permanent loans nor do we currently have any such financing in place. Moreover, we may not ever raise enough capital to implement our
intended business operations nor construction projects.

Our company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is not a blank check company and do not consider ourselves to be a blank check company as we:
(1). Have a specific business plan. We have provided a detail plan for the next twelve (12) months throughout our Prospectus.
(2). Have no intention of entering into a reverse merger with any entity in an unrelated industry in the future.
Since our inception in 2015 up to present June 2020, our company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC has not generated any revenues and have incurred a net loss of $0. We anticipate the commencement of generating revenues in the next twelve months. The capital raised in this offering has been budgeted to cover the costs associated with beginning to operate our company, marketing expense, possible land acquisitions, and design/development/build related costs.
9
We intend on using the majority of the proceeds from this Offering for designing, developing and building small, single family rental homes, multifamily apartments, acquiring land, concept retail stores and restaurants, and using a very large portion of funds as leverage and down-payment towards Gilmore Tower, a planned $200,000,000 (if $20,000,000 is raised, then to borrow the rest as debt), for a 50 story, mixed use development in downtown Atlanta, Georgia in an Opportunity Zone that will consist of 270 apartments and condominiums, a 150 store plus shopping center, open to public for leasing, plus, our new, concept 85 stores, restaurants, and businesses, totaling over 185 retailers and restaurants, a 100 room, all-suite boutique hotel with Rolls Royce services, an indoor ice skating rink, movie theater, small performing arts center, and grocery store and pharmacy. All 185 businesses, retailers, restaurants, and other national brand tenants will be apart and housed in Gilmore Tower, a future project once funding is raised. However, when the first $15,000 is raised minus operations and management costs, the company will begin immediately acquiring land and build from 1-to-4, 5-to-50 multifamily apartments (affordable, market rate, co living, shared, student and workforce housing), retail stores such as Can You Spare A Dollar? Chain of $1.00 Stores, Gilmore Apartment Homes, Gilmore Plaza, etc., under the umbrella of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC.
However, closing, and other related design and development costs such as title insurance, professional, fees and taxes will likely require cash. Our company do not have the ability to quantify any of the expenses as they will all depend on size of deal, price, construction, development costs, location and place versus procuring new financing, due diligence performed (such as appraisal, environmental, property condition reports (land), legal and accounting, etc. There is no way to predict or otherwise detail expenses. Our firm will not buy properties nor invest in properties or companies. We will only design and build from the ground up, new construction only. This includes all of our products, goods and services, including single family homes, apartments, condominiums, shopping centers, retail stores and restaurants, and launch our private label Visa and MasterCard, as part of our real-estate related assets and services by our company.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC (the Company) will engage in the following activities:
(1)Acquire land, old and abandon residential and commercial buildings, tear down and design, develop and build single family homes, multifamily apartments, condominiums, and new retail and restaurants concepts, shopping centers, hotels, a television station, radio stations, magazines, chain of $1.00 stores, and commercial properties that have the potential to be or cash flow positive, meaning properties that have a positive monthly income after all expenses (mortgages, loans, operating expenses, taxes) and maintenance reserves are paid. In order to determine if our developments are cash flow positive, our Manager will conduct proforma, sources and uses, pre-development and development costs, etc., in reviewing the total gross rent, income and/or receipts from our development properties and subtract any and all expenses including utilities, taxes, maintenance, and other reserve expenses. If this number is a positive number, the Company will deem the property cash flow positive. Depending on how positive the cash flow will be juxtaposed the Proforma, it will determine whether the management will build such properties or not, on behalf of the Company: there must be a comfortable cashflow potential which our Manager Gilmore must be comfortable with, in order to build and develop.
Note: Our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with the aforementioned and its intended business operations nor borrowing be guaranteed and approved.
10
(2)As a proptech, fintech and consumertech company incorporating real estate, technology and financial services, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans
LLC will allow outside investments into the company and/or project(s) if our Manager sees fit within the confines of the market, marketplace and economy so long as those direct investments or venture capital injections are real estate, technology and financial services related and within the investment objectives of the Company. However, in the first 12 months of the Company as a Regulation A, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC will be a direct issuer and/or may register on an approved crowdfunding site portal to raise funds, such as StartEngine, for example, if our company is approved to raise on the site. There is no approval or agreement in place. This is just an example since our company will be
undercapitalized in the beginning, seeking accredited and nonaccredited investors.
The Company will only use the proceeds in this Offering to design, develop and build single family, multifamily, condominiums, and commercial properties such as Gilmore Tower and other mixed use underpinnings etc., as noted throughout this Prospectus.
Note: (Amended) (Disclosure): Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations as described below. Moreover, our Company may never be approved for borrowing, for it is not guaranteed nor is it currently in place.
Besides equity, in all cases, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will inquire debt on our properties. This is because we will not acquire or invest in any other residential, commercial, buildings, individuals, or companies. We will only design and build our own residential, commercial, and business startups underpinnings. In doing so, the company will ensure that such development fits with the Investment Development Policies and Business Plan of the Company. We also intend to leverage our capital (money raised) to commence such developments up to 20% and borrow 80% of the costs via debt or loan. This depends on capital raised. For example, once we raise, lets say $200,000 to $400,000 (10% to 20%), we will commence a loan to finance a $2,000,000 project such as small apartment buildings, retail and restaurants in a neighborhood new shopping center, small condominiums, or affordable, shared, co living and workforce housing in a $2,000,000 development. With the maximum amount of $50,000,000 which we can raise, (but not guaranteed), we do plan on making an impact and creating jobs plus retaining a high yield back to our shareholders, subscribers, investors and/or members in our Regulation A, Tier 2 Offering. As noted, Investors should read all the RISKS involved in this Offering and be advised that there is no guarantee of returns and investors may lose their investment.
ORDER OF PRIORITY OF SUCH PURPOSES
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC, as an emerging growth proptech and fintech company encompassing real estate, technology and financial services licensed as a Georgia domestic limited liability company (LLC) have set forth ambitious projects within the Company which we
will implement (pending on capital raised, which we may never be in a position to raise enough). As such, our business benchmark plan is the design, development, construction and operations of real estate and real estate underpinnings, foremost. Therefore, the below outlines 17 CFR 229.504 (Item 504) Use of Proceeds encompassing 1 to Item 504 of Regulation S K pursuant to Item 501 of Regulation S K (229.501).
Disclosure: Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations.
Termination Date of Offering: 12 months, June 1, 2021
Date By Which Minimum Amount Must Be Reached: 6 months, June 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020
11
Gilmore Homes - Gilmore Loans, LLC through this Offering hopes to raise from $15,000 (minimum) to $50,000,000 (maximum) per FY.
The plans set forth in this Offering may never raise the maximum in order to fully execute our business plan. When this is the case, our Company will implement smaller development and construction versions of the project that can still be built, but on a smaller scale, due to the fact that our plans may be substantially less than the maximum proceeds are obtained. If our Company Offering raises at least $15,000 to $1,000,000 out of the maximum of $50,000,000 we will seek, we shall consider that a success going from zero assets to $15,000 to $1,000,000 in assets. The cash and equity raise will determine the order of priority of our real estate projects and businesses implementation. For starters, our Company hopes to implement the rental of single family homes whether 1 home to 1,000 homes, followed by the launch of our chain of $1.00 stores in Atlanta with plans to scale around the United States, then Gilmore Tower, etc.
In case of not reaching the necessary capital to implement such, our Company will then build single entities of such (based on capital) as an example, one physical $1.00 store instead of a chain of dollars stores, one single family home instead of massive single family homes, a 4 unit apartment building instead of massive apartment buildings, all due to, if Offering is substantially less than the maximum proceeds are obtained. Investors should realize that our Company obtaining $50,000,000 in cash via selling equity stakes in our business may never come to fruition. The success of our projects, businesses and the implementation of our business plan depends largely on a successful capital raise. As such, many of our projects may be small in nature instead of massive buildings, all due to capital. Investors should be aware of the risks, and these explanations set forth, explains our plans, if our capital raise is substantially less than the maximum proceeds are obtained.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC ORDER OF PRIORITY of Such Purposes are as follows:
(1) Our first priority will be the design, development, and construction of single family homes: GILMORE HOMES. The company will start off building single family homes as rentals. The objective is to acquire and purchase single family lots or commercial lots in order to commence housing. After due diligence, acquiring the rights and ownership to the land, our company will hire an architect to design our branded (Gilmore) homes.
The aesthetic for the homes is to feature small 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room, dining room and kitchen combo, possibly one story or two stories, detached dwellings, all electric with no garages, only a driveway for 2 cars or what the City of Atlanta allows. Plans call for scaling the homes, in Atlanta and around the United States, building rentals and for sale housing. The homes will aim for 700 to 1,000 square feet, with rent not to exceed $1,000 per month. Our for sale homes will be in the $99,900 range with the goal of 3.5% down and 3.0% interests, over a 15 year mortgage term. Rent will average $795 per month for a brand new Gilmore Home, once our Offering is financial capitalized, which may never happen.
PLANNED CAPITAL RAISE: Our goal is to raise at least $15,000 (amended) to $1,000,000 or more to start purchasing lands and building 1 to 10 homes. Note: As stated throughout the offering, our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations. The more capital we can raise, the more homes we can build. Moreover, our company currently has no financing in place and there is no guarantee that we will receive financing.
(2) Can You Spare a Dollar? Chain of $1.00 stores will be our second real estate underpinning. Our dollar stores will compete against Dollar Tree primarily because of our $1.00 only merchandise. Other players in the landscape are Dollar General and Family Dollar. What will make Can You Spare A Dollar? $1.00 Stores unique is that we will be stand-alone stores. Our competitor Dollar Tree stores are mostly in shopping centers.
12
Moreover, we will feature SPARE DOLLAR $1.00 Café, selling various hot foods, and feature fresh fruits and vegetables. As a stand alone retailer, we expect to scale from the Atlanta area market to markets all over the United States.
PLANNED CAPITAL RAISE: Our goal is to raise at least $295,000 to $2,000,000 or more to start purchasing commercial lands and building the stand alone dollar stores. Note: As stated, our Company many never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations. The more capital we can raise, the more stores we can build. Moreover, our company currently has no financing in place and there is no guarantee that we will receive financing.
(3) GILMORE TOWER will not only be our most ambitious plan and offering, but our next investment development scope. As planned, Gilmore Tower will be a 50-story (plus or minus), $200,000,000 (projected total costs), upscale high-rise mixed use development that will feature over 185 stores and restaurants (plus or minus pending on third-party landlord retail brokerage, who will be responsible for preleasing retail and restaurant tenants in the shopping center and LOI). Note, 85 of the stores and restaurants will be owned by Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC (please see within this Offering: Subsidiaries, which showcases / list the stores, etc.).
In addition to the shopping center, the proposed development will include 270 multifamily apartments and condominiums, the 185 stores and restaurants (or minus) (as stated), a 100 room, all suite hotel with Rolls Royce services, office spaces, movie theater, indoor ice skating rink in the shopping center, grocery and pharmacy, and a 1,000 performing arts center venue, all adjacent.
PLANNED CAPITAL RAISE: Our Company goal is to raise from $20,000,000 (10 percent) to $40,000,000 (20 percent) in order to leverage a $200,000,000 construction to permanent loan for land, soft and hard costs, construction, and opening operations. Our Offering allows us to raise up to $50,000,000 per year as a Regulation A, Tier 2. As noted, our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations. The reason for this major development is to put all our companies, retail stores and restaurants, apartments, condominiums, hotel, shopping center and other ventures we will undertake under one roof. Our Business Plan calls for scaling Gilmore Tower in Atlanta and around the United States. Please also note that if our plans are substantially less than the maximum proceeds are obtained, we will build Gilmore Tower on a smaller scale, again pending capital raise. For example, if we raise $10,000,000, we might be able to build a $100,000,000 tower downsizing the development. So, instead of a 100 room hotel, we might build a 50 room hotel, and instead of 270 apartments and condominiums, we might build 70 apartments and condominiums. Additionally, there are many financial sources that exist in order to bring this project to fruition, which includes equity, selling company shares and securities, angel investing, venture investing, private equity, venture capital, revenue bonds, etc. When our Company raises at least $1,000,000, we will seek out a third party capital market expert who can help us issue revenue bonds. The $1,000,000 and more will then go to underwriting a $200,000,000 Revenue Bond via capital markets, so that Gilmore Tower can be built. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC as a company will not wait until we raise $20,000,000 (which may never happen). Our Company will start the process immediately to begin setting in motion the costs necessary to implement Gilmore Tower.
Note: When we raise at least $1,000,000, this plan (number 3) might supersedes plan numbers 1 and 2 as outlined above and in this Order of Priority. The goal is to start the fundraising process for Gilmore Tower immediately.
Further Note: Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations. Moreover, our Company currently has no financing in place and there is no guarantee that we will ever receive financing.
13
(4) Gilmore Multifamily Apartments and Condominiums are the next priority of such purposes appertaining to our order of development. The goal is to raise from $15,000 to $5,000,000 to implement such. Even if we raise at least $15,000 in equity, our Company might be able to borrow from $150,000 to $1,000,000 pending on banking or lending sources criteria. Therewith, our Company will start designing, developing, and building small units of 1 to 4 or 4 to 8, etc., pending successful capital raise, but no guarantee.
(5) Hotels, Shopping Centers, New Concept Stores and Restaurants will be the next priority of such purposes appertaining to our next order of development. The goal is to raise, again, from $15,000 to $50,000,000. Note: Our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business purposes. Pending on amount raise, however, our Company will start purchasing and acquiring land to start building on a small scale, some of our portfolio and umbrella companies. If Gilmore Tower is successful, all our beginning developments in Atlanta will be under one roof such as dollar store, apartments and condominiums, hotels, new retail and restaurants concepts, office spaces, media, financial and technology products, etc. Investors should be advised that in any cases of the order of priority, risks are involved as it relates to real estate and real estate related underpinnings.

and 2018 which was reflected in the previous balance sheet, but could not be counted after final audit due to separate business account.
Please see our DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS on page 44. Our Company believes we will need at least $5,000 to provide working capital and $10,000 for ongoing professional fees for the next 6 to 12 months, (apart of funds taking from the capital raise).
As of the date of this Offering, the principal Manager (Michael Gilmore) will be devoting 40 hours, full time to the company going forward.

If Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is sufficiently financed, those hired (in the future) must be able to commit at least part time of 25 hours or full time of 40 hrs. Realistic management pay and personnel are a key part of the Company. If the Company sells all the securities offered, the majority of the proceeds of the offering will be spent for ongoing operational and development costs. Investors should realize that following this Offering, we will be required to raise additional capital to cover the costs associated with our plans of operations.

EXEMPTIONS UNDER JUMPSTART OUR BUSINESS STARTUP ACT
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is an emerging growth company. An emerging growth company is one that had total annual gross revenues of less than $1,000,000,000 (as such amount is indexed for inflation every 5 years by the Commission to reflect the change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, setting the threshold to the nearest 1,000,000) during its most recently completed fiscal year. Our company would lose its emerging growth status if we were to exceed $1,000,000,000 in gross revenues. As a proptech and fintech emerging growth company, we are not sure if this will ever take place, as a minority owned company, regulation and crowdfund.
Because we are an emerging growth company, we have the exemption from Section 404 (b) of Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and Section 14A(a) and (b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, under Section 404(b).

