See “Plan of Distribution” for details. The company intends to distribute all offerings of Series Interests in any Series of the company through YSMD, LLC as described in greater detail under “Plan of Distribution.”

 

  (2) Because these are best efforts offerings, the actual public offering amounts, brokerage fees and proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than each total maximum offering set forth above.  We will reimburse the Managing Member for Series offering expenses actually incurred in an amount up to 3% of gross proceeds, which we expect to allocate among all Series, including those created in the future, with commissions allocated directly to the Series Interests being sold in the offering.

 

 

 

 

The minimum subscription per investor is 20 Series 2340 Hilgard Interests at $5 per share ($100) and 4 Series Buttonwood 19-3 Interests at $5.00 per Interest ($20).

 

This offering will terminate at the earlier of (i) the date at which the maximum offering amount of all Series Interests has been sold, (ii) the date at which the offering is earlier terminated by the company, in our Managing Member’s sole discretion or (iii) the date that is three years from this offering being qualified by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission” or “SEC”). At least every 12 months after this offering has been qualified by the SEC the company will file a post-qualification amendment to include the company’s recent financial statements. In addition, the company intends to periodically file a post-qualification amendment to include additional Series Interests to this offering. The company has engaged North Capital Private Securities Corporation as an escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) to hold funds tendered by investors.

THESE SECURITIES ARE OFFERED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION WITH THE COMMISSION; HOWEVER THE COMMISSION HAS NOT MADE AN INDEPENDENT DETERMINATION THAT THE SECURITIES OFFERED ARE EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION.

 

GENERALLY NO SALE MAY BE MADE TO YOU IN THIS OFFERING IF THE AGGREGATE PURCHASE PRICE YOU PAY IS MORE THAN 10% OF THE GREATER OF YOUR ANNUAL INCOME OR NET WORTH. DIFFERENT RULES APPLY TO ACCREDITED INVESTORS AND NON-NATURAL PERSONS. BEFORE MAKING ANY REPRESENTATION THAT YOUR INVESTMENT DOES NOT EXCEED APPLICABLE THRESHOLDS, THE COMPANY ENCOURAGES YOU TO REVIEW RULE 251(d)(2)(i)(C) OF REGULATION A.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

The company is not subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) because the company is not registering its securities under the Exchange Act.  Rather, the company will be subject to the more limited reporting requirements under Regulation A, including the obligation to electronically file:

 

  annual reports (including disclosure relating to our business operations for the preceding two fiscal years, or, if in existence for less than two years, since inception, related party transactions, beneficial ownership of the issuer’s securities, executive officers and directors and certain executive compensation information, management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the issuer’s liquidity, capital resources, and results of operations, and two years of audited financial statements);

 

  semiannual reports (including disclosure primarily relating to the issuer’s interim financial statements and MD&A);  and

 

  current reports for certain material events. 

 

In addition, at any time after completing reporting for the fiscal year in which the company’s offering statement was qualified, if the securities of each class to which this offering statement relates are held of record by fewer than 300 persons and offers or sales are not ongoing, the company may immediately suspend its ongoing reporting obligations under Regulation A.

 

If and when the company becomes subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, as an issuer with less than $1.07 billion in total annual gross revenues during its last fiscal year, it will qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and this status will be significant. An emerging growth company may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, the company:

 

  will not be required to obtain an auditor attestation on its internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

  will not be required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing its compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with its principles and objectives (commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”);

 

  will not be required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from its unit holders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);

 

  will be exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;

 

  may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and

 

  will be eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards.

 

4

 

 

The company intends to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under Section 107 of the JOBS Act. The company’s election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare its financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

 

Under the JOBS Act, the company may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after its initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or such earlier time that the company no longer meets the definition of an emerging growth company. Note that this offering, while a public offering, is not a sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement, since the offering is conducted pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that the company would cease to be an “emerging growth company” if it has more than $1.07 billion in annual revenues, has more than $700 million in market value of its common stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

 

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions are also available to us due to the fact that the company may also qualify, once listed, as a “smaller reporting company” under the Commission’s rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation on their assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

SUMMARY

 

This summary highlights information contained elsewhere and does not contain all of the information that you should consider in making your investment decision. Before investing in the company’s Series Interests, you should carefully read this entire Offering Circular, including the company’s financial statements and related notes. You should also consider, among other information, the matters described under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

 

The Company

 

YSMD LLC, a Delaware series limited liability company formed on February 2, 2022. YSMD, LLC is an investment vehicle which intends to enable investors to own fractional ownership of a specific student rental property, although the company may invest in other types of properties as set out below. This lowers the cost-of-entry and minimizes the time commitment for real estate investing. An investment in the company entitles the investor to the potential economic benefits normally associated with direct property ownership, while requiring no investor involvement in asset or property management.

 

The company intends to establish separate Series for the holding of student housing rental properties to be acquired by the company, although the company may invest in other types of properties as set forth herein. Notably, the debts, liabilities and obligations incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular Series of the company will be enforceable against the assets of the applicable Series only, and not against the assets of the company. In addition, unless otherwise stated in the Designation for any Series, Collab (USA) Capital LLC will manage all Underlying Assets related to the various Series including the sales of property, property rentals, maintenance and insurance.

 

It is not anticipated that any Series would own any assets other than its respective real estate property and associated assets, the reason for which the applicable Series was created (the “Underlying Asset(s)”), plus cash reserves for maintenance, storage, insurance and other expenses pertaining to such Underlying Assets and amounts earned by each Series from the monetization of the Underlying Asset. It is intended that owners of a Series Interest in a Series will only have assets, liabilities, profits and losses pertaining to the specific Underlying Assets owned by that Series, which would include the allocated portion of shared fees, costs and expenses which our Managing Member has allocated to such Series as discussed under “The Company’s Business – Allocations of Expenses.”

 

For example, an investor who acquires Series Interests in Series 2340 Hilgard and in Series Buttonwood 19-3 will only have assets, liabilities, profits and losses pertaining to the properties located at 19 Buttonwood Street #3, Dorchester, MA 02125 (“Buttonwood 19-3”) and 2340 Hilgard Ave, Berkeley, CA 94709 (“2340 Hilgard”), respectively.

 

Collab (USA) Capital LLC will serve as the property manager responsible for managing each Series’ Underlying Assets (the “Property Manager”) as described in the Property Management Agreements between Collab and the respective Series. However, YSMD in its sole discretion, may engage other third-party property managers to manage a Series’ Underlying Assets.

 

Collab (USA) Capital LLC will also serve as the managing member (the “Managing Member”) responsible for the day-to-day management of the company and each Series. Each Series may purchase the property from a third party or from an affiliate of the Managing Member, such as is the case with Series 2340 Hilgard and Series Buttonwood 19-3.

 

Our Series LLC Structure

 

Each property that we acquire will be owned by a separate series of our company that we will establish to acquire that property. As a Delaware series limited liability company, the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular series are segregated and enforceable only against the assets of such series, as provided under Delaware law. This would include contractual obligations under the Property Management Agreement that each Series will enter into with respect to the management of the specific property. This would also include the portion of any shared fees, costs or expenses that have been allocated to the Series, as discussed above and under “The Company’s Business – Allocations of Expenses.”

For ease of understanding the company’s business structure, we have included the organizational chart below:

 

 

 

1 iREAM Technology Co., Ltd. owns all of outstanding interests in Collab (USA) Capital LLC. Edrick Wang and Albert Wang, are the sons of Qian Wang, Collab’s CEO and Chairman, and indirectly own 64.67% of iREAM Technology Co., Ltd. (on a fully-diluted basis).

 

7

 

 

The company has been formed to invest in various real estate assets throughout the United States, with a focus on student housing. The Managing Member intends to initially search for properties located on the East and West coasts, but the company will not limit itself geographically. The company may invest in properties that are income producing in excess of their expenses; in other words, those properties that will produce positive cash flow immediately upon, or soon after, acquisition. The company may also invest in properties that need redevelopment, significant repositioning, or capital investments, known as value-add, and, thus, may not produce positive cash flow until the capital improvements are completed. It is expected that the company will focus on student housing and multi-family properties, but will also, under certain circumstances, consider commercial real estate assets such as self-storage, warehouse and industrial, office, hospitality, and retail properties.

 

Once the Managing Member identifies a property and agrees a price with the sellers, which may be an affiliate or the sole owner of the Managing Member, will enter into a purchase agreement for the property or the entity owning the property. Generally, YSMD expects to assign the contract to the relevant Series for the purchase of a specific property directly by the Series. However, there may be circumstances or timing considerations that result in YSMD or one of its wholly owned subsidiaries acquiring the property directly for further sale to the Series once sufficient funding has been obtained.

 

In cases where the Series purchases the property or the entity owning the property directly from a third party seller, it would use the proceeds of the offering for that Series to purchase the property or the entity owning the property and may finance a portion of the purchase price with mortgage or other third party financing. If the purchase agreement for the property or the entity owning the property does not include a financing condition, or the financing contingency has expired, and the closing for the property occurs prior to the closing of offering, YSMD or an affiliate may provide a loan to the Series, upon the terms described under “The Company’s Business – Intended Business Process” below, to finance all or part of the purchase price of the property or the entity owning the property that would be repaid with the proceeds of the offering. The remaining proceeds of the offering for a Series would be used by the Series first to fund any anticipated renovation costs and furnishing expenses for the property to prepare it for rent, if any, then to pay the sourcing fee to our Managing Member and the remainder held by the Series as operating reserves, depending on the amount raised in the offering for that Series.

 

8

 

 

If YSMD, one of its affiliates or sole owner of the Managing Member purchases the property directly, then, after the relevant Series has obtained sufficient financing, that Series would purchase the property or the entity owning the property for an amount equal to the original purchase price (including closing costs) plus holding costs, renovation costs and furnishing expenses actually incurred by YSMD prior to the sale to the Series. Any remaining proceeds from offering of such Series would be first allocated to pay the sourcing fee and any remaining proceeds of the offering for a Series would be used by the Series first to fund any anticipated renovation costs and furnishing expenses for the property to prepare it for rent, if any, then to pay the sourcing fee to our Managing Member and the remainder held by the Series as operating reserves, depending on the amount raised in the offering for that Series.

 

Distributions

 

We intend to distribute 100% of the Free Cash Flows of a Series, after reimbursing the Managing Member and the Property Manager for expenses incurred on behalf of a Series, plus accrued interest, and creating such reserves as the Managing Member deems necessary. A Series’ net income, and therefore, its Free Cash Flows, will be reduced by the expenses of that Series, including the following fees paid to our Managing Member and Property Manager, unless indicated in the relevant Series Designation or property management agreement:

 

  Property Management Fee: We generally seek to set these fees to be comparable to prevailing market rates for the management of student housing rental properties in the relevant geographic area. Currently these fees amount to 8% of the Gross Receipts of the Series.

 

  Asset Management Fee: A quarterly fee of 0.5% (2% annually) of the Asset Value of the Series.

 

 

Sourcing Fee: Any portion of the sourcing fee for the Series that is not funded by the proceeds of the Series offering and that is booked as an expenses of the Series, at the company and Managing Member’s

discretion. Please see “Use of Proceeds” for the sourcing fee applicable to each specific Series.

 

We determined these fees internally without any independent assessment of comparable market fees. As a result, they may be higher than those available from unaffiliated third parties. After payment of all of the above fees, all other cash expenses and capital expenditures by the Series, it may not generate sufficient revenue to produce any Free Cash Flows or make distribution to investors.

 

Please see below and “Securities Being Offered – Distributions” for a more detailed discussion of the calculation of distributions to investors and the compensation paid to our Managing Member, as well as the defined terms used above.

 

No Series of YSMD has made any distributions to date.

 

Distribution Upon Liquidation of a Series

 

Subject to Article XI of the Operating Agreement and any Series Designation, any amounts available for distribution following the liquidation of a Series, net of any fees, costs and liabilities (as determined by the Managing Member in its sole discretion), shall be applied and distributed as follows:

 

  (a) First, 100% to the Members (pro rata and which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include the Managing Member and its Affiliates if the Managing Member or any Affiliates acquired Interests or received Interests as a Sourcing Fee or otherwise) until the Members have received back 100% of their Capital Contribution; and

 

9

 

 

  (b) Second, 20% to the Managing Member and 80% to the Members (pro rata to their Interests and which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include the Managing Member and its Affiliates if the Managing Member or any Affiliates acquired Interests or received Interests as a Sourcing Fee or otherwise).

 

No Series of YSMD has been liquidated to date.

 

Compensation Paid to our Managing Member

 

Each Series will pay the following fees:

 

Sourcing Fee: If a Series raises the maximum offering amount for that Series, a portion of the proceeds would be paid to our Managing Member as a sourcing fee, which is set forth in the Designation for the relevant Series and discussed under “Use of Proceeds” below. The sourcing fee represents a fee payable in connection with the search and negotiation of the property purchased. Our Managing Member determines this fee and sets the amount to equal up to 5% of the contractual purchase price of the relevant property acquired by the Series (but does not include capital expenditures or repair costs required to renovate and prepare the property for listing and rent, if any). To the extent that a Series raises less than the maximum offering amount resulting in insufficient funds to pay the sourcing fee, the company may choose to expense the balance of the sourcing fee, which would be deducted from revenues generated by the relevant property, or we may increase its investment in the relevant Series Interests to cover the balance of the sourcing fee.

 

Asset Management Fees: On a quarterly basis beginning on the first quarter end date following the initial closing date of the issuance of Series Interests, the Series shall pay the Managing Member an asset management fee, payable quarterly in arrears, equal to 0.5% (2% annualized) of Asset Value as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter.  “Asset Value” at any date means the fair market value of assets in a Series representing the purchase price that a willing buyer having all relevant knowledge would pay a willing seller for such assets in an arm’s length transaction, determined by the Managing Member in its sole discretion. We do not intend to obtain a third party valuation of the assets of each Series to determine “Asset Value.”

 

Property Management Fees: Each Series will pay, monthly, a property management fee to the Property Manager, who is initially is our Managing Member, equal to a percentage (as specified in the relevant Property Management Agreement) of the Gross Receipts received by the Series during the immediately preceding month. “Gross Receipts” means (i) receipts from the short-term or long-term rental of the Underlying Assets; (ii) receipts from rental escalations, late charges and/or cancellation fees (iii) receipts from tenants for reimbursable operating expenses; (iv) receipts from concessions granted or goods or services provided in connection with the Underlying Assets or to the tenants or prospective tenants; (v) other miscellaneous operating receipts; and (vi) proceeds from rent or business interruption insurance, excluding (A) tenants’ security or damage deposits until the same are forfeited by the person making such deposits; (B) property damage insurance proceeds; and (C) any award or payment made by any governmental authority in connection with the exercise of any right of eminent domain. See “The Company’s Business – Property Management Agreements.

 

Renovation Management Fees, If Any: If the Managing Member reasonably determines that capital improvements are required for a Series Property, then such Series  will pay a renovation management fee, as applicable, to the Property Manager equal to 5.5% of the total capital improvement costs. Renovation management includes coordinating and facilitating the planning and the performance of the capital improvement projects.

 

Disposition Fees: Upon the disposition and sale of a Series Property, each Series will be charged a disposition fee equal to 2% of the disposition price. Disposition fees, include but are not limited to, property sale expenses such as brokerage commissions, and title, escrow and closing costs.

 

We and Collab determined these fees internally without any independent assessment of comparable market fees. As a result, they may be higher than those available from unaffiliated third parties.

