Best Efforts Offering of Royalty Shares

Jukebox Hits Vol. 1 LLC (which we refer to as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a newly formed Delaware limited liability company established to facilitate and manage investors’ economic exposure to the Company’s contractual right to receive a portion of the royalties, fees, and other income streams (“Income Interests”) related to or derived from musical songs, compositions, sound recordings, portfolios or catalogs (“Music Assets”) from certain Purchase Agreements (including, without limitation, the schedule, exhibits and amendments thereto) described in this Preliminary Offering Circular (the “Offering Circular”) (each, a “Purchase Agreement,” collectively, the “Purchase Agreements”; and the rights of the Company under the Purchase Agreements, the “Royalty Rights”). The Company will facilitate and manage investors’ economic exposure to the Royalty Rights by issuing, for each series, the contractual right (the “Royalty Shares”) to receive a specified portion of royalties, fees, and other income streams embodied in the Income Interests we receive that relate to Royalty Rights for a specific Music Asset or a compilation of Music Assets (as applicable) set forth in the Royalty Shares Offering Table, to investors in this best-efforts offering of securities (this “Offering”) pursuant to Regulation A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company will convey, or cause to be conveyed, any Royalty Rights it receives pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and any Royalty Share Payments payable to Holders of Royalty Shares to a newly formed trust under state law (the “Trust”), which will hold the Royalty Rights for the benefit of Holders of Royalty Shares. We may collectively refer to the offerings of Royalty Shares in this Offering Circular as the “Offerings” and each, individually, as an “Offering.”

The Company will enter into one or more Purchase Agreements with Income Interest owners (“Income Interest Owners”). Royalty Shares will be issued in series, with each series relating to a specific Music Asset or a compilation of Music Assets (as applicable), and the Company’s corresponding Royalty Rights under the corresponding Purchase Agreement. Investors who hold Royalty Shares will be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of the amounts we actually receive from the specified Royalty Rights that correspond to such series of Royalty Shares (less any fees and expenses as further described herein), calculated based on the number of Royalty Shares of a particular series that an investor holds compared to the total outstanding number of Royalty Shares of such series (payment of such pro rata portion, “Royalty Share Payments”). Purchasing Royalty Shares does not confer to the investor any ownership in the Company, the Trust, or the underlying music portfolio containing the Music Assets.

The Company is managed by its sole member, Double Platinum Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Manager”). The Manager is a single-member Delaware limited liability company wholly owned by Jukebox Co., a Delaware corporation (“Jukebox Holding”). The Manager will be deemed to be a statutory underwriter under Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act by virtue of any assistance it may provide in the offer and sale of the Company’s securities in connection with the Offering.

The Royalty Shares will be made available for purchase through the Company’s associated persons on the web-based platform located at https://www.jkbx.com (the “JKBX Platform”). The JKBX Platform is owned by Jukebox Technology LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Jukebox Technology”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jukebox Holding. An investor may view Offering details on the JKBX Platform and, after establishing a user profile, sign transactional documents for Offerings online.

This Offering is being conducted by the Company as a direct public offering (i.e., without the benefit of the services of an SEC-registered broker-dealer) on a “best efforts” basis in a “Tier 2” Regulation A offering by associated persons of ours through the JKBX Platform. We expect to offer Royalty Shares in this Offering until we raise the maximum amount being offered, but there is no guarantee that any amount will be sold. The offering of each series of Royalty Shares described in and qualified pursuant to this Offering Circular will commence on the date on which the Offering is qualified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Subscriptions will be accepted on a rolling basis. The Company will close sales of Royalty Shares to investors in the Offering on an ongoing, continuous basis and will purchase Income Interests pursuant to each applicable Purchase Agreement in the form of Royalty Rights as proceeds from the Offering are received by the Company from investors through the sale of Royalty Shares in the Offering that correspond to such Royalty Rights. The Company is seeking to qualify an amount of Royalty Shares that it reasonably expects to be able to sell within two (2) years from the date of initial qualification. In any event, however, the Offering will not exceed three (3) years from the date of commencement in accordance with Rule 251(d)(3)(F) of Regulation A. The Company reserves the right to terminate the Offering for any reason at any time prior to the final closing. The minimum purchase threshold to participate in this Offering per investor per series is one (1) Royalty Share. Subscriptions, once received, are irrevocable by investors but can be rejected by us.

