Investment.com Collection LLC, is a Delaware series limited liability company (which we refer to as “we,” “us,” “our” or “Company”) that has been formed to facilitate investment in individual real estate and business assets that will be owned by individual series of the Company. Each individual Series will, directly or through a wholly-owned subsidiary, hold a specific asset into which investors can invest via purchase of Series Interests for that Series. We are offering Series Interests of each of the Series of the Company with a status of “Open” in the “Series Offering Table” beginning on page 1 of this offering circular.

Series Interests will be sold for $1.00 each and the minimum investment for any investor is $100. For more information on the securities offered hereby, please see the item titled “Securities Being Offered” on page 28.

All of the series of the Company 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 “Series Interests” and each, individually, as a “Series Interest.”

The sale of newly offered Series Interests will commence once this offering circular, as amended, is qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission” or “SEC”). This offering will terminate at the earlier of (i) the date at which the maximum offering amount of all Series Interests has been sold, (ii) the date at which the offering is earlier terminated by the Company, in our Manager’s sole discretion or (iii) the date that is three years from this offering being initially qualified by the SEC.

The Company may undertake one or more closings for each Series on a rolling basis after the minimum offering amount for that Series, if any, is reached and, after each closing, funds tendered by investors will be available to such Series.

This offering is being made pursuant to Tier 2 of Regulation A following the Form 1-A offering circular disclosure format. There is no market for our Series Interests and none is likely to develop in the future – investors should expect to hold their Series Interests indefinitely.

Generally, no sale may be made to you in this offering if the aggregate purchase price you pay is more than 10% of the greater of your annual income or your net worth. Different rules apply to accredited investors and non-natural persons. Before making any representation that your investment does not exceed applicable thresholds, we encourage you to review Rule 251(d)(2)(i)(C) of Regulation A. For general information on investing, we encourage you to refer to www.investor.gov.

This offering is highly speculative and these securities involve a high degree of risk and should be considered only by persons who can afford the loss of their entire investment. See “Risk Factors” on page 4 for a description of some of the risks that should be considered before investing in our Series Interests. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

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

● If the Company’s series limited liability company structure is not respected, then investors may have to share any liabilities of the Company or a Series with all investors and not just those who hold the same Series Interests as them.

● Each Series will rely on its Asset Manager, Investment.com AM, to manage its Underlying Assets.

● If we fail to manage our growth, we may not have access to sufficient personnel and other resources to operate our business and our results, financial condition and ability to make distributions to investors may suffer.

● If Investment.com fails to attract and retain its key personnel, the Company may not be able to achieve its anticipated level of growth and its business could suffer.

● There is competition for time among the various entities and Series sharing the same management team.

● The Company has limited operating history for investors to evaluate.

● Possible changes in federal tax laws make it impossible to give certainty to the tax treatment of any Series Interests.

● Persons who provide services to the Company may also provide services to our Manager or affiliates thereof. Such service providers may be required to terminate representation of the Company if conflicts of interests arise that cannot be resolved or waived.

● There is no public trading market for our Series Interests. There are also transfer restrictions contained in our operating agreement. It will thus be difficult for an investor to sell Series Interests purchased from the Company.

● Substantial actual and potential conflicts of interest exist between our investors and our Series Interests or the interests of our Manager and our respective affiliates

● The termination of our Manager is generally limited to cause, which may make it difficult or costly to end our (or a Series’) relationship with our Manager.

● Potential conflicts of interest may arise among our Manager and its affiliates, on the one hand, and the Company and our investors, on the other hand.

● We may not be able to control a Series’ operating costs or revenues, causing a Series’ results of operations to be adversely affected.

● Our investors do not elect or vote on our Manager and have limited ability to influence decisions regarding the businesses of the Series.

● The Series Interest holders will have limited voting rights.

● Any Series may be unable to generate sufficient cash flows from its operations and capital transactions to make distributions to holders of interests at any time in the future.

● Failure of each Series to be classified as a separate entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes could adversely affect the timing, amount and character of distributions to a holder of interests.

● The failure of a Series to qualify as a REIT would subject it to U.S. federal income tax and applicable state and local taxes, which would reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to holders of our Series Interests.

● You may have to hold your investment for an indefinite period.

● The Company may not raise sufficient funds to achieve its business objectives.

● The Company’s management has full discretion as to the use of proceeds from the offering.

● There is currently no trading market for the Company’s securities.

● The purchase prices for the Series Interests have been arbitrarily determined.

● The Company’s real estate and real estate-related assets will be subject to the risks typically associated with real estate.

● We face possible risks associated with natural disasters and the physical effects of climate change, which may include more frequent or severe storms, hurricanes, flooding, rising sea levels, shortages of water, droughts and wildfires, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

● The underlying value and performance of any asset will fluctuate with general and local economic conditions.

● The markets in which the Company participates are competitive and, if it does not compete effectively, its operating results could be harmed.

● Lawsuits may arise involving the Company or a Series resulting in lower cash distributions to investors.

● Costs imposed pursuant to governmental laws and regulations may reduce the Company’s net income and the cash available for distributions to its investors.

● Uninsured losses or excessively expensive premiums for insurance coverage could reduce a Series’ cash flows and the return on investment.

● The Company’s Operating Agreement and Subscription Agreement each include a forum selection provision, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action against the Company.

● Investors in this offering may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the Subscription Agreement or Operating Agreement, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action under these Agreements.

● Persons who provide services to the Company may also provide services to our Manager or affiliates thereof. Such service providers may be required to terminate representation of the Company if conflicts of interests arise that cannot be resolved or waived.

● Actual or anticipated epidemics, pandemics, outbreaks, or other public health crises may adversely affect the Company’s business.

SUMMARY

In this offering statement (“Offering Statement”) of which this offering circular (“Offering Circular”) forms a part, the terms “Investment.com Collection LLC” “Investment.com Collection,” “we,” “us, “our,” the “Company” and similar terms refer to Investment.com Collection LLC, a Delaware series limited liability company; “Investment.com” and “Manager” refer to the Company’s parent, Investment.com, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context indicates otherwise; “Investment.com AM” refers to Investment.com AM LLC, a subsidiary of Investment.com and the Asset Manager for the assets held or to be held by the Series. This summary highlights information contained elsewhere and does not contain all of the information that you should consider in making your investment decision. To understand this offering fully, you should carefully read the entire Offering Circular, including the section entitled “Risk Factors,” before making a decision to invest in our securities.

The Company

Investment.com is an investment platform that facilitates investment in and ownership of fractionalized interests in real estate and business assets. Investment.com Collection LLC is the vehicle through which such investments will initially be made. An investment in the Company entitles the investor to its share of the potential benefits normally associated with direct ownership of our assets without the burdens of the due diligence, significant capital outlay, management, and oversight generally associated with ownership of such assets; thereby opening the investment in such assets to the general public and not just a select group of high-net-worth individuals and accredited investors.

The Company intends to establish separate Series for each asset to be acquired by the Company. It is not anticipated that any Series would acquire any assets other than the asset for which the applicable Series was created (the “Underlying Asset(s)”). Ownership of a Series Interest in a Series is for that Series only and does not represent ownership in the Company or any other Series.

Investment.com AM, a subsidiary of Investment.com, will serve as the asset manager responsible for managing each Series’ Underlying Assets (the “Asset Manager”). Investment.com, Inc. will serve as the managing member (“Manager”) responsible for the day-to-day management of the Company and each Series.

Series LLC Structure

The Company was formed in Delaware on October 7, 2022 as a series limited liability company. The initial member of the Company and each Series will be Investment.com, Inc., who will also own at least 0.1% of each Series by the closing for such Series. The Company will establish a separate Series for each Underlying Asset. Once Investment.com identifies an Underlying Asset and agrees to a price with the sellers, it or one of its controlled affiliates will enter into a purchase agreement for the asset. Generally, Investment.com expects to assign the contract to the relevant Series for the direct purchase of the asset by the Series; however, there may be circumstances or timing considerations that result in Investment.com or one of its wholly owned subsidiaries acquiring the assets directly from the third-party seller for further sale to the Series once sufficient funding has been obtained.

1

In cases where the Series purchases the Underlying Asset directly from a third-party seller, it would use the proceeds of the offering for that Series to purchase the Underlying Assets and may finance a portion of the purchase price with third party. If the Series does not obtain sufficient funds prior to closing, Investment.com or an affiliate may provide a loan to the Series, upon the terms described under “The Company’s Business – Intended Business Process” below, to finance all or part of the purchase price of the Underlying Asset. Such loan would be repaid (with interest) to Investment.com by the applicable Series with the proceeds of its offering, with any remaining proceeds being used in accordance with the “Use of Proceeds” below detailed.

If Investment.com or one of its affiliates purchases the Underlying Asset directly, then, after the relevant Series has obtained sufficient financing, that Series would purchase the asset for an amount equal to the original purchase price (including closing costs) plus holding costs, improvement costs and other expenses actually incurred by Investment.com prior to the sale to the Series.

We intend that each Series that holds income producing real estate interests will be taxed as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT), including Series 1 – The Blue Crab. For Series that will not be taxed as a REIT, we intend such Series to by taxed as corporations. To assist each of the eligible Series, including Series 1 – The Blue Crab, in qualifying as a REIT, our Operating Agreement provides that generally no person may own, or be deemed to own by virtue of the attribution provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), either more than 9.8% in value or number of Series Interests, whichever is more restrictive, of our outstanding equity capital, or 9.8% in value or number of Series Interests, whichever is more restrictive, of our Series Interests or any class or series of the outstanding interests. Our Manager may, in its sole discretion, waive the 9.8% ownership limit with respect to a particular holder of Series Interests.

Distributions

We intend, but are not obligated, to distribute 100% of the Free Cash Flows of Series 1 – The Blue Crab (generally income, less all expenses paid, fees paid to management, indebtedness, and reserves as determined by our Manager) at such intervals as determined by our Manager, in its sole discretion, which distributions will include distributions to our Manager and its affiliates to the extent they hold Series Interests in Series 1 – The Blue Crab.

Compensation Paid to our Manager and its Affiliates

Investment.com Service Fee: A portion of the proceeds from each offering will be paid to our Manager as a service fee. The service fee represents a fee payable in connection with the search and negotiation of the Underlying Asset purchase and coordination of the work needed to prepare the Underlying Asset for operation. Our Manager determines this fee and sets the amount between 10-15% of the contractual purchase price of the relevant Underlying Asset acquired by the Series plus, for real estate assets 10-15% of the anticipated costs of repairs and furnishings (but not capital expenditures) required to prepare the property for listing and rent. For Series 1 – The Blue Crab, the service fee is $81,147.50.

Management Fees: On a quarterly basis beginning on the first quarter end date following the initial closing date of the issuance of Series Interests, the Series will pay the Manager a management fee, payable quarterly in arrears, equal to 0.25% (1% annualized) of Asset Value as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter. “Asset Value” at any date means the fair market value of assets in the Series representing the purchase price that a willing buyer having all relevant knowledge would pay a willing seller for such assets in an arm’s length transaction, determined by the Manager in its sole discretion. We may, but are not obligated to, obtain a third-party valuation of the assets of the Series to determine “Asset Value.”

Asset Management Fees: Each Series with Investment.com AM LLC as Asset Manager will pay Investment.com AM monthly, an asset management fee equal to a percentage of the Gross Receipts received by the Series during the immediately preceding month, which percentage will be set by our Manager. These fees are expected to range from 25% to 40% of the Gross Receipts of the Series and with respect to Series 1 – The Blue Crab, will be equal to 25%. “Gross Receipts” means gross income derived from all sources, which for real property assets includes, but is not limited to, (i) receipts from the rental of the Underlying Assets; (ii) receipts from rental escalations, late charges and/or cancellation fees (iii) receipts from tenants for reimbursable operating expenses; (iv) receipts from concessions granted or goods or services provided in connection with the Underlying Assets or to the tenants or prospective tenants; (v) other miscellaneous operating receipts; and (vi) proceeds from rent or business interruption insurance, excluding (A) tenants’ security or damage deposits until the same are forfeited by the person making such deposits; (B) property damage insurance proceeds; and (C) any award or payment made by any governmental authority in connection with the exercise of any right of eminent domain. See “Business Description – Asset Management Agreements with Investment.com AM.”

These fees were determined internally without any independent assessment of comparable market fees. As a result, they may be higher than those available from unaffiliated third parties.

Other Costs and Expenses; Reimbursements

Investment.com will initially be responsible for all offering expenses and will be reimbursed by the Series through the proceeds of the Series offering for offering expenses actually incurred. In general, these costs include legal, accounting, escrow, underwriting, filing and compliance costs, as applicable, related to the offering. If not otherwise available for payment out offering proceeds, Investment.com will also initially be responsible for the Series’ acquisition expenses and the Series will reimburse our Manager for such costs as well as for certain other costs. To facilitate the foregoing, our Manager has advanced the Company $1,000,000.

In addition, each Series will be responsible for the costs and expenses attributable to the activities of the Company related to the Series including, but not limited to:

●	fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the management of the Underlying Assets and preparing any reports and accounts of the Series, including, but not limited to, audits of the Series’ annual financial statements, tax filings and the circulation of reports to investors;
●	insurance premiums or expenses;
●	withholding or transfer taxes imposed on the Company or the Series or any of the members;
●	governmental fees imposed on the capital of the Company or the Series;
●	legal fees and costs (including settlement costs) arising in connection with any litigation or regulatory investigation instituted against the Company, the Series or a\the Asset Manager or Manager in connection with the affairs of the Company or the Series, or relating to legal advice directly relating to the Company’s or the Series’ legal affairs;
●	fees, costs and expenses of a third-party registrar and transfer agent appointed by the manager in connection with a series;
●	indemnification payments;
●	costs, fees, or payments related to interest or financing expenses for the Series;
●	potential HOA or association fees related to the Underlying Assets;
●	costs of any third parties engaged by the Manager in connection with the operations of the Company or the Series; and
●	any similar expenses that may be determined to be operating expenses, as determined by the Manager in its reasonable discretion.
	If any fees, costs and expenses of the Company are not allocable to a specific Series, they will be borne proportionately across all of the Series (which may include future Series to be issued). The Manager will allocate fees, costs and expenses acting reasonably and in accordance with its allocation policy. See “Business Description – Allocations of Expenses.”

Transferability

Our Manager may refuse a transfer by an interest holder of its Series Interest in a Series if such transfer would result in (a) there being more than 2,000 beneficial owners in such Series or more than 500 beneficial owners that are not “accredited investors,” (b) the assets of a series being deemed plan assets for purposes of ERISA, (c) such interest holder holding in excess of the ownership limitations established for that Series, (d) a change of U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Company and/or a Series, (e) the Company, any Series, our Manager, or its affiliates being subject to additional regulatory requirements, or (f) violation of the Company’s ownership limitations. Furthermore, as the interests are not registered under the Securities Act, transfers of interests may only be effected pursuant to exemptions under the Securities Act and as permitted by applicable state securities laws. See “Description of the Securities Being Offered–Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer” for more information.

This written communication is not intended to be “written advice,” as defined in Circular 230 published by the U.S. Treasury Department

RISK FACTORS

The Series Interests offered hereby are highly speculative in nature, involve a high degree of risk and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment. There can be no assurance that our investment objectives will be achieved or that a secondary market will ever develop for the interests. The risks described in this section should not be considered an exhaustive list of the risks that prospective investors should consider before investing in the interests. Prospective investors should obtain their own legal and tax advice prior to making an investment in the interests and should be aware that an investment in the interests may be exposed to other risks of an exceptional nature from time to time. Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently more risky than more developed companies. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to invest. The following considerations are among those that should be carefully evaluated before making an investment in Series Interests.

4

Risks Relating to the Structure, Operation and Performance of the Company

An investment in an offering constitutes only an investment in that Series and not in the Company or any Underlying Asset. A purchase of Series Interests in a Series does not constitute an investment in either the Company or an Underlying Asset directly, or in any other Series Interest. This results in limited voting rights of the investor, which are solely related to a particular Series, and are further limited by the Operating Agreement, of the Company, described further herein. Investors will have limited voting rights. Thus, the Manager and the Asset Manager retain significant control over the management of the Company, each Series and the Underlying Assets.

Furthermore, because the Series Interests in a Series do not constitute an investment in the Company as a whole, holders of the Series Interests in a Series are not expected to receive any economic benefit from, or be subject to the liabilities of, the assets of any other Series. In addition, the economic interest of a holder in a Series will not be identical to owning a direct undivided interest in an Underlying Asset because, among other things, the Managing member and Asset Manager will make most decisions relating to the Underlying Asset, the LLC Manager will receive fees based on asset value of all assets held, and the Asset Manager will receive fees based series revenues determined on a series by series basis based on assets to be held by any series.

Liability of investors between Series may not be honored. The Company is structured as a Delaware series limited liability company that issues a separate Series Interests for specific Underlying Assets. Each Series will merely be a separate Series and not a separate legal entity. Under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (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 Series Interests in one Series is segregated from the liability of investors holding Series Interests in another Series and the assets of one Series are not available to satisfy the liabilities of other Series.

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 the Company’s series limited liability company structure is not respected, then investors may have to share any liabilities of the Company with all investors and not just those who hold the same Series Interests as them 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. The consequence of this is that investors may have to bear higher than anticipated expenses which would adversely affect the value of their Series Interests or the likelihood of any distributions being made by a particular Series to its investors. Further, if the series structure is not respected, it could effect taxation of the Company, as the Company as whole may not qualify for REIT classification like a single Series might.

In addition, the Company is 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 should be applied to meet the liabilities of the other Series or the liabilities of the Company generally where the assets of such other Series or of the Company generally are insufficient to meet its liabilities.

If any fees, costs and expenses of the Company are not allocable to a specific Series, they will be borne proportionately across all of the Series (which may include future Series to be issued). Although the Manager will allocate fees, costs and expenses acting reasonably and in accordance with its allocation policy (see “Description of the Business – Allocations of Expenses” section), there may be situations where it is difficult to allocate fees, costs and expenses to a specific Series and therefore, there is a risk that a Series may bear a proportion of the fees, costs and expenses for a service or product for which another Series received a disproportionately high benefit.

Each of the Company’s Series will hold an interest in a single Underlying Asset, a non-diversified investment. We intend for each of our Series to own and operate a single Underlying Asset and as a result of this non-diversified investment strategy. Each Series’ return on its investment will depend on the revenues generated by such Underlying Asset and the appreciation of the value of the asset over time. These, in turn, are determined by such factors as national and local economic cycles and conditions, financial markets and the economy, competition and government regulation (such as tax and building code charges). The value of an Underlying Asset may decline substantially after a Series purchases it.

5

Each Series will rely on its Asset Manager, Investment.com AM, to manage each Underlying Asset. Following the acquisition of any Underlying Asset, the Underlying Asset will be managed by Investment.com AM, a subsidiary of Investment.com. In addition, in exchange for its asset management, Investment.com AM will be entitled to fees of 25%-40% of revenues from each Series, determined on Series by Series basis based on asset to be held by any Series. Any compensation arrangements will be determined by Investment.com sitting on both sides of the table and will not be an arm’s length transaction.

If we fail to manage our growth, we may not have access to sufficient personnel and other resources to operate our business and our results, financial condition and ability to make distributions to investors may suffer. We intend to establish additional Series and acquire additional assets in the future. As we do so, we will be increasingly reliant on the resources of the Manager and Investment.com AM to manage our Underlying Assets and the Company. Currently, Investment.com operates with a small staff of four people and may need to hire additional staff. If its resources are not adequate to manage our Underlying Assets effectively, our results, financial condition and ability to make distributions to investors may suffer.

If Investment.com fails to attract and retain its key personnel, the Company may not be able to achieve its anticipated level of growth and its business could suffer. The Company’s future depends, in part, on Investment.com’s ability to attract and retain key personnel. Its future also depends on the continued contributions of the executive officers and other key personnel of Investment.com, each of whom would be difficult to replace.

In particular, Chris Sasso, the Chief Executive Officer of Investment.com, is critical to the management of the Company’s business and operations and the development of its strategic direction. The loss of the services of Mr. Sasso or other executive officers or key personnel of Investment.com, and the process to replace any of those key personnel would involve significant time and expense and may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of the Company’s business objectives.

There is competition for time among the various entities sharing the same management team. Currently, Investment.com is the Manager of Investment.com Collection and each Series, and Investment.com AM is the Asset Manager for each Series. Investment.com Collection, LLC expects to create more Series in the future as additional attractive properties or business opportunities are identified. It is foreseeable that at certain times the various Series will be competing for time from the management team.

The Company has limited operating history for investors to evaluate. The Company and each Series were recently formed and have not generated any revenues and have no operating history upon which prospective investors may evaluate their performance. No guarantee can be given that the Company or any Series will achieve their investment objectives, the value of any Underlying Assets will increase or that any Underlying Assets will be successfully monetized.

