quasi-government regulation of digital assets and their use, or restrictions on or regulation of access to and operation of blockchain networks or similar systems;
the maintenance and development of the open-source software protocol of blockchain networks;
changes in consumer demographics and public tastes and preferences;
the availability and popularity of other forms or methods of buying and selling goods and services, or trading assets, including new means of using government-backed currencies or existing networks;
the extent to which current interest in digital assets represents a speculative “bubble”;
general economic conditions in the United States and the world;
the regulatory environment relating to digital assets and blockchains; and
a decline in the popularity or acceptance of digital assets or other blockchain-based tokens.

 

The digital asset industry as a whole has been characterized by rapid changes and innovations and is constantly evolving. Although it has experienced significant growth in recent years, the slowing or stopping of the development, general acceptance and adoption and usage of blockchain networks and blockchain assets may deter or delay the acceptance and adoption of digital assets. In particular, the slowing or stopping of the development, general acceptance and adoption and usage of the ERC-721 protocol may deter or delay the acceptance and adoption of NFTs created using this protocol.

 

The slowing or stopping of the development, general acceptance and adoption and usage of blockchain networks and/or blockchain assets generally or the ERC-721 protocol in particular may adversely impact the value of underlying digital assets or NFTs, as applicable, and consequently, the series related to the underlying digital asset(s), as well as decrease the likelihood of any distributions being made by us to the investors. The value of specific underlying digital assets, and consequently the value of related series, relies on the development, general acceptance and adoption and usage of the applicable blockchain network in that demand depends on ability to readily access the applicable network. For example, the slowing or stopping of general acceptance of the ERC-721 protocol could platforms such as Nifty Gateway ceasing to support the protocol, which in turn could reduce demand for NFTs based on such protocol and result in a decline or complete loss in value of underlying NFTs and the related series.

 

The value of digital art NFTs relies in part on the development, general acceptance and adoption and usage of blockchain assets, rather than solely on the digital artwork itself.

 

Digital art NFTs are a means to establish proof of ownership of digital art through cryptographic key pairs, the public key of the creator(s) or artist(s) who created the digital artwork and the private key of the holder representing a verified instance (whether unique or part of a series) of that digital artwork. The purchase of a digital art NFT gives the holder the right to hold, transfer and/or sell the NFT. The NFT does not, itself, include any physical manifestation of the digital art. The value of digital art NFTs is derived from the cryptographic record of ownership, rather than solely on the digital artwork itself; a digital artwork originated as an NFT (i.e., the actual file or files constituting the artwork of which ownership is represented by an NFT) may have no value absent the NFT, depending on what other rights were conveyed with the NFT, for example a copyright interest that could be transferred separate from the NFT. Thus, the value of the digital art NFT relies in part on the continued development, general acceptance and adoption and usage of the applicable blockchain.

 

26

 

 

The Ethereum blockchain network on which the ERC-721 protocol is based, and thus ownership and transfer of underlying NFT assets are recorded, utilizes code that is subject to change at any time. These changes may have unintended consequences for underlying NFT assets.

 

Underlying NFT assets are built as ERC-721 tokens recorded on the Ethereum blockchain. In addition to the aforementioned risks regarding development and acceptance of blockchain networks or the price of blockchain assets that may negatively affect the Ethereum network, other changes, such as upgrades to Ethereum’s blockchain, a hard fork in Ethereum or a change in how transactions are confirmed on the Ethereum blockchain, may have unintended, adverse effects on NFTs built under the ERC-721 standard. Any such changes to the Ethereum network could negatively affect the value of underlying NFT assets.

 

Forks may be implemented on the Ethereum blockchain in a manner that may affect the value of underlying NFT assets, and may ultimately result in duplicate records of underlying NFT assets.

