Fan Controlled Football (FCF) is a new category of interactive entertainment that blurs the line between traditional sports and video games, with a fan-controlled league that puts owners (you!) in control of everything from real-time play calls to jersey designs.

Video games and esports have dramatically changed consumer expectations for entertainment. Younger fans now require short form content, digital distribution and interactivity, paving the way for the skyrocketing use of platforms like Twitch. 

As leagues and teams are scrambling to find new ways to connect and engage, FCF presents fans with a next-gen solution.

''How does it work?'' It all starts with choosing a team.

== Team ==

== Meet the 8oki ==
What happens when you mix a world renowned DJ and an anonymous art dealer that lives in the Metaverse? You get a rare collab called 8oki.

These Ballerz wield so much power they can spin Fan Controlled Football into a neon future. As 8oki’s cleats hit the turf these mindful masters of the game kick FCF into high gear with electric, non-stop play. In season v2.0 they are looking to make the beat drop on anyone who steps to them.

Team Owners: 

* Steve Aoki - World renowned DJ
* 888 - Anonymous art dealer that lives in the Metaverse
* You - Invest in the 8oki

== What it is ==

== FCF is both an exciting brand of highly competitive football and an engaging digital game ==

=== where fans are a real part of their team's success. ===
Each team is led by famous owners who actively engage their fans to help make all of their team's key decisions. FCF games are played on a set designed exclusively for the digital audience and all games are streamed live on Twitch, giving fans at home a truly interactive sports experience.

* Multi-year content distribution agreement  with Amazon's Twitch
* Centralized model enabling shared services across teams for maximum efficiency and production value
* Interactive experience adds scalable digital revenue streams on top of the established models for pro-sports monetization
* Global reach of 100M+ rabid fans enabled through organic involvement of famous team owners

== How it works ==

=== Fans call the shots like a real-life video game ===
Fans interact with their team owners, who give advice as part of their live commentary during every game.

== Fan participation ==

=== A game where the fans and the players are on the same team ===
'''Participation is free and all fans have a voice, but not all fans are created equal.'''

[[File:2832ab0892d793025571213fe916639fae9b6fc1.png]]

Fans earn FAN IQ by engaging in the FCF ecosystem, voting, drafting players, calling plays, consuming and creating content, engaging with partners, recruiting fans to their team and more.

The more FAN IQ you earn, the more you rack up badges and reach higher levels on the leaderboard. As you level-up, your voting power increases relative to other fans of your team, and your badges provide special powers and boosts during the weekly draft and games. 

FCF presents a unique opportunity for sports fans to actually get out what they put in, and truly make an impact for their team's success on the field.

The FCF is making fantasy football a reality.

== Celebrity backing ==

=== Influential team owners drive awareness + fandom ===
[[File:24a2d42ba81b12d9df1366b14fb0f21f12b7565.png]]

Rather than using the traditional model of sports teams being tied to a home city, the FCF has created unique brands for each team that align with the famous fans in their ownership group. 

In Season v1.0, the league was comprised of the hard hitting Beasts, ultra cool Glacier Boyz, party animal Zappers and the reigning People's Champions, the Shoulda Been Stars. 

When the league expanded by four teams with the Ballerz Collective, we worked with prominent members of the NFT community—including Steve Aoki, Jack Settleman, Cynthia Frelund, Jamal Anderson and Ronde + Tiki Barber—to create the Bored Ape Football Club, Kingpins, Knights of Degen and 8oki.

FCF fans choose to join the squad they most identify with, creating die hard fandom with no geographic borders.

Famous Team Owners actively engage with their fans to determine their team’s unique strategy—from the team names and logos (which were all fan submissions), to the players that get drafted and the type of offense they run.

Team Owners drive awareness of their team and the league by actively promoting on social, creating content around team and league votes, co-streaming their games on Twitch and participating in podcasts, interviews and more.

Team Ownership Groups were formed by pairing influential celebrities with big name NFL players. Combined, we tap into a social-influencer base reaching more than 100 million followers. 

== Funding ==

=== Backed by A-list VCs, Hall of Fame QBs, and the cofounders of Bleacher Report and Reddit ===
[[File:7cb40ad206163231b7967dbbb9dbf8370f22290.png]]

FCF closed a Series A round in December 2021 led by '''Animoca Brands and Delphi Digital with participation from Lightspeed Venture Partners, Verizon Ventures, Talis Capital, Correlation Ventures, Next10 Ventures, Basecamp Fund, Gemini Frontier Fund, 6th Man Ventures, Jump Crypto, Red Beard Ventures, Spartan Capital, NGC Ventures.''' 

Other notable equity owners include: 

* '''Twitch - owned by Amazon'''
* '''Joe Montana - NFL Hall of Fame QB'''
* '''Alexis Ohanian - cofounder and former CEO of Reddit'''
* '''Dave Finocchio - cofounder and former CEO of BleacherReport'''
* '''Sebastian Borget - co-founder of The Sandbox'''

Our vision from day one was to put fans into the game like never before, and that includes the owner's box. In Season v1.0, we launched Republic campaigns for each of the OG teams, all of which sold out. We're thrilled to be able to open another round of equity in each of those teams, as well provide an initial offering for each team in the Ballerz Collective. We're blessed to be backed by some of the best investors on the planet, but at the end of the day FCF doesn't work without you, the fans. Join us!