Possible changes in federal tax laws make it impossible to give certainty to the tax treatment of any Series Interests. The Code is subject to change by Congress, and interpretations of the Code may be modified or affected by judicial decisions, by the Treasury Department through changes in regulations and by the Internal Revenue Service through its audit policy, announcements, and published and private rulings. Although significant changes to the tax laws historically have been given prospective application, no assurance can be given that any changes made in that law affecting an investment in any Series of the Company would be limited to prospective effect.

For instance, prior to effectiveness of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, an exchange of the Series Interests of one Series for another might have been a non-taxable ‘like-kind exchange’ transaction, while transactions would only qualify for that treatment with respect to real property. 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.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include a going concern opinion. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. We are newly formed and have not generated revenue from operations. We will require additional capital until revenue from operations are sufficient to cover operational costs. There are no assurances that we will be able to raise capital on acceptable terms. If we are unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned development and operations, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

If the Company does not successfully dispose of Underlying Assets, you may have to hold your investment for an indefinite period. The determination of whether to dispose of the Underlying Assets associated with any Series is entirely at the discretion of the Company. Even if the Company decides to dispose of such Underlying Assets, the Company cannot guarantee that it will be able to dispose of them at a favorable price to investors.

Competition with other parties for investments may reduce the Company’s profitability. The Company will compete with other entities engaged in real estate, financial and business investment, including financial institutions, many of which have greater resources than the Company does. Larger entities may enjoy significant competitive advantages that result from, among other things, a lower cost of capital. Such competition could make it more difficult for the Company to obtain future funding, which could affect the Company’s growth.

Potential breach of the security measures of our investment platform could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The highly automated nature of the investment platform through which potential investors acquire interests may make it an attractive target and potentially vulnerable to cyber-attacks, computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins or similar disruptions. While we intend to take commercially reasonable measures to protect our confidential information and maintain appropriate cybersecurity, the security measures of the investment platform, the Company, our Manager or our service providers could be breached. Any accidental or willful security breaches or other unauthorized access could cause confidential information to be stolen and used for criminal purposes or have other harmful effects. Security breaches or unauthorized access to confidential information could also expose us to liability related to the loss of the information, time-consuming and expensive litigation and negative publicity.

Non-compliance with certain securities regulations may result in the liquidation and winding up of the Company. We are not registered and will not be registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“Investment Company Act”), and neither our Manager nor its managers is or will be registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (“Investment Advisers Act”), and thus the Series Interests do not have the benefit of the protections of the Investment Company Act or the Investment Advisers Act. We and our Manager have taken the position that the underlying assets are not “securities” within the meaning of the of the Investment Company Act or the Investment Advisers Act, and thus our assets will comprise of less than 40% investment securities under the Investment Company Act and our Manager and our Asset Manager will not be advising with respect to securities under the Investment Advisers Act. This position, however, is based upon applicable case law that is inherently subject to judgments and interpretation. If we were to be required to register under the Investment Company Act or our Manager were to be required to register under the Investment Advisers Act, it could have a material and adverse impact on the results of operations and expenses of the Company and our Manager may be forced to liquidate and wind up the Company or rescind the offering of Series Interests.

There may be deficiencies with our internal controls that require improvements, and if we are unable to adequately evaluate internal controls, we may be subject to sanctions. As a Tier 2 issuer, we will not need to provide a report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, and we will be exempt from the auditor attestation requirements concerning any such report so long as we are a Tier 2 issuer. We do not know whether our internal control procedures are effective and therefore there is a greater likelihood of undiscovered errors in our internal controls or reported financial statements as compared to issuers that have conducted such evaluations.

Using a credit card to purchase shares may impact the return on your investment as well as subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment. Investors in this offering may have the option of paying for their investment with a credit card, which is not usual in the traditional investment markets. Transaction fees charged by your credit card company and interest charged on unpaid card balances (which can reach almost 25% in some states) add to the effective purchase price of the interests you buy. The cost of using a credit card may also increase if you do not make the minimum monthly card payments and incur late fees. Using a credit card is a relatively new form of payment for securities and will subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment, including that, if you fail to make credit card payments (e.g. minimum monthly payments), you risk damaging your credit score and payment by credit card may be more susceptible to abuse than other forms of payment. Moreover, where a third-party payment processor is used, as in this offering, your recovery options in the case of disputes may be limited. The increased costs due to transaction fees and interest may reduce the return on your investment.

The SEC’s Office of Investor Education and Advocacy issued an Investor Alert dated February 14, 2018 entitled Credit Cards and Investments – A Risky Combination, which explains these and other risks you may want to consider before using a credit card to pay for your investment.

Our Operating Agreement contains provisions that reduce or eliminate duties (including fiduciary duties) of our Manager. Our Operating Agreement provides that our Manager, in exercising its rights in its capacity as Manager, 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 Delaware Limited Liability Company Act or under any other law, rule or regulation or in equity. The Operating Agreement allows our Manager and its affiliates to have other business interests, including those that compete with the Company.

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

Conflicts may exist among our Manager and its employees or affiliates. Our Manager will engage with, on behalf of the Company, a number of brokers, asset sellers, insurance companies, and maintenance providers and other service providers and thus may receive in-kind discounts. In such circumstances, it is likely that these in-kind discounts may be retained for the benefit of our Manager and not the Company. Our Manager may be incentivized to choose a service provider or seller based on the benefits they are to receive.

There may be conflicting interests of investors. Our Manager will determine whether or not to acquire or liquidate our Underlying Assets. When determining to acquire or liquidate an Underlying Asset, our Manager will do so considering all of the circumstances at the time, which may include obtaining or paying a price for an Underlying Asset that is in the best interests of some but not all of the investors.

Conflicts may exist between service providers, the Company, Asset manager, each Series, our Manager and their affiliates. Our service providers may provide services to our Manager, Asset Manager, each Series and the Company. Because such providers may represent both the 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, providers may represent such other parties and not the Company. Providers may, in the future, render services to us or other related parties with respect to activities relating to the Company as well as other unrelated activities. Legal counsel is not representing any prospective investors in connection with this offering. Prospective investors are advised to consult their own independent counsel with respect to the other legal and tax implications of an investment in our Series Interests.

You may be more likely to sustain a loss on your investment because our Manager does not have as strong an economic incentive to avoid losses as do managers who have made significant equity investments in their companies. Because it has not made a significant equity investment in the Company, our Manager will have little exposure to loss in the value of Series Interests. Without this exposure, our investors may be at a greater risk of loss because our Manager does not have as much to lose from a decrease in the value of our Series interests as do those managers who make more significant equity investments in their companies.

The terms of our Operating Agreement make it difficult to end our relationship with our Manager. Under the terms of our Operating Agreement, holders of Series Interests in each Series of the Company have the right to remove our Manager as manager of the Company, by a vote of two-thirds of the holders of all interests in each Series of the Company (excluding our manager) voting together, in the event our Manager is found by a non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have committed fraud in connection with a Series of Series Interests or the Company. Unsatisfactory financial performance does not constitute grounds to terminate and remove our Manager under the Operating Agreement. These provisions make it difficult to end the Company’s relationship with our Manager, even if we believe our Manager’s performance is not satisfactory.

We and Investment.com determined the amount of fees paid to Investment.com and its affiliates internally without any independent assessment of comparable market fees. While we and Investment.com may generally seek to set these fees to be comparable to prevailing market rates in the relevant geographic area, we have determined the fee rates without any independent assessment of comparable market fees. As a result, these fees may be higher than those available from unaffiliated third parties

The Series’ results of operations may be negatively impacted by the coronavirus outbreak. In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, or COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has spread to many countries, including the United States, and was declared to be a pandemic by the World Health Organization. Efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 have intensified, and the U.S., Europe, and Asia have implemented severe travel restrictions and social distancing. The full impacts of the outbreak are unknown and rapidly evolving. Reduced demand for travel, whether as a result of regulatory restrictions or the fear of risks that travel may cause, may adversely impact the company’s and the Series’ revenue and financial condition. A widespread health crisis has adversely affected and could continue to affect the global economy, resulting in an economic downturn that could also negatively impact the company’s and each Series’ revenue and financial condition, as well as the value of the Series Interests and investor demand for the Series Interests generally.

8

The continued spread of COVID-19 has also led to severe disruption and volatility in the global capital markets, which could increase the company’s cost of capital and adversely affect its ability to access the capital markets in the future. The continued spread of COVID-19 could cause a further economic slowdown or recession or cause other unpredictable events, each of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

The extent to which COVID-19 affects the company’s financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 outbreak and the actions to contain the outbreak or treat its impact, among others. Moreover, the COVID-19 outbreak has had and may continue to have indeterminable adverse effects on travel, general commercial activity and the world economy, and the company’s business and results of operations could be adversely affected to the extent that COVID-19 or any other pandemic harms the global economy generally.

Actual or threatened epidemics, pandemics, outbreaks, or other public health crises may adversely affect the Series’ business. The Series’ business could be materially and adversely affected by the risks, or the public perception of the risks, related to an epidemic, pandemic, outbreak, or other public health crisis, such as the recent outbreak of novel coronavirus, or COVID-19. The risk, or public perception of the risk, of a pandemic or media coverage of infectious diseases could adversely affect the company’s and the Series’ business and financial condition. “Shelter-in-place” or other such orders by governmental entities would further negatively impact the company’s and each Series’ business and could also disrupt the company’s operations if employees, who cannot perform their responsibilities from home, are not able to report to work.

Risks Related to this Offering and Ownership of our Series Interests

The Company may not raise sufficient funds to achieve its business objectives. There is no minimum amount required to be raised before the Company can accept your subscription for the Series Interests, and it can access the funds immediately. The Company may not raise an amount sufficient for it to meet all of its objectives, including acquiring the Underlying Assets. Once the Company accepts your investment funds, there will be no obligation to return your funds. Even if other Series Interests are sold, there may be insufficient funds raised through this offering to cover the expenses associated with the offering or complete the purchase of the Underlying Assets and the development and implementation of the Company’s operations. The lack of sufficient funds to pay expenses and for working capital will negatively impact the Company’s ability to implement and complete its planned use of proceeds.

The Company’s management has full discretion as to the use of proceeds from the offering. The Company presently anticipates that the net proceeds from the offering will be used by us to purchase the Underlying Assets of the Series and as general working capital. The Company reserves the right, however, to use the funds from the offering for other purposes not presently contemplated herein but which are related directly to growing its current business. As a result of the foregoing, purchasers of the Series Interests hereby will be entrusting their funds to the Company’s management, upon whose judgment and discretion the investors must depend, with only limited information concerning management’s specific intentions.

There is currently no trading market for the Company’s securities. There is currently no public trading market for any Series Interests, and an active market may not develop or be sustained. If an active public or private trading market for the Series Interests does not develop or is not sustained, it may be difficult or impossible for you to resell your Series Interests at any price. Even if a public or private market does develop, the market price could decline below the amount you paid for your Series Interests.

The purchase prices for the Series Interests have been arbitrarily determined. The purchase price for the Series Interests has been arbitrarily determined by the Company and bears no relationship to the Company’s assets, book value, earnings or other generally accepted criteria of value. In determining pricing, the Company considered factors such as the purchase and holding costs of the Underlying Assets, the Company’s limited financial resources, the nature of its assets, estimates of its business potential, the degree of equity or control desired to be retained by Manager and general economic conditions.

There are restrictions on an investor’s ability to sell its interests making it difficult to transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of our Series Interests. Each state has its own securities laws, often called “blue sky” laws, which limit sales of securities to a state’s residents unless the securities are registered in that state or qualify for an exemption from registration. Before a security is sold in a state, there must be a registration in place to cover the transaction, or it must be exempt from registration. Our Series Interests will not be registered under the laws of any states. There may be significant state blue sky law restrictions on the ability of investors to sell, and on purchasers to buy, our Series Interests. Investors should consider the resale market for our Series Interests to be limited. Investors may be unable to resell their Series Interests, or they may be unable to resell them without the significant expense of state registration or qualification.

In addition, there are significant transfer restrictions contained in our Operating Agreement that prohibit transfers under certain circumstances.

Investors will be subject to the terms of the Subscription Agreement. As part of this investment, each investor will be required to agree to the terms of the Subscription Agreement included as Exhibit 4.1 to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular is part. The Subscription Agreement requires investors to indemnify the Company for any claim of brokerage commissions, finders’ fees, or similar compensation and for misrepresentations. Legal conflicts relating to the Subscription Agreement will likely be heard in Delaware courts and will be governed by under Delaware law.

Investors in this offering may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the Subscription Agreement or Operating Agreement, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action under these Agreements. Investors in this offering will be bound by the Subscription Agreement and the Operating Agreement, both of which include a provision under which investors waive the right to a jury trial of any claim, other than claims arising under federal securities laws, that they may have against the Company arising out of or relating to these agreements. By signing these agreements, the investor warrants that the investor has reviewed this waiver with his or her legal counsel, and knowingly and voluntarily waives the investor’s jury trial rights following consultation with the investor’s legal counsel.

If you bring a claim against the Company in connection with matters arising under the Subscription Agreement or Operating Agreement, other than claims under the 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 the Company. If a lawsuit is brought against the Company under one of those agreements, 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.

In addition, when the Series Interests are transferred, the transferee is required to agree to all the same conditions, obligations, and restrictions applicable to the Series Interests or to the transferor with regard to ownership of the Series Interests, that were in effect immediately prior to the transfer of the Series Interests, including the Subscription Agreement and the Operating Agreement.

The Company’s Operating Agreement and Subscription Agreement each include a forum selection provision, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action against the Company. The Operating Agreement of Investment.com Collection, LLC includes a forum selection provision that requires any suit, action, or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with the Operating Agreement, or the transactions contemplated thereby, other than matters arising under the federal securities laws, be brought in state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located within the State of Delaware. Our Subscription Agreement for each manner of investing and class of security includes a forum selection provision that requires any suit, action, or proceeding arising from the Subscription Agreement, other than matters arising under the federal securities laws, be brought in a state of federal court of competent jurisdiction located within 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.

We are offering our Series Interests pursuant to Tier 2 of Regulation A and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to Tier 2 issuers will make our Series Interests less attractive to investors as compared to a traditional initial public offering. As a Tier 2 issuer, we are subject to scaled disclosure and reporting requirements as compared to companies whose securities are registered under the Securities Act or Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which may make an investment in our Series Interests less attractive to investors who are accustomed to enhanced disclosure and more frequent financial reporting. The differences between disclosures for Tier 2 issuers versus those for emerging growth companies include, without limitation, only needing to file final semiannual reports as opposed to quarterly reports and far fewer circumstances where a current disclosure would be required. If our scaled disclosure and reporting requirements reduces the attractiveness of the interests, we may be unable to raise the funds necessary to fund future offerings, which could impair our ability to offer a diversified portfolio of investments and create economies of scale, which may adversely affect the value of the interests or the ability to make distributions to investors.

We are subject to ongoing public reporting requirements that are less rigorous than rules for more mature public companies, and our investors receive less information. We are required to report on an ongoing basis under the reporting rules set forth in Regulation A for Tier 2 issuers. The ongoing reporting requirements under Regulation A are more relaxed than for public companies reporting under the Exchange Act. The differences include, but are not limited to, being required to file only annual and semiannual reports, rather than annual and quarterly reports. Annual reports are due within 120 calendar days after the end of our fiscal year, and semiannual reports are due within 90 calendar days after the end of the first six months of our fiscal year.

10

We also may elect to become a public reporting company under the Exchange Act. If we elector are required to do so, we will be required to publicly report on an ongoing basis as an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act, under the reporting rules set forth under the Exchange Act. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other Exchange Act reporting companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to:

● not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

● being permitted to comply with reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements; and

● being exempt from the requirement to hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We would expect to elect to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

We would expect to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would remain an emerging growth company for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion; (ii) the date that we become a large accelerated filer as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our Series Interests that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter; or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three-year period.

In either case, we will be subject to ongoing public reporting requirements that are less rigorous than Exchange Act rules for companies that are not emerging growth companies, and investors could receive less information than they might expect to receive from more mature public companies.

Risk Factors Related to Real Estate Generally

We may experience general risks of real estate investing. Factors which could affect the Company’s ownership of income-producing property might include, but are not limited to any or all of the following; changing environmental regulations, adverse use of adjacent or neighboring real estate, changes in the demand for or supply of competing property, local economic factors which could result in the reduction of the fair market value of a property, uninsured losses, significant unforeseen changes in general or local economic conditions, inability of the Company to obtain any required permits or entitlements for a reasonable cost or on reasonable conditions or within a reasonable time frame or at all, inability of the Company to obtain the services of appropriate consultants at the proposed cost, changes in legal requirements for any needed permits or entitlements, problems caused by the presence of environmental hazards on a property, changes in federal or state regulations applicable to real property, failure of a lender to approve a loan on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company, lack of adequate availability of liability insurance or all-risk or other types of required insurance at a commercially-reasonable price, shortages or reductions in available energy, acts of God or other calamities. Furthermore, there could be a loss of liquidity in the capital markets such that a refinance or sale of a property may be hindered.

Our Company’s investment in the properties will be additionally subject to the risks and other factors generally incident to the ownership of real property, including such things as the effects of inflation or deflation, inability to control future operating costs, inability to attract tenants, vandalism, rent strikes, collection difficulties, uncertainty of cash flow, the availability and costs of borrowed funds, the general level of real estate values, competition from other properties, residential patterns and uses, general economic conditions (national, regional, and local), the general suitability of a property to its market area, governmental rules and fiscal policies, acts of God, and other factors beyond the control of the Company.

11

We face possible risks associated with natural disasters and the physical effects of climate change, which may include more frequent or severe storms, hurricanes, flooding, rising sea levels, shortages of water, droughts and wildfires, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. To the extent climate change causes changes in weather patterns, our coastal destinations could experience increases in storm intensity and rising sea-levels causing damage to our properties and result in reduced bookings at these properties. Climate change may also affect our business by increasing the cost of, or making unavailable, property insurance on terms we find acceptable in areas most vulnerable to such events, increasing operating costs, including the cost of water or energy, and requiring us to expend funds to repair and protect our properties in connection with such events. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

The performance of any real estate asset is likely to fluctuate significantly due to seasonality. The performance of any vacation rental property is likely to fluctuate significantly during the course of a year, reflecting periods of lower or higher demand depending on the location of the property. We may experience declines in occupancy rates and revenues during low seasons, while costs and expenses do not decline at the same rate, if at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability, cash flow and ability to make distributions to investors.

The underlying value and performance of any real estate asset will fluctuate with general and local economic conditions. The successful operation of any real estate asset is significantly related to general and local economic conditions. Periods of economic slowdown or recession, significantly rising interest rates, declining employment levels, decreasing demand for vacation rentals, declining real estate values, or the public perception that any of these events may occur, can result in reductions in the underlying value of any asset and result in poor economic performance. In such cases, investors may lose the full value of their investment, or may not experience any distributions from the real estate asset.

Rising expenses could reduce cash flow and funds available for future investments. Our properties will be subject to increases in real estate tax rates, utility costs, operating expenses, insurance costs, repairs and maintenance, administrative and other expenses. If we are unable to increase rents at an equal or higher rate or lease properties on a basis that covers all or some of the expenses, we would be required to pay those costs, which could adversely affect funds available for future cash distributions.

The market in which the Company participates is competitive and, if it does not compete effectively, its operating results could be harmed. The Company competes with many others engaged in real estate in general and vacation rental operating activities in particular, including but not limited to individuals, corporations, bank and insurance company investment accounts, real estate investment trusts, and private real estate funds. In particular, the Company intends to list its vacation rental properties through established vacation rental booking platforms, such as AirBNB and VRBO, and the Company’s properties will compete with all other properties listed in those sites in the vicinity of the Company’s property, as well as other traditional accommodations such as hotels which may have built-in client bases and significantly greater resources and the ability to withstand economic downturns or off-peak vacancies. This market is competitive and rapidly changing. Significant increases in the number of listings for short-term vacation rentals in the geographic areas where the Company’s properties are located, if not met by a similar increase in demand for short-term rentals, is likely to cause downward pressure on rental rates and, potentially, impact to value of the Underlying Asset. The Company expects competition to persist and intensify in the future, which could harm its ability to generate sufficient rental income from its vacation properties or acquire additional properties on terms that investors find to be reasonable.

The Company will be dependent on the vacation rental platforms through which it lists its properties. The Company intends to promote its vacation rental properties through vacation rental booking platforms such as AirBNB and VRBO and will rely on these platforms to facilitate bookings, communications with renters, collection of rental amounts and taxes, and to remit those payments appropriately. If these platforms were to experience disruptions or fail to meet users expectations, our business could suffer. Furthermore, if one or more of these platforms were to cease operations or to reject our listing, we may have difficulty renting our vacation property, which could have a material adverse effect on our results, profitability and the ability to make distributions to investors.

