Regulatory Disclosures
Xebec does not solicit or make its services available to the public. The Content provided on or through the Site may include information regarding past and/or present investments managed by Xebec, its affiliates and/or its personnel. It should not be assumed that investments made in the future will be comparable in quality or performance to the investments described herein. Further, references to past and present investments should not be construed as a recommendation of any particular investment or security. Current and previous investments listed on the Site are not to be considered a complete list of all investments historically made by Xebec. The investments listed should not be assumed to have been profitable. Any past performance information on the Site is not necessarily indicative, or a guarantee, of future results.
Certain information contained on the Site constitutes “forward-looking statements.” All forward-looking statements represent only the intent and belief of Xebec as of the date such statements were made. None of Xebec or any of its affiliates (i) assumes any responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of any forward-looking statements or (ii) undertakes any obligation to disseminate any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement contained on the Site to reflect any change in their expectation with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

Xebec is registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as an investment adviser, which does not imply a certain level or skill or training.
Securities Offerings
Private placements of securities offered on the Site have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, in reliance on certain exemptive provisions thereunder, including (as applicable) Regulation D and Rule 506, and/or Regulation S. Securities sold through private placements are restricted and not publicly traded, and are therefore illiquid. Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) nor any state securities commission or other regulatory authority has approved, passed upon or endorsed the merits of any offering on this Site. Securities sold through private placements are not publicly traded and, therefore, are illiquid unless registered with the SEC. Additionally, securities are expected to be subject to restrictions on resale or transfer including holding period requirements. Investing in private placements requires high risk tolerance, low liquidity need, and long-term commitments. Users must be able to afford to lose their entire investment. Xebec investment opportunities are not FDIC insured, may lose value, and there is no bank guarantee.
Investment overviews on the Site contain summaries of the purpose and principal business terms of the Xebec offered investment opportunities. Such summaries are intended for informational purposes only and do not purport to be complete, and each is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed discussions contained in the investor subscription document package relating to each such investment opportunity. The information contained in the Site has been prepared by Xebec without reference to any particular individuals investment requirements or financial situation. Any decision to invest shall be based solely on your own consideration and analysis of the risks involving a particular Xebec offering and is made at your own risk. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for determining the suitability of an investment or strategy and accept the risks associated with such decisions, which include the risk of losing the entire amount of your investment. Xebec strongly encourages potential investors to consult with licensed professional tax, legal and financial advisors before making any investment.
You may not become a beneficial owner of 20% or more of any issuer’s outstanding voting equity securities (an “Issuer Covered Person”) if you or certain beneficial owners are or have been subject to certain “bad actor” disqualifying events described in Rule 506(d) (a “Disqualifying Event”). You represent that you and any beneficial owners are not subject to a Disqualifying Event and that you and any beneficial owners will promptly notify Xebec in writing should any Disqualifying Events become applicable. Xebec is not liable or responsible for making Rule 506(e) disclosures.

Consent to Electronic Transactions and Disclosures
Because Xebec provides much of its information via the Internet, it is necessary for you to consent to transact business with us online and electronically.

Xebec generally receives all payments, and is striving to make all disbursements, through electronic funds transfers (ACH transfers) using the bank (or other financial institution) account information you provide to us. You authorize such bank or other financial account to pay any amounts described herein, and authorize Xebec to make any and all investment disbursements, to such account. You agree to provide Xebec updated information regarding your bank or other account upon Xebec’s request and at any time that the information earlier provided is no longer valid.
As part of doing business with Xebec, you must also consent to our giving you certain disclosures electronically, either via our Site or to the email address you provide to us. By agreeing to the Terms of Use, you agree to receive electronically all documents, communications, notices, contracts, and agreements, including any IRS Form 1099 or other tax forms, schedules or information statements, arising from or relating to your registration as an investor on our Site, any investments you may make, your use of this Site, and the servicing of any investment you may make (each, a “Disclosure”), from Xebec, or any service provider either of us may use. A IRS Form 1099 refers to any Form, Schedule or information statement, including corrections of such documents, required to be provided pursuant to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service rules and regulations and that may be provided electronically (each, an “IRS Form 1099”). The decision to do business with Xebec electronically is yours. This document informs you of your rights concerning Disclosures.
Your consent to receive Disclosures and transact business electronically, and our agreement to do so, applies to any transactions to which such Disclosures relate. Your consent will remain in effect for so long as you are a User and, if you are no longer a User, will continue until such a time as all Disclosures relevant to transactions that occurred while you were a User have been made.
You may not withdraw such consent as long as you have outstanding any investments made through the Site. If you have no outstanding investments made through the site and wish to withdraw consent to doing business electronically, we will terminate your registered user account with us.
You also expressly consent to receiving calls and messages, including auto-dialed and pre-recorded message calls, and SMS messages (including text messages) from us, our affiliates, marketing partners, agents and others calling at their request or on their behalf, at any telephone numbers that you have provided or may provide in the future (including any cellular telephone numbers). Your cellular or mobile telephone provider will charge you according to the type of plan you carry.
If you are accessing our site and the Disclosures electronically via a mobile device (such as a smart phone, tablet, and the like), in addition to the above requirements you must make sure that you have software on your mobile device that allows you to print and save the Disclosures presented to you during the application process.
