among others, (i) the Token Issuer’s investment objectives, goals and criteria, (ii) acquisition policies, (iii) property
characteristics, (iv) capital needs and financing plans and (v) the policies and procedures in place at the Token Issuer.
Forward-looking statements, which involve assumptions and describe future plans, strategies, and expectations, are
generally identifiable by use of the words "may," "will," "should," "expect," "anticipate," "approximate," "estimate,"
"believe," "intend," "plan," or "project," or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable

actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from the future results, performance, or
achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. These statements may be found in this
Whitepaper. Actual events or results may differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements as a
result of various factors, including, without limitation, the risks outlined under "Risk Factors" and matters described in
this Whitepaper generally. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the events anticipated in the forward-looking
statements may or may not occur.
Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions regarding the Token Issuer’s business,
the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they
are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. The Token
Issuer’s actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Prospective
investors are cautioned that they should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as statements of historical
fact or as guarantees or assurances of future performance. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements include regional, national or global political, economic,
business, competitive, market and regulatory conditions such as the following (which list is not exhaustive):
- Our ability to grow Property Coin (PCX) into a $1 billion property and loan portfolio that revitalizes
neighborhoods, promotes affordable housing and delivers profits and value appreciation to our investors.
- our sourcing, identification and selection of prospective real estate investments;
- our ability to consummate attractive property acquisitions due to our limited resources and the significant
competition for investment opportunities;
- our ability to appropriately forecast and model returns on real estate investments and loans;
- changes in real estate prices and property valuations;
- the effect of economic conditions on the real estate markets;
- competition for properties;
- ability to manage development, construction and operational risks;
- environmental risks;
- ability to identify liabilities associated with acquired properties prior to their acquisition;
- ability to acquire or renew permits and approvals;
- our dependence on, and conflicts of interest with, Aperture and their respective affiliates; our issuance of
Property Coins or incurrence of debt to complete property acquisitions;
- potential future affiliations of the affiliates of Aperture with other ventures or competing businesses;
- our ability to obtain additional financing to acquire attractive properties;
- the lack of a market for Property Coins;
- our being deemed an investment fund under the laws and regulations of our jurisdiction of formation.
Any forward-looking statement made in this Whitepaper speaks only as of the date on which it was make it, and is
expressly qualified in its entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. Factors or events that could cause actual
results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all of them. The Token Issuer does not
undertake and has no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information,
future developments or otherwise.