 

10

 

 

Other Costs and Expenses

 

Each Series will bear all expenses of the applicable Underlying Asset, including fees, costs and expenses attributable to more than one Series and allocated among the relevant Series as discussed above. Because these are best efforts offerings, the actual public offering amounts, brokerage fees and proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than each total maximum offering set forth above. We will reimburse the Managing Member for Series offering expenses actually incurred in an amount up to 3% of gross proceeds.

 

Any fees, costs or expenses that are allocated among multiple Series will be equal, in the aggregate, to the amount actually incurred, without any mark-up. Once allocated, the portion of those fees, costs and expenses will become expenses and liabilities of the relevant Series and we would generally expect them to be paid out of the cash reserves or revenues of that Series in the ordinary course. If a Series does not have sufficient cash reserves and revenues to meet its operating expenses, YSMD, the Managing Member or one of their affiliates may loan funds to a Series to pay such expenses and charge a reasonable rate of interest. Under the Property Management Agreement of each Series, to the extent that the Property Manager of such Series incurs expenses on behalf of that Series, the Series will reimburse the Property Manager for any such expenses together with a reasonable rate of interest.

The Current Offering

 

Securities Being Offered:  

We are offering the number of Series Interests of each Series at a price per Series Interest set forth in the “Series Offering Table” section above. Our Managing Member intends to own a minimum of 5%, although such minimum threshold may be waived or modified by our Managing Member in its sole discretion. Our Managing Member may sell these Series Interests at any time after the applicable closing.

 

Each Series of Series Interests is intended to be a separate Series of our company for purposes of assets and liabilities. See “Securities Being Offered” for further details. The Series Interests will be non-voting except with respect to certain matters set forth in our Amended and Restated Series Limited Liability Company Agreement of YSMD dated August 12, 2022, as amended from time to time (the “Operating Agreement”) including the Series Designation applicable to the Series. The purchase of Series Interests in a Series is an investment only in that Series of our company and not an investment in our company as a whole.

     
Minimum and maximum subscription:   The minimum subscription by an investor is 100 Series Interests and the maximum subscription by any investor is for Series Interests representing 19.9% of the total Series Interests of a particular Series, although such minimum and maximum thresholds may be waived or modified by our Managing Member in its sole discretion. See “Plan of Distribution” for additional information.
     
Use of Proceeds:   Net proceeds from the sale of Series Interests will be used to purchase the relevant Underlying Assets set forth in the “Series Offering Table” above, pay a sourcing fee to Collab, pay the brokerage commission, and to create a maintenance reserve for the applicable Underlying Assets. Our Managing Member initially bears all offering expenses, other than brokerage commissions, on behalf of each Series. See “Use of Proceeds” for further details.

Selected Risks

 

The company’s business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this summary. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

  An investment in an offering constitutes only an investment in that Series offered and not in the company as a whole or any Underlying Assets.

   If YSMD fails to attract and retain Mr. Qian Wang, CEO of YSMD and the Managing Member’s CEO, or its key personnel, the company may not be able to achieve its anticipated level of growth and its business could suffer.

 

  There is competition for time among the various entities sharing the same management team.

 

  Each Series will rely on its Property Manager, Collab, to manage each property.

 

  If we fail to manage our growth, we may not have access sufficient personnel and other resources to operate our business and our results, financial condition and ability to make distributions to investors may suffer.

 

  The company has limited operating history for investors to evaluate.

 

  Possible changes in federal tax laws make it impossible to give certainty to the tax treatment of any Series Interests.

 

  The company’s financial statements include a going concern opinion.

  The underlying value and performance of any real estate asset will fluctuate with general and local economic conditions.

 

  Our results of operations are subject to an annual leasing cycle, short lease-up period, seasonal cash flows, changing university admission and housing policies and other risks inherent in the student housing industry.

 

  Competition and any increased affordability of multi-family homes could limit our ability to lease our apartments or maintain or increase rents, which may materially and adversely affect us, including our financial condition, cash flows, results of operations and growth prospects.  

 

  We face significant competition from university-owned on-campus student housing, from other off-campus student housing properties and from traditional multi-family housing located within close proximity to universities.   

 

13

 

 

  A decline in general economic conditions in the markets in which each property is located or in the United States generally could lead to a decrease lower rental rates in those markets.

 

  Lawsuits may arise between the company and its tenants resulting in lower cash distributions to investors.

 

  The costs of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property or of paying personal injury or other damage claims could reduce the amounts available for distribution to the company’s investors.

 

  Costs associated with complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act may decrease cash available for distributions.

 

  We may incur significant costs complying with other regulations.

 

  Uninsured losses relating to real property or excessively expensive premiums for insurance coverage could reduce the company’s cash flows and the return on investment.

 

  You may not receive Distributions on predictable schedule and may never receive any Distributions.  

 

  Rising expenses could reduce cash flow and funds available for future investments.  

 

  Due to economic conditions, local real estate conditions and competition for properties, the real estate we invest in may not appreciate or may decrease in value

 

  The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and government restrictions adopted in response thereto, could significantly impact the ability of our tenants to pay rent, impede the performance of our properties, and harm our financial condition.

 

  The company may not raise sufficient funds to achieve its business objectives.

RISK FACTORS

 

The SEC requires the company to identify risks that are specific to its business and its financial condition. The company is still subject to all the same risks that all companies in its business, and all companies in the economy, are exposed to. These include risks relating to economic downturns, political and economic events and technological developments (such as cyber-attacks and the ability to prevent those attacks). Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently more risky than more developed companies. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to invest.

 

Risks Relating to the Structure, Operation and Performance of the Company

 

An investment in an offering constitutes only an investment in that Series offered and not in the company as a whole or any Underlying Assets. A purchase of Series Interests in a Series does not constitute an investment in either the company as a whole or any Underlying Assets directly, or in any other Series Interest.  This results in limited voting rights of the investor, which are solely related to a particular Series, and are further limited by the Operating Agreement, of the company, described further herein.  Investors will have limited voting rights. Thus, the Managing Member and the Property Manager retain significant control over the management of the company and the Underlying Assets.

 

Furthermore, because the Series Interests in a Series do not constitute an investment in the company as a whole, holders of the Series Interests in a Series are not expected to receive any economic benefit from, or be subject to the liabilities of, the assets of any other Series.  In addition, the economic interest of a holder in a Series will not be identical to owning a direct undivided interest in any Underlying Assets because, among other things, a Series will be required to pay corporate taxes before distributions are made to the holders, and the Property Manager will receive a fee in respect of its management of the Property.

 

Liability of investors between Series. The company is structured as a Delaware series limited liability company that issues separate Series Interests for specific properties. Each Series will merely be a separate Series and not a separate legal entity. Under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “LLC Act”), if certain conditions (as set forth in Section 18-215(b) of the LLC Act) are met, the liability of investors holding Series Interests in one Series is segregated from the liability of investors holding Series Interests in another Series and the assets of one Series are not available to satisfy the liabilities of other Series.

 

Although this limitation of liability is recognized by the courts of Delaware, there is no guarantee that if challenged in the courts of another U.S. State or a foreign jurisdiction, such courts will uphold a similar interpretation of Delaware corporation law, and in the past certain jurisdictions have not honored such interpretation.

 

If the company’s series limited liability company structure is not respected, then investors may have to share any liabilities of the company with all investors and not just those who hold the same Series Interests as them and account for them separately and otherwise meet the requirements of the LLC Act, it is possible a court could conclude that the methods used did not satisfy Section 18-215(b) of the LLC Act and thus potentially expose the assets of a Series to the liabilities of another Series.  The consequence of this is that investors may have to bear higher than anticipated expenses which would adversely affect the value of their Series Interests or the likelihood of any distributions being made by a particular Series to its investors.

 

In addition, the company is not aware of any court case that has tested the limitations on inter-series liability provided by Section 18-215(b) in federal bankruptcy courts and it is possible that a bankruptcy court could determine that the assets of one Series should be applied to meet the liabilities of the other Series or the liabilities of the company generally where the assets of such other Series or of the company generally are insufficient to meet its liabilities.

 

If any fees, costs and expenses of the company are not allocable to a specific Series, they will be borne proportionately across all of the Series (which may include future Series to be issued).  Although the Managing Member will allocate fees, costs and expenses acting reasonably and in accordance with its allocation policy (see “Description of the Business – Allocations of Expenses” section), there may be situations where it is difficult to allocate fees, costs and expenses to a specific Series and therefore, there is a risk that a Series may bear a proportion of the fees, costs and expenses for a service or product for which another Series received a disproportionately high benefit.

If Collab (USA) Capital LLC, our Managing Member fails to attract and retain Mr. Qian Wang, CEO of YSMD and our Managing Member’s CEO, or its key personnel, the company may not be able to achieve its anticipated level of growth and its business could suffer. The Managing Member’s and the company’s future depends, in part, on Collab’s ability to attract and retain key personnel. Its future also depends on the continued contributions of Mr. Wang. Mr. Wang implemented the company’s strategy to identify and invest in multi-family properties. Mr. Wang is critical to the management of the Managing Member’s and the company’s business and operations and the development of its strategic direction. The loss of the services of Mr. Wang’s would involve significant time and expense and may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of the company’s business objectives.

 

There is competition for time among the various entities sharing the same management team. Currently, Collab (USA) Capital LLC is the Managing Member of YSMD and each Series and is the Property Manager for this Series. YSMD expects to create more Series in the future as additional attractive student rental properties are identified. It is foreseeable that at certain times the various Series will be competing for time from the management team.

 

Each Series will rely on its Property Manager to manage each property. Following the acquisition of any property, the property may be managed by Collab Capital (USA) LLC. In addition, any Property Manager will be entitled to certain fees in exchange for its day-to-day operations of each property. Any compensation arrangements if Collab Capital (USA) LLC serves as the Property Manager, will be determined by YSMD sitting on both sides of the table and will not be an arm’s length transaction.

 

If we fail to manage our growth, we may not have access sufficient personnel and other resources to operate our business and our results, financial condition and ability to make distributions to investors may suffer. We intend to establish additional Series and acquire additional student rental properties in the future. As we do so, we will be increasingly reliant on the resources of YSMD and the Property Manager to manage our properties and our company. Currently, the company has no staff and the Managing Member operates with a small staff of five full time employees and one part time employee and may need to hire additional staff. If its resources are not adequate to manage our properties effectively, our results, financial condition and ability to make distributions to investors may suffer.

 

You will have limited control over changes in our policies and operations, which increases the uncertainty and risks you face as a Member. Our Managing Member determines our major policies, including our policies regarding financing, growth and debt capitalization. Our Managing Member may amend or revise these and other policies without a vote of the Members. Our Managing Member’s broad discretion in setting policies and our Members’ inability to exert control over those policies increases the uncertainty and risks you face as a Member.

 

Our ability to make distributions to our Members is subject to fluctuations in our financial performance, operating results and capital improvement requirements. Currently, our strategy includes paying a distribution at least monthly to investors in the event of positive Free Cash Flow from operation of the Property. In the event of downturns in our operating results, unanticipated capital improvements to the Property, or other factors, we may be unable, or may decide not to pay distributions to our Members. The timing and amount of distributions are the sole discretion of our Managing Member who will consider, among other factors, our financial performance, any debt service obligations, any debt covenants, and capital expenditure requirements. We cannot assure you that we will generate sufficient cash in order to pay distributions.

 

The company has limited operating history for investors to evaluate. The company and this Series were recently formed and have not generated any revenues and have no operating history upon which prospective investors may evaluate their performance. No guarantee can be given that the company or any Series will achieve their investment objectives, the value of any properties will increase or that any Properties will be successfully monetized.

 

16

 

 

Possible changes in federal tax laws make it impossible to give certainty to the tax treatment of any Series Interests. The Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) is subject to change by Congress, and interpretations of the Code may be modified or affected by judicial decisions, by the Treasury Department through changes in regulations and by the Internal Revenue Service through its audit policy, announcements, and published and private rulings. Although significant changes to the tax laws historically have been given prospective application, no assurance can be given that any changes made in that law affecting an investment in any Series of the company would be limited to prospective effect.

 

For instance, prior to effectiveness of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, an exchange of the Series Interests of one Series for another might have been a non-taxable ‘like-kind exchange’ transaction, while transactions would only qualify for that treatment with respect to real property.  Accordingly, the ultimate effect on an investor’s tax situation may be governed by laws, regulations or interpretations of laws or regulations which have not yet been proposed, passed or made, as the case may be.

 

The company’s financial statements include a going concern opinion. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming the company will continue as a going concern. We are newly formed and have not generated revenue from operations. We will require additional capital until revenue from operations are sufficient to cover operational costs. There are no assurances that we will be able to raise capital on acceptable terms.  If we are unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned development and operations, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the company to continue as a going concern.

 

If the company does not successfully dispose of real estate assets, you may have to hold your investment for an indefinite period. The determination of whether to dispose of the Property is entirely at the discretion of the company. Even if the company decides to dispose of such real estate assets, the company cannot guarantee that it will be able to dispose of them at a favorable price to investors.

 

Competition with other parties for real estate investments may reduce the company’s profitability. The company will compete with other entities engaged in real estate investment for the acquisition or sale of properties, including financial institutions, many of which have greater resources than the company. Larger entities may enjoy significant competitive advantages that result from, among other things, a lower cost of capital. Such competition could make it more difficult for the company to obtain future funding, which could affect the company’s growth.

 

Risks Related to the Real Estate Industry

 

Our performance and value are subject to risks associated with real estate assets and with the real estate industry.

 

Our ability to satisfy our financial obligations and make expected distributions to our Members depends on our ability to generate cash revenues in excess of expenses and capital expenditure requirements. Events and conditions generally applicable to owners and operators of real property that are beyond our control may decrease cash available for distribution and the value of the Property. These events include:

 

  general economic conditions;

 

  rising level of interest rates;

 

  local oversupply, increased competition or reduction in demand for student housing;

 

  inability to collect rent from tenants;

 

  vacancies or our inability to rent beds on favorable terms;

 

  inability to finance property development on favorable terms;

 

  increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, utilities, and real estate taxes;

 

  costs of complying with changes in governmental regulations;

 

  decreases in student enrollment at particular colleges and universities;

 

  changes in university policies related to admissions and housing; and

 

  changing student demographics.

 

In addition, periods of economic slowdown or recession, rising interest rates or declining demand for real estate, or the public perception that any of these events may occur, could result in a general decline in rents or an increased incidence of defaults under existing leases, which would adversely affect us.

 

17

 

 

We face possible risks associated with natural disasters and the physical effects of climate change, which may include more frequent or severe storms, hurricanes, flooding, rising sea levels, shortages of water, droughts and wildfires, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. To the extent climate change causes changes in weather patterns, our coastal destinations could experience increases in storm intensity and rising sea-levels causing damage to our properties and result in reduced rentals at these properties. Climate change may also affect our business by increasing the cost of, or making unavailable, property insurance on terms we find acceptable in areas most vulnerable to such events, increasing operating costs, including the cost of water or energy, and requiring us to expend funds to repair and protect our properties in connection with such events. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

 

The underlying value and performance of any real estate asset will fluctuate with general and local economic conditions. The successful operation of any real estate asset is significantly related to general and local economic conditions. Periods of economic slowdown or recession, significantly rising interest rates, declining employment levels, decreasing demand for student rentals, declining real estate values, or the public perception that any of these events may occur, can result in reductions in the underlying value of any asset and result in poor economic performance. In such cases, investors may lose the full value of their investment, or may not experience any distributions from the real estate asset.

