The minimum amount of investment required from any one subscriber to participate in this Offering is $25,000, however, the Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to accept subscriptions in an amount less than this amount. Boustead Securities, LLC (“Boustead”) and the Company, in their sole discretion, may accept subscriptions in excess of the Maximum Offering Amount. All references to $ means United States dollars. The undersigned acknowledges that the Company has engaged Boustead as its exclusive placement agent in connection with this Offering.
1. Description of Securities; Risk Factors.
| a. | Description of Securities. The Company is offering (the “Offering”) to the Investor class B ordinary shares, nominal value $0.005 per share, of the Company (“Shares” or “Securities”) at a purchase price of $1.00 per share. The Company is authorized to allot and issue two classes of ordinary shares, Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares, and any number of classes of preferred shares. Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to ten votes per share on resolutions requiring or requesting shareholder approval, and Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote on any such matter. For a more detailed description of the Securities see the Term Sheet attached as Exhibit C to the Subscription Package. |
This Offering is being conducted in advance of the Company’s intended initial public offering (“IPO”) of its Class B Ordinary Shares and listing of its Class B Ordinary Shares for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market or other national securities exchange.
Under the Company’s engagement letter with Xxxxxxxx, dated July 12, 2022 (the “Engagement Letter”), Xxxxxxxx has been engaged as our exclusive financial advisor for the 18-month term of the Engagement Letter. In addition, Xxxxxxxx has expressed its intent to enter into an Underwriting Agreement with the Company to act as the lead underwriter for the proposed IPO on a “firm commitment” basis. There can be no assurance that we and Xxxxxxxx will be able to agree on the terms of such Underwriting Agreement or that our proposed IPO will be successfully consummated.
| b. | Risks Related to the Investment in the Securities. Investing in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. Before investing, Investors should carefully consider the Business Summary of the Company (Exhibit D to the Investor Package), the Risk Factors related to the Company’s business (Exhibit E to the Investor Package), the Company Investor Presentation (Exhibit F to the Investor Package) and the Company Financial Statements (Exhibit G to the Investor Package), together with the other information contained in Offering Documents. |
2. Purchase.
| a. | I hereby agree to tender to Xxxxxx Securities Inc. (the “Escrow Agent”), (i) by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds (to a bank account and related wire instructions provided in the Investor Package or otherwise provided to me upon my request) made payable to “Xxxxxx Securities Inc., as Escrow Agent for Brera Holdings Limited”, for such number of Shares indicated on the signature page hereto, (ii) an executed copy of this Subscription Agreement, and (iii) an executed copy of my Investor Representation and Suitability Questionnaire, attached as Exhibit B to the Investor Package. Funds will be held in an escrow account maintained by the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Account”), as set forth in more detail below pending the initial Closing of the Offering. |
| b. | The Offering is for a minimum offering amount of $500,000 (the “Minimum Offering Amount”) and a maximum offering of $1,500,000 (the “Maximum Offering Amount”). All subscriptions to purchase Securities will be held in the Escrow Account, which is a noninterest-bearing account maintained by the Escrow Agent. The subscriptions will remain in the Escrow Account until subscriptions for the Minimum Offering Amount are raised. Xxxxxxxx and the Company, in their sole discretion, may accept subscriptions in excess of the Maximum Offering Amount. |
| c. | This Offering will continue until the earlier of (a) the sale of 1,500,000 Shares for $1,500,000 of gross proceeds being the Maximum Offering Amount, or (b) September 30, 2022, unless such date is extended by the Company and Boustead in their sole discretion (the “Termination Date”). Upon the earlier of a Closing (defined below) on my subscription or completion of the Offering, I will be notified promptly by the Company as to whether my subscription has been accepted by the Company. |
3. Acceptance or Rejection of Subscription.
| a. | I understand and agree that the Company reserves the right to reject this subscription for the Securities, in whole or in part, for any reason and at any time prior to the Closing (defined below) of my subscription. |
| b. | In the event the Company rejects this subscription, my subscription payment will be promptly returned to me without interest or deduction and this Subscription Agreement shall be of no force or effect. In the event my subscription is accepted, and the Offering is completed, the subscription funds submitted by me shall be released to the Company. |
4. Closing. The closing (“Closing”) of this Offering may occur at any time and from time to time on or before the Termination Date. The Company must achieve the $500,000 Minimum Offering Amount prior to conducting an initial Closing (the “Initial Closing”). Upon receipt of the Minimum Amount, an Initial Closing will be held, and all funds will be released from the Escrow Account and paid to the Company, less professional fees and compensation paid to Boustead and syndicate members, if any. Thereafter, additional Closings will be held as funds are received up to the earlier to occur of receipt of the $1,500,000 Maximum Offering Amount (or increased amount agreed to by the Company and Boustead) or the Termination Date. Xxxxxxxx and the Company, in their sole discretion, may accept subscriptions in excess of the Maximum Offering Amount. Pending receipt of the Minimum Amount, all subscription funds will be placed in escrow with the Escrow Agent. If, for any reason, the Minimum Amount of subscriptions are not received by the Termination Date (as the same may be extended by Boustead and the Company), all escrowed funds will be returned to subscribers, without interest or deduction. The Securities subscribed for herein shall not be deemed issued to or owned by me until one copy of this Subscription Agreement has been executed by me and countersigned by the Company, the Closing with respect to such Securities has occurred and my name has been entered on the Company’s register of members. Affiliates of the Company or Boustead, including officers, directors and existing stockholders of the Company and representatives of Boustead, may invest in this Offering and their funds will be counted toward the Company achieving the Minimum Amount. In addition, the Company may allow affiliates of the Company, Xxxxxxxx or other investors to pay the subscription price through the cancellation of indebtedness or other liquidated sums owed to such investors by the Company and such investment amount would also be counted toward achieving the Minimum Amount. I acknowledge and agree that Xxxxxxxx and the Company may unilaterally, without my consent, agree to extend the Termination Date by which the Minimum Amount must be raised for an Initial Closing to occur and Boustead and the Company shall not be required to return the escrowed funds to me if there is any such extension.

