Terms & Conditions

Welcome to Fundsup. These Terms and Conditions apply to all current and/or future online early-stage deal discovery services (“Services”) offered by Fundsup B.V., a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of The Netherlands, having its seat in Amsterdam, The Netherlands and its office address at Padualaan 8, 3584 CH Utrecht, The Netherlands, registered with the Trade Register of the Chamber of Commerce under number 64435210 (“Fundsup”) to users (of whatever nature) of the Services. This is the last version of the Terms and Conditions dated 7 January
2019.

These Terms and Conditions may be subject to changes and updates in order to keep up with the improvements made to the Services or changes in laws and regulations. In case of any changes and updates in these Terms and Conditions, the User will be notified at least fourteen (14) days in advance and provided with the latest version.

In these Terms and Conditions, the following definitions shall have the following meaning:

1. Membership

1. 1.
After the User has successfully created an Account and has chosen a Subscription, the User can make use
of the Services and the Subscription Cycle starts.

1. 2.
The User’s Subscription automatically renews at the end of each Subscription Cycle under the same

conditions. Fundsup has the right to change the conditions of every new Subscription Cycle. The User will be
notified of any changes in the conditions in advance and has the right to terminate the Subscription at the
end of the current Subscription Cycle.

2. Fees and Termination

2. 1.
Fundsup may offer a User a Subscription with Free Trial either by generic subscription or via
subscription making use of a unique link or code.

2. 2.
Free Trial eligibility is determined by Fundsup in its sole discretion. Fundsup may at all times limit
the eligibility and/or duration of a Free Trial and has the right to revoke a Free Trial in the event that
Fundsup deems that the User is not eligible. A Free Trial means that a User can use the Services for one or
more Subscription Cycles for free. The User will be notified before the expiration of the Free Trial. After
expiration of the Free Trial and at the start of a new Subscription Cycle the User will be billed the
applicable Subscription fees, unless the User terminates the Subscription as described above.

3. Services

3. 1.
The Subscription fees can be found at https://fundsup.co/pricing.

3. 2.

Fundsup, in its sole discretion and at any time, may modify the Subscription fees. The modified
Subscriptions fee enters into effect at the start of any new Subscription Cycle. Users will be notified of
any modifications in the Subscription fees in advance and shall have the right to terminate the Subscription
at the end of the current Subscription Cycle.

3. 3.

The Subscriptions fees are billed in advance of every Subscription Cycle. A valid payment (and contracted)
method that may vary from time to time and may depend on a User’s domicile, is required to process the
payment for the Subscription. Users shall provide Fundsup with accurate and complete billing information
including full name, address, state, zip code, telephone number, and valid payment method information. By
submitting payment information, a User automatically authorize Fundsup to charge all Subscription fees
incurred through its account to any such payment instruments.

3. 4.

Should automatic billing fail to occur for any reason, Fundsup will issue an electronic invoice indicating
that the User must proceed manually within seven (7) days of the invoice date, with the full payment
corresponding to the billing period as indicated on the invoice.

3. 5.

Users can terminate their Subscription at the end of every Subscription Cycle and cancel the automatic
Subscription renewal through the Account management page or by contacting the Fundsup customer support team.

3. 6.

In case of any breach of contract, violation of applicable laws and regulations, inappropriate behavior or
other reason necessary, Fundsup may terminate or suspend a User’s Subscription and Account immediately,
without prior notice or liability. Upon termination, the User’s right to use the Service will immediately
cease. In addition, Fundsup may always terminate or suspend a User’s Subscription and Account at the end of
the current Subscription Cycle for any reason.

3. 7.

Generally, all charges for purchases are nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially
used periods. Fundsup may make an exception if a refund for a subscription offering is requested within
fourteen days of the transaction date.

4. Free Trials

4. 1.

Fundsup offers Services, which Services may be accessed via the App and Web. By means of the Services
Fundsup helps to connect Companies to Investors. Companies are introduced to Investors based on algorithms
that combine amongst others the information uploaded by the Companies and the preferences set by Investors.
Based on the Profile an Investor can decide whether or not it would like to follow and perhaps contact the
Company. The Services may from time to time also provide for subscription by certain third parties who shall
be granted certain data from the Services in order to offer services of their own to Users, that may be
interesting to such Users.

4. 2.

As Fundsup’s mission is to take the friction out of early-stage fundraising through data-driven matchmaking,
Fundsup is always striving to improve its Services and offer its Users additional functionality they find
useful. This means Fundsup may add new product features or enhancements from time to time and may as well as
remove some features.

4. 3.

Fundsup offers its Services to Users following approval by Fundsup. Any User that signs up to Fundsup will
be subject to screening, during which Fundsup reserves the right to reject any User. Following a successful
screening and approval by Fundsup, Fundsup offers its Services to two types of Users:

Investors

Fundsup gives Investors access to a pool of relevant Companies. After entering its preferences, the
Fundsup recommendation algorithm displays Companies that are the most relevant to the preferences of
Investors. To initiate contact with an Company, the Investors can indicate a Match. If an Investor is not
ready to indicate its interest in an Company, the Investor can ‘track’ the Company in order to be kept up
to date with its progress.

Apart from the offering of Services to Investors, the Services also provide for the Enterprise Account,
that allows for multiple Subaccounts being managed by the Administrator. The Administrator has the right
to offer/revoke access to the relevant sub Accounts. The various Subaccounts within an Enterprise Account
are enabled to directly share information and Profiles of Companies with each other and manage a deal.


Companies


After publication and having been admitted to the Fundsup platform, Fundsup displays the profile of
Companies to Investors. The level of exposure of a User’s Profile to Investors is based on Fundsup’s
algorithms. Fundsup features a Dashboard for Companies, where insights are provided about the level of
exposure that an Company is receiving from Investors, as well as other useful insights that enable
Companies to quickly improve their profiles, such as (aggregated) feedback from Investors.