 

Third-party groups or individuals involved in the network may at any time propose upgrades or changes to the open-source software underlying the Ethereum blockchain that can result in prolonged “forks” in the Ethereum blockchain. While we do not believe that these changes present significant risks to the underlying NFT assets, there is, however, a possibility that these changes could result in disagreements regarding which record of an NFT should be recognized as legitimate. Our Managing Member would publicly disclaim such a duplicate record as legitimate and work with the community to ensure adoption of only the original record.

 

Risks Related to Potential Conflicts of Interest

 

Management Compensation

 

None of the compensation set forth under “Management Compensation” was determined by arms’ length negotiations, including the Sourcing Fee, Administrative Fee and Service Fee. It is anticipated that the commissions and profits received by the Managers may be higher or lower depending upon market conditions.

 

Our operating agreement contains provisions that reduce or eliminate duties (including fiduciary duties) of our Managers and Managing Member.

 

Our operating agreement provides that each of our Managers and Managing Member, in exercising its rights in its capacity as Manager or Managing Member, as applicable, will be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and will have no duty or obligation (fiduciary or otherwise) to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting us or any of our investors and will not be subject to any different standards imposed by our operating agreement, the Limited Liability Company Act (the “LLC Act”) or under any other law, rule or regulation or in equity. These modifications of fiduciary duties are expressly permitted by Delaware law.

 

Our Manager faces a conflict of interest because the amount they receive for services performed for us is based on our Free Cash Flow, for which they are responsible for calculating.

 

Our operating agreement provides that each series will pay our Manager or its affiliates a Service. See “Management Compensation” for further details. The calculation of our Free Cash Flows involves certain subjective judgments including determining the amount to set aside for reserves, and assumptions for depreciations or classification of certain cash amounts. Because the calculation of the Free Cash Flow involves subjective judgment, there can be no assurance that the assumptions used by our internal accountants and team members of our Administrative Manager and Asset Manager to calculate our Free Cash Flow, or the resulting Free Cash Flow, will be identical to the assumptions that would be used, or the Free Cash Flow that would be calculated, by an independent consultant. In addition, our Managers may benefit by selling or disposing of our assets at times when our shareholders may be better served by holding our assets or may benefit from increasing the amount of risk in a series in order to increase the amount they may receive in a particular year as their Service Fee.

 

Conflicts may arise from allocations of income and expenses as between series.

 

There may be situations when it is challenging or impossible to accurately allocate income, costs and expenses to a specific series and certain series may get a disproportionate percentage of the cost or income, as applicable. In such circumstances, including how it may impact our Service Fee, our Managers would be conflicted from acting in the best interests of our company as a whole. While we presently intend to allocate expenses as described in “The Company’s Business—Allocations of Expenses,” our Managers have the right to change this allocation policy at any time without further notice to investors.

 

27

 

 

There may be conflicting interests among our Managers and investors.

 

Our Managing Member has the ability to unilaterally amend the operating agreement and allocation policy. As our Managing Member is party, or subject, to these documents, it may be incentivized to amend them in a manner that is beneficial to it as the Administrative Manager of our company or a series or may amend it in a way that is not beneficial for all investors. In addition, the operating agreement seeks to limit the fiduciary duties that our Managing Member owes to investors in our company and its series. Therefore, our Managing Member is permitted to act in its own best interests rather than the best interests of the investors. See “The Company’s Business” for more information.

 

Conflicts may exist between legal counsel, our company, our Asset Managers and their affiliates.

 

Our legal counsel is also counsel to our Asset Managers and their affiliates, and may serve as counsel with respect to a series. Because such legal counsel represents both our company and such other parties, certain conflicts of interest exist and may arise. To the extent that an irreconcilable conflict develops between us and any of the other parties, legal counsel may represent such other parties and not our company or a series. Legal counsel may, in the future, render services to us or other related parties with respect to activities relating to our company as well as other unrelated activities. Legal counsel is not representing any prospective investors in connection with any offering and will not be representing equity holders of our company other than our Asset Managers, although the prospective investors may rely on the opinion of legal counsel with respect to the validity of the securities filed as Exhibit 12.1 to the offering statement. Prospective investors are advised to consult their own independent counsel with respect to the other legal and tax implications of an investment in our securities.