== Key partners ==

=== Major distribution partners include Twitch and NBC Universal ===
[[File:7219af12d377186d634b4de0c0441efc73eb3292.png]]

Our vision and execution thus far has attracted key strategic and distribution partners for the league, extending our reach to fans across the globe.

=== Big brand sponsors include Progressive Insurance, Wendy's, Russell Athletic, Experian and Hornitos ===
[[File:B5f35474f47d3bb2ccb147e46fcadb3e1ff65614.png]]

FCF has secured multiple six-figure sponsorship deals for it's first season. These brands are looking for an authentic way to get in front of the highly coveted Male 18-34 audience that makes up the majority of the FCF fanbase. And FCF's mix of real pro football that plays like a video game for fans is something sponsors are very eager to attach their brand to.

== Venue and production ==

=== A world-class broadcast from the FCF studio arena ===

[[File:603981e92e13533367306c517d812e37f91e0e00.png]]

Our unique venue is designed to create the cutting edge viewing experience that streaming audiences demand.

* All games are streamed live on Twitch and distributed on NBCLX, Peacock, Fubo Sports Network, and DAZN from our football soundstage at the historic Pullman Yards in Atlanta, GA
* Full control of the venue and set design akin to a motion picture production so as to maximize the digital experience
* Dramatically reduced overhead with only one lease and shared services and personnel across the entire league
* No travel - all players and coaches live in one location and are shuttled between hotel and venue maintaining a virus-free bubble
* Players and staff are in close quarters in the venue and nearby housing for the duration of the season, providing new opportunities for a full slate of original content to be produced in-house

== Business model ==

=== A streamlined cost model, a dynamic revenue model, and an entirely new approach to the business of sports ===
FCF's business model is revolutionary when compared to traditional leagues. 

Instead of playing in multiple venues across the country (which creates the need to replicate coaching and front office staffs in each market and imposes significant travel costs), the FCF uses a unified model of shared costs and services to ensure a far lower operational cost that other alternative football leagues. This creates a best-in-class cost model that will drive profitability early in the life cycle of the company.

FCF's approach enables multiple revenue streams: traditional sources including sponsorship, live game rights and merchandise alongside more modern digital monetization.

On the digital front, FCF employs a "freemium" video game revenue model whereby it is entirely free for fans to join and participate, with in-app micro transactions built into the virtual economy of Fan IQ. Additionally, through Twitch, FCF offers content-focused digital subscriptions to enable die hard fans with premium access inside the locker room and onto the practice fields.

With the addition of the Ballerz Collective, fans have the opportunity to purchase NFTs that give holders unique IRL utility—including increased voting power at pivotal moments of the game, VIP experiences, and signed memorabilia. 

== Market ==

=== FCF is positioned at the intersection of two booming industries, ===

=== traditional sports and esports providing a vast market opportunity. ===
Sports in the United States alone is a $75B industry, and football is king. Average franchise values in the NFL topped $3B in 2020 and show no signs of stopping.

[[File:F0d15cf00d8be3a7ef2ef187523a01e4e1c60ce2.png]]

According to NewZoo, esports total audience and revenue is forecasted to rise significantly over the next several years. Perhaps even more exciting, esports is projected to have more viewers than every pro sports league but the NFL in 2021. FCF is perfect positioned to take advantage of these trends

== Competition and proof of concept ==

=== FCF is pioneering an entirely new category of interactive, fan-controlled pro sports ===
We have a chance to shape the future of sports, one where fan participation is just as important as the participation of the athletes on the field. We've been working since 2015 to make this dream a reality, and we have first mover advantage in a category we get to define. We also secured a patent for real-time play calling to help us "build a moat" to protect what we're creating. 

=== A vision this bold needs some early validation: ===
[[File:Caaff6ec510e56fd9352841ba005f79a3bb095dd.png]]

Which is why we decided to purchase a new franchise in the Indoor Football League to test our fan-controlled ideas. We owned and operated the Salt Lake Screaming Eagles during the 2017 IFL season, and after 16 games we left with some tremendous results. 

[[File:6420dedf8ec2ca322d6fca47bfa658341301f119.png]] 

Our lead investor, Jeremy Liew of Lightspeed Venture Partners, said "''This is the most elaborate “proof of concept” that we’ve ever seen!''" 

Read his blog post on Medium to see why.

=== Flash forward to the star-studded talent making an impact on the league: ===
Outside of the D1 athletes we've brought into the league, we've been able to add some famous faces to the mix! With NFL legends and well-known personalities like Johnny Manziel, Josh Gordon, Robert Turbin, Martavis Bryant, Kelly Bryant, and Terrell Owens.

== Founders ==

== Led by a world-class team of seasoned entrepreneurs and industry vets ==
Our founding team at FCF has multiple venture backed successful exits under their belt, and some experience playing in the NFL too (only one of us can say that!). Our exec team is comprised of an incredible balance of big league (NFL, NBA, MLB) executives, other sports property executives (AFL, IFL, ABA), and true startup founders and execs that know how to get it done in the early stages of a business. We are built to win now, and in the future.