The Company has not engaged commissioned sales agents or broker-dealers and, in conjunction with its associated persons, plans to conduct and distribute the Offering through the JKBX Platform. The Company’s Manager is deemed to be an underwriter in the Offering solely for purposes of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. No other affiliated entity involved in the offer and sale of the Royalty Shares is currently a member firm of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Inc. (“FINRA”) and no person associated with us will be deemed to be a broker solely by reason of his or her participation in the sale of the Royalty Shares. Where appropriate, in order to conduct the offering, the Company intends to register with state securities regulators as an Issuer-Dealer or register one or more of its associated persons, including the Manager, where required, with state securities regulators as an Issuer-Agent. See “Plan of Distribution” in this Offering Circular for additional information.

We will serve as our own transfer agent and registrar in connection with this Offering.

We do not currently intend to list the Royalty Shares for trading on a national securities exchange. We may, in the future, facilitate secondary sales of Royalty Shares on an alternative trading system owned by an SEC-registered broker-dealer and a member of FINRA and the Securities Investors Protection Corporation (“SIPC”), referred to as the “ATS.” Additionally, we may engage the services of an SEC-registered broker-dealer and a member of FINRA and SIPC to provide Holders of the Royalty Shares with access to the ATS through the JKBX Platform. No assurance can be given that the Company, the ATS or any such broker-dealer we engage will be in a position to facilitate sales of the Royalty Shares or, in the event they are able to facilitate such sales, provide an effective means of selling your Royalty Shares or that the price at which any Royalty Shares may be sold through any broker-dealer or ATS with the assistance of such broker-dealer (or otherwise) will be reflective of the actual value of the Royalty Shares or the underlying Royalty Rights. If secondary sales of Royalty Shares are possible on the ATS, such sales may be subject to fees imposed by the ATS and/or the broker-dealer we engage or other broker-dealers operating on the ATS.

No sales of Royalty Shares will be made prior to the qualification of an offering statement by the SEC. After qualification of an offering statement, the Company may add additional Royalty Shares or series of Royalty Shares by post-qualification amendment to the offering statement. All Royalty Shares will be offered in all jurisdictions at the same price that is set forth in this Offering Circular. The initial offering prices of the Royalty Shares were determined by the Manager on an arbitrary basis, and such prices bear no relationship to our book or asset values, or to any other established criteria for valuing Royalty Shares.

The Company is offering to sell to investors each of the series of Royalty Shares set forth in this table and as further described in the “Royalty Shares Offering Table” beginning on page 65. Please see the “Royalty Shares Offering Table” beginning on page 65 for additional details of each series of Royalty Shares offered hereby, including the corresponding Royalty Rights, the number of Royalty Shares offered of each series, the price per Royalty Share of each series and the maximum amount that may be raised by the offering of each series of Royalty Shares.

(2)

Each Offering is being conducted by the Company as a direct public offering (i.e., without the benefit of the services of an SEC-registered broker-dealer) on a “best efforts” basis in a “Tier 2” Regulation A offering by the Company and its associated persons through the web-based JKBX Platform. In conducting this offering, associated persons of the Company, including its Manager, which is acting as a statutory underwriter, intend to rely on the exemption from (securities) broker registration requirements provided in Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rule 3a4-1. We expect to offer Royalty Shares in each Offering until we raise the maximum amount being offered, but there is no guarantee that any minimum amount will be sold. The Company has not engaged commissioned sales agents or broker-dealers. See the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 19 of this Offering Circular for additional information.

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, we encourage you to review Rule 251(d)(2)(i)(C) of Regulation A. For general information on investing, we encourage you to refer to https://www.investor.gov. We retain complete discretion to determine that subscribers are “qualified purchasers” (as defined in Regulation A under the Securities Act) in reliance on the information and representations provided to us regarding their financial situation.

 

 

An investment in the Royalty Shares involves a high degree of risk and should be made only by persons or entities able to bear the risk of and to withstand the total loss of their investment. Prospective investors should carefully consider and review the information under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page 3.