RISK FACTORS
Note: (Amended) Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations. Moreover, financing is currently not in place and there is no guarantee that our Company may ever receive financing.
Investors in Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC, as a proptech, fintech and consumertech (the Company), should be particularly aware of the inherent risks associated with our business. As of the date of this filing and its amendments, our management is aware of the following material risks.
General Risks Related to Our Business
I. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is an emerging growth company founded in 2015 and have recently commenced operations in 2018 as a
LLC, which makes an evaluation of us extremely difficult. At this stage of our business operations, even with our good faith efforts, we may never
become profitable or generate any significant amount of revenues. Thus, potential investors have a high probability of losing their investment. Our
company will strive and work hard to ensure that investors investments in our Company will only conduct business in developments that we deem
profitable such as single family homes, apartments, condominiums, mixed use development, shopping centers, hotels, etc., but no guarantee,
which also involves a high degree of risk in our holding company as a real estate entity and business.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC was organized in July 2015 and have not yet started day to day operations full time. As a result of our startup operations, we have (i) generated no revenues, (ii) will accumulate deficits due to organizational and startup activities, business plan
development, and professional fees since we organized. There is nothing at this time on which to base an assumption that our business operations will prove to be successful or that we will ever be able to operate profitably. Our future operating results will depend on many factors, including our
16
ability to raise adequate working capital, availability of land which to build our properties, the level of our competition and our ability to attract and maintain key management and employees plus additional capital. In addition, the Coronavirus health crisis will damper these efforts.
II. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is significantly dependent on Michael Gilmore as the founder, CEO, and manager. The loss or
unavailability of his services would have an adverse effect on the direction of the business, operations, and prospects in that we may not be
able to obtain new management under the same financial arrangements, the intended benchmarks of developments and portfolio companies,
which could result in a loss of your investment.
Our business plan is significantly dependent upon the abilities and continued participation of Michael Gilmore. It would be exceedingly difficult to replace Mr. Gilmore at such an early stage of development of the company. The loss by or unavailability of his services would have an adverse effect on our business, its direction, operations, and prospects, in that our inability to replace Michael Gilmore could result in the loss of
ones investment. There can be no assurance that we would be able to locate or employ personnel to replace Mr. Gilmore should his services be discontinued. In the event that we are unable to locate or employ personnel to replace Mr. Gilmore, we would be required to cease pursuing our business opportunity, which could result in a loss of your investment. The company has researched and identified over 85 business startups and developments it will undertake, develop, build and own, all falling under the umbrella of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC and relating exclusively to real estate and real estate related assets including technology, financial services and consumer products, goods and services.
III. Explanation Note about Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC ability to continue as a going concern by the independent auditors.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC (the Company) ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. Currently, GH GL, LLC has a deficit of ($1,650) appertaining to our operations, assets, debts and yet to be fully capitalized, as a startup. However, the company has recorded, from a third party affiliate, held cash of $10,405 for 2019 and 2018 (see Capital Contributions). Having said, our Company may never raise enough money to fund its intended business operations. Additionally, our Company currently has no financing in place and there is no guarantee that our firm will ever receive financing. Our revenues and costs are dependent upon equity raise, selling securities / stock in the company.
IV. As Investors, you may not have the opportunity to evaluate Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC development investments before we
commence, design, and build them, which makes your investment more speculative.
Investors will be unable to evaluate the economic merit of our investments and/or note investments before we commence them and will
be entirely relying on the ability of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC management to select our investments, which involve what projects will be built first. Furthermore, our Manager will have broad discretion in implementing policies regarding credit, creditworthiness, development, leverage, construction, design/build, land, etc., and you will not have the opportunity to evaluate potential tenants, managers, retailers, restaurants, etc., or borrowers for our loan products, VISA and MasterCard, etc. These factors increase the risk that your investment may not generate returns comparable to our competitors.
17
V. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC management will have control over the Company and will therefore make all decisions of which
Stockholders will have no control.
Michael L Gilmore Development Co., now Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC, our Manager, shall make certain decisions without input by the Stockholders. Such decision may pertain to employment decisions, including our Manager compensation arrangements, the appointment of other officers and managers, and whether to enter into material transactions with related parties such as direct investments from venture, crowdfunding, hedge funds, equity firms, institutional investors, etc.
VI. An investment in Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC securities is highly illiquid. As investors, you may never be able to sell or otherwise
dispose of your stock equity.
Since there is limited public trading market for our stock and securities, you may never be able to liquidate your investment or otherwise dispose of your equity. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC currently has a redemption program, but there is no guarantee that the Company will ever redeem or Buy Back your securities. Furthermore, no investor is allowed to redeem their Securities until twelve (12) months after the Stock is purchased. The Company will only redeem up to 4.99% of the value of the assets as calculated on December 31 of prior and future years. Our real estate fund will have up to 12 months to raise $50,000,000, which is crucial for our developments, businesses, and your future returns as investors.
Risks Related to the Real Estate Business in General
VII. The profitability of attempted ground up developments and startups particular in urban areas or Opportunity Zones are uncertain.
As a company, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC intends to acquire land and develop properties selectively. Developing properties entail risks that investments might fail to perform in accordance with expectations. In undertaking these developments, we will incur certain risks, including the expenditure of funds on, and the devotion of management time to, transactions that may not come to fruition. Additional risks inherent in development include risks that the properties will not achieve anticipated revenues or occupancy levels and that estimates of the costs of construction to bring raw land and the development thereof up to Class A and B properties standards established for market position intended for the property development may prove inaccurate. Expenses may also be greater than anticipated.
VIII. Real estate investments are illiquid.
Because real estate investments are relatively illiquid, our ability to vary our developments portfolio in response to economic or other conditions will be limited. The foregoing and any other factor or event that would impede our ability to respond to adverse changes in the performances of our development investments could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. This also includes the current health crisis of the Coronavirus which affects consumers, the economy, companies, corporations, and investors.
18
IX. Rising expenses could reduce cash flow and funds available for future developments.
Our developments and the land required thereunto will be subjected to increases in tax rates, utility costs, construction, operating
expenses, architectural design, insurance costs, security and maintenance, administrative and other expenses. If we are unable to find land, build upon land, design and build our residential and commercial properties, etc., and incurring expenses thereof, including tenants who might not be able to pay all or some of the expenses when leased in the new properties, we would be required to pay those costs, which could adversely affect funds unavailable for future developments or cash available for distributions.
X. If Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC design and develop assets at a time when the single family, multifamily, condominiums or commercial
real estate market is experiencing substantial influxes of capital investment and competition for land and development construction, the real
estate that we design, and build may not appreciate or may decrease in value.
The multifamily, single family and commercial markets are currently experiencing a substantial influx of capital from investors worldwide. This substantial flow of capital, combined with significant competition for real estate, may result in inflated prices and development costs for such assets. To the extent we design and develop real estate in such an environment, we are subject to risk that if the real estate market ceases to attract the same level of capital investment in the future as it is currently attracting, or if the number of companies seeking to develop and acquire such assets decreases, our returns will be lower and the value of our asses may not appreciate or may decrease significantly below the amount we paid for as in land and the construction amount, etc., for such assets.
A single family, multifamily, or commercial property income and value may be adversely affected by national and regional economic conditions, local real estate conditions such as oversupply of properties or land, developed properties or a reduction in demand for new developed properties, availability of for sale properties such as land, competition for other properties such as land, our ability to provide the funds and development cause for such properties as land to build upon, and once constructed and leased, our ability to provide adequate maintenance, insurance and management services, increased operating costs (including real estate taxes), the attractiveness and location of the development property and changes in rental rates and construction costs. Our income will be adversely affected if a significant number of tenants in our residential properties are unable to pay rent or if our new properties cannot be rented on favorable terms. Our performance is linked to economic conditions in the regions where our new properties will be located and in the market for single, multifamily, and commercial spaces generally. Therefore, to the extent that there are adverse economic conditions in those regions and in these markets generally, that impact the applicable market rents and development costs, such conditions could result in a reduction of our income and cash available for distributions and thus affect the amount of distributions we can make to you.
XI. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will depend on tenants for some of our revenue and therefore our revenue may depend on the success
and economic viability of our future tenants.
Our company will highly be dependent on income from either tenants in our new single family rental homes, multifamily apartments, rental condominiums, and our developed commercial properties. Our financial results will depend in part on leasing our new properties and projects such as retail centers and residential new properties on economically favorable terms. In the event of a tenant default in one of our new dwellings prior to
19
stabilization, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlords and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investments, demographic trends in the area and available financing. There is a risk that we will not realize any significant appreciation although new properties on our investments in such. Accordingly, our ability to recover all or any portion of your investment under such circumstances will depend on the amount of funds so realized and claims to be satisfied therefrom.
XII. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will not sell any property that we design and build, lease so that we will emerge and grow. We are a
Holding Company.
Our company will not sell any property that we build. Moreover, all revenues generated from such properties such as single family, multifamily and commercial real estate will allow our company to grow and emerge. Therefore, your investment may be at risk and you may not be able to recover any or all of your investments. We Will only develop such properties that we know will attempt to bring in high yields, revenues, profits, and investments. Furthermore, our Company will also acquire mortgages, liens, and interests in real estate in case of land acquisitions and the purchases of notes, etc., to buy old and abandon buildings, which we will tear down and build a new. Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations, as Amended.
Note: (Amended)
XIII. This offering is a blind pool offering, and therefore, Members will not have the opportunity to evaluate some of our businesses and
development investments before we make them, which makes investments more speculative.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will seek to invest substantially all of the net offering proceeds from this Offering, after the payment of fees and expenses, in the development of residential and commercial real estate, technology and financial services and/or investments in interests of said assets. However, because, as of the date of this prospectus, we have not identified the assets we will construct and startup due to capital and financing and because our Member(s) will be unable to evaluate the economic merit of future assets before we design and build them, they will have to rely on the ability of our Manager to select suitable and successful investment opportunities. These factors increase the risk that our Members investment may not generate returns comparable to our competitors.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC and its Management Michael Gilmore set forth the disclosure required by Industry Guide 5 in this Offering Statement, which we will fursuccinctly describes below. Our Company believes that the other provisions of Guide 5 disclosure are not applicable to offerings by non-public trading REITS such as our Company as a proptech and fintech, emerging growth, holding company, and Georgia domestic, limited liability company (LLC), and may contend to confuse potential investors as we outlined that being a blind pool offering, our Members will not have the opportunity to evaluate some of our businesses and development investments before we make them, which makes investments more speculative. Throughout the Offering are detailed risks and explanations that explain our position. Moreover, we hitherto set forth the following as outlined in this Offering Statement, the requisites for Guide 5.
Item 1: The Cover Page was succinct, brief, and followed the disclosures required and does not require changes.
20
Item 2: Our Company believes that, its already disclosures, as to the risks and uncertainties associated with an investment, in the offering, fully comply with federal securities laws, and, therefore, that the Offering statement should not include statements related to suitability standards.
Item 3: Our Company believes that it has fully described its structure and how it intends to use the proceeds of the offering as outlined throughout the Offering Statement.
Item 4: Our Company believes that in regards to payments that the General Partner and its affiliates may earn or receive in connection with the offering or operation of the partnership, there are no such arrangements as Michael Gilmore is the only Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Technology Officer (the only employee) that will launch the company. Even though there are no compensation to a third party general partner as contemplated by Guide 5, the Company's compensation of it sole officer and manager is fully disclosed and our Company has otherwise disclosed the relevant information called for by Item 4 that is applicable to Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC.
Item 5: Our Company believes that its disclosure, regarding conflicts of interests provides relevant information required under Item 5.
Item 6: Our Company believes that this item, discussing fiduciary obligations of the General Partner is inapplicable. Management has stated throughout the offering what its role and responsibilities.
Item 7: Our Company believes that its disclosure in the section of the Offering Statement entitled "Risk Factors" provides the relevant information called for by Item 7.
Item 8: Our Company laments that Item 8 of Guide 5 calls for a narrative summary of the track record or prior performance of programs sponsored by the General Partner and its affiliates (sponsors). Even though this offering is considered a blind pool offering, the Company believes that it does not have any prior performance to disclose. In addition, the instructions to Item 8 state that Sponsors are urged not to include in the prospectus information about prior performance beyond that required by this Guide. Although not defined in Guide 5, in the Releases that accompany the adoption of, and revisions to, Guide 5 (which was originally adopted as Guide 60), the Commission has discussed what it meant by the term program as used in Guide 5. In Release No. 34 18161 (October 7, 1981), for example, the Commission makes clear that a program is a three phase investment fund or a syndication involving (i) an offering or organization phase in which, the sponsor (who also serves as promoter and, later, general partner) organizes and registers the offering; (ii) a second, operational phase of the program [which] commences with the acquisition of properties; and (iii) a third phase in which, depending on the investment objectives of the program, the program is completed as the partnerships are liquidated and wound down. In addition, the track record information called for by Item 8 of Guide 5 and the accompanying Appendices reinforces this view of the Commission relating to what Guide 5 means when it calls for, track record information of programs sponsored by the General Partner and its affiliates, and Release No. 33 6900 (June 17, 1991) reinforces the view that a program involves an offering of partnership interests.
Our Company does not believe that our sole officer and manager has sponsored a (program). As indicated in the Offering Statement, our sole officer and manager has experience managing a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, tax exempt public charity since 2003, and founded over 85 companies,
on paper, pre startups (concepts stores and restaurants), all of which are listed under Company Subsidiaries and Emerging Growth Businesses. Furthermore, our Company believes that neither of these amounts to a (program) within the meaning of Guide 5.
21
Item 9: Our Company believes that its disclosure in the section of the Offering Statement entitled Management Discussion provides the relevant information called for by Item 9 and is echoed and cross reference throughout the prospectus.
Item 10: Our Company believes that its disclosure in the section of the Offering Statement entitled Investment Policies and other places in the Offering provides the relevant information called for by Item 10.
Item 11: Our Company believes that its disclosure in the section of the Offering Statement entitled Investment Policies, other places, and with Respect to Certain Activities (investments in real estate) provides the relevant information called for by Item 11.
Item 12: Our Company believes that its disclosure in the section of the Offering Statement entitled Tax Treatment and other places throughout provides the relevant information called for by Item 2.
Item 13: Our Company believes that its disclosure throughout the Offering Statement is either nontechnical in nature or is not susceptible to varying methods of computation and, therefore, that the requirement of Item 13 is not applicable.
Item 14: Our Company believes that the descriptions of the material provisions of our Offering, Operating Agreement, and key elements throughout the Prospectus and Form 1 A, Part II and III provide the relevant information called for by Item 14.
Item 15: Our Company believes that its disclosure in the Offering Statement provides the relevant information called for by Item 15.
Item 16: Our Company believes that its disclosure in the Offering Statement provides the relevant information called for by Item 16.

However, our Company will advertise via social media as mentioned in the Offering Statement and thereby will be Amended from the SEC Comment Letter to reflect, not sales materials, but test the water materials as exhibits.
Item 20: Our Company believes that the Offering Statement provides the relevant information required.
22
IXV. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC businesses and development properties may not be highly diversified.
Our potential profitability and our ability to diversify our businesses and development projects may be limited, both geographically
and by type of properties designed and built. We will be able to build additional residential and commercial real estate, and our startup
businesses etc., only as additional funds are raised, and only if owners of real estate accept our Class A Interests in exchange for an interest in the target properties developed, company or title such as land. Thus, our businesses and properties may not be well diversified, and their economic performance could be affected by changes in the local economic conditions.
Our performance is therefore linked to economic conditions in the states in which we will establish our businesses, design, and build our properties, and in the market for real estate properties and land generally. Therefore, to the extent that there are adverse economic conditions in the states in which our properties will be located and in the market for real estate properties that we will design, build, develop and startup, such conditions could result in a reduction of our income and cash to return capital and thus affect the amount of distributions we can make to you.
XV. Competition with third parties in designing, building, starting up and operating properties may reduce Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC
profitability and the return on your investment.
Our company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will compete with many other entities engaged in real estate investment activities, many of which have greater resources than we do. Specifically, there are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies and foreign investors that operate in the markets in which we may operate, that will compete with, in building businesses and developing residential, commercial and other properties that will also be seeking investments and tenants for these properties.
Many of these entities have significant financial and other resources, including operating experience, allowing them to compete effectively with us. Competitors with substantially greater financial resources than us may generally be able to accept more risk than we can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the creditworthiness of entities in which investments may be made or risks attendant to a geographic concentration of investments. Demand from third parties for properties such as land or abandon residential and commercial which we will buy and develop businesses, etc., could result in an increase of the price for such properties. If we pay higher prices for such, our profitability may be reduced, and you may experience a lower return on your investment. In addition, our properties may be located in close proximity to other properties that will compete against our new properties for tenants, etc. Many of these competing properties may be better located and/or appointed than the properties that we will acquire and develop, giving these properties a competitive advantage, and we may, in the future face additional competition from properties not yet constructed or even planned. This competition could adversely affect our business. The number of competitive properties could have a material effect on our competition for residential renters and commercial tenants.
In addition, our ability to charge premium rates may be negatively impacted. This increased competition may increase our costs of land acquisitions and abandon properties or lower the occupancies and the rent we may charge tenants. This could result in decreased cash flow
from residential and commercial tenants and may require us to make capital improvements to properties we will buy, design and develop such as old apartment buildings, dilapidated shopping centers, abandon single family homes, etc., which we could not have otherwise made, thus affecting cash available for distribution to you.