== Risks ==
'''We have a limited operating history upon which you can evaluate our performance, and accordingly, our prospects must be considered in light of the risks that any new company encounters.'''

The Company is still in an early phase and we are just beginning to implement our business plan. There can be no assurance that we will ever operate profitably. The likelihood of our success should be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays usually encountered by early-stage companies. The Company may not be successful in attaining the objectives necessary for it to overcome these risks and uncertainties.

'''The amount of capital the Company is attempting to raise in this Offering may not be enough to sustain the Company’s current business plan.'''

In order to achieve the Company’s near and long-term goals, the Company may need to procure funds in addition to the amount raised in the Offering. There is no guarantee the Company will be able to raise such funds on acceptable terms or at all. If we are not able to raise sufficient capital in the future, we may not be able to execute our business plan, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets, which could cause an Investor to lose all or a portion of their investment.

'''We may face potential difficulties in obtaining capital.'''

We may have difficulty raising needed capital in the future as a result of a wide range of factors, as well as the inherent business risks associated with our Company and present and future market conditions. Our business currently has limited sales and future sources of revenue may not be sufficient to meet our future capital requirements. We will require additional funds to execute our business strategy and conduct our operations. If adequate funds are unavailable, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of our research, development or commercialization programs, product launches or marketing efforts, any of which may materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

'''We may implement new lines of business or offer new products and services within existing lines of business.'''

As an early-stage company, we may implement new lines of business at any time. There are substantial risks and uncertainties associated with these efforts, particularly in instances where the markets are not fully developed. In developing and marketing new lines of business and/or new products and services, we may invest significant time and resources. Initial timetables for the introduction and development of new lines of business and/or new products or services may not be achieved, and price and profitability targets may not prove feasible. We may not be successful in introducing new products and services in response to industry trends or developments in technology, or those new products may not achieve market acceptance. As a result, we could lose business, be forced to price products and services on less advantageous terms to retain or attract clients or be subject to cost increases. As a result, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected.

'''We rely on other companies to provide services for our products.'''

We depend on third party vendors to meet our contractual obligations to our customers and conduct our operations. Our ability to meet our obligations to our customers may be adversely affected if vendors do not provide the agreed-upon services in compliance with customer requirements and in a timely and cost-effective manner. Likewise, the quality of our services may be adversely impacted if companies to whom we delegate certain services do not perform to our, and our customers’, expectations. Our vendors may also be unable to quickly recover from natural disasters and other events beyond their control and may be subject to additional risks such as financial problems that limit their ability to conduct their operations. The risk of these adverse effects may be greater in circumstances where we rely on only one or two vendors for a particular service.

Specifically, we rely on Twitch, the gaming streaming service, as the exclusive live stream partner for the League’s games. Any technical problem with Twitch during one of our games could cause great harm to the business.

'''We rely on various intellectual property rights in order to operate our business.'''

The Company relies on certain intellectual property rights, particularly trade secrets, to operate its business. The Company’s intellectual property rights are unregistered and may not be sufficiently broad or otherwise may not provide us a significant competitive advantage. In addition, the steps that we have taken to maintain and protect our intellectual property may not prevent it from being challenged, invalidated, circumvented or designed-around, particularly in countries where intellectual property rights are not highly developed or protected. In some circumstances, enforcement may not be available to us because an infringer has a dominant intellectual property position or for other business reasons, or countries may require compulsory licensing of our intellectual property. Our failure to obtain or maintain intellectual property rights that convey competitive advantage, adequately protect our intellectual property or detect or prevent circumvention or unauthorized use of such property, could adversely impact our competitive position and results of operations. We also rely on nondisclosure and noncompetition agreements with employees, consultants and other parties to protect, in part, trade secrets and other proprietary rights. There can be no assurance that these agreements will adequately protect our trade secrets and other proprietary rights and will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach, that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information or that third parties will not otherwise gain access to our trade secrets or other proprietary rights. As we expand our business, protecting our intellectual property will become increasingly important. The protective steps we have taken may be inadequate to deter our competitors from using our proprietary information. In order to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, we may be required to initiate litigation against third parties, such as infringement lawsuits. Also, these third parties may assert claims against us with or without provocation. These lawsuits could be expensive, take significant time and could divert management’s attention from other business concerns. We cannot assure you that we will prevail in any of these potential suits or that the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, would be commercially valuable.

'''Indemnity provisions in various agreements potentially expose us to substantial liability for intellectual property infringement and other losses.'''

Our agreements with advertisers, advertising agencies, customers and other third parties may include indemnification provisions under which we agree to indemnify them for losses suffered or incurred as a result of claims of intellectual property infringement, damages caused by us to property or persons, or other liabilities relating to or arising from our products, services or other contractual obligations. The term of these indemnity provisions generally survives termination or expiration of the applicable agreement. Large indemnity payments would harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any type of intellectual property lawsuit, whether initiated by us or a third party, would likely be time consuming and expensive to resolve and would divert management’s time and attention.

'''The Company’s success depends on the experience and skill of its executive officers, its managers, and key employees.'''

We are dependent on our executive officers, managers and key employees. These persons may not devote their full time and attention to the matters of the Company. The loss of any or all of our executive officers, managers and key employees could harm the Company's business, financial condition, cash flow and results of operations.

