	·	(i) no part of the funds used by you to purchase the Shares has been, or shall be, directly or indirectly derived from, or related to, any activity that may contravene United States federal or state or non-United States laws or regulations, including anti-money laundering laws and regulations, and (ii) no payment to the Company by you and no distribution to you shall cause the Company to be in violation of any applicable anti-money laundering laws or regulations including, without limitation, Title III of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of 2001 and the United States Department of the Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control regulations. You acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Offering Circular or any other agreement, to the extent required by any anti-money laundering law or regulation, the Company may restrict distributions or take any other reasonably necessary or advisable action with respect to the Shares, and you shall have no claim, and shall not pursue any claim, against the Company or any other person in connection therewith. You further acknowledge that U.S. federal regulations and executive orders administered by OFAC prohibit, among other things, the engagement in transactions with, and the provision of services to, certain foreign countries, territories, entities and individuals, and the lists of OFAC prohibited countries, territories, persons and entities can be found on the OFAC website at xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxx/xxxx. You also acknowledge that the programs administered by OFAC (the “OFAC Programs”) prohibit dealing with individuals1 or entities in certain countries regardless of whether such individuals or entities appear on the OFAC lists.

	·	To the best of your knowledge, none of: (1) you; (2) any person controlling or controlled by you; (3) if you are a privately-held entity, any person having a beneficial interest in you; or (4) any person for whom you are acting as agent or nominee in connection with this investment, in each case is a country, territory, individual or entity named on an OFAC list, or a person or entity prohibited under the OFAC Programs. You agree to promptly notify the Company should you become aware of any change in the information set forth in these representations. You understand and acknowledge that, by law, the Company may be obligated to “freeze [your] account,” either by prohibiting additional subscriptions from you, declining to make any distributions to you and/or segregating the assets in the account in compliance with governmental regulations, and any broker may also be required to report such action and to disclose your identity to OFAC. You further acknowledge that the Company may, by written notice to you, suspend your distribution rights if the Company reasonably deems it necessary to do so to comply with anti-money laundering regulations applicable to the Company or any broker or any of the Company’s other service providers. These individuals include specially designated nationals, specially designated narcotics traffickers and other parties subject to OFAC sanctions and embargo programs.

	·	If you are affiliated with a non-U.S. banking institution (a “Foreign Bank”), or if you receive deposits from, make payments on behalf of, or handle other financial transactions related to a Foreign Bank, you represent and warrant to the Company that: (1) the Foreign Bank has a fixed address, other than solely an electronic address, in a country in which the Foreign Bank is authorized to conduct banking activities; (2) the Foreign Bank maintains operating records related to its banking activities; (3) the Foreign Bank is subject to inspection by the banking authority that licensed the Foreign Bank to conduct banking activities; and (4) the Foreign Bank does not provide banking services to any other Foreign Bank that does not have a physical presence in any country and that is not a regulated affiliate.

	·	You acknowledge that, to the extent applicable, the Company will seek to comply with the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and any rules, regulations, forms, instructions or other guidance issued in connection therewith (the “FATCA Provisions”). In furtherance of these efforts, you agree to promptly deliver any additional documentation or information, and updates thereto as applicable, which the Company may request in order to comply with the FATCA Provisions. You acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Offering Circular, any side letter or any other agreement, the failure to promptly comply with such requests, or to provide such additional information, may result in the withholding of amounts with respect to, or other limitations on, distributions made to you and such other reasonably necessary or advisable action by the Company with respect to the Shares (including, without limitation, required withdrawal), and you shall have no claim, and shall not pursue any claim, against the Company or any other person in connection therewith.

4. Ownership Limitation and Reporting.

You acknowledge and agree that, pursuant to the terms of the Operating Agreement, if you are a Benefit Plan Investor, you, together with other Benefit Plan Investors, cannot own, or be deemed to beneficially own, as “beneficial ownership” is determined pursuant to Section 13(d) and 13(g) of the Securities Act, 24.9% or more of the Shares entitled to vote with regard to the Series. Furthermore, you acknowledge and agree that if you own, or are deemed to beneficially own, more than 10% of the Shares entitled to vote in the Series, your name, address and holdings will be reported in the Company’s ongoing SEC filings, and you may also be considered an “affiliate" for purposes of Rule 405 of the Securities Act and hence subject to restrictions on your trading of the Shares absent an exemption therefrom.