 

Certain aspect of the compensation structure we have in place for Managers of our series  may lead to conflicts of interest between a series and its investors.

 

The Manager of a series is entitled to a Service Fee which will generally be 20% of any Free Cash Flow (half of which will go to the Asset Manager of that series, with the remaining half going to the Administrative Manager) (See the “Management Compensation” section this Offering Circular). However, for certain series, the Service Fee may be 50%. Moreover, for many of our series the Service Fee may only be paid at liquidation, after returning capital contributions to our investors. If a series is underperforming, it may be very difficult for the Managers to generate enough cash flow to earn a Service Fee. Further, for certain series, there is a Preferred Return, which would get paid ahead of the Service Fee. This could have an adversely affect the incentives for the series Managers to perform their duties, and may cause they do not perform their duties altogether for a series. Such a result would adversely impact the value of your investment in that particular series.

 

Our Asset Manager will be the Asset Manager for all of our series may face conflicts of interest resulting from providing services to our series and to other entities to which the Asset Managers provide services.

 

StartEngine Assets is also the Asset Manager for other affiliated companies, and may perform similar services for other companies and entities. There is a risk that our Asset Managers will not allocate desirable time to working on your series, including arranging for timely liquidations or devising a way to monetize the series prior to a liquidation.

 

Risks Relating to the Offering and Ownership of Our Series Shares

 

We intend to have our securities quoted on a new alternative trading system (“ATS”), and there can be no assurances that any public market will ever develop; even if developed, trading is likely to be subject to significant price fluctuations.

 

The only formal marketplace for the resale of our securities will be StartEngine Secondary, an ATS operated by our affiliate, StartEngine Primary LLC. StartEngine Secondary is a new entrant to the alternative trading system market and our securities have yet to be resold on the ATS. Consequently, there can be no assurances as to whether:

 

·any market for shares in any series will develop;

 

·the price at which shares for a series will trade; or

 

·the extent to which investors in us will lead to the development of an active, liquid trading market.

 

28

 

 

Active trading markets generally result in lower price volatility and more efficient execution of buy and sell orders for investments. Until an orderly market develops in the shares of any series, if ever, the price at which they trade is likely to fluctuate significantly. Prices for shares in a series will be determined in the marketplace and may be influenced by many factors, including the depth and liquidity of the market for those shares, developments affecting our business, including the impact of the factors referred to elsewhere in these risk factors, investor perception of our company and a particular series and general economic and market conditions. No assurances can be given that an orderly or liquid market will ever develop for the shares of a series. We cannot assure you that trading prices for shares of a particular series will not be significantly lower than the price at which such securities are sold in this offering.

 

Investors in this offering may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under our operating agreement or subscription agreement, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action under the operating agreement or subscription agreement.

 

Investors in this offering will be bound by our operating agreement, which establishes the rights of members and rules for governance of our company. Under Section 15.08 of our operating agreement, investors waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against our company arising out of or relating to the operating agreement, or the action of becoming an interest holder in a series. This includes legal actions that include claims based on federal securities laws. In addition, investors in this offering will also execute a subscription agreement with a similar jury trial waiver. By subscribing to an offering of a series, the investor signs the subscription agreement by which the investor agrees to adhere to the operating agreement, under both of which such investor waives their right to our jury trial.

 

If we opposed a jury trial demand based on one of the waivers, a court would determine whether such waiver was enforceable based on the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with the applicable state and federal law. To our knowledge, the enforceability of a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver in connection with claims arising under the federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by a federal court. However, we believe that a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision is generally enforceable, including under the laws of the State of Delaware, which govern the operating agreement and subscription agreement. In determining whether to enforce a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision, courts will generally consider whether the visibility of the jury trial waiver provision within the agreement is sufficiently prominent such that a party knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waived the right to a jury trial. We believe that this is the case with respect to each of the operating agreement and subscription agreement. You should consult legal counsel regarding the jury waiver provision before investing in this offering.