 

Our results of operations are subject to an annual leasing cycle, short lease-up period, seasonal cash flows, changing university admission and housing policies and other risks inherent in the student housing industry. We generally lease our owned properties under 12-month leases, and in certain cases, under nine-month or shorter-term semester leases. As a result, we may experience significantly reduced cash flows during the summer months at properties with lease terms shorter than 12 months. Furthermore, all of our properties must be entirely re-leased each year during a limited leasing season that usually begins in January and ends in August of each year. We are therefore highly dependent on the effectiveness of our marketing and leasing efforts and personnel during this season, exposing us to significant leasing risk.

 

Changes in university admission policies could adversely affect us. For example, if a university reduces the number of student admissions or requires that a certain class of students, such as freshman, live in a university-owned facility, the demand for beds at our properties may be reduced and our occupancy rates may decline. While we may engage in marketing efforts to compensate for such change in admission policy, we may not be able to effect such marketing efforts prior to the commencement of the annual lease-up period or our additional marketing efforts may not be successful.

 

Competition and any increased affordability of multi-family homes could limit our ability to lease our apartments or maintain or increase rents, which may materially and adversely affect us, including our financial condition, cash flows, results of operations and growth prospects. The multi-family industry is highly competitive, and we face competition from many sources, including from other multi-family apartment communities both in the immediate vicinity and the geographic market where our properties are and will be located. This could increase the number of apartments units available and may decrease occupancy and unit rental rates. Furthermore, multi-family apartment communities we invest in compete, or will compete, with numerous housing alternative in attracting residents, including owner occupied single and multi-family homes available to rent or purchase. The number of competitive properties and/or condominiums in a particular area, or any increased affordability of owner occupied single and multi-family homes caused by declining housing prices, mortgage interest rates and government programs to promote home ownership, could adversely affect our ability to retain our residents, lease apartment units and maintain or increase rental rates. These factors could materially and adversely affect us.

 

We face significant competition from university-owned on-campus student housing, from other off-campus student housing properties and from traditional multi-family housing located within close proximity to universities. On-campus student housing has certain inherent advantages over off-campus student housing in terms of physical proximity to the university campus and integration of on-campus facilities into the academic community. Colleges and universities can generally avoid real estate taxes and borrow funds at lower interest rates than us and other private sector operators. We also compete with national and regional owner-operators of off-campus student housing in a number of markets as well as with smaller local owner-operators.

 

18

 

 

Currently, the industry is fragmented with no participant holding a significant market share. There are a number of student housing complexes that are located near or in the same general vicinity of the Property and that compete directly with us. Such competing student housing complexes may be newer than our properties, located closer to campus, charge less rent, possess more attractive amenities or offer more services or shorter term or more flexible leases.

 

Rental income at a particular property could also be affected by a number of other factors, including the construction of new on-campus and off- campus residences, increases or decreases in the general levels of rents for housing in competing communities, increases or decreases in the number of students enrolled at one or more of the colleges or universities in the market of the property and other general economic conditions.

 

We believe that a number of other companies with substantial financial and marketing resources may be potential entrants in the student housing business. The entry of one or more of these companies could increase competition for students and for the acquisition, development and management of other student housing properties.

 

A decline in general economic conditions in the markets in which each property is located or in the United States generally could lead to a lower rental rates in those markets. As a result of this trend, the company may reduce revenue, potentially resulting in losses and lower resale value of properties, which may reduce your return.

 

Lawsuits may arise between the company and its tenants resulting in lower cash distributions to investors. Disputes between landlords and tenants are common. These disputes may escalate into legal action from time to time. In the event a lawsuit arises between the company and a tenant it is likely that the company will see an increase in costs. Accordingly, cash distributions to investors may be affected.

 

The costs of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property or of paying personal injury or other damage claims could reduce the amounts available for distribution to the company’s investors. Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous real property owner or operator may be liable for the cost of removing or remediating hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. These costs could be substantial. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws also may impose liens on property or restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require substantial expenditures or prevent us renting the property. Environmental laws provide for sanctions for noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. Certain environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability for the release of and exposure to hazardous substances, including asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint. Third parties may seek recovery from real property owners or operators for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to released hazardous substances and governments may seek recovery for natural resource damage. The costs of defending against claims of environmental liability, of complying with environmental regulatory requirements, of remediating any contaminated property, or of paying personal injury, property damage or natural resource damage claims could reduce or eliminate the amounts available for distribution to Members.

 

Costs associated with complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act may decrease cash available for distributions. Each Property may be subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, or the ADA. Under the ADA, all places of public accommodation are required to comply with federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. The ADA has separate compliance requirements for “public accommodations” and “commercial facilities” that generally require that buildings and services be made accessible and available to people with disabilities. The ADA’s requirements could require removal of access barriers and could result in the imposition of injunctive relief, monetary penalties or, in some cases, an award of damages. Any funds used for ADA compliance will reduce the company’s net income and the amount of cash available for distributions to investors.

 

We may incur significant costs complying with other regulations. Each Property is subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as state and local fire and life safety requirements. If we fail to comply with these various requirements, we might incur governmental fines or private damage awards. Furthermore, existing requirements could change and require us to make significant unanticipated expenditures that would materially and adversely affect us.

 

19

 

 

Uninsured losses relating to real property or excessively expensive premiums for insurance coverage could reduce the company’s cash flows and the return on investment. There are types of losses, generally catastrophic in nature, such as losses due to wars, acts of terrorism, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, pollution or environmental matters, that are uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be insured subject to limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. Insurance risks associated with potential acts of terrorism could sharply increase the premiums the company pays for coverage against property and casualty claims. Additionally, to the extent the company finances the acquisition of a Property, mortgage lenders in some cases insist that property owners purchase coverage against flooding as a condition for providing mortgage loans. Such insurance policies may not be available at reasonable costs, which could inhibit the company’s ability to finance or refinance its properties if so required. In such instances, the company may be required to provide other financial support, either through financial assurances or self-insurance, to cover potential losses. The company may not have adequate coverage for such losses. If any of the properties incur a casualty loss that is not fully insured, the value of the assets will be reduced by any such uninsured loss, which may reduce the value of investor interests. In addition, other than any working capital reserve or other reserves the company may establish, the company has no additional sources of funding to repair or reconstruct any uninsured property. Also, to the extent the company must pay unexpectedly large amounts for insurance, it could suffer reduced earnings that would result in lower distributions to investors.

 

Risks Related to Our Properties, Our Markets and Our Business

 

We are an emerging growth company organized on February 2, 2022 and have not yet commenced operations, 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 possibility of losing their investment. We were organized on February 2, 2022 and have not yet started operations. As a result of our start-up status we (i) have generated no revenues, (ii) will accumulate deficits due to organizational and start-up 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 ability to raise adequate working capital, availability of properties for purchase, the level of our competition and our ability to attract and maintain key management and employees.

 

You may not receive Distributions on predictable schedule and may never receive any Distributions. Distributions will only be available to the extent there is cash flow from rentals and other operations of the properties and other investments in excess of Company expenses. Therefore, there can be no assurance as to when or whether there will be any Cash Distributions from the Company to the Members.

 

The profitability of the properties is uncertain. We intend to invest in properties selectively. Investment in properties entails risks that investments will fail to perform in accordance with expectations. In undertaking these investments, we will incur certain risks, including the expenditure of funds on, and the devotion of management’s time to, transactions that may not come to fruition. Additional risks inherent in investments include risks that the properties will not achieve anticipated rents or occupancy levels and that estimated operating expenses may prove inaccurate.

 

Rising expenses could reduce cash flow and funds available for future investments. Our properties will be subject to increases in real estate tax rates, utility costs, operating expenses, insurance costs, repairs and maintenance, administrative and other expenses. If we are unable to increase rents at an equal or higher rate or lease properties on a basis requiring the tenants to pay all or some of the expenses, we would be required to pay those costs, which could adversely affect funds available for future distributions to Members.

 

20

 

 

Due to economic conditions, local real estate conditions and competition for properties, the real estate we invest in may not appreciate or may decrease in value. A multi-family or commercial property's income and value may be adversely affected by national and regional economic conditions, local real estate conditions such as an oversupply of properties or a reduction in demand for properties, competition from other similar properties, our ability to provide adequate maintenance, insurance and management services, increased operating costs (including real estate taxes), the attractiveness and location of the property and changes in market rental rates. Our income will be adversely affected if a significant number of tenants are unable to pay rent or if our properties cannot be rented on favorable terms. Our performance is linked to economic conditions in the regions where the Property is located and in the market for multi-family space 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, 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 Members.

 

We may be unable to renew, repay or refinance our outstanding debt. We are subject to the risk that our indebtedness will not be able to be renewed, repaid or refinanced when due or that the terms of any renewal or refinancing will not be as favorable as the existing terms of such indebtedness. If we were unable to refinance our indebtedness on acceptable terms, or at all, we might be forced to dispose of the Property on disadvantageous terms, which might result in losses to us. Such losses could have a material adverse effect on us and our ability to make distributions to our equity holders and pay amounts due on our debt.

 

Changes in laws could affect our business. We are generally not able to pass through to our residents under existing leases real estate taxes, income taxes or other taxes. Consequently, any such tax increases may adversely affect our financial condition and limit our ability to satisfy our financial obligations and make distributions to security holders. Changes that increase our potential liability under environmental laws or our expenditures on environmental compliance could have the same impact.

 

A cybersecurity incident and other technology disruptions could negatively impact our business, our relationships and our reputation. We use computers in substantially all aspects of our business operations. We also use mobile devices, social networking and other online activities to connect with our employees, suppliers and our residents. Such uses give rise to cybersecurity risks, including security breach, espionage, system disruption, theft and inadvertent release of information. Our business involves the storage and transmission of numerous classes of sensitive and/or confidential information and intellectual property, including residents' personal information, private information about employees, and financial and strategic information about us. As our reliance on technology increases, so have the risks posed to our systems, both internal and those we have outsourced to third party service providers. In addition, information security risks have generally increased in recent years due to the rise in new technologies and the increased sophistication and activities of perpetrators of cyberattacks. The theft, destruction, loss, misappropriation or release of sensitive and/or confidential information or intellectual property, or interference with our information technology systems or the technology systems of third-parties on which we rely, could result in business disruption, negative publicity, brand damage, violation of privacy laws, loss of residents, potential liability and competitive disadvantage, any of which could result in a material adverse effect on financial condition or results of operations.

 

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and government restrictions adopted in response thereto, could significantly impact the ability of our tenants to pay rent, impede the performance of our properties, and harm our financial condition. The United States, like the rest of the world, has been adversely affected by the breakout of the COVID-19 virus. The United States government, many states, and cities have periodically instituted "shelter in place" orders and adopted other restrictions which have caused the shuttering of many businesses and multiple layoffs, which may affect the income and, ultimately, the ability of tenants to pay rent. In addition, property owners have become subject of certain restrictions, such as a temporary moratorium on evictions, which may limit the Company’s ability to respond to tenant defaults. These factors, and any other effects of the pandemic, may impede the operations of our properties and could significantly harm our financial condition and operating results.

 

Risks Related to the Offering

 

The company may not raise sufficient funds to achieve its business objectives. As identified in the Series Offering Table, for certain Series of the company, there is no minimum amount required to be raised before the company can accept your subscription for the Series Interests, and it can access the funds immediately. The company may not raise an amount sufficient for it to meet all of its objectives, including acquiring the Property. Once the company accepts your investment funds, there will be no obligation to return your funds. Even if other Series Interests are sold, there may be insufficient funds raised through this offering to cover the expenses associated with the offering or complete the purchase of the Property and the development and implementation of the company’s operations. The lack of sufficient funds to pay expenses and for working capital will negatively impact the company’s ability to implement and complete its planned use of proceeds.

 

21

 

 

The company’s management has full discretion as to the use of proceeds from the offering. The company presently anticipates that the net proceeds from the offering will be used by us to purchase the Property and as general working capital. The company reserves the right, however, to use the funds from the offering for other purposes not presently contemplated herein but which are related directly to growing its current business. As a result of the foregoing, purchasers of the Series Interests hereby will be entrusting their funds to the company’s management, upon whose judgment and discretion the investors must depend, with only limited information concerning management’s specific intentions.

 

An investment in the Interests is highly illiquid. You may never be able to sell or otherwise dispose of your Series Interests. Since there is no public trading market for our Interests, you may never be able to liquidate your investment or otherwise dispose of your Series Interests. Potential investors should note that the Operating Agreement does not compel the Managing Member to sell all the properties, and thus, there is a risk that an investor may remain in the company indefinitely. Therefore, you should expect to keep your investment in Series Interests indefinitely.

 

There is no current market for the Series Interests. There is no formal marketplace for the resale of the Series Interests. These Series Interests are illiquid and there will not be an official current price for them, as there would be if the company were a publicly-traded company with a listing on a stock exchange. Investors should assume that they may not be able to liquidate their investment or be able to pledge their Series Interests as collateral. Since the company has not established a trading forum for the Series Interests, there will be no easy way to know what the Series Interests are worth at any time.

 

The purchase price for the Series Interests has been arbitrarily determined. The purchase price for the Series Interests has been arbitrarily determined by the company and bears no relationship to the company’s assets, book value, earnings or other generally accepted criteria of value. In determining pricing, the company considered factors such as the purchase and holding costs of the Property, the company’s limited financial resources, the nature of its assets, estimates of its business potential, the degree of equity or control desired to be retained by Managing Member and general economic conditions.

 

You may not be able to keep records of your investment for tax purposes.  As with all investments in securities, if you sell the Series Interests, you will probably need to pay tax on the long- or short-term capital gains that you realize if you make a profit and record any loss to apply it to other taxable income. If you do not have a regular brokerage account, or your regular broker will not hold the Series Interests for you (and many brokers refuse to hold Regulation A securities for their customers) there will be nobody keeping records for you for tax purposes and you will have to keep your own records and calculate the gain on any sales of the Series Interests you sell. If you fail to keep accurate records or accurately calculate any gain on any sales of the Series Interests, you may be subject to tax audits and penalties.

 

You will not be able to hold the Series Interests in your regular brokerage account. Description of where ownership of the securities will be recorded in book-entry form on a stock transfer agent’s books. These records show you as the direct owner of the Interests. In the case of publicly-traded companies, it is common for a broker to hold the securities on your behalf, in “street name” (meaning the broker is shown as the holder on the issuer’s records and then you show up on the broker’s records as the person the broker is holding for). Many brokers will not hold Regulation A securities for their customers, meaning that you may not be able to take advantage of the convenience of having all your holdings reflected in one place.

 

Risks Related to Forum Selection and Jury Waivers

 

Investors will be subject to the terms of the Subscription Agreement. As part of this investment, each investor will be required to agree to the terms of the Subscription Agreement included as Exhibit 4 to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular is part. The Subscription Agreement requires investors to indemnify and hold harmless the company, is Manager and their respective officers, directors and affiliates, and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including attorneys’ fees on appeal) and expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any false representation or warranty or breach of failure by an investor to comply with any covenant or agreement made by Investor herein or in any other document furnished by investor to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction. Legal conflicts relating to the Subscription Agreement will likely be heard in Delaware courts and will be governed by under Delaware law.

