  2. 2. “Your map to a world of private ownership opportunities.”
  3. 3. Acknowledgement If you are reading this, You are an investor. On the lookout for the next big idea, a great plan, team and a vision to make things better than they are. And you have seen many, many pitch decks. Early stage investments are attractive. They have immense potential and carry high risk. We sought out early stage, high-growth opportunities to make the most out of our surplus resources. What we discovered was a vibrant industry with few participants. Tools to make sense of it were lacking. We changed course and decided to use our software development skills to help improve market accessibility. Our passion is to understand, develop, and expand the community of investors taking part in private markets.

A Tale of Two Cities Y O U R M A P T O A W O R L D O F P R I V A T E O W N E R S H I P O P P O R T U N I T I E S Population110K Contributing 133 billion in capital Number indicates the size of that group in 2014. According to a SEC Whitepaper which tracks the number of investors participating in Regulation D offerings by non-financial issuers. https://www.sec.gov/dera/staff-papers/white- papers/unregistered-offering10-2015.pdf Accredit City Population 7,000,000+ This is the population of people within the US that meet the requirements to be considered accredited to invest and have not.

  6. 6. The 2012 JOBs Act permits an "accredited investor" to participate in the private placement market. OUR CUSTOMERS
  7. 7. Individual making 200k in each of past 2 years and expecting to do so in current year, or 1 million+ in net assets (excluding primary residence) There are over 6 million individuals and 1 million businesses that meet the requirements to be considered accredited based on Income. This is a very conservative estimate not Spouses making over 300k jointly in each of past 2 years and expecting to do so in current year Businesses with more than 5 million in net assets
  8. 8. OurCustomers Individuals that fall within the purple row comprise a large and addressable market segment.

  9. 9. existing market (301,000 @ <5%) The Problem Less than 5% of the qualified population is connected and participating in private offerings. overall market of 7mil+ ~301,000 entities contributed to the $1.3 trillion in private investment in 2014, according to SEC data*. It seems very strange that < 5% of the accredited population in the US are participating in private markets, compared to 55% of US Households that report owning stock. This is especially relevant given that there are 3,000 fewer public stocks available today than there were in 1997. Sources: 1. (Gallup) Little Change in Percentage of Americans Who Own Stocks 2. https://www.wsj.com/articles/americas-roster-of-public-companies-is-shrinking-before-our-eyes-1483545879
  10. 10. Why? Business Angel investment groups utilize organic growth strategies and tend to be small trust-based referral networks which facilitate syndication, excluding large swathes of the market Individual High net worth earners are confident and highly skilled. They qualify for separately managed accounts instead of regular funds. AFEWWORDSABOUTYOURSERVICE Learners by nature, they want an easy entry. Accredited investors skillsets vary greatly, may not understand finance well (increases barrier to entry). It is confusing for a first time investor to figure out how, when, where, and why to make their first investment. As a class of legal entity, Funding Portals only came into existence in 2012 through the JOBs act. As a financial vehicle with less than 5 years in existence, maturity curve is in the stage of early adoption and organic growth
  11. 11. Why? AFEWWORDSABOUTYOURSERVICE Regulatory and Systemic The SEC’s Investor Education and outreach effort is quite limited in scope Often one has to be an insider to know about private investment opportunities Often one has to be an insider to know about private investment opportunities Regulation D issuers are generally not permitted to generally solicit investment, with the exception of rule 506(c). “These factors combine to create high barriers to entry to private capital markets.”
  12. 12. The JOBs act has created a market where investors have easy access to privately issued securities. The majority of the population has no experience with Regulation D raises. With less than 5% market saturation there is an opportunity to gain first mover advantage for a platform that designs its service architecture around the needs of that group. Even minor growth in the accredited investor population can create massive economic growth in multiple sectors. Such growth can be fueled by using proven sales and marketing strategies. The required vessel for this is a highly participatory investor-centric platform with a web and mobile friendly interface. Solution
  13. 13. Single point access to investment opportunities currently spread across multiple sites (or not viewable at all) Advocacy and Education Enrollment and Accreditation “The required vessel for this is a highly participatory investor-centric platform with a web and mobile friendly interface.” Community tools and customized reporting
  14. 14. Substantive partnerships with funding portals, funds, P.E. and V.C groups, while closely monitoring Form D registrations through EDGAR will enable us to keep our members present to various opportunities that otherwise would be unavailable.

  20. 20. Adoption User Development and Engagement “Gamification” UserDevelopment Engagement Adaption
  21. 21. The experience with Counterparty is their introduction. Counterparty is not an investment advisor, a funding portal, or broker, its’ services benefit members by making the market accessible. The design principles focus on ease of use, navigation, notification management, education and risk management; allowing for an experience where complex markets are simplified and easy to explore. ADOPTIONUSERDEVELOPMENTANDENGAGEMENT Gamified process to engage user Growth hacking via incentives for referring new members (Discounts on accreditation, etc.) Content tailoring - Track user data to learn where users are spending the most time and personalize offerings based on activity Continuously develop Content strategy and sources
  22. 22. Monetization Long term, we expect the largest driver of revenue to be Advertising. We expect a high advertising revenue per User(ARPU) due to the calibre of our members and the lengthy amount of time spent on the app. Because these figures are difficult to estimate we have not included them in our projections. Affiliate referral programs - Pre-accredited visitors are valuable to funding portals, hedge funds, P.E. and V.C. firms. $0.00 $5,000,000.00 $10,000,000.00 $15,000,000.00 $20,000,000.00 $25,000,000.00 $30,000,000.00 5,000 25,000 100,000 250,000 500,000 Paid Users (Accredited) Revenue @ $50/Membership Advertising revenue - Select companies offering complementary products. Marketing assets - Can sell “secret sauce” to other companies that target high net-worth individuals.
  23. 23. Competitive/ Partnership Landscape Traditional investment - Hedge Funds, S&P, DOW, Nasdaq, Mutual funds, Private Equity, Venture capital, family office, index funds. Funding portals (Not crowdfunding) - We funder, microventures.com, seedinvest.com, fundrise.com, CircleUp.com, angel.co, darcmatter.com, Indiegogo, Earlyshares.com, equitynet.com. Funding portals speak more to startups than to investors. Data sites - Pitchbook.com, mattermark, CB insights, privco, Crunchbase, datafox - Great data, at a cost. Traditional investment Funding portals` Data sites
  24. 24. Fundamentally, every new investor we accredit and help to get involved represents a net increase in the overall market available. With appropriate confidentiality and security in place, membership represents a targetable dataset of wealthy people in the US. Value E X I T S T R A T E R G Y
  25. 25. Large Private Equity Firms, Venture Capital Firms, diversified tech giants, Investment banking organizations Potential Acquirers E X I T S T R A T E R G Y
  26. 26. Reaching 350,000 members would mean roughly DOUBLING the overall # of accredited investors in the US. Market penetration of 50% would represent 3.5million accredited investors, roughly a 10x increase in the population investing. Our success will depend on our ability to attract users through excellent marketing, referral programs, and an excellent product and partnership network. Impact E X I T S T R A T E R G Y