 

If you bring a claim against our company in connection with matters arising under the operating agreement and/or subscription agreement, including claims under federal securities laws, you may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to those claims, which may have the effect of limiting and discouraging lawsuits against our company. If a lawsuit is brought against our company under the operating agreement or subscription agreement, it may be heard only by a judge or justice of the applicable trial court, which would be conducted according to different civil procedures and may result in different outcomes than a trial by jury would have had, including results that could be less favorable to the plaintiff(s) in such an action.

 

Nevertheless, if this jury trial waiver provision is not permitted by applicable law, an action could proceed under the terms of the either agreement with a jury trial. No condition, stipulation or provision of the either agreement serves as a waiver by any member of a series or by our company of compliance with any substantive provision of the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated under those laws.

 

In addition, when the shares are transferred, the transferee is required to agree to all the same conditions, obligations and restrictions applicable to the shares or to the transferor with regard to ownership of the shares, that were in effect immediately prior to the transfer of the shares, including but not limited to those in the operating agreement and subscription agreement.

 

29

 

 

Our operating agreement and subscription agreement have forum selection provisions that requires that certain disputes be resolved in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, regardless of convenience or cost to shareholders.

 

Under our subscription agreement and under Section 15.08 of our operating agreement, shareholders are required to resolve disputes related to the governance of our company in the Court of Chancery located in the State of Delaware. The forum selection provision in our operating agreement applies to any suit, action, or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with our operating agreement, or the transactions authorized by the agreement, including that of the admission of shareholders to a series of our company. The forum selection provision in our subscription agreement applies to all actions or proceedings relating to the subscription agreement.

 

Our operating agreement and subscription agreement further provide that, should the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware not have jurisdiction over the matter, the suit, action, or proceeding may be brought in the appropriate federal or state court located in the State of Delaware. We intend for these forum selection provisions to also apply to claims brought under federal securities law. Our company acknowledges that, for claims arising under the Exchange Act, Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, requiring such matters to be heard in federal court. In contrast, Section 22 of the Securities Act provides for concurrent jurisdiction between federal and state courts for matters arising under the Securities Act.

 

The forum selection provisions in our operating agreement and subscription agreement may limit shareholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us our Managers, employees or agents, which may discourage lawsuits against us and such persons. The requirement that any action be heard in the Chancery Court of Delaware, or alternatively in a competent court in the State of Delaware, if applicable, may also create additional expense for any person contemplating an action against our company, or limit the access to information to undertake such an action, further discouraging lawsuits.

 

It is also possible that, notwithstanding the forum selection clauses included in our operating agreement and subscription agreement, a court could rule that such provisions are inapplicable or unenforceable. Alternatively, if a court were to find one or both provisions inapplicable to, or unenforceable in, an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

In addition, when the shares are transferred, the transferee is required to agree to all the same conditions, obligations and restrictions applicable to the shares or to the transferor with regard to ownership of the shares, that were in effect immediately prior to the transfer of the shares, including but not limited to those in the operating agreement and subscription agreement.

 

30

 

 

If our series limited liability structure is not respected, then investors may have to share in any liabilities of our company with all investors and not just those who hold the same series of interests as them.

 

Our company is structured as a Delaware series limited liability company that issues different series of interests for each underlying asset or group of underlying assets. Each series of interest will merely be a separate series and not a separate legal entity. Under the LLC Act, if certain conditions (as set forth in Section 18-215(b) of the LLC Act) 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 Delaware, 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 Delaware corporation law, and in the past certain jurisdictions have not honored such interpretation. If our series limited liability company structure is not respected, then investors may have to share any liabilities of our 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 LLC Act, it is possible a court could conclude that the methods used did not satisfy Section 18-215(b) of the LLC Act and thus potentially expose the assets of a series to the liabilities of another series of interests. 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 the series to the investors. In addition, we are not aware of any court case that has tested the limitations on inter-series liability provided by Section 18-215(b) 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 our company generally where the assets of such other series of interests or of our company generally are insufficient to meet our liabilities.

