TERMS OF SERVICE

Last Revised: December 22, 2016

Firmcast, Inc. (d/b/a Searchfunder) (“Searchfunder”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) provides certain services (as described below) to users (“users”, “you”, or “your”) through its website located at www.searchfunder.com, and its subdomains and any related mobile sites (the “Site” and the services provided by Searchfunder via the site being collectively, the “Service”), subject to the following Terms of Service (“Terms of Service”).  If you use the Service on behalf of a company, organization, or other entity, then (a) “you” or “your” includes you and that entity, and (b) you represent and warrant that you are authorized to grant all permissions and licenses provided in these Terms of Service, and that you agree to these Terms of Service on the entity’s behalf. For purposes of these Terms of Service, using or accessing the Site shall constitute use of the Service.  These Terms of Service, together with (i) our Privacy Policy available at www.searchfunder.com/legal which are each hereby incorporated by reference into these Terms of Service, govern your use of the Service and your rights and obligations, and those of Searchfunder, in relation to the Service.  BY USING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE PRIVACY POLICY AND THESE TERMS OF SERVICE; IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, YOU MUST NOT USE THE SERVICE.  The Service is for use by adults only.  If you are under 18 years of age, you are not authorized to use the Service in any way.

In addition, when using certain parts or features of the Service, you will be subject to any additional terms posted on the Service, and all such terms are hereby incorporated by reference into these Terms of Service. 

You acknowledge that Searchfunder may establish general practices and limits concerning use of the Service, including but not limited to the maximum period of time that data or other content will be retained by the Service and the maximum number of Deal Posts you may create and/or claim.  You agree that Searchfunder has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any data or other content maintained or transmitted by the Service.  You acknowledge that Searchfunder reserves the right to terminate accounts that are inactive for an extended period of time.  You further acknowledge that Searchfunder reserves the right to change these general practices and limits at any time, in its sole discretion, with or without notice.

Searchfunder provides an innovative way for our community of users to match potential financers (“Buyers”) of company acquisitions: lenders and investors with well-suited Acquisition targets (“Targets”) quickly and efficiently matching Targets according to criteria such as location, industry, deal-size, and transaction type (“Criteria”) provided by the abovementioned Buyers. Targets are identified by (“Finders”) through independent channels and entered into the Service.  Any user may play the role of the Finder in addition to their default role.

 When a user becomes aware of a potential Target that the user is interested in Acquiring, the user may use the Service to find potential financing options for that Target. To do so, the Finder may create a posting on the Service describing certain basic facts about the potential Target, such as its general industry, the municipality, state or region in which it is located, and, if available, its general annual revenue range and estimated general Acquisition price range (a “Deal Post”).  The Finder agrees to provide these basic facts at a high enough level so as not to violate any outstanding Non-Disclosure Agreements when the Deal Post is created.

The Finder may then “share” the Deal Post with individuals within the Service.  The Service will provide recommendations for potential Buyers based on their Criteria.  Finders must share Deal Posts with individual potential Buyers one at a time (i.e,. a Finder is required to designate and confirm individually each potential Buyer whom the Finder wishes to share a Deal Post).  Accordingly, the Service does not permit open “listing” of Deal Posts such that a Deal Post would be visible to all users of the Service.  These requirements and limitations are intended in part to help both Searchfunder and our users comply with applicable securities laws.

See User Ratings.

Acquisitions of businesses can be structured in many different ways and often are for a variety of reasons.  For purposes of these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy, an “acquisition” (and related terms such as “acquired”) refers to any of the following transactions, in each case, in which the Buyer is a user or a Related Party of a user:

• a merger or consolidation in which (i) the Target is a constituent party or (ii) a subsidiary of the Target is a constituent party and the Target issues equity securities pursuant to such merger or consolidation, and immediately following such merger or consolidation, the Buyer (or its Related Party) owns or controls at least a majority, either by voting power or by economic interest, of the equity securities of (1) the surviving or resulting entity; or (2) if the surviving or resulting entity is a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of another entity immediately following such merger or consolidation, the direct or indirect parent entity of such surviving or resulting entity;

• a transaction or series of related transactions in which a Buyer and/or one or more of its Related Parties, either alone or together with a group of related persons and/or entities, acquires equity securities in the Target representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting power or economic interest in the Target, whether by acquiring such securities directly from the Target or from other holders of outstanding equity securities in the Target, or any combination of the foregoing;

• the sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition to a Buyer (either alone or together with one or more of its Related Parties), in a single transaction or series of related transactions, by the Target or any subsidiary of the Target of all or substantially all the assets or business of the Target and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, or the sale or disposition (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of one or more subsidiaries of the Target if substantially all of the assets or business of the Target and its subsidiaries taken as a whole are held by such subsidiary or subsidiaries, except where such sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition is to a wholly owned subsidiary of the Target; and

• the acquisition by a Buyer, either alone or together with one or more of its Related Parties, of indebtedness secured by a lien or other security interest on assets of the Target and/or its subsidiaries (whether as a result of direct issuance of indebtedness by the Target and/or its subsidiaries to the Buyer or its Related Parties, or as a result of the acquisition of such indebtedness by the Buyer or its Related Parties from a third party holder of such indebtedness), representing all or substantially all the assets or business of the Target and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, including any such indebtedness guaranteed by the Target or any of its subsidiaries.