THE SEC DOES NOT PASS UPON THE MERITS OF OR GIVE ITS APPROVAL TO ANY SECURITIES OFFERED OR THE TERMS OF THE OFFERING, NOR DOES IT PASS UPON THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY OFFERING CIRCULAR OR OTHER SOLICITATION MATERIALS. THESE SECURITIES ARE OFFERED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT; HOWEVER, THE SEC HAS NOT MADE AN INDEPENDENT DETERMINATION THAT THE SECURITIES OFFERED ARE EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION.

WE EXPECT THAT OUR OPERATIONS WILL NOT CAUSE US TO MEET THE DEFINITION OF AN “INVESTMENT COMPANY” UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940, AS AMENDED (THE “1940 ACT”), BECAUSE (1) THE COMPANY WOULD BE EXCLUDED FROM THE DEFINITION OF AN INVESTMENT COMPANY UNDER EACH OF SECTIONS 3(B)(1) AND/OR 3(C)(5)(A) OF THE 1940 ACT, (2) AT ALL TIMES OUR SOLE ASSETS WILL CONSIST ONLY OF CASH AND THE ROYALTY RIGHTS, REFERRED TO HEREIN AS THE “ROYALTY RIGHTS,” NEITHER OF WHICH IS DEEMED TO BE A “SECURITY” FOR PURPOSES OF THE 1940 ACT, AND (3) AT ALL TIMES WE WILL NOT BE ENGAGED PRIMARILY IN OWNING, HOLDING, INVESTING OR TRADING IN “SECURITIES” (AS SUCH TERM IS USED FOR PURPOSES OF THE 1940 ACT).

This Offering Circular is part of an offering statement that we filed with the SEC, using a continuous offering process pursuant to Rule 251(d)(3) of Regulation A, meaning that while the offering of securities is continuous, active sales of securities

may happen sporadically over the term of the Offering. Further, the acceptance of subscriptions via the JKBX Platform may be briefly paused at times to allow us to process and settle subscriptions that have been received effectively and accurately. Periodically, we may provide an Offering Circular supplement that may add, update or change information contained in this Offering Circular. Any statement that we make in this Offering Circular will be modified or superseded by any inconsistent statement made by us in a subsequent Offering Circular supplement. The offering statement we filed with the SEC includes exhibits that provide more detailed descriptions of the matters discussed in this Offering Circular. You should read this Offering Circular and the related exhibits filed with the SEC and any Offering Circular supplement, together with additional information contained in our annual reports, semi-annual reports and other reports and information statements that we will file periodically with the SEC. See the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” below for more details.

Our principal office is located at 10000 Washington Blvd., Suite 07-134, Culver City, CA 90232 and our phone number is [       ]. Information about the Company and its affiliated entities may be found on the JKBX Platform at https://www.jkbx.com.

STATE LAW EXEMPTION AND PURCHASE RESTRICTIONS

The Royalty Shares are being offered and sold only to “qualified purchasers” (as defined in Regulation A under the Securities Act). As a Tier 2 offering pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act, this Offering is exempt from state law “Blue Sky” review, subject to meeting certain state filing requirements and complying with certain anti-fraud provisions, to the extent that the Royalty Shares offered hereby are offered and sold only to “qualified purchasers” or at a time when the Royalty Shares are listed on a national securities exchange. “Qualified purchasers” include: (i) “accredited investors” under Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act and (ii) all other investors so long as their investment in the Royalty Shares does not represent more than 10% of the greater of their annual income or net worth (for natural persons) or 10% of the greater of annual revenue or net assets at fiscal year-end (for non-natural persons). Accordingly, we reserve the right to reject any investor’s subscription in whole or in part for any reason, including if we determine in our sole and absolute discretion that such investor is not a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Regulation A.