5. Survival; Indemnification.

All representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement and the indemnification contained herein shall survive (a) the acceptance of this Agreement by the Company, (b) changes in the transactions, documents and instruments described herein which are not material or which are to your benefit, and (c) your death or disability. You acknowledge the meaning and legal consequences of the representations, warranties and agreements in Section 3 hereof and that the Company has relied upon such representations, warranties and covenants in determining your qualification and suitability to purchase the Shares. You hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless aShareX, the Company, the Managing Member, the Series and their respective officers, directors, employees, direct and beneficial owners and their successor and assigns, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements), judgments or amounts paid in settlement of actions arising out of or resulting from the untruth of any representation or warranty made by you herein or the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant herein made by you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as set forth in Section 14 hereof with respect to forum selection, no representation, warranty, covenant or acknowledgment made herein by you shall in any manner be deemed to constitute a waiver of any rights granted to it under the Securities Act or state securities laws.

6. Tax Forms.

You have or will have completed an IRS Form W-9 or the appropriate Form W-8, which should be returned directly to us via the Investor Platform. You certify that the information contained in the executed copy (or copies) of IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8 (and any accompanying required documentation), as applicable, when submitted to the Company will be true, correct and complete. You shall (i) promptly inform the Company of any change in such information, and (ii) furnish to us a new properly completed and executed form, certificate or attachment, as applicable, as may be required under the Internal Revenue Service instructions to such forms, the Code or any applicable Treasury Regulations or as may be requested from time to time by us. In addition, you understand that if you invest $100,000 or more in the Company during any 12-month period or acquire an interest in the Company equating to 10% or more of its voting power or value, and you are a U.S. citizen, U.S. resident or U.S. entity, you will be required to file IRS Form 926. In addition, to afford yourself an advantaged tax position, a QEF election under the Passive Foreign Investment Company provisions of the Code should be in effect for the year you acquire Shares in a Series. The Company, however, does not render tax advice, and therefore in filing any such forms, or determining what additional tax forms or reports to file, you should consult your tax advisor as to your personal tax situation.

7. No Advisory Relationship.

You acknowledge and agree that (a) the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement is an arms-length transaction between you and the Company, (b) neither the Company nor the Series is acting as your agent or fiduciary or assumes any advisory or fiduciary responsibility in your favor in connection with the Shares, neither the Company nor the Series has provided you with any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the Shares, and you have consulted your own respective legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent you have deemed appropriate.

8. Telephone Consumer Protection Act Consent.

You hereby expressly consent to receiving calls and messages, including auto-dialed and pre-recorded message calls, and SMS messages (including text messages) from the Managing Member, the Asset Manager or their respective representatives calling at their request or on their behalf at any telephone numbers that you have provided to the Company (including any cellular telephone numbers). To unsubscribe from text messages or promotional calls at any time, you may notify the Company to stop receiving text or call messages from the Company, the Managing Member or Asset Manager. You understand that unsubscribing from promotional and/or account-related texts or calls will not prevent the Company from sending you text messages or telephone calls for purposes other than promotion and marketing.

9. Investor and Trading Platform.

You acknowledge that you have read, understand and agree to the terms and conditions of use, privacy policy and disclaimers on the Investor Platform and Trading Platform.

10. Transfer Restrictions.

You acknowledge and agree that the Shares are subject to restrictions on transfer as described in the Offering Documents. The Shares may only be transferred by operation of law or with the consent of the Company or:

	·	to an immediate family member or an affiliate of the owner of the Class A shares,

	·	to a trust or other entity for estate or tax planning purposes,

	·	as a charitable gift, or

	·	on the Trading Platform.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Managing Member may withhold consent in its sole discretion, including when the Managing Member determines that such transfer, assignment or pledge would result in (a) the Artwork being deemed “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA, (b) a change of U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Company and the Shares, or (c) the Company or the Series being subject to additional regulatory requirements.

As a condition to recording any sale of Shares on our books and records, the buyer and seller to the transfer will be required to pay (i) a commission to the executing broker-dealer equal to 2% of the gross proceeds of the transaction, payable 1% by each of the buyer and seller, and (ii) a fee to the Asset Manager equal to 3% of the aggregate Offering Price of the transferred Shares, payable 1.5% by each of the buyer and seller. These costs will be charged on a per transaction basis irrespective of the number of Shares transferred. Transfers may also be subject to restrictions imposed under state and international securities laws. Certificates or other instruments representing the Shares shall bear a digital or physical restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop transfer order may be placed against transfer of such certificates or instruments):

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY’S OPERATING AGREEMENT AND THE SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT PURSUANT TO WHICH THESE SECURITIES WERE ORIGINALLY SOLD. ANY PURPORTED TRANSFER IN VIOLATION OF SUCH PROVISIONS SHALL BE VOID, AB INITIO.