XVI. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC may not have control over costs arising from ground up construction of properties and businesses.
As an emerging growth company, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC, a proptech and fintech firm, will elect to acquire land, old residential and commercial properties, tear down and construct from the ground up, meaning that we purchase the land and implement a plan to construct single family, multifamily, condominiums, retail stores and restaurants, shopping centers, hotels, etc., on the land. In particular, we may acquire affordable land and properties, tear down as stated and convert to market rate properties. We may also purchase land, entitle the land for a new multifamily building, single family residence or commercial building (if that is not already provided), architect a multifamily building, single family residence, or commercial building and build brand new such facilities. Consequently, we intend to retain independent general contractors to perform the actual physical construction work and will be subject to risks in connection with a contractors ability to control new construction costs, the timing of completion of construction, and a contractors ability to build in conformity with plans and specifications.
XVII. The consideration paid for our target land, old properties, and new developments may exceed fair market value, which may harm
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC financial condition and operating results.
The consideration that we pay will be based upon numerous factors, and the target acquisition such as land, abandon residential and commercial buildings that may be purchased in a negotiated transaction rather than through a competitive bidding process. We cannot assure
anyone that the purchase price that we pay for a target acquisition such as land or its appraised value will be a fair price, that we will be able to generate an acceptable return on such target acquisition, or that the location, lease terms or other relevant economic and financial data of any old or raw properties that we acquire will meet acceptable risk profiles. We may be unable to lease new space, lease vacant space or negotiate leases at market rates in some instances, which would adversely affect our returns on a target development property. As a result, our investments that will target such may fail to perform in accordance with our expectations, which may substantially harm our operating results and financial condition.
XVIII. The failure of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC development properties, startup businesses, and financial services to generate positive
cash flow or to appreciate in value would most likely preclude our Stockholders from realizing a return on their Interest ownership.
There is no assurance that our real estate investments in residential, commercial, businesses startup and financial services such as our private label Visa/MasterCard will appreciate in value, make money or profitable. The marketability and the raising of capital through Regulation A, Tier 2 will depend on many factors beyond our control of our management. One of the obstacles to overcome is convincing American consumers and citizens to buy into our Regulation A, residential and commercial developments, our 85 plus business startups, etc. There is no assurance that there will be a ready market for the development properties, businesses, services, goods, and products, since investments in real property are generally nonliquid. The real estate market is affected by many factors, such as general economic conditions, availability of financing, interest rates and other factors, including supply and demand that will be beyond our control. We cannot predict whether we will be able to develop any properties, start businesses, etc. Moreover, we cannot predict the terms associated with financing and construction, property acquisition, etc. Furthermore, we may be required to put a larger down payment and equity beyond the 10% to 20%.
These factors and any others that would impede our ability to respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties and businesses cold significantly harm our financial condition and operating results.
24
IXX. Illiquidity of real estate investments could significantly impede Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC ability to respond to adverse changes
in the performance of our new properties and harm our financial condition. Additionally, as stated, the health and well being of America and
the world play a part.
Because real estate investments are relatively illiquid, our ability to develop one or more properties, businesses and other underpinnings or investments in our forthcoming portfolio in response to changing economic, financial and investment conditions may be limited. In particular, these risks could arise from weakness in or even the lack of established market for a new property, changes in financial condition or prospects of prospective land acquisition and property sellers such as old residential and commercial properties that have been abandon, etc., changes in national or international economic conditions, and changes in laws, regulations or fiscal policies of jurisdictions in which the property is located. We may be unable to realize our investment objectives by sale, other disposition, or construction financing at attractive prices within any given period of time or may otherwise be unable to complete any exit strategy. An exit event is not guaranteed and is subject to Manager Gilmore discretion.
Risks Related to Financing
NOTE: Disclosure (Amended) Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations. Moreover, financing is not currently in place and there is no guarantee that our Company will ever receive financing.
XX. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC might obtain lines of credit and other borrowings, which increases our risk of loss due to potential
foreclosure.
Our company may obtain lines of credit and long term financing that may be secured by our assets. Since Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will acquire land, acquire old properties, and tear them down, design and develop residential and commercial real estate, starting up
businesses in the retail and restaurants sectors such as putting Can You Spare A Dollar? $1.00 Stores around the United States, obtaining lines of credit and other borrowings will be necessary and crucial although due to conditions and economics, some properties might possibly foreclose. We will be highly selective in what we build and the locations in which to build to make sure that the stores are profitably.
As with any liability, there is a risk as noted that we will be unable to repay our obligations from the cash flow of assets. Therefore, when borrowing and securing such financing with our assets, we risk losing such assets in the event we are unable to repay such obligations or meet such demands.
XXI. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC have broad authority to incur debt and high debt levels which could hinder our ability to make
distributions and decrease the value of our investors investments.
Our policies do not limit us from incurring debt until our total liabilities would be 80% of the value of the assets of the Company.
We intend to borrow as much as 80% to 90% of the value of our new properties, for businesses startups, etc. We do not currently own any
properties. High debt levels would cause us to incur higher interest charges and higher debt service payments and may also be accompanied by restrictive covenants. These factors could limit the amount of cash we have available to distribute and could result in a decline in the value
of our investors investments.
25
Risks Related to Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC Corporate Structure
XXII. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC does not set aside funds in a sinking fund to pay distributions or redeem the Interests, so you must
rely on our revenues from operations and other sources of funding for distributions and withdrawal requests. These sources may not be
sufficient to meet these obligations.
Our company does not contribute funds on a regular basis to a separate account, commonly known as a sinking fund, to pay distributions on or redeem the Interests at the end of the applicable nonwithdrawal period. Accordingly, you will have to rely on our cash from operations and other sources of liquidity, such as borrowed funds and proceeds from future offerings of securities, for distribution payments and payments upon withdrawal. Our ability to generate revenues from operations in the future is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, statutory, and other factors that are beyond our control. Moreover, we cannot assure you that we will have access to additional sources of liquidity if our cash from operations are not sufficient to fund distributions to you.
Our need for such additional sources may come at undesirable times, such as during poor market or credit conditions when the costs of funds are high and/or other terms are not as favorable as they would be during good market or credit conditions. The cost of financing will directly impact our results of operations, and financing on less than favorable terms may hinder our ability to make a profit. Your right to receive distributions on your Interests is junior to the right of our general creditors to receive payments from us. If we do not have sufficient funds to meet our anticipated future operating expenditures and debt payment obligations as they become due, then you could lose all or part of your investment. We currently do not have any revenues.
XXIII. Investors will have limited control over changes in Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC policies and operations, which increase the
uncertainties and risks you face as an Investor and Stockholder.
CEO Gilmore determines our major policies, including our policies regarding financing, growth, and debt capitalization. As Manager, he may amend or revise these and other policies without a vote of the Members. Our Managers broad discretion in setting policies and our Members inability to exert control over those policies increase the uncertainty and risks you will face as a Member. In addition, our Manager may change our investment objectives without seeking Member approval. Although management and the board will have fiduciary duties to our Members and intends only to change our investment objectives when the board determines that a change is in the best interests of our Members, a change in our investment objectives could cause a decline in the value of your investment in our company.
XXIV. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC ability to make distributions to our Members is subject to fluctuations in our financial performance,
operating results and capital improvement requirements.
Currently, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC strategy will include paying a preferred return to investors under this Offering that would result in an annualized return on investment, of which there is no guarantee. In the event of downturns in our operating results, unanticipated capital improvements to our properties, or other factors, we may be unable to declare or pay distributions to our Members. The timing and amount of distributions are the sole discretion of our Manager who will consider, among other factors, our financial performance, any debt service obligations,
26
any debt covenants, our taxable income, and capital expenditure requirements. We cannot assure you that we will generate sufficient cash in order to fund distributions.
XXV. Investors will not receive the benefit of the regulations provided to real estate investment trusts or investment companies.
Note: (Amendment)
Registration and Exemptions Under the Investment Company Act of 1940
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC does not fall within the definition of an investment company because we are a small startup company that is not an operating company who have large amounts of assets invested in cash management instruments, government securities and money market funds. Moreover, our Company is not an investment company because of our specific companies, development and operations outlined herein of which we do not invest in or have investments in certain securities, which may trigger the act's 40 percent test.
Section 3(a)(a)(A) of the act defines an investment company as an issuer that is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily in an investment company business. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is not such a company. Section 3(a)(1)(B) defines an investment company as an issuer that is a face-amount certificate company. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is not such a company. Section 3(a)(1)(C) defines an investment company as an issuer that holds more than 40 percent of its assets (other than cash and government securities) in investment securities.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is not such as company.
According to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, An issuer is any person who issuer or proposes to issue any security or has outstanding any security that he or she has issued. A security is defined in Section 29a)(36) of the act to be any of the following: any note, stock, treasury stock, security future, bond, debenture, evidence of indebtedness, certificate of interest or participation in any profit-sharing agreement, collateral-trust certificate, transferable share, investment contract, voting-trust certificate, certificate of deposit for a security, fractional undivided interest in oil, gas or other mineral rights, any put, call, straddle, option, or privilege on any security, or any put, call, straddle, option or privilege entered into on a national securities exchange relating to foreign currency or, in general, any interest or instrument commonly known as a security.
Under Section 3(a)(1)(C) of the act, as lamented, an issuer may become an investment company if it is engaged, or proposes to engage, in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and it owns or proposes to acquire, investment securities having a value exceeding 40 percent of the value of its total assets, exclusive of government securities and cash items, on a consolidated basis. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is not such a company.
Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Law is clear. Moreover, our Company clearly falls under its exemptions. As the law outlines, there are a number of exemptions from registration available to issuer.
Section 3(c)(1) of the act excepts from the definition of investment company "any issuer whose outstanding securities (other than short-term paper) are beneficially owned by not more than 100 person and which is not making and does not presently propose to make a public offering of its securities." Thus, no more than 100 persons may beneficially own the issuers outstanding securities, other than short-term paper. In addition, the
27
beneficially owned securities may be voting or nonvoting securities. A beneficial owner is generally determined by whether such person has the ability to decide whether, or how much, to invest in those securities. In addition, securities that are jointly owned by spouses are considered to be one beneficial owner.
According to the Investment Act of 1940, the various exceptions from the definition of an investment company include the following: (As Amended, Our Company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC sets forth the criteria in this Offering, which analyzes how our investments, investment strategies and business model supports the exemptions).
* Any person primarily engaged in the business of underwriting and distributing securities issued by other persons, selling securities to customers, acting as a broker, and acting as market intermediary, or any other or more of such activities, whose gross income normally is derived principally from such business and related activities. (Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans meets this exemption as a direct issuer, selling securities to customers via its online portal and whose gross income will be derived principally from such business and related activities. In addition, GH GL, LLC may have other persons such as Crowdfunding Sites to help distribute its Securities such as StartEngine, as an example, or Realty Shares, where qualified if our company meets their criteria).
* A depository institution or a branch or agency of a foreign bank, a member bank of the Federal Reserve System, any other banking institution or trust company, whether incorporated or not, doing business under the laws of any state or of the United States, and a receiver, conservator, or other liquidating agent of any institution or firm included above.
* Any common trust fund or similar fund maintained by a bank exclusively for the collective investment and reinvestment of moneys contributed thereto by a bank in its capacity as a trustee, executor, administrator or guardian, if such funds are employed by the bank solely as an aid to the administration of trusts, estates, or other accounts created and maintained for a fiduciary purposes; except in connection with the ordinary advertising of the bank's fiduciary services, interests in such fund are not advertised or offered for sale to the general public; and fees and expenses charged by such fund are not in contravention of fiduciary principles established under applicable federal or state law.
* Any person substantially all of whose business is confined to making small loans, industrial banking, or similar businesses. (Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will offer future loans as specified in the Offering. Thus, Hence our name Gilmore Loans. Gilmore Loans, through our small loans division, will issue such student, home, personal, business, car, and mortgages, in the future).
* A company organized as an insurance company, whose primary and predominant business activity is the writing of insurance or the reinsuring of risks underwritten by insurance companies, and which is subject to the supervision of the insurance commissioner or a similar official or agency of a state, or any receiver or similar official or any liquidating agent for such company, in his capacity as such. (Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will offer future insurances as specified in the Offering.
Our insurances, in the future, will include renters, home, life, car and business low cost insurances, hence our name).
* Any person who is not engaged in the business of issuing redeemable securities, face-amount certificates of the installment type or periodic payment plan certificates, and who is primarily engaged in one or more of the following businesses; purchasing or otherwise acquiring notes, drafts, acceptances, open accounts receivable, and other obligations representing part or all of the sales price of merchandise, insurance, and services;
28
making loans to manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers of, and to prospective purchasers of, specified merchandise, insurance and other services; and purchasing or otherwise acquiring mortgages, and other liens and interests in real estate. (Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC may meet this exemption via its interests in real estate, the acquiring of notes and mortgages in case of land acquisitions, purchases of abandon buildings and apartments, mortgages on them, etc.).
* Any company primarily engaged, directly or through majority owned subsidiaries, in one of more businesses, e.g., majority owned subsidiary, holding companies, or in one or more of such business (from which not less than 25 percent of such company gross income during its last fiscal year was derived) together with an additional business or businesses other than investing, reinvesting, owning, holding, or trading in securities. (Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans meets and fall under this exemption as well as a holding company).
* Any issuer, the outstanding securities of which are owned exclusively by persons who, at the time of acquisition of such securities, are qualified purchasers, and which is not making and does not at the time proposes to make a public offering of such securities.
* Any person substantially all of whose business consists of owning or holding oil, gas, or other mineral royalties or leases, or fractional interests therein, or certificates of interest or participation in or investment contracts relative to such royalties, leases or fractional interests.
In sum, nothing in our Company: Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC Offering, Business Plan, Investment Strategies, Objectives, Benchmarks, Activities etc., classifies, defines, or qualifies us as an Investment Company or to register as an Investment Company, for we are not.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC falls under a few of the aforementioned exemptions from registration, and as amended below.
As Amended, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is not a real estate investment trust and enjoy a broader range of permissible activities. Under the Investment Act of 1940, an investment company is defined as an issuer which is or holds itself out as being engaged in primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities; is engaged or proposes to engage in the business of issuing face amount certificates of the installment type, or has been engaged in such business and has any such certificate understanding; or is engaged or proposes to engage in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding, or trading in securities, and owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40 per centum of the value of such issuer total assets (exclusively of Government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis.
We intend to operate in such manner as not to be classified as an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940 as we intend on primarily holding real estate. As a Small Business, we will incorporate real estate, technology, and financial services as an emerging growth company. The management and the investment practices and policies of our Company does not align us as an investment company nor does our business plan. If deemed an investment company, investors will be exposed to certain risks that would not be present if we
were subjected to a more restrictive regulatory situation, as a Regulation A, Tier 2.
XXVI. If we are deemed to be an investment company, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities
may be restricted. As amended, our Company meet the threshold of exemptions under the definition and meaning of the Investment Act.
29
If we are ever deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, we may be subject to certain
restrictions including:
. restrictions on the nature of our investments; and
. restrictions on the issuance of securities.
In addition, we may have imposed upon us certain burdensome requirements, including:
. registration as an investment company;
. adoption of a specific form of corporate structure; and
. reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy, compliance policies and procedures and disclosure requirements and other rules and regulations.
XXVII. The exemption from the Investment Company Act of 1940 may restrict our operating flexibility. Failure to maintain this exemption
may adversely affect our profitability. As amended, our Company shows several exemptions, which analyze how our investments,
investment strategy and business model support the exemptions, as outlined in this Offering).
We do not believe that at any time we will be deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as we do not intend
on trading or selling securities. Rather, we intend to hold and manage real estate. However, if at any time we may be deemed an investment company, we believe we will be afforded an exemption under Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the Investment Act of 1940, as amended (referred to in this Offering as the 1940 Act). Section 3(c)(5)(C) of the 1940 Act excludes from regulation as an investment company any entity that is primarily engaged in the business of purchasing or otherwise acquiring mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate. To qualify for this exemption, we must ensure our asset composition meets certain criteria. Generally, 55% of our assets must consist of qualifying mortgages and other liens on and interests in real estate and the remaining 45% must consist of other qualifying real estate type interests. Maintaining this exemption may adversely impact our ability to acquire or hold investments, to engage in future business activities that we believe could be profitable or could require us to dispose of investments that we might prefer to retain.
If we are required to register as an investment company under the 1940 Act, then the additional expenses and operational requirements associated with such registration may materially and adversely impact our financial conditions and results of operations in future periods.
As discussed, our Company meet other exemptions as well as outlined on page 21. For Cross Referencing Purposes, please see page 21.
Investment Advisers Act of 1940 to External Managers
Note: (As Amended).
30
Founder and Owner Michael Gilmore, the Chief Executive Officer of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is responsible for analyzing the applicability of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 to its external Manager. The Securities and Exchange Commission has set forth a 60 page document outlining Regulation of Investment Advisers and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. After reading the document juxtaposed analyzing thereunto, which our external manager Michael Gilmore and any hired future managers will follow, our company and its management are not investment advisers nor will operate as such. Specifically, we are not an investment company, investment consultant, financial planner, or money manager. The Company and its Manager as the CEO will sell securities in our Company, not our projects and businesses. The money raised from the selling of our Class A Securities will go to fund and operate our businesses and its real estate. Note: Our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business purposes.
For Definition of an Investment Adviser, Section 202(a)(11) of the Act defines an investment adviser as any person or firm that: (1) for compensation; (2) is engaged in the business of; and (3) providing advice to others or issuing reports or analyses regarding securities. According to the SEC, a person MUST satisfy all three elements to fall within the definition of investment adviser.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC and its Management Michael Gilmore does not satisfy all three elements. Moreover, the SEC staff has stated that advise about real estate, etc., is not advice about securities (II)(A)(3)(a)(7).
Tender Offer Rules (Tender Offer Considerations, Cash Repurchases and Exchange Offers)
Note: (As Amended).
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans and its Management is responsible for analyzing the applicability of the tender offer rules to our share repurchase program, including Regulation 14E, which would apply to any tender offer for securities issued pursuant to the Regulation A exemption. The term tender offer is not specifically defined in the statue or in the SEC regulations. The lack of a specific definition has permitted the SEC and the courts to apply tender offer rules to a broad range of transaction structures.
The analysis of whether an offer constitutes a tender offer begins with the often cited eight factor test cited in the case of Wellman vs Dickinson: (1) An active and widespread solicitation of public shareholders for the shares of an issuer, (2) A solicitation is made for a substantial percentage of the issuer securities, (3) The offer to purchase is made at a premium over the prevailing market price, (4) The terms of the offer are firm rather than negotiable, (5) The offer is contingent on the tender of a fixed number of shares, often subject to a fixed maximum number to be purchased, (6) The offer is open only for a limited period of time, (7) The offeree is subjected to pressure to sell his or her security, and (8) Public announcements of a purchasing program concerning the target issuer precede or accompany a rapid accumulation of large amounts of target issuers securities.
These eight factors need not all be present for a transaction to be deemed a tender offer. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will ensure appertaining to Section 14(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), which is an antifraud provision that establishes the baseline for tender offer regulation. Section 14(e) prohibits an offeror from making any untrue statement of a material fact or omitting to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Section 14(e) also prohibits any fraudulent, deceptive, or manipulating acts in connection with a tender offer. Section 14(e) also applies to cash tender offers, as well as to exchange offers subject to the tender offer requirements. This also applies to both third-party tender offers as well as issuer tender offers, which our Company will analyze and follow.
31
Additionally, after our redemption program commences after a 12 month holding period, our firm is responsible for analyzing the applicability of Regulation M to our share repurchase program. Thus, after analyzing, all the elements of our share repurchase program is consistent with the class relief granted by the Division of Market Regulation in the class exemptive letter granted Alston and Bird LLP dated October 22, 2007.
Insurance Risks
XXIX. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC may suffer losses that are not covered by insurance.
The geographic areas in which we invest may be at risk for damage to property due to certain weather related and environmental events, including such things as severe thunderstorms, hurricanes, flooding, tornadoes, snowstorm, sinkholes, and earthquakes. To the extent possible, the Manager may but is not required to attempt to acquire insurance against fire or environmental hazards. However, such insurance may not be available in all areas, nor are all hazards insurable as some may be deemed acts of God or be subject to other policy exclusions.
The Manager expects to obtain a lenders title insurance policy and will require that properties maintain hazard insurance naming the Company as the beneficiary. All decisions relating to the type, quality, and amount of insurance to be placed on our properties will be made exclusively by the Manager. Certain type of losses that may impact the security for our properties could be of catastrophic nature (due to certain things as ice storms, tornadoes, wind damage, hurricanes, earthquakes, landslides, sinkholes, and floods), some of which may be uninsurable, not fully insured or not economically insurable. This may result in insurance coverage that, in the event of substantial loss, would not be sufficient to pay the full prevailing market value or prevailing replacement cost of the underlying property. Inflation, changes in building codes and ordinances, environmental considerations, and other factors also might make it unfeasible to use insurance proceeds to replace the underlying property once it has been damaged or destroyed.
Under such circumstances, the insurance proceeds received might not be adequate to restore the property, leaving the Company without security
for its notes.
Furthermore, an insurance company may deny coverage for certain claims, and/or determine that the value of the claim is less than the cost to restore the property. Additionally, properties that we purchase may now contain or come to contain mold, which may not be covered by insurance and has been linked to health issues. In all cases of acquiring properties, the objective will be to tear down and build anew. The Manager will obtain its own insurance policies on properties that we acquire and build. Those properties could be subjected to damage and uninsured at the time of acquisition and purchase (raw land, land, and old abandon buildings), which the Company may suffer a loss of its security for a loan.
Federal Income Tax Risks
XXX. The Internal Revenue Service may challenge our characterization of material tax aspects of our investments in the Interests.
An investment in Interests involves material income tax risks which are discussed in detail in the section of this offering entitled
TAX TREATMENT OF COMPANY AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES starting on page 53.
32
Investors are urged to consult with your own tax advisor with respect to federal, state, local and foreign tax considerations of an investment in our Interests. We may or may not seek any rulings from the Internal Revenue Service regarding any of the tax issues discussed herein. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that the tax conclusions discussed in this offering, if contested, would be sustained by the IRS or any court. In addition, our (forthcoming) legal counsel will be unable to form an opinion as to the probable outcome of the contest of certain material tax aspects of the transactions described in this offering, including whether we will be characterized as a dealer so that future sales of our assets would give rise to ordinary income rather than capital gain and whether we are required to qualify as tax shelter under the Internal Revenue Code nor also gives no opinion as to the tax considerations to you of tax issues that have an impact at the individual or partner level.
XXXI. Investors may realize taxable income without cash distributions, and you may have to use funds from other sources to fund tax liabilities.
As a Stockholder of the Company, you will be required to report your allocable share of our taxable income on your personal tax return regardless of whether you have received any cash distributions from us. It is possible that your interests will be allocated taxable income in excess of your cash distributions. We cannot assure you that cash flow will be available for distribution in any year. As a result, you may have to use funds from other sources to pay your tax liability.
XXXII. Investors may not be able to benefit from any tax losses that are allocate to your Interests.
Interests may be allocated their share of tax losses should any arise. Section 469 of the Internal Revenue Code limits the allowance of
deductions for losses attributable to passive activities, which are defined generally as activities in which the taxpayer does not materially
participate. Any tax losses allocated to investors will be characterized as passive losses, and, Accordingly, the deductibility of such losses will be subject to these limitations. Losses from passive activities are generally deductible only to the extent of a taxpayers income or gains from passive activities and will not be allowed as an offset against other income, including salary or other compensation for personal services, active business income or portfolio income, which includes non business income derived from dividends, interest, royalties, annuities and gains from properties held for investment including sales.
We intend to hold our properties. Also, you may receive no benefit from your share of tax losses unless you are concurrently being allocated passive income from other sources.
XXXIII. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC may be audited which could subject you to additional tax, interests, and penalties.
Our federal income tax returns may be audited by the Internal Revenue Service. Any audit of the Company could result in an audit of your tax return. The results of such audit may require adjustments of items unrelated to your investment, in addition to adjustments to various Company items. In the event of any such audit or adjustments, you might incur attorney fees, court costs and other expenses in contesting deficiencies asserted by the Internal Revenue Service. You may also be liable for interest on any underpayment and penalties from the date your tax was originally due. The tax treatment of all Company items will generally be determined at the Company level in a single proceeding rather than in separate proceedings with each Member, and our Manager is primarily responsible for contesting federal income tax adjustments proposed by the Internal Revenue Service. In such a contest, our Manager may choose to extend the statute of limitations as to all Members and, in certain circumstances, may bind the Members to a settlement with the Internal Revenue Service.
33
Further, our Manager may cause us to elect to be treated as a large Company. If it does, we could take advantage of simplified flow through reporting of the Company items. Adjustments to Company items would continue to determine at the Company level however, and any such
adjustments would be accounted for in the year they take effect, rather than in the year to which such adjustments relate.
Our Manager will have the discretion in such circumstances either to pass along any such adjustments to the Members or to bear such adjustments at the Company level.
XXXIV. State and local taxes and a requirement to withhold state taxes may apply, and if so, the amount of net cash from open payable to you
would be reduced.
The state in which you reside may impose an income tax upon your share of our taxable income. Further, states in which we will own, develop, and build properties including establishing our startup businesses may impose income taxes upon your share of our taxable income allocable to any Company property located in that state. Many states have implemented or are implementing programs to require companies to withhold and pay state income taxes owed by nonresident Members relating to income-producing properties located in their states, and we may be required to withhold state taxes from cash distributions otherwise payable to you. You may also be required to file income tax returns in some states and report your share of income attributable to ownership and operation by the Company of properties in those states.
In the event we are required to withhold state taxes from your cash distributions, the amount of the net cash from operations otherwise payable to you would be reduced. In addition, such collection and filing requirements at the state level may result in increases in our administrative
expenses that would have the effect of reducing cash available for distribution to you. You are urged to consult with your own tax advisors with respect to the impact of applicable state and local taxes and state tax withholding requirements on an investment in our Interests.
XXXV. Legislative or regulatory action could adversely affect investors.
In recent years, numerous legislative, judicial, and administrative changes have been made in the provisions of the federal income tax laws applicable to investments similar to an investment in our Interests. Additional changes to the tax laws are likely to continue to occur, and we cannot assure you that any such changes will not adversely affect your taxation as a Member. Any such changes could have an adverse effect on an investment in our Interests or on the market value or the development potential and profits of our properties. You are urged to consult with your own tax advisor with respect to the impact of recent legislation on your investment in Interests and the status of legislative, regulatory, or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in our Interests (By Interests we mean development of our properties own, our businesses, our residential and commercial properties).

Subscribers may start their investment account when they have a minimum balance of $500. After stock purchase and minimum reach, our Company will then request that the amount be transferred from the transfer agent and escrow agent. Securities Transfer Corporation, our Escrow Agent, will transfer to our Company business banking account from $15,000 or more, pending raise, that will be in the Company name. Subscribers will now have to meet the minimum threshold of having $500 to invest, which will be put into the Company segregated business account from Escrow and Transfer Agent.
Such Subscriber funds in the Company segregated account will be used for working capital and operations once $15,000 is reached.
A Subscriber may not ask for a return of funds until after the 12 month holding period. Our Company will promptly return all investors funds if the minimum offering amount is not reached.