 

If any fees, costs and expenses of our company are not allocable to a specific series of interests, they will be borne proportionately across all of the series of interests. Although our Managing Member (with assistance from the Administrative Manager) will allocate fees, costs and expenses acting reasonably and in accordance with its allocation policy (see “The Company’s Business—Allocations of Expenses”), 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.

  

Possible changes in federal/local tax laws or the application of existing federal/local tax laws may result in significant variability in our results of operations and tax liability for the investor.

 

The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, is subject to change by Congress, and interpretations 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 an investment in any series of shares of our 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.

 

Furthermore, investors may reside in various tax jurisdictions throughout the world. Failure to assess or pay the correct amount of tax on a transaction may expose us to claims from tax authorities. 

 

31

 

 

DILUTION

 

Under our operating agreement, we have authority to issue an unlimited number of additional shares or other securities in each series. After your investment in this offering, the Managing Member may elect to: (i) sell additional shares in this or future public offerings (whether on Form 1-A or otherwise), (ii) issue equity interests in private offerings or (iii) issue shares for payment as compensation our Managers or third-parties. To the extent we issue additional shares in a series after your purchase shares of that series in this offering, your percentage ownership interest in that series will be diluted. In addition, depending upon the terms and pricing of any additional offerings and the value of our investments, you could also experience dilution in the book value and fair value of your shares.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION AND SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

 

Plan of Distribution

 

We are offering, on a best efforts basis, the shares (consisting of membership interests) of each of the series of our company in the “Series Offering Table” beginning on page 9 of this Offering Circular. The offering price for each series was determined by our Administrative Manager.

 

The minimum subscription by an investor is listed in the “Series Offering Table” and the maximum subscription by any investor is for interests representing 5% of the total interests of a particular series, although such minimum and maximum thresholds may be waived or modified by our Administrative Manager in its sole discretion.

 

For up to the first thirty days of an offering of a series, the Administrative Manager may choose, in its sole discretion, to open the offering of a series exclusively to members of the StartEngine OWNers bonus program. During this period, the entire offering of a series will be available to be purchased exclusively to members of the StartEngine OWNers bonus program. The StartEngine OWNers bonus program is a voluntary membership program offered by StartEngine Crowdfunding, Inc., whereby any member may get access to certain perks and benefits of offerings taking place through the StartEngine Platform. Further, membership does not create any requirements or obligations for members other than payment of the annual fee. Members enroll in the program for an annual fee of $275. Membership will auto renew every year. A member of the program can cancel their membership at any time. Once the member cancels, their membership will expire on the next anniversary of their membership. For purposes of an offering of a series where the Administrative Manager makes the offering exclusive to members for a period of time, any person who is a member of the StartEngine OWNers bonus program at the time of investment would be determined to be eligible to invest as a member of the OWNers bonus program.

 

There will be a separate closing with respect to each offering. The closing of an offering will occur on the earliest to occur of (i) the date subscriptions for the maximum number of shares offered for a series have been accepted or (ii) a date determined by our Administrative Manager in its sole discretion, provided that subscriptions for the minimum number of shares offered for a series have been accepted. If closing has not occurred, an offering shall be terminated upon (i) the date which is one year from the date such offering circular or amendment thereof, as applicable, is qualified by the Commission, which period may be extended with respect to a particular series by an additional six months by the Administrative Manager in its sole discretion, or (ii) any date on which our Administrative Manager elects to terminate the offering for a particular series in its sole discretion. In the case where the company enters into a purchase option agreement, an offering may never be launched, or a closing may not occur, in the case the company does not exercise the purchase option before the purchase option agreement’s expiration date, or the expiration date is not extended.