5. Disclosure. Because this offering is limited to accredited investors as defined in Section 2(15) of the Securities Act, and Rule 501 promulgated thereunder, in reliance upon the exemption contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, the Securities are being sold without registration under the Securities Act. I acknowledge receipt of the Offering Documents and represent that I have carefully reviewed and understand the Offering Documents, including all exhibits attached hereto. I have received all information and materials regarding the Company that I have requested. I fully understand that the Company has a limited financial and operating history and that the Securities are speculative investments which involve a high degree of risk, including the potential loss of my entire investment. I fully understand the nature of the risks involved in purchasing the Securities and I am qualified to make such investment based on my knowledge of and experience in investing in securities of this type. I have carefully considered the potential risks relating to the Company and purchase of its Securities and have, in particular, reviewed each of the risks set forth in the Offering Documents. Both my advisors and I have had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company or persons acting on its behalf concerning the Company and the terms and conditions of a proposed investment in the Company and my advisors and I have also had the opportunity to obtain additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of information furnished about the Company. Accordingly, I have independently evaluated the risks of purchasing the Securities.
6. Investor Representations and Warranties. I acknowledge, represent and warrant to, and agree with, the Company as follows:
| a. | I am aware that my investment involves a high degree of risk as disclosed in the Offering Documents and have carefully read the Offering Documents, and I understand that by signing this Subscription Agreement I am agreeing to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Offering Documents. |
| b. | I acknowledge and am aware that there is no assurance as to the future performance of the Company. |
| c. | I acknowledge that there may be certain adverse tax consequences to me in connection with my purchase of Securities, and the Company has advised me to seek the advice of experts in such areas prior to making this investment. |
| d. | I am purchasing the Securities for my own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with the distribution of the Securities, nor with any present intention of selling or otherwise disposing of all or any part of the foregoing securities. I agree that I must bear the entire economic risk of my investment for an indefinite period of time because, among other reasons, the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under applicable securities laws of certain states or an exemption from such registration is available. I hereby authorize the Company to place a restrictive legend on the Securities that are issued to me. |
3
| e. | I recognize that the Securities, as an investment, involve a high degree of risk including, but not limited to, the risk of economic losses from operations of the Company and the total loss of my investment. I believe that the investment in the Securities is suitable for me based upon my investment objectives and financial needs, and I have adequate means for providing for my current financial needs and contingencies and have no need for liquidity with respect to my investment in the Company. |
| f. | I have been given access to full and complete information regarding the Company and have utilized such access to my satisfaction for the purpose of obtaining information in addition to, or verifying information included in, the Offering Documents, and I have either met with or been given reasonable opportunity to meet with officers of the Company for the purpose of asking questions of, and receiving answers from, such officers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and the business and operations of the Company and to obtain any additional information, to the extent reasonably available. |
| g. | I have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and have obtained, in my judgment, sufficient information from the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company. I have not utilized any person as my purchaser representative as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act in connection with evaluating such merits and risks. |
| h. | I have relied solely upon my own investigation in deciding to invest in the Company. |
| i. | I have received no representation or warranty from the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents in respect of my investment in the Company and I have received no information (written or otherwise) from them relating to the Company or its business other than as set forth in the Offering Documents. I am not participating in the offer as a result of or subsequent to: (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or (ii) any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or general advertising. |
| j. | I have had full opportunity to ask questions and to receive satisfactory answers concerning the offering and other matters pertaining to my investment and all such questions have been answered to my full satisfaction. |
| k. | I have been provided an opportunity to obtain any additional information concerning the offering and the Company and all other information to the extent the Company possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense. |
| l. | I am an “accredited investor” as defined in Section 2(15) of the Securities Act and in Rule 501 promulgated thereunder and have attached the completed Accredited Investor Questionnaire to indicate my “accredited investor” status. I can bear the entire economic risk of the investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time and I am knowledgeable about and experienced in making investments in the equity securities of non-publicly traded companies, including early stage companies. I am not acting as an underwriter or a conduit for sale to the public or to others of unregistered securities, directly or indirectly, on behalf of the Company or any person with respect to such securities. |
| m. | I understand that (1) the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of certain states, in reliance on specific exemptions from registration, (2) no securities administrator of any state or the federal government has recommended or endorsed this offering or made any finding or determination relating to the fairness of an investment in the Company, and (3) the Company is relying on my representations and agreements for the purpose of determining whether this transaction meets the requirements of certain exemptions from registration afforded by the Securities Act and certain state securities laws. |
4
| n. | I understand that since neither the offer nor sale of the Securities has been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state, the Securities may not be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise disposed of unless they are so registered or an exemption from such registration is available. |
| o. | I have had the opportunity to seek independent advice from my professional advisors relating to the suitability of an investment in the Company in view of my overall financial needs and with respect to the legal and tax implications of such investment. |
| p. | If the Investor is a corporation, company, trust, employee benefit plan, individual retirement account, Xxxxx Plan, or other tax-exempt entity, it is authorized and qualified to become an Investor in the Company and the person signing this Subscription Agreement on behalf of such entity has been duly authorized by such entity to do so. |
| q. | The information contained in my Investor Questionnaire, as well as any information which I have furnished to the Company with respect to my financial position and business experience, is correct and complete as of the date of this Subscription Agreement and, if there should be any material change in such information prior to the Closing of the offering, I will furnish such revised or corrected information to the Company. I hereby acknowledge and am aware that except for any rescission rights that may be provided under applicable laws, I am not entitled to cancel, terminate or revoke this subscription and any agreements made in connection herewith shall survive my death or disability. |
7. Placement Agent. The Company has engaged Xxxxxxxx, a broker-dealer licensed with FINRA, as placement agent for the Offering on a reasonable best-efforts basis. The Company anticipates that Boustead and its sub-agents or syndicate members will be paid at each Closing from the proceeds in the Escrow Account, fees including and not to exceed: a cash commission of seven percent (7%) of the gross Purchase Price paid by Investors in the Offering, a non-accountable expense allowance equal to one percent (1%) of the gross proceeds raised in the Offering. Any sub-agent or syndicate member of Xxxxxxxx that introduces investors to the Offering will be entitled to share in the cash fees and Xxxxxxxx Warrants attributable to those investors as described above, pursuant to the terms of an executed sub-agent or selected dealer agreement. The Company will also pay certain expenses of Boustead.