(1) Offering Expenses costs assume expenses related with completing Form 1 A, as well as those costs related to the services of a transfer agent, listing fees, operating costs, working capital, and legal costs, estimated at $55,000. These fees will come out of the capital raised showing receipts and expenditures proof thereunto along with independent audits as required per Regulation A, Tier 2.
(2) Selling Commission and Fees indicate that the Company (GH GL, LLC) does not intend on paying selling commissions or fees. In the event that the Company enters into an agreement with a licensed broker dealer, this Offering and Use of Proceeds table will be amended accordingly.
(3) Asset Management Fee entails the Manager receiving 10% annualized asset fee paid monthly to the Manager for its services related to asset management and day to day operations. The Manager Mr. Gilmore will receive a 10% fee of capital raised in lieu of salary, per policy.
Also, out of that 10% fee, the Manager (Michael Gilmore) is responsible for hiring and paying additional managers, employees, third party vendors, etc., out of the 10% annualized asset management fee only. As the table shows, the manager may receive from $1,500 a year (paid monthly) the minimum up to $5,000,000 a year (paid in monthly installments) the maximum. The figures are calculated in the Use of Proceeds table to show asset management performance based only if the capital is raised and management is acquiring land, residential and commercial properties, building such properties and establishing businesses, as an emerging growth company. As noted and stated, it is expected that the 10% Asset Management Fee will be derived from the capital raised and only if properties have been built and bringing in income and revenues.
Please also be advised that no other managers, the company asset manager Mr. Gilmore, employees, third party vendors, attorney, accountant, chief financial officer or whomever Manager Gilmore seems fit to hire, etc., shall not be paid out of any revenues (current or future) or capital raised (current or future) from the funds. The 10% allocation of the fund is to take care of all future managers, executive management team, employees
38
salaries, wages, benefits, insurances, taxes, expenses, etc., including Manager (Gilmore) own expenses for his living arrangements and expenses, vehicle and home acquisition/purchase, traveling, taxes due, insurances, etc.
(His 10% fee shall cover those expenses and the other 90% goes directly to the company and the company only for real estate transactions, as lamented). The Company decided to have in place an asset based management system (performance and commission based) instead of direct
salary or compensation. If the fund and company do not do well or make money, then the manager will not be paid. This arrangement is based on performance and outcome. Moreover, the success depends on Manager (Gilmore) producing results and building our residential, commercial and businesses portfolio. Furthermore, the company decided to arrange this performance based pay and the 10% thereof similar to a manager that receives 10% as an Agent / Manager for NBA / NFL players and other professional athletes juxtaposed an Actor / Actress / Entertainer paying their Agent / Manager a 10% fee. Therefore, our company will do the same. Note: Ninety Percent (90%) of capital raise via our Regulation A, Tier 2 will go towards the operations and development of our residential, commercial and business startup expenses only, as an emerging growth company (see # 4 Acquisitions, Development & Related in the above Table, page 38 and explanations to follow hitherto, page 39).
(4) Acquisitions, Developments and Related costs entail the company planning to acquire land (including raw and occupied land), purchase old and abandon residential and commercial properties, tear them down and build anew such as single family homes (for sale and for rent), multifamily apartments (affordable, market rate, co-living, shared, student and workforce), condominiums (for sale and for rent), establishing businesses and building around the United States such as Can You Spare A Dollar Store? $1.00 Stores, our Department Stores such as Gilmo Gilmoni; Gilmour Mical; Gentlemen, Preps & Yuppies; Lord, July & Christmas; our shopping centers, GILMORE TOWER, our mixed use developments, other retail stores and restaurants, hotels, low rises, mid rises and high rises, movie theaters, performing arts centers, grocery stores like our concept GIL $ MART, a food and general merchandise store, etc.
Proceeds from this offering shall go to the above and as outlined such as land, residential, commercial, and businesses establishments, property acquisitions, etc., as an emerging growth company. Our main acquisitions entail buying land (raw and occupied) in order to build a new or acquire old and abandon properties, tear them down, and build anew. Our company will NOT rehab properties, fix, and flip properties, fix, and sell properties, fix, and rent properties, sale properties, wholesale properties, remodel properties, fix up properties, etc. The related costs involve residential brokerage, commercial brokerage, real estate brokerage, real estate agent, real estate attorney, closing attorney, traveling to states to see land, acquire land, meet the owners and review neighborhood and demographics, research costs, land and property closing costs, our ability to quantify any of the expenses that we will purchase, acquire, develop, build, construct, establish, etc., which will depend on size of deal, price, due diligence performed (such as land appraisal, old and abandon properties appraisal, environmental, property condition reports, legal and accounting, etc.).
We expect all related costs to be correlated.
As an emerging growth company, our goal is to grow our company, create revenues for our company, split the profits of our company through our subscribers, investors, members and stock holders (related to Regulation A, Tier 2), and design (via architecture) and build new retail stores and restaurants, shopping centers, single family homes, multifamily apartments, condominiums, hotels, small performing arts centers, mixed use developments, low rises, mid rises and high rises, and other establishment of businesses, goods, services, and products as a fintech, proptech and consumertech, holding firm.
39
In the Table, on page 38, you will see, for example, acquisition, development, and related costs of $10,000,000 based on 25% of the capital raised and interests sold. Once $10,000,000 is raised, the Company will work on a mixed use project incorporating retail, restaurants, residential, office, hotel, and entertainment such as an arcade, indoor ice skating rink, bowling alley and movie theater incorporated in our projects. The $10,000,000 will be leveraged to build a $50,000,000 complex via debt / loan, and/or maybe five (5) apartment building, totaling $50,000,000 for five complexes throughout Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, Alabama, and Texas for example.
The same goes for the Interests Sold, such as outlined at 50%, 75% and 100% interests, such as $20,000,000, $30,000,000, and $40,000,000 respectively (See Table).
(5) Working Capital entails cost associated with our web development, marketing and working capital for the next 12 months.
(6) Legal and Accounting entails cost for accounting, audits, and legal fees associated with being a public company for the next 12 months.
The Use of Proceeds sets forth how we intend to use the funds under the various percentages of the related offering. All amounts listed are estimates.
The net proceeds will be used for ongoing audits when due, legal and accounting, reserve capital, working capital for the creation of a website, profit distributions to our stakeholders / subscribers / investors, and due diligence costs incurred in locating suitable land and abandon properties for acquisition, purchase and construction, establishing businesses, etc., for the next 12 months, and costs associated with acquiring such properties such as broker price opinions, closing costs, title reports, recording fees, accounting costs,
(Amended)
and legal fees. We determined estimates for ongoing professional fees and operating expenses and due diligence based upon the Managers various experiences in various industries such as real estate, philanthropy / nonprofit charities, and business planning, design and development juxtaposed his extensive educational experiences.
As of August 7 & 12, 2019, October 9 & 31, 2019, and November 19, 2019 up to June 2020, although the Company has a deficit of ($1,650) and separate cash reserves of $10,405 generated, the Manager Michael Gilmore plans to utilize his personal income, new lines of business cards and credits, etc., in order to further launch the company (Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC), from leveraging $1,000 up to $10,000 via credit or cash withdrawals from his credit cards, personal income, and company bank reserves being held by the H.U. Foundation on behalf of the company $10,405 allocated to the business, in order to successfully launch the company, advertise and market when approved and qualified, improve new website, business bank account, pay initial and ongoing accounting, audit and legal fees when money raised or borrowed, etc.
These expenditures will commence once the Company raise at least $15,000 (selling 300 shares at $50 per) or close to it.
Management will not receive any compensation for the efforts in selling our Class A Interests. He will only receive an Asset Management Fee of 10%, when the company has assets, begin to have assets, and start building assets, which then the manager will be eligible for the
10%, which in the initial case will be $10,000 since this will be Gilmore fulltime job after the SEC ruling deemed approved and qualified.
40
If the Company sells at least 300 Class A Interests, we believe we will have sufficient funds to continue our filing obligations as a reporting company for the next 12 months including further SEC and EDGAR filing fees, etc. We intend to use the proceeds of this offering in the manner and in order of priority set forth above. We do not intend, nor will the company use any proceeds to acquire other assets, other businesses, or finance the acquisition of other businesses and properties.
Our Company will only acquire land (raw) and in case of old and abandon shopping centers (land and the buildings thereof) only to tear down, design and construct our own properties such as apartments, shopping centers, hotels, condos, single family homes, retail stores and restaurants, etc. At present, no material changes are contemplated. Should there be any material changes in the projected use of proceeds in connecting with this Offering, we will issue an amended Offering reflecting the new uses. In sum, in all instances, after the qualification of this Form 1 A, the company will comply with its reporting obligations and its business plan.

(Amended)(Revised)
Note: Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations.
Moreover, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC currently has no financing in place and that there is no guarantee that our Company
will ever receive financing including borrowing, construction to permanent loans to design, build and construct our projects
and businesses.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our synopsis financial data and explanation notes, etc.,
contained in this filing.
Critical Accounting Practices and Policies
Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transaction period provided
in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for
public and private companies. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC have elected to take advantage of this extended transaction period, and
thus, our financial statements may not be comparable to those of other reporting companies. However, the statements follow PCAOB standards. Accordingly, until the date Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is no longer an emerging growth company or affirmatively opt out of the
exemption, upon the issuance of a new or revised accounting standard that applies to our financial statements and has a different
effective date for public and private companies, our proptech, fintech and consumertech company will disclose the date on which adoption is
required for non emerging growth companies and the date on which we will adopt the recently issued accounting standard.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
With the exception of historical matters, the matters discussed herein are forward looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. Forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning anticipated trends in revenues and net
income, projections concerning operations and available cash flow. Our actual results could differ materially from the results discussed
in such forward looking statements. The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in
conjunction with our related notes thereunto appearing elsewhere herein.
As noted, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC., as a startup, currently have limited operations, and a ($1,650) deficit related to assets, debts,
liabilities, revenues generated and yet to be capitalized. In 2018, CEO Michael Gilmore contributed toward the company $4,946.47, and $5,458.53
in 2019, totaling $10,405 at years end. Despite cash reserves held by a third party affiliate on behalf of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC,
Management agrees with the consensus of $1,650, not counting verified cash in deposits, which the Financials and Balance Sheet had to change based on Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC and not its organizer the Hattiesburg University Foundation, which held cash deposits on its behalf.
(Please see Cash Contributions table). Thus, Investors should analyze this Offering Circular and Management Discussion and Analysis of
45
Financial Condition as outlined carefully. With the current health crisis of the Coronavirus and the uncertainties of the global and USA
economy, our projected revenues, income, operations, cash flow, profit and loss, balance sheet, projects, developments, etc., will be greatly affected

to Atlanta, Georgia, for better opportunities, growth, personal and professional development, and entrepreneurship. On July 23, 2018,
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC filed with the State of Georgia its Certificate of Organization as a Domestic, Limited Liability Company.
As a proptech, fintech, and consumer tech, emerging growth company incorporating real estate, technology, financial services, and consumer goods,
we have no plans to change our business activities, to combine with another business or to not adhere to our business plan from the outset,

have any plans or arrangements to enter into a change of control, business combination, similar transaction or to change management.

general public) to become stakeholders in our company by owning shares and participating in equity assets, developments, and shared revenues.

highrises, multifamily apartments, shopping centers, condominiums, various retail, and restaurants concepts such as Can You Spare a Dollar?
Chain of $1.00 Stores, Gil*Mart, a Big Box Retailer, raw land, and various other business underpinnings (see our portfolio companies online
via www.michaelgilmorecompany.com).
Our proptech, fintech and consumertech emerging growth company will be owned by the Manager and its stakeholders (organizers, as in

Results of Operations
For the period ended December 31, 2019 (audited) and December 31, 2018 (audited)
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC, as a company, generated no revenues for the period ended December 31, 2018 and also for the
period ending December 31, 2019. In 2019, the company had a liabilities deficit of $1,650 in 2019, and $50 in 2018. Our company has generated expenses of $0 from inception, $0 in 2019, and $0 in 2018. Cash reserves and verified deposits of $10,405 could not be counted since the amount
was held by a third party affiliate, and not in the other company name or business account. CEO and Fund Manager Michael Gilmore contributed
46
to the company (see Capital Contributions table).
Total Expenses
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC had total operating expenses of $1,600 in 2019, with a loss from operations of ($1,600) and a net loss
of ($1,600). In 2018, the company had a total operating expenses of $50, with a loss from operations of ($50) and a net loss of ($50).
Assets
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC currently has a $1,650 deficit. Cash Assets of $10,405 could not be counted in revised, audited financials.
Liabilities
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC currently owe $1,650 in related party payables.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 ending, the company had total liabilities of $1,650 and $10,405 in cash, which could
not be counted since contributed by the owner principal, held in another account by the owner principal on behalf of the company (see Page 49).
Thus, the Audited Financials of FY 2019 and FY 2018 had to change based on management assessment. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC
prays and hopes to raise $50,000,000 maximum in this Offering with a minimum raise of $15,000, despite the current health, toll, and devastation
of the deadly Coronavirus on America and the world economy. If our proptech, fintech and consumertech emerging growth company is successful
at raising at least the minimum amount of this Offering in the present conditions of the United States, we wholeheartedly believe that is a success
and it will be sufficient enough to fund expenses over the next 12 months including ongoing reporting requirements and professional Regulation
A+, Tier II fees to the appropriate parties and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and at least down payment necessary for 1 or 2
single family homes (based on borrowing, not guaranteed). Although our Business Plan juxtaposed Benchmarks call for designing, developing, distributing, building, owning and managing all new, single family homes, highrises, hotels, multifamily apartments, condominiums, shopping centers, retail stores and restaurants concepts, and other business underpinnings, as lamented, there is no guarantee that our company will be able to
build such investments and assets. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC Offering depends highly on our capital raise and funding, the availability
of funds, the accredited and non accredited investors, consumers appetite and risk tolerant for startup investments and companies, and the
control of the Coronavirus that is ravaging the United States and currently crippling the world economies. However, according to various
sources such as Private Equity Brief, Crowdfunding Insider, Forbes, BizNow, the International Council of Shopping Centers, the Wall Street
Journal, Atlanta Business Chronicle, New York Business Chronicle, etc., capital raising is still ongoing although interrupted.
Upon QUALIFICATION of this Form 1 A, S 1 and its Offering, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC plans to heavily pursue its
Business Plan and Benchmarks of designing, developing, distributing, owning, building and managing our business portfolio, see via www.michaelgilmorecompany.com, and our Emerging Growth Businesses, within this Offering). With the current climate, there can be
no assurance of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC ability to undertake such or that additional capital will be available to our Company.
47
Moreover, new residential and commercial developments are being adversely affected now and our Company may not be able to pursue
our goals, plans, objectives, and strategies necessary for a successful fundraising goal attainment nor an opportunity to BUILD our portfolio companies. Our company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC currently has NO agreements, arrangements nor understandings with any
person or company to obtain funds through ventures, bank loans, private equity, lines of credit, NFL and NBA players, Hip Hop artists and entertainers, high net worth individuals or any such factors appertaining to any such sources. Since our proptech, fintech and consumertech
emerging growth company has no such underpinnings in effect, the inability to raise funds for the aforementioned purposes will have a
severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company and ongoing concern.
Related Party Transactions
Since Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC, FYs 2019 and 2018, the company has raised capital from its Manager and CEO. The Fund
Manager Michael Gilmore has provided cash for company startup expenses of which, $10,405.00 could NOT be recorded and thus the audited financials reflect a deficit of ($1,650). As of the date of the financial statements of the Company (December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2019),
two years ending, the independent audit reflects $1,650 in revised financials. It is expected that the Manager will be reimbursed for these expenses after adequate funds are raised and allocated from the Offering. In exchange for services related to this Offering and the management of the Company, the Manager will receive Class B Interests which are subordinate to our Class A Interests.
Going Concern of Company
Our independent auditors BF Borgers CPA PC included an explanatory paragraph in their report on the accompanying financial statements
regarding concerns about Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC ability to continue as an ongoing entity. Our financial statements contain
additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent PCAOB auditors.

or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital sources that is material to investors.

Plan of Operations
Note: Our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations. Moreover, our Company has no
financing in place and that there is no guarantee that Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC will ever receive financing. Borrowing money and
the debt for construction to permanent loans are part of our plans and operations. However, as noted, there is no guaranteed financing.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC plan of operations involve selling shares (stock) in the Company as a Proptech and Fintech emerging
growth firm encompassing real estate, technology, and financial services. In order to implement our plan of operations, our small business
has to raise funds via equity (cash) in order to begin developing and constructing small single family homes as rentals, launching one of
our concept retail stores and restaurants such as Can You Spare a Dollar? Chain of $1.00 Stores, the design and pre-development phase for
Gilmore Tower, followed by our multifamily apartments, condominiums, hotel, shopping centers and media, in that order, which is also outlined
specifically on page 9 via the Order of Priority of such purposes. However, the goal hitherto is to sell from 1,000 shares (minimum) to
1,000,000 shares (maximum), which will allow our Company to raise from $50,000 to $50,000,000. As discussed and disclosed throughout this
Prospectus, borrowing money is part of our plan of operations. Once the $50,000 is raised, our firm will request disbursement from the Escrow
Agent to begin the quest of purchasing a piece of land and building 1 to 4 single family homes. $50,000 will not be enough to undertake such,
so our company will use the $50,000 (10%) specifically as down payment to borrow $500,000 (90%), pending lending and banking institutions
loan criteria. If our initial securities are successful and we sell 10,000 shares at $50 per, then we will not need a bank loan or hard
money loan to purchase land and begin the construction of 1 to 4 or more single family homes.
Disclosure: Please be advised that Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC currently has no financing in place and that there is no guarantee
that our company will ever receive financing including borrowing, for construction to permanent loans to undertake our real estate
projects and businesses.
As noted throughout the prospectus, our plan of operations involve the design, development, distribution, and construction of residential
and commercial real estate. Thus, our plan of operations will be centered on such. After beginning constructing single family homes as
rentals, our next plan of operation involves designing and building our first initial concept retail store Can You Spare a Dollar? $1.00
Stores, a chain of retail stores to be launched in Atlanta and around the United States. When our company raises $100,000 or more, our
firm will also use a loan to again borrow $500,000 to $1,000,000 (pending loan criteria) to acquire commercial land and construct our
Dollar Store. The $100,000 (10%) will be used as down payment towards securing a loan of $500,000 (20%) to $1,000,000 (90%).
The estimated cost (building construction, beginning merchandise, furniture, and fixtures, and working capital) is estimated at $300,000
per 2,500 square feet, per store and commercial land acquisition (estimate) of $200,000 (plus or minus) totaling $500,000. Therefore,
raising $500,000 will enable Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC to build 1 store for $500,000 or 2 stores for $1,000,000.
All of the scenarios apply to our plan of operations. Our plan is based upon selling enough shares to at least afford the down-payment,
if our company does not have the immediate equity to outright purchase land and build the single family homes, dollar stores, etc. Please
note that our plan of operations also involves taking immediate action on developments. For example, our company will not sit idle waiting
on enough capital or enough shares. Once we raise the minimum of at least $50,000 (1,000 shares), we will take action to begin the
51
residential component, followed by the commercial component.
In sum, our plan of operations also involves Asset Manager Michael Gilmore as the only employee. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will
not hire any employees during the first year or 12 month holding period. This will be Mr. Gilmore full time job and dedication because of the
nature and milestones involved in getting the Company off the ground and the implementation of important benchmarks. The Financial
Expenditures of our Plan of Operations involved several third party transactions. For example, our firm will hire an architect to design and
develop the single family homes, beginning dollar stores, multifamily apartments, and Gilmore Tower. These financial transactions
also include retaining a securities attorney or attorney, auditor and/or accountant, (all of whom will contribute to required and ongoing
financial reports, audits, etc.), appraiser, real estate agent, retail broker, and a general contractor to construct the buildings. (Note: This list is
not all inclusive). Our Company will hire third party providers as needed. The aforementioned illustrates what will be required in our plans
of operation. Even if our small business raises from $50,000 to even $1,000,000 or $10,000,000, or $50,000,000, the first year and/or
12 months operation or holding period will involve the plan of operations of designing, developing, and building residential and commercial
real estate with Manager Gilmore as the sole employee, for the first year. Third party, independent providers are necessary enough to ensure that Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC respond to the SEC ASAP, provide the ongoing Reports and Financials, Reporting, etc. Our main focus and
plan of operations for the first year is simple: CREATE and BUILD, as noted throughout the Prospectus.

from its authorized lending partners. The $100,000 will be used to commence a loan in order to purchase land and build a retail,
dollar store. The Small Business Administration (SBA) requires at least 10% down on its loan programs. If our Company receives the
necessary equity injection, we will begin designing, developing, and distributing the stores in Atlanta with plans to scale around
the United States. This milestone involves equity raise for the month of September, hiring an architect to design the store for the
month of September, and commencing construction, if the loan is approved, for the month of October. Our firm anticipates the first
Can You Spare A Dollar? $1.00 Store opening in October or November of 2019. If our Firm raise enough capital to totally acquire
commercial land and construct the store including enough working capital for merchandise, hiring new employees, business license and
permit, furniture, and fixtures, beginning inventory, insurances, etc., (items that are involved in a retail and restaurant small business),
then we will not pursue a loan, only if we sell enough stock for equity in order to implement. As noted throughout this Prospectus,
our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations. Nevertheless, our Company will strive
towards reaching this milestone.

Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC (GILMORE TOWER) project proposes to be a mixed use development. This milestone involves a huge
Amount of capital and approval by the City of Atlanta Planning Department for permit and construction. The reason GH GL, LLC is planning
This high rise is to put all of our companies and operations under one roof. Raising Capital for this $200,000,000 real estate project will
not be an easy task. As an emerging growth company, proptech and fintech firm encompassing real estate, technology and financial
services, it is Gilmore Homes, Gilmore Loans, LLC goals to CREATE and BUILD Class A, upscale and luxury projects that separates us from
other Crowdfunds and Companies. In the landscape of Residential and Commercial Real Estate, particular Class A, rarely do Companies and
Owners allow Unaccredited Investors to participate. That is one of the advantages of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC Regulation A, Tier
2 Offering, to allow both accredited and unaccredited (limited) investors to participate in this Milestone. Investors will be able, through the
Company Offering, as shareholders, members, and equity partners, to be a part of owning such assets as Gilmore Homes, Gilmore condominiums,
Can You Spare a Dollar? $1.00 Stores, and Gilmore Tower, to name a few of our businesses underpinnings.
The GILMORE TOWER Milestone involves raising capital beginning in July of 2019 up to June or December of 2020 (once a new offering begins
and the old offering ends). (UPDATE: As of June 1, 2020, the project has not raised funds nor has the Offering been qualified by the SEC yet).
Our Company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC needs to raise $20,000,000 to $40,000,000 in equity and selling of securities towards
the $200,000,000 project. As noted, this will not be an easy task and our Company may never raise enough capital to implement. Besides
equity from our Members, other sources of funding include angel investors, hard money, venture capitalist, preferred equity partners,
the United States Government, crowdfunding additional sites such as Start Engine, Equity Net, RealConnex, and many others, the United
States Housing and Urban Development, Development Partners for Commercial and Residential Real Estate, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac,
NBA and NFL Investors, Hip Hop Artists, Social Investments, the Housing Authority (Atlanta), City of Atlanta (Invest Atlanta, the city
Economic Development government agency), State of Georgia, U.S. Commerce Department, and so many other government sources. Another
milestone our Company will try to reach is the retaining of a Capital Markets expert in order to issue a Revenue Bond, etc. There are many
pathways into financing GILMORE TOWER and the operations of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC.
In sum, the Gilmore Tower Milestone, if enough funding equity is raised and funded through a loan or revenue bond, the project will take
about 3 to 4 months (August through December 2019), to design and develop from an architect, the land acquisition, permits, entitlements,
engineering and survey, and construction in January 2020 through October 2021), the anticipated opening. Gilmore Tower will take
two years to complete. So, this milestone will take place from July 2019 through October 2021, pending Acts of God, financing, and
enough equity injections. (UPDATE: Due to various ills plaguing the U.S.A., such as the Coronavirus, unemployment, the economy, etc.,
this project will most likely not take place until the years 2021 through 2025, pending a successful capital raise and capital markets.
59
Note: Our Company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC may never raise enough capital to implement its intended business operations.
Moreover, our Company currently has no financing in place and may never receive financing in borrowing debt for our projects.
Year 2019 (November) Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will continue to follow its Business Plan and Raise Equity via its Milestones.

other Required Documents for SEC Continuation, New Filing for Continuation and other Reports and Filings Required for our Regulation A,
Tier 2 Offering, to raise again from $15,000 to $50,000,000 Milestones, in the next calendar year. This all depends on Qualification for FY 2020.
THE CATEGORIES OF EXPENDITURES FOR GILMORE HOMES GILMORE LOANS, LLC ANTICIPATED OPERATIONS
There are four categories of expenditures: consumption, investment, government, and net exports. Each of these expenditure types represent
the market value of goods and services. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans will have the expenditures of consumption, investment and possibly
government. Net exports will not be an expenditure of our company.
Specifically, our Company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will have both a Capital Expenditure (benefit more than 1 year) and a
Revenue Expenditure (benefit less than 1 year).
An expenditure represents a payment with either cash or credit to purchase goods or services. Investors should know that an expenditure
is recorded at a single point in time (the time of purchase) compared to an expense, which is allocated or accrued over a period of time.
Capital Expenditure is when a Company incurs a capital expenditure and Revenue Expenditure occurs when a Company spends money on
a short term benefit. When Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans occur any expenditures, our firm will provide evidence of the transactions occurring
to both our Members and Shareholders, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in ongoing reports, and the Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) in our required annual Federal Income Tax Returns as well as State of Georgia returns.
In providing evidence of transactions, our Company will ensure that we have receipts showing proof of purchase for goods and services,
such as the purchase and acquisition of land, for example. Additionally, an invoice from a third party will indicate a request for
payment for goods and services, for which Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC will be obligated to pay, for example the service of an
auditor, attorney, continued fees for Escrow Agent and Transfer Agent, architect design costs and fees, general contractor, etc.
60
Thus, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans will maintain a tight control over our transactions. Our goal is to anticipate profits and
losses while still keeping track of the revenues.
Gilmore Homes, Can You Spare a Dollar? 1.00 Stores and Gilmore Tower, etc., will be our Capital Expenditures. This is because our
company will purchase land, build, and construct the assets with a useful life of more than 1 year (a non current asset). In so doing,
Our Company will incur significant business expansion and acquisitions of our new assets with the hope of generating more revenues
in the long run. Such assets by Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC requires a substantial amount of initial investment and continuous
maintenance after that to keep it fully functional. As a result, our Company will finance the project using both equity and debt. In
regards to our company Revenue Expenditures, this will occur as we fund ongoing operations. When we hire certain third parties such as
an accountant, attorney, architect, engineer, technician, etc., these are considered revenue expenditures.

In conclusion, the goal from the governance of our Business Plan is to sell shares (equity) in our company in order to raise from
$15,000 to $50,000,000 for FY 2019 and FY 2020. Even if Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans can sell 300 to 2,000 shares in the entire year,
raising equity of $15,000 to $100,000 the Company can still be successful. This will allow us to leverage debt to build and construct
1 to 4 single family homes, a $1.00 retail store, and/or 1 to 4 unit apartment building, if we cannot raise the millions we will seek
through this Regulation A, Tier 2 Offering.
LIKELY ALTERNATIVES TO SATISFYING OUR COMPANY CAPITAL NEEDS IN LIGHT OF WORKING CAPITAL DEFICIENCY
The likely alternatives for satisfying our capital needs in light of our company working capital deficiency is to court, as lamented,
angel investors, venture capitalists, preferred equity partners, NBA and NFL players, Hip Hop artists, high net worth individuals, etc.,
who can SEED our company initial capital. Many of these alternatives might not want to purchase shares or stock, but would like to still
make an investment. Additionally, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC may seek out other Crowdfunding Sites and Portals, which to display
our Regulation A, Tier 2 Offering, which is allowed. Many of these alternative sources such as Crowdfunding Sites have hundreds of thousands
of Investors as Members and on their portal websites. Our goal will be to position GH GL, LLC to attract additional capital for our
working capital deficiency. There is also credit and charge cards, business line of credit, startup and seed capital, personal loans,
business loans, equity loans, etc., which can provide us the resources to launch and scale. Then, there are also government programs via
grants, loans, technical assistance, etc., that are also available to help our Company overcome working capital needs and deficiencies.
As our Offering has discussed in the Prospectus, it does not take a lot of capital for small projects such as maybe 1 or 2 (one or two)
single family homes and building a 2,500 sf dollar store. $15,000 will be enough to get started in Building and Creating small scale
projects that does not require millions of dollars. Any amount of leverage will allow our company to pursue working capital in order to
fund our operations and real estate underpinnings. Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC intends to pursue all revenues and resources that
are available in the financial, banking, venture, government, and real estate landscapes to help us start, fund, grow and expand our
company and its potential profits. In sum, in satisfying our company capital needs in light of working capital deficiency, our organizer
and general partner the Hattiesburg University Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non profit charity, who social mission includes affordable housing,
community and economic development, will loan Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC up to $10,000 of working capital to take care of the
immediate capital needs of launching this Regulation A, Tier 2 Offering. Since Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC has limited operations, no
assets, no liabilities, no debts, no revenues and yet to be capitalized, the non profit has agreed to be an alternative to satisfying the
company capital needs since its the charity is a partner and organizer (SEE IRS Document and Georgia Secretary of State Certificate of
Organization).
As noted herein, Hard Money Lenders is also an alternative. With up to $10,000 in equity available, our company, once
qualified by the SEC, can begin courting this alternative source for building our first home. Many lenders, not all, only require 10%.
After the equity injection, GH GL, LLC will have the capital (down payment) needed to begin the process. However, the funds will most likely
be used to launch the Regulation A, Tier 2 and paying the fees associated thereunto. Raising Equity via Investors are the main and first
step in our Business Plan and Investment Objectives. Our Company has to sell stock (interests) in our real estate holding company. Although,
62
there is no guarantee financing or no guarantee that Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will raise enough capital to move forward with its
intended business purposes, we do anticipate some form of equity contributions from both accredited and non accredited investors. All
notwithstanding, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will also take advantage of many federal, state, and local government programs to aid
and assist with our lack of capital deficiency juxtaposed possible private and public partnerships, as far as funding. Such sources our
Company will apply to include, but not limited to, New Markets Tax Credits (NMTC), Tax Allocation District (TAD), Opportunity Zones / QOZ
Qualified Opportunity Zones, Transit Oriented Development (TOD), Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Pace / CPace Commercial Property Assessment,
SMART, GREEN, LEED, CleanTech, ENERGY STAR, FHA 221(d)(4), HUD 223(F) Pilot, Private Related Investments, Grants through our
general partner and organizer the Hattiesburg University Foundation, to partake in fundraising and grants for affordable housing, community and
economic development, Investment Banks, revenue bonds, venture capitalists, established Crowdfunding Sites and Portals, angel investors as
noted, etc.
In conclusion, there are so many paths to likely alternatives for satisfying our capital needs in light of our company working capital
deficiency as outlined herein.
Note: As discussed, no matter the Company ambitions, our small business may never raise enough capital to implement its operations.
Moreover, there is currently no financing in place and there is no guarantee that our company will ever receiving financing.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will allow our African American community and other minority and general communities
(we do not discriminate nor will we ever) to own an equity stake in assets that we acquire, build, develop, establish, etc., including
assets develop in their own respective communities around the US in select markets. We call this our Stakeholders Cultural, Historical
and Financial Impactful Roots Investments. Many citizens in the United States have a vested interest, including circulating the Billions
of dollars that flow outside of the community, unto the community, and this Offering and platform will allow such so that our community
can reflect on our roots: past, present, and future.
The Company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC, as a proptech and fintech, emerging growth company, overall strategy is to purchase
raw land and occupied land, in case of non operating, old, abandon and dilapidated residential and commercial properties in urban areas
around the United States, tear them down, and build single family homes, multifamily apartments, condominiums, retail stores and restaurants,
hotels, regional shopping centers and malls, neighborhood centers, other residential and commercial, hotels, low rise, midrise and
high rise development facilities, establishing businesses such as Can You Spare A Dollar? $1.00 Store and building a chain of dollar
stores around the nation, single family homes subdivisions, etc., for lease and for sale (to sell, only in homes and condominiums).
All of our business underpinnings are for profit and shareholder value to our stakeholders. We do not nor will not rehab, flip, fix or flop
such properties and developments nor invest in any other company or projects. All of our developments will be startup and ground-up,
newly constructed buildings.

The Manager, Michael L. Gilmore Development Co., and Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will exclusively manage the Company.
(Disclosure) Please note that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations.
Moreover, our Company currently has no financing in place and may never receive financing and or construction borrowing.
Although we are currently searching for land, and land with old and abandon properties on it, juxtaposed looking at other funding
sources, we expect to finish and submit this Form 1 A on May 24 or 31, 2019 (or by June 30, 2020 update) after working on it for five years
from December 2015 to June 2020 with no solicitation, operating history, or assets. After extensive research and reviews, we decided to launch
A Regulation A, Tier 2 Offering to open up investment opportunities to both nonaccredited (limited) and accredited investors, instead of the
Michael L. Gilmore Development Co., our other exclusive 506 Regulation D Offering (which never raise capital or pursued capital since its
formation of January 9, 2006, still in business, due to lack of interest and lack of non advertisement or solicitation). Regulation A has
changed the game and equal the playing field opening up opportunities to the general public via investing in companies and projects like
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will not be aggressive in our purchases, development, and business efforts until we are qualified
by the SEC juxtaposed until we raise the capital from this Offering. We expect that we will be finished with the process of qualification
by May 31, 2020 and commence our fundraising in June or July of 2020, or when the SEC rules. Thereafter, we will aggressively search
for properties. We hope that by the fall of 2020 or winter 2021, we will have acquired our first property of land and commence building
(pending on amount raise), our first single family homes, multifamily apartments and/or working on Gilmore Tower, our most ambitious and
largest project, which will cost $200,000,000, which we will leverage $20,000,000 (10%) to $40,000,000 (20%) and commence debt and loan of
$180,000,000 (10%) to $160,000,000. This impact development project and job creator will consist of 50 Stories encompassing 185 retail stores
and restaurants (pending leases and LOI), 270 apartments (affordable, market rate, co living, co sharing, student and workforce housing), 100
all suite boutique hotel rooms with Rolls Royce services, an indoor ice skating rink, movie theater, 1,000 seat performing arts center, office
spaces, and grocery and pharmacy. The project is expected to generate between $10,000,000 to $50,000,000 a year, based on ALL of the
aforementioned implemented including ALL of our businesses and our private label VISA and MasterCard, which will be per annual
membership based of $195.00 a year or ($16.23) a month, with No interests, No fees, No late fees, nor any other fees besides the Annual
Membership Fee for the cards, which we hope to enroll 255,000 consumers x $195.00 = $49,725,000 minus transactions fees, bank fees,
64
Visa and MasterCard fees, etc., which will Net, after expenses of $19,725,000, $30,000,000. Consumers will have from 1 month to 12 months
to pay off. At the end of the FY, consumers must not have a balance, in order to renew fee for another year, which must be paid. This falls under
our proptech and fintech (specifically) operations (future). The purpose is to allow consumers to spend, visit, shop, stay, live, and work
at the facilities including our members to receive discounts at the facilities, which all are real estate related and relates to our business plan.
Note: The following development is for illustration only; there is no guarantee we will raise funds or the capital necessary to
implement (the above) real estate project including financing, for there is no current borrowing in place and we may never receive financing.
Acquisition of abandon properties, land, development, and businesses establishments will depend heavily and highly on our funding,
the availability of those funds, the availability of properties (land) that meet our investment criteria and the size of such underpinnings
to be acquired. As we search for properties (particular land), we intend to expend capital in accordance with our Use of Proceeds.
If we raise the minimum amount of $15,000, we will incur expenses related with the operation of the Company and the continuing
expenses related to being a reporting company under the requirements of Tier 2, Regular A. To finish this Form 1 A, we believe we will need
a minimum of $1,000 to $5,000 up to $15,000 (300 shares, per 10 a share at $50 per, totaling $500) generating $15,000. Depending on how much
capital we raise, will depend on how much capital we will need for working capital and professional costs, services, and fees. Our Manager
believes that if we only raise the minimum amount, very little will be needed for working capital. However, the more money is raised,
the more resources will be needed in order to run the Company effectively and thus more working capital will be needed. Our Manager is
committed to raising and providing the $10,000 for the completion of this Form 1 A, and thereafter, unless we are able to raise
a minimal amount through this Offering. This commitment is not in writing. When the Manager raise and provides such capital it will most
likely be in the form of purchasing interests in the Company or providing equity. Such terms and conditions have not been totally agreed to yet.
Note: Since 2015 up to 2019, our cash on hand of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is ($10,405) including as of June 2020. Our cash balance
is somewhat limited to fund our advance levels of operations for any period of time. Thus, we may utilize further contributions of asset manager
and CEO Michael Gilmore, who can provide from $1,000 to no more than $10,000 in credit via his credit cards, cash advances, and personal
income. Additionally, the Hattiesburg University Foundation, a small affiliated 501(c)(3) non profit, tax exempt charity [EIN: 75 3156344],
whose revenues are $50,000 per annum or less, can provide funds up to $10,000, after Board of Directors approval via its impactful social
investments initiatives in education, affordable housing, and community development. The Hattiesburg University Foundation at its discretion
has informally agreed to advance funds as allowed to pay for offering costs, filing fees, and professional fees including Michael Gilmore
as lamented. However, the H.U. Foundation has no formal commitment, arrangement, or legal obligation to advance loan funds to the company,
which we must pay back. In order to implement our plan of operations as outlined above for the next twelve month period, we will do our best
to keep costs low, adhere to costs, borrow, and raise wisely, etc., which the $10,000 or more will allow us to scale operations, issue Class A
Interests certificates, advertise, and operate secured website appertaining to this Regulation A+, Tier II, Form 1A filing and implementation.
With Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC being an emerging growth company, although we have no company assets, income and no checking and savings business accounts nor business charge/credit cards yet, including our limited operating history from 2015 to 2019, we will need
additional funding and financing, etc. Moreover, long term financing beyond the minimum and maximum amount of this Offering will be required
65
to fully implement our business plan. The exact amount of funding will depend on funding required and raised for full implementation of our
business plan. Our expansion will include more residential and commercial facilities and properties, hiring employees and managers, developing
a loyal customers and stakeholders base and growing profitable revenues juxtaposed our growing emerging businesses. Although our balance
sheet is low, we do believe we will raise much needed capital through our Offering but not guaranteed. Moreover, we will NEVER cease
operations, but may suspend operations until we are able to raise capital during the 12 month period or afterwards.

Climate
Upon the latest re amendment to this Offering, the world and the United States have been affected by a deadly disease that has
devastated and forever changed our health care, well being and financial health. The Coronavirus has killed, according to the latest
statistics as of June 2020, over 102,000 deaths and over 1,740,000+ total cases and counting (Center for Disease Control; John Hopkins 2020).
This current climate greatly affect Crowdfunding, Fundraising and Regulation A equity raises. More than 30,000,000 people have filed
for unemployment, and the CARES Act by the U.S. Congress has injected over $2 Trillion to the USA economy helping small businesses.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will be in an uphill battle as a going concern, startup proptech, fintech, and consumertech, emerging
growth company trying to raise $50,000,000 in this current health and financial climate. However, as a company, we are up to the challenge.
Creating jobs, businesses, and developments by Americans for Americans is of the upmost important to our Mission, Business Plan and
Benchmarks, as echoed throughout this prospectus. Both accredited and non accredited investors should rest assured that our company
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will adhere to all federal, state, and local regulations, the SEC, the IRS, and the CDC guidelines when
we raise money and prayfully build our projects and portfolio companies as a startup. Moreover, Americans as consumers to our underpinnings,
will be beneficial and valuable to us further as a company as we work to ease the pain, suffering and toll in creating jobs, communities and
opportunities.
Credit
The Company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC may receive advance funds with responsibility to pay back with no commitments and
approvals at this time to further launch up GH GL, LLC operations, website, offering, advertising, and solicitations, etc. This will be provided
as credit, by Manager Michael Gilmore from $1,000 to $5,000 up to $10,000 in crucial stages by the advancement of credit card debt,
cash advances, fund raising (not affiliated with this Offering until qualified) and personal income. Additionally, the Hattiesburg University
Foundation, may fund up to $10,000 in equity, a loan with interest, via its education, affordable housing, and community development,
social investment impact initiatives, as stated earlier. Therefore, the needed initial $10,000 in deferred offering costs can be
raised, where applicable and feasible, to support this Regulation A, Tier 2, 1 A application, offering and implementation including 6 months
66
and 12 months ongoing reporting requirements.
Capital Raising
As noted in this Circular Offering, our proptech, fintech and consumertech company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC hopes to
raise $50,000,000 in this Offering with a minimum of $15,000 in funds raised (if not raised, investors funds will promptly be returned).
If we are successful in raising the minimum amount of this Offering, we believe that such funds will be sufficient to fund our
expenses over the next twelve months (12 months) which we currently estimate to be $10,000 (more or less) that will be financed by our
manager and the foundation (per approval) in the event we raise less than $1,000,000. Although we intend on identifying residential
and commercial land properties, developing a construction pipeline, and establishing our businesses with our proceeds, there is no
guarantee that we will acquire or start such investments. The growth will depend highly on our capital funding, the availability of those funds,
investment criteria, the availability of properties and land, etc. Upon the qualification of the Form 1 A, the Company plans to pursue its
investment strategy of single family homes, land, multifamily, commercial, and particular GILMORE TOWER (as explained earlier in this Circular
Offering).
There can be no assurance of the Company ability to do so or that additional capital will be available to the Company. If so, the
Company investment objective of acquiring such residential and commercial underpinnings as noted will be adversely affected and the
Company may not be able to peruse any opportunity if it is unable to finance and leverage such opportunities. The Company currently has
no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person, company, organization, or foundation (except explained earlier in relations
to our charity, but still no formal agreement or arrangement, just a potential source) to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit
or any other sources. Since the Company has no such funding or capital plans currently in effect, its inability to raise funds for the above
purposes will have a severe negative impact on its ability to remain a viable company.
Note: Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough money to fund its intended business operations. Moreover, there is currently
no funding in place and there is no guarantee that our Company will be approved for borrowing, financing our construction to permanent loans
for our real estate projects and businesses.