 

StartEngine Assets LLC (our Managing Member and Administrative Manager) may purchase shares offered in a series’ offering for the same price as all other investors, subject to the same minimum and maximum investment thresholds as other investors in that offering, although such minimum and maximum thresholds may be waived or modified by StartEngine Assets in its sole discretion.

 

The company is initially offering its securities in all states other than Florida and Texas. The company may choose to make the appropriate filings to become an “issuer-dealer” in these states, or to record company officers as agents, in which case it will start to sell in those states. In the event the company makes arrangements with a broker-dealer (including an affiliated broker-dealer) to sell into these or other states, it will file a Supplement to this Offering Circular.

 

The company’s Offering Circular will be furnished to prospective investors in this offering via download 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on the startengine.com website.

Process of Subscribing

 

After the Commission has qualified the offering statement, we will accept tenders of funds to purchase the shares of series of our company. Prospective investors who submitted non-binding indications of interest during the “test the waters” period will receive an automated message from us indicating that the offering for a particular series is open for investment.

 

Provided that subscriptions for the minimum number of interests offered for a series have been received, the company may close on investments on a “rolling” basis (so not all investors will receive their shares on the same date). However, to the extent a series has the same minimum and maximum, the company will undertake a single closing for investors in that series. Investors may subscribe by tendering funds by wire, credit, or debit card or ACH transfer to the escrow account to be set up by the Escrow Agent. Tendered funds will remain in escrow until closing has occurred. Upon closing, funds tendered by investors will be made available to the company for its use.

 

Investors will be required to complete a subscription agreement in order to invest in a particular series. The subscription agreement includes a representation by the investor to the effect that, if the investor is not an “accredited investor” as defined under securities law, the investor is investing an amount that does not exceed the greater of 10% of his or her annual income or 10% of your net worth (excluding the investor’s principal residence).

 

The subscription procedure is summarized as follows:

 

1.Go to the company’s page on www.startengine.com/assets and click on the “Invest Now” button;
2.Complete the online investment form;

3.Deliver funds directly by wire, debit card, credit card or electronic funds transfer via ACH to the specified account;
4.Once funds or documentation are received an automated AML check will be performed to verify the identity and status of the investor;
5.Once AML is verified, investor will electronically receive, review, execute and deliver to us a subscription agreement.

 

The company has entered into an Escrow Services Agreement with Prime Trust LLC (“Prime Trust” or the “Escrow Agent”). Prime Trust is a Nevada registered trust company that offers escrow services as well as an integrated technology platform for processing investment transactions. The company has agreed to pay Prime Trust: (i) technology transaction fee of $2.50 per for each subscription processed regardless if the company accepts the investment, (ii) $250 for escrow account set up fee, (iii) $25 per month for so long as the offering is being conducted, (iv) for investments over $2,000, $2 per domestic investor (individual) and $5 per domestic investor (entity) for anti-money laundering check (up to $60 for international investors (individuals) and $75 for international investors (entities)), (v) $3.00 per investor (one-time accounting fee upon receipt of funds), and (vi) any applicable fees for fund transfers (ACH $1, check $10, wire $15 or $35 for international). Each series will generally be responsible for fees due to the Escrow Agent, which are categorized as Offering Expenses.

 

Investor funds will be held by the Escrow Agent pending closing or termination of the offering.  All subscribers will be instructed by the company or its agents to transfer funds by wire, credit or debit card, or ACH transfer directly to the escrow account established for this offering. The company may terminate the offering for a particular series at any time for any reason at its sole discretion. Investors should understand that acceptance of their funds into escrow does not necessarily result in their receiving shares; escrowed funds may be returned.