A vacation rental property could be difficult to sell, which could diminish the return on the Underlying Assets. A vacation rental property may incur losses due to extended periods of vacancy and may suffer reduced revenues resulting in less cash available for distribution to its investors. In addition, the resale value of the Underlying Assets could be diminished if the market value of the Underlying Assets declines, due to a decrease in cash flow generated by property or decline in real estate market values. Such a reduction in the resale value of a property could also reduce the value of investors Series Interests.

The Company may decide to sell property which could conflict with an investor’s interests. The Company may determine when to sell any property at any time in accordance with the management rights afforded to the Manager. Investors will not have a say in this decision. The timing and decision to sell a property may conflict with investors personal interests, beliefs or theories regarding the real estate market. Further, it is possible the sale was not done at an optimal time. In any case, investors would not have any cause of action against the Company or Manager for such sales.

12

A decline in general economic conditions in the markets in which each property is located or in the United States generally could lead to a decrease in bookings, cancellations and lower rental rates in those markets. As a result of these trends, the Company may reduce revenue, potentially resulting in losses and lower resale value of properties, which may reduce investor return.

Lawsuits may arise between the Company and its tenants resulting in lower cash distributions to investors. Disputes between landlords and tenants are common. These disputes may escalate into legal action from time to time. In the event a lawsuit arises between the Company and a tenant it is likely that the Company will see an increase in costs. Accordingly, cash distributions to investors may be affected.

Costs imposed pursuant to governmental laws and regulations may reduce the Company’s net income and the cash available for distributions to its investors. Real property and the operations conducted on real property are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to protection of the environment and human health. The Company could be subject to liability in the form of fines, penalties or damages for noncompliance with these laws and regulations. These laws and regulations generally govern wastewater discharges, air emissions, the operation and removal of underground and above-ground storage tanks, the use, storage, treatment, transportation and disposal of solid and hazardous materials, the remediation of contamination associated with the release or disposal of solid and hazardous materials, the presence of toxic building materials and other health and safety-related concerns. Some of these laws and regulations may impose joint and several liability on the tenants, owners or operators of real property for the costs to investigate or remediate contaminated properties, regardless of fault, whether the contamination occurred prior to purchase, or whether the acts causing the contamination were legal. Activities of the Company’s tenants, the condition of properties at the time the Company buys them, operations in the vicinity of its properties, such as the presence of underground storage tanks, or activities of unrelated third parties may affect its properties. The presence of hazardous substances, or the failure to properly manage or remediate these substances, may hinder the Company’s ability to sell, rent or pledge such property as collateral for future borrowings. Any material expenditures, fines, penalties or damages the Company must pay will reduce its ability to make distributions and may reduce the value of your investment.

The costs of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property or of paying personal injury or other damage claims could reduce the amounts available for distribution to the Company’s investors. Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous real property owner or operator may be liable for the cost of removing or remediating hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. These costs could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws also may impose liens on property or restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures or prevent us booking the property. Environmental laws provide for sanctions for noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for the release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint. Third parties may seek recovery from real property owners or operators for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances and governments may seek recovery for natural resource damage. The costs of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury, property damage or natural resource damage claims could reduce or eliminate the amounts available for distribution to you.

Costs associated with complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act may decrease cash available for distributions. Each Underlying Asset may be subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, or the ADA. Under the ADA, all places of public accommodation are required to comply with federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. The ADA has separate compliance requirements for “public accommodations” and “commercial facilities” that generally require that buildings and services be made accessible and available to people with disabilities. The ADA’s requirements could require removal of access barriers and could result in the imposition of injunctive relief, monetary penalties or, in some cases, an award of damages. Any funds used for ADA compliance will reduce the Company’s net income and the amount of cash available for distributions to investors.

Uninsured losses relating to real property or excessively expensive premiums for insurance coverage could reduce the Company’s cash flows and the return on investment. There are types of losses, generally catastrophic in nature, such as losses due to wars, acts of terrorism, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, pollution or environmental matters, that are uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be insured subject to limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. Insurance risks associated with potential acts of terrorism could sharply increase the premiums the Company pays for coverage against property and casualty claims. Additionally, to the extent the Company finances the acquisition of an Underlying Asset, mortgage lenders in some cases insist that property owners purchase coverage against flooding as a condition for providing mortgage loans. Such insurance policies may not be available at reasonable costs, which could inhibit the Company’s ability to finance or refinance its properties if so required. In such instances, the Company may be required to provide other financial support, either through financial assurances or self-insurance, to cover potential losses. The Company may not have adequate coverage for such losses. If any of the properties incur a casualty loss that is not fully insured, the value of the assets will be reduced by any such uninsured loss, which may reduce the value of investor interests. In addition, other than any working capital reserve or other reserves the Company may establish, the Company has no additional sources of funding to repair or reconstruct any uninsured property. Also, to the extent the Company must pay unexpectedly large amounts for insurance, it could suffer reduced earnings that would result in lower distributions to investors.

We may not have control over costs arising from rehabilitation of properties. We may elect to invest in properties which may require rehabilitation. Consequently, we may retain independent general contractors to perform the actual physical rehabilitation and/or construction work and will be subject to risks in connection with a contractor’s ability to control rehabilitation and/or construction costs, the timing of completion of rehabilitation and/or construction, and a contractor’s ability to build in conformity with plans and specification.

The consideration paid for our properties may exceed fair market value, which may harm our financial condition and operating results. The consideration that we pay will be based upon numerous factors, and the properties may be purchased in a negotiated transaction rather than through a competitive bidding process. We cannot assure anyone that the purchase price that we pay for a property or its appraised value will be a fair price, that we will be able to generate an acceptable return on such property, or that the location, lease terms or other relevant economic and financial data of any properties that we invest in will meet acceptable risk profiles. We may also be unable to lease vacant space or renegotiate existing leases at market rates, which would adversely affect our returns on a property. As a result, our investments in our properties may fail to perform in accordance with our expectations, which may substantially harm our operating results and financial condition.

The failure of our properties to generate positive cash flow or to sufficiently appreciate in value would most likely preclude our investors from realizing an attractive return on their interest ownership. There is no assurance that our real estate investments will appreciate in value or will ever be sold at a profit. The marketability and value of the properties will depend upon many factors beyond the control of our management. There is no assurance that there will be a ready market for the properties, since investments in real property are generally non-liquid. The real estate market is affected by many factors, such as general economic conditions, availability of financing, interest rates and other factors, including supply and demand, that are beyond our control. We cannot predict whether we will be able to sell any property for the price or on the terms set by it, or whether any price or other terms offered by a prospective purchaser would be acceptable to us. We also cannot predict the length of time needed to find a willing purchaser and to close the sale of a property. Moreover, we may be required to expend funds to correct defects or to make improvements before a property can be sold. We cannot assure any person that we will have funds available to correct those defects or to make those improvements. In investing in a property, we may agree to lockout provisions that materially restrict us from selling that property for a period of time or impose other restrictions, such as a limitation on the amount of debt that can be placed or repaid on that property. These lockout provisions would restrict our ability to sell a property. These factors and any others that would impede our ability to respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties could significantly harm our financial condition and operating results.

Illiquidity of real estate investments could significantly impede our ability to respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties and harm our financial condition. Because real estate investments are relatively illiquid, our ability to promptly sell one or more properties or investments in our portfolio in response to changing economic, financial and investment conditions may be limited. In particular, these risks could arise from weakness in or even the lack of an established market for a property, changes in the financial condition or prospects of prospective purchasers, changes in national or international economic conditions, and changes in laws, regulations or fiscal policies of jurisdictions in which the property is located. We may be unable to realize our investment objectives by sale, other disposition or refinance at attractive prices within any given period of time or may otherwise be unable to complete any exit strategy. An exit event is not guaranteed and is subject to our Manager’s discretion.

We may experience liability for alleged or actual harm to third parties and costs of litigation. Owning and operating the properties subjects the Company to the risk of lawsuits filed by tenants, past and present employees, contractors, competitors, business partners, and others in the ordinary course of business. As with all legal proceedings, no assurance can be provided as to the outcome of these matters, and legal proceedings can be expensive and time consuming. Our Company may not be successful in the defense or prosecution of these lawsuits, which could result in settlements or damages that could result in substantial Losses to the Company. Even if the Company is successful, there may be substantial costs associated with the legal proceeding, and our Manager may be delayed or prevented from implementing the business plan of the Company.

Contractors may underestimate costs. Our Company intends on purchasing properties and rehabbing them in some cases. Our Company will likely hire contractors based on bids received for the cost of the rehab. Our Company may hire a contractor that underestimates the material and labor costs, the property could suffer from cost overruns which could adversely affect investments by investors.

14

Our Company will not realize a profit until individual properties are either cash flow positive or sold. Therefore, if there are cost overruns or multiple unforeseen change orders, the Company may not realize a return on investment which could adversely affect Members’ investments.

Title insurance may not cover all title defects. Our Manager will acquire title insurance on each property, but It is possible that uninsured title defects could arise in the future, which the Company may have to defend or otherwise resolve, the cost of which may impact the profitability of each property and/or the Company as a whole.

Due diligence may not uncover all material facts. Our Manager, through its members will endeavor to obtain and verify material facts regarding the properties. It is possible, however, that our Manager will not discover certain material facts about a property, because information presented by the sellers may have been prepared in an incomplete or misleading fashion, and material facts related to such property may not yet have been discovered.

Financial projections may be wrong. Certain financial projections concerning the future performance of the properties are based on assumptions of an arbitrary nature and may prove to be materially incorrect. No assurance is given that actual results will correspond with the results contemplated by these projections. It is possible that returns may be lower than projected, or that there may be no returns at all.

These and all other financial projections, and any other statements previously provided to the Purchaser relating to the Company or its prospective business operations that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Sentences or phrases that use such words as “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “may,” “hopes,” “can,” “will,” “expects,” “is designed to,” “with the intent,” “potential” and others indicate forward-looking statements, but their absence does not mean that a statement is not forward- looking.

Such statements are based on our Manager’s current estimates and expectations, along with currently available competitive, financial, and economic data. However, forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain. A variety of factors could cause business conditions and results to differ materially from what is contained in any such forward-looking statements.

It is possible that actual results from operation of the properties will be different than the returns anticipated by our Manager and/or that these returns may not be realized in the timeframe projected by our Manager, if at all.

We might obtain lines of credit and other borrowings, which increases our risk of loss due to potential foreclosure. We may obtain lines of credit and long-term financing that may be secured by our assets. As with any liability, there is a risk that we may be unable to repay our obligations from the cash flow of our assets. Therefore, when borrowing and securing such borrowing with our assets, we risk losing such assets in the event we are unable to repay such obligations or meet such demands.

We have broad authority to incur debt and high debt levels could hinder our ability to make distributions and decrease the value of our investors’ investments. We may borrow as much as 80% or more of the value of our properties. While our investors will not be personally liable for these obligations, and our Manager may issue personal guarantees that these obligations will be repaid, the Company is ultimately responsible for paying off these debts. High debt levels would cause us to incur higher interest charges and higher debt service payments and may also be accompanied by restrictive covenants. These factors could limit the amount of cash we have available to distribute and could result in a decline in the value of our investors’ investments.

Risk Factors Relating to REITS

We intend that Series with income producing real estate as an Underlying Asset be taxed as REITs, for which the following risk factors would apply.

The failure of a Series to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT would subject the Series to U.S. federal income tax and potentially state and local tax and would adversely affect the Series’ operations and the market price of the Series’ Interests. We intend for each Series to elect and qualify to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, commencing with the first full taxable year following the closing of a Series offering and intend to operate such Series in a manner that would allow the Series to continue to qualify as a REIT. However, we may terminate a Series’ REIT qualification, if our Manager determines that not qualifying as a REIT is in the best interests of a Series, or inadvertently. A Series’ qualification as a REIT depends upon its ability to meet, through actual annual operating results, distribution levels, and diversity of stock ownership, the various and complex REIT qualification tests imposed under the Internal Revenue Code. To qualify as a REIT, a Series must comply with certain highly technical and complex requirements. We cannot be certain that a Series has complied or will comply with these requirements because there are few judicial and administrative interpretations of these provisions. In addition, facts and circumstances that may be beyond our control may affect our ability for each Series to qualify as a REIT. We cannot assure you that new legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not change the tax laws significantly with respect to a Series’ qualification as a REIT or with respect to the federal income tax consequences of qualification. We cannot assure you that we will qualify or will remain qualified as a REIT.

15

If a Series fails to qualify as a REIT, it will not be allowed to deduct distributions to investors in computing taxable income and will be subject to federal income tax at regular rates. In addition, the Series may be barred from qualification as a REIT for the four taxable years following disqualification. The additional tax incurred at regular corporate rates would significantly reduce the taxable cash flow available for distribution to investors and for debt service. Furthermore, the Series would no longer be required by the Internal Revenue Code to make any distributions to our investors as a condition of REIT qualification. Any distributions to investors would be taxable as ordinary income to the extent of the Series current and accumulated earnings and profits. Corporate distributees, however, may be eligible for the dividends received deduction on the distributions, subject to limitations under the Internal Revenue Code.

Even if a Series qualifies as a REIT, in certain circumstances, it may incur tax liabilities that would reduce its cash available for distribution to our investors. Even if a Series qualifies and maintains its status as a REIT, it may be subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. For example, net income from the sale of properties that are “dealer” properties sold by a REIT (a “prohibited transaction” under the Internal Revenue Code) will be subject to a 100% excise tax, and some state and local jurisdictions may tax some or all of our income because not all states and localities treat REITs the same as they are treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A Series may not make sufficient distributions to avoid excise taxes applicable to REITs. A Series also may decide to retain net capital gain we earn from the sale or other disposition of our property and pay U.S. federal income tax directly on such income. In that event, our investors would be treated as if they earned that income and paid the tax on it directly. However, investors that are tax-exempt, such as charities or qualified pension plans, would have no benefit from their deemed payment of such tax liability unless they file U.S. federal income tax returns and thereon seek a refund of such tax. A Series also will be subject to corporate tax on any undistributed REIT taxable income. Cash used for paying taxes will not be available for distribution or reinvestment by the Series.

The taxation of distributions to our investors can be complex; however, distributions that we make to our investors generally will be taxable as ordinary income or constitute a return of capital, which may reduce your anticipated return from an investment in us. Distributions that a Series makes to our taxable investors out of current and accumulated earnings and profits (and not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income) generally will be taxable as ordinary income. However, a portion of our distributions may (1) constitute a return of capital generally to the extent that they exceed our accumulated earnings and profits as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (2) be designated by us as capital gain dividends generally taxable as long-term capital gain to the extent that they are attributable to net capital gain recognized by us, or (3) be designated by us as qualified dividend income generally to the extent they are attributable to dividends we receive from our TRSs. A return of capital is not taxable, but has the effect of reducing the basis of an investor’s investment in our Series Interests. Due to our investment in real estate, depreciation deductions and interest expense may reduce our earnings and profits in our early years with the result that a large portion of distributions to our investors in early years may constitute a return of capital rather than ordinary income.

Dividends payable by REITs generally do not qualify for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends. Qualified dividend income payable to U.S. investors that are individuals, trusts, and estates is subject to the reduced maximum tax rate applicable to long-term capital gains. Dividends payable by REITs, however, generally are not eligible for this reduced rate. For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026, non-corporate taxpayers may deduct up to 20% of certain pass-through business income, including “qualified REIT dividends” (generally, dividends received by a REIT that are not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified income), subject to certain limitations, resulting in an effective maximum federal income tax rate of 29.6% on such income. In addition, individuals, trusts, and estates whose income exceeds certain thresholds are subject to 3.8% Medicare tax on dividends received by us. Although the reduced U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to qualified dividend income does not adversely affect the taxation of REITs or dividends payable by REITs, the more favorable rates applicable to regular corporate dividends could cause investors who are individuals, trusts, and estates to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the stocks of non-REIT corporations that pay dividends, which could adversely affect the value of the interests of the REITs, including our Series Interests. Tax rates could be changed in future legislation.

If a Series were considered to actually or constructively pay a “preferential dividend” to certain of our investors, the Series’ status as a REIT could be adversely affected. In order to qualify as a REIT, a Series must distribute annually to its investors at least 90% of the Series’ REIT taxable income (which does not equal net income, as calculated in accordance with GAAP), determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gain. In order for distributions to be counted as satisfying the annual distribution requirements for REITs, and to provide the Series with a REIT-level tax deduction, the distributions must not be “preferential dividends.” A dividend is not a preferential dividend if the distribution is pro rata among all outstanding interests within a particular class, and in accordance with the preferences among different classes of stock as set forth in our organizational documents. Currently, there is uncertainty as to the IRS’s position regarding whether certain arrangements that REITs have with their investors could give rise to the inadvertent payment of a preferential dividend. While we believe that our operations have been structured in such a manner that we will not be treated as inadvertently paying preferential dividends, there is no de minimis exception with respect to preferential dividends. Therefore, if the IRS were to take the position that a Series inadvertently paid a preferential dividend, the Series may be deemed either to (a) have distributed less than 100% of its REIT taxable income and be subject to tax on the undistributed portion, or (b) have distributed less than 90% of its REIT taxable income and the Series status as a REIT could be terminated for the year in which such determination is made if the Series were unable to cure such failure. If, however, a Series qualifies as a “publicly offered REIT” (within the meaning of Section 562(c) of the Internal Revenue Code) in the future, the preferential dividend rules will cease to apply to us. In addition, the IRS is authorized to provide alternative remedies to cure a failure to comply with the preferential dividend rules, but as of the date hereof, no such authorized procedures have been promulgated.

16

Complying with REIT requirements may limit our ability to hedge our liabilities effectively and may cause us to incur tax liabilities. The REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code may limit our ability to hedge our liabilities. Any income from a hedging transaction we enter into to manage risk of interest rate changes, price changes or currency fluctuations with respect to borrowings made or to be made to acquire or carry real estate assets, if properly identified under applicable Treasury Regulations, does not constitute “gross income” for purposes of the 75% or 95% gross income tests. To the extent that we enter into other types of hedging transactions, the income from those transactions will likely be treated as non-qualifying income for purposes of both of the gross income tests. As a result of these rules, we may need to limit our use of advantageous hedging techniques or implement those hedges through a TRS. This could increase the cost of our hedging activities because our TRSs would be subject to tax on gains or expose us to greater risks associated with changes in interest rates than we would otherwise want to bear. In addition, losses in a TRS generally will not provide any tax benefit, except for being carried forward against future taxable income of such TRS.

The ability of our Manager to revoke the REIT qualification of a Series without approval may subject a Series to U.S. federal income tax and reduce distributions to our investors. Our Operating Agreement provides that our Manager may revoke or otherwise terminate a Series’ REIT election, without the approval of our investors, if it determines that it is no longer in a Series’ best interest to continue to qualify as a REIT. While we intend for each Series to elect and qualify to be taxed as a REIT, a Series may not elect to be treated as a REIT or may terminate its REIT election if we determine that qualifying as a REIT is no longer in the best interests of our investors. If a Series ceases to be a REIT, it would become subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income and would no longer be required to distribute most of its taxable income to our investors, which may have adverse consequences on the total return to our investors and on the market price of the Series’ interests.

Legislative or regulatory action with respect to tax laws and regulations could adversely affect the Company and our investors. On December 22, 2017, H.R. 1, informally titled the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or the TCJA, was enacted. The TCJA made major changes to the Internal Revenue Code, including a number of provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that affect the taxation of REITs and their investors. The long-term effect of the significant changes made by the TCJA remains uncertain, and additional administrative guidance will be required in order to fully evaluate the effect of many provisions. The effect of technical corrections with respect to the TCJA could have an adverse effect on the Company and our investors. We are also subject to state and local tax laws and regulations. Changes in state and local tax laws or regulations may result in an increase in our tax liability. A shortfall in tax revenues for states and municipalities in which we operate may lead to an increase in the frequency and size of such changes. If such changes occur, we may be required to pay additional taxes on our assets or income. These increased costs could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and the amount of cash available for the payment of dividends.

In addition, in recent years, numerous legislative, judicial and administrative changes have been made to the federal income tax laws applicable to investments in REITs and similar entities. Additional changes to tax laws are likely to continue to occur in the future, and we cannot assure our investors that any such changes will not adversely affect the taxation of an. We cannot assure you that future changes to tax laws and regulations will not have an adverse effect on an investment in our Series Interests.