If you choose to register for the Service by creating an account, you will be required to submit account information including your name, a username, password, email address, mailing address, and the State or other jurisdiction in which you are a resident or, if you are obtaining an account on behalf of an entity, the State or other jurisdiction in which your entity’s principal place of business is located.  You agree to provide and maintain accurate and complete registration information about yourself, and, if applicable, the organization on behalf of which you have created an account.  We manage and handle registration data and other user information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your user name and password, and are fully responsible for any and all activities that occur under your account.  You agree to (a) notify Searchfunder immediately of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account and log out of the Service at the end of each session when accessing the Service.  Searchfunder will not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage arising from failure to comply with these obligations.

Once you have registered for an account, you will be able to create a user profile for use in connection with the Service (“User Profile”).  You may include in your User Profile the information about yourself that you provided as part of the registration process.  You may also provide information about your business, including, without limitation, management and key personnel, your business philosophy and focus, and other information.  The information you provide as part of your user profile may help other users be able to identify more effectively potential Targets that may be of interest to you.

Once you have established an account with the Service, you will be able to complete and update your User Profile, to view the User Profiles of other users, and to create, share, and claim Deal Posts.

It is not necessary to register for an account with Searchfunder in order to visit the Site.  However, if you choose not to register for an account, you will not be able to access or use certain portions of the Site and certain aspects of the Service.  For example, you will not be able to create a User Profile or view, create, claim, or share Deal Posts, and other portions of the Site and the Service will be inaccessible or restricted to you as well.

Subject to the terms of the Privacy Policy, you hereby grant to Searchfunder and its subsidiaries, affiliates and agents a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable, sublicenseable, perpetual, irrevocable license to access, use, copy, display, transmit, display, publish, submit, distribute, store, modify, adapt and create derivative works from any content, information and other materials you upload, post, publish display, or otherwise make available (hereinafter, “post”) on or through the Service or transmit to or share with other users or recipients (collectively, “User Content”), or any portion thereof in any manner and in any medium or forum, whether now known or hereafter devised, without payment to you or any third party (a “User Content License”), provided that Searchfunder will not publish or otherwise publicly disclose outside of the Service any Deal Posts you create and post, except in a manner in which such Deal Posts would not be associated or identified with you (for example, by removing your name and the name of the Target from the Deal Post and replacing it with a fictitious name).  Subject to the preceding sentence, you acknowledge that this license permits Searchfunder to use your User Content for marketing, promotional, and other commercial purposes.  You acknowledge and agree that Searchfunder’s use of User Content is governed by the Searchfunder Privacy Policy.

The Service, including the Site, may contain links or other references to or advertisements for other sites, mobile applications, services or products (“Third Party Products”). Third Party Products are provided solely as a convenience to you and may contain materials which you find objectionable, offensive, unlawful or inaccurate.  Third Party Products are governed by their own terms of service and privacy policies which may differ from these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. The inclusion of links or other references to or advertisements for Third Party Products does not indicate that we endorse them and we are not responsible for examining or evaluating the content of such Third Party Products.  You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any interaction with any third parties in connection with any Third Party Products.  You agree that Searchfunder and its subsidiaries and affiliates shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such interaction or your use of any Third Party Product.

You agree that Searchfunder, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if Searchfunder believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms of Service.  Any suspected fraudulent, abusive or illegal activity may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities.  You agree that any termination of your access to the Service may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that Searchfunder may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Service.  Further, you agree that Searchfunder shall not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Service.

Without limiting the generality of the previous sentence, each user agrees that all obligations (i) of a Buyer to make full payment of Finder Fees and to deliver copies of properly completed IRS Forms 1099-MISC to any applicable Finders, and (ii) of a Finder to deliver properly completed Payment Documentation in a timely manner, pursuant to Sections 1 and 4 above shall survive any termination of these Terms of Service. 

YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS.  SEARCHFUNDER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO TIMELINESS, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, RELIABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.  SEARCHFUNDER MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE SERVICE, ANY PROPRIETARY MATERIAL, ANY USER CONTENT, OR ANY MATERIAL DOWNLOADED OR OTHERWISE OBTAINED THROUGH THE USE OF THE SERVICE, ANY DEAL POST, ANY SITE LINKED TO THE SERVICE.  SEARCHFUNDER DOES NOT WARRANT, ENDORSE, GUARANTEE OR ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY THIRD PARTY PRODUCT AND SEARCHFUNDER WILL NOT BE A PARTY TO OR IN ANY WAY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MONITORING ANY INTERACTION BETWEEN YOU AND ANY THIRD PARTY.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, NEITHER SEARCHFUNDER NOR ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES OR LICENSORS WARRANT THAT ACCESS TO THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE ERROR-FREE; NOR DO THEY MAKE ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICE.  NEITHER SEARCHFUNDER NOR ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES OR LICENSORS WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE IS FREE FROM VIRUSES, WORMS, TROJAN HORSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.  NEITHER SEARCHFUNDER NOR ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES OR LICENSORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT, WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF YOU OR OTHER USER, INCLUDING IN THEIR CAPACITIES AS BUYERS AND FINDERS.