'''Although dependent on certain key personnel, the Company does not have any key person life insurance policies on any such people.'''

We are dependent on certain key personnel in order to conduct our operations and execute our business plan, however, the Company has not purchased any insurance policies with respect to those individuals in the event of their death or disability. Therefore, if any of these personnel die or become disabled, the Company will not receive any compensation to assist with such person’s absence. The loss of such person could negatively affect the Company and our operations. We have no way to guarantee key personnel will stay with the Company, as many states do not enforce non-competition agreements, and therefore acquiring key man insurance will not ameliorate all of the risk of relying on key personnel.

'''In order for the Company to compete and grow, it must attract, recruit, retain and develop the necessary personnel who have the needed experience.'''

Recruiting and retaining highly qualified personnel is critical to our success. These demands may require us to hire additional personnel and will require our existing management and other personnel to develop additional expertise. We face intense competition for personnel, making recruitment time-consuming and expensive. The failure to attract and retain personnel or to develop such expertise could delay or halt the development and commercialization of our product candidates. If we experience difficulties in hiring and retaining personnel in key positions, we could suffer from delays in product development, loss of customers and sales and diversion of management resources, which could adversely affect operating results. Our consultants and advisors may be employed by third parties and may have commitments under consulting or advisory contracts with third parties that may limit their availability to us, which could further delay or disrupt our product development and growth plans.

'''We need to rapidly and successfully develop and introduce new products in a competitive, demanding and rapidly changing environment.'''

To succeed in our intensely competitive industry, we must continually improve, refresh and expand our product and service offerings to include newer features, functionality or solutions, and keep pace with changes in the industry. Shortened product life cycles due to changing customer demands and competitive pressures may impact the pace at which we must introduce new products or implement new functions or solutions. In addition, bringing new products or solutions to the market entails a costly and lengthy process, and requires us to accurately anticipate changing customer needs and trends. We must continue to respond to changing market demands and trends or our business operations may be adversely affected.

'''The development and commercialization of our products is highly competitive.'''

We face competition with respect to any products that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Our competitors include major companies worldwide. Many of our competitors have significantly greater financial, technical and human resources than we have and superior expertise in research and development and marketing approved products and thus may be better equipped than us to develop and commercialize products. These competitors also compete with us in recruiting and retaining qualified personnel and acquiring technologies. Smaller or early stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large and established companies. Accordingly, our competitors may commercialize products more rapidly or effectively than we are able to, which would adversely affect our competitive position, the likelihood that our products will achieve initial market acceptance, and our ability to generate meaningful additional revenues from our products.

'''Industry consolidation may result in increased competition, which could result in a loss of customers or a reduction in revenue.'''

Some of our competitors have made or may make acquisitions or may enter into partnerships or other strategic relationships to offer more comprehensive services than they individually had offered or achieve greater economies of scale. In addition, new entrants not currently considered to be competitors may enter our market through acquisitions, partnerships or strategic relationships. We expect these trends to continue as companies attempt to strengthen or maintain their market positions. The potential entrants may have competitive advantages over us, such as greater name recognition, longer operating histories, more varied services and larger marketing budgets, as well as greater financial, technical and other resources. The companies resulting from combinations or that expand or vertically integrate their business to include the market that we address may create more compelling service offerings and may offer greater pricing flexibility than we can or may engage in business practices that make it more difficult for us to compete effectively, including on the basis of price, sales and marketing programs, technology or service functionality. These pressures could result in a substantial loss of our customers or a reduction in our revenue.

'''Damage to our reputation could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.'''

Our reputation and the quality of our brand are critical to our business and success in existing markets and will be critical to our success as we enter new markets. Any incident that erodes consumer loyalty for our brand could significantly reduce its value and damage our business. We may be adversely affected by any negative publicity, regardless of its accuracy. Also, there has been a marked increase in the use of social media platforms and similar devices, including blogs, social media websites and other forms of internet-based communications that provide individuals with access to a broad audience of consumers and other interested persons. The availability of information on social media platforms is virtually immediate as is its impact. Information posted may be adverse to our interests or may be inaccurate, each of which may harm our performance, prospects or business. The harm may be immediate and may disseminate rapidly and broadly, without affording us an opportunity for redress or correction.

'''Our business could be negatively impacted by cyber security threats, attacks and other disruptions.'''

We may face advanced and persistent attacks on our information infrastructure where we manage and store various proprietary information and sensitive/confidential data relating to our operations. These attacks may include sophisticated malware (viruses, worms, and other malicious software programs) and phishing emails that attack our products or otherwise exploit any security vulnerabilities. These intrusions sometimes may be zero-day malware that are difficult to identify because they are not included in the signature set of commercially available antivirus scanning programs. Experienced computer programmers and hackers may be able to penetrate our network security and misappropriate or compromise our confidential information or that of our customers or other third-parties, create system disruptions, or cause shutdowns. Additionally, sophisticated software and applications that we produce or procure from third-parties may contain defects in design or manufacture, including “bugs” and other problems that could unexpectedly interfere with the operation of the information infrastructure. A disruption, infiltration or failure of our information infrastructure systems or any of our data centers as a result of software or hardware malfunctions, computer viruses, cyber-attacks, employee theft or misuse, power disruptions, natural disasters or accidents could cause breaches of data security, loss of critical data and performance delays, which in turn could adversely affect our business.