You are urged to consult with your tax advisor with respect to the impact of recent legislation on your investment in our Series Interests and the status of legislative, regulatory or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in our Series Interests.

Although REITs generally receive better tax treatment than entities taxed as regular corporations, it is possible that future legislation would result in a REIT having fewer tax advantages, and it could become more advantageous for a company that invests in real estate to elect to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a corporation. As a result, the operating agreement provides our Manager with the power, under certain circumstances, to revoke or otherwise terminate a Series’ REIT election and cause such Series to be taxed as a regular corporation, without the vote of our investors. The manager could only cause such changes in a Series’ tax treatment if it determines in good faith that such changes are in the best interest of the Series’ investors.

The ownership restrictions of the Internal Revenue Code for REITs and the 9.8% ownership limit in the operating agreement may inhibit market activity in our Series Interests and restrict our business combination opportunities The Internal Revenue Code imposes certain limitations on the ownership of the stock of a REIT. For example, not more than 50% in value of our outstanding interests of capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code) during the last half of any taxable year. To protect a Series’ REIT status, the operating agreement prohibits any holder from acquiring more than 9.8% (in value or number of interests, whichever is more restrictive) of the aggregate of the outstanding total capital stock of a Series or more than 9.8% (in value or number of interests, whichever is more restrictive) of our Series Interests or any class or Series of the outstanding interests unless our Manager determines that it is no longer in a Series’ best interests to continue to qualify as a REIT or that compliance with the restriction is no longer required in order for the Series to continue to so qualify as a REIT. The ownership limitation may limit the opportunity for investors to receive a premium for their interests that might otherwise exist if an investor were attempting to assemble a block of interests in excess of 9.8% of the outstanding interests or otherwise effect a change in control.

17

Potential characterization of distributions or gain on sale may be treated as unrelated business taxable income to tax-exempt investors. If (a) we are a “pension-held REIT,” (b) a tax-exempt entity has incurred (or deemed to have incurred) debt to purchase or hold our Series Interests, or (c) a holder of our Series Interests is a certain type of tax-exempt entity, dividends on, and gains recognized on the sale of, our Series Interests by such tax-exempt entity may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as unrelated business taxable income under the Internal Revenue Code.

Assuming the offering is fully-subscribed, the Company estimates that total fees due to pay Dalmore, including the one-time advance expense allowance fee of $5,000 and consulting fee of $20,000, would be $ 31,345.56

Dalmore will also receive a $1,000 fee for each post-qualification amendment to the offering statement that we file to qualify additional series offerings. The aggregate commission to be paid to Dalmore, which will be inclusive of all fees to be received in connection with each post-qualification amendment to the offering statement to qualify additional series offerings, will have a maximum value of no more than 7% of the total offering proceeds. Dalmore will ensure that the maximum commission amount will not exceed this 7% cap.

Subscription Procedure

We have engaged an affiliate of Dalmore, Dalmore Technology, LLC (the “Technology Provider”), to provide certain technology services to us in connection with this offering, including providing the online subscription processing platform. After the qualification by the SEC of the offering statement of which this offering circular is a part, this offering will be conducted online through our website at the domain name www.investment.com whereby investors review and complete online subscription agreements and make payment of the purchase price through a third party processor to an account we designate. We estimate total fees payable by the Company directly to the Technology Provider will be approximately $12,500 upfront and $15,000 per month plus $1.50 per KYC/AML record. The Technology Provider is not participating as an underwriter or placement agent of this offering and will not solicit any investments, recommend our securities, provide investment advice to any prospective investor, or distribute this Offering Circular or other offering materials to potential investors. All inquiries regarding this offering should be made directly to us.

After the Offering Statement has been qualified by the Commission, the Company will accept tenders of funds to purchase the Series Interests. Investors will be required to complete a subscription agreement in order to invest. 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 their annual income or 10% of their net worth (calculated in the same manner as for accredited investors under rule 501 of regulation D under the Securities Act).

19

To subscribe for the Series Interests, each prospective investor must:

1. Go to www.investment.com;

2. Complete profile setup and link a bank account;

3. Review our open Series;

4. Click on the “Subscribe” button for the desired Series;

5. Complete subscription information and review and sign the subscription agreement;

6. The Company may ask an investor to provide identification or accreditation proof documents before accepting the subscription.

Once the minimum offering amount, if any, is reached, the Company may close on investments on a “rolling” basis (so not all investors will receive their Series Interests on the same date). Investors may subscribe by tendering funds by check, wire transfer, or ACH transfer to the account maintained by the Company until the Company has accepted the investor’s subscription. Upon closing, funds tendered by investors will be immediately available to the Company for its use. The Company has the right to refuse to sell the Series Interests to any prospective investor or for any reason in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, if such prospective investor does not promptly supply all information requested by the Company in connection with such prospective investor subscription. In addition, in the Company’s sole discretion, it may establish a limit on the purchase of Series Interests by particular prospective investors.

Transfer Agent

The Company has entered into an agreement with United Transfer Agency, LLC to provide transfer agent services.

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.

Forum Selection Provision

The Subscription Agreement that investors will execute in connection with the offering includes a forum selection provision that requires any claims against the Company based on the Agreement to be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the Agreement, excluding any claims under federal securities laws. Although the Company believes the provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies and in limiting the Company’s litigation costs, to the extent it is enforceable, the forum selection provision 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 the provision 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 to not lose a significant amount of time travelling to various forums so they may continue to focus on operations of the Company.

20

Jury Trial Waiver

The Subscription Agreement that investors will execute in connection with the offering provides that subscribers waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against us arising out of or relating to the Agreement, excluding any claim under federal securities laws. By signing the Subscription Agreement, an investor will warrant that the investor has reviewed this waiver with the investor’s legal counsel, and knowingly and voluntarily waives his or her jury trial rights following consultation with the investor’s legal counsel. If the Company opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable given the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with applicable case law.

If we fail to raise enough to cover commissions, the net property purchase price, and the cost of expected repairs and furnishings, Investment.com may provide a loan to Series 1 – The Blue Crab to fund expenses, which would be repaid with the proceeds from the offering, with additional proceeds applied to the service fee. The Company may choose to expense the balance of the service fee, which would be deducted from revenues generated by the Series 1 – The Blue Crab property, or Investment.com may increase its investment in Series 1 – The Blue Crab Interests to cover the balance of the service fee.

General

The allocation of the use of proceeds among the categories of anticipated expenditures represents management’s best estimates based on the current status of the Company’s proposed operations, plans, investment objectives, capital requirements, and financial conditions. Future events, including changes in economic or competitive conditions of our business plan or the completion of less than the total offering, may cause the Company to modify the above-described allocation of proceeds. The Company’s use of proceeds may vary significantly in the event any of the Company’s assumptions prove inaccurate. We reserve the right to change the allocation of net proceeds from the offering as unanticipated events or opportunities arise.

BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Overview

The Company intends to establish separate Series for the holding of various assets, with each asset to be held by a distinct series. Such assets may include, but are not limited to, operating businesses, business assets, real estate (including vacation rentals), business or real estate loans, franchises, and fractional interests in bundled merchant advances. Notably, the debts, liabilities and obligations incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular Series of the Company will be enforceable against the assets of the applicable Series only, and not against the assets of the Company.

Investment.com Collection is a subsidiary of Investment.com. As discussed further in the Operating Agreement of Investment.com Collection, Investment.com is our Manager. Investment.com was incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 7, 2022. Investment.com is an investment platform that provides both direct access and opportunity to individual investors to invest in fractional ownership of quality assets that might otherwise be unavailable given the size of each deal.

Intended Business Process

Generally, the Company and Investment.com intends to arrange for the purchase of a specific asset either directly by the Series or by Investment.com or one of its wholly owned subsidiaries, as below described. The Company may set a minimum offering amount for each Series such that the net proceeds would be sufficient to finance the purchase of the Underlying Assets. We intend each Series with income producing real estate interests (including mortgages) as its Underlying Assets to be taxed as a REIT and the other Series to be taxed as corporations.

If the Company or one of its subsidiaries purchased an Underlying Asset directly, then, after the relevant Series has obtained sufficient financing, it would sell the Underlying Asset to that Series for an amount equal to the original purchase price (including closing costs) plus holding costs, renovation and other related costs incurred prior to the sale to the Series as well as the applicable service fee specified in the Series Designation for the relevant Series.

In cases where Investment.com identifies and intends to have the Series purchase an Underlying Asset directly from a third-party seller, it would use the proceeds of the offering for that Series to purchase the Underlying Asset and may finance a portion of the purchase price with a mortgage or other third-party financing. If the purchase agreement for the Underlying Asset does not include a financing condition or the financing contingency has expired and the closing for the property occurs prior to sufficient minimum proceeds being received, Investment.com or an affiliate may provide a loan to the Series to finance all or part of the purchase price of the Underlying Asset that would be repaid with the proceeds of the offering. Intercompany loans between Investment.com or an affiliate of Investment.com, on the one hand, and a Series, on the other hand, would generally have the following terms:

● Interest: Interest will accrue on amounts outstanding under the loan at an annual fixed rate, simple interest, and would be payable upon maturity or upon full prepayment of the loan. The interest rate is expected to be equal to 2.5% above the existing prime rate at the time the loan is made.

● Security: The loan would be unsecured.

● Default: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the loan agreement, if the borrower defaults in the performance of any obligation under the loan agreement, then the lender may declare the principal amount owing and interest due under the loan agreement at that time to be immediately due and payable.

● Prepayment: No prepayment penalty

● Maturity: The later of (i) the final closing of a Series offering and (ii) such later date determined by Investment.com

22

Asset Management Agreements with Investment.com AM

Investment.com AM will serve as the Asset Manager responsible for managing each Series’ Underlying Asset (the “Asset Manager”) as described in the relevant Asset Management Agreement (“Agreement”) for the Series. The terms of each Agreement are as set forth below.

Performance of Underlying Assets: The Asset Manager gives no warranty as to the performance or profitability of the Underlying

Assets or as to the performance of any third party engaged by the Asset Manager hereunder.

Assignment: No Asset Management Agreement may be assigned by either party without the consent of the other party.

Compensation and Expenses: Each Series will pay, monthly, a Series asset management fee to the Asset Manager, equal to 25%-40% of the Gross Receipts received by the Series during the immediately preceding month. “Gross Receipts” means gross income derived from all sources, which for real property assets includes, but is not limited to, (i) receipts from the rental of the Underlying Assets; (ii) receipts from rental escalations, late charges and/or cancellation fees (iii) receipts from tenants for reimbursable operating expenses; (iv) receipts from concessions granted or goods or services provided in connection with the Underlying Assets or to the tenants or prospective tenants; (v) other miscellaneous operating receipts; and (vi) proceeds from rent or business interruption insurance, excluding (A) tenants’ security or damage deposits until the same are forfeited by the person making such deposits; (B) property damage insurance proceeds; and (C) any award or payment made by any governmental authority in connection with the exercise of any right of eminent domain. The Series asset management fee for Series 1 – The Blue Crab is 25%.

Each Series will bear all expenses of the applicable Underlying Asset and shall reimburse the Asset Manager for any such expenses paid by the Asset Manager on behalf of the applicable Series together with a reasonable rate of interest.

Duration and Termination: Each Asset Management Agreement shall expire one year after the date on which the applicable Underlying Asset has been liquidated and the obligations connected to such Underlying Assets (including, without limitation, contingent obligations) have terminated.

Allocation of Expenses

Investment.com will initially be responsible for all offering expenses and will be reimbursed by the Series through the proceeds of the Series offering for offering expenses actually incurred. In general, these costs include legal, accounting, escrow, underwriting, filing and compliance costs, as applicable, related to the offering. If not otherwise available for payment out offering proceeds, Investment.com will also initially be responsible for the Series’ acquisition expenses and the Series will reimburse our Manager for such costs as well as for certain other costs. To facilitate the foregoing, our Manager has advanced the Company $1,000,000.

In addition, each Series will be responsible for the costs and expenses attributable to the activities of the Company related to the Series including, but not limited to:

●	fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the management of the Underlying Assets and preparing any reports and accounts of the Series, including, but not limited to, audits of the Series’ annual financial statements, tax filings and the circulation of reports to investors;
●	insurance premiums or expenses;
●	withholding or transfer taxes imposed on the Company or the Series or any of the members;

	If any fees, costs and expenses of the Company are not allocable to a specific Series, they will be borne proportionately across all of the Series (which may include future Series to be issued). The Manager will allocate fees, costs and expenses acting reasonably and in accordance with its allocation policy.

Regulation

As an owner/operator of vacation rental properties, we are subject to federal, state and local regulations governing short-term rental operations, most notably tax regulations and licensing requirements that differ from state to state and city to city.

We are also subject to federal state and local laws that affect property ownership generally, including environmental laws, certificates of occupancy limitations, and laws related to accommodations for persons with disabilities. See the discussion in “Risk Factors” regarding some of these regulations and the risks they pose for our business.

Vacation/Short-Term Rentals

Property Overview

Series 1 – The Blue Crab

On November 1, 2022, Investment.com Collection established Series 1 – The Blue Crab for the purpose of acquiring the property at 6437 Randle Ave, Chesapeake Beach, MD 20732 (“The Blue Crab Property”) from a third-party seller. The Company entered into a purchase agreement to purchase The Blue Crab Property on October 23, 2022 and the transaction was closed December 5, 2022. The purchase price was $681,575.00 with total closing costs totaling $767,518.89.

The remaining $364,143.89 required by Series 1 – The Blue Crab to purchase The Blue Crab Property was loaned by our Manager, which loan will be reimbursed through offering proceeds.

Marketing/Distribution Channels

We will market our vacation rental properties primarily through the following platforms:

AirBNB

VRBO

Expedia

Homeaway

Booking.com

Tripadvisor

Flipkey

Each of these platforms enables travelers to search for available lodgings in a particular city or geographic area for the duration of their intended stay. Generally, the platforms facilitate traveler bookings by reserving the days booked at a particular property, accepting traveler payments, including security deposits, remitting payments to us and refunding, as needed, security deposits and payments related to cancellations.

24

Competition

The Company competes with many others engaged in real estate in general and vacation rental operating activities in particular, including but not limited to individuals, corporations, bank and insurance company investment accounts, real estate investment trusts, and private real estate funds. In particular, the Company intends to list its vacation rental properties through established vacation rental booking platforms and the Company’s properties will compete will all other properties listed in those sites in the vicinity of the Company’s properties, as well as other traditional accommodations such as hotels which may have significantly greater resources and the ability to withstand economic downturns or off-peak vacancies. Significant increases in the number of listings for short-term vacation rentals in the geographic areas where the Company’s properties are located, if not met by a similar increase in demand for short-term rentals, is likely to cause downward pressure on rental rates and, potentially, impact the value of the Underlying Asset.

Plan of Operations

The Company will acquire vacation/short-term rental properties located in the United States. Properties may include single family homes, condominium units or small multi-family properties where each unit will be used for short-term rental. The Company intends to choose these properties based on historical data, market analysis and the experience of our real estate acquisitions team. Some factors we will consider in choosing properties are: (i) location, with a preference for vacation destinations, (ii) appreciation potential, (iii) rental history, (iv) property condition, (v) need for repairs or improvements, (vi) property amenities, and (vii) local regulations.

During the next 12 months, we intend to close approximately five additional short-term rental properties; however, current market conditions and available properties will ultimately affect what and how many properties we acquire.

DESCRIPTION OF

PROPERTIES

We share our corporate headquarters with our Manager, for which we do not pay any rent. We believe that such property has been adequately maintained, is generally in good condition, and is suitable and adequate for our business.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Investment.com Collection LLC was formed on October 7, 2022 in the State of Delaware as a series limited liability company. Investment.com Collection is an investment vehicle which intends to enable investors to own fractional ownership of specific Underlying Assets. Since its formation, the Company has been engaged primarily in formulating its business plan, sourcing and performing due diligence on our first properties, and developing the financial, offering and other materials to begin fundraising. We are considered to be a development stage company, since we are devoting substantially all of our efforts to establishing our business.

Results of Operations

The Company has had no significant operations and no revenues since that date.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Due to its recent formation, the Company has no cash, assets or liabilities reflected on its balance sheet. The Company’s capital resources would be derived from operating cash flow, once it has raised sufficient funds through the offering of Series Interests to acquire assets. The Series will be dependent on the net proceeds from this offering for funding to acquire these assets. For information regarding the anticipated use of proceeds from this offering, see “Use of Proceeds.”

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company is newly formed and has not generated revenue from operations. The Company will require additional capital until revenue from operations are sufficient to cover operational costs. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

During the next 12 months, the Company intends to fund operations through Manager advances and debt and/or equity financing. There are no assurances that management will be able to raise capital on terms acceptable to the Company. If it is unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, it may be required to reduce the scope of its planned development and operations, which could harm its business, financial condition and operating results.

Trend Information

The Company has a limited operating history and no historical operating data for trend analysis. Nonetheless, the Company’s business is subject to general business and economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide along with local, state, and federal governmental policy decisions. Events including, but not limited to: recession, downturn or otherwise; government regulations and political policies; travel restrictions; changes in the real estate market; and interest-rate fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and the results of its operations.

DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND SIGNIFICANT EMPLOYEES

In accordance with the Operating Agreement and the Series Designation for Series 1 – The Blue Crab, Investment.com is the initial member of Series 1 – The Blue Crab. Investment.com is also the Manager of Investment.com Collection. Investment.com is also the sole member of Investment.com AM. Investment.com, Inc. has not offered prior investment programs that would be considered direct participation programs as defined in FINRA Rule 2310(a)(18) and 2310(b)(3)(D). Investment.com’s officers, directors and key employees are as follows:

Name	Position	Age	Term of Office (if indefinite, give date appointed)	Full Time/ Part Time

COMPENSATION OF MANAGER

As the date of this Offering Circular, the Company has not compensated any director or executive officer of Investment.com for their services to Investment.com Collection. Rather, Investment.com will receive management fees from the Company as below described and Investment.com AM, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Investment.com Collection, will receive Series asset management fees as discussed in “Business Description – Asset Management Agreement with Investment.com AM.” Our Manager is also entitled to receive 20% of the monies available for distribution upon dissolution of a Series.

Investment.com Fees

Management Fee. On a quarterly basis beginning on the first quarter end date following the initial closing date of the issuance of Series Interests, the Series shall pay our Manager an asset management fee, payable quarterly in arrears, equal to 0.25% (1% annualized) of Asset Value as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter.

 “Asset Value” at any date means the fair market value of assets in a Series representing the purchase price that a willing buyer having all relevant knowledge would pay a willing seller for such assets in an arm’s length transaction, determined by the Manager in its sole discretion.

Service Fee. A portion of the proceeds from each offering will be paid to our Manager as a service fee. The service fee represents a fee payable in connection with the search and negotiation of the Underlying Asset purchase and coordination of the work needed to prepare the Underlying Asset for operation. Our Manager determines this fee and sets the amount between 10-15% of the contractual purchase price of the relevant Underlying Asset acquired by the Series plus, for real estate assets 10-15% of the anticipated costs of repairs and furnishings (but not capital expenditures) required to prepare the property for listing and rent.

INTEREST OF MANAGEMENT AND OTHERS IN CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

Related Party Transactions

Except as described herein (or within the section entitled “Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers” of this report), none of the following parties (each a “Related Party”) has, since inception, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction with us or in any presently proposed transaction that has or will materially affect us:

● any of our Manager, or its executives, directors, or 10% or more shareholders;

● any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to our outstanding interests; or

Series 1 – The Blue Crab has entered into an Asset Management Agreement with Investment.com AM, a wholly owned subsidiary of Investment.com. See “The Company’s Business – Asset Management Agreement with Investment.com AM” for a description of this agreement.

During the period ended October 31, 2022, Investment.com loaned to the Company $1,000,000, from which the Company has paid formation and offering expenses and the purchase price for The Series 1 – Blue Crab Property and will use to pay for any other expenses to be advanced by the Company. The note is due on demand and will bear interest at a rate equal to the minimum Applicable Federal Rate (“AFR”) as published by the Internal Revenue Service on a month-to-month basis; this rate is 3.35% for the month of October 2022. A portion of repayment of this loan will be allocated to Series 1 – The Blue Crab in accordance with the Company’s Allocation policy.

Our Manager has been issued membership interests in our Company and is the initial member of Series 1 – The Blue Crab. As a member, our Manager has executed and is a party to our Operating Agreement.

Conflicts of Interest

The Company is subject to various conflicts of interest arising out of its relationship with Investment.com, the Company’s Manager, and its affiliates. These conflicts are discussed below.

The officer and director of Investment.com is also the key professional of Investment.com AM and has legal obligations with respect to those entities that are similar to their obligations to the Company. In addition, in the future, any officers or directors of Investment.com and other affiliates of Investment.com may organize other real estate-related entities.