MISSION

by empowering consumers through real estate, technology, and financial services exemplifying par excellent customer service and ethics
offering upscale, high quality products, goods and services, as a proptech and fintech, holding firm.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND OBJECTIVES
Note: (Amended) Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations.
As noted, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC does not currently generate any revenues nor have any real properties, assets nor
liabilities. Moreover, we do not lease or own any real property as a business. Although we now have a company website as indicated above
(see the internet address in offering), we have now developed an advance, security protective website for our company, operations and
Regulation A, 1 A, Tier 2 offering. The new URL will also contain the Final Offering Circular as well as the SEC and EDGAR.
As an emerging growth company, we are offering the Preferred Interests herein on a minimum/maximum basis. The Company will raise a
minimum of $15,000 hopefully using proceeds from the Offering or prior to offering to purchase land and build our first 1 to 4 or 5 to 10 units,
multifamily apartments or single family residences. The company is looking at ventures, angels, private equity, and hard money / asset based
loans, prior to offering, until approved and qualified by the SEC. The goal is to get a few properties built and operating cash flow. However,
with limited down payments and equity unavailable, it might be difficult. In regards to our business offering, we expect to use the offering to
pay for land, improvements and building additional projects and developments, based on a successful capital raise.
In Atlanta, Georgia and throughout the United States, there is an opportunity to create, build and operate a successful real estate
investment corporation. The Manager Michael Gilmore has recognized this opportunity, created the company, and after a five year delay since
73
the company was founded in 2015 and establishes as a LLC in the State of Georgia in 2018, has decided to go the route of finally creating a
Regulation A, Tier 2 Offering. The Company intends to provide new real estate investment opportunities, property development and management,
and emerging, startup businesses (real estate related) to investors interested in achieving financial success by taking advantage of the real
estate market across the country, but specifically in urban and opportunity zone areas and communities around the United States. Because of
opportunity zones, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans LLC, with the help of our investors and Members, will turn real estate businesses into
profitable opportunities in creating a high return on investments juxtaposed turning blighted communities into vibrant, upscale oasis.
Part of our company objectives is to seek out urban neighborhoods throughout the U.S., which do not have control of the dollars,
the real estate nor the businesses in the community. As a result, many non minorities are taking control and developing the areas, many of whom
do not share the same interests. This leads to displacement and gentrification. Thus, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is one of the solutions.
We will (1) Penetrate the real estate market by providing opportunities to both accredited and non-accredited investors interested in
achieving financial success by taking advantage of real estate opportunities, and (2) Increasing profits or the potential for profits
as allowed by market conditions. Various news mediums report that Atlanta, Georgia is a top 5 market in real estate, business, technology,
and raising venture capital, according to Atlanta Inno, the Atlanta Business Chronicle, the Atlanta Journal and Constitution (AJC) etc.
OUR COMPANY KEYS TO SUCCESS
Controversial Real Estate Topic
Gentrification is one of this 21st Century era, greatest socioeconomic and part racial issues. This issue is so great that it touches
many minorities herein Atlanta, Georgia and around the United States. Here in Atlanta, Georgia, for example, Atlanta is now the nations
4th fastest gentrifying city (Atlanta Business Chronicle, 2020). Despite this gentrified divide, it is Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC
goals to design and develop residential and commercial real estate in these areas, create jobs and businesses in these areas, and to show
communities of color through research and case studies how it is in their benefit to collaborate and partner with White stakeholders
in a public and private partnership. Many communities have been neglected for decades. The community should not get so angry that it
forgets the benefits of how a neighborhood can improve through affordable and market rate multifamily housing, new retail stores and
restaurants, etc. Public and private stakeholders are good for the American economy as well as transforming neighborhoods and lives.
Access
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will share our opportunity with investors around the United States to have new access and to
invest in these types of projects that will give our investors and members high financial and socioeconomic returns. These philosophical
underpinning appertaining to business will make investors with a social impact mission feel good about investing and their desire to help
transform and revitalize an area, as long as it provides an excellent social and financial return on investment and benefit.
Measurable and Quantifiable Success
74
Our Company intends to identify and thus measure projects that benefit investors and communities around the nation.
These quantifiable metrics will be based on projects built and created, businesses built and created, jobs provided and created, and
revenues generated and profitable. Doing so through single family homes, multifamily, condominiums, retail stores and restaurants, shopping
centers, mixed use developments, low and high rises, etc., will give us meaningful attributes that can help demonstrate our keys to success
such as:
* The ability to recognize and define the best course of action;
* The consistent raising the bar for our developments and businesses productivity;
* The overall diligent efforts to regularly lower overall costs, expenses, and liabilities;
* The recruitment of experienced, talented, and qualified stakeholders and consultants;
* The plan to effectively market the highest quality of services of our Company to shareholders
* The ethics and services to work within our leasing scope for retailers, restaurants, and office
tenants, residential and commercial brokers, loan officers, financial advisors, vendors, etc.,
which our Company can secure financing, develop a worthwhile project, and fulfill our needs.
Investment Strategy
Note: Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations.
Our company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is seeking to invest in a diversified array of new development projects and
startup businesses within our portfolio of income producing real estate assets and real estate related assets throughout the United States,
specifically in the Southeast and Southwest with plans to scale to the West, Northeast and Northwest. Initially, the Company intends to build
a few single family homes and small apartments and work on GILMORE TOWER, our beginning large and extensive, expensive project that will
provide the most benefits, reap the most profits, and have the greatest impact on our investors and members juxtaposed the communities we
will serve.
Termination Date of Offering: 12 months, June 1, 2021
Date By Which Minimum Amount Must Be Reached: 6 months, from June 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020
Note: (Amendment) Please be advised that our Company may never raise enough capital to move forward with its intended business operations.
All of our projects will be new, ground up construction. Moreover, all of our projects and acquisitions must meet our investment objectives
and company philosophy. These underpinnings will be achieved by successfully raising and marketing our Regulation A, 1 A, Tier 2 Offerings
and the capital juxtaposed equity thereof.
In doing so, we believe that through our real estate underpinnings, there is an opportunity to create attractive total returns by
employing a strategy of designing, developing, and distributing high yield real estate investments, having quality construction and desirable
locations which can attract quality tenants and financing, which these types of investments are generally located in central business districts
75
or metropolitan cities. We intend to invest in a diverse geography in order to reduce the risk of reliance on a particular market, location
or tenant.
Property Identification, Geographic Scope and Competition
Within the landscape of revitalization throughout American particular urban areas, government agencies, housing authorities,
private developers and companies, both profit and nonprofit businesses, foundations, associations, and organizations, are task with supporting
affordable housing, economic development, community development and revitalization initiatives. Often these initiatives target specific
communities with specific criteria that resurrects or revives distressed neighborhoods. Now, Opportunity Zones Funds are being created to
undertake such. Therefore, the importance of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC Regulation A, Tier 2 Offering is to become well financial
capitalized through our nonaccredited and accredited investors, so that we can protect, preserve, and prosper neglected neighborhoods,
communities and its citizenry through urban renewal and development via our real estate underpinnings, as we face competition. Competition is
great; however, we must plan to impact communities in Atlanta and around the United States with the businesses, services, and developments that
they will need.
Underwriting
Once our Company identifies a subject property (raw land) or (occupied land) with an abandon residential or commercial property,
we will underwrite (purchase) if it meets stringent criteria and guidelines. This real estate process is driven by property valuations,
market feasibility assessments, time on market analysis, construction and development budgets, loan to value limits, projected schedules and
timelines, and projected revenues, expenses, and liabilities (Proforma).
Commencement of Project(s) and Leverage
Once Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC finds a subject property which to develop, after conducting due diligence, negotiating price,
finding the right financial partner, and attracting New Markets Tax Credits (NMTC), HUD, FHA, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Opportunity Zone
funds/QOZ, TOD/Transit Oriented, TAD/Tax Allocation, Housing Authority/LIHTC/Section 8 (in some cases), C-PACE, SMART, GREEN,
ENERGY STAR, LEED, SOLAR and Clean Tech components, tax incentives and financial investments (such as the aforementioned)
in addition to successful underwriting, entitlements, permits, construction contracts and Cities Planning approvals, etc., our emerging growth
and holding company will commence the real estate development projects. With our raised funds, we plan to leverage capital for growth.
As noted, our Company currently has no financing in place and there is no guarantee that we will receive financing. Additionally, our Company
may never raise enough money to move forward with its intended business operations.
For Sale and Rental Housing
A big profit margin of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC will be from our single family homes. The goal is to build around 5,000
76
homes around the United States. Once our in house architect and general contractor teams are in place including hired construction
workers (on a contract basis), we will design, develop, and distribute affordable housing in Atlanta and around the United States.
What will be so unique about Gilmore Homes is our price point and model. All of our homes will be under 900 square feet, the size of many
apartments. We expect to build homes and offer in house financing, which consumers can also use their banks and other financial mortgage
sources. When our company builds our homes, we anticipate the following profits over time: 100 homes @ $100,000 yielding gross of $10,000,000;
500 homes yielding gross of $50,000,000; 1,000 homes yielding gross of $100,000,000 million and 5,000 homes yielding gross of $500,000,000
million. The Company also plans to offer only 5, 10 and 15 year mortgages at 3.0% interest, with 3.5% down. We anticipate a very high demand,
which monthly notes will equal $550 a month, plus interest of $245 totaling $795 making a small, 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2-story, 808 square
feet small home with no garages, all electric, very affordable. In addition, we plan to build the many small homes as continued rental income
going after affordable, making rate, co living, co sharing, student and workforce housing. Our rental homes will lease/rent for $999 per month.
None of our housing stock will be over $1,000 as notes, leases, rentals, or purchases. All Gilmore starter homes will be priced at $99,900.
In sum, we expect that many of our Gilmore Homes that we sell will have outside down payment assistance and/or gap funding from
participating government housing agencies and authorities. We also will generate a waiting list for our new homes and provide reports to
our members, investors, and stakeholders on a quarterly and/or yearly basis including required, ongoing reports with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

JumpStart Our Business Startups Act in concert with this Regulation A Offering will allow our emerging growth company to create businesses,
jobs and opportunities around the nation. Moreover, our Company will be in a position, pending a successful capital raise, to impact
citizenry and community with a mission driven social focus. Consequently, we will aid/assist in making America neighborhoods (Great Again)
through real estate, technology, consumer goods and financial services as a proptech, fintech, and consumer tech, emerging growth, small business holding company.
Why Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC? Why Choose Our Regulation A Offering? And, Why Invest In Our Businesses and Projects?
There are real estate companies and there are real estate companies, and then, there is...well...The Real Estate Company, Gilmore Homes
Gilmore Loans LLC, an emerging growth company. When you choose us and invest with us, you will know why we do what we do. We are a
mission driven, social impact proptech and fintech company that likes results, performance, and profits. Thus, we aim to create value
for our members, stakeholders and investors through our Regulation A, Tier 2 Offering.
In any business venture, there are inherent risks. Moreover, those inherent risks carry both advantages and disadvantages.
When manager Gilmore started the Company and prepared the Offering, he wanted to attract both nonaccredited and accredited investors,
who can not only tolerate risks, but who can see the advantages that allow real estate emerging growth companies to overcome in spite of
the disadvantages. Thus, there are several key competitive advantages inherent to the Manager approach that significantly mitigate any
potential risk and facilitate a profitable venture. While the below list is not exhaustive nor all inclusive, exclusive, the following are
but a few of the competitive, market risk mitigating advantages:
(1). There is an increase demand for more affordable housing and market rate housing coupled by an already significant shortage of the
product as real estate prices and properties continue to rise.
(2). This demand for affordable and market rate housing is further compounded and artificially increased by the fact that there are
numerous government rental and home ownership programs available to assist individuals and families in securing housing, which they
otherwise could not afford.
(3). With this demands come an array of capital available. For example, according to Forbes, Real Estate Technology (or proptech)
is quickly becoming its own category in startup world. New VC firms have raised hundreds of millions of dollars to invest solely in
real estate tech. Top traditional VCs made huge bets on proptech companies. Some of the world largest landlords have built
venture capital arms to get in on the action. In 2010, the total investment in real estate technology was estimated to be $33 million.
In 2017, over $5 Billion was raised (Forbes, Perry, 2018).
(4). In many cases and through our Offering, we may can attract venture capital funding via real estate, advancing the route of
accredited investing, allowing us to raise and sell our securities for the maximum amount allowed such as $50,000,000,
79
GH-GL, LLC goal, plan and strategy.
(5). With local, state, and the federal government agencies directly involved in the revitalization efforts, funding, and investments,
timelines are often expedited in terms of permitting, site inspections, etc. Additionally, these companies also bring equity and capital
to the table.
(6). GAP and BRIDGE funding and other such as private equity, hard money, and angels are also available in the capital stack.
With GAP funding, acting as a form of insurance against loss, it is available from many funding sources and local housing authorities for
development and businesses startup, ensuring that any potential loss in the transaction is offset.
(7). Significant community support and outreach is associated with the Manager revitalization activities, bringing in additional exposure,
revenues and advertising, which will attract media attention.
(8). Both government housing agencies and non profit NGOs have waiting lists of qualified buyers and qualified tenants for our
Gilmore housing stock as purchasers and renters.
(9). Our company will utilize many commercial and residential brokers for our mixed use developments, apartments, condos, etc.,
also minimalizing risk and providing advantages.
(10). With the right investments, team, management credentials and collective experiences, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC
will provide an opportunity for all Americans to participate such as accredited investors (with a high net worth and income) and for
non accredited investors (for little as $500 dollars), which these everyday Americans, who want to earn extra income, become an owner and/or
partner in something, and create wealth or the possibility of wealth in the process, can live out and reach the American Dream, a dream that
is still possible.
NOTE: As lamented throughout this Offering Circular, our Company may never raise enough money (capital) to move forward with its
intended business operations. Moreover, financing is currently not in place nor is financing guaranteed, which we may never receive.
Due Diligence and Financing
After Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC searches for properties (land) and identifies the location zone for Residential or Commercial,
we will secure the necessary financing with the help of our capital raise, sign a contract, and place an escrow deposit to be held with
the designated escrow agent. The company will take the minimum time necessary to complete all due diligence to the properties we acquire
and build upon including: site inspection, site improvements, reviewing future applicants and leases, qualifying applicants, obtaining LOI for
retailers and restaurants for our new shopping centers, reviewing projected income and expenses and preparing documentation for the SEC,
our investors, members, and stakeholders.
80
In doing so, our Company will position itself for favorable financing and begin the process of designing, developing, and distributing
real estate, impacting urban areas, with quick exit strategy for debt and holding our assets for the long term, as a holding company.
TAX TREATMENT OF COMPANY AND ITS GROWTH SUBSIDIARIES
The following is a summary of certain relevant federal income tax considerations resulting from an investment in the Company,
but does not purport to cover all of the potential tax considerations applicable to any specific purchaser. Prospective investors are urged
to consult with and rely upon their own tax advisors for advice on these and other tax matters with specific reference to their own tax
situation and potential changes in applicable law.
Taxation of Undistributed Fund Income (Individual Investor)
Under the laws pertaining to federal income taxation of Partnerships, no federal income tax is paid by the Company as an entity.
Each individual Member reports on his or her federal income tax return, for his/her distribute share of Fund income, gains, losses,
deductions and credits, whether or not any actual distribution is made to such Member during a taxable year. Each individual Member may
deduct his/her distribute share of Fund losses, if any, to the extent of the tax basis of his Interests at the end of the Company year in
which the losses occurred. The characterization of an item of profit or loss will usually be the same for the Member as it was for the Company.
Since individual Members will be required to include Fund income in their personal income without regard to whether there are distributions
of Fund income, such investors may become liable for federal and state income taxes on Fund income even though they have received no cash
distributions from the Company with which to pay such taxes.
Tax Returns
Annually, the Company will provide the Members sufficient information from the Company informational tax return for such
persons to prepare their individual federal, state, and local tax returns. The Company informational tax returns will be prepared
by certified public accountants selected by Manager Gilmore.
Unrelated Business Taxable Income
Interests may be offered and sold to certain tax exempt entities (such as qualified pension or profit sharing plans) that
otherwise meet the investor suitability standards described elsewhere in this Offering Circular (See Investor Suitability Standards).
Such tax exempt entities generally do not pay federal income taxes on their income unless they are engaged in business which generates
unrelated business taxable income, as the term is defined by Section 512(a)(1) of the Code.
Under the Code, tax exempt purchasers of Interests may be deemed to be engaged in an unrelated trade or business by reason of rental
or capital gains income earned by the Company Although rental and capital gains income (which will constitute the primary sources of
81
Fund income) ordinarily do not constitute unrelated business taxable income, this exclusion does not apply to the extent of interest income,
which is derived from debt financed property.
To increase Fund profits or increase Fund liquidity, the Manager may borrow funds in order to develop, build and acquire properties.
This leveraging of the Company new property portfolio will constitute an investment in debt financed property, which will be unrelated
business income taxable to ERISA Plans. Unrelated business income is taxable only to the extent such income from all sources exceeds
$1,000 per year. The resulting tax, known as UBIT or Unrelated Business Income Tax is imposed based on the income tax brackets that
apply to trusts. Such brackets are high, and can quickly approach 0% (before taking state and local income taxes into account) on fairly
small amounts of income (i.e. net income over $12,400). The remainder of a tax exempt investors income will continue to be exempt from
federal income taxes to the extent it complies with other applicable provisions of law, and the mere receipt of unrelated business income
will not otherwise affect the qualification of an IRA or ERISA plan under the Code. The Manager does anticipate that the Company will earn
income, based on its acquisition of leveraged rental properties (where applicable) that might be treated as UBIT and therefore subject to
UBIT.
The trustee of any trust that purchases Interests in the Company should consult with his tax advisors regarding the requirements
for exemption from federal income taxation and the consequences of failing to meet such requirements, in addition to carefully considering
his fiduciary responsibilities with respect to such matters as investment diversification and the prudence of particular investments.