 

22

 

 

Investors in this offering may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the Subscription Agreement or Operating Agreement, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action under these Agreements. Investors in this offering will be bound by the Subscription Agreement and the Operating Agreement, both of which include a provision under which investors waive the right to a jury trial of any claim, other than claims arising under federal securities laws, that they may have against the company arising out of or relating to these agreements. By signing these agreements, the investor warrants that the investor has reviewed this waiver with his, her or its legal counsel, and knowingly and voluntarily waives the investor’s jury trial rights following consultation with the investor’s legal counsel.

 

If you bring a claim against the company in connection with matters arising under the Subscription Agreement or Operating Agreement, other than claims under the federal securities laws, you may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to those claims, which may have the effect of limiting and discouraging lawsuits against the company. If a lawsuit is brought against the company under one of those agreements, it may be heard only by a judge or justice of the applicable trial court, which would be conducted according to different civil procedures and may result in different outcomes than a trial by jury would have had, including results that could be less favorable to the plaintiff(s) in such an action.

 

In addition, when the Series Interests are transferred, the transferee is required to agree to all the same conditions, obligations, and restrictions applicable to the Series Interests or to the transferor with regard to ownership of the Series Interests, that were in effect immediately prior to the transfer of the Series Interests, including the Subscription Agreement and the Operating Agreement.

 

The company’s Operating Agreement and Subscription Agreement each include a forum selection provision, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action against the company. The Operating Agreement includes a forum selection provision that requires any suit, action, or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with the Operating Agreement, or the transactions contemplated thereby, other than matters arising under the federal securities laws, be brought in state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located within the State of Delaware. Our Subscription Agreement for each manner of investing and class of security includes a forum selection provision that requires any suit, action, or proceeding arising from the Subscription Agreement, other than matters arising under the federal securities laws, be brought in a state of federal court of competent jurisdiction located within the State of Delaware. These forum selection provisions may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims.

 

23

 

 

DILUTION

 

Dilution means a reduction in value, control, or earnings of the Series Interest an investor owns.

 

As of the date of this Offering Circular, the Managing Member owns 100% of the company’s membership interests. Those membership interests are not connected to any specific Series Interest. Investors in this offering will be acquiring Series Interests of a Series of the company, the economic rights of each Series Interest will be based on the corresponding Underlying Asset of that Series. As such, investors will not experience dilution except as a result of the sale of additional Series Interests of the Series to which they have subscribed.

 

24

 

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are offering, on a best efforts basis, Series Interests of each of the open Series of our company in the “Series Offering Table” herein. The offering price for each Series was determined by our Managing Member.

 

The company plans to market the securities directly on a “best efforts” basis. The company intends to use its website and an offering landing page to offer the Series Interests to eligible investors. The officers, directors, employees, and advisors of the company or its Managing Member may participate in the offering. When applicable, the company intends to prepare written materials and respond to investors after the investors initiate contact with the company, however no officers, directors, employees or advisors to the company or its Managing Member will orally solicit investors.

 

The Offering Circular will be furnished to prospective investors in this offering via download 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on the company’s website www.collabhome.io Prospective investors may subscribe for the Series Interests in this offering only through the website. In order to subscribe to purchase Series Interests, a prospective investor must electronically complete, sign and deliver to us an executed subscription agreement like the one filed as an exhibit to the Offering Statement, of which this Offering Circular is part, and provide funds for its subscription amount in accordance with the instructions provided therein.

 

We reserve the right to reject any investor’s subscription in whole or in part for any reason. If the offering terminates or if any prospective investor’s subscription is rejected, all funds received from such investors will be returned without interest or deduction.

 

Further, pursuant to Section 1 in the applicable Series Interest Subscription Agreement, the subscriptions are irrevocable by the investor, unless otherwise agreed in writing to by the company and such investor.

 

After each closing, funds tendered by investors will be available to the company for its use. At the initial closing, Collab our Managing Member, may purchase a minimum of 5% of Series Interests through the Offering, or such other minimum and maximum percentage amount as set forth in the applicable Series Designation.

 

We will conduct separate closings with respect to each offering of Series Interests. The termination of an offering for a Series will occur on the earliest to occur of (i) the date subscriptions for the maximum number of Series Interests offered for a Series have been accepted or (ii) a date determined by our Managing Member in its sole discretion. The company intends to create additional Series that may be added to this offering only upon qualification of an amendment to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part. The offering of Series Interests pursuant to the Offering Statement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the date at which the maximum offering amount of all Series Interests has been sold, (ii) the date which is three years from the date such offering circular or amendment thereof, as applicable, is qualified by the Commission, or (iii) any date on which our Managing Member elects to terminate this offering in its sole discretion.

 

The company may, in its sole discretion, undertake one or more closings on a rolling basis, and intends to effect a close every 7 days. After each closing, funds tendered by investors will be available to the company and the company will issue the Series Interests to investors. An investor will become a member of the company, including for tax purposes, and the Series Interests will be issued, as of the date of settlement. Settlement will not occur until an investor’s funds have cleared and the company accepts the investor as a member. Not all investors will receive their Series Interests on the same date.

 

25

 

 

The company has also engaged Dalmore Group, LLC (“Dalmore”) a broker-dealer registered with the SEC and a member of FINRA, to perform the following administrative and compliance related functions in connection with this offering, but not for underwriting or placement agent services:

 

  Review investor information, including KYC (“Know Your Customer”) data, perform AML (“Anti Money Laundering”) and other compliance background checks, and provide a recommendation to the company whether or not to accept an investor as a customer;

 

  Review each investor’s subscription agreement to confirm such investor’s participation in the offering and provide a determination to the company whether or not to accept the use of the subscription agreement for the investor’s participation;

 

  Contact and/or notify the company, if needed, to gather additional information or clarification on an investor;

 

  Not provide any investment advice nor any investment recommendations to any investor;

 

  Keep investor details and data confidential and not disclose to any third-party except as required by regulators or in its performance pursuant to the terms of the agreement (e.g., as needed for AML and background checks); and

 

  Coordinate with third party providers to ensure adequate review and compliance.

 

As compensation for the services listed above, the company has agreed to pay Dalmore a commission equal to 1% of the amount raised in the offering to support the offering on all newly invested funds after the issuance of a No Objection Letter by FINRA. In addition, the company has paid Dalmore a $5,000 one-time advance expense allowance to cover reasonable out-of-pocket accountable expenses actually anticipated to be incurred by Dalmore in connection with this offering. Dalmore will refund any amount related to this expense allowance to the extent it is not used, incurred or provided to the company. The company has also agreed to pay Dalmore a one-time consulting fee of $20,000 to provide ongoing general consulting services relating to this offering such as coordination with third party vendors and general guidance with respect to the offering, which will be due and payable within 30 days after this offering is qualified by the SEC and the receipt of a No Objection Letter from FINRA.  Assuming the offering is fully-subscribed, the company estimates that total fees due to pay Dalmore, including the one-time advance expense allowance fee of $5,000 and consulting fee of $20,000, would be $25,000 plus 1% of the aggregate of offering amounts of all Series shown on the cover page of this Offering Circular.

 

Process of Subscribing

 

After the offering statement has been qualified by the Commission, the company will accept tenders of funds to purchase the Series Interests.

  5. Based on your account status, the company may ask an Investor to provide identification or accreditation proof documents before accepting the subscription.

 

26

 

 

Any potential investor will have ample time and is advised to review the Subscription Agreement, along with their counsel, prior to making any final investment decision.

 

Investors may subscribe by tendering funds by check, wire transfer, or ACH transfer to an account maintained by the Escrow Agent until the company has accepted the investor’s subscription. Upon closing, funds tendered by investors will be made available by the Escrow Agent to the company for its use. The company has the right to refuse to sell the Series Interests to any prospective investor or for any reason in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, if such prospective investor does not promptly supply all information requested by the company in connection with such prospective investor subscription. In addition, in the company’s sole discretion, it may establish a limit on the purchase of Series Interests by particular prospective investors.

 

Escrow Agent

 

The company has entered into an Escrow Agreement with North Capital Private Securities Corporation (the “Escrow Agent”). Investor funds will be held by the Escrow Agent pending closing or termination of the offering. All subscribers will be instructed by the company or its agents to transfer funds by check, wire transfer or ACH transfer directly to the escrow account established for this offering. The company may terminate the offering at any time for any reason at its sole discretion. Investors should understand that acceptance of their funds into escrow does not necessarily result in their receiving Series Interests; escrowed funds may be returned.

 

The Escrow Agent is not participating as an underwriter or placement agent or sales agent of this offering and will not solicit any investment in the company, recommend the company’s securities or provide investment advice to any prospective investor, and no communication through any medium, including any website, should be construed as such, or distribute this Offering Circular or other offering materials to investors.

Selling Security Holders

Forum Selection Provision

 

The Subscription Agreement that investors will execute in connection with the offering includes a forum selection provision that requires any claims against the company based on the Subscription Agreement to be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware, excluding any claims under federal securities laws. Although the company believes the provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies and in limiting the company’s litigation costs, to the extent it is enforceable, the forum selection provision may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. The company has adopted the provision to limit the time and expense incurred by its management to challenge any such claims. As a company with a small management team, this provision allows its officers to not lose a significant amount of time travelling to various forums so they may continue to focus on operations of the company.

 

Jury Trial Waiver

 

The Subscription Agreement that investors will execute in connection with the offering provides that subscribers waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against us arising out of or relating to the Agreement, excluding any claim under federal securities laws. By signing the Subscription Agreement, an investor will warrant that the investor has reviewed this waiver with the investor’s legal counsel, and knowingly and voluntarily waives his or her jury trial rights following consultation with the investor’s legal counsel. If the company opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable given the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with applicable case law.

THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

YSMD was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 2, 2022. YSMD is an investment vehicle which intends to enable investors to own fractional ownership of a specific student housing rental property, but will also, under certain circumstances, consider multi-family and commercial real estate assets such asself-storage, warehouse and industrial, office, hospitality and retail properties. This lowers the cost-of-entry and minimizes the time commitment for real estate investing. An investment in the company entitles the investor to the potential economic and tax benefits normally associated with direct property ownership, while requiring no investor involvement in asset or property management. As of the date of this offering circular, no series of YSMD have been liquidated, and no prior program has been sponsored by YSMD resulting in any prior liquidation.

 

The company intends to establish separate Series for the holding of student housing rental properties to be acquired by the company. Notably, the debts, liabilities and obligations incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular Series of the company will be enforceable against the assets of the applicable Series only, and not against the assets of the company. In addition, YSMD will manage all Underlying Assets related to the various Series including the sales of property, renting of the student housing rental property, maintenance and insurance.

 

Collab is an affiliate of YSMD. As discussed in further in the Operating Agreement of YSMD, Collab is the Managing Member of YSMD. Collab was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 14, 2022. YSMD is a real estate investment platform that allows individual investors to have direct access to quality student housing rental estate investment opportunities and invest in individual student rental properties. Neither the company, Collab or their affiliates has previously conducted any offerings of securities.

 

Intended Business Process

 

We have commenced only limited operations, exclusively focused on organizational matters in connection with this offering. We intend on generating revenues from rents to tenants for student housing, but will also, under certain circumstances, consider multi-family and commercial real estate assets such as self-storage, warehouse and industrial, office, and retail properties. We have no plans to change our business activities or to combine with another business, and we are not aware of any events or circumstances that might cause our plans to change. The company does not have any plans or arrangements to enter into a change of control, business combination or similar transaction or to change management.

 

Generally, the company and Collab intend to arrange for the purchase of a specific student housing rental property either directly by the Series or by one of its parent companies, as described below:

 

If one of its parent or affiliated companies purchased the property directly, then, after the relevant Series has obtained sufficient financing, which may include an Acquisition Loan from our Managing Member, it would sell the property to that Series for the greater of (i) an amount equal to the original purchase price (including closing costs) plus holding costs, renovation costs and furnishing expenses incurred by such parent company prior to the sale to the Series; and (ii) an amount equal to market valuation determined by company’s Managing Member in its sole discretion.

 

In cases where Collab identifies and intends to have the Series purchase that property directly from a third party Seller, it would use the proceeds of the offering for that Series to purchase the property and may finance a portion of the purchase price with mortgage or other third party financing. The company generally expects to set a minimum offering amount for each Series such that the net proceeds would be sufficient to finance the net purchase of the Underlying Assets (less third party financing), plus closing and any loan costs and expected repairs, renovations or furnishings. If the purchase agreement for the property does not include a financing condition or the financing contingency has expired and the closing for the property occurs prior to sufficient minimum proceeds being received, Collab or an affiliate may provide a loan to the Series to finance all or part of the purchase price of the property that would be repaid with the proceeds of the offering.

The loan has a term of 10 years and for the first 7 years bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.15%, with monthly interest-only payments for the first 36 months of $4,777.50. Thereafter, on the first day of every month after September 1, 2027, the adjustable interest rate shall be the sum of (i) the current index, and (ii) 2.75%. The current index means the monthly average of the “ Year CMT”. For example, if the interest rate was set today, it would be 6.75%/

Property Management Agreements with Collab (USA) LLC

 

Collab is expected to serve as the Property Manager responsible for managing each Series’ Underlying Asset as described in the relevant Property Management Agreement for the Series. However, the company may choose to enter into agreements with third-parties to manage a Series’ Underlying Assets (each such property manager, the “Property Manager”). The terms of each Property Management Agreement are as set forth below.

 

Authority: The Property Manager shall have sole authority and complete discretion over the care, custody, maintenance and management of the applicable Underlying Asset for each Series and may take any action that it deems necessary or desirable in connection with each Underlying Asset, subject to the limits set for in the Agreement (generally acquisition of any asset or service for an amount equal to or greater than 1% of the value of the relevant Underlying Assets individually, or 3% of such value in the aggregate requires approval of the Managing Member).

 

Delegation: The Property Manager may delegate all or any of its duties. The Property Manager shall not have the authority to sell, transfer, encumber or convey any Underlying Asset.

 

Performance of Underling Assets: The Property Manager gives no warranty as to the performance or profitability of the Underlying Assets or as to the performance of any third party engaged by the Property Manager hereunder.

 

Assignment: No Property Management Agreement may be assigned by either party without the consent of the other party.

 

Compensation and Expenses: Each Series will pay, monthly, a property management fee to the Property Manager, equal to a percentage (as set forth below) of the Gross Receipts received by the Series during the immediately preceding month.

 

  Series 2340 Hilgard and Series Buttonwood 19-3: 8%

 

“Gross Receipts” means (i) receipts from the short-term or long-term rental of the Underlying Assets; (ii) receipts from rental escalations, late charges and/or cancellation fees (iii) receipts from tenants for reimbursable operating expenses; (iv) receipts from concessions granted or goods or services provided in connection with the Underlying Assets or to the tenants or prospective tenants; (v) other miscellaneous operating receipts; and (vi) proceeds from rent or business interruption insurance, excluding (A) tenants’ security or damage deposits until the same are forfeited by the person making such deposits; (B) property damage insurance proceeds; and (C) any award or payment made by any governmental authority in connection with the exercise of any right of eminent domain.

 

Each Series will also pay a renovation management fee, as applicable, to the Property Manager equal to a percentage (as set for the below) of the total capital improvement costs for renovation management.

 

  Series 2340 Hilgard and Series Buttonwood 19-3: 5.5%

 

Each Series will also pay a disposition fee to the Property Manager equal to a percentage (as set forth below) of the total sales price when the Underlying Asset is sold.