SEARCHFUNDER DOES NOT WARRANT OR GUARANTY THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO ACT AS A FINDER OR BECOME ENTITLED TO RECEIVE ANY FINDER FEE AS A RESULT OF USING THE SERVICE, OR THAT, IN THE EVENT YOU BECOME ENTITLED TO RECEIVE A FINDER FEE, THAT THE BUYER WILL PAY ANY OR ALL OF SUCH FINDER FEE TO YOU, OR THAT SUCH AMOUNT WILL BE PAID IN A TIMELY MANNER.  SEARCHFUNDER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO ACT AS A BUYER AND COMPLETE ONE OR MORE ACQUISITIONS AS A RESULT OF VIEWING OR CLAIMING ONE OR MORE DEAL POSTS OR OTHERWISE USING THE SERVICE. 

SEARCHFUNDER DOES NOT MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, GUARANTIES, OR RECOMMENDATIONS REGARDING THE ACQUISITION, OFFER, OR SALE OF ANY TARGET, OR THE BUSINESS OR SECURITIES OF ANY TARGET, OR THAT ANY BUYER THAT ACQUIRES A TARGET WILL OBTAIN ANY RESULTS (WHETHER FINANCIAL, COMMERCIAL, OR OTHERWISE) OF ACQUIRING OR OPERATING THE BUSINESS OF SUCH TARGET.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM SEARCHFUNDER, OR THROUGH OR FROM THE SERVICE, SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS OF SERVICE.

By using the Service, by sharing or claiming any Deal Post, or participating in any Acquisition (whether as a Buyer or other party), you agree that you release and discharge Searchfunder and its directors, officers, employees, agents, licensors, attorneys, independent contractors, providers, subsidiaries and affiliates (the “Searchfunder Entities”) from any and all losses, damages, rights, claims, proceedings, actions of any kind and injury (including death), penalties, fines, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (each, a “Claim”) arising out of or relating to the Service, your use of the Service, or any act or omission by any person, including without limitation, any dispute between you and any other person, any content posted on the Service, and your participation in any Acquisition (whether as a Buyer or other party).  If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

You agree to indemnify and hold Searchfunder and the Searchfunder Entities harmless from any Claim made by any third party arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service, your participation in any Acquisition (whether as a Buyer or other party), any material you post or transmit via the Service, any breach by you or any user of your account of these Terms of Service, or any violation by you of any rights of any third party. 

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL SEARCHFUNDER OR THE SEARCHFUNDER ENTITIES BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF SEARCHFUNDER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE OR USE OF THE SERVICE. 

YOUR SOLE REMEDY FOR DISSATISFACTION WITH THE SERVICE IS TO STOP USING THE SERVICE. THE MAXIMUM LIABILITY OF SEARCHFUNDER FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES AND CAUSES OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF FINDER FEES PAID TO YOU BY BUYERS IN CONNECTION WITH ACQUISITIONS RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICE, IF ANY, DURING THE SIX (6) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE DATE OF THE FIRST OCCURRENCE GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY.  

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IF YOU ARE DISSATISFIED WITH ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE OR WITH THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO DISCONTINUE USE OF THE SERVICE.

Searchfunder respects the intellectual property of others, and we ask our users to do the same.  Searchfunder will promptly process and investigate notices of alleged infringement, including with respect to User Content, and will take appropriate actions under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) and other applicable intellectual property laws with respect to any alleged or actual infringement.  In an effort to protect the rights of copyright owners, Searchfunder maintains a policy for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of users of the Service who are repeat infringers.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms of Service at our sole discretion.  Any such modifications will be effective immediately upon posting. The date of the latest revision will always appear at the top of the page.  You should periodically visit this page to review the current Terms of Service so you are aware of any modification to which you are bound.

Searchfunder reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice.  You agree that Searchfunder and its subsidiaries and affiliates shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service, or of any part of the Service.

These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and Searchfunder and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and Searchfunder with respect to the Service.  You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use third-party services, content or software.  These Terms of Service shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflict of law provisions.  You and Searchfunder agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within New York County, New York.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY CLAIMS, COUNTERCLAIMS, CROSS-CLAIMS, OR THIRD PARTY CLAIMS) ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.  FURTHER, EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF EITHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT IN THE EVENT OF SUCH LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL PROVISION. EACH OF THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS SECTION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE OTHER PARTY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE.  The failure of Searchfunder to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.  If any provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Service remain in full force and effect.  You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.  A printed version of these Terms of Service and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms of Service to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.  The section titles in these Terms of Service are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.  Notices to you may be made via either email or regular mail.  The Service may also provide notices to you of changes to these Terms of Service or other matters by displaying notices or links to notices generally on the Service.  These Terms of Service may not be assigned by you without the prior written consent of Searchfunder.