From time to time, Investment.com may create new entities that will acquire real estate assets and make offers of securities to accredited foreign or other investors under Regulation D or Regulation A or otherwise. Investment.com will, in its sole discretion determine which entity will be responsible for acquiring a specific asset.

The Company relies on Investment.com’s professionals and other staff, who act on behalf of Investment.com and the Company for the day-to-day operation of their respective businesses. Mr. Sasso is the sole officer and director of Investment.com, the Manager of the Company and each Series, as well as the manager of Investment.com AM and the other subsidiaries of Investment.com. As a result of his interests in other Investment.com entities, his obligations to other investors and the fact that he engages in and will continue to engage in other business activities on behalf of himself and others, Mr. Sasso will face conflicts of interest in allocating his time among the Company, Investment.com, other related entities and other business activities in which he is involved. However, the Company believes that Investment.com and its affiliates have sufficient real estate professionals to fully discharge their responsibilities to the Investment.com entities for which they work.

27

Our Manager’s interests in our revenues and distributions may cause its management to make more risky business decisions than they would otherwise in the absence of such carried interest.

Certain legal, accounting and other advisors, including real estate brokers, of our Company may also serve as representatives or agents of our Manager or its members or affiliates. As a result, conflicts of interests could arise and in such cases, such representatives or agents may have to withdraw from representation of our Company if such conflicts cannot be resolved.

The Company does not have any formal policies in place to resolve conflicts of interest.

Furthermore, no transfer of any Series Interests, whether voluntary or involuntary, will be valid or effective unless the Manager determines, after consultation with legal counsel acting for the Company that such transfer will not, unless waived by the Manager:

● result in the transferee directly or indirectly owning in excess of 9.8% of the aggregate outstanding Series Interests;

● result in there being 2,000 or more beneficial owners (as such term is used under the Exchange Act) or 500 or more beneficial owners that are not accredited investors (as defined under the Securities Act) of any Series, as specified in Section 12(g)(1)(A) (ii) of the Exchange Act, unless the Series Interests have been registered under the Exchange Act or the Company is otherwise an Exchange Act reporting company;

● cause all or any portion of the assets of the Company or any Series to constitute plan assets for purposes of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974;

There can be no assurance that we will, or will be able to, register the interests for resale and there can be no guarantee that a liquid market for the interests will develop. Therefore, investors may be required to hold their interests indefinitely. Please refer to our Operating Agreement and the subscription agreement for additional information regarding these restrictions. To the extent certificated, the interests issued in each offering will bear a legend setting forth these restrictions on transfer and any legends required by federal and state securities laws.

The transferring interest holder is responsible for all costs and expenses arising in connection with any proposed transfer (regardless of whether such transfer is completed) including any legal fees incurred by the Company or any broker or dealer, any costs or expenses in connection with any opinion of counsel and any transfer taxes and filing fees. Our Manager or its affiliates will acquire interests in each Series for their own accounts and may, from time to time and only in accordance with applicable securities laws (which may include filing an amendment to this offering circular), transfer these interests, either directly or through brokers or otherwise.

Voting Rights

No annual meeting of members is required. Investors have limited voting rights, and substantial powers are delegated to our Manager. When applicable, a holder of a Series Interest, is entitled to one vote per Series Interest on any and all matters submitted for the consent or approval of members generally. No separate vote or consent of the holders of Series Interests of a specific Series shall be required for the approval of any matter, except for matters specified in the Series Designation of such Series.

For each existing Series, the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than a majority of the Series Interests of the Series then outstanding shall be required for: (a) any amendment to the Operating Agreement (including the Series Designation) that would adversely change the rights of such Series Interests; (b) mergers, consolidations or conversions of such Series; and (c) all such other matters as the Manager, in its sole discretion, determines shall require the approval of the holders of the outstanding Series Interests of such Series voting as a separate class.

If the Manager is so removed, the members, by a plurality vote, may appoint a replacement managing member or approve the liquidation and termination of the Company and each Series in accordance with the provisions of Article XI of the Operating Agreement. In the event of the resignation of the Manager, the Manager shall nominate a successor Manager and the vote of a majority of the outstanding Series Interests shall be required to elect such successor Manager. The Manager shall continue to serve as the Manager of the Company until such date as a successor Manager is so elected.

Restrictions of Transfers related to REIT Qualification

In order for any of our Series to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, Series Interests of each such Series must be owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months (other than the first year for which an election to be taxed as a REIT has been made) or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year. Also, under Section 856(h) of the Internal Revenue Code, a REIT cannot be “closely held.” In this regard, not more than 50% of the value of a series interests may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code to include certain entities) during the last half of a taxable year (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made). See the section entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in this offering circular for further discussion on this topic.

The relevant sections of our Operating Agreement provide that, after the completion of an offering of a Series and subject to the exceptions described below, no person or entity may own, or be deemed to own, by virtue of the applicable constructive ownership provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, more than 9.8% (in value or number of interests, whichever is more restrictive) of the aggregate of our outstanding interests or total capital stock or more than 9.8% (in value or number of interests, whichever is more restrictive) of a Series’ Interests when such Series is to be taxed as a REIT; we refer to these limitations as the “ownership limits.”

The constructive ownership rules under the Internal Revenue Code are complex and may cause interests actually or constructively by a group of related individuals or entities to be owned constructively by one individual or entity. As a result, the acquisition of less than 9.8% in value of the aggregate of our outstanding Series Interests or total capital stock of a Series and 9.8% (in value or in number of interests, whichever is more restrictive) of any series (or the acquisition of an interest in an entity that owns, actually or constructively, stock by an individual or entity) could, nevertheless, cause that individual or entity, or another individual or entity, to violate the ownership limits.

Our Manager may, upon receipt of certain representations, undertakings and agreements and in its sole discretion, exempt (prospectively or retroactively) any person from the ownership limits and establish a different limit, or excepted holder limit, for a particular person if the person’s ownership in excess of the ownership limits will not then or in the future result in us failing the “closely held” test under Section 856(h) of the Internal Revenue Code (without regard to whether the person’s interest is held during the last half of a taxable year) or otherwise cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT. In order to be considered by our manager for exemption, a person also must not own, actually or constructively, an interest in one of our tenants (or a tenant of any entity which we own or control) that would cause us to own, actually or constructively, more than a 9.9% interest in the tenant unless the revenue derived by us from such tenant is sufficiently small that, in the opinion of our manager, rent from such tenant would not adversely affect our ability to qualify as a REIT. The person seeking an exemption must provide such representations and undertakings to the satisfaction of our manager that it will not violate these two restrictions. The person also must agree that any violation or attempted violation of these restrictions will result in the automatic transfer to a trust of the interests causing the violation. As a condition of granting an exemption or creating an excepted holder limit, our manager may, but is not be required to, obtain an opinion of counsel or private ruling from the Service satisfactory to our manager with respect to our qualification as a REIT and may impose such other conditions or restrictions as it deems appropriate.

29

In connection with granting an exemption from the ownership limits or establishing an excepted holder limit or at any other time, our manager may increase or decrease the ownership limits. Any decrease in the ownership limits will not be effective for any person whose percentage ownership of a series interests is in excess of such decreased limits until such person’s percentage ownership of the series interests equals or falls below such decreased limits (other than a decrease as a result of a retroactive change in existing law, which will be effective immediately), but any further acquisition of the series’ interests in excess of such percentage ownership will be in violation of the applicable limits. Our manager may not increase or decrease the ownership limits if, after giving effect to such increase or decrease, five or fewer persons could beneficially own or constructively own in the aggregate more than 49.9% in value of the interests of a series then outstanding. Prior to any modification of the ownership limits, our manager may require such opinions of counsel, affidavits, undertakings or agreements as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure our qualification as a REIT.

Our Operating Agreement further prohibits:

● any person from beneficially or constructively owning, applying certain attribution rules of the Internal Revenue Code, stock that would result in us failing the “closely held” test under Section 856(h) of the Internal Revenue Code (without regard to whether the investor’s interest is held during the last half of a taxable year) or otherwise cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT; and

● any person from transferring a series interests if such transfer would result in a series interests being beneficially owned by fewer than 100 persons (determined without reference to any rules of attribution).

Any person who acquires or attempts or intends to acquire beneficial or constructive ownership of a Series’ Interests that will or may violate the ownership limits or any of the other foregoing restrictions on ownership and transfer of a series interests will be required to immediately give written notice to us or, in the case of a proposed or attempted transaction, give at least 15 days’ prior written notice to us, and provide us with such other information as we may request in order to determine the effect of such transfer on our qualification as a REIT. The ownership limits and the other restrictions on ownership and transfer of a series interests will not apply if our manager determines that it is no longer in our best interests to continue to qualify as a REIT or that compliance with the restrictions on ownership and transfer of our Series Interests is no longer required in order for us to qualify as a REIT.

If any transfer of Series Interests would result in the Series Interests being beneficially owned by fewer than 100 persons, such transfer will be void from the time of such purported transfer and the intended transferee will acquire no rights in such Series Interests. In addition, if any purported transfer of a series interests or any other event would otherwise result in any person violating the ownership limits or such other limit established by our board of directors, our board of directors may take such action as it deems advisable to refuse to give effect to or to prevent such transfer, including, but not limited to, causing us to redeem interests, refusing to give effect to the transfer on our books or instituting proceedings to enjoin the transfer.

Every owner of more than 5% (or such lower percentage as required by the Internal Revenue Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder) of the outstanding interests of a series, will be required to give written notice to us within 30 days after the end of each taxable year stating the name and address of such owner, the number of interests that the person beneficially owns and a description of the manner in which such interests are held. Each such owner will be required to provide to us such additional information as we may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of such beneficial ownership on our qualification as a REIT and to ensure compliance with the ownership limits. In addition, each will, upon demand, be required to provide to us such information as we may request, in good faith, in order to determine our qualification as a REIT and to comply with the requirements of any taxing authority or governmental authority or to determine such compliance.

These restrictions on ownership and transfer of our Series Interests could delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change in control that might involve a premium price for our Series Interests or otherwise be in the best interest of our investors.

Reports to Members

Our Manager must keep appropriate books and records with respect to the business of the Company and each Series business. The books of the Company shall be maintained, for tax and financial reporting purposes, on an accrual basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP, unless otherwise required by applicable law or other regulatory disclosure requirement. For financial reporting purposes and tax purposes, the fiscal year and the tax year are the calendar year, unless otherwise determined by our Manager in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code.

The Company will be required to make annual and semi-annual filings with the SEC. The Company will make annual filings on Form 1- K, and will include audited financial statements for the previous fiscal year. The Company will make semi-annual filings on Form 1-SA, which will include unaudited financial statements for the six months to June 30. The Company will also file a Form 1-U to announce important events such as the loss of a senior officer, a change in auditors, or certain types of capital-raising. The Company will be required to keep making these reports unless it files a Form 1-Z to exit the reporting system, which it will only be able to do if it has less than 300 unitholders of record and have filed at least one Form 1-K.

30

Under the Securities Act, the Company must update this Offering Circular upon the occurrence of certain events, such as asset acquisitions. At least every 12 months while this offering is open, the Company will file a post-qualification amendment to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part, to include the Company’s recent financial statements and updated disclosures. The Company may supplement the information in this Offering Circular by filing a Supplement with the SEC.

All these filings will be available on the SEC’s EDGAR filing system and the Investment.com platform. You should read all the available information before investing.

Distribution Upon Liquidation of a Series

Subject to the terms of our Operating Agreement and any specific Series Designation, any amounts available for distribution following the liquidation of a Series, net of any fees, costs and liabilities (as determined by the Manager in its sole discretion), will be applied and distributed as follows:

 ● First, 100% to the members on a pro rata basis (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include the Manager and its Affiliates if they hold Series Interests) until the members have received back 100% of their capital contribution; and

 ● Second, 20% to our Manager and 80% to the members on a pro rata basis (including our Manager and its Affiliates if they hold Series Interests).

Other Rights

Holders of Series Interests shall have no conversion, exchange, sinking fund, appraisal rights, no preemptive rights to subscribe for any securities of the Company and no preferential rights to distributions of Series Interests.

Forum Selection Provisions

The Company’s Operating Agreement includes a forum selection provision that requires any suit, action, or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with the Operating Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, excluding matters arising under the federal securities laws, be brought in state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located within the State of Delaware.

This forum selection provision 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.

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to each of the applicable Series’, including Series 1 – The Blue Crab, qualification and taxation as a REIT and the acquisition, holding, and disposition of Series Interests. For purposes of this section, references to “we,” “us” or “the Company” means each of the Series, individually, except as otherwise indicated. This summary is based upon the Internal Revenue Code, the regulations promulgated by the U.S. Treasury Department, current administrative interpretations and practices of the IRS (including administrative interpretations and practices expressed in private letter rulings which are binding on the IRS only with respect to the particular taxpayers who requested and received those rulings) and judicial decisions, all as currently in effect and all of which are subject to differing interpretations or to change, possibly with retroactive effect. No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of the tax considerations described below. No advance ruling has been or will be sought from the IRS regarding any matter discussed in this summary. The summary is also based upon the assumption that the operation of the Company, and of any subsidiaries and other lower-tier affiliated entities, will be in accordance with its applicable organizational documents and as described in this offering circular. This summary is for general information only, and does not purport to discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to a particular in light of its investment or tax circumstances or to investors subject to special tax rules, such as:

31

● U.S. expatriates;

● persons who mark-to-market our Series Interests;

● subchapter S corporations;

● U.S. investors who are U.S. persons (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

● financial institutions;

● insurance companies;

● broker-dealers;

● REITs;

● regulated investment companies;

● trusts and estates;

● holders who receive our Series Interests through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation;

● persons holding our Series Interests as part of a “straddle,” “hedge,” “short sale,” “conversion transaction,” “synthetic security” or other integrated investment;

● non-corporate taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code;

● persons holding our Series Interests through a partnership or similar pass-through entity;

● persons holding a 10% or more (by vote or value) beneficial interest in the Company;

● tax exempt organizations, except to the extent discussed below in “—Treatment of Tax Exempt U.S. investors;” and

● non-U.S. persons (as defined below), except to the extent discussed below in “—U.S. Taxation of Non-U.S. investors.”

Except to a limited extent noted below, this summary does not address state, local or non-U.S. tax considerations. This summary assumes that investors will hold our Series Interests as capital assets, within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code, which generally means as property held for investment.

For the purposes of this summary, a U.S. person is a beneficial owner of our Series Interests who for U.S. federal income tax purposes is:

● a citizen or resident of the United States;

● a corporation (including an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of a political subdivision thereof (including the District of Columbia);

● an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

● any trust if (1) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) it has a valid election in place to be treated as a U.S. person.

For the purposes of this summary, a U.S. investor is a beneficial owner of our Series Interests who is a U.S. person. A tax exempt organization is a U.S. person who is exempt from U.S. federal income tax under Section 401(a) or 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. For the purposes of this summary, a non-U.S. person is a beneficial owner of our Series Interests who is a nonresident alien individual or a non-U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and a non-U.S. investor is a beneficial owner of our Series Interests who is a non-U.S. person. The term “corporation” includes any entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the term “partnership” includes any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

32

The information in this section is based on the current Code, current, temporary and proposed Treasury Regulations, the legislative history of the Internal Revenue Code, current administrative interpretations and practices of the IRS, including its practices and policies as endorsed in private letter rulings, which are not binding on the IRS except in the case of the taxpayer to whom a private letter ruling is addressed, and existing court decisions. Future legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations and court decisions could change current law or adversely affect existing interpretations of current law, possibly with retroactive effect. Any change could apply retroactively. We have not obtained any rulings from the IRS concerning the tax treatment of the matters discussed below. Thus, it is possible that the IRS could challenge the statements in this discussion that do not bind the IRS or the courts and that a court could agree with the IRS.

THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX TREATMENT OF HOLDERS OF OUR INTERESTS DEPENDS IN SOME INSTANCES ON DETERMINATIONS OF FACT AND INTERPRETATIONS OF COMPLEX PROVISIONS OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAW FOR WHICH NO CLEAR PRECEDENT OR AUTHORITY MAY BE AVAILABLE. IN ADDITION, THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF HOLDING OUR INTERESTS TO ANY PARTICULAR INVESTOR WILL DEPEND ON THE INVESTOR’S PARTICULAR TAX CIRCUMSTANCES. YOU ARE URGED TO CONSULT YOUR TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND NON-U.S. INCOME AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU, IN LIGHT OF YOUR PARTICULAR INVESTMENT OR TAX CIRCUMSTANCES, OF ACQUIRING, HOLDING, AND DISPOSING OF OUR INTERESTS.

Taxation of Our Company

We intend to elect to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, commencing with the taxable year ending December 31, 2021. A REIT generally is not subject to U.S. federal income tax on the income that it distributes to its investors if it meets the applicable REIT distribution and other requirements for qualification. We believe that we will be organized, owned and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, and that our proposed ownership, organization and method of operation will enable us to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. However, given the highly complex nature of the rules governing REITs, the ongoing importance of factual determinations (including with respect to matters that we may not control or for which it is not possible to obtain all the relevant facts) and the possibility of future changes in our circumstances or applicable law, no assurance can be given by us that we will so qualify for any particular year or that the IRS will not challenge our conclusions with respect to our satisfaction of the REIT requirements.

Qualification and taxation as a REIT depends on our ability to meet, on a continuing basis, through actual results of operations, distribution levels, diversity of share ownership and various qualification requirements imposed upon REITs by the Internal Revenue Code, discussed below. In addition, our ability to qualify as a REIT may depend in part upon the operating results, organizational structure and entity classification for U.S. federal income tax purposes of certain entities in which we invest, which we may not control. Our ability to qualify as a REIT also requires that we satisfy certain asset and income tests, some of which depend upon the fair market values of assets directly or indirectly owned by us. Such values may not be susceptible to a precise determination. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the actual results of our operations for any taxable year will satisfy the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT.

Taxation of REITs in General

Provided that we qualify as a REIT, we will generally be entitled to a deduction for dividends that we pay and, therefore, will not be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on our net taxable income that is currently distributed to our investors. This treatment substantially eliminates the “double taxation” at the corporate and levels that results generally from investment in a corporation. Rather, income generated by a REIT is generally taxed only at the level, upon a distribution of dividends by the REIT.

Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we will be subject to U.S. federal income taxation as follows:

● We will be subject to regular U.S. federal corporate tax on any undistributed income, including capital gain and undistributed cashless income such as accrued but unpaid interest.

● If we have net income from “prohibited transactions,” which are, in general, sales or other dispositions of property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business, other than foreclosure property, such income will be subject to a 100% tax. See “—Prohibited Transactions” and “— Foreclosure property” below.

33

● If we elect to treat property that we acquire in connection with a foreclosure of a mortgage loan or from certain leasehold terminations as “foreclosure property,” we may thereby avoid (1) the 100% tax on gain from a resale of that property (if the sale would otherwise constitute a prohibited transaction) and (2) treating any income from such property as non-qualifying for purposes of the REIT gross income tests discussed below, provided however, that the gain from the sale of the property or net income from the operation of the property that would not otherwise qualify for the 75% income test but for the foreclosure property election will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax at the highest applicable rate (currently 21%).

● If we fail to satisfy the 75% gross income test or the 95% gross income test, as discussed below, but nonetheless maintain our qualification as a REIT because other requirements are met, we will be subject to a 100% tax on an amount equal to (1) the greater of (A) the amount by which we fail the 75% gross income test or (B) the amount by which we fail the 95% gross income test, as the case may be, multiplied by (2) a fraction intended to reflect profitability.

● If we fail to satisfy any of the REIT asset tests, as described below, other than a failure of the 5% or 10% REIT asset tests that do not exceed a statutory de minimis amount as described more fully below, but our failure is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect and we nonetheless maintain our REIT qualification because of specified cure provisions, we will be required to pay a tax equal to the greater of $50,000 or the highest corporate tax rate of the net income generated by the non-qualifying assets during the period in which we failed to satisfy the asset tests.

● If we fail to satisfy any provision of the Internal Revenue Code that would result in our failure to qualify as a REIT (other than a gross income or asset test requirement) and the violation is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, we may retain our REIT qualification but we will be required to pay a penalty of $50,000 for each such failure.

● If we fail to distribute during each calendar year at least the sum of (1) 85% of our REIT ordinary income for such year, (2) 95% of our REIT capital gain net income for such year and (3) any undistributed taxable income from prior periods (or the required distribution), we will be subject to a 4% excise tax on the excess of the required distribution over the sum of (A) the amounts actually distributed (taking into account excess distributions from prior years), plus (B) retained amounts on which income tax is paid at the corporate level.