To determine whether a potential investor is an “accredited investor” for purposes of satisfying one of the tests in the “qualified purchaser” definition, the investor must be a natural person who:

 

1.

has a net worth, or joint net worth with the person’s spouse or spousal equivalent, that exceeds $1,000,000 at the time of the purchase, excluding the value of the primary residence of such person; or

 

2.

had earned income exceeding $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with a spouse or spousal equivalent exceeding $300,000 for those years and has a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current year; or

 

3.

is holding in good standing one or more professional certifications or designations or credentials from an accredited educational institution that the SEC has designated as qualifying an individual for accredited investor status; or

 

4.

is a “family client,” as defined by the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, of a family office meeting the requirements in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D and whose prospective investment in the issuer is directed by such family office pursuant to Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.

For purposes of determining whether a potential investor is a “qualified purchaser,” annual income and net worth should be calculated as provided in the “accredited investor” definition under Rule 501 of Regulation D. In particular, net worth in all cases should be calculated excluding the value of an investor’s home, home furnishings and automobiles.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The initial offering price of the Royalty Shares was determined by the Manager on an arbitrary basis. The selling price of the Royalty Shares bears no relationship to our book or asset values or to any other established criteria for valuing Royalty Shares.

 

1

DISTRIBUTION POLICY

All monies associated with Income Interests received by us pursuant to the Purchase Agreements will be held in a designated bank account and generally distributed once per calendar quarter to the JKBX Platform accounts of the Holders of the corresponding Royalty Shares as further described below, subject to the terms of the applicable Royalty Share Agreement. In addition, the terms of service of the JKBX Platform, which is included as Exhibit 6.4 to the offering statement, may include restrictions on a Holder’s ability to withdraw amounts in their JKBX Platform account to other financial institutions, including, but not limited to, a minimum withdrawal threshold.

The Royalty Share Agreements shall provide that, during each full calendar quarter that begins following the six-month anniversary of the original issue date of a series of Royalty Shares, the Company shall declare with respect to such series (a) the amount of distributions payable per Royalty Share of such series on the next designated payment date and (b) a record date and payment date for such distributions. Each designated payment date shall be no later than ninety (90) calendar days after the end of the calendar quarter in which such payment date is declared by the Company. On each payment date, the amount of distributions payable per Royalty Share of the applicable series shall be paid to the person in whose name each Royalty Share is registered at the close of business on the applicable record date designated by the Company.

Pursuant to the applicable Royalty Share Agreement, the Company shall receive a fee equal to 1.0% of the gross monies associated with Income Interests received by us in respect of the Royalty Rights (the “Royalty Fee”). The Royalty Fee shall be deducted from the gross monies associated with Income Interests received by us and retained by the Company before Royalty Share Payments are made to the Holders of the corresponding series of Royalty Shares. The Royalty Fee shall only be collected by the Company on gross monies associated with Income Interests actually received by us. If there are no gross monies associated with Income Interests received by us during a period, the Company will not collect this fee for such period (i.e., no such fee shall be charged to any Royalty Shares).

In some instances, Income Interest payments made in respect of the Royalty Rights may be made more or less frequently than quarterly. If multiple Income Interest payments are made in a single quarter, we will accrue those Income Interest payments and make one single Royalty Share Payment to Holders of the applicable series of Royalty Shares following the end of the calendar quarter in which we received those Income Interest payments. Conversely, if Income Interest payments are made less frequently than quarterly (for example, bi-annually), then there will be no Royalty Share Payment made until a distribution is declared following the end of the calendar quarter in which the Income Interest payment is received.

Prior to the distribution of the Royalty Share Payment to the applicable Holders in accordance with the process described above, the Company shall manage any monies associated with Income Interests received by investing them in cash, cash equivalents and other high credit quality, short-term investments in accordance with our investment policy designed to protect the principal investment. Our investment policy is to manage investments to achieve the financial objectives of preservation of principal, liquidity and return on investment. A portion of the investment portfolio shall be held in cash and cash equivalents. Investments may also be made in U.S. bank securities and bank deposits, U.S. government securities and commercial paper of U.S. bank or industrial companies, and highly rated and well-diversified money market funds. Any interest and other investment income generated by these investing activities shall be retained by the Company and shall not be distributed to Holders. Distributions to Holders pursuant to the Royalty Share Agreements shall be limited, in all circumstances, to an amount equal to the net monies associated with Income Interests received by us after deduction of the Royalty Fee. While the Company’s investment policy is to manage investments to preserve principal, there is always a risk that principal may be lost in any investment made by the Company and, if so, the Company may lack the funds necessary to make some or all of the distributions of the Royalty Share Payment as required by the Royalty Share Agreements.