GILMORE LOANS, LLC INTERESTS AND EQUITIES ISSUING

As noted in our Company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC Operating Agreement, Section 11.3, No member may voluntarily, involuntarily, or
by operation of law assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of (collectively transfer) all or part of its Interests (stock and equity)
in the Company, except as is specifically permitted by this Agreement or authorized by the Manager. Any Voluntary Transfer made in violation of
this Article shall be void and of no legal effect. Further, in no event shall any Voluntary Transfer be made within one (1) year of the initial sale of
the Interests proposed for transfer unless the Transferor provides a letter from an attorney, acceptable to the Manager, stating that in the opinion of
such attorney, the proposed transfer is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and under all applicable state securities laws or is other
wise complaint with rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. The Manager is legally obligate to refuse to honor any transfer made in violation of
this provision. (See Exhibit C, Operating Agreement).
For clarification and definition, A secondary market is a marketplace where already issued securities, both shares and debt, can be brought and sold
by the investors. So, it is a market where investors buy securities from other investors, and not from the issuing company. Our position is clear.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is a direct issuer and our escrow and transfer agent will handle our 1,000,000 shares of stock, interests to the
general public.
Investors should note, primarily nonaccredited investors, when a company issues its securities for the time, it does in in the primary market.
After the IPO (Initial Public Offering), those securities get available for trade in the secondary market. Stock markets such as the New York
Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ are examples of the secondary markets. Secondary markets also face heavy regulations from the government as
they are a vital source of capital formation and liquidity for the companies and the investors. High regulations ensure the safety of the investors
money.
As a company, at all times, we will be transparent in every segment of our business. Investors in Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC are
required to hold their investment (stock) for 1 year (12 months). Moreover, they are prohibited from selling shares, interests, stocks, etc.,
to other investors, the secondary market. All sale of stock will come from the Issuing Company Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans.
Our mandatory arbitration provision, compliance with federal securities laws, and SEC rules and regulations, specifically clarifies that this provision
applies to purchasers in secondary markets. In sum, the Securities Act was passed to prevent fraud and the lack of information in the initial offer or
sale of securities.
The Act was also enacted to provide investors with express rights of action as delineated in subsection 12(2). The Exchange Act was passed
with these same purposes in mind; however, the Exchange Act regulates the trading of securities in the secondary market, the exchanges and
over the counter markets. Additionally, it serves to prevent fraud and manipulation in these markets. Unlike the Securities Act, the Exchange Act
has no similar express private cause of action similar to subsection 12(2). Rather, it contains subsection 10(b), a general antifraud provision,
which is judicially implied private cause of action. Both federal securities laws also provide specifically for the manner in which disputes
are to be decided. They each require a judicial forum. The Securities Act empowers federal and state courts with concurrent jurisdiction. The
Exchange Act, on the other hand, empowers the federal courts with exclusive jurisdiction.
Profits and Losses (Amended)
Losses for any fiscal year shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their positive Capital Account balances, until the
95
balance of each Capital Account equals zero. Thereafter, all loses shall be allocated in accordance to each Members respective Percentage
Interest in the Company. Profits will first be allocated pro rata to the Members in accordance with the amount of Losses previously allocated
if such previous Losses were not offset by Profits. Thereafter, Profits shall be allocated in accordance with actual distributions of
Preferred Returns, and then Profits shall be allocated to the Members (in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests) and
to the Manager.
Operating Cash Distributions (Amended)
Except as provided elsewhere in the Operating Agreement, Operating Cash Flow of the Company shall be distributed to the Members
monthly, so long as the Manager determines it is available for distribution, in the following order:
First, to the Members, pro rata in accordance with their percentage interests in the Company as defined in the Operating Agreement
Percentage Interests), until all Members have received a cumulative, non-compounded preferred return per annum on their Capital
Contributions.
Second, percent to the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, and a percent to the Manager and
CEO.
Note: Distributions are not assured.
(Amended)
DEFINITIONS
Meanings of Operating Cash Flow and Non Compounded Preferred Return
Operating Cash Flow as defined by Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC means the amount of cash generated by our regular operating
activities by our small business in a specific time period. Our Operating Cash Flow (OCF) begins with our net income. It is a
measure of our company liquidity and its ability to meet short term obligations as well as fund operations of the business.
The Operating Cash Flow of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is important because our cash flow indicates the immediate health
of our company. Moreover, our cash flow is an important factor that helps determine our ability to pay its current expenses as well
distributions to our shareholders (members).
Non Compounded Preferred Return as defined by Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC. First, our company defines preferred return as a
mechanism for measuring a negotiated level of cash flow payment due to our equity partners (our members and stakeholders) in a real
estate transaction. Our preferred return originates as way for our Company to: (a) reward the equity, cash investor for its transaction,
and (b) to signal to the investor (members) that the transactions performance will hopefully achieve and exceed the level of the
96
preferred return. Thus our returns to the Investor (members) will be percentage based.
By Non Compounded (compounded meaning the preferred return periodic growth amount, the interest accrual) is calculated off of the invested
capital account balance plus all previously earned but unpaid accrual amounts) and Non Cumulative (cumulative meaning all dollars earned
in a period that are not paid out at the end of that period are carried forward to the subsequent period). Thus Non Compounded means that
the Preferred Return will be calculated off of the Invested Capital Account Balance as of the beginning of each period, further meaning
the cumulative annually calculated return with annual payment, with the return measured off of the performance of the the Investors
capital.
Note: Please be advised that Distributions are not assured.
Management Determination of How Funds Are Available for Distribution
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC Cash Available for Distribution is when we have cash on hand that is available to be distributed as
shareholder dividends. The value of such will be calculated by using the funds from Operations (FFO) and subtracting recurring capital
expenditures. These funds will be available for distribution (FAD) when the cash flow is determined and adjusted. Our Company will use
the formula: CAD equals FFO minus RCE,
Where: CAD equals Cash Available for Distribution
FFO equals Funds From Operations
RCE equals Recurring Capital Expenditures
Thus in calculating Cash Available for Distribution minus CAD,
Calculating cash available for distribution is done by subtracting recurring capital expenditures from funds, from operations.
Cash Available for Distribution will be a key metric to assess Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC business strength.

benefiting the public
Note: The Hattiesburg University Foundation is the non profit charity arm, the charity division of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC.
THE HATTIESBURG UNIVERSITY FOUNDATION IMPACT ON ITS FOUNDER, THE FOUNDER BUSINESSES, AND ITS 501(c)(3)
STATUS AND RELATIONSHIP TO CEO
Michael Gilmore, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC is also the Executive Director
and Founder of the Hattiesburg University Foundation, a small 501(c)(3) charity that was founded on July 7, 2003 and exempt status granted on
April 23, 2007.
The mission of the Hattiesburg University Foundation is to Serve humanity through human philanthropy via impacting the benchmarks of education,
affordable housing, community and economic development implementing human kindness.
As a tax exempt organization, the foundation sets out to research, write, and apply for grants to align with its mission of education, housing and
community development. Applying for federal grants, such as to the U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the U.S. Department of
Education (DOE) etc., is a crucial element in getting projects off the ground, particular projects with a social mission. Grants as well as Project
Related Investments and/or Program Related Investments (PRI), which gives billions annually to both non profit and profit companies (pending
criteria) allow charities as well as social enterprises to impact communities that have been overlooked for many decades, with crucial funding
allocated towards Opportunity Zones, New Market Tax Credits, etc.
The Hattiesburg University Foundation, is a small charity, that have receipts of $50,000 or less per annum. From the outset, the charity has remained
small but impactful. The Hattiesburg University Foundation is organized for TAX EXEMPT PURPOSES ONLY. Moreover, the Hattiesburg
University Foundation serves a PUBLIC INTEREST and not a private one. NO part of the 501(c)(3) charity benefits or profits inure founder and
director Michael Gilmore, including its net earnings, income, assets, etc. The Hattiesburg University Foundation does not benefit from any of the
businesses, etc., created, designed, and developed by Founder and CEO Michael Gilmore. Since its founding in 2003 up to the current year of 2019,
celebrating 16 years, the charity is organized and operated for tax exempt purposes and serves a public interest. This public interest is the allocation
of affordable housing and education initiatives. As such, the Hattiesburg University Foundation is lending Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC a
loan (program related investment, PRI) to further its tax exempt purposes by investing in affordable housing and education as lamented. For
example, Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC, when it builds the Gilmore Homes Apartment Communities, etc., will offer English skills, adult
basic education, and adult literacy to its residents as well as the general public. These educational components will be offered in many of GH GL,
LLC mixed use developments and affordable housing stock. The loan that will be given, that impacts the charity public benefit and mission, is to
allow for the establishment of affordable housing through single family homes and multifamily apartments. The charity DOES NOT benefit from the
businesses established by the Founder.
Specifically, the Hattiesburg University Foundation will not purchase shares in the Company although it can legally do so and does not risk losing its
Tax exemption status, which the net earnings does not benefit or inure to benefit any private shareholders or individuals, as outlined by the Internal
Revenue Service.
104
The Hattiesburg University Foundation decided to become an organizer in Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC for tax exempt purposes that benefit
the public interests.
Its investments in any entity is organized specifically for charitable and educational purposes. Around the United States, there are many 501(c)(3)
charities that partake, align, partner, and participate in private public partnerships including foundations and corporations that work together to build
affordable housing, social enterprises, etc. The H.U. Foundation, in keeping with its mission and tax exempt purposes, has aligned with Gilmore
Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC as an organizer to further its outreach and impact through education and affordable housing. The Program Related
Investment (PRI) from the Hattiesburg University Foundation will provide a low-interest, $10,000 loan to Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC to
tackle and participate in affordable housing and education as stated.
The loan must be paid back. One of the tax exempt benefits is applying for government grants, as stated, from HUD, etc. Grant funding allow
projects to go forward.
The H.U. Foundation was also organized to help bring grant funding to projects so that it tax exempt purposes can have a profound impact on the
public good and serves the public interest through affordable housing and creating businesses, social enterprises for job creation, job skills and
training, etc.
Billion Dollar entities like Enterprise Community Partners, the Ford Foundation, Mercy Housing, the Rockefeller Foundation, Local Initiatives
Support Corporation (LISC), and other Community Development Corporations, foundations, small not profits, businesses, developers, etc., benefit
from public private partnerships. In 1986, Congress created the Low Income Housing Tax Credit, which has been the primary source of financing for
more than 90 percent of U.S. affordable housing built (Forbes, Wall Street Journal 2019). Moreover, Section 236 of the 1968 Housing Act,
stipulated that both for profit and nonprofit developers could obtain mortgages covering 90 percent of the development cost (100 percent if the
developer was a nonprofit), as long as they agreed to charge rents that were reasonable for low and moderate income residents. Thus, developers
such as Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC in association with the Hattiesburg University Foundation, its organizer and owner (in affordable
housing and education initiatives) juxtaposed investors receive substantial tax benefits. Additionally, Section 8, a different government program,
provides housing vouchers to millions of families. These vouchers enable households to help pay for market rate rent or affordable rent. Therefore, it
was in the best interest of our small charity the Hattiesburg University Foundation to become an organizer in Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC
to aid and assist in designing and developing affordable housing, which the majority of our housing stock will accept government vouchers (Section
8) and other government subsidized programs to benefit the public interest through our charity tax exempt status and purposes in order to impact
citizens and communities in serving others through human philanthropy, our mantra. Thus, the Hattiesburg University Foundation is the non profit
arm, division of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC, its charity.
In sum, the aforementioned explains how CEO Gilmore, the Founder of Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC impact himself, his businesses and
the Hattiesburg University Foundation, resulting from the the Hattiesburg University Foundations 501(c)(3) status and its relationship to the founder
with the charity impact of being organized and operated for tax exempt purposes. Moreover, this tax exempt purpose serves a public interest and not
a private one.
Furthermore, investments from the foundation to Gilmore Business(s) benefit the public and does NOT benefit or inure to benefit Gilmore in any
way, shape or form.
105
In this private public arrangement as organizer and owner, the Hattiesburg University Foundation will provide affordable housing grants (if and
when received), a small loan (program related investment), expertise, experience, leadership, human and financial capital to Gilmore Homes
Gilmore Loans, LLC to assist in ensuring that low and moderate / middle income Americans benefit from the public interest of affordable housing,
jobs and employment, employment training, education, and literacy, etc. That is the IMPACT on Manager Gilmore: Serving humanity, service

creation of jobs, job training (undertaken also by the Hattiesburg University Foundation, an education component), and social enterprises (businesses

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Gilmore Homes - Gilmore Loans, LLC
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Gilmore Homes - Gilmore Loans, LLC which comprise the Balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related Statement of Operations, Statement of Stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended and the related notes to the financial statements.
Going Concern Uncertainty
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s lack of liquidity and operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examination, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Gilmore Homes - Gilmore Loans, LLC as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

GILMORE HOMES – GILMORE LOANS, LLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION
Nature of Operations and Background —
Gilmore Homes – Gilmore Loans, LLC (“Gilmore” or “the Company”) was founded in the State of Mississippi on December 10, 2015. In July of 2016, the company and chief executive officer Michael Gilmore moved its headquarters and operations to Atlanta, Georgia, for better opportunities, growth, personal and professional development, and entrepreneurship. On July 23, 2018, Gilmore Homes - Gilmore Loans, LLC filed with the State of Georgia its Certificate of Organization as a Domestic, Limited Liability Company.
The Company envisions to design, develop, build, own and manage:
| ● | Single family homes, |
| ● | Multifamily apartments, |
| ● | Condominiums, hotels, and high-rise office buildings, |
| ● | Shopping centers, retail stores, discount retail, and restaurants, |
| ● | Financial institutions, |
| ● | Radio and television stations, |
| ● | Magazine and social medium platforms, and |
| ● | Higher education institutions.
|
Basis of Presentation –
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates –
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Income Taxes –
Gilmore accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
124
ASC 740 provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements. ASC 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents –
Cash and cash equivalents includes all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less as of December 31, 2019. The Company did not have cash equivalents as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Concentration of Risk–
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high quality banking institutions. The Company did not have cash balances in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments –
The Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:
| ● | Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
|
|
|
| ● | Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. |
|
|
|
| ● | Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement. |
The carrying value of cash, accounts payables and accrued expenses approximates their fair values due to their short-term maturities at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Revenue Recognition –
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (ASC 606). To determine revenue recognition for arrangements within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with the customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company is pre-revenue and has no outstanding contracts with customers.
Net Loss Per Share –
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the
125
number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. Due to the Company’s losses in the periods presented, the Company currently has no dilutive securities and as such, basic and diluted loss per share are the same for such periods.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
Gilmore has not yet generated any revenue since inception to date and has sustained operating loss. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had working capital deficit of $1,650 and an accumulated deficit of $1,650. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from a business combination or other operations to meet its obligations and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY PAYABLE
Total related party payables were $1,650 and $50, as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Related party payables consist of bills paid by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer on behalf of the Company. This liability does not accrue interest and is payable on demand.
NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT
Common Stock - Common stock consists of $50 par value, 1,000,000 shares authorized. As of December 31, 2019, there were -0- common shares issued and outstanding.
NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Lease commitment
The Company had no lease commitments as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
NOTE 7 – INCOME TAX
The Company has not recognized an income tax benefit for its operating losses generated based on uncertainties concerning its ability to generate taxable income in future periods.

Investor is needed to do so.
2.1.2 Class B Members
The Manager (or its members and/or their Affiliates) will retain ownership of fifty percent (50%) of the Interests in the Company

Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans | 12
Company Operating Agreement
2.3.2 Cash Capital Contributions
Commitment consists of an obligation of such Member to contribute cash or property to the Company in the future, which obligation has
not yet been discharged, the other Members may require such Member to contribute cash in an amount equal to the product of such
members Percentage Interest multiplied by all monies that in the judgement of the other Members are necessary to enable the Company
to operate its business and maintain its assets and to discharge its costs, expense, obligations, and liabilities; provided, however,
that under no circumstances, shall a Member be obligated under this Section to contribute cash in an amount, in excess of the agreed
values (as stated in the Company records) of such Members Unpaid portion. Nothing contained in this Section is or shall be deemed
to be for the benefit of any Person other than Members and the Company, and no such Person shall under any circumstances have any right

do not elect to participate in the purchase of additional interests, the Company may sell the interests to a third party at a rate
of 1.5 times the value of the original investment. For example, if there is a Capital Call of $50,000 to which a Member is called
to contribute 10%, and the Member fails to contribute, the dilution will actually count towards their Percentage Interests at a rate
of 1.5 times the value and it will instead be attributed to the value of the purchasing Member or third party.

Company Operating Agreement

Note: Please also be advised that Distributions are not assured.
3.4 Third Party Loans
In the event of a failed capital call, or the unavailability of a Manager Advance or Member Loan, the Manager may obtain a loan
and/or credit from one or more third parties as it deems appropriate to further the business objectives of the Company.
Such loan shall be made to the Company on such terms as the Manager deems reasonable and appropriate after taking into account the
urgency and needs for the funds.
Third party loans will be a critical part of our real estate development as an emerging growth company. Based on a successful capital
raise, if any, our Company will participate in borrowing money for our real estate development projects including leveraging our equity.
For example, if the company raises $20,000,000 to $50,000,000 (the maximum) in a successful company raise, that money will be used to
leverage debt financing for Gilmore Tower, a $200,000,000 project.
Even if the Company raises $100,000, that amount will be used to leverage a $1,000,000 construction loan to build small 4 to 10 unit
apartment complexes, up to 10 single family homes and/or the launch of our nationwide chain of $1.00 Stores such as Can You Spare a Dollar?
So, third party loans will be crucial to our real estate projects, developments and startup businesses as an emerging growth proptech
and fintech company.

From and after the date of such closing, whether the sale is made to the Members, the Manager, or to the third party, the Selling
Member shall have no further Interest in the Assets or income of the Company and, as a condition of the sale, the Person(s) or