● We may be required to pay monetary penalties to the IRS in certain circumstances, including if we fail to meet record-keeping requirements intended to monitor our compliance with rules relating to the composition of our investors, as described below in “—Requirements for Qualification as a REIT.”

● A 100% excise tax may be imposed on some items of income and expense that are directly or constructively paid between us and any taxable REIT subsidiary, or TRS, and any other TRSs we may own if and to the extent that the IRS successfully adjusts the reported amounts of these items because the reported amounts were not consistent with arm’s length amounts.

● If we acquire appreciated assets from a corporation that is not a REIT in a transaction in which the adjusted tax basis of the assets in our hands is determined by reference to the adjusted tax basis of the assets in the hands of the non-REIT corporation, we may be subject to tax on such appreciation at the highest U.S. federal corporate income tax rate then applicable if we subsequently recognize gain on a disposition of any such assets during the 5-year period following their acquisition from the non-REIT corporation.

● We may elect to retain and pay U.S. federal income tax on our net long-term capital gain. In that case, an investor would include its proportionate share of our undistributed long-term capital gain in its income (to the extent we make a timely designation of such gain to the), would be deemed to have paid the tax that it paid on such gain, and would be allowed a credit for its proportionate share of the tax deemed to have been paid, and an adjustment would be made to increase the investor’s basis in their ownership of our Series Interests.

● We may own subsidiaries that will elect to be treated as TRSs and we may hold equity interests in our borrowers or other investments through such TRSs, the earnings of which will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax.

No assurance can be given that the amount of any such U.S. federal income or excise taxes will not be substantial. In addition, we may be subject to a variety of taxes other than U.S. federal income tax, including state, local, and non-U.S. income, franchise property and other taxes. We could also be subject to tax in situations and on transactions not presently contemplated.

34

Requirements for Qualification as a REIT

We intend to elect to be taxable as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our taxable year ending December 31, 2023 and for all subsequent taxable years. In order to have so qualified, we must meet and continue to meet the requirements discussed below (or as in effect for prior years), relating to our organization, ownership, sources of income, nature of assets and distributions of income to investors.

The Internal Revenue Code defines a REIT as a corporation, trust or association:

(1) that is managed by one or more trustees or directors;

(2) the beneficial ownership of which is evidenced by transferable interests or by transferable certificates of beneficial interest;

(3) that would be taxable as a domestic corporation but for its election to be subject to tax as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code;

(4) that is neither a financial institution nor an insurance company subject to specific provisions of the Internal Revenue Code;

(5) commencing with its second REIT taxable year, the beneficial ownership of which is held by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months, or during a proportionate part of a taxable year of less than 12 months;

(6) in which, commencing with its second REIT taxable year, during the last half of each taxable year, not more than 50% in value of the outstanding stock is owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer “individuals” as defined in the Internal Revenue Code to include specified entities (the “5/50 Test”);

(7) that makes an election to be a REIT for the current taxable year or has made such an election for a previous taxable year that has not been terminated or revoked and satisfies all relevant filing and other administrative requirements established by the IRS that must be met to elect and maintain REIT status;

(8) that has no earnings and profits from any non-REIT taxable year at the close of any taxable year;

(9) that uses the calendar year for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and complies with the record-keeping requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder; and

(10) that meets other tests described below, including with respect to the nature of its income and assets and the amount of its distributions.

For purposes of condition (1), “directors” generally means persons treated as “directors” for purposes of the Investment Company Act, which we believe includes the manager. Our interests are generally freely transferable, and we believe that the restrictions on ownership and transfers of our Series Interests do not prevent us from satisfying condition (2). We believe that the interests sold in our Series offerings will allow us to timely comply with condition (6). However, depending on the number of investors who subscribe for interests in a Series offering and the timing of subscriptions, we may need to conduct an additional offering of a Series’ interests to timely comply with (5). For purposes of determining stock ownership under condition (6) above, a certain stock bonus, pension, or profit sharing plan, a supplemental unemployment compensation benefits plan, a private foundation and a portion of a trust permanently set aside or used exclusively for charitable purposes generally are each considered an individual. A trust that is a qualified trust under Code Section 401(a) generally is not considered an individual, and beneficiaries of a qualified trust generally are treated as holding interests of a REIT in proportion to their actuarial interests in the trust for purposes of condition (6) above.

To monitor compliance with our ownership requirements, we are generally required to maintain records regarding the actual ownership of our Series Interests. Provided we comply with these recordkeeping requirements and that we would not otherwise have reason to believe we fail the 5/50 Test after exercising reasonable diligence, we will be deemed to have satisfied the 5/50 Test. In addition, the operating agreement provides restrictions regarding the ownership and transfer of our Series Interests, which are intended to assist us in satisfying the ownership requirements described above.

For purposes of condition (9) above, we will use a calendar year for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and we intend to comply with the applicable recordkeeping requirements.

35

Effect of Subsidiary Entities

Ownership of Partnership interests

In the case of a REIT that is a partner in an entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the REIT is deemed to own its proportionate share of the partnership’s assets and to earn its proportionate share of the partnership’s gross income based on its pro rata share of capital interests in the partnership for purposes of the asset and gross income tests applicable to REITs, as described below. However, solely for purposes of the 10% value test, described below, the determination of a REIT’s interest in partnership assets will be based on the REIT’s proportionate interest in any securities issued by the partnership, excluding for these purposes, certain excluded securities as described in the Internal Revenue Code. For purposes of determining the amount of the REIT’s taxable income that must be distributed, or is subject to tax, the REIT’s share of partnership income is determined under the partnership tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and will reflect any special allocations of income or loss that are not in proportion to capital interests. Income earned through partnerships retains its character for U.S. federal income tax purposes when allocated among its partners. We intend to obtain covenants from any partnerships in which we invest but do not control to operate in compliance with the REIT requirements, but we may not control any particular partnership into which we invest, and thus no assurance can be given that any such partnerships will not operate in a manner that causes us to fail an income or asset test requirement. In general, partnerships are not subject to U.S. federal income tax. However, if a partnership in which we invest is audited, it may be required to pay the hypothetical increase in partner level taxes (including interest and penalties) resulting from an adjustment of partnership tax items on the audit, unless the partnership elects an alternative method under which the taxes resulting from the adjustment (and interest and penalties) are assessed at the partner level. It is possible that partnerships in which we directly and indirectly invest may be subject to U.S. federal income tax, interest and penalties in the event of a U.S. federal income tax audit.

Disregarded Subsidiaries

If a REIT owns a corporate subsidiary that is a “qualified REIT subsidiary,” that subsidiary is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and all assets, liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of the subsidiary are treated as assets, liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of the REIT itself, including for purposes of the gross income and asset tests applicable to REITs, as summarized below. A qualified REIT subsidiary is any corporation, other than a TRS, that is wholly owned by a REIT, by other disregarded subsidiaries of a REIT or by a combination of the two. Single member limited liability companies or other domestic unincorporated entities that are wholly owned by a REIT are also generally disregarded as separate entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes, including for purposes of the REIT gross income and asset tests unless they elect TRS status. Disregarded subsidiaries, along with partnerships in which we hold an equity interest, are sometimes referred to herein as “pass-through subsidiaries.”

In the event that a disregarded subsidiary ceases to be wholly owned by us (for example, if any equity interest in the subsidiary is acquired by a person other than us or another disregarded subsidiary of ours), the subsidiary’s separate existence would no longer be disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Instead, it would have multiple owners and would be treated as either a partnership or a taxable corporation. Such an event could, depending on the circumstances, adversely affect our ability to satisfy the various asset and gross income tests applicable to REITs, including the requirement that REITs generally may not own, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the value or voting power of the outstanding securities of another corporation. See “—Asset Tests” and “—Gross Income Tests.”

Taxable REIT Subsidiaries

A REIT, in general, may jointly elect with a subsidiary corporation, whether or not wholly owned, to treat the subsidiary corporation as a TRS. The separate existence of a TRS or other taxable corporation, unlike a disregarded subsidiary as discussed above, is not ignored for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, such an entity would generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income, which may reduce the cash flow generated by us and our subsidiaries in the aggregate and our ability to make distributions to our investors.

A REIT is not treated as holding the assets of a TRS or other taxable subsidiary corporation or as receiving any income that the subsidiary earns. Rather, the stock issued by the subsidiary is an asset in the hands of the REIT, and the REIT generally recognizes dividend income when it receives distributions of earnings from the subsidiary. This treatment can affect the gross income and asset test calculations that apply to the REIT, as described below. Because a parent REIT does not include the assets and income of its TRSs in determining the parent REIT’s compliance with the REIT requirements, such entities may be used by the parent REIT to undertake indirectly activities that the REIT rules might otherwise preclude the parent REIT from doing directly or through pass-through subsidiaries. If dividends are paid to us by one or more domestic TRSs we may own, then a portion of the dividends that we distribute to investors who are taxed at individual rates generally will be eligible for taxation at preferential qualified dividend income tax rates rather than at ordinary income rates. See “—Taxation of Taxable U.S. investors” and “—Annual Distribution Requirements.”

36

We may hold any equity interests we receive in our borrowers or certain other investments through one or more TRSs. While we intend to manage the size of our TRSs and dividends from our TRSs in a manner that permits us to qualify as a REIT, it is possible that the equity investments appreciate to the point where our TRSs exceed the thresholds mandated by the REIT rules. In such cases, we could lose our REIT status if we are unable to satisfy certain exceptions for failing to satisfy the REIT income and asset tests. In any event, any earnings attributable to equity interests held in TRSs or origination activity conducted by TRSs will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax.

To the extent we hold an interest in a non-U.S. TRS, potentially including a collateralized debt obligation (“CDO”) investment, we may be required to include our portion of its earnings in our income irrespective of whether or not such non-U.S. TRS has made any distributions. Any such income will not be qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test and may not be qualifying income for purposes of the 95% gross income test.

Certain Equity Investments and Kickers

We expect to hold certain equity investments (with rights to receive preferred economic returns) in entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes and may hold “kickers” in entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and may hold such a kicker outside of a TRS). When we hold investments treated as equity in partnerships, as discussed above, for purposes of the REIT income and asset tests we are required to include our proportionate share of the assets and income of the partnership, based on our share of partnership capital, as if we owned such share of the issuer’s assets directly. As a result, any nonqualifying income generated, or nonqualifying assets held, by the partnerships in which we hold such equity could jeopardize our compliance with the REIT income and asset tests. We intend to obtain covenants from our equity issuers (including a kicker issuer if the kicker is held outside of a TRS) to operate in compliance with the REIT requirements, but we generally will not control such issuers, and thus no assurance can be given that any such issuers will not operate in a manner that causes us to fail an income or asset test requirement. Moreover, at least one IRS internal memorandum would treat the preferred return on certain equity investments as interest income for purposes of the REIT income tests, which treatment would cause such amounts to be nonqualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test. Although we do not believe that interest income treatment is appropriate, and that analysis was not followed in subsequent IRS private letter rulings, the IRS could re-assert that position. In addition, if the underlying property is dealer property and our equity investment (with rights to receive preferred economic returns) is treated as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, our gains from the sale of the property would be subject to 100% tax.

In some, or many, cases, the proper characterization of certain equity investments (with rights to receive preferred economic returns) as unsecured indebtedness or as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes may be unclear. Characterization of such an equity investment as unsecured debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes would subject the investment to the various asset test limitations on investments in unsecured debt, and our preferred return would be treated as non-qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test (but we would not have to include our share of the underlying assets and income of the issuer in our tests). Thus, if the IRS successfully challenged our characterization of an investment as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or successfully treated a preferred return as interest income, we could fail an income or asset test. In that event, we could face substantial penalty taxes to cure the resulting violations, as described in “—Failure to Qualify” below, or, if we were deemed to have acted unreasonably in making the investment, lose our REIT status. Conversely, we also could fail an applicable income or asset test if we have treated a preferred equity investment as indebtedness for U.S. federal income tax purposes and the IRS successfully characterizes the investment as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Gross Income Tests

In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we annually must satisfy two gross income tests. First, at least 75% of our gross income for each taxable year, excluding gross income from sales of inventory or dealer property in “prohibited transactions” and certain hedging and foreign currency transactions, must be derived from investments relating to real property or mortgages on real property, including “rents from real property,” dividends received from and gains from the disposition of other interests of REITs, interest income derived from mortgage loans secured by real property or by interests in real property, and gains from the sale of real estate assets, including personal property treated as real estate assets, as discussed below (but not including certain debt instruments of publicly-offered REITs that are not secured by mortgages on real property or interests in real property), as well as income from certain kinds of temporary investments. interest and gain on debt instruments issued by publicly offered REITs that are not secured by mortgages on real property or interests in real property are not qualifying income for purposes of the 75% income test. Second, at least 95% of our gross income in each taxable year, excluding gross income from prohibited transactions and certain hedging and foreign currency transactions, must be derived from some combination of income that qualifies under the 75% income test described above, as well as other dividends, interest, and gain from the sale or disposition of stock or securities, which need not have any relation to real property.

37

Hedging Transactions

We may enter into hedging transactions with respect to one or more of our assets or liabilities. Hedging transactions could take a variety of forms, including interest rate swap agreements, interest rate cap agreements, options, forward rate agreements or similar financial instruments. Except to the extent provided by Treasury Regulations, any income from a hedging transaction, including gain from the sale or disposition of such a transaction, will not constitute gross income for purposes of the 75% or 95% gross income test if (i) we enter into the hedging transaction in the normal course of business primarily to manage risk of interest rate or price changes or currency fluctuations with respect to borrowings made or to be made, or ordinary obligations incurred or to be incurred, to acquire or carry real estate assets, and the hedge is clearly identified as specified in Treasury regulations before the close of the day on which it was acquired, originated, or entered into, (ii) we enter into the hedging transaction primarily to manage risk of currency fluctuations with respect to any item of income or gain that would be qualifying income under the 75% or 95% gross income tests and the hedge is clearly identified as such before the close of the day on which it was acquired, originated, or entered into, or (iii) we enter into the hedging transaction that hedges against transactions described in clause (i) or (ii) and is entered into in connection with the extinguishment of debt or sale of property that are being hedged against by the transactions described in clauses (i) or (ii) and the hedge complies with certain identification requirements. To the extent that we enter into other types of hedging transactions, including hedges of interest rates on debt we acquire as assets, or do not make proper tax identifications, as applicable, the income from those transactions is likely to be treated as non-qualifying income for purposes of both of the 75% and 95% gross income tests. We intend to structure any hedging transactions in a manner that does not jeopardize its qualification as a REIT. No assurances can be given, however, that our hedging activities will not give rise to income that does not qualify for purposes of either or both of the gross income tests and that such income will not adversely affect our ability to satisfy the REIT qualification requirements.

Rents from Real Property

We expect to acquire interests in real property (through majority-owned subsidiaries with rights to receive preferred economic returns) and may acquire other interests in real property (including equity participations). However, to the extent that we own real property or interests therein, rents we receive qualify as “rents from real property” in satisfying the gross income tests described above, only if several conditions are met, including the following. If rent attributable to personal property leased in connection with a lease of real property is greater than 15% of the total rent received under any particular lease (determined based on the fair market values as of the beginning and end of the taxable year), then all of the rent attributable to such personal property will not qualify as rents from real property. The determination of whether an item of personal property constitutes real or personal property under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code is subject to both legal and factual considerations and therefore can be subject to different interpretations.

In addition, in order for rents received by us to qualify as “rents from real property,” the rent must not be based in whole or in part on the income or profits derived by any person from such real property. However, an amount will not be excluded from rents from real property solely by reason of being based on a fixed percentage or percentages of sales or if it is based on the net income of a tenant which derives substantially all of its income with respect to such property from subleasing of substantially all of such property, to the extent that the rents paid by the subtenants would qualify as rents from real property, if earned directly by us. Moreover, for rents received to qualify as “rents from real property,” we generally must not furnish or render certain services to the tenants of such property, other than through an “independent contractor” who is adequately compensated and from which we derive no income or through a TRS. We are permitted, however, to perform services that are “usually or customarily rendered” in connection with the rental of space for occupancy only and are not otherwise considered rendered to the occupant of the property. In addition, we may directly or indirectly provide non-customary services to tenants of our properties without disqualifying all of the rent from the property if the payment for such services or, if greater, 150% of our cost of providing such services, does not exceed 1% of the total gross income from the property. In such a case, only the amounts for non-customary services are not treated as rents from real property and the provision of the services does not disqualify the related rent.

Rental income will qualify as rents from real property only to the extent that we do not directly or constructively own, (1) in the case of any tenant which is a corporation, stock possessing 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote, or 10% or more of the total value of interests of all classes of stock of such tenant, or (2) in the case of any tenant which is not a corporation, an interest of 10% or more in the assets or net profits of such tenant.

38

Failure to Satisfy the Gross Income Tests

We intend to monitor our sources of income, including any non-qualifying income received by us, and manage our assets so as to ensure our compliance with the gross income tests. We cannot assure you, however, that we will be able to satisfy the gross income tests. If we fail to satisfy one or both of the 75% or 95% gross income tests for any taxable year, we may still qualify as a REIT for the year if we are entitled to relief under applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. These relief provisions will generally be available if our failure to meet these tests was due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect and, following the identification of such failure, we set forth a description of each item of our gross income that satisfies the gross income tests in a schedule for the taxable year filed in accordance with the Treasury Regulations. It is not possible to state whether we would be entitled to the benefit of these relief provisions in all circumstances. If these relief provisions are inapplicable to a particular set of circumstances involving us, we will not qualify as a REIT. As discussed above under “—Taxation of REITs in General,” even where these relief provisions apply, a tax would be imposed upon the profit attributable to the amount by which we fail to satisfy the particular gross income test.

Asset Tests

At the close of each quarter of our taxable year, we must also satisfy five tests relating to the nature of our assets. First, at least 75% of the value of our total assets must be represented by some combination of “real estate assets,” cash, cash items, and U.S. Government securities. For this purpose, real estate assets include loans secured by mortgages on real property or on interests in real property to the extent described below, certain mezzanine loans and mortgage backed securities as described below, interests in real property (such as land, buildings, leasehold interests in real property and personal property leased with real property if the rents attributable to the personal property would be rents from real property under the income tests discussed above), interests in other qualifying REITs and stock or debt instruments held for less than one year purchased with the proceeds from an offering of stock or certain debt. Second, not more than 25% of our assets may be represented by securities other than those in the 75% asset test. Third, of the assets that do not qualify for purposes of the 75% test and that are not securities of our TRSs: (i) the value of any one issuer’s securities owned by us may not exceed 5% of the value of our gross assets, and (ii) we generally may not own more than 10% of any one issuer’s outstanding securities, as measured by either voting power or value. Fourth, the aggregate value of all securities of TRSs held by us may not exceed 20% of the value of our gross assets. Fifth, not more than 25% of the value of our gross assets may be represented by debt instruments of publicly offered REITs that are not secured by mortgages on real property or interests in real property.

Securities for purposes of the asset tests may include debt securities that are not fully secured by a mortgage on real property (or treated as such). However, the 10% value test does not apply to certain “straight debt” and other excluded securities, as described in the Internal Revenue Code, including any loan to an individual or an estate, any obligation to pay rents from real property and any security issued by a REIT. In addition, (1) a REIT’s interest as a partner in a partnership is not considered a security for purposes of applying the 10% value test; (2) any debt instrument issued by a partnership (other than straight debt or other excluded security) will not be considered a security issued by the partnership if at least 75% of the partnership’s gross income is derived from sources that would qualify for the 75% REIT gross income test; and (3) any debt instrument issued by a partnership (other than straight debt or other excluded security) will not be considered a security issued by the partnership to the extent of the REIT’s interest as a partner in the partnership.

Failure to Satisfy Asset Tests

After initially meeting the asset tests at the close of any quarter, we will not lose our qualification as a REIT for failure to satisfy the asset tests at the end of a later quarter solely by reason of changes in asset values. If we fail to satisfy the asset tests because we acquire assets during a quarter, we can cure this failure by disposing of sufficient non-qualifying assets within 30 days after the close of that quarter. If we fail the 5% asset test, or the 10% vote or value asset tests at the end of any quarter and such failure is not cured within 30 days thereafter, we may dispose of sufficient assets (generally within six months after the last day of the quarter in which the identification of the failure to satisfy these asset tests occurred) to cure such a violation that does not exceed the lesser of 1% of our assets at the end of the relevant quarter or $10,000,000. If we fail any of the other asset tests or our failure of the 5% and 10% asset tests is in excess of the de minimis amount described above, as long as such failure was due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect, we are permitted to avoid disqualification as a REIT, after the 30 day cure period, by taking steps, including the disposition of sufficient assets to meet the asset test (generally within six months after the last day of the quarter in which we identified the failure to satisfy the REIT asset test) and paying a tax equal to the greater of (x) $50,000 or (y) the amount determined by multiplying the net income generated during a specified period by the assets that cause the failure by the highest U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to corporations.