| f. | No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of each of the Offering Documents by the Company, and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the Constitution (or equivalent constitutive document) of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or (ii) violate or conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or any subsidiary is a party, except for those which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including U.S. federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or any subsidiary or by which any property or asset of the Company or any subsidiary is bound or affected except for those which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except those which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Company nor any subsidiary is in violation of any term of or in default under its constitutive documents. Except those which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Company nor any subsidiary is in violation of any term of or in default under any material contract, agreement, mortgage, indebtedness, indenture, instrument, judgment, decree or order or any statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any subsidiary.

Neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the Offering Documents, nor the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, will require any notice, consent or waiver under any contract or instrument to which the Company or any subsidiary is a party or by which the Company or any subsidiary is bound or to which any of their assets is subject, except for any notice, consent or waiver the absence of which would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect and would not adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding two sentences have been or will be obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing. |
7
| g. | Absence of Litigation. There is no action, suit, claim, inquiry, notice of violation, proceeding (including any partial proceeding such as a deposition) or investigation before or by any court, public board, governmental or administrative agency, self-regulatory organization, arbitrator, regulatory authority, stock market, stock exchange or trading facility (an “Action”) now pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries, wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would (i) adversely affect the validity or enforceability of, or the authority or ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Offering Documents, or (ii) have a Material Adverse Effect. |

Neither the Company nor any subsidiary is party to any collective bargaining agreement. The Company’s and/or its subsidiaries’ employees are not members of any union, and the Company believes that its and its subsidiaries’ relationship with their respective employees is good. |
| l. | Permits. The Company and its subsidiaries have all authorizations, approvals, clearances, licenses, permits, certificates or exemptions issued by any regulatory authority or governmental agency (collectively, “Permits”) required to conduct their respective businesses as currently conducted except to the extent that the failure to have such Permits would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company or its subsidiaries have fulfilled and performed in all material respects their obligations under each Permit, and, as of the date hereof, to the knowledge of the Company, no event has occurred or condition or state of facts exists which would constitute a breach or default or would cause revocation or termination of any such Permit except to the extent that such breach, default, revocation or termination would not have a Material Adverse Effect. |
| m. | Title. Each of the Company and its subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all of its real and personal property and assets, free and clear of any material restriction, mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, lien, security interest or other charge, claim or encumbrance which would have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, instead of pursuant to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated, except that the unaudited Financial Statements may not contain all footnotes required by IFRS. The Financial Statements fairly present in all material respects the financial condition and operating results of the Company’s subsidiary as of the dates, and for the periods, indicated therein, subject to normal year-end audit adjustments.

As of the date set forth on the Investor Package, the Investor Package did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company has made available to you all the information reasonably available to the Company that you have requested for deciding whether to acquire the Securities.