 

  Series B and Series Buttonwood 19-3: 2%

 

33

 

 

Each Series will bear all expenses of the applicable Underlying Asset and shall reimburse the Property Manager for any such expenses paid by the Property Manager on behalf of the applicable Series together with a reasonable rate of interest.

 

Duration and Termination: Each Property Management Agreement shall expire one year after the date on which the applicable Underlying Asset has been liquidated and the obligations connected to such Underlying Assets (including, without limitation, contingent obligations) have terminated, or earlier if Collab is removed as the Managing Member of the applicable Series.

 

Allocations of Expenses

 

If any fees, costs and expenses of the company are not related solely to a specific Series, they will be allocated by the Managing Member among all Series (or in cases where such fees, costs or expenses relate to several Series but not all Series, among the relevant Series) generally in proportion to the Asset Value of the various Series. “Asset Value” at any date means the fair market value of assets in a Series representing the purchase price that a willing buyer having all relevant knowledge would pay a willing seller for such assets in an arm’s length transaction, determined by the Managing Member in its sole discretion.

 

Once such fees, costs or expenses have been allocated in accordance with the Manager’s allocation policy, each relevant Series would record their allocated portion and become liable for payment or for reimbursing the Managing Member for its pre-allocation payment of such expenses. For example, generally, we expect that the costs of repairs, furnishings and capital expenditures for a particular property will be applicable to and incurred solely by the relevant Series which owns such property. Similarly, property management fees and other contractual obligations under the Property Management Agreement for a specific Series, and the asset management fees charged by our Managing Member will be obligations solely of the relevant Series. In contrast and for example, our Managing Member initially bears all offering expenses, other than brokerage commissions, on behalf of each Series. Such expenses will be allocated among and reimbursed by all Series established by YSMD once those Series have all been established and funded. There may be situations where it is difficult to allocate fees, costs and expenses among specific Series and, therefore, there is a risk that a Series may bear a proportion of the fees, costs and expenses for a service or product for which another Series received a disproportionately high benefit. See “Risk Factors – Liability of investors between Series.”

 

YSMD Series 2340 Hilgard Property

 

The Property is located at 2340 Hilgard Avenue, Berkeley, CA and, according to the 2020 US census, the city of Berkeley has a population of approximately 123,000 and a median age of 32. A total of 73% of individuals over the age of 24 have a bachelor’s or higher degree. The area features an average household income of approximately $136,100.

Boston remains the nation's foremost region for the life science industry and is home to several professional sports teams, including Boston Red Sox, Boston Celtics, New England Patriots. Boston is the economic engine and cultural hub of New England. 2

 

The Student Housing Industry

 

Student housing is broadly defined to include housing designed to accommodate students enrolled in either full-time or part-time post-secondary, public, and private four-year colleges and universities, including those that offer advanced degrees. The student housing market generally does not seek to address the housing needs of students enrolled in two-year community colleges and technical colleges, as these institutions do not generate sufficient and consistent demand for student housing.

 

Overall, the student housing market has certain unique characteristics that distinguish it from other segments of the housing market. First, purpose-built student housing is aimed only at those persons enrolled in college and not at the general population of renters. Second, the leasing cycle for student housing properties is defined by the academic calendar, which results in a finite leasing window and relatively low month-to-month turnover following the start of the academic year. Finally, student housing properties are designed to accommodate and appeal to the college lifestyle, which is significantly different from the lifestyle of a typical multi-family renter.

There are two general types of student housing: (i) on campus and (ii) off-campus. On-campus housing is generally owned and operated by educational institutions or in a joint venture via public or private partnerships and is located on school property near or adjacent to classroom buildings and other campus facilities. On campus student housing is typically a dormitory with dining halls designed for first year students or for graduate students. Off-campus housing is generally owned and operated by private investors and is located in close proximity to campus (i.e., generally within a two-mile radius of the campus). There are three types of off-campus student housing properties: (i) student competitive, (ii) conventional market rate and (iii) purpose-built. Student competitive apartments are traditional apartment projects that happen to be close to campus. Market rate apartments are typically properties within driving distance, occupied by students who choose to commute. Purpose-built student housing refers to off-campus housing that is specifically designed and constructed as an amenities-rich property with a view towards accommodating the unique characteristics of the student-resident. While purpose-built student housing is classified as a multi-family housing product, it is significantly different from and more specialized than traditional market rate multi-family housing products, which are offered to the broader pool of multi-family renters.

 

Unlike multi-family housing where apartments are leased by the unit, student housing properties are typically leased by the bed on an individual lease liability basis. Individual lease liability can limit each resident’s liability to his or her own rent without liability for a roommate’s rent. A parent or guardian will be required to execute each lease as a guarantor unless the resident provides adequate proof of income. The number of lease contracts will therefore be equivalent to the number of beds occupied instead of the number of apartment units rented.

 

Student housing is a niche property type that has its own set of inherent issues, which are usually addressed by proactive property management. Student housing is seasonal. The most common way to smooth out seasonality is by writing 12 month leases as opposed to leases tied to school year periods. While this lease structure assists in stabilizing annual cash flow, the vast majority of beds still turn over at the same time at the end of the school year. This is followed by a short window of time to address and complete maintenance before the next school cycle. Leasing for the upcoming academic year typically commences in the first semester with a “push” for renewals through December 31 and then marketing to new students at the beginning of the year and ending by late August. Failure to lease-up or correct deferred maintenance during this leasing period can be costly to the property with an entire year’s tenancy and cash flow in jeopardy. We anticipate that substantially all of our leases will commence in August and terminate on the last day of July. These dates coincide with the commencement of the universities’ fall academic term and typically terminate at the completion of the subsequent summer school session. Other than renewing student-residents, we will be required to substantially re-lease each property each year, resulting in significant turnover in our student-resident population from year to year.

 

Notwithstanding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, college and university enrollment has been growing across the U.S. in recent years, creating a significant need for safe, affordable, and accessible student housing at both public and private institutions. Not all of this housing can be on-campus and institution-financed. Institutions are now evaluating the merits of internal financing, either through use of their endowment or issuance of general obligation bonds or joint venture using a public or private partnership program. While institutions evaluate the market, opportunities exist for off campus private development and financing of student housing. The bureaucratic constraints on public institutions can afford private developers an additional advantage. In addition to increasing enrollment figures, the demand for student housing is driven by several market factors, including the needs of Generation Z (those born between 1995 and 2010), proximity to campus, continued demand, investment performance, and investor interest.

 

Market Trends

 

The following represents trends in the student housing market:

 

  New supply has been declining over the last several years, and 2022 new supply is expected to be at the lowest levels in over a decade.3

  Public 4-year universities have averaged 1.6% annual enrollment growth since 1970 and have continued at these levels since the Great Recession.

 

  The country's 175 largest universities can provide on-campus accommodations for only 21.5% of undergraduates4

 

  Student housing properties are categorized as a subset of multi-family properties, which are considered less volatile than other real estate asset classes.5

 

Competition

 

The extent of competition in a market area depends significantly on local market conditions. The primary factors upon which competition in the student housing industry are location, rental rates, suitability of the property’s design and the manner in which the property is operated and marketed. We believe we will compete successfully on these bases.

 

Many of our competitors are larger and have substantially greater resources than we do. Such competitors may, among other possible advantages, be capable of paying higher prices for acquisitions and obtaining financing on better terms than us.

 

Plan of Operations

 

YSMD intends to enable investors to own fractional ownership of a specific student housing rental property, but will also, under certain circumstances, consider multi-family and commercial real estate assets such asself-storage, warehouse and industrial, office, and retail properties

 

The company chooses properties based on large-scale historical and marketing data and 56 years of combined real-estate experiences from our team’s real-estate experts. The company focuses on student housing properties in close proximity to campus with high barriers to entry (e.g. strict zoning law and high construction costs). The company primarily focuses on owning properties serving “thriving universities” (e.g. those with competitive admission rates, high education score, and high endowments per student).6

 

As part of our plan of operations, we intend to execute the following milestones over the course of the next 12 months:

 

● Expand into three new geographical markets that have robust off-campus student housing demand, including New Haven, Conn (Yale University), New Brunswick, NJ (Rutgers University), and Boston, MA (Harvard, MIT, University of Massachusetts, Boston University, etc.).

 

● Improve investor management platform for better information exchange, investment experience, and customer service.

 

● Reach 10,000 active investors with both online marketing channels and offline events.

 

Employees

 

YSMD currently has 0 full-time employees and 0 part-time employees.

 

Collab, as the Managing Member of the company, the Property Manager of the company and of each of the Series, currently has five full-time and one part-time employee, including its Chairman and CEO, Qian Wang, all of whom work remotely.

Regulation

 

Our business is subject to many laws and governmental regulations. Changes in these laws and regulations, or their interpretation by agencies and courts, occur frequently. Regulations applicable to our business are described below.

 

Americans with Disabilities Act

 

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, or ADA, all public accommodations and commercial facilities are required to meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. These requirements became effective in 1992. Complying with the ADA requirements could require us to remove access barriers. Failing to comply could result in the imposition of fines by the federal government or an award of damages to private litigants. Although we intend to acquire properties that substantially comply with these requirements, we may incur additional costs to comply with the ADA. In addition, a number of additional federal, state, and local laws may require us to modify any properties we purchase, or may restrict further renovations thereof, with respect to access by disabled persons. Additional legislation could impose financial obligations or restrictions with respect to access by disabled persons. Although we believe that these costs will not have a material adverse effect on us, if required changes involve a greater amount of expenditures than we currently anticipate, our ability to make expected distributions could be adversely affected.

 

Environmental Matters

 

Under various federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be held liable for the costs of removing or remediating hazardous or toxic substances. These laws often impose clean-up responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner or operator was responsible for, or even knew of, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances. The costs of investigating, removing, or remediating these substances may be substantial, and the presence of these substances may adversely affect our ability to rent units or sell the property, or to borrow using the property as collateral, and may expose us to liability resulting from any release of or exposure to these substances. If we arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances at another location, we may be liable for the costs of removing or remediating these substances at the disposal or treatment facility, whether or not the facility is owned or operated by us. We may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from a site that we own or operate. Certain environmental laws also impose liability in connection with the handling of or exposure to asbestos-containing materials, pursuant to which third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury associated with asbestos-containing materials and other hazardous or toxic substances.

 

Tenant Rights and Fair Housing Laws

 

Various states have enacted laws, ordinances and regulations protecting the rights of housing tenants. Such laws may require us, our affiliated Property Manager, our third party managers or other operators of our student housing properties to comply with extensive residential landlord requirements and limitations.

 

Litigation

 

The company is not a party to any current litigation.

THE COMPANY’S PROPERTY

 

The company’s Managing Member currently leases our office at 745 5th Ave, Suite 500, New York, NY 10151. The company has its registered office address at 16192 Coastal Highway, Lewes, Delaware 19958.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting the company’s current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Offering Circular.

 

Overview

 

Since its formation in February 2022, our company has been engaged primarily in preparing to acquire properties for its YSMD Series A LLC, and developing the financial, offering and other materials to begin fundraising. We are considered to be a development stage company, since we are devoting substantially all of our efforts to establishing our business and planned principal operations have only recently commenced.

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

We may elect to become a public reporting company under the Exchange Act. If we elect to do so, we will be required to publicly report on an ongoing basis as an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act, under the reporting rules set forth under the Exchange Act. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other Exchange Act reporting companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to:

 

  not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

 

  being permitted to comply with reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements; and

 

  being exempt from the requirement to hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

We would expect to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would remain an emerging growth company for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion; (ii) the date that we become a large accelerated filer as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter; or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three-year period.

 

Operating Results

 

Revenues are generated at the series level. As of June 30, 2022, no series has generated any revenues. YSMD Series A LLC is expected to generate revenues in the last quarter of 2022 upon the successful completion of each offering.

 

We have not incurred any Operating Expenses for the period since inception through June 30, 2022. Each series will be responsible for its own Operating Expenses, such as property taxes, property insurance, and home ownership association fees beginning on the closing date of the offering of such series.

 

39

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2022, none of our company nor any series of interests had any cash or cash equivalents and had no financial obligations.

 

YSMD Series 2340 Hilgard and Series Buttonwood 19-3 expect to complete the acquisition of their respective properties during the the third quarter of 2023. We intend to purchase 2340 Hilgard and Buttonwood 19-3 with the proceeds of each of the Series 2340 Hilgard and Series Buttonwood 19-3 offering, respectively.

 

Each series will repay any loans used to acquire its property with proceeds generated from the closing of the offering of such series. No series will have any obligation to repay a loan incurred by our company to purchase a property for another series.

 

Going Concern

 

The company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming the company will continue as a going concern. The company is newly formed and has not generated revenue from operations. The company will require additional capital until revenue from operations are sufficient to cover operational costs. These matters raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

During the next 12 months, the company intends to fund operations through member advances and debt and/or equity financing. There are no assurances that management will be able to raise capital on terms acceptable to the company.  If it is unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, it may be required to reduce the scope of its planned development and operations, which could harm its business, financial condition and operating results. The company’s accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

 

Trend Information

 

The company has a limited operating history and has not generated revenue from intended operations. The company’s business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide along with local, state, and federal governmental policy decisions. A host of factors beyond the company’s control could cause fluctuations in these conditions, including but not limited to: recession, downturn or otherwise; government policies surrounding tenant rights; local ordinances where properties reside as a result of the coronavirus pandemic; travel restrictions; changes in the real estate market; and interest-rate fluctuations. Adverse developments in these general business and economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on the company’s financial condition and the results of its operations.

 

Impact of the COVID-19 Coronavirus Pandemic

 

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19, a pandemic. As we are just beginning our operations, COVID-19 has not had an impact on our business to date. The rapid development and fast-changing nature of the COVID-19 pandemic creates many unknowns that could have a future material impact on our operations and the operations of each of our series. The pandemic’s duration and severity and the extent of the adverse health impact on the general population and on the local population where our series properties are and will be located are among the unknowns. These, among other items, will likely impact the economy, the unemployment rate and our operations and could materially affect our future consolidated results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, investments and overall performance. For additional details, see Risk Factors.

INTEREST OF MANAGEMENT AND OTHERS IN CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

 

Existing Transactions

 

Property Management Agreement

 

Each Series has entered into or is expected to enter into a Property Management Agreement with Collab, the Managing Member of the company. See “The Company’s Business – Property Management Agreement with Collab” for a description of this agreement.

 

Real Estate Purchase

 

YSMD Series 2340 Hilgard will enter into a Purchase Agreement with YSMC LLC, an affiliated entity of the Managing Member, and the sole owner of 2340 Hilgard Ave LLC. The Agreement will provide for YSMD’s purchase of 2340 Hilgard Ave LLC, at a net purchase price of $1,820,000 (i.e., the asset price totaling $3,640,000 net of the outstanding loan amount totaling $1,820,000).

Conflicts of Interest

 

The company is subject to various conflicts of interest arising out of its relationship with Collab, the company’s Managing Member, and its affiliates. These conflicts are discussed below.

 

General

 

We do not have a policy that expressly prohibits our Managing Member or our and its directors, officers, security holders or affiliates from having a direct or indirect pecuniary interest in any asset to be acquired or disposed of by us or any Series or in any transaction to which we or any Series are a party or have an interest. Additionally, we do not have a policy that expressly prohibits any such persons from engaging for their own account in business activities of the types conducted by us. Specifically, our Operating Agreement does not prevent our Managing Member and its affiliates from engaging in additional fundraising, management or investment activities, some of which could compete with us. In the future, Here, any officers or directors of Collab and other affiliates of Collab may organize other real estate-related entities or provide real estate related services to us or other persons or entities.