39

Annual Distribution Requirements

In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute dividends, other than capital gain dividends, to our investors in an amount at least equal to:

(a) the sum of:

● 90% of our “REIT taxable income” (computed without regard to its deduction for dividends paid and its net capital gains); and

● 90% of the net income (after tax), if any, from foreclosure property (as described below); minus

(b) the sum of certain items of non-cash income.

These distributions must be paid in the taxable year to which they relate or in the following taxable year if such distributions are declared in October, November or December of the taxable year, are payable to investors of record on a specified date in any such month and are actually paid before the end of January of the following year. Such distributions are treated as both paid by us and received by each on December 31 of the year in which they are declared. In addition, at our election, a distribution for a taxable year may be declared before we timely file our tax return for the year and be paid with or before the first regular dividend payment after such declaration, provided that such payment is made during the 12-month period following the close of such taxable year. These distributions are taxable to our investors in the year in which paid, even though the distributions relate to our prior taxable year for purposes of the 90% distribution requirement.

In order for distributions to be counted towards our distribution requirement and to give rise to a tax deduction by us, they must not be “preferential dividends.” A dividend is not a preferential dividend if it is pro rata among all outstanding shares of stock within a particular class and is in accordance with the preferences among different classes of stock as set forth in the organizational documents. To avoid paying preferential dividends, we must treat every of the class of interests with respect to which we make a distribution the same as every other of that class, and we must not treat any class of interests other than according to its dividend rights as a class. Under certain technical rules governing deficiency dividends, we could lose our ability to cure an under-distribution in a year with a subsequent year deficiency dividend if we pay preferential dividends. Preferential dividends potentially include “dividend equivalent redemptions.” Accordingly, we intend to pay dividends pro rata within each class, and to abide by the rights and preferences of each class of our Series Interests, if there is more than one, and will seek to avoid dividend equivalent redemptions. If, however, we qualify as a “publicly offered REIT” (within the meaning of Section 562(c) of the Internal Revenue Code) in the future, the preferential dividend rules will cease to apply to us. In addition, the IRS is authorized to provide alternative remedies to cure a failure to comply with the preferential dividend rules, but as of the date hereof, no such authorized procedures have been promulgated.

To the extent that we distribute at least 90%, but less than 100%, of our “REIT taxable income,” as adjusted, we will be subject to tax at ordinary U.S. federal corporate tax rates on the retained portion. In addition, we may elect to retain, rather than distribute, our net long-term capital gains and pay tax on such gains. In this case, we could elect to have our investors include their proportionate share of such undistributed long-term capital gains in income and receive a corresponding credit or refund, as the case may be, for their proportionate share of the tax paid by us. Our investors would then increase the adjusted basis of their stock in us by the difference between the designated amounts included in their long-term capital gains and the tax deemed paid with respect to their proportionate interests.

If we fail to distribute during each calendar year at least the sum of (1) 85% of our REIT “ordinary income” for such year as defined in Section 4981(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, (2) 95% of our REIT “capital gain net income” for such year as defined in Section 4981(e)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and (3) 100% of any corresponding undistributed amounts from prior periods, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on the excess of such required distribution over the sum of amounts actually distributed plus retained income from such taxable year on which we paid corporate income tax. We intend to make timely distributions so that we are not subject to the 4% excise tax.

It is possible that we, from time to time, may not have sufficient cash from operations to meet the distribution requirements, for example, due to timing differences between the actual receipt of cash and the inclusion of the corresponding items in income by us for U.S. federal income tax purposes prior to receipt of such income in cash or non-deductible expenditures. In the event that such shortfalls occur, to meet our distribution requirements it might be necessary to arrange for short-term, or possibly long-term, borrowings, use cash reserves, liquidate non-cash assets at rates or times that we regard as unfavorable or pay dividends in the form of taxable stock dividends. In the case of a taxable stock dividend, investors would be required to include the dividend as income and would be required to satisfy the tax liability associated with the distribution with cash from other sources.

40

We may be able to rectify a failure to meet the distribution requirements for a year by paying “deficiency dividends” to investors in a later year, which may be included in our deduction for dividends paid for the earlier year. In this case, we may be able to avoid losing our qualification as a REIT or being taxed on amounts distributed as deficiency dividends. However, we will be required to pay interest and may be required to pay a penalty based on the amount of any deduction taken for deficiency dividends.

In the event that we undertake a transaction (such as a tax-free merger) in which we succeed to earnings and profits of a taxable corporation, in addition to the distribution requirements above we also must distribute such non-REIT earnings and profits to our investors by the close the taxable year of the transaction. Such additional dividends are not deductible against our REIT taxable income. We may be able to rectify a failure to distribute any such non-REIT earnings and profits by making distributions in a later year comparable to deficiency dividends noted above and paying an interest charge.

Liquidating distributions generally will be treated as dividends for purposes of the above rules to the extent of current earnings and profits in the year paid provided we complete our liquidation within 24 months following our adoption of a plan of liquidation. Compliance with this 24-month requirement could require us to sell assets at unattractive prices, distribute unsold assets to a “liquidating trust” for the benefit of our investors, or terminate our status as a REIT. The U.S. federal income tax treatment of a beneficial interest in a liquidating trust would vary significantly from the U.S. federal income treatment of ownership of our Series Interests.

Prohibited Transactions

Net income we derive from a prohibited transaction outside of a TRS is subject to a 100% tax unless the transaction qualifies for a statutory safe harbor discussed below. The term “prohibited transaction” generally includes a sale or other disposition of property (other than foreclosure property) that is held as inventory or primarily for sale to customers, in the ordinary course of a trade or business by a REIT. For purposes of this 100% tax, income earned from a shared appreciation provision in a mortgage loan (see below) is treated as if the REIT sold an interest in the underlying property (thus subjecting such income to 100% tax if we hold the shared appreciation mortgage outside of a TRS and the underlying property is inventory or held for sale). The 100% tax will not apply to gains from the sale of property held through a TRS or other taxable corporations (which are taxed at regular corporate rates).

Foreclosure property

Foreclosure property is real property and any personal property incident to such real property (1) that is acquired by a REIT as a result of the REIT having bid on the property at foreclosure or having otherwise reduced the property to ownership or possession by agreement or process of law after there was a default (or default was imminent) on a lease of the property or a mortgage loan held by the REIT and secured by the property, (2) for which the related loan or lease was acquired by the REIT at a time when default was not imminent or anticipated and (3) for which such REIT makes a proper election to treat the property as foreclosure property. REITs generally are subject to tax at the highest U.S. federal corporate rate on any net income from foreclosure property, including any gain from the disposition of the foreclosure property, other than income that would otherwise be qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test. Any gain from the sale of property for which a foreclosure property election is in effect will not be subject to the 100% tax on gains from prohibited transactions described above, even if the property would otherwise constitute inventory or property held for sale in the hands of the selling REIT.

Failure to Qualify

In the event that we violate a provision of the Internal Revenue Code that would result in our failure to qualify as a REIT, we may nevertheless continue to qualify as a REIT under specified relief provisions available to us to avoid such disqualification if (i) the violation is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, (ii) we pay a penalty of $50,000 for each failure to satisfy a requirement for qualification as a REIT and (iii) the violation does not include a violation under the gross income or asset tests described above (for which other specified relief provisions are available). This cure provision reduces the instances that could lead to our disqualification as a REIT for violations due to reasonable cause. If we fail to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year and none of the relief provisions of the Internal Revenue Code apply, we will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax. Distributions to our investors in any year in which we are not a REIT will not be deductible by us, nor will they be required to be made. In this situation, to the extent of current or accumulated earnings and profits, and, subject to limitations of the Internal Revenue Code, distributions to our investors will generally be taxable as qualified dividend income. Subject to certain limitations, dividends in the hands of our corporate U.S. investors may be eligible for the dividends received deduction. Unless we are entitled to relief under the specific statutory provisions, we will also be disqualified from re-electing to be taxed as a REIT for the four taxable years following a year during which qualification was lost. It is not possible to state whether, in all circumstances, we will be entitled to statutory relief.

41

Taxation of Taxable U.S. Investors

This section summarizes the taxation of U.S. investors that are not tax exempt organizations.

Distributions

Provided that we qualify as a REIT, distributions made to our taxable U.S. investors out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, and not designated as capital gain dividends, will generally be taken into account by them as ordinary dividend income and will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction for corporations. Dividends received from REITs are generally not eligible to be taxed at the preferential qualified dividend income rates applicable to individual U.S. investors who receive dividends from taxable subchapter C corporations. However, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026 and subject to certain limitations, individuals and other non-corporate taxpayers may deduct up to 20% of “qualified REIT dividends.” Qualified REIT dividends eligible for this deduction generally will include our dividends received by a non-corporate U.S. investor that we do not designate as capital gain dividends and that are not qualified dividend income. If we fail to qualify as a REIT, such investors may not claim this deduction with respect to dividends paid by us.

Distributions from us that are designated as capital gain dividends will be taxed to U.S. investors as long-term capital gains, to the extent that they do not exceed our actual net capital gain for the taxable year, without regard to the period for which the U.S. investor has held our Series Interests. To the extent that we elect under the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code to retain our net capital gains, U.S. investors will be treated as having received, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, our undistributed capital gains as well as a corresponding credit or refund, as the case may be, for taxes paid by us on such retained capital gains. U.S. investors will increase their adjusted tax basis in our Series Interests by the difference between their allocable share of such retained capital gain and their share of the tax paid by us. Corporate U.S. investors may be required to treat up to 20% of some capital gain dividends as ordinary income. Long-term capital gains are generally taxable at maximum U.S. federal rates of 20% in the case of U.S. investors who are individuals and 21% for corporations. Capital gains attributable to the sale of depreciable real property held for more than 12 months generally are subject to a 25% maximum U.S. federal income tax rate for U.S. investors who are individuals, to the extent of previously claimed depreciation deductions. Capital gain dividends are not eligible for the dividends-received deduction for corporations.

Distributions from us in excess of our current or accumulated earnings and profits will not be taxable to a U.S. investor to the extent that they do not exceed the adjusted tax basis of the U.S. investor’s interests in respect of which the distributions were made, but rather will reduce the adjusted tax basis of these interests of interests. To the extent that such distributions exceed the adjusted tax basis of a U.S. investor’s interests, they will be treated as gain from the disposition of the interests and thus will be included in income as long-term capital gain, or short-term capital gain if the interests of interests have been held for one year or less.

To the extent that we have available net operating losses and capital losses carried forward from prior tax years, such losses, subject to limitations, may reduce the amount of distributions that must be made in order to comply with the REIT distribution requirements. See “—Taxation of Our Company” and “—Annual Distribution Requirements.” Such losses, however, are not passed through to U.S. investors and do not offset income of U.S. investors from other sources, nor do they affect the character of any distributions that are actually made by us.

Passive Activity Loss and Investment Interest Limitations; No Pass-Through of Losses

Dividends paid by us and gain from the disposition of our Series Interests will not be treated as passive activity income and, therefore, U.S. investors will not be able to apply any “passive losses” against such income. With respect to non-corporate U.S. investors, our dividends (to the extent they do not constitute a return of capital) that are taxed at ordinary income rates will generally be treated as investment income for purposes of the investment interest limitation; however, net capital gain from the disposition of our Series Interests (or distributions treated as such), capital gain dividends, and dividends taxed at net capital gains rates generally will be excluded from investment income except to the extent the U.S. elects to treat such amounts as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. U.S. investors may not include in their own U.S. federal income tax returns any of our net operating or net capital losses.

42

Sales or Dispositions of Our Interests

In general, capital gains recognized by an investor that is not a dealer in securities upon the sale or disposition of our Series Interests will be subject to tax at long-term capital gains rates, if such interests or interests were held for more than one year, and will be taxed at ordinary income rates if such interests of interests were held for one year or less. Gains recognized by U.S. investors that are corporations are subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax, whether or not classified as long-term capital gains.

Capital losses recognized by a U.S. investor upon the disposition of our Series Interests held for more than one year at the time of disposition will be considered long-term capital losses (or short-term capital losses if the interests have not been held for more than one year) and are generally available only to offset capital gain income of the U.S. investor but not ordinary income. In addition, any loss upon a sale or exchange of our Series Interests by a U.S. investor who has held the interests for six months or less, after applying holding period rules, will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of distributions received from us that were required to be treated by the U.S. investor as long-term capital gain.

Liquidating Distributions

Once we have adopted (or are deemed to have adopted) a plan of liquidation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, liquidating distributions received by a U.S. investor with respect to our Series Interests will be treated first as a recovery of the investor’s basis in the interests of interests (computed separately for each block of interests) and thereafter as gain from the disposition of our Series Interests.

Medicare Tax on Unearned Income

U.S. investors that are individuals, estates or trusts may be required to pay an additional 3.8% tax on, among other things, dividends on our Series Interests (without regard to the 20% deduction on ordinary REIT dividends) and capital gains from the sale or other disposition of stock. U.S. investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of this legislation on their ownership and disposition of our Series Interests.

Treatment of Tax Exempt U.S. Investors

U.S. tax exempt entities, including qualified employee pension and profit sharing trusts and individual retirement accounts, generally are exempt from U.S. federal income taxation. However, they are subject to taxation on their unrelated business taxable income, or UBTI. While many investments in real estate may generate UBTI, the IRS has ruled that regular distributions from a REIT to a tax exempt entity do not constitute UBTI. Based on that ruling, and provided that (1) a tax exempt U.S. investor has not held our Series Interests as “debt financed property” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code (that is, where the acquisition or holding of a property is financed through a borrowing by the tax exempt) and (2) we do not hold REMIC residual interests or interests in a taxable mortgage pool that gives rise to “excess inclusion income,” distributions from us and income from the sale of our Series Interests generally should not give rise to UBTI to a tax exempt U.S. investor.

Tax exempt U.S. investors that are social clubs, voluntary employee benefit associations, or supplemental unemployment benefit trusts exempt from U.S. federal income taxation under Sections 501(c)(7), (c)(9), or (c)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code, respectively, are subject to different UBTI rules, which generally will require them to characterize distributions from us as UBTI.

A pension trust (1) that is described in Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, (2) is tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, and (3) that owns more than 10% of a Series; interests could be required to treat a percentage of the dividends from us as UBTI if we are a “pension-held REIT.” We will not be a pension-held REIT unless (1) either (A) one pension trust owns more than 25% of the value of a Series’ interests, or (B) a group of pension trusts, each individually holding more than 10% of the value of a Series’ interests, collectively owns more than 50% of such interests; and (2) we would not have satisfied the 5/50 Test but for a special rule that permits us to “look-through” such trusts to the ultimate beneficial owners of such trusts in applying the 5/50 Test.

In general, the U.S. federal income tax rules applicable to REITs will require us to complete our liquidation within 24 months following our adoption of a plan of liquidation. Compliance with this 24-month requirement could require us to distribute unsold assets to a liquidating trust. The U.S. federal income tax treatment of ownership an interest in any such liquidating trust would differ materially from the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an investment in our Series Interests, including the potential incurrence of income treated as UBTI.

Tax exempt U.S. investors are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax consequences of owning our Series Interests.

43

U.S. Taxation of Non-U.S. Investors

General

In general, non-U.S. investors will not be considered to be engaged in a U.S. trade or business solely as a result of their ownership of our Series Interests. In cases where a non-U.S. investor’s investment in our Series Interests is, or is treated as, effectively connected with the non-U.S. investor’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business, dividend income received in respect of our Series Interests and gain from the sale of our Series Interests generally will be “effectively connected income” (“ECI”) subject to U.S. federal income tax at graduated rates in the same manner as if the non-U.S. investor were a U.S. investor, and such dividend income may also be subject to the 30% branch profits tax (subject to possible reduction under a treaty) on the income after the application of the income tax in the case of a non-U.S. investor that is a corporation. Additionally, non-U.S. investors that are nonresident alien individuals who are present in the U.S. for 183 days or more during the taxable year and have a “tax home” in the U.S. are subject to a 30% withholding tax on their capital gains. The remaining discussion below assumes the dividends and gain generated in respect of our Series Interests is not effectively connected to a U.S. trade or business of the non-U.S. investor and that the non-U.S. investor is not present in the U.S. for more than 183 days during any taxable year.

FIRPTA

Under the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (“FIRPTA”), gains from U.S. real property interests (“USRPIs”) are generally treated as ECI subject to U.S. federal income tax at graduated rates in the same manner as if the non-U.S. investor were a U.S. investor (and potentially branch profits tax to non-U.S. corporations), and will generate return filing obligations in the United States for such non-U.S. investors. USRPIs for purposes of FIRPTA generally include interests in real property located in the United States and loans that provide the lender with a participation in the profits, gains, appreciation (or similar arrangements) of real property located in the United States. Loans secured by real property located in the United States that do not provide the lender with a participation in profits, gains, appreciation (or similar arrangements) of the real property are generally not treated as USRPIs.

In addition, stock of a domestic corporation (including a REIT such as us) will be a USRPI if at least 50% of its real property assets and assets used in a trade or business are USRPIs at any time during a prescribed testing period. Notwithstanding the foregoing rule, (i) our Series Interests will not be a USRPI if we are “domestically-controlled,” (ii) our Series Interests will not be a USRPI with respect to a selling non-U.S investor. if the interests sold are of a class that is regularly traded on an established securities market and the selling non-U.S. investor owned, actually or constructively, 10% or less of our outstanding stock of that class at all times during a specified testing period (generally the lesser of the five year period ending on the date of disposition or the period of our existence), or (iii) with respect to a selling non-U.S. investor that is a “qualified” (as described below) or (iv) with respect to a selling non-U.S. investor that is a “qualified foreign pension fund” (as described below).

A domestically controlled REIT is a REIT in which, at all times during a specified testing period (generally the lesser of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition of the REIT’s interests of interests or the period of the REIT’s existence), less than 50% in value of its outstanding interests of interests is held directly or indirectly by non-U.S. persons. For these purposes, a person holding less than 5% of our Series Interests for five years will be treated as a U.S. person unless we have actual knowledge that such person is not a U.S. person.

Ordinary Dividends

The portion of dividends received by non-U.S. investors payable out of our earnings and profits that are not attributable to gains from sales or exchanges of USRPIs will generally be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at the rate of 30%, unless reduced or eliminated by an applicable income tax treaty. Under some treaties, however, lower rates generally applicable to dividends do not apply to dividends from REITs.

Non-Dividend Distributions

A non-U.S. investor should not incur tax on a distribution in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits if the excess portion of the distribution does not exceed the adjusted basis of its interests. Instead, the excess portion of the distribution will reduce the adjusted basis of its interests. A non-U.S. investor generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax (but will be subject to withholding as described below) on a distribution that exceeds both our current and accumulated earnings and profits and the adjusted basis of its interests unless our Series Interests constitutes a USRPI and no other exception applies to the selling non-U.S. investor. If our Series Interests is a USRPI, and no other exception applies to the selling non-U.S. investor, distributions in excess of both our earnings and the non-U.S. investor’s basis in our Series Interests will be treated as ECI subject to U.S. federal income tax. Regardless of whether the distribution exceeds basis, we will be required to withhold 15% of any distributions to non-U.S. investors in excess of our current year and accumulated earnings (i.e., including distributions that represent a return of the non-U.S. investor’s tax basis in our Series Interests). The withheld amounts will be credited against any U.S. tax liability of the non-U.S. investor, and may be refundable to the extent such withheld amounts exceed the investor’s actual U.S. federal income tax liability. Even in the event our Series Interests is not a USRPI, we may choose to withhold on the entire amount of any distribution at the same rate as we would withhold on a dividend because we may not be able to determine at the time we make a distribution whether or not the distribution will exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits. However, a non-U.S. investor may obtain a refund of amounts that we withhold if we later determine that a distribution in fact exceeded our current and accumulated earnings and profits, to the extent such withheld amounts exceed the investor’s actual U.S. federal income tax liability.

Capital Gain Dividends and Distributions of FIRPTA Gains

Subject to the exceptions that may apply if our Series Interests are regularly traded on an established securities market or if the selling non-U.S. investor is a “qualified” or a “qualified foreign pension fund,” each as described below, under a FIRPTA “look-through” rule, any of our distributions to non-U.S. investors of gain attributable to the sale of a USRPI will be treated as ECI and subject to the 21% FIRPTA withholding regardless of whether our Series Interests constitutes a USRPI. Amounts treated as ECI under the look-through rule may also be subject to the 30% branch profits tax (subject to possible reduction under a treaty), after the application of the income tax to such ECI, in the case of a non-U.S. investor that is a corporation. In addition, we will be required to withhold tax at the highest U.S. federal corporate income tax rate on the maximum amount that could have been designated as capital gains dividends. Capital gain dividends received by a non-U.S. investor that are attributable to dispositions of our assets other than USRPIs are not subject to U.S. federal income tax. This FIRPTA look through rule also applies to distributions in redemption of interests and liquidating distributions, to the extent they represent distributions of gain attributable to the sale of a USRPI.

