This Investor Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of the date set forth below by and between the undersigned (“Bidder” or “you”) and aShareX Series LLC, a Delaware series limited liability company (the “Company” or “we” or “us” or “our”). By executing this Agreement, you are indicating your intent to participate as a Fractional Bidder in an offering (the “Offering”) to commence at the place, time and date listed in the Annex A. You will participate by utilizing the proprietary AShareX Platform licensed to the Company by aShareX, Inc. If you submit a winning bid for the Series Asset (a “Winning Bid”), you agree to purchase Class A Shares (the “Shares”) to be issued to you in the Series we have formed and which is identified in the Annex A (the “Series”) upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the Offering for the Shares. You will be so notified by the Company (by email and through the Investor Platform through which you are a registered user), and such notification will advise you of (i) the amount you are required to fund, and (ii) the number of Shares you are purchasing.
We reserve the right to reschedule or cancel the Offering at any time. No money or other consideration is being solicited at this time, and if sent in response, will not be accepted. No offer to buy the securities can be accepted and no part of the purchase price can be received until an Offering Statement with respect to the Shares to be sold in the Offering is qualified with the SEC (the “Qualification Date”), and any such offer may be withdrawn or revoked, without obligation or commitment of any kind, at any time before the Qualification Date. Any offer or bid you make with respect to the Offering prior to the qualification of the Offering Statement will be only an indication of interest and involves no obligation or commitment of any kind. Any bid you make during the pre-bidding process following the Qualification Date (once affirmatively confirmed) or during the Offering will be deemed accepted upon determination that it is a Winning Bid.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CLOSELY AS THESE TERMS ARE BINDING ON YOU
1. Review of Documentation. You agree that you have reviewed the Company’s Bidding Rules and the form of Subscription Agreement, both available on the Investor Platform as of the date of this Agreement, and that, if you submit a Winning Bid, you agree to (i) execute a Subscription Agreement in substantially the same form as on the Investor Platform to subscribe for and purchase the Shares, and (ii) fund the purchase price for the Shares within seven days of receiving the notice. You are not entitled to any Shares until you have completed these steps. Please read the Subscription Agreement carefully as it contains representations, warranties and covenants that will become legally binding on you should you submit a Winning Bid by virtue of incorporating those provisions by reference in this Agreement. Your obligations hereunder are irrevocable should you submit a Winning Bid (subject to any further requirements for qualification with the SEC) and the Company accepts your Subscription Agreement. If you fail to comply with such obligations, the Company may exercise any and all available legal or equitable remedies available to it to recover damages for your breach and may institute arbitration proceedings pursuant to Section 5 below.
2. Description of Offering. The Offering is described in the Preliminary or Final Offering Circular that is, or will be, available through the Investor Platform, as well as on the SEC ▇▇▇▇▇ website at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇. The Company will post the Final Offering Circular as promptly as possible following its qualification with the SEC. You confirm that you have read the Preliminary and/or Final Offering Circular, the Company’s Offering Statement and the exhibits attached thereto, including the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement and the Series Designation for the Series (together, the “Operating Agreement”), and that upon the execution of your Subscription Agreement and the performance of your obligations thereunder, you will become a Member of the Company upon the Closing of the Offering and will be bound by the terms of the Operating Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Operating Agreement.

3. Binding Obligations. If you participate in the pre-bidding process that may be offered by the Company (“Pre-Bidding”), your bid will become irrevocable once affirmatively confirmed by you following the Qualification Date. Bids accepted during the Offering are irrevocable. However, no bid will become binding unless or until an Offering Statement is qualified pursuant to Regulation A with the SEC which is expected to occur approximately 48 hours prior to the commencement of the Offering. If the Offering Statement is not qualified by the time of the Offering, the Offering will, at the Company’s option, be cancelled or held only for 100% Bidders (with bids previously submitted by Fractional Bidders not valid and automatically revoked). In certain circumstances, we may be required to submit an amendment to our Offering Statement for qualification with the SEC before we may accept subscriptions for Shares. In such circumstances, any Winning Bid you submit will only be binding to the extent we obtain such further qualification. We have the right to reject or cancel your subscription, in whole or in part, whether or not we consummate the Offering. If we reject or cancel your subscription, we will refund to you amounts paid relating to such portion of the subscription that is rejected or cancelled, without interest. We will deduct third party processing fees, if any, from amounts refunded.
4. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. In addition to the foregoing, you represent, warrant and covenant as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing of the Offering should it occur that:

b. If you submit a Winning Bid, you can and will make each of the representations and warranties contained in Section 3 of the Subscription Agreement related to your subscription for the Shares, including those relating to investment intent, the Patriot Act, Anti-Money Laundering and the OFAC.

d.

In this connection, you acknowledge that the Company may elect to (i) cancel the Offering or allow only 100% Bidders to bid in the Offering if the Offering Statement is not qualified prior to the time of the Offering, (ii) not accept your Winning Bid subsequent to the Offering if it determines you are not a Qualified Purchaser or otherwise ineligible to hold Shares in the Company commensurate with your fractional share of the Acquisition Cost, (iii) terminate the Offering prior to or subsequent to the Offering for any reason, including those events described in the Preliminary or Final Offering Circular providing for such termination, or (iv) suspend or stop the Offering and cancel all previously submitted bids if there is force majeure event of any kind, including a malfunction with the AShareX Platform or the communication link to the actual Offering.
