THIS IS A PROPERTY INVESTMENT FRAMEWORK AGREEMENT BETWEEN USERS OF CROWDLORDS.COM AND CROWDLORDS LIMITED

LEGAL NOTICE: THESE ARE LEGAL DOCUMENTS WHOSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS MUST BE ACCEPTED IF YOU ARE TO USE THIS WEBSITE AND INVEST. YOU ARE INVITED TO SEEK INDEPENDENT LEGAL ADVICE BEFORE REGISTERING AND INVESTING.

This Website is operated by CrowdLords Limited ("CL"), a company limited by shares and incorporated and registered in England and Wales with company number 08868588 whose registered office is at Lance Levy Farmhouse, Wildmoor Lane, Hook, England RG27 0HB.

CL is an appointed representative of Share In Limited whose registration number is 603332 and is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"). CL is also registered with the Information Commissioners Officer as a data controller (ZA083196).

This Property Investment Framework Agreement ("Framework Agreement") is entered into between CL and any person who wishes to invest in one or several properties (the "Investor") whether as a Managing Investor ("MI") or a Crowd Investor ("CI"), or both. MIs can only participate in equity investments, whereas CIs can acquire debt or equity investments (or possibly both).

CL provides a web-based crowdfunding platform that brings together people who wish to invest in property-related investments, including shares and bonds issued by companies operating in the real estate sector (“Property Companies”).

MIs will identify one or several suitable properties to be listed for equity investment on the CL Platform and together with CIs, a MI either by himself or with joint MIs will invest through shares issued by a Property Company and become an officer of that Property Company to enable it to discharge its property management role. CIs will be able to invest in Property Companies available on the CL Platform, but will not be involved in the running of the Property Companies they invest in.

The Investor is required in relation to each Investment Opportunity to agree the contractual terms of investment and in addition an MI must enter into a Management Agreement for each Property Company as a condition of investment.

This Framework Agreement will continue to bind Investors in addition to any subsequent Investment Opportunity Contracts, but in the event of conflict, the terms of an Investment Opportunity Contract shall prevail.

4. INVESTMENT PROCESS FOR AN MI

4.1 In order to apply to have an Investment Opportunity marketed through the Website, an Investor should register as an MI and complete a Financial Proposal, which will entail providing information about the Investment Opportunity, warranting the accuracy of the information provided and that necessary consents have been acquired to market the property.

4.2 If in its absolute discretion, CL accepts the proposed Financial Proposal, the MI will:

(a) Make the offer to purchase the Target Property if he has not already done so;

(b) Use CL's Nominated Conveyancers and Nominated Surveyors to conduct the usual and necessary processes involved in property transactions;

(c) Be liable for the Due Diligence Costs for the Target Property including in the event that if the purchase of the Target Property does not complete, including but not limited to:

(i) The legal costs associated with the Nominated Conveyancer's due diligence checks on the Target Property; and

(ii) The costs associated with a surveyor's report to be procured from the Nominated Surveyor.

(iii) The costs associated with appointing an agent to sell the Target Property where instructed to do so by CL

(d) Not undertake any act or omission which has the effect of bringing CL into disrepute;

(e) Invest the Agreed Capital Investment in each Investment Opportunity (if there are more than one); and

(f) Pay the associated costs in dissolving the Property Company if for whatever reason the purchase of the Target Property does not complete.

4.3 If CL in its absolute discretion is satisfied with the results of the due diligence referred to in clause 4.2, the Target Property will be listed on the CL Platform.

4.4 Each MI acknowledges that, in preparing the Investment Opportunity Contracts, CL will impose requirements upon the MI as a condition to listing the Investment Opportunity on the Website. CL shall have complete discretion as to what requirements it may impose, both in terms of the resources CL requires to offer the Investment Opportunity, the resources the MI is required to provide and the protections that CIs will receive. The MI’s obligation to pay the Listing Fee will arise prior to CL completing its due diligence. The Listing Fee shall not be refundable, even if the Investment Opportunity is not listed or is withdrawn from the Website for any reason.

4.5 Where the MI and CL agree as part of the Financial Proposal, the MI will inject equity into the Property Company in order to cover initial costs and expenses in advance of the Property Company becoming listed on the Website. This may, for example, relate to a deposit or reservation fee in respect of exchange of contracts for purchase of a Target Property, part of the acquisition cost or associated expenses. This money will be held to CL’s order. If the purchase of the subscription process is successful, then the Property Company may redeem the proportion of MI’s equity that has been subsequently raised from the CIs. The success of the subscription and the purchase of the Target Property is at the MI’s risk and the MI may lose all of the capital invested.

4.6 MIs and CIs may have different rights to returns pursuant to different classes of investment in order to reflect the different contributions they bring to the Property Company. These rights will be set out in the Investment Opportunity Contracts.

4.7 On the completion of a purchase of each Target Property, MI will manage the Target Property in accordance with the Management Agreement.

5. INVESTMENT PROCESS FOR A CI

5.1 In order to apply to subscribe to invest in a Property Company as a CI, an Investor should register as a CI and enter into the terms of the relevant Investment Opportunity Contracts. Investment will be subject to any stated minimum subscription amount.

5.2 CL reserves the right to remove any Investment Opportunity from the Website at any time in its absolute discretion. CIs will receive interest equivalent to 3% per annum on all committed funds from the day of investment until: the property is purchased (for equity investments); the securities are issued (for debt investments); or the funds are released to the CI if the transaction falls through. These returns will be paid out on the completion of the property purchase. Once a CI has subscribed for investments and the Property Company has committed to deploy the subscription proceeds or the securities have been issued, the subscription cannot be cancelled by the CI.

5.3 If requisite funds are raised in respect of an Investment Opportunity by the Closing Date, CL will circulate an email to relevant Investors giving at least 5 days' notice that the purchase of the Target Property will be going ahead via the CL Platform.

5.4 The Property Company will use the money for the purposes stated on the Website.

5.5 Subject to clause 5.6, if the Minimum Subscription Amount is not reached in respect of an Investment Opportunity or upon earlier termination of the listing at the discretion of CL, the listing will terminate and the funds will be returned in full together with interest pursuant to clause 5.2 within 14 days.