'''Security breaches of confidential customer information, in connection with our electronic processing of credit and debit card transactions, or confidential employee information may adversely affect our business.'''

Our business requires the collection, transmission and retention of personally identifiable information, in various information technology systems that we maintain and in those maintained by third parties with whom we contract to provide services. The integrity and protection of that data is critical to us. The information, security and privacy requirements imposed by governmental regulation are increasingly demanding. Our systems may not be able to satisfy these changing requirements and customer and employee expectations, or may require significant additional investments or time in order to do so. A breach in the security of our information technology systems or those of our service providers could lead to an interruption in the operation of our systems, resulting in operational inefficiencies and a loss of profits. Additionally, a significant theft, loss or misappropriation of, or access to, customers’ or other proprietary data or other breach of our information technology systems could result in fines, legal claims or proceedings.

'''The use of individually identifiable data by our business, our business associates and third parties is regulated at the state, federal and international levels.'''

The regulation of individual data is changing rapidly, and in unpredictable ways. A change in regulation could adversely affect our business, including causing our business model to no longer be viable. Costs associated with information security – such as investment in technology, the costs of compliance with consumer protection laws and costs resulting from consumer fraud – could cause our business and results of operations to suffer materially. Additionally, the success of our online operations depends upon the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks, including the use of cashless payments. The intentional or negligent actions of employees, business associates or third parties may undermine our security measures. As a result, unauthorized parties may obtain access to our data systems and misappropriate confidential data. There can be no assurance that advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments will prevent the compromise of our customer transaction processing capabilities and personal data. If any such compromise of our security or the security of information residing with our business associates or third parties were to occur, it could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, operating results and financial condition. Any compromise of our data security may materially increase the costs we incur to protect against such breaches and could subject us to additional legal risk.

'''The Company is not subject to Sarbanes-Oxley regulations and may lack the financial controls and procedures of public companies.'''

The Company may not have the internal control infrastructure that would meet the standards of a public company, including the requirements of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. As a privately-held (non-public) Company, the Company is currently not subject to the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, and its financial and disclosure controls and procedures reflect its status as a development stage, non-public company. There can be no guarantee that there are no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the quality of the Company's financial and disclosure controls and procedures. If it were necessary to implement such financial and disclosure controls and procedures, the cost to the Company of such compliance could be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

'''Changes in federal, state or local laws and government regulation could adversely impact our business.'''

The Company is subject to legislation and regulation at the federal and local levels and, in some instances, at the state level. New laws and regulations may impose new and significant disclosure obligations and other operational, marketing and compliance-related obligations and requirements, which may lead to additional costs, risks of non-compliance, and diversion of our management's time and attention from strategic initiatives. Additionally, federal, state and local legislators or regulators may change current laws or regulations which could adversely impact our business. Further, court actions or regulatory proceedings could also change our rights and obligations under applicable federal, state and local laws, which cannot be predicted. Modifications to existing requirements or imposition of new requirements or limitations could have an adverse impact on our business.

'''We operate in a highly regulated environment, and if we are found to be in violation of any of the federal, state, or local laws or regulations applicable to us, our business could suffer.'''

We are also subject to a wide range of federal, state, and local laws and regulations. The violation of these or future requirements or laws and regulations could result in administrative, civil, or criminal sanctions against us, which may include fines, a cease and desist order against the subject operations or even revocation or suspension of our license to operate the subject business. As a result, we may incur capital and operating expenditures and other costs to comply with these requirements and laws and regulations.

'''The Company could be indirectly sold at the holding company level, in which case the investors may not receive any benefit and the Company may never undergo a liquidity event.'''

The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the holding company, and some of the holding company’s shareholders are the Company’s officers and directors. If the holding company’s shareholders decide to sell their units to a new owner, the investors may never benefit from the Company being sold at a parent level. Thus, the investors’ rights and value of their investment in the Company may be limited or adversely affected.

'''Affiliates of the Company, including officers, directors and existing members of the Company, may invest in this Offering and their funds will be counted toward the Company achieving the Minimum Amount.'''

There is no restriction on affiliates of the Company, including its officers, directors and existing members, investing in the Offering. As a result, it is possible that if the Company has raised some funds, but not reached the Minimum Amount, affiliates can contribute the balance so that there will be a closing. The Minimum Amount is typically intended to be a protection for investors and gives investors confidence that other investors, along with them, are sufficiently interested in the Offering and the Company and its prospects to make an investment of at least the Minimum Amount. By permitting affiliates to invest in the offering and make up any shortfall between what non-affiliate investors have invested and the Minimum Amount, this protection is largely eliminated. Investors should be aware that no funds other than their own and those of affiliates investing along with them may be invested in this Offering.

'''Global crises, such as COVID-19, can have a significant effect on our business operations and revenue projections.'''

The Company’s revenue was adversely affected related to the COVID-19 crisis. Conditions have eased. If another significant outbreak of COVID-19 or another contagious disease were to occur, we may lose a significant portion of our revenue.

In addition, a significant outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the United States where we principally operate, resulting in an economic downturn that could reduce the demand for our products and services and impair our business prospects, including as a result of being unable to raise additional capital on acceptable terms to us, if at all.

