VIP BONDS
SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT INSTRUCTION PAGE
We, Versity Invest, LLC (“we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company”), are offering a maximum of $75,000,000 in the aggregate, of our 8.0% Class A VIP Bonds, and its 8.0% Class R VIP Bonds, and collectively the “Bonds,” pursuant to the offering circular (the “Offering Circular”) dated (TBD) (the “Offering”) as amended. The purchase price per Bond is $1,000 (or as discounted for net of commission transactions), with a minimum purchase amount of $5,000. The maximum offering amount of Bonds across both classes is $75,000,000; however, the sale of the Class R Bonds will be limited to a maximum of $15,000,000.
The Company will conduct closings in this offering on the first and third Thursday of each month or the “closing dates,” and each, a “closing date,” until the offering termination. For all closings, subscription funds will be deposited into a Company bank or brokerage account. Once a subscription has been submitted and accepted by the Company, an investor will not have the right to request the return of its subscription payment prior to the next closing date. If subscriptions are received on a closing date and accepted by the Company prior to such closing, any such subscriptions will be closed on that closing date. If subscriptions are received on a closing date but not accepted by the Company prior to such closing, any such subscriptions will be closed on the next closing date. It is expected that settlement will occur on the same day as each closing date. On each closing date, offering proceeds for that closing will be disbursed to us and Bonds will be issued to investors, or the “Bondholders.” If the Company is dissolved or liquidated after the acceptance of a subscription, the respective subscription payment will be returned to the subscriber.

7. | Investor Eligibility Certifications |
I understand that to purchase Bonds, I must either be an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the act, or I must limit my investment in the Bonds to a maximum of: (i) 10% of my net worth or annual income, whichever is greater, if I am a natural person; or (ii) 10% of my revenues or net assets, whichever is greater, for my most recently completed fiscal year, if I am a non-natural person.
I understand that if I am a natural person I should determine my net worth for purposes of these representations by calculating the difference between my total assets and total liabilities. I understand this calculation must exclude the value of my primary residence and may exclude any indebtedness secured by my primary residence (up to an amount equal to the value of your primary residence). In the case of fiduciary accounts, net worth and/or income suitability requirements may be satisfied by the beneficiary of the account or by the fiduciary, if the fiduciary directly or indirectly provides funds for the purchase of the Bonds.
I hereby represent and warrant that I meet the qualifications to purchase Bonds because (please mark one):
I am a natural person, and the aggregate purchase price for the Bonds I am purchasing in the offering does not exceed 10% of my net worth or annual income, whichever is greater.
I am a non-natural person, and the aggregate purchase price for the Bonds I am purchasing in the offering does not exceed 10% of my revenues or net assets, whichever is greater, for my most recently completed fiscal year.
I am an accredited investor.
If you marked that you are an accredited investor, please complete Addendum A, attached hereto, and return it with this Subscription Agreement. If Addendum A is not received with this Subscription Agreement, your subscription will not be accepted.

The 2001 E-Sign Act was meant to ease the adoption of electronic signatures.

If any such electronically sent communication fails to be received for any reason, including but not limited to such communications being diverted to the recipients spam filters by the recipients email service provider, or due to a recipient’s change of address, or due to technology issues by the recipient’s service provider, the parties agree that the burden of such failure to receive is on the recipient and not the sender, and that the sender is under no obligation to resend communications via any other means, including but not limited to postal service or overnight courier, and that such communications shall for all purposes, including legal and regulatory, be deemed to have been delivered and received.