 

Allocation of Acquisition Opportunities

 

From time to time, Collab may create new entities that will acquire real estate assets and make offers of securities to accredited investors, foreign investors and under Regulation D or Regulation A or otherwise. Collab will, in its sole discretion determine which entity will be responsible for acquiring a specific asset.

 

Allocation of the Company’s Affiliates’ Time

 

The company relies on Collab’s real estate professionals and other staff, who act on behalf of Collab and the company for the day-to-day operation of their respective businesses. Mr. Wang is the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and sole director of Collab, the Property Manager and the Managing Member and CEO of the company, as well as its Managing Member. As a result of his and Collabs staff’s interests in other Collab entities, the obligations to other investors and the fact that Mr. Wang and the Collab staff engage in and will continue to engage in other business activities, they will face conflicts of interest in allocating time among the company, Collab, other related entities and other business activities in which they are involved. However, the company believes that Collab and its affiliates have sufficient real estate professionals to fully discharge their responsibilities to the Collab entities for which they work.

 

45

 

 

Acquisitions of Properties by the Managing Member or its affiliates

 

Some or all of the series will acquire their properties from the Managing Member or from an affiliate of the Managing Member. Prior to a sale to a series, the Managing Member or an affiliate of the Managing Member may acquire a property, repair and improve the property. The Managing Member or its affiliate will then resell the property to a series at a value which may reflect a premium over the Managing Member’s or its affiliate’s investment in the property. Accordingly, because the Managing Member or its affiliate will be an interested party with respect to a sale of a property that it owns to a series, the Managing Member’s or affiliates interests in such a sale may not be aligned with the interests of the series or its investors. There can be no assurance that a property purchase price that a series will pay to the Managing Member will be comparable to that which a series might pay to an unaffiliated third party property seller.

 

Loans Repaid According to their Terms

 

The Managing Member anager and/or its affiliates may receive compensation from the company for providing loans, including, but not limited to, purchase mortgages, refinance mortgages, and construction lines of credit. Such loans, if any, will be on terms that the Manager believes to be no less favorable to the Company than generally available from third parties; however, loan terms will be established by the Manager in good faith and not as a result of arm’s length negotiations. Loan terms and amounts are difficult to determine at this time.

SECURITIES BEING OFFERED

 

The following descriptions of the company’s Series Interests, certain provisions of Delaware law, the Series Designation for each Series and the Operating Agreement are summaries and are qualified by reference to Delaware law, the Series Designation of the relevant Series and the Operating Agreement.

 

General

 

Title to each Underlying Asset

 

Title to the property comprising an Underlying Asset of a Series will be held by such Series.

 

Managing Member, Collab (USA) Capital LLC

 

Collab (USA) Capital LLC is the Managing Member of each Series.

 

Collab (USA) Capital LLC, is the Property Manager of each Series; provided, however, that in the discretion of the Managing Member, the Property Manager may be as otherwise stated in the Certificate of Designation for any Series.

 

The Managing Member may amend any of the terms of the Operating Agreement of YSMD or any Series Designation as it determines in its sole discretion. However, no amendment to the Operating Agreement may be made without the consent of the holders holding a majority of the outstanding Series Interests, that: (i) decreases the percentage of outstanding Series Interests required to take any action under the Agreement; (ii) materially adversely affects the rights of any of the members holding Series Interests (including adversely affecting the holders of any particular Series Interests as compared to holders of other Series Interests); (iii) modifies Section 11.1(a) of the Operating Agreement or gives any person the right to dissolve the company; or (iv) modifies the term of the company.

 

Distributions

 

Subject to Section 7.3 and Article XI of the Operating Agreement, as described in the Operating Agreement, and any Series Designation, we intend to distribute 100% of the Free Cash Flows of a Series, after reimbursing the Managing Member and the Property Manager for expenses incurred on behalf of a Series, plus accrued interest, and creating such reserves as the Managing Member deems necessary. A Series’ net income, and therefore, its Free Cash Flows, will be reduced by the expenses of that Series, including the following fees paid to our Managing Member and Property Manager, unless indicated in the relevant Series Designation or property management agreement:

 

  · Property Management Fee: We generally seek to set these fees to be comparable to prevailing market rates for the management of student housing rental properties in the relevant geographic area. Currently these fees amount to 8% of the Gross Receipts of the Series.

 

  · Asset Management Fee: A quarterly fee of 0.5% (2% annually) of the Asset Value of the Series.

 

  · Sourcing Fee: Any portion of the sourcing fee for the Series that is not funded by the proceeds of the Series offering and that is booked as an expenses of the Series, at the company and Managing Member’s discretion. Please see “Use of Proceeds” for the sourcing fee applicable to each specific Series.

 

As of the date of this Offering Circular, no series of YSMD has made any distributions.

 

We determined these fees internally without any independent assessment of comparable market fees. As a result, they may be higher than those available from unaffiliated third parties. After payment of all of the above fees, all other cash expenses and capital expenditures by the Series, it may not generate sufficient revenue to produce any Free Cash Flows or make distribution to investors.

 

47

 

 

will be applied and distributed 100% to the members of such Series on a pro rata basis (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include the Managing Member or its affiliates that hold Series Interests). We intend to make monthly distributions of Free Cash Flow to the extent that the Series generates sufficient cash to do so.

 

“Free Cash Flows” means any available cash for distribution generated from the net income received by a Series, as determined by the Managing Member to be in the nature of income as defined by U.S. GAAP, plus (i) any change in the net working capital (as shown on the balance sheet of such Series) (ii) any amortization of the relevant Underlying Asset (as shown on the income statement of such Series) and (iii) any depreciation of the relevant Underlying Asset (as shown on the income statement of such Series) and (iv) any other non-cash Operating Expenses less (a) any capital expenditure related to the Underlying Asset (as shown on the cash flow statement of such Series) (b) any other liabilities or obligations of the Series, including interest payments on debt obligations and tax liabilities, in each case to the extent not already paid or provided for and (c) upon the termination and winding up of a Series or the Company, all costs and expenses incidental to such termination and winding as allocated to the relevant Series in accordance with the terms of the Operating Agreement.

 

“Asset Value” at any date means the fair market value of assets in a Series representing the purchase price that a willing buyer having all relevant knowledge would pay a willing seller for such assets in an arm’s length transaction, determined by the Managing Member in its sole discretion.

 

We do not intend to obtain a third-party valuation of the assets of each Series to determine “Asset Value”.

 

Restrictions on Transfer

 

No Transfer of any Series Interest, whether voluntary or involuntary, will be valid or effective, and no transferee will become a substituted Member, unless the written consent of the Managing Member has been obtained, which consent may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. Furthermore, no transfer of any Series Interests, whether voluntary or involuntary, will be valid or effective unless the Managing Member determines, after consultation with legal counsel acting for the company that such transfer will not, unless waived by the Managing Member:

 

  · result in the transferee directly or indirectly owning in excess of 19.9% of the aggregate outstanding Series Interests;

 

  · result in there being 2,000 or more beneficial owners (as such term is used under the Exchange Act) or 500 or more beneficial owners that are not accredited investors (as defined under the Securities Act) of any Series, as specified in Section 12(g)(1)(A)(ii) of the Exchange Act, unless the Series Interests have been registered under the Exchange Act or the company is otherwise an Exchange Act reporting company;

 

  · cause all or any portion of the assets of the Company or any Series to constitute plan assets for purposes of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974;

48

 

 

Redemption

 

Members shall not have any right to resign or redeem their Series Interests from the Company; provided that (i) when a transferee of a Member’s Series Interests becomes a record holder of such Interests, such transferring Member shall cease to be a Member of the company with respect to the Interests so transferred and (ii) Members of a Series shall cease to be Members of such Series when such Series is finally liquidated in accordance with the Operating Agreement.

 

Voting Rights

 

Investors have limited voting rights, and substantial powers are delegated to our Managing Member under Section 5.1 of the company’s Operating Agreement for which a vote of the Series Interest holders is not required.

 

When submitting a matter of vote, a holder of a Series Interest, is entitled to one vote per Series Interest on any and all matters submitted for the consent or approval of members generally.

The affirmative vote of at least two thirds of the total votes that may be cast by all outstanding Series Interests, voting together as a class, may elect to remove the Managing Member at any time if the Managing Member is found by a non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have committed fraud in connection with a Series or the company and which has a material adverse effect the company. If the Managing Member is so removed, the members, by a plurality vote, may appoint a replacement managing member or approve the liquidation and termination of the company and each Series in accordance with the provisions of Article X of the Operating Agreement. In the event of the resignation of the Managing Member, the Managing Member shall nominate a successor Managing Member and the vote of a majority of the outstanding Series Interests shall be required to elect such successor Managing Member.

ONGOING REPORTING AND SUPPLEMENTS TO THIS OFFERING CIRCULAR

 

The company will be required to make annual and semi-annual filings with the SEC. The company will make annual filings on Form 1-K, which will be due by the end of April each year and will include audited financial statements for the previous fiscal year. The company will make semi-annual filings on Form 1-SA, which will be due by September 28 each year, which will include unaudited financial statements for the six months to June 30. The company will also file a Form 1-U to announce important events such as the loss of a senior officer, a change in auditors, or certain types of capital-raising. The company will be required to keep making these reports unless it files a Form 1-Z to exit the reporting system, which it will only be able to do if it has less than 300 unitholders of record and have filed at least one Form 1-K.

 

At least every 12 months, the company will file a post-qualification amendment to the offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part, to include the company’s recent financial statements.

 

The company may supplement the information in this Offering Circular by filing a Supplement with the SEC.

 

All these filings will be available on the SEC’s EDGAR filing system. You should read all the available information before investing.

 

Relaxed Ongoing Reporting Requirements

 

If the company becomes a public reporting company in the future, it will be required to publicly report on an ongoing basis as an “emerging growth company” (as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, which the company refers to as the JOBS Act) under the reporting rules set forth under the Exchange Act. For so long as the company remains an “emerging growth company,” the company may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other Exchange Act reporting companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including but not limited to:

 

  · not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

 

  · taking advantage of extensions of time to comply with certain new or revised financial accounting standards;

 

  · being permitted to comply with reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in the company’s periodic reports and proxy statements; and

 

  · being exempt from the requirement to hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and unit holder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

If the company becomes a public reporting company in the future, the company expects to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until it is no longer an emerging growth company. The company would remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, although if the market value of its Common Stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30 before that time, the company would cease to be an “emerging growth company” as of the following December 31.

 

If the company does not become a public reporting company under the Exchange Act for any reason, the company will be required to publicly report on an ongoing basis under the reporting rules set forth in Regulation A for Tier 2 issuers. The ongoing reporting requirements under Regulation A are more relaxed than for “emerging growth companies” under the Exchange Act. The differences include, but are not limited to, being required to file only annual and semi-annual reports, rather than annual and quarterly reports. Annual reports are due within 120 calendar days after the end of the issuer’s fiscal year, and semi-annual reports are due within 90 calendar days after the end of the first six months of the issuer’s fiscal year.

 

In either case, the company will be subject to ongoing public reporting requirements that are less rigorous than Exchange Act rules for companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” and its unitholders could receive less information than they might expect to receive from more mature public companies.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statement of YSMD, LLC (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheet as of February 2, 2022 (inception) and the related notes to the financial statement.

 

In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of February 2, 2022 (inception) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statement section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statement have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 5 to the financial statement, the Company has not yet commenced planning principal operations, has not yet generated revenues or profits, and plans to incur significant costs in pursuit of its capital financing plans. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 5. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statement

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statement in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of a financial statement that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the financial statement, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statement is available to be issued.

 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statement

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements, including omissions, are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statement.

 

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:

 

  · Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

 

  · Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement.

 

  · Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

 

  · Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statement.

 

  · Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT

As of February 2, 2022 (INCEPTION)

(Audited)

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

YSMD LLC (the “Company”) is a Delaware series limited liability company formed on February 2nd, 2022 under the laws of Delaware. The Company is managed by its managing member, Collab (USA) Capital LLC. The Company was formed to permit public investment in rental properties, each of which will be held by a separate property-owning subsidiary owned by a separate series of limited liability interests, or “Series”, that management intends to establish. As a Delaware series limited liability company, the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular Series are segregated and enforceable only against the assets of such Series, as provided under Delaware law.

 

As of February 2nd, 2022 (inception), the Company has not yet commenced operations. Once the Company commences its planned principal operations, it will incur significant additional expenses. The Company is dependent upon additional capital resources for the commencement of its planned principal operations and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure funding to commence the Company’s planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statement has been prepared using the accrual method of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The Company adopted the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statement and the footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company has a limited operating history. The Company's business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. A host of factors beyond the Company's control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include recession, downturn or otherwise, local competition or changes in consumer taste. These adverse conditions could affect the Company's financial condition and the results of its operations.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers short-term, highly liquid investment with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of February 2, 2022, the Company had no cash on hand and has not yet created a bank account.

 

Prepaid Expenses

 

Prepaid expenses consist of payments for goods or services yet to be received but expected to be received in the next fiscal year.

 

F-4

 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment will be recorded at cost. Expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When equipment is retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the balance sheet accounts and the resultant gain or loss is reflected in income. As of February 2, 2022, the Company had no property and equipment.

 

Depreciation will be provided using the straight-line method, based on useful lives of the assets.

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. The Company had no impairment as of February 2, 2022.

 

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company complies with the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 340-10-S99-1 with regards to offering costs. Prior to the completion of an offering, offering costs are capitalized. The deferred offering costs are charged to member’s equity/(deficit) upon the completion of an offering or to expense if the offering is not completed.  Offering costs include offering expense reimbursements and sourcing fees as noted below. The Company will reimburse the Manager for any offering costs incurred by the Manager from the proceeds from each Series offering.  As of February 2, 2022, the Manager has incurred $0 in offering expenses.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and such principles also establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value using the following definitions (from highest to lowest priority):

 

  · Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

  · Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

  · Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques requiring inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

There were no assets or liabilities requiring fair value measurement as of February 2, 2022.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and its related amendments (collectively known as “ASC 606”), effective at inception using the modified retrospective transition approach applied to all contracts. There were no cumulative impacts that were made. The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

  · Identification of a contract with a customer;

 

  · Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

  · Determination of the transaction price;

 

  · Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

  · Recognition of revenue when or as the performance obligations are satisfied.

 

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. As a practical expedient, the Company does not adjust the transaction price for the effects of a significant financing component if, at contract inception.

 

Expense Allocations

 

The Company is responsible for the costs and expenses attributable to the activities of the Series. Expenses will be allocated to the Series following an expense allocation policy determined and directed by the managing member.

 

Organizational Costs

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 720, organizational costs, including accounting fees, legal fee, and costs of incorporation, are expensed as incurred.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is a limited liability company, treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes with all income tax liabilities and/or benefits of the Company being passed through to the members. As such, no recognition of federal or state income taxes for the Company have been provided for in the accompanying financial statement.

 

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is unlikely that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company assesses its income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. In accordance with ASC 740-10, for those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, our policy will be to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit will be recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Earnings/(Loss) per Membership Interest

 

Upon completion of an offering, each Series intends to comply with accounting and disclosure requirement of ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” For each Series, earnings (loss) per membership interest (“EPMI”) will be computed by dividing net (loss) / income for a particular Series by the weighted average number of outstanding membership interests in that particular Series during the period.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, that requires organizations that lease assets, referred to as "lessees", to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will include qualitative and quantitative requirements. The new standard for nonpublic entities will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on the financial statement and related disclosures.