 

Prime Trust is not participating as an underwriter or placement agent or sales agent of this offering and will not solicit any investment in the company, recommend the company’s securities or provide investment advice to any prospective investor, and no communication through any medium, including any website, should be construed as such, or distribute this Offering Circular or other offering materials to investors. The use of Prime Trust’s technology should not be interpreted and is not intended as an endorsement or recommendation by it of the company or this offering. All inquiries regarding this offering or escrow should be made directly to the company.

 

In the event that the company terminates the offering while investor funds are held in escrow, those funds will promptly be refunded to each investor without deduction or interest and in accordance with Rule 10b-9 under the Exchange Act.

 

33

 

 

No Selling Security holders

 

No securities are being sold for the account of security holders. All net proceeds of this offering will go to the company.

 

Transfer Agent and Registrar

 

The company has engaged StartEngine Secure LLC, a registered transfer agent with the SEC, who will serve as transfer agent to maintain shareholder information on a book-entry basis. StartEngine Secure LLC is an affiliate of our company and its Managers.

 

Provisions of Note in Our Subscription Agreement

 

While there is a separate subscription agreement that will be used in connection with each series’ offering, the same form of subscription agreement will be used for each series. Our “form” subscription agreement includes forum selection provisions that require any claims against the company based on the subscription agreement not arising under the federal securities laws to be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware. These forum selection provisions may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. The company has adopted these provisions to limit the time and expense incurred by its management to challenge any such claims. As a company with a small management team, this provision allows its officers not to lose a significant amount of time traveling to any particular forum so they may continue to focus on operations of the company.

 

Jury Trial Waiver

 

While there is a separate subscription agreement that will be used in connection with each series’ offering, the same form of subscription agreement will be used for each series. Our “form” subscription agreement includes forum selection and jury waiver provisions. See, “Securities Being Offered – Exclusive Jurisdiction” and “Securities Being Offered – Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury” and for more information on these provisions.

USE OF PROCEEDS TO ISSUER

 

The allocation of the net proceeds of each offering set forth below represents our intentions based upon our current plans and assumptions regarding industry and general economic conditions, our future revenues, if any, and expenditures. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend upon numerous factors, including market conditions, cash generated by our operations, business developments, and related rate of growth. The Managers of each series reserve the right to modify the use of proceeds based on the factors set forth below. Neither our company nor any series are expected to keep any of the proceeds from any offering. In the event that less than the maximum number of shares are sold in connection with any offering, our Administrative Manager may pay, and not seek reimbursement for, any Brokerage Fees and Acquisition Expenses.

Management of the Assets

 

·Insurance

 

Physical assets

We work with an insurance broker insure all physical assets during both transport and storage.

 

NFTs

There is currently no insurance available for NFTs, but we are working with our broker to eventually secure a standalone NFT policy. Presently, our Managing Member self-insures underlying NFTs on behalf of our company, as set forth in the operating agreement between our manager and each series holding an NFT. Our Managing Member agrees to fully insure underlying NFTs against any and all losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions (including due to theft) or our Managing Member’s negligence (e.g., inability to access or recover the wallet due to loss of the 12-word MetaMask seed phrase or a segment thereof).

 

Should traditional insurance become available, the cost of protecting such NFTs may be substantial and may vary from year to year depending on changes in the insurance rates for covering the underlying assets. If costs turn out to be higher than expected, this would impact the value of the series, the amount of distributions made to investors holding the series, potential proceeds from a sale of the related underlying NFT (if ever) and any capital proceeds returned to investors after paying for any outstanding liabilities, including, but not limited to, any outstanding balances under Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation.

 

·Storage

 

Physical assets

Once we acquire the asset, it will be insured and then transported and warehoused in a climate-controlled, highly secure location (assuming the acquired asset is not already in such a location).