The above discussion regarding the Royalty Shares and Royalty Share Agreements is qualified in its entirety by the form of Royalty Share Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 3.1 to the offering statement of which this Offering Circular forms an integral part.

RISK FACTORS

The purchase of the Royalty Shares offered hereby involves a high degree of risk. Each prospective investor should consult his, her or its own counsel, accountant and other advisors as to legal, tax, business, financial, and related aspects of an investment in the securities offered hereby. Prospective investors should carefully consider the following specific risk factors and the other information set forth in this Offering Circular before purchasing the securities offered hereby.

Risks Related to our Business Model

The Company was recently formed, and has no track record or operating history from which you can evaluate this investment. Our business model is untested.

The Company was formed on April 3, 2023 and has no operating history. We cannot make any assurance that our business model can be successful. Since inception, the scope of our operations has been limited to our formation. Our operations will be dedicated to holding and managing the Royalty Rights. It is difficult to predict whether this business model will succeed or if there will ever be any profits realized from an investment in the Royalty Shares. No guarantee can be given that the Company will successfully employ the Royalty Rights to create return for investors in the Royalty Shares.

We currently are not generating sufficient revenue to carry out our planned business operations. We expect our operations to continue to consume substantial amounts of cash.

We expect that, until we acquire a sufficient amount of Royalty Rights, we will not be generating sufficient revenue to carry out our planned operations. In order to generate sufficient revenues to carry out our plan of operations and cover our expenses, including the expenses of this Offering, we believe we will need to continue to acquire Royalty Rights until we reach a sufficient scale. We expect that our costs may increase as we continue identifying and negotiating with artists and record labels and entering into new Purchase Agreements and thereby incurring more costs. If a lack of available capital means that we are unable to expand our operations or otherwise take advantage of business opportunities, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

There are few businesses that have pursued a strategy or investment objective similar to ours, which may make it difficult for the Company and the Royalty Shares to gain market acceptance.

We believe that few other businesses crowd fund royalty rights (or similar related interests) or propose to run a platform for crowdfunding royalty rights. The Company and our Royalty Shares may not gain market acceptance from potential investors, Income Interest Owners or service providers within the music industry.

Competition from the emergence or growth of other business models involving the investment in music royalty rights could have a negative impact on the value of the Royalty Shares.

While there are currently few businesses that have pursued a strategy or investment objective similar to ours, other businesses may emerge in the future operating in ways that are competitive against our business model. Such competition could have a negative impact on the demand for, and price of, the Royalty Shares.

In the event an Interest Income Owner to a Purchase Agreement breaches the terms of such Purchase Agreement, we may have limited recourse, which may result in the inability to collect any monies associated with the Income Interests from such Income Interest Owner represented and we may not be able to recover funds paid to the Income Interest Owner to reimburse the Holder.

Each Purchase Agreement will be between the Company and an Income Interest Owner from whom the Company will be purchasing certain Income Interests. Holders will have no rights under any Purchase Agreement, whether as third-party beneficiaries or otherwise. In the event we terminate any Purchase Agreement due to a breach by an Income Interest Owner– for example, if they do not hold proper title to the Income Interests they represent they own and assign Income Interests rights to, we will likely not be able to make distributions to the Holders. In the event of a default on such payment obligations, therefore, we may be limited in our ability to collect Income Interests, and you will need to rely upon the Company or a third-party collection agency to pursue collection against such Income Interest Owner.

We intend to enforce all contractual obligations to the extent we deem necessary and in the best interests of the Company and Holders. However, any Income Interest Owner under any Purchase Agreement who misrepresents the Income Interests they have assigned in the Purchase Agreement may not return some or all of the payments they received as part of the sale of the Royalty Rights to the Company, which means that Holder may not receive the benefit of some or all of the investments they made in those Royalty Shares, or some or all of the Royalty Share Payment they are owed.

Potential breach of the security measures of the JKBX Platform could have a material adverse effect on the Company, the Royalty Shares, and the value of your investment.