 

F-6

 

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been a number of ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact our financial statement.

 

NOTE 3 – MEMBER’S EQUITY

 

The Company is managed by Collab (USA) Capital LLC, a Delaware corporation and managing member of the Company (the “Manager”). Pursuant to the terms of the operating agreement, the Manager will provide certain management and advisory services, as well as management team and appropriate support personnel to the Company and to each of the Company’s series and subsidiaries, if any.

 

The Manager will be responsible for directing the management of our business and affairs, managing our day-to-day affairs, and implementing our investment strategy. The Manager has a unilateral ability to amend the operating agreement and the allocation policy in certain circumstances without the consent of the investors. The investors only have limited voting rights with respect to the Series in which they are invested.

 

The Manager shall, as of the completion of the initial offering of a Series' interests, hold at least 5% of the Series' interests.

 

Pursuant to the operating agreement, the Manager will receive fees and expense reimbursements for services relating to the Company’s offering, investment management, and management of properties.

 

The Manager has sole discretion in determining what distributions, if any, are made to interest holders except as otherwise limited by law or the operating agreement. The Company expects the Manager to make distributions on a monthly basis. However, the Manager may change the timing of distributions or determine that no distributions shall be made, in its sole discretion. Amounts available for distribution following liquidation of a series will be distributed first ratably to such Series' interest holders until 100% of the capital contributions are returned, and then 20% to the managing member and 80% to the Series' interest holders.

 

The debts, obligations, and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, are solely the debts, obligations, and liabilities of the Company, and no member of the Company is obligated personally for any such debt, obligation, or liability.

 

NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

The Manager will receive from each Series an asset management fee, payable quarterly in arrears, equal to 0.5% of asset value as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter.

 

The Company intends to enter into an agreement with its Manager where as compensation for the services provided by the property manager, each series will be charged a property management fee equal to eight percent (8%) of gross receipts on a Series property. To the extent that, under the terms of a specific property management agreement, the property manager is paid a fee that is less than the eight percent (8%) charged to the Series, the Manager will receive the difference as income.

 

The Company intends to enter into an agreement with its Manager where upon the disposition and sale of a Series property, each Series will pay to the Manager a property disposition fee equal to 2% of the disposition price that will cover property sale expenses such as brokerage commissions, and title, escrow and closing costs. To the extent that the actual property disposition fees are less than the amount charged to the Series, the Manager will receive the difference as income.

 

If a Series raises the maximum offering amount, each Series will pay to the Manager a sourcing fee up to 5% of the asset price of the relevant property acquired by the Series.

 

Each Series will pay a renovation management fee, as applicable, to the Manager equal to 5.5% of the total capital improvements costs for renovation management.

NOTE 5 – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying balance sheet has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is a business that has not commenced planned principal operations, plans to incur significant costs in pursuit of its capital financing plans, and has not generated any revenues or profits as of February 2, 2022 (inception). These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in the next twelve months is dependent upon its ability to obtain capital financing from investors sufficient to meet current and future obligations and deploy such capital to produce profitable operating results. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The balance sheet does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 6 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Management has evaluated subsequent events through August 31, 2022, the date the financial statement was available to be issued. Based on this evaluation, no additional material events were identified which require adjustment or disclosure in the financial statement.

YSMD LLC is a Delaware series limited liability company formed on February 2, 2022 under the laws of Delaware.

2340 Hilgard Avenue LLC

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of 2340 Hilgard Avenue LLC (the “Company”) which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 and the related statement of operations, changes in member’s equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 8 to the financial statements, The Company had an accumulated deficit of $20,305 since inception and had limited cash flows from operations and minimal cash of $100,288 as of December 31, 2021. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 8. 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.

 

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for 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.

 

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements, including omissions, are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

 

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:

 

·Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

 

·Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

 

·Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

 

·Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

·Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021

(Audited)

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

2340 Hilgard Avenue LLC (which may be referred to as the “Company”, “we,” “us,” or “our”) was registered in California on June 5, 2020. The Company was formed to own 2340 Hilgard Avenue, a 12-bedroom student housing property located in Berkeley, CA. The Company is managed by its sole and managing member, YSMC, LLC.

 

YSMD LLC is a Delaware series limited liability company formed on February 2, 2022 under the laws of Delaware. YSMD LLC was formed to permit public investment in rental properties, each of which will be held by a separate property-owning subsidiary owned by a separate series of limited liability interests, or “Series”, that management intends to establish. YSMD LLC intends to form YSMD – Series Hilgard, a series of YSMD, LLC, for the purpose of owning the Company.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

 

Fiscal Year

 

The Company has adopted the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, useful lives of property and equipment. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company has a limited operating history. The Company's business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. A host of factors beyond the Company's control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include recession, downturn or otherwise, local competition or changes in consumer taste. These adverse conditions could affect the Company's financial condition and the results of its operations.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America, which it believes to be credit worthy. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures balances up to $250,000. At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash consists of funds held in the Company’s checking account. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $100,288 of cash on hand.

 

F-30

 

 


Receivables and Credit Policy

 

Trade receivables from tenants are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms, primarily requiring pre-payment before services are rendered. Trade receivables are stated at the amount billed to the customer. Payments of trade receivables are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoice. The Company, by policy, routinely assesses the financial strength of its customer. As a result, the Company believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited, and it has not experienced significant write-downs in its accounts receivable balances.

 

As of December 31, 2021 the Company had $24,740 in accounts receivable.

 

Real Estate Assets

 

Property and equipment exist in the form of the building and related improvements, land, equipment and appliances for the property and are recorded at cost. Expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to the capacity and value or extend the useful life of the property are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense. When the property itself or equipment used at the property is retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and the resultant gain or loss is reflected in income.

 

Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method, based on useful lives of the assets which is five years for appliances, fifteen years for leasehold improvements, and 27 years for the building.

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the net realizable value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. Based on this assessment there was no impairment for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and such principles also establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value using the following definitions (from highest to lowest priority):

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques requiring inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

The carrying values of the Company’s assets and liabilities approximate their fair values.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is a limited liability company. Accordingly, under the Internal Revenue Code, all taxable income or loss flows through to its members. Therefore, no provision for income tax has been recorded in these financial statements. Income from the Company is reported and taxed to the members on their individual tax returns.

 

The Company complies with FASB ASC 740 for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes that its income tax positions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position. The Company may in the future become subject to federal, state and local income taxation though it has not been since its inception.  The Company is not presently subject to any income tax audit in any taxing jurisdiction.

 

F-31

 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and its related amendments (collectively known as “ASC 606”), effective at its inception.  The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

·      Identification of a contract with a customer;

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2019, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, that requires organizations that lease assets, referred to as "lessees", to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. ASU 2019-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will include qualitative and quantitative requirements. The new standard for nonpublic entities will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and early application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on the financial statements and related disclosures.

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been a number of ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Leasing and management fees for the year ended December 31, 2021 amounted to $10,151 and $12,856, respectively.

 

Related party payable totaled $7,447 as of December 31, 2021.

 

NOTE 6 – MEMBER’S EQUITY

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, member contributions totaled $0 to the Company. In 2021, the Company distributed $0 to its member. As of December 31, 2021 the Company had $987,316 of contributed investment from its sole member.

NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company is not currently involved with and does not know of any pending or threatening litigation against the Company as of December 31, 2021.

 

COVID-19

 

In January 2020, the World Health Organization has declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern,” which continues to spread throughout the world and has adversely impacted global commercial activity and contributed to significant declines and volatility in financial markets. The coronavirus outbreak and government responses are creating disruption in global supply chains and adversely impacting many industries. The outbreak could have a continued material adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate material adverse impact of the coronavirus outbreak. Nevertheless, the outbreak presents uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company, its performance, and its financial results.

 

NOTE 8 – GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $20,305 since inception and had limited cash flows from operations and minimal cash of $100,288 as of December 31, 2021. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and/or to obtain additional capital financing. Through the date the financial statements were available to be issued, the Company has been primarily financed through the issuance of membership interests and loans. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF JUNE 30, 2022 AND DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND FOR THE SIX-MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 2022 AND 2021

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

2340 Hilgard Avenue LLC (which may be referred to as the “Company”, “we,” “us,” or “our”) was registered in California on June 5, 2020. The Company was formed to own 2340 Hilgard Avenue, a 12-bedroom student housing property located in Berkeley, CA. The Company is managed by its sole and managing member, YSMC, LLC.

 

YSMD LLC is a Delaware series limited liability company formed on February 2, 2022 under the laws of Delaware. YSMD LLC was formed to permit public investment in rental properties, each of which will be held by a separate property-owning subsidiary owned by a separate series of limited liability interests, or “Series”, that management intends to establish. YSMD LLC intends to form YSMD – Series Hilgard, a series of YSMD, LLC, for the purpose of owning the Company.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

 

Fiscal Year

 

The Company has adopted the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, useful lives of property and equipment. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company has a limited operating history. The Company's business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. A host of factors beyond the Company's control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include recession, downturn or otherwise, local competition or changes in consumer taste. These adverse conditions could affect the Company's financial condition and the results of its operations.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America, which it believes to be credit worthy. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures balances up to $250,000. At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash consists of funds held in the Company’s checking account. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $21,879 and $100,288, respectively, of cash on hand.

 

F-40

 

 

Receivables and Credit Policy

 

Trade receivables from tenants are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms, primarily requiring pre-payment before services are rendered. Trade receivables are stated at the amount billed to the customer. Payments of trade receivables are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoice. The Company, by policy, routinely assesses the financial strength of its customer. As a result, the Company believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited, and it has not experienced significant write-downs in its accounts receivable balances.

 

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $17,349 and $24,740, respectively, in accounts receivable.

 

Real Estate Assets

 

Property and equipment exist in the form of the building and related improvements, land, equipment and appliances for the property and are recorded at cost. Expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to the capacity and value or extend the useful life of the property are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense. When the property itself or equipment used at the property is retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and the resultant gain or loss is reflected in income.

 

Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method, based on useful lives of the assets which is five years for appliances, fifteen years for leasehold improvements, and 27 years for the building.

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the net realizable value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. Based on this assessment there was no impairment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and such principles also establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value using the following definitions (from highest to lowest priority):

 

·Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

·Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

·Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques requiring inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

The carrying values of the Company’s assets and liabilities approximate their fair values.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is a limited liability company. Accordingly, under the Internal Revenue Code, all taxable income or loss flows through to its members. Therefore, no provision for income tax has been recorded in these financial statements. Income from the Company is reported and taxed to the members on their individual tax returns.

 

The Company complies with FASB ASC 740 for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes that its income tax positions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position. The Company may in the future become subject to federal, state and local income taxation though it has not been since its inception.  The Company is not presently subject to any income tax audit in any taxing jurisdiction.

 

F-41

 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and its related amendments (collectively known as “ASC 606”), effective at its inception.  The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

·      Identification of a contract with a customer;

 

·      Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

·      Determination of the transaction price;

 

·      Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

·      Recognition of revenue when or as the performance obligations are satisfied.

 

Revenues are generated at the Company level. Rental revenue, net of concessions (if any), will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. Rent paid in advance is recorded to unearned revenues on the balance sheets.

 

Organizational Costs

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 720, organizational costs, including accounting fees, legal fee, and costs of incorporation, are expensed as incurred.

 

Advertising

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2019, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, that requires organizations that lease assets, referred to as "lessees", to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. ASU 2019-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will include qualitative and quantitative requirements. The new standard for nonpublic entities will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and early application is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2022 and it did not have any effect on its financial statements.

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been a number of ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

COVID-19

 

In January 2020, the World Health Organization has declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern,” which continues to spread throughout the world and has adversely impacted global commercial activity and contributed to significant declines and volatility in financial markets. The coronavirus outbreak and government responses are creating disruption in global supply chains and adversely impacting many industries. The outbreak could have a continued material adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate material adverse impact of the coronavirus outbreak. Nevertheless, the outbreak presents uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company, its performance, and its financial results.

NOTE 8 – GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $14,027 since inception and had limited cash flows from operations and minimal cash of $21,879 as of June 30, 2022. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and/or to obtain additional capital financing. Through the date the financial statements were available to be issued, the Company has been primarily financed through the issuance of membership interests and loans. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management’s Evaluation

Whereas, Dalmore is a registered broker-dealer providing services in the equity and debt securities market, including offerings conducted via exemptions from registration with the SEC such as Reg D 506(b), 506(c), Regulation A, Reg CF and others;

 

Whereas, Client is offering securities directly to the public in an offering exempt from registration under Regulation A (the “Offering”); and

 

Whereas, Client recognizes the benefit of having Dalmore as a service provider for investors who participate in the Offering (“Investors”).

 

Now, Therefore, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

If Client defaults in performing the obligations under this Agreement, the Agreement may be terminated (i) upon sixty (60) days written notice if Client fails to perform or observe any material term, covenant or condition to be performed or observed by it under this Agreement and such failure continues to be unremedied, (ii) upon written notice, if any material representation or warranty made by either Provider or Client proves to be incorrect at any time in any material respect, (iii) in order to comply with a Legal Requirement, if compliance cannot be timely achieved using commercially reasonable efforts, after providing as much notice as practicable, or (iv) upon thirty (30) days’ written notice if Client or Dalmore commences a voluntary proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief, or is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or has entered against it a final and unappealable order for relief, under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or either party executes and delivers a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors. The description in this section of specific remedies will not exclude the availability of any other remedies. Any delay or failure by Client to exercise any right, power, remedy or privilege will not be construed to be a waiver of such right, power, remedy or privilege or to limit the exercise of such right, power, remedy or privilege. No single, partial or other exercise of any such right, power, remedy or privilege will preclude the further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege.

(i)       acquire any asset or service for an amount equal to or greater than 1% of the value of the Asset as of such date, individually, or 3% of the value of the Asset as of such date, in the aggregate without the prior consent of the Managing Member of the Company; or

If Receiving Party or any of its Representatives is compelled by Law to disclose any Confidential Information then, to the extent permitted by Law, Receiving Party shall: (a) promptly, and prior to such disclosure, notify Disclosing Party in writing of such requirement so that Disclosing Party can seek a protective order or other remedy or waive its rights under Section 9.3; and (b) provide reasonable assistance to Disclosing Party in opposing such disclosure or seeking a protective order or other limitations on disclosure.

The foregoing obligation does not apply to any Action or Losses arising out of or relating to any:

8

12.2        Licensee Indemnification. Licensee shall and shall cause its affiliates, jointly and severally, to release, indemnify, defend and hold harmless NCIT and its Subcontractors and their Representatives and successors and assigns (each, a “NCIT Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Losses incurred by such NCIT Indemnitee in connection with any Action regardless of the source that arises out of or relates to this Agreement or any of the following:

 

(a)              Licensee Data, including any Processing of Licensee Data by or on behalf of NCIT in accordance with this Agreement;

The Indemnitor shall immediately take control of the defense and investigation of such Action and shall employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to handle and defend the same, at the Indemnitor’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnitee’s failure to perform any obligations under this Section 12.3 will not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations under this Section 12 except to the extent that the Indemnitor can demonstrate that it has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnitee may participate in and observe the proceedings at its own cost and expense with counsel of its own choosing.