12.1 Disassociation for Cause
A Member may be disassociated (i.e., expelled) from the Company a) pursuant to a judicial determination, or b) on application by the
Manager, another Member of the same class, for Cause (defined in the bullets below); upon a written finding by the Manager or
applicable judicial body that such Member:
* Engaged in wrongful conduct that adversely and materially affected the Company
business;
* Willfully or personally committed a material breach of this Agreement;
* Engaged in conduct relating to the Company business, which makes it not reasonably
practicable to carry on the business with the Member; or
* Engaged in willful misconduct related to its Membership in the Company.
12.2 Disassociation by Operation of Law

any of the following triggering events:
* Upon Voluntary or Involuntary Transfer of all or part of a Members Economic Interest;

other than a business trust.
12.3 Effect of Disassociation
Immediately on mailing of a notice of Disassociation sent by the Manager to a Members last known address, unless the reason
for Disassociation can be and is cured within sixty (60) days, a Member will cease to be a Member of the Company and shall
henceforth be known as a Disassociated Member. Any successor in Interest who succeeds to a Members Interest by operation of law
(per Article 1.2) shall henceforth be known as an Involuntary Transferee.
Subsequently, the Disassociated Members right to vote or participate in management decisions (as summarized in Article 7.4) will
be automatically terminated. A Disassociated Member (or its legal successor) will continue to receive only the Disassociated
Members Economic Interest in the Company, unless the Disassociated member/Involuntary Transferee elects to sell its Interest
to the Manager or Members (Purchasing Members) or to a third party buyer (Voluntary Transferee) following the procedures
describe in Article 11.5; and/or a Voluntary or Involuntary Transferee seek admission and is approve by the Manager as a
Substitute Member (per Article 11.4).
Until such time, if ever, that the Manager approves the transfer of the entire Disassociated Members Membership Interest to the
Purchasing members or a Substitute Member, the voting interests of the Remaining Members will be proportionately increase as
necessary to absorb the Disassociated Members voting Interests.
If a Members objects to Disassociation, they will be bound to resolve the dispute in accordance with the Internal Dispute
Resolution Procedure described in Article 13, unless the reason for the Disassociation can be resolved within sixty (60) days
to the satisfaction of the Manager, in which
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans | 40
Company Operating Agreement
case their full Membership Interest will be reinstated. If there is no Involuntary Transferee, and no third party buyer is found
and the Manger or remaining Members do not wish to purchase the Disassociated Members Interest, the Disassociated Member will
only be entitled to receive its Economic Interests (no voting rights), indefinitely, until such time as the Company is dissolved.
12.4 Sale and Valuation of a Disassociated members Interest
If no outside buyers can be found and the Disassociated Member still desires to sell its Interest, which the Remaining Members
and/or Manger (Purchasing Members) wish to purchase, the buyout price for the Disassociated Members Interest may be determined
using one of the following methods:
* Negotiated Price: First, if the Purchasing Members or legal representative of the Disassociated
Member can agree on a negotiated price for the Interest, then that price will be used; if not,
* Estimated Market Value Within 12 Months: Second, the Manger may annually determine the
Estimated Market Value of the Company and report it to the Members (per Article 6.3). An
Estimated Market Value calculated by the Manager in any commercially accepted manner
within the last twelve (12) months shall conclusively be used to determine the value of a
Disassociated Members Interest. The purchase price of shall be the product of the Disassociate
members Percentage Interest in the Company and the Estimated Market Value of the
Company.
12.5 Closing
Unless other terms have been agreed between the Disassociated and Purchasing Members, the following terms shall apply to closing of
a Disassociated Members Interest. After determining value (per Article 11.5 or 12.4 above), the Purchasing Members shall give written
notice fixing the time and date for the closing. The closing shall be conducted at the principal office of the Company or other
agreed location on the date not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of such notice, or in the
event of Bankruptcy, any request for an extension by any Bankruptcy Court having jurisdiction.
12.6 Payment for a Disassociated Members Interest
At closing, the Purchasing Members shall pay to the Disassociated Member by certified or bank check an amount equal to the
determined value of the Disassociated Members Interest, or, if such value shall be determined to be zero or another amount
pursuant to an agreement of the Members, shall deliver an executed copy of such agreement or a copy of such appraisal report(s),
or a memorandum of the negotiated value (per Article 11.4 above) as applicable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the option of the Purchasing Members, the purchase price may be paid by the delivery of its
promissory note in the principal amount of the purchase price, bearing interest of six percent (6%), repayable early
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans | 41
Company Operating Agreement
without penalty, in eight (8) equal quarterly installments, or other agreement. Simultaneously therewith the Disassociate member
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Purchasing Members such instruments of conveyance, assignment and releases as shall
be necessary or reasonably desirable to convey all of the right, title and Interest of the Member and the Assets thereof.
Because of the unique and distinct nature of an Interest in the Company, it is agreed that the Purchasing Members damages would
not be readily ascertainable if they elect to purchase the Disassociated Members Interest as aforesaid and the conveyance thereof
were not consummated, and, therefore, in such case the Purchasing Members shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance
in addition to any other remedies that maybe be available to them in law or in equity.
12.7 Transfer of Economic Interest; Rights of an Involuntary Transferee
If the Purchasing Members do not elect to purchase the Interest of a Disassociated Member as provided in Articles 12.4 through 12.6,
or if by operation of law the Economic Interest of the Disassociated Member transfers to an Involuntary Transferee, the Manager shall
hereby be granted power of attorney by the Disassociated Member to execute such documents as may be necessary and requisite to evidence
and cause the transfer only of the Disassociated Members Economic Interest to the Involuntary Transferee, as applicable and appropriate
for the circumstances.
An Involuntary Transferee shall not be deemed a Member until such time if ever, that they seek admission and are approved as a
Substitute Member(s). Until such time, they shall only succeed to the Economic Interest of the Disassociated Member, including the right
to any Distributionsor return of Capital Contributions shall become due per the terms of this Agreement.
Any Distributions that may be due a Disassociated Member shall be held in trust and no Distributions shall be made to
an Involuntary Transferee until it produces and executes such documentation as the Manager deems necessary to evidence the
Transfer of the Disassociated members Economic Interest, and to indemnify the Company and the Manager for any liability related
to making Distributions directly to the holder of the Economic Interest.
Any further assignment of the Disassociated Members Economic or Membership Interest, or any request of an Involuntary Transferee
to succeed to the Disassociated Members full Membership Interest (i.e., to become a Substituted Member in the Company), shall be
subject to approval of the Manager.
13. Internal Dispute Resolution Procedure
Because of the nature of the company is to generate Profits on behalf of its Members, it is imperative that a Members dispute
with the manager and/or other Members is allowed and resolved to diminish the Profits available to other Members or resources necessary to
operate the Company.

Litigation could hamper the diversion of Company Profits to pay attorneys fees or could tie up Company funds necessary for operation of
the Company, impacting the profitability of the investment for all Members. The only way to prevent such needless expense is

agreed in advance or membership in the Company. The Procedure described below requires an aggrieved party to make a series of

party, the Dispute shall be submitted to mediation administered by the AAA in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial

its obligations hereunder shall be allocated to and charged to the Company as an expense of the Company for which the tax

6. Tax Matters Related to Foreign Investors
6.1.1 Non U.S. Investors
The discussion below is applicable solely to Non-U.S. Persons investing directly with the Company.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans, LLC (the Company) will be required to withhold U.S. Federal income tax at the rate of up to
thirty percent (30%), or lower treaty rate, if applicable on a Non U.S. Persons distributive share of any U.S. source
Distributions the Company realizes and certain limited types of U.S. source interest. Withholding generally is not
currently required with respect to gain from the sale of portfolio securities. The Company will, however, be required
to withhold on the amount of gain realize on the disposition of a U.S. real property interest included in a Non U.S.
Persons Distribution at a rate of up to thirty nine percent (39%). Each Non U.S. Person that invests in this Offering
will be required to file a U.S. Federal income tax return reporting such gain. The Gain realized on the sale of all or
any portion of a Membership Interest will, to the extent such gain is attributable to U.S. real property interests,
be subject to U.S. income tax.
The Company will be required to withhold U.S. Federal income tax at the highest rate applicable for any
effectively connected taxable income (as that term is defined by the IRS) allocated to a
Non U.S. Person, and the amount withheld will be available as a credit against the tax shown on such Persons return.
The computation of income effectively connected with the Company may be different from the computation of the
Non U.S. Persons effectively connected income (because, for example, when computing the Companys effectively
connected income, net operating Losses from prior years are not available to offset the Companys current income),
so in any given year the Company may be required to withhold tax with respect to its Non U.S. Person Investors in
excess of their individual Federal income tax liability for the year.
If a Non U.S. Person invests through an entity, it may be subject to the thirty percent (30%) branch profits tax on its
effective connected income. The branch profits tax is a tax on the dividend equivalent amount of a non U.S. corporation
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans | 60
Company Operating Agreement
(which may apply in the case of limited liability company), which is approximately equal to the amount of such Company
earnings and profits attributable to effectively connected income that is not treated as reinvested in the U.S.
The effect of the branch profits tax is to increase the maximum U.S. Federal income tax rate on effectively connected income
from thirty five percent (35%) to over fifty percent (50%). Some U.S. income tax treaties provide exemptions from, or
reduced rates for, the branch profits tax for qualified residents of the treaty country. The branch profits tax may also
apply if a Non U.S. Person claims deductions against their effectively connected income from the Company for interest on
indebtedness of its non U.S. Member.
The Company is authorized to withhold and pay any withholding taxes and treat such withholding as a payment to the Non U.S.
Person if the withholding was required. Such payment will be treated as a Distribution to the extent that the Non U.S.
Person is then entitled to receive a Distribution. To the extent that the aggregate of such payments to a Non U.S.
Person for any period exceeds the Distributions to which they are entitled for such period, the company will notify
the Non U.S. Person as to the amount of such excess and the amount of such excess will be treated as a loan by the
Company to the Non U.S. Person. If a Non U.S. Person owns a Membership Interest directly on the date of death, its
estate could be further subject to U.S. estate tax with respect to such Interest.
6.1.2 Foreign Person Withholding
The Company shall comply with all reporting and withholding requirements imposed with respect to Non U.S. Persons, as
defined in the Code, an any Member that is a Non U.S. Person shall be obligated to contribute to the Company any funds necessary to
enable the Company (to the extent not available out of such Members share of Distributable Cash or Net Proceeds of Capital Transactions)
to satisfy any such withholding obligations. In the event any Member shall fail to contribute to the Company any funds necessary
to enable the Company to satisfy any withholding obligation, the Manager shall have the right to offset against any payments due
and owing to such Member, or its Affiliates, the amounts necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation, or, in the event the
Company shall be required to borrow funds to satisfy any withholding obligation, or, in the event the Company shall be required
to borrow funds to satisfy any withholding obligation by reason of a Members failure to contribute such funds to the Company,
the Manager shall have the right to offset against said Members present and future Distributions, an amount equal to the amount
so borrowed plus the greater of (i) the Company actual cost of borrowing such funds, or (ii) the amount borrowed, multiplied
by fifteen percent (15%).
6.1.3 Non U.S. Taxes
The Company may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by, and the Non U.S. Person might be subject to, taxation and
reporting requirements in non U.S. jurisdictions. It is possible that tax conventions between such countries and the U.S.
(or another jurisdiction in which a Non U.S. Member is a resident) might reduce or eliminate certain of such taxes.
Gilmore Homes Gilmore Loans | 61
Company Operating Agreement
It is also possible that in some cases, if the Non U.S. Person is a taxable Member, it might be entitled to claim U.S. tax credits
or deduction with respect to such taxes, subject to certain limitations under applicable law. The Company will treat any such tax
withheld from or otherwise payable with respect to income allocated to the Company as cash the Company received and will treat
the Non U.S. Person as receiving a payment equal to the portion of such tax that is attributable to it. Similar provisions would
apply in the case of taxes the Company is required to withhold.

1.3 The Subscriber acknowledges receipt of the Offering Circular, all supplements to the Offering Circular, and all other documents
furnished in connection with this transaction by the Issuer (collectively, the Offering Documents).
1.4 The Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of the Interests involves a high degree of risk in that (i) an investment in the Issuer
is highly speculative and only investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the Issuer and
the Interests; (ii) the Interests are being sold pursuant to an exemption under Regulation A issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ACT), but they are not registered under the Act or any State
securities law; (iii) there is only a limited trading market for the Interests, and there is no assurance that a more active one will ever
Gilmore | 3
develop, and thus, the Subscriber may not be able to liquidate his, her or its investment; and (iv) an investor could suffer the loss of his,
her or its entire investment.
1.5 The Subscriber is either a non-accredited investor under Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, which you can purchase no more than: (a) 10% of
the greater of annual income or net worth (for natural persons); or (b) 10% of the greater of annual revenue or net assets at fiscal
year-end (for non-natural persons). OR, the Subscriber is an accredited investor, (natural person) who has earned income that exceeds
$200,000 (or $300,000 together with a spouse) in each of the prior two years, and reasonably expects the same for the current year or has
a net worth over $1 million, either alone or together with a spouse (excluding the value of the person primary residence), as such term(s)
are defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act, and the Subscriber is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in
the Interests OR the purchase price tendered by the Subscriber does not exceed 10% of the greater of the Subscriber annual income or
net worth.
1.6 The Subscriber is not relying on the Issuer or its affiliates or agents with respect to economic considerations involved in the
investment. The Subscriber has relied on the advice of, or has consulted with, only his, her or its Advisors, if any. Each advisor, if any,
is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Interests as such are described in the Offering Circular, and each
Advisor, if any, has disclosed to the Subscriber in writing (a copy of which is annexed to this Subscription Agreement) the specific details
of any and all past, present or future relationships, actual or contemplated, between the Advisor and the Issuer.
1.7 The Subscriber has prior investment experience (including investment in non-listed and non-registered securities), has
(together with his, her or its Advisors, if any) such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Interests and has read and evaluated, or has employed the services of
an investment advisor, attorney or accountant to read and evaluate, all of the documents furnished or made available by the Issuer to the
Subscriber, including the Offering Circular, as well as the merits and risks of such an investment by the Subscriber. The Subscriber
overall commitment to investments, which are not readily marketable, is not disproportionate to the Subscriber net worth, and the
Subscriber investment in the Interests will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive. The Subscriber, if an individual,
has adequate mans of providing for his or her current needs and persona and family contingencies and has no need for liquidity in his or her
investment in the Interests. The Subscriber is financially able to bear the economic risk of this investment, including the ability to
afford holding the Interests for an indefinite period or a complete loss of this investment. If other than an individual, the Subscriber
also represents it has not been organized solely for the purpose of acquiring the Interests.
1.8 The Subscriber acknowledges that any estimates or forward-looking statements or projections included in the Offering Circular were
prepared by the management of the Issuer in Good Faith, but the attainment of any such projections, estimates or forward-looking statements
Gilmore | 4
cannot be guaranteed by the Issuer, its management or its affiliates and should not be relied upon.
1.9 The Subscriber acknowledges that the purchase of the Interests may involve tax consequences to the Subscriber and that the contents
of the Offering Documents do not contain tax advice. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Subscriber must retain his, her or its own
professional Advisors to evaluate the tax and other consequences to the Subscriber of an investment in the Interests. The Subscriber
acknowledges that it is the responsibility of the Subscriber to determine the appropriateness and the merits of a corporate entity to
own the Subscriber Interests and the corporate structure of such entity.
1.10 The Subscriber acknowledges that the offering Circular and the Offering have not been reviewed by the SEC or any state securities
commission, and that no federal or state agency has made any finding or determination regarding the fairness or merits of the Offering or
confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of the Offering Circular. Any representation or misrepresentation to the contrary is a
crime.
1.11 The Subscriber represents, warrants and agrees that the Interests are being purchased for his, her or its own beneficial account
and not with a view toward distribution or resale to others. The Subscriber understands that the Issuer is under no obligation to register
the Interests on his, her or its behalf or to assist them in complying with any exemption from registration under applicable state securities
laws.
1.12 The Subscriber understands that the Interests have not been registered under the Act by reason of a claimed exemption under the
provisions of the Act which depends, in part, upon his, her or its investment intention, The Subscriber realizes that, in the view of
the SEC, a purchase with an intent to sell would represent a purchase with an intent inconsistent with his, her or its representation to
the Issuer, and the SEC might regard such a sale or disposition as a deferred sale, for which such exemption is not available.
The Subscriber does not have any such intentions.
1.13 The Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold the Issuer, its directors, officers and controlling persons and their respective heirs,
representatives, successors and assigns harmless against all liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by them as a result of any
misrepresentation made by the Subscriber herein or as a result of any sale or distribution by the Subscriber in violation of the Act
(including, without limitation, the rules promulgated thereunder), any state securities laws, or the Issuer Certificate of Organization
(Incorporation) and/or Bylaws, as may be amended from time to time.
1.14 The Subscriber understands that the issuer will review and rely on this Subscription Agreement without making any independent
investigation, and it is agreed that the Issuer reserves the unrestricted right to reject or limit any subscription and to withdraw the
Offering at any time.

(FINRA) member firm, the Subscriber must give such firm the notice required by FINRA Conduct Rules, receipt of which must be
acknowledged by such firm on the signature page hereof.

accurate in all respects, and the Subscriber acknowledges that the Issuer will be relying on such information to its possible detriment
in deciding whether the Issuer can sell these securities to the Subscriber without giving rise to the loss of the exemption from
registration under applicable securities laws.
1.21 The Subscriber is unaware of, is in no way relying on, and did not become aware of the offering of Interests through or as a
result of, any form of general solicitation or general advertising including, without limitation, any article, notice, advertisement or

or the Fund which, in its sole determination, are in conflict either with other, instructions received by it or with any provision of this Agreement, it shall be
entitled to hold the Escrow Amounts, the Fund, or a portion thereof, in the Bank Account pending the resolution of such uncertainty to the Escrow Agents sole
satisfaction, by final judgment of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction or otherwise; or the Escrow Agent, at its sole option, may deposit the Fund
(and any other Escrow Amounts that thereafter become part of the Fund) with the Clerk of a court of competent jurisdiction in a proceeding to which all parties
in interest are joined. Upon the deposit by the Escrow Agent of the Fund with the Clerk of any court, the Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all further
obligations and released from all liability hereunder.
e. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted hereunder, or for the misconduct of any employee, agent or attorney appointed by it,
except in the case of willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to consult with counsel of its own choosing and shall not be
Liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel.
f. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility at any time to ascertain whether or not any security interest exists in the Escrow Amounts, the Fund or
any part thereof or to file any statement under the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the Fund or any part thereof.
6. Amendment: Resignation.
a. This Agreement may be altered or amended only with the written consent of the Issuer, the Investors and the Escrow Agent.
b. The Escrow Agent may resign for any reason upon fifteen (15) business days written notice to the Issuer. Should the Escrow Agent resign as herein provided,
it shall not be required to accept any deposit, make any disbursement or otherwise dispose of the Escrow Amounts or the Fund, but its only duty shall be to hold the
Escrow Amounts until they clear the banking system and the Fund for a period of not more than five (5) business days following the effective date of such resignation,
at which time (a) if a successor escrow agent shall have been appointed and written notice thereof (including the name and address of such successor escrow agent)
shall have been given to the resigning Escrow Agent by the Issuer and such successor escrow agent, then the resigning Escrow Agent shall pay over to the successor
escrow agent the Fund, less any portion thereof previously paid out in accordance with this Agreement; or (b) if the resigning Escrow Agent shall not have received
written notice signed by the Issuer and a successor escrow agent, then the resigning Escrow Agent shall promptly refund the amount in the Fund to each prospective
purchaser without interest thereon or deduction therefrom, and the resigning Escrow Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer in writing of its liquidation and
distribution of the Fund; whereupon, in either case, the Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations and released from all liability under this
Agreement. Without limiting the provisions of Section 8 hereof, the resigning Escrow Agent shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Issuer and the Investors
for any actual expenses incurred in connection with its resignation, transfer of the Fund to a successor escrow agent or distribution of the Fund pursuant to
this Section 6.
7. Representations and Warranties. The Issuer hereby represents and warrants to the Escrow Agent that:
a. No party other than the parties hereto and the prospective purchasers have, or shall have, any lien, claim or security interest in the Escrow Amounts
or the Fund or any part thereof.
b. No financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code is on file in any jurisdiction claiming a security interest in or describing
(whether specifically or generally) the Escrow Amounts or the Fund or any part thereof.
c. All of the information contained in the Information Sheet is, as of the date hereof, and will be, at the time of any disbursement of the Fund,
true and correct.
8. Fees and Expenses. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to the Escrow Agent Fees set forth on the Information Sheet, payable as and when stated therein.
In addition, the Issuer and Investors agree to reimburse the Escrow Agent for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, including, but
not limited to, reasonable counsel fees. Upon receipt of any Escrow Amounts, the Escrow Agent shall have a lien upon the Fund to the extent of its fees for
services as Escrow Agent.
9. Indemnification and Contribution.
a. The Issuer and Investors agree to indemnify the Escrow Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents and shareholders (collectively referred to
as the Indemnitees) against, and hold them harmless of and from, any and all loss, liability, cost, damage and expense, including without limitation,
reasonable counsel fees, which the Indemnitees may suffer or incur by reason of any action, claim or proceeding brought against the Indemnitees arising out
of or relating in any way to this Agreement or any transaction to which this Agreement relates, unless such action, claim or proceeding is the result of the
willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Indemnitees.
b. If the indemnification provided for in Section 9(a) is applicable, but for any reason is held to be unavailable, the Issuer and Investors shall contribute
such amounts as are just and equitable to pay, or to reimburse the Indemnitees for, the aggregate of any and all losses, liabilities, costs, damages and expenses,
including counsel fees, actually incurred by the Indemnitees as a result of or in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, claim or
proceeding arising out of or relating in any way to any actions or omissions of the Indemnitors.
c. The provisions of this Article 9 shall survive any termination of this Agreement, whether by disbursement of the Fund, resignation of the Escrow Agent
or otherwise.
10. Governing Law and Assignment. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Texas and shall be binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that any assignment or transfer by any party of its rights under this
Agreement or with respect to the Escrow Amounts or the Fund shall be void as against the Escrow Agent unless (a) written notice thereof shall be given to the
Escrow Agent; and (b) the Escrow Agent shall have consented in writing to such assignment or transfer.
11. Notices. All notices required to be given in connection with this Agreement shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
or by hand delivery with receipt acknowledged, by the Express Mail service offered by the United States Post Office, or by FedEx standard overnight service
or another similar overnight courier service and addressed, if to the Issuer at its respective address set forth on the Information Sheet, and if to the
Escrow Agent, at its address set forth above.
12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable,
the remaining provisions of this Agreement or the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those to which it is held invalid or
unenforceable shall not be affected thereby and shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
13. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts or by separate instruments, and all of such counterparts and instruments
shall constitute one agreement, binding on all of the parties hereto.
14. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes
all prior agreements and understandings (written or oral) of the parties in connection therewith.