 

NFTs

Underlying NFT’s are stored by StartEngine Crowdfunding's CEO using commercially reasonable measures in a MetaMask/multi-signature wallet. The 12-word MetaMask seed phrase which secures the wallet was split into five six-word segments and saved as handwritten copies only (no digital copy, and not digitally created).  To create a transfer from StartEngine Collectibles Fund I LLC to a potential purchaser the MetaMask/multi-signature wallet requires 3 six-word segments from any of the holders listed below. Segments will be held by certain officers of our Administrative Manager and its affiliates. Presently, only one officer has access to the wallet on a device under his control, and the wallet is accessible via “memorable password” saved as a handwritten copy only. Should this password be lost, the wallet can be recovered using the full 12-word seed phrase.

Series Art #PICASSO

 

The Asset

 

Series Art #PICASSO intends to purchase Pablo Picasso, Femme assise, 1922, pen and ink on paper, 11.3 x 8.8 inches. Pablo Picasso was a Spanish-born painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist and theater designer. Regarded as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, he is known for co-founding the Cubist movement, the invention of constructed sculpture, the co-invention of collage, and for the wide variety of styles that he helped develop and explore. Picasso's work is often categorized into periods. While the names of many of his later periods are debated, the most commonly accepted periods in his work are the Blue Period (1901–1904), the Rose Period (1904–1906), the African-influenced Period (1907–1909), Analytic Cubism (1909–1912), and Synthetic Cubism (1912–1919), also referred to as the Crystal period. Much of Picasso's work of the late 1910s and early 1920s is in a neoclassical style, and his work in the mid-1920s often has characteristics of Surrealism. His later work often combines elements of his earlier styles. The present work, Femme Assise, was executed in 1922 - 1923 and is an example of his neoclassical style. This work is unique and has been confirmed by the artist’s son, Claude Picasso, the current expert for the artist.

Most notably portrayed by Oscar-nominated actor Hugh Jackman, the character has played an important role in the Marvel cinematic universe.

THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

At StartEngine Collectibles Fund I LLC, we believe that alternative assets are capable of delivering quality returns to investors. However, investing in alternative assets can often require significant financial resources and significant knowledge about the underlying assets and the industry. Due to these high barriers to entry, access to investments in alternative assets have been restrained to a fraction of the global economy. Even those that do have access to top quality alternative investments are faced with high fees, lack of transparency, and significant operational overheads. With high transactional costs and low transaction volumes, investors in alternative assets often suffer from illiquidity, resulting in long holding periods that make such investments inaccessible for many investors.

 

We plan to democratize alternative asset investing by providing access, liquidity and transparency. For different assets classes we have and are gathering a team of individuals with knowledge and experience needed to select and actively manage the assets. Further, we will be utilizing the platform of our parent company, StartEngine Crowdfunding, Inc., to post our offerings under Regulation A to every day investors. Investing in our series will give investors access to alternative assets such as wine, copyright assets, and any other unique or alternative assets (which we call “collectible” assets) that we deem to be valuable.

 

History and Structure

 

StartEngine Collectibles Fund I LLC is a series limited liability company formed on October 14, 2020 pursuant to Section 18-215 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, or the LLC Act.

 

As a series limited liability company, title to our underlying assets will be held by, or for the benefit of, the applicable series of interests. We intend that each series of interests will own its own underlying assets, which will be works of art or other collectibles. A new series of interests will be issued for future art or collectibles or other alternative assets to be acquired by us.

 

Section 18-215(b) of the LLC Act provides that, if certain conditions are met (including that certain provisions are in the formation and governing documents of the series limited liability company, and if the records maintained for any such series account for the assets associated with such series separately from the assets of the limited liability company, or any other series), then the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular series shall be enforceable only against the assets of such series and not against the assets of the limited liability company generally or any other series. As such, the assets of a series include only the assets associated with that series and other related assets (e.g., cash reserves).

 

Members of our company

 

Members of our company include owners of shares of our company or shares of our series.

 

An investor who has purchased shares in one of our series in this offering will become an “Economic Member” of our company (as defined in our operating agreement).