11. Arbitration.

a. General. Either party may, at its sole election, require that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution of a Claim be final and binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 11 (this “Arbitration Provision”). The arbitration shall be conducted in Los Angeles, California. As used in this Arbitration Provision, “Claim” shall include any past, present, or future claim, dispute, or controversy involving you (or persons claiming through or connected with you), on the one hand, and the Company and or Series (or persons claiming through or connected with the Company or the Series), on the other hand, relating to or arising out of the Auction Agreement or this Agreement, provided that this provision shall not apply to any Claims arising under Federal securities laws. Claims are subject to arbitration regardless of whether they arise from contract; tort (intentional or otherwise); a constitution, statute, common law, or principles of equity; or otherwise. Claims include (without limitation) matters arising as initial claims, counter-claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.

b. Initiation of Arbitration. The party initiating arbitration shall do so with the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (“JAMS”). The arbitration shall be conducted according to, and the location of the arbitration shall be determined in accordance with, the rules and policies of JAMS, except to the extent the rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision or any countervailing law. In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of JAMS and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the rules and policies of JAMS apply.

c. If arbitration is elected, each party shall bear 50% of the fees and costs of JAMS and the arbitrator and each party shall bear its own attorney’s fees and costs, except as otherwise provided by law. If a statute gives you the right to recover any of these fees, these statutory rights shall apply in the arbitration notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein. The award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties absent manifest error. The prevailing party in the arbitration as determined by the arbitrator shall be entitled to recover its attorney’s fees and costs and the fees and costs paid to JAMS and the arbitrator.

d. We agree not to invoke our right to arbitrate an individual Claim that you may bring in Small Claims Court or an equivalent court, if any, so long as the Claim is pending only in that court. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NO ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS (INCLUDING AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ON BEHALF OF OTHERS), EVEN IF THE CLAIM OR CLAIMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE ARBITRATION HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSERTED (OR COULD HAVE BEEN ASSERTED) IN A COURT AS CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTIONS IN A COURT.

e. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, no party to the arbitration may join, consolidate, or otherwise bring claims for or on behalf of two or more individuals or unrelated corporate entities in the same arbitration unless those persons are parties to a single transaction. Unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, an award in arbitration shall determine the rights and obligations of the named parties only, and only with respect to the claims in arbitration, and shall not (i) determine the rights, obligations, or interests of anyone other than a named party, or resolve any Claim of anyone other than a named party, or (ii) make an award for the benefit of, or against, anyone other than a named party. No administrator or arbitrator shall have the power or authority to waive, modify, or fail to enforce this sub-section (e), and any attempt to do so, whether by rule, policy, arbitration decision or otherwise, shall be invalid and unenforceable. Any challenge to the validity of this sub-section (e) shall be determined exclusively by a court and not by the administrator or any arbitrator.

f. This Arbitration Provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by and enforceable under the FAA. The arbitrator will apply substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations. The arbitrator may award damages or other types of relief permitted by applicable substantive law, subject to the limitations set forth in this Arbitration Provision. The arbitrator will not be bound by judicial rules of procedure and evidence that would apply in a court. The arbitrator shall take steps to reasonably protect confidential information.

g. This Arbitration Provision shall survive (i) suspension, termination, revocation, closure, or amendments to this Agreement and the relationship of the parties; (ii) the bankruptcy or insolvency of any party hereto or other party; or (iii) the Closing of the Offering. If any portion of this Arbitration Provision other than sub-section (d) is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision shall nevertheless remain valid and in force. If arbitration is brought on a class, representative, or collective basis, and the limitations on such proceedings in sub-section (d) are finally adjudicated pursuant to the last sentence of sub-section (d) to be unenforceable, then no arbitration shall be had. In no event shall any invalidation be deemed to authorize an arbitrator to determine Claims or make awards beyond those authorized in this Arbitration Provision.

12. Waiver of Court & Jury Rights.

THE COMPANY AND YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT EACH HAS A RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE, BUT WILL NOT HAVE THAT RIGHT IF ANY PARTY ELECTS ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIMS IN A COURT UPON ELECTION OF ARBITRATION BY ANY PARTY. THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE SHARES OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS RELATED THERETO. THIS WAIVER OF THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL DOES NOT APPLY TO ANY CLAIMS MADE UNDER THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS.

13. Damage Limitation.

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COMPANY BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, EVEN IF INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE FOREGOING SHALL BE INTERPRETED AND HAVE EFFECT TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, RULE OR REGULATION.