'''The Company may not be in compliance with corporate registration requirements.'''

The Company’s principal place of business is located in the State of California. Although the Company’s parent company is located and qualified to conduct business in California, the Company is not currently qualified to conduct business in California. The Company believes it has valid reasons for not registering in California. The Company could be subject to fines, penalties or other administrative actions for failure to qualify in states that it operates in.

'''State and federal securities laws are complex, and the Company could potentially be found to have not complied with all relevant state and federal securities law in prior offerings of securities.'''

The Company has conducted previous offerings of securities and may not have complied with all relevant state and federal securities laws. In particular, the Company sold tokens and NFTs in 2022 which could potentially be considered sales of unregistered securities. Additionally, the Company’s parent company previously attempted to issue an initial coin offering which could potentially be deemed an attempted sale of unregistered securities. If a court or regulatory body with the required jurisdiction ever concluded that the Company may have violated state or federal securities laws, any such violation could result in the Company being required to offer rescission rights to investors in such offering. If such investors exercised their rescission rights, the Company would have to pay to such investors an amount of funds equal to the purchase price paid by such investors plus interest from the date of any such purchase. No assurances can be given the Company will, if it is required to offer such investors a rescission right, have sufficient funds to pay the prior investors the amounts required or that proceeds from this Offering would not be used to pay such amounts.

In addition, if the Company violated federal or state securities laws in connection with a prior offering and/or sale of its securities, federal or state regulators could bring an enforcement, regulatory and/or other legal action against the Company which, among other things, could result in the Company having to pay substantial fines and be prohibited from selling securities in the future.

'''The Company could potentially be found to have not complied with securities law in connection with this Offering related to "Testing the Waters".'''

Prior to filing this Form C, the Company engaged in “testing the waters” permitted under Regulation Crowdfunding (17 CFR 227.206), which allows issuers to communicate to determine whether there is interest in the Offering. All communication sent is deemed to be an offer of securities for purposes of the antifraud provisions of federal securities laws. Any Investor who expressed interest prior to the date of this Offering should read this Form C thoroughly and rely only on the information provided herein and not on any statement made prior to the Offering. The communications sent to Investors prior to the Offering are attached as Exhibit E. Some of these communications may not have included proper disclaimers required for "testing the waters".

'''The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not pass upon the merits of the Securities or the terms of the Offering, nor does it pass upon the accuracy or completeness of any Offering document or literature.'''

You should not rely on the fact that our Form C is accessible through the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s EDGAR filing system as an approval, endorsement or guarantee of compliance as it relates to this Offering. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has not reviewed this Form C, nor any document or literature related to this Offering.

'''Neither the Offering nor the Securities have been registered under federal or state securities laws.'''

No governmental agency has reviewed or passed upon this Offering or the Securities. Neither the Offering nor the Securities have been registered under federal or state securities laws. Investors will not receive any of the benefits available in registered offerings, which may include access to quarterly and annual financial statements that have been audited by an independent accounting firm. Investors must therefore assess the adequacy of disclosure and the fairness of the terms of this Offering based on the information provided in this Form C and the accompanying exhibits.

'''The Company's management may have broad discretion in how the Company uses the net proceeds of the Offering.'''

Unless the Company has agreed to a specific use of the proceeds from the Offering, the Company’s management will have considerable discretion over the use of proceeds from the Offering. You may not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately.

'''The Company has the right to limit individual Investor commitment amounts based on the Company’s determination of an Investor’s sophistication.'''

The Company may prevent any Investor from committing more than a certain amount in this Offering based on the Company’s determination of the Investor’s sophistication and ability to assume the risk of the investment. This means that your desired investment amount may be limited or lowered based solely on the Company’s determination and not in line with relevant investment limits set forth by the Regulation CF rules. This also means that other Investors may receive larger allocations of the Offering based solely on the Company’s determination.

'''The Company has the right to extend the Offering Deadline.'''

The Company may extend the Offering Deadline beyond what is currently stated herein. This means that your investment may continue to be held in escrow while the Company attempts to raise the Target Offering Amount even after the Offering Deadline stated herein is reached. While you have the right to cancel your investment in the event the Company extends the Offering Deadline, if you choose to reconfirm your investment, your investment will not be accruing interest during this time and will simply be held until such time as the new Offering Deadline is reached without the Company receiving the Target Offering Amount, at which time it will be returned to you without interest or deduction, or the Company receives the Target Offering Amount, at which time it will be released to the Company to be used as set forth herein. Upon or shortly after the release of such funds to the Company, the Securities will be issued and distributed to you.

'''The Company may also end the Offering early.'''

If the Target Offering Amount is met after 21 calendar days, but before the Offering Deadline, the Company can end the Offering by providing notice to Investors at least 5 business days prior to the end of the Offering. This means your failure to participate in the Offering in a timely manner, may prevent you from being able to invest in this Offering – it also means the Company may limit the amount of capital it can raise during the Offering by ending the Offering early.

'''The Company has the right to conduct multiple closings during the Offering.'''

