Terms Of Usage

WOWS Global Pte. Ltd., having its registered office at 68 Circular Road #02-01,049422, Singapore (“WOWS”, us, we, etc.) publish and operate a software platform, marketplace, and service (together, the “Platform”), to facilitate interactions between new private businesses. The Platform is available on the website wowsglobal.com (the “Site”).

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between WOWS on the one hand, and the person (“you”) who accesses, browses, or in any way uses the Platform, the Site, any other related application, any services thereon, or other related services offered by WOWS (all together, WOWS’ “Services”).

By visiting the Site, using the Services, signing an agreement that incorporates these Terms, registering as a “Site Member”, or otherwise indicating or manifesting your assent, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, agreed to enter into, and will abide by these Terms, WOWS’ Privacy Policy as described below, and all notices, rules, policies, and procedures that we may publish on the Site.

If you use the Services as an approved proxy for another person (e.g. your work supervisor or a client) and/or on behalf of one or more business entities you or they own, manage, or advise (such as funds or holding companies), then you agree to these Terms on your own behalf and on behalf of those individuals and entities (to which references to “you” also apply), and may only use the Services if you have the authority from each such individual and entity to do so. If you set up multiple accounts, or multiple entity listings within an account, you are making a separate agreement between each of them and WOWS.

If at any time you do not agree with these Terms or the Privacy Policy, do not use or continue to use the Site or the Services.

It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically for updates / changes. We will notify you of any material updates / changes from time to time. Your continued use of the Platform following the posting of changes will mean that you accept and agree to the revisions. As long as you comply with these Terms, We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited privilege to enter and use the Platform.

Description of Transactions

1.1. WOWS provides a platform through which businesses and registered users can interact with each other for the purposes of evaluating a potential business relationship. We enable users of the platform to register as Investors who contemplate gaining investment exposure to private market securities and Shareholders who own Shares, either directly or by virtue of holding instruments relating to shares such as options, futures contracts, or interests in holding companies that own Shares. Through this Platform, we also provide other features and services related to ESOP and cap table management software for companies, its shareholders and employees.

1.2. All who access our Site, user our Services, and/or agree to these Terms are considered “Members”. WOWS may further establish, including without limitation “know your customer”, anti-money laundering, and other diligence checks, and self-certification of accredited investor or qualified purchaser status.

Securities Products

2.1. Any securities mentioned on the Site or as part of the Services are only suitable for prospective investors who are familiar with and willing to accept the high risks associated with private investments, including the risk of complete loss of the investment. Securities sold through private placements are not publicly traded and, therefore, are illiquid unless and until registered with the SGX-ST, if at all. Securities will be subject to restrictions on resale and transfer, including holding period requirements. Investing in private placements requires high tolerance for risk, low need for liquidity, and willingness to make long-term commitments. Investors must be able to afford to lose their entire investment. Investment opportunities on the Platform are not SDIC insured, may lose value, and not guaranteed by any bank or institution.

2.2. Any securities mentioned have not been registered under the Futures and Securities Act of Singapore. WOWS does not represent that any governmental agency has necessarily reviewed the Site, or has passed upon either the adequacy of the disclosure contained therein or the fairness of the terms of any Transaction. Further, companies whose Shares are described on the Site or as part of the Services may not have approved and may not know about the Site, Services, and various Transactions.

2.3. The exemptions relied upon for the Transactions are significantly dependent upon the accuracy of representations made by Investors and Shareholders, and potentially the issuers of the applicable securities, each as may be reflected in applicable Transaction Documents. In the event that any such representations prove to be untrue, the registration exemptions might not be available and substantial liability could result. These risks are non-exhaustive and are intended to highlight certain risks associated with investing in securities that are not registered with the SGX-ST. WE STRONGLY ADVISE ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES WHO ELECT TO PARTICIPATE IN TRANSACTIONS TO CONSULT LEGAL, TAX, AND FINANCIAL PROFESSIONALS BEFOREHAND, CAREFULLY REVIEW ALL THE SPECIFIC RISK DISCLOSURES PROVIDED AS PART OF ANY TRANSACTION MATERIALS AND REQUEST ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