A distribution that would otherwise have been treated as gain from the sale of a USRPI under the FIRPTA look-through rule will not be treated as ECI, and instead will be treated as otherwise described herein without regard to the FIRPTA look-through rule, if (1) the distribution is received with respect to a class of stock that is regularly traded on an established securities market located in the United States, and (2) the recipient non-U.S. investor does not own more than 10% of that class of stock at any time during the one-year period ending on the date on which the distribution is received. We currently are not publicly traded and such rules will not apply unless and until our Series Interests becomes “regularly traded” on an established securities exchange in the future.

Sales or Dispositions of Our Interests

If gain on the sale of our Series Interests were taxed under FIRPTA, a non-U.S. investor would be taxed on that gain in the same manner as U.S. investors with respect to that gain, subject to any applicable alternative minimum tax. A non-U.S. investor generally will not incur tax under FIRPTA on a sale or other disposition of our Series Interests if we are a “domestically controlled qualified investment entity,” which requires that, during the five-year period ending on the date of the distribution or disposition, non-U.S. investors hold, directly or indirectly, less than 50% in value of a Series’ interests and such Series is qualified as a REIT. For such testing periods that end on or after December 18, 2015, a person holding less than 5% of our regularly traded classes of stock for five years has been, and will be, treated as a U.S. person unless we have actual knowledge that such person is not a U.S. person. Because our Series Interests will be publicly traded, we cannot assure you that we will be in the future a domestically controlled qualified investment entity. However, gain recognized by a non-U.S. investor from a sale of our Series Interests that is regularly traded on an established securities market will not be subject to tax under FIRPTA if (i) our securities are considered regularly traded under applicable Treasury Regulations on an established securities market, such as the NYSE American, and (ii) the non-U.S. investor owned, actually and constructively, 10% or less of the value of such class of securities at all times during the specified testing period ending on the date of the disposition. The testing period referred to in the previous sentence is the shorter of (x) the period during which the non-U.S. investor held the stock and (y) the five-year period ending on the date of the disposition. We currently are not publicly traded and such rules will not apply unless and until our Series Interests becomes “regularly traded” on an established securities exchange in the future. Non-U.S. investors should consult their tax advisors as to the availability of the exception for holders of less than 10% of our securities in the case of a class of our securities that is not regularly traded on an established securities market.

In addition, even if we are a domestically controlled qualified investment entity, upon a disposition of our Series Interests, a non-U.S. investor may be treated as having gain from the sale or exchange of a United States real property interest if the non-U.S. investor (i) disposes of an interest in our Series Interests or preferred stock during the 30-day period preceding the ex-dividend date of a distribution, any portion of which, but for the disposition, would have been treated as gain from the sale or exchange of a United States real property interest, and (ii) directly or indirectly acquires, enters into a contract or option to acquire, or is deemed to acquire, other our Series Interests or preferred stock within 30 days before or after such ex-dividend date. The foregoing rule does not apply if the exception described above for dispositions by 10% or smaller holders of regularly traded classes of stock is satisfied.

45

Furthermore, a non-U.S. investor generally will incur tax on gain not subject to FIRPTA if (i) the gain is effectively connected with the non-U.S. investor’s U.S. trade or business and, if certain treaties apply, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. investor, in which case the non-U.S. investor will be subject to the same treatment as U.S. investors with respect to such gain and may be subject to the 30% branch profits tax in the case of a non-U.S. corporation, or (ii) the non U.S. investor is a nonresident alien individual who was present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year and has a “tax home” in the United States, in which case the non-U.S. investor will generally incur a 30% tax on his or her net U.S. source capital gains. Purchasers of our Series Interests from a non-U.S. investor generally will be required to withhold and remit to the IRS 15% of the purchase price unless at the time of purchase (i) any class of our securities is regularly traded on an established securities market (subject to certain limits if the interests of stock sold are not themselves part of such a regularly traded class) or (ii) we are a domestically controlled qualified investment entity. The non-U.S. investor may receive a credit against his or her U.S. tax liability for the amount withheld.

To the extent our Series Interests is held directly (or indirectly through one or more partnerships) by a “qualified,” our Series Interests will not be treated as a USRPI. Further, to the extent such treatment applies, any distribution to such will not be treated as gain recognized from the sale or exchange of a USRPI. For these purposes, a qualified is generally a non-U.S. investor that (i)(A) is eligible for treaty benefits under an income tax treaty with the United States that includes an exchange of information program, and the principal class of interests of which is listed and regularly traded on one or more stock exchanges as defined by the treaty, or (B) is a foreign limited partnership organized in a jurisdiction with an exchange of information agreement with the United States and that has a class of regularly traded limited partnership units (having a value greater than 50% of the value of all partnership units) on the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq, (ii) is a “qualified collective investment vehicle” (within the meaning of Section 897(k)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) and (iii) maintains records of persons holding 5% or more of the class of interests described in clauses (i)(A) or (i)(B) above. However, in the case of a qualified having one or more “applicable investors,” the exception described in the first sentence of this paragraph will not apply to the applicable percentage of the qualified investor’s stock (with “applicable percentage” generally meaning the percentage of the value of the interests in the qualified held by applicable investors after applying certain constructive ownership rules). The applicable percentage of the amount realized by a qualified on the disposition of our securities or with respect to a distribution from us attributable to gain from the sale or exchange of a USRPI will be treated as amounts realized from the disposition of USRPI. Such treatment will also apply to applicable investors in respect of distributions treated as a sale or exchange of stock with respect to a qualified. For these purposes, an “applicable investor” is a person (other than a qualified) who generally holds an interest in the qualified and holds more than 10% of our securities applying certain constructive ownership rules.

Special FIRPTA Rules

For FIRPTA purposes, a “qualified foreign pension fund” will not be treated as a non-U.S. investor, and any entity all of the interests of which are held by a qualified foreign pension fund will be treated as such a fund. A “qualified foreign pension fund” is an organization or arrangement (i) created or organized in a foreign country, (ii) established to provide retirement or pension benefits to current or former employees (including self-employed individuals) or their designees by either (A) a foreign country as a result of services rendered by such employees to their employers, or (B) one or more employers in consideration for services rendered by such employees to such employers, (iii) which does not have a single participant or beneficiary that has a right to more than 5% of its assets or income, (iv) which is subject to government regulation and with respect to which annual information about its beneficiaries is provided, or is otherwise available, to relevant local tax authorities and (v) with respect to which, under its local laws, (A) contributions that would otherwise be subject to tax are deductible or excluded from its gross income or taxed at a reduced rate, or (B) taxation of its investment income is deferred, or such income is excluded from its gross income or taxed at a reduced rate.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Returns

If a non-U.S. investor is subject to taxation under FIRPTA on proceeds from the sale of our Series Interests or preferred stock or on distributions, the non-U.S. investor will be required to file a U.S. federal income tax return.

Liquidating Distributions

Once we have adopted (or are deemed to have adopted) a plan of liquidation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, liquidating distributions received by a non-U.S. investor with respect to our Series Interests will be treated first as a recovery of the investor’s basis in the interests of interests (computed separately for each block of interests) and thereafter as gain from the disposition of our Series Interests. Subject to the FIRPTA look-through rule, (i) if our Series Interests are a USRPI, gain from a liquidating distribution with respect our Series Interests would be ECI to the non-U.S. investor unless such non-U.S. investor were a qualified or qualified foreign pension fund, as described above, and (ii) if our Series Interests are not a USRPI, gain from a liquidating distribution with respect to our Series Interests would not be subject to U.S. federal income tax. In general, the U.S. federal income tax rules applicable to REITs will require us to complete our liquidation within 24 months following our adoption of a plan of liquidation. Compliance with this 24-month requirement could require us to distribute unsold assets to a “liquidating trust” The U.S. federal income tax treatment of ownership an interest in any such liquidating trust would differ materially from the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an investment in our securities, including the potential incurrence of income treated as ECI and the likely requirement to file U.S. federal income tax returns.

46

The IRS takes the view that under the FIRPTA look-through rule, but subject to the exceptions described above that may apply to a holder of no more than 10% of our Series Interests if our Series Interests is regularly traded on an established securities market, to a qualified or to a qualified foreign pension fund, distributions in redemption of our Series Interests and liquidating distributions to non-U.S. investors will be treated as ECI and subject to withholding at the highest U.S. federal corporate income rate, and also potentially subject to branch profits tax in the case of corporate non-U.S. investors, to the extent that the distributions are attributable to gain from the sale of a USRPI, regardless of whether our securities are a USRPI and regardless of whether the distribution is otherwise treated as a sale or exchange.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

We will report to our U.S. investors and the IRS the amount of dividends paid during each calendar year and the amount of any tax withheld. Under the backup withholding rules, a U.S. investor may be subject to backup withholding with respect to dividends paid unless the holder is a corporation or comes within other exempt categories and, when required, demonstrates this fact or provides a taxpayer identification number or social security number, certifies as to no loss of exemption from backup withholding and otherwise complies with applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. A U.S. investor that does not provide his or her correct taxpayer identification number or social security number may also be subject to penalties imposed by the IRS. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. In addition, we may be required to withhold a portion of dividends or capital gain distribution to any U.S. investor who fails to certify their non-foreign status.

U.S. investors. In general, information reporting requirements will apply to payments of distributions on our securities and payments of the proceeds of the sale of our securities to some investors. Further, the payor will be required to backup withhold on any payments at the current rate of 24% if:

(1) the payee fails to furnish a taxpayer identification number, or TIN, to the payor or establish an exemption from backup withholding;

(2) the IRS notifies the payor that the TIN furnished by the payee is incorrect;

(3) the payee fails to certify under the penalty of perjury that the payee is not subject to backup withholding under the Internal Revenue Code; or

(4) there has been a notified payee underreporting with respect to dividends described in Code Section 3406(c).

Some U.S. investors, including corporations and tax-exempt organizations, will be exempt from backup withholding. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from a payment to an will be allowed as a credit against the investor’s U.S. federal income tax and may entitle the investor to a refund, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS on a timely basis.

Non-U.S. Investors. Information reporting requirements and backup withholding may apply to (i) payments of distributions on our securities to a non-U.S. investor and (ii) proceeds a non- U.S. investor receives upon the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other disposition of our securities. Information reporting and backup withholding will generally not apply if an appropriate IRS Form W-8 is duly provided by such non-U.S. investor or the otherwise establishes an exemption, provided that the withholding agent does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the is a U.S. person or that the claimed exemption is not in fact satisfied. Even without having executed an appropriate IRS Form W-8 or substantially similar form, however, in some cases information reporting and backup withholding will not apply to proceeds received through a broker’s foreign office that a non-U.S. investor receives upon the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other disposition of our securities. However, this exemption does not apply to brokers that are U.S. persons and certain foreign brokers with substantial U.S. ownership or operations. Any amount withheld under the backup withholding rules is allowable as a credit against such investor’s U.S. federal income tax liability (which might entitle such holder to a refund), provided that such holder furnishes the required information to the IRS. Payments not subject to information reporting requirements may nonetheless be subject to other reporting requirements

47

Foreign Accounts and FATCA

The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”) provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, subject to administrative guidance and certain intergovernmental agreements entered into thereunder, currently imposes withholding taxes on certain U.S. source passive payments to “foreign financial institutions” (as specifically defined in the Internal Revenue Code) and certain other non-U.S. entities. Under this legislation, the failure to comply with additional certification, information reporting and other specified requirements could result in withholding tax being imposed on payments of dividends and sales proceeds to U.S. investors who own our Series Interests through foreign accounts or foreign intermediaries and certain non-U.S. investors. The legislation imposes a 30% withholding tax on dividends on our Series Interests paid to a foreign financial institution or to a foreign entity other than a financial institution, unless (i) the foreign financial institution (as the beneficial owner or as an intermediary for the beneficial owners) undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations or (ii) the foreign entity (as the beneficial owners or, in certain cases, as an intermediary for the beneficial owners) is not a financial institution and either certifies it does not have any substantial U.S. owners or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial U.S. owner. If the payee is a foreign financial institution (that is not otherwise exempt), it must either (1) enter into an agreement with the U.S. Treasury Department requiring, among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain U.S. persons or U.S.-owned foreign entities, annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on payments to account holders whose actions prevent it from complying with these reporting and other requirements or (2) in the case of a foreign financial institution that is resident in a jurisdiction that has entered into an intergovernmental agreement to implement FATCA, comply with the revised diligence and reporting obligations of such intergovernmental agreement. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding this legislation.

State, Local and Non-U.S. Taxes

We and our investors may be subject to state, local or non-U.S. taxation in various jurisdictions, including those in which it or they transact business, own property or reside. The state, local or non-U.S. tax treatment of us and our investors may not conform to the U.S. federal income tax treatment discussed above. Any non-U.S. taxes incurred by us would not pass through to investors as a credit against their U.S. federal income tax liability. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the application and effect of state, local and non-U.S. income and other tax laws on an investment in our Series Interests.

Legislative or Other Actions Affecting REITs

The rules dealing with U.S. federal income taxation are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury. No assurance can be given as to whether, when, or in what form, U.S. federal income tax laws applicable to us and our investors may be enacted. Changes to the U.S. federal income tax laws and interpretations of U.S. federal income tax laws could adversely affect an investment in a Series’ interests.

The recently enacted TCJA, generally applicable for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, made significant changes to the Internal Revenue Code, including a number of provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that affect the taxation of businesses and their owners, including REITs and their investors.

Among other changes, the TCJA made the following changes:

● For tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026, (i) the U.S. federal income tax rates on ordinary income of individuals, trusts and estates have been generally reduced and (ii) non-corporate taxpayers are permitted to take a deduction for certain pass-through business income, including, as discussed above, dividends received from REITs that are not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income, subject to certain limitations.

● The maximum U.S. federal income tax rate for corporations has been reduced, and corporate alternative minimum tax has been eliminated for corporations, which would generally reduce the amount of U.S. federal income tax payable by our TRSs and by us to the extent we were subject corporate U.S. federal income tax. In addition, the maximum withholding rate on distributions by us to non-U.S. investors that are treated as attributable to gain from the sale or exchange of a U.S. real property interest has been reduced.

● Certain new limitations on the deductibility of interest expense now apply, which limitations may affect the deductibility of interest paid or accrued by us or our TRSs.

● Certain new limitations on net operating losses now apply, which limitations may affect net operating losses generated by us or our TRSs.

● A U.S. tax-exempt that is subject to tax on its UBTI will be required to separately compute its taxable income and loss for each unrelated trade or business activity for purposes of determining its UBTI.

● Accounting rules generally require us to recognize income items for federal income tax purposes no later than when we take the item into account for financial statement purposes, which may accelerate our recognition of certain income items.

The long-term effect of the TCJA on us and our investors remains uncertain, and administrative guidance will be required in order to fully evaluate the effect of many provisions. Any technical corrections with respect to the TCJA could have an adverse effect on us or our investors.

48

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

Each respective member that is an employee benefit plan or trust (an “ERISA Plan”) within the meaning of, and subject to, the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), or an individual retirement account (“IRA”) or Keogh Plan subject to the Internal Revenue Code, should consider the matters described below in determining whether to invest in the Company.

In addition, ERISA Plan fiduciaries must give appropriate consideration to, among other things, the role that an investment in the Company plays in such ERISA Plan's portfolio, taking into consideration (i) whether the investment is reasonably designed to further the ERISA Plan's purposes, (ii) an examination of the risk and return factors, (iii) the portfolio's composition with regard to diversification, (iv) the liquidity and current return of the total portfolio relative to the ERISA Plan's objectives and (v) the limited right of members to withdraw all or any part of their capital accounts or to transfer their Interests in the Company.

If the assets of the Company were regarded as “plan assets” of an ERISA Plan, an IRA, or a Keogh Plan, our Manager of the Company would be a “fiduciary” (as defined in ERISA) with respect to such plans and would be subject to the obligations and liabilities imposed on fiduciaries by ERISA. Moreover, other various requirements of ERISA would also be imposed on the Company. In particular, any rule restricting transactions with “parties in Interest” and any rule prohibiting transactions involving conflicts of interest on the part of fiduciaries would be imposed on the Company which may result in a violation of ERISA unless the Company obtained an appropriate exemption from the Department of Labor allowing the Company to conduct its operations as described herein.

Regulations adopted by the Department of Labor (the “Plan Regulations”) provides that when a Plan invests in another entity, the Plan's assets include both the equity Interest and an undivided Interest in each of the underlying assets of the entity, unless it is established that, among other exceptions, the equity participation in the entity by “benefit plan investors” is not “significant.” The Pension Protection Act of 2006 amended the definition of “benefit plan investors” to include only plans and plan asset entities (i.e., entities that are themselves deemed to hold plan assets by virtue of investments in them by plans) that are subject to part 4 of Title I of ERISA or section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code. This new definition excludes governmental, church, and foreign benefit plans from consideration as benefit plan investors.

Under the Plan Regulations, participation by benefit plan investors is “significant” on any date if, immediately after the last acquisition, 25% or more of the value of any class of equity Interests in the entity is held by benefit plan investors. The Company intends to limit the participation in the Company by benefit plan investors to the extent necessary so that participation by benefit plan investors will not be “significant” within the meaning of the Plan Regulations. Therefore, it is not expected that the Company assets will constitute “plan assets” of plans that acquire Interests.

It is the current intent of the Company to limit the aggregate investment by benefit plan investors to less than 25% of the value of the members' membership Interests so that equity participation of benefit plan investors will not be considered “significant.” The Company reserves the right, however, to waive the 25% limitation.

ACCEPTANCE OF SUBSCRIPTIONS ON BEHALF OF INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS OR OTHER EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS IS IN NO RESPECT A REPRESENTATION BY OUR COMPANY OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, OR ANY OTHER PARTY THAT THIS INVESTMENT MEETS ALL RELEVANT LEGAL REQUIREMENTS WITH RESPECT TO INVESTMENTS BY ANY PARTICULAR PLAN. THE PERSON WITH INVESTMENT DISCRETION SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER ATTORNEY AND FINANCIAL ADVISERS AS TO THE PROPRIETY OF SUCH AN INVESTMENT IN LIGHT OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF THAT PARTICULAR PLAN AND CURRENT TAX LAW.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:

● Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

● Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

● Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Investment.com Collection, LLC’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

● Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.

● Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Investment.com Collection, LLC’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

INVESTMENT.COM COLLECTION, LLC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the period from October 7, 2022 to October 31, 2022

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

INVESTMENT.COM COLLECTION LLC (which may be referred to as the “Company”, “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a series limited liability company formed under the laws of Delaware on October 7, 2022, a subsidiary of Investment.com Inc, and is a real estate investment and syndication company that will fractionalize the ownership of residential real estate assets for retail investors. The Company and its series companies will be managed by a common manager, Investment.com, Inc., who will source, vet and seed assets to the series companies. Each series will raise money from investors in support of those acquired assets.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The accompanying financial statements include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of the audited financial statements for the years presented have been

included.

The Company will select December 31 as its reporting year end.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States and other countries that the Company operates in. A host of factors beyond the Company’s control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include recession, downturn or otherwise, local competition or changes in consumer taste. These adverse conditions could affect the Company’s financial condition and the results of its operations.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America, which it believes to be credit worthy. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures balances up to $250,000. At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits. As of October 31, 2022, the Company held cash balances in excess of this amount.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers short-term, highly liquid investment with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

INVESTMENT.COM COLLECTION, LLC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the period from October 7, 2022 to October 31, 2022

Fair Value Measurements

Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and such principles also establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value using the following definitions (from highest to lowest priority):

●Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

●Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

●Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques requiring inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reporting in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of receivables, inventory, property and equipment, intangible assets, and accrued expenses for financial and income tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Any deferred tax items of the Company have been fully valued based on the determination of the Company that the utilization of any deferred tax assets is uncertain.

The Company complies with FASB ASC 740 for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes that its income tax positions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position.

Management has determined that the Company does not have any uncertain tax positions and associated unrecognized benefits that materially impact the financial statements or related disclosures. Since tax matters are subject to some degree of uncertainty, there can be no assurance that the Company’s tax returns will not be challenged by the taxing authorities and that the Company will not be subject to additional tax, penalties, and interest as a result of such challenge.

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN

These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. The Company has not yet begun operation in 2022. The Company has raised or will raise sufficient cash to continue with its development operations. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within the twelve-month period subsequent to the date that these financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