If the Company meets certain terms and conditions, an intermediate close of the Offering can occur, which will allow the Company to draw down on seventy percent (70%) of the proceeds committed and captured in the Offering during the relevant period. The Company may choose to continue the Offering thereafter. Investors should be mindful that this means they can make multiple investment commitments in the Offering, which may be subject to different cancellation rights. For example, if an intermediate close occurs and later a material change occurs as the Offering continues, Investors whose investment commitments were previously closed upon will not have the right to re-confirm their investment as it will be deemed to have been completed prior to the material change.

'''The Securities will not be freely tradable under the Securities Act until one year from the initial purchase date. Although the Securities may be tradable under federal securities law, state securities regulations may apply, and each Investor should consult with their attorney.'''

You should be aware of the long-term nature of this investment. There is not now and likely will not ever be a public market for the Securities. Because the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state or foreign jurisdiction, the Securities have transfer restrictions and cannot be resold in the United States except pursuant to Rule 501 of Regulation CF. It is not currently contemplated that registration under the Securities Act or other securities laws will be effected. Limitations on the transfer of the Securities may also adversely affect the price that you might be able to obtain for the Securities in a private sale. Investors should be aware of the long-term nature of their investment in the Company. Each Investor in this Offering will be required to represent that they are purchasing the Securities for their own account, for investment purposes and not with a view to resale or distribution thereof.

'''Investors will not have voting rights, even upon conversion of the Securities and will grant a third-party nominee broad power and authority to act on their behalf.'''

In connection with investing in this Offering to purchase a Crowd SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) investors will designate Republic Investment Services LLC (f/k/a NextSeed Services, LLC) (“Nominee”) to act on their behalf as agent and proxy in all respects. The Nominee will be entitled, among other things, to exercise any voting rights (if any) conferred upon the holder of a Crowd SAFE or any securities acquired upon their conversion, to execute on behalf of an investor all transaction documents related to the transaction or other corporate event causing the conversion of the Crowd SAFE, and as part of the conversion process the Nominee has the authority to open an account in the name of a qualified custodian, of the Nominee’s sole discretion, to take custody of any securities acquired upon conversion of the Crowd SAFE. Thus, by participating in the Offering, investors will grant broad discretion to a third party (the Nominee and its agents) to take various actions on their behalf, and investors will essentially not be able to vote upon matters related to the governance and affairs of the Company nor take or effect actions that might otherwise be available to holders of the Crowd SAFE and any securities acquired upon their conversion. Investors should not participate in the Offering unless he, she or it is willing to waive or assign certain rights that might otherwise be afforded to a holder of the Crowd SAFE to the Nominee and grant broad authority to the Nominee to take certain actions on behalf of the investor, including changing title to the Security.

'''Investors will not become equity holders until the Company decides to convert the Securities into “Capital Interests” (the type of equity securities issuable upon conversion of the Securities) or until there is a change of control or sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets.'''

Investors will not have an ownership claim to the Company or to any of its assets or revenues for an indefinite amount of time and depending on when and how the Securities are converted, the Investors may never become equity holders of the Company. Investors will not become equity holders of the Company unless the Company receives a future round of financing great enough to trigger a conversion and the Company elects to convert the Securities into Capital Interests. The Company is under no obligation to convert the Securities into Capital Interests. In certain instances, such as a sale of the Company or substantially all of its assets, an initial public offering or a dissolution or bankruptcy, the Investors may only have a right to receive cash, to the extent available, rather than equity in the Company. Further, the Investor may never become an equity holder, merely a beneficial owner of an equity interest, should the Company or the Nominee decide to move the Crowd SAFE or the securities issuable thereto into a custodial relationship.'

'''Investors will not have voting rights, even upon conversion of the Securities into Capital Interests.'''

Investors will not have the right to vote upon matters of the Company even if and when their Securities are converted into Capital Interests (the occurrence of which cannot be guaranteed). Upon such conversion, the Capital Interests will have no voting rights and, in circumstances where a statutory right to vote is provided by state law, the Capital Interest Security holders or the party holding the Capital Interests on behalf of the Investors are required to enter into a proxy agreement with its designee to vote their Capital Interests with the majority of the holder(s) of the securities issued in the round of equity financing that triggered the conversion right. For example, if the Securities are converted in connection with an offering of Series A Preferred Interests, Investors would directly or beneficially receive Capital Interests in the form of units of Series A Preferred Interests and such units would be required to be subject to a proxy that allows a designee to vote their units of Series A Preferred Interests consistent with the majority of the Series A Preferred Interests holders. Thus, Investors will essentially never be able to vote upon any matters of the Company unless otherwise provided for by the Company.

'''Investors will not be entitled to any inspection or information rights other than those required by law.'''

Investors will not have the right to inspect the books and records of the Company or to receive financial or other information from the Company, other than as required by law. Other security holders of the Company may have such rights. Regulation CF requires only the provision of an annual report on Form C and no additional information. Additionally, there are numerous methods by which the Company can terminate annual report obligations, resulting in no information rights, contractual, statutory or otherwise, owed to Investors. This lack of information could put Investors at a disadvantage in general and with respect to other security holders, including certain security holders who have rights to periodic financial statements and updates from the Company such as quarterly unaudited financials, annual projections and budgets, and monthly progress reports, among other things.

'''Investors will be unable to declare the Security in “default” and demand repayment.'''