The highly automated nature of the JKBX Platform may make it an attractive target and potentially vulnerable to cyber-attacks, computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins, or similar disruptions. The JKBX Platform processes certain confidential information about investors. While Jukebox Technology, as sole owner of the JKBX Platform, represents to take commercially reasonable measures to protect confidential information and maintain appropriate cybersecurity, the security measures of the JKBX Platform, the Company, the Manager or our other service providers could be breached. Any accidental or willful security breaches or other unauthorized access to the JKBX Platform could cause confidential information to be stolen or used for criminal purposes or have other harmful effects. Security breaches or unauthorized access to confidential information could also expose the Company to liability related to the loss of the information, time-consuming and expensive litigation and negative publicity, or loss of the proprietary nature of the Company’s trade secrets. If security measures are breached because of third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, or if design flaws in the JKBX Platform software are exposed and exploited, the relationships between the Company, investors, users, and the Income Interest Owners could be severely damaged, and the Company could incur significant liability or have its attention significantly diverted from utilization of the Royalty Rights, which could have a material negative impact on the value and amounts of Royalty Share Payment available for distribution to Holders.

Because techniques used to sabotage or obtain unauthorized access to systems change frequently and generally are not discovered until they are launched against a target, we, Jukebox Technology, the third-party host used by the JKBX Platform, and other third-party service providers may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. In addition, federal regulators and many federal and state laws and regulations require companies to notify individuals of data security breaches involving their personal data. These mandatory disclosures regarding a security breach are costly to implement and often lead to widespread negative publicity, which may cause investors, the Income Interest Owners, or service providers within the industry, including insurance companies, to lose confidence in the effectiveness of the secure nature of the JKBX Platform. Any security breach, whether actual or perceived, would harm our reputation or the reputation of the JKBX Platform and Jukebox Technology, and we could lose investors and Income Interest Owners and the JKBX Platform could lose its users.

The Company may deploy capital management strategies related to any Income Interests it has received in respect of its Royalty Rights but which have not yet been distributed to Holders.

The Company may implement capital management strategies for Income Interests related to Royalty Rights that it has received and holds but not yet distributed to Holders. Accordingly, the Company may manage any capital received from such Income Interests in a variety of risk adjusted financial instruments, each of which may be subject to a loss of principal or other financial investment loss in lieu of retaining such amounts as cash until a distribution is required. Although such investments will be well-balanced and made with care, these investments may experience partial or total loss. If any of these investments experiences a partial or total loss, the Company may be unable to satisfy its Royalty Share Payment obligations in the Royalty Share Agreement. See “Distribution Policy” for more information.

We may encounter limitations on the effectiveness of our internal controls and a failure of our internal controls to prevent error or fraud may harm our business and Holders.

Because the Company operates with no employees and is reliant on the administrative services provided by the Manager, we may encounter limitations on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, public disclosures and other matters. For example, as a result of our staffing, our processing of financial information may suffer from a lack of segregation of duties, such that journal entries and account reconciliations are not reviewed by someone other than the preparer. If we encounter limitations on the effectiveness of our internal controls and are unable to remediate them, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately, prevent fraud or file our periodic reports as a Regulation A reporting entity in an accurate, complete, and timely manner. This could potentially harm our business and Holders.

 

4

In order to maintain and grow our operations, we will need to promote multiple series of the Offering and/or multiple offerings similar to this Offering; there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so to sustain our business model.

Although we anticipate ongoing negotiations with multiple potential Income Interest Owners to acquire additional Royalty Rights for forthcoming series of the Offering and/or future offerings, we may need to have a continuous pipeline of such series of the Offering and/or future offerings in order to achieve certain economies of scale with respect to marketing, distribution, and other operational activities. We may fail to acquire enough Royalty Rights to support our business model. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully sell Royalty Shares to achieve revenues that exceed our costs, and profit margins that justify our continued operations.

Risks Related to the Music Industry

In the event a Music Asset moves into the public domain the amount of Royalty Share Payments in respect of such applicable Royalty Shares may diminish or completely end.