4. 4.

As referred to here above, Fundsup offers a platform for early stage deal discovery. Fundsup undertakes to
deliver Services that meet the reasonable commercial standards and to use its best efforts to improve the
Services on a regular basis. This means that Users can use the App or the Web and its/their functionalities,
access their Account and view Profiles of other users.

4. 5.

From time to time, Fundsup may offer products and services for purchase through iTunes, Google Play or other
application platforms authorized by Fundsup. If a User chooses to make an in app purchase, the User will be
prompted to enter details for the User’s account with its relevant application platform, and the User’s
account with such application platform will be charged for the in app purchase in accordance with the terms
disclosed to the User at the time of purchase as well as the general terms for in app purchases that apply
to User’s account with the application platform. Some application platforms may charge a User sales or other
tax, depending on where the User lives. If a User purchases an auto-recurring periodic subscription through
an in app purchase, User’s account with the application platform will continue to be billed for the
subscription until the User cancels. After a User’s initial subscription commitment period, and again after
any subsequent subscription period, the subscription will automatically continue for an additional
equivalent period, at the price agreed to upon subscribing. If a User does not wish its subscription to
renew automatically, or if a User wants to change or terminate its subscription, the User will need to log
in to its account with the application platform and follow instructions to cancel its subscription, even if
the User has otherwise deleted its account with Fundsup or if the User has deleted the Fundsup application
from its device. Deleting an account on Fundsup or deleting the Fundsup application from a device does not
cancel a User’s subscription; Fundsup will retain all funds charged to a User’s account with the application
platform until such User cancels its subscription through its account with the application platform.

4. 6.

Fundsup does not guarantee any result or outcome of the Services and/or of any products and services offered
for purchase through iTunes, Google Play or other application platforms authorized by Fundsup. Fundsup
explicitly does not guarantee that the Services result in a Match or any sort of deal, in any business
relationship or in any commercial or investment transaction with other Users. Unless explicitly indicated
otherwise, the Services do not include any research or due diligence on its Users and explicitly does not
include any investment, financial, tax, legal or other advice. Unless explicitly indicated otherwise, any
and all information uploaded to the Fundsup platform is uploaded by the Users and has not in any manner been
verified by Fundsup. Any transaction by and between Users is made for the sole risk and account of the
relevant parties even if a Company is recommended or endorsed by any other person on the Fundsup platform.

4. 7.

Though Fundsup strives to encourage a respectful user experience through features like the Investor opt-in
that only allows Investor to initiate communication if they have indicated interest in a Company, Fundsup is
not responsible for the conduct of any user on or outside of the Service. Users agree to use caution in all
interactions with other Users, particularly if a User decides to communicate outside of the Services or meet
in person.

4. 8.

Fundsup, its subsidiaries, affiliates, and its licensors do not warrant that a) the Services will function
uninterrupted or secure and is available at any particular time or location, b) any errors or defects will
be corrected, c) the Service is free of viruses or other harmful components or d) the results of using the
Service will meet the Users requirements.

4. 9.

A failure in the performance of the Services or any agreement cannot be invoked against Fundsup, if such
does not arise from (i) an attributable failure by Fundsup and/or the third party/parties deployed by it
and/or (ii) a failure for which Fundsup and/or the third party/parties deployed by it can be held
responsible for this pursuant to the law and is not the result of force majeure within the meaning as
described below.

4. 10.

In the event of any non-attributable non-performance the relevant part of the Services or agreement will be
suspended. Fundsup will notify the User of such an event as soon as possible, even if such an event only
concerns the third party/parties deployed by it.

4. 11.

“Force majeure” shall be understood to mean: circumstances or events that are beyond Fundsup’s control and
will – irrespective of whether these circumstances or events were anticipated or could be anticipated at the
moment of accepting these Terms and Conditions or signing any agreement – as a result of which the Fundsup
cannot reasonably be obliged to meet its obligations under any agreement. These circumstances or events
comprise in any case, but not exclusively: war, fire, floods, earthquakes, labor disputes, strikes,
epidemics, government rules and/or similar rules, embargos, non-performance by suppliers or subcontractors
or any other third party/parties deployed by Fundsup for the execution of any agreement, interruption of the
electricity supply and the non-availability of telecommunication services.

4. 12.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Fundsup or its employees, affiliates, licensors or service providers are not
liable for any loss or damage to users of the Services other than loss or damage that is caused by gross
negligence or willful misconduct (“opzet of bewuste roekeloosheid”). This includes – but is not limited to –
loss of profits, data, goodwill and market opportunities resulting from i) access to, use of or inability to
access or use the Services, ii) conduct or content of other user of the Services, either on, through or
following the Services and iii) unauthorized access to or use and alteration of the Services and/or Accounts
by others.

4. 13.

In case Fundsup is found liable, Fundsup will only be liable for the amount that equals the aggregate of the
Subscription Fees paid by User in the last two months before the damage-causing event (“schadeveroorzakende
gebeurtenis”).

4. 14.

Users must use the Services in an appropriate manner. Users are not allowed to use the Services in a way
that violates any applicable laws, regulations or these Terms and Conditions, infringes on anyone’s rights,
is offensive, or interferes with the Services or any features of the Services.

Fundsup is not responsible for such content and cannot guarantee that other users comply with these Terms
and Conditions.

Account, the User needs to provide Fundsup with information that is accurate, complete and current at all
times. If a Users information changes at any time, the User should update its Account to reflect those
changes. Failure to do so will constitute a breach of these Terms and Conditions, which may result in
immediate termination of the contract and access to a User’s Account and the Services.