Unlike convertible notes and some other securities, the Securities do not have any “default” provisions upon which Investors will be able to demand repayment of their investment. The Company has ultimate discretion as to whether or not to convert the Securities upon a future equity financing and Investors have no right to demand such conversion. Only in limited circumstances, such as a liquidity event, may Investors demand payment and even then, such payments will be limited to the amount of cash available to the Company.

'''The Company may never elect to convert the Securities or undergo a liquidity event and Investors may have to hold the Securities indefinitely.'''

The Company may never conduct a future equity financing or elect to convert the Securities if such future equity financing does occur. In addition, the Company may never undergo a liquidity event such as a sale of the Company or an initial public offering. If neither the conversion of the Securities nor a liquidity event occurs, Investors could be left holding the Securities in perpetuity. The Securities have numerous transfer restrictions and will likely be highly illiquid, with no secondary market on which to sell them. The Securities are not equity interests, have no ownership rights, have no rights to the Company’s assets or profits and have no voting rights or ability to direct the Company or its actions.

'''Equity securities acquired upon conversion of the Securities may be significantly diluted as a consequence of subsequent equity financings.'''

The Company’s equity securities will be subject to dilution. The Company may issue additional equity to employees and third-party financing sources in amounts that are uncertain at this time, and as a consequence holders of equity securities resulting from the conversion of the Securities will be subject to dilution in an unpredictable amount. Such dilution may reduce the Investor’s control and economic interests in the Company.

The amount of additional financing needed by the Company will depend upon several contingencies not foreseen at the time of this Offering. Generally, additional financing (whether in the form of loans or the issuance of other securities) will be intended to provide the Company with enough capital to reach the next major corporate milestone. If the funds received in any additional financing are not sufficient to meet the Company’s needs, the Company may have to raise additional capital at a price unfavorable to their existing investors, including the holders of the Securities. The availability of capital is at least partially a function of capital market conditions that are beyond the control of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to accurately predict the future capital requirements necessary for success or that additional funds will be available from any source. Failure to obtain financing on favorable terms could dilute or otherwise severely impair the value of the Securities.

'''Equity securities issued upon conversion of the Securities may be substantially different from other equity securities offered or issued by the Company at the time of conversion.'''

In the event the Company decides to exercise the conversion right, the Company will convert the Securities into equity securities that are materially different from the equity securities being issued to new investors at the time of conversion in many ways, including, but not limited to, liquidation preferences, dividend rights, or anti-dilution protection. Additionally, any equity securities issued at the First Equity Financing Price (as defined in the Crowd SAFE agreement) shall have only such preferences, rights, and protections in proportion to the First Equity Financing Price and not in proportion to the price per unit paid by new investors receiving the equity securities. Upon conversion of the Securities, the Company may not provide the holders of such Securities with the same rights, preferences, protections, and other benefits or privileges provided to other investors of the Company.

The foregoing paragraph is only a summary of a portion of the conversion feature of the Securities; it is not intended to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Crowd SAFE agreement, which is attached as Exhibit C.

'''The Default Price (as defined in the Crowd SAFE agreement) is not necessarily related to the valuation of the Company.'''

The Company has set a Default Price for which the Securities will convert at maturity (unless converted earlier). The Default Price is not necessarily related to the valuation of the Company. The Company arrived at the Default Price using the total number of authorized units of the Company as of the date of this Offering and based such figure on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, prior offerings of the Company’s Capital Interests, demand for such Securities, and the current and future financial performance of the Company. There is no guarantee that the Default Price will approximate the valuation of the Company at the time of conversion.

'''There is no present market for the Securities and we have arbitrarily set the price.'''

The Offering price was not established in a competitive market. We have arbitrarily set the price of the Securities with reference to the general status of the securities market and other relevant factors. The Offering price for the Securities should not be considered an indication of the actual value of the Securities and is not based on our asset value, net worth, revenues or other established criteria of value. We cannot guarantee that the Securities can be resold at the Offering price or at any other price.

'''In the event of the dissolution or bankruptcy of the Company, Investors will not be treated as debt holders and therefore are unlikely to recover any proceeds.'''

In the event of the dissolution or bankruptcy of the Company, the holders of the Securities that have not been converted will be entitled to distributions as described in the Securities. This means that such holders will only receive distributions once all of the creditors and more senior security holders, including any holders of preferred interests, have been paid in full. Neither holders of the Securities nor holders of Capital Interests can be guaranteed any proceeds in the event of the dissolution or bankruptcy of the Company.

'''While the Securities provide mechanisms whereby holders of the Securities would be entitled to a return of their purchase amount upon the occurrence of certain events, if the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand, this obligation may not be fulfilled.'''

Upon the occurrence of certain events, as provided in the Securities, holders of the Securities may be entitled to a return of the principal amount invested. Despite the contractual provisions in the Securities, this right cannot be guaranteed if the Company does not have sufficient liquid assets on hand. Therefore, potential Investors should not assume a guaranteed return of their investment amount.

'''There is no guarantee of a return on an Investor’s investment.'''

There is no assurance that an Investor will realize a return on their investment or that they will not lose their entire investment. For this reason, each Investor should read this Form C and all exhibits carefully and should consult with their attorney and business advisor prior to making any investment decision.