In the United States, the composition and recording copyrights embodied in a song are generally protected by U.S. Copyright Law for the periods as follows (subject to various exceptions and nuances): (a) songs created or published in or after 1978, life of the author plus 70 years; (b) songs created or published between 1927 and 1978, there are various applicable periods depending on multiple factors; and (c) for works-made-for-hire created in or after 1978, 95 years from publication date or 120 years from the creation year (whichever expires first). Copyright renewals may also affect the above-referenced timelines. As of 2023, any song created or published before 1927 is currently in the public domain. When a composition or recording moves into the public domain, one who wants to exploit the song does not need to seek permission from or pay royalties to the rights Holder. Therefore, if a Music Asset moves into the public domain the amount of Royalty Share Payments paid in respect of the applicable Royalty Shares may diminish or completely end.

In the event that the copyright upon which Income Interests are based become terminable or subject to copyright reversion in accordance with Section 203 or Section 304 of the U.S. Copyright Act, the amount of Royalty Share Payments paid in respect of the applicable Royalty Shares may diminish or completely end.

Section 203 and Section 304 of the U.S. Copyright Act provide for a right (with exceptions and limitations) of copyright reversion for creators and/or their statutory recognized heirs within a five (5) year window commencing after a period of thirty-five (35) years, fifty-six (56) years, or seventy-five (75) years after (i) the date of the original grant of copyright and/or (ii) the date of first publication (depending on the particular circumstances as set out under the US Copyright Act). Where an Income Interest is dependent on a third-party copyright, its U.S. termination and reversion under these statutory provisions could render the U.S. Income Interest diminished or extinguished. In addition, currently, in the U.S., it is accepted under case law that Income Interest transfers are not terminable under Section 203 of the U.S. Copyright Act – only copyright transfers are terminable (with exceptions and limitations as noted above).

In addition to statutory termination, a grant of copyright interest may revert to the granting party pursuant to specific contractual terms. Rights under some agreements may be recaptured by the granting party either by performance of some additional obligation (e.g. repayment of monies advanced under the contract) or by the expiration of a term of years, or other contractual reasons. The Company may not be able to track and monitor its obligations and rights granted under contracts with all Income Interest Owners. Additionally, the Company’s interests in the Royalty Rights, in some cases, may be granted under short-term contracts which may expire, or may contain buy-out provisions pursuant to which the relevant artist may terminate the contract prior to its expiration.

Income generated by Income Interests may be reduced if the recorded music industry fails to grow or streaming revenue fails to grow at a sufficient rate to offset download and physical sales declines.

Every consecutive year since 2006, music streaming’s market share has grown. As of 2022, according to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, music streaming brought in $17.5 billion, and the music industry as a whole doubled in terms of revenue from 2014 to 2022. With music streaming providing greater accessibility than ever with multiple subscription models, including free ad-based models, and a 10.3% growth in subscription services from 2021 to 2022 alone, the music industry has seen healthy and consistent growth.

There can be no assurances that this growth pattern will persist or that digital revenue will grow at a rate sufficient to offset declines in physical sales, or that changes in streaming models will not negatively impact income generated from the Royalty Rights. A declining recorded music industry is likely to lead to reduced levels of revenue and operating income generated by the recorded and publishing music business. There are also a variety of factors that could cause the prices in the recorded music industry to be reduced. They are, among others, consumption during a global pandemic and fear for economic downturns, price competition from the sale of motion pictures and video games in physical and digital formats, the negotiating leverage of mass merchandisers, big-box retailers and distributors of digital music, the increased costs of doing business with mass merchandisers and big-box retailers as a result of complying with operating procedures that are unique to their needs and any associated changes.

Changes in technology may affect our ability to receive payments in respect of the Purchase Agreements and Royalty Rights.