 

12.4        Mitigation. If any of the Services or NCIT Materials are, or in NCIT’s opinion are likely to be, claimed to infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate any third party Intellectual Property Right, or if Licensee’s or any Authorized User’s use of the Services or NCIT Materials is enjoined or threatened to be enjoined, NCIT may, at its option:

 

(a)              at NCIT’s sole cost and expense, obtain the right for Licensee to continue to use the Services and NCIT Materials materially as contemplated by this Agreement;

 

(b)              at NCIT’s sole cost and expense, modify or replace the Services and NCIT Materials, in whole or in part, to seek to make the Services and NCIT Materials (as so modified or replaced) non-infringing, while providing substantially equivalent features and functionality, in which case such modifications or replacements will constitute Services and NCIT Materials, as applicable, under this Agreement; or

 

(c)               by written notice to Licensee, terminate this Agreement and require Licensee to immediately cease any use of and destroy or return all copies of the Services and NCIT Materials in its possession or under its control.

 

THIS SECTION 12 SETS FORTH LICENSEE’S SOLE REMEDIES AND NCIT’S SOLE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION FOR ANY ACTUAL, THREATENED OR ALLEGED CLAIMS THAT THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF (INCLUDING THE SERVICES AND NCIT MATERIALS) INFRINGES, MISAPPROPRIATES OR OTHERWISE VIOLATES ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT.

15.11        Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would require or permit the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding, Issuer Party will not be responsible for any Losses that are finally judicially determined by unappealed or non-appealable order pursuant to Section 20(a) to have resulted primarily from NCPS’s fraud or gross negligence, and NCPS agrees to immediately refund any payments made to an NCPS Party upon such determination. “Losses” means any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs or expenses of whatever kind, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, the costs of enforcing any right hereunder, the costs of pursuing any insurance providers, the costs of collection and the costs of defending against or appearing as a witness, whether direct, indirect, consequential or otherwise.

(b)            In the event that NCPS performs any service not specifically provided hereinabove, or that there is any assignment or attachment of any interest in the subject matter of this escrow or any modification thereof, or that any controversy arises hereunder, or that NCPS is made a party to, or intervenes in, any dispute pertaining to this escrow or the subject matter hereof, NCPS shall be reasonably compensated therefor and reimbursed for all costs and expenses occasioned thereby; and Issuer Party hereto agree jointly and severally to pay the same and to jointly and severally and at their own cost and expense release, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the NCPS Parties pursuant to subsection (a) above, it being understood and agreed that NCPS may interplead the subject matter of this escrow into any court of competent jurisdiction, and the act of such interpleader shall immediately relieve NCPS of any duties, liabilities or responsibilities.

 

(c)            For the sole purpose of enforcing and otherwise giving effect to the provisions of this Section 9, Issuer Party hereby consents to personal jurisdiction and service and venue in any court in which any claim that is subject to this Agreement is brought against any NCPS Party.

 

(d)            If an Action is commenced or threatened and is ultimately settled, Issuer Party shall use its best efforts to cause NCPS, by name, and the other NCPS Parties, by description, to be included in any release or settlement agreement, whether or not NCPS and the other NCPS Parties are named as defendants in such Action.

 

10.            Compensation to NCPS.

 

(a)            Issuer Party shall pay or cause to be paid to NCPS for its services as the facilitator of escrow as outlined in Exhibit B, which may be updated from time to time by NCPS by providing written notice to Issuer Party. Issuer Party’s obligation to pay such fees to NCPS and reimburse NCPS for such expenses is not conditioned upon a successful closing. Upon Issuer Party’s request, NCPS will provide Issuer Party with copies of all relevant invoices, receipts or other evidence of such expenses. The obligations of Issuer Party under this Section 10 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of NCPS.

 

(b)            All of the compensation and reimbursement obligations shall be payable by Issuer Party upon demand by NCPS and will be charged automatically by NCPS to the credit card or other payment method indicated on the signature page to this Agreement or as otherwise agreed by the Parties. Issuer Party consents to NCPS retaining and using Issuer Party’s payment information for future invoices and as provided in this Agreement. Issuer Party agrees and acknowledges that NCPS and its third party vendors may retain and use Issuer Party’s payment information to facilitate the payments provided for in this Agreement. Issuer Party agrees to provide NCPS written notice (which may be via email) of any update or changes to Issuer Party’s payment information. Absent current payment information, Issuer Party shall make, or cause to be made, all payments to NCPS within 10 days of receiving an invoice therefor. All payments made to NCPS shall be in US dollars in immediately available funds.

 

(c)            If Issuer Party fails to make any payment when due then, in addition to all other remedies that may be available: (a) NCPS may charge interest on the past due amount at the rate of 1.5% per month, calculated daily and compounded monthly, or if lower, the highest rate permitted under Law, which Issuer Party shall pay; such interest may accrue after as well as before any judgment relating to collection of the amount due; and (b) Issuer Party shall reimburse, or cause to be reimbursed, NCPS for all costs incurred by NCPS in collecting any late payments or interest, including attorneys’ fees, court costs and collection agency fees; provided that cumulative late payments are subject to the overall limits as may be required by Law as set forth in Exhibit B.

 

(d)            NCPS is authorized to and may disburse from time to time, to itself or to any NCPS Party from the Escrow Funds (but only to the extent of Issuer Party’s rights thereto), the amount of any compensation and reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses due and payable hereunder (including any amount to which NCPS or any NCPS Party is entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to Section 9 hereof). NCPS shall notify Issuer Party of any disbursement from the Escrow Funds to itself or to any NCPS Party in respect of any compensation or reimbursement hereunder and shall furnish to Issuer copies of all related invoices and other statements. Notwithstanding, no disbursement shall be made pursuant to this subsection until the Minimum Offering has been met and otherwise in compliance with Law, including, without limitation, Rule 15c2-4 of the Exchange Act and related SEC guidance and FINRA rules.

(e)            Issuer Party hereby grants to NCPS and the NCPS Parties a security interest in and lien upon the Escrow Funds (to the extent of Issuer Party’s rights thereto) to secure all obligations hereunder, and NCPS and the NCPS Parties shall have the right to offset the amount of any compensation or reimbursement due any of them hereunder (including any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9 hereof) against the Escrow Funds (to the extent of Issuer’s rights thereto.) If for any reason the Escrow Funds available to NCPS and the NCPS Parties pursuant to such security interest or right of offset are insufficient to cover such compensation and reimbursement, Issuer Party shall promptly pay such amounts to NCPS and the NCPS Parties upon receipt of an itemized invoice. Notwithstanding, no security interest or offset shall be granted pursuant to this subsection until the Minimum Offering has been met and otherwise in compliance with Law, including, without limitation, Rule 15c2-4 of the Exchange Act and related SEC guidance and FINRA rules.

 

11.            Representations and Warranties.

(i)            Issuer Party is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state where it was formed. Issuer Party has all requisite power and authority to own those properties and conduct those businesses presently owned or conducted by it. Issuer Party is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions in which its ownership of property or the character of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect on Issuer Party or Issuer Party’s business.

 

(ii)            Issuer Party has full power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly executed by Issuer Party and constitutes the legal, valid, binding, and enforceable obligation of Issuer Party, enforceable against Issuer Party in accordance with its terms. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does not and will not: (A) conflict with or violate any of the terms of any organizational or governance document, stakeholder agreement, any court order or administrative ruling or decree to which it is a party or any of its property is subject, any agreement, contract, indenture, or other binding arrangement to which it is a party or any of its property is subject or any Law; or (B) conflict with, or result in a breach or termination of any of the terms of, or result in the acceleration of any indebtedness or obligations under, any agreement, obligation or instrument by which Issuer Party is bound or to which any property of Issuer Party is subject, or constitute a default thereunder.

Issuer Party shall comply with all Law in connection with the offering of the Securities. By this Agreement, NCPS accepts no other role and assumes no other responsibilities related to the Offering, including, without limitation, managing broker-dealer, placement agent, selling group member or referring broker-dealer.

 

(iv)            Issuer Party has the obligation to, and shall, determine a Subscriber’s suitability to participate in the Offering, make sure the Offering complies with Law and the Offering Document, verify a Subscriber’s identity and perform anti-money laundering, know your customer and any other due diligence in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Offering. The Offering and any offer or sale in the Offering complies with or is exempt from all applicable registrations or qualification requirements, including, without limitation, those of the SEC or state securities regulatory authorities.

 

(v)            No person or entity other than the Parties and the prospective Subscribers have, or shall have, any lien, claim or security interest in the Escrow Funds or any part thereof. 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 Funds or any part thereof.

(vi)            Any deposit with NCPS by NCPS and/or Issuer Party of Cash Investment Instruments pursuant to Section 3 shall be deemed a representation and warranty by Issuer Party that such Cash Investment Instrument represents a bona fide sale to such Subscriber of the amount of Securities set forth therein in accordance with the terms of the Offering Document.

 

(vii)          To the extent Issuer Party will be sharing personal or financial information of a third party with NCPS in connection with this Agreement, Issuer Party shall maintain and obtain the agreement of each such third party, which shall permit the sharing of such third party’s information with NCPS and its affiliates and service providers for NCPS and its affiliates and service providers to use, disclose and retain it in connection with this Agreement and the provision of the services hereunder and as required by Law. NCPS shall be a third party beneficiary to such agreement.

 

(viii)          Issuer Party’s representations, warranties and covenants are continuing and deemed to be reaffirmed each time Issuer Party provides NCPS with any instructions in connection with the Escrow Account. Issuer Party shall immediately notify NCPS if any representation, warranty or covenant ceases to be true, correct, accurate and complete.

 

(ix)            Issuer Party shall provide NCPS with immediate notice of any Action (as defined below), threatened Action or facts or circumstances that could lead to any Action involving Issuer Party, its agents or the Offering.

Issuer Party understands that it will be solely responsible for ensuring that any offering and any sale of securities complies with all Law. Issuer Party acknowledges and agrees that it will rely on its own judgment in using NCPS’s services.

 

13.            Survival. Notwithstanding the expiration or termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of NCPS as the facilitator of escrow, the Parties shall continue to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement that reasonably require some action or forbearance (or are required to implement such action or forbearance) after such expiration or termination, including, but not limited to, those related to fees and expenses, indemnities, limitations of and exclusions to NCPS’s liability, warranties, choice of law, jurisdiction and dispute resolution and such provisions shall remain operative and in full force and effect and shall survive any disbursement of Escrow Funds and the expiration or termination of this Agreement. Except as the context otherwise requires, all representations, warranties and covenants of Issuer Party contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to be representations, warranties and covenants during the Term, and such representations, warranties and covenants shall remain operative and in full force and effect and shall survive the sale of, and payment for, the securities and the expiration or termination of this Agreement to the extent required for the enforcement thereof.

14.            Assignment. Except as provided in Section 17, no Party shall assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights, or delegate or otherwise transfer any of its obligations or performance, under this Agreement, in each case whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or contract or otherwise, without each other Party’s prior written consent; provided NCPS may assign or otherwise transfer its rights, or delegate or otherwise transfer its obligations or performance, under this Agreement pursuant to Section 7 or to an affiliated provider of escrow services or agent without any other Party’s consent. Any purported assignment, delegation or transfer in violation of this Section 14 is void. Subject to this Section 14, this Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns irrespective of any change with regard to the name of or the personnel of any Party.

 

15.            Entirety. This Agreement incorporates by reference NCPS’s and its affiliates’ data privacy policies and website terms of use, as posted on NCPS’s and its affiliates’ website from time to time, with which Issuer Party shall, and shall cause issuers to, comply.

EXHIBIT B

 

FEES AND EXPENSES

 

Escrow Administration Fee:  $500 set-up and administration for 12 months (or partial period); $250 for each additional 12 months (or partial period)
Issuer Routable Account Number:  $150 per month
Out-of-Pocket Expenses:  Billed at cost
Check Disbursements:  $10.00 per check (incoming/outgoing)
Transactional Costs:  $100.00 for each additional escrow break
   $100.00 for each escrow amendment
   $50.00 for reprocessing a closing
Wire Disbursements:  $25.00 per domestic wire (incoming/outgoing)
   $45.00 per international wire (incoming/outgoing)
ACH Disbursements:  $25.00, plus 0.1% on the amount transferred
ACH Dispute/Chargeback:  $25.00 per reversal/chargeback
ACH Failure Return Fee:  $1.50 per failure/return

 

Issuer Party shall pay NCPS the Escrow Administration Fee upon execution of this Agreement. In the event the escrow is not funded, the Fee and all related expenses, including attorneys’ fees, remain due and payable, and once paid, will not be refunded. Annual fees cover a full year in advance, or any part thereof, and thus are not pro-rated in the year of termination.

 

Escrow Parties shall pay such fees immediately upon NCPS’s demand, or at NCPS’s option, NCPS may deduct such fees from any disbursement of Escrow Funds from the Escrow Account as provided in Section 10(d).

 

The fees quoted in this schedule apply to services ordinarily rendered in the administration of an Escrow Account and are subject to reasonable adjustment based on final review of documents, or when NCPS is called upon to undertake unusual duties or responsibilities, or as changes in law, procedures, or the cost of doing business demand. Services in addition to and not contemplated in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, document amendments and revisions, non-standard cash and/or investment transactions, calculations, notices and reports and legal fees, will be billed as extraordinary expenses and capped at $15,000.

 

Extraordinary fees are payable to NCPS for duties or responsibilities not expected to be incurred at the outset of the transaction, not routine or customary, and not incurred in the ordinary course of business. Payment of extraordinary fees is appropriate where particular inquiries, events or developments are unexpected, even if the possibility of such things could have been identified at the inception of the transaction.

 

Unless otherwise indicated, the above fees relate to the establishment of one escrow account. Additional sub-accounts governed by the same Escrow Agreement may incur an additional charge. Transaction costs include charges for wire transfers, checks, internal transfers and securities transactions.

 

NCPS may increase the amounts set forth in this Exhibit B by providing written notice to Issuer Party such increase to be effective as of such notice, and the fees will be deemed amended accordingly without further notice or consent; provided that Issuer Party may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 17.

 

NCPS may submit any payment information provided to it by an Issuer Party in connection with this Agreement against any fees due from such Issuer Party. Each Issuer Party consents to NCPS retaining and using such payment information for future invoices and as provided in this Agreement. All payments shall be in US dollars in immediately available funds.

 

*The fees payable under this Agreement, plus the other relevant fees, attributable to any public offering (including any interest thereon), shall be capped at an aggregate amount not to exceed as permitted by applicable FINRA rules.

 

ALL FEES AND EXPENSES PAID TO NCPS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.

We are acting as counsel to YSMD, LLC, a Delaware series limited liability company (the “Company”) with respect to the preparation and filing of an offering statement on Form 1-A. The offering statement and the pre-qualification amendments cover the contemplated sale of membership interest (the “Series Interests”) in each of the applicable series of the Company (each, a “Series”) as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (each, an “Offering”).

 

In connection with the opinion contained herein, we have examined the offering statement, as well as pre-qualification amendments, the certificate of formation of the Company and each amendment thereto through the date hereof, its Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, and the Series Designation of each such Series, as amended through the date hereof, as well as all other documents necessary to render an opinion. In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. 

 

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Series Interests of each Series being sold pursuant to the offering statement have been authorized by all necessary series limited liability company actions of the Company and, when issued in the manner described in the offering statement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

No opinion is being rendered hereby with respect to the truth and accuracy, or completeness of the offering statement or any portion thereof.