The recorded and publishing music business is dependent in part on technological developments, including access to and selection and viability of new technologies, and is subject to potential pressure from competitors as a result of their

 

5

technological developments. For example, the recorded music business may be further adversely affected by technological developments that facilitate the piracy of music, such as internet peer-to-peer filesharing activities, by an inability to enforce intellectual property rights in digital environments, and by a failure to develop successful business models applicable to a digital environment. Music that is illegally produced, distributed, and/or exploited with the use of artificial intelligence could also infringe upon the intellectual property rights associated with the Music Assets underlying our Royalty Rights and adversely affect our ability to collect our Income Interest. The recorded music business also faces competition from other forms of entertainment and leisure activities, such as cable and satellite television, motion pictures, and video games, whether in physical or digital formats. The new digital business, including the impact of ad-supported music services, some of which may be able to avail themselves of “safe harbor” defenses against copyright infringement actions under copyright laws, may also limit the recorded music industry’s ability to receive income from music royalty rights. Due to such “safe harbor” defenses, revenue from ad-supported music services may not fully reflect increases in consumption of recorded music. In addition, the recorded music industry is currently dependent on a small number of leading digital music services, which allows such services to significantly influence the prices that can be charged in connection with the distribution of digital music. It is possible that the share of music sales by a small number of leading mass-market retailers, as well as online retailers and digital music services, will continue to grow, which could further increase their negotiating leverage and put pressure on prices, ultimately decreasing the income we will receive from music royalty rights.

Failure to obtain, maintain, protect, or enforce our intellectual property rights could substantially harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

The success of the Company and its ability to make distributions to Holders depends on its ability to obtain, maintain, protect, and enforce our rights under each Purchase Agreement. The measures that we take to obtain, maintain, protect, and enforce our rights, including, if necessary, litigation or proceedings before governmental authorities and administrative bodies, may be ineffective, expensive and time-consuming, and, despite such measures, we may not be able to enforce Income Interest collection on our Royalty Rights. Additionally, changes in law may be implemented, or changes in interpretation of such laws may occur, that may affect our ability to obtain, maintain, protect, or enforce rights to our Royalty Rights. Moreover, with music royalty rights, it is possible that despite our due diligence efforts there could be successful challenges by third parties to the ownership of a particular copyright or royalty stream or, if acquired as a group of assets, the entire group in which case the value of the asset(s) might be significantly less valuable, or have no value. Failure to obtain, maintain, protect, or enforce our rights could harm our brand or brand recognition and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operation.

Digital piracy may lead to decreased sales in the recorded and publishing music industry and affect our ability to receive Income Interests from the Royalty Rights.

The combined effect of the decreasing cost of electronic and computer equipment and related technology such as the conversion of music into digital formats have made it easier for consumers to obtain and create unauthorized copies of music recordings in the form of, for example, MP3 files. Such piracy will have a negative effect on revenues attributable to music royalty rights we acquire. In addition, while growth of music-enabled mobile consumer offers new opportunities for growth in the music industry, it also opens the market up to risks from behaviors such as “sideloading” and the mobile app-based downloading of unauthorized content. As the business shifts to streaming music or access models, piracy in these models is increasing. The impact of digital piracy on legitimate music sales and subscriptions is hard to quantify, but we believe that illegal filesharing and other forms of unauthorized activities could potentially have a negative impact on music sales and on the Income Interests we may receive from the Royalty Rights. The music industry is working to control this problem in a variety of ways including through litigation, and lobbying governments for new, stronger copyright protection laws and more stringent enforcement of current laws, through graduated response programs achieved through cooperation with internet service providers and legislation being advanced or considered in many countries, through technological measures and by enabling legitimate new media business models. However, we do not know whether such measures will be effective, and if such measures are not effective, our Income Interests derived from the Royalty Rights may decrease.

Royalty Rights and Income Interests are subject to risks relating to the music industry and such risks may reduce or eliminate the royalties, fees and other income streams that would otherwise accrue with respect to a song.

Various business risks in the music industry may contribute to the reduction or elimination of the royalties, fees and other income streams that would otherwise accrue with respect to a song. For example, a song may have an unrecouped balance owed to a music label, publisher or other party that must first be recouped from the royalty income before any royalties, fees and other income streams can pass to the Income Interests Owner. Additionally, royalties may be withheld by a record label,

 

6

publisher, performing rights organization (PRO), or other party or reduced if they become subject to a dispute (legal or non-legal) until the dispute is resolved to the satisfaction of the copyright holder or if a copyright infringement claim is successful. Royalties may also go uncollected or be paid to a prior label, publisher, other third party, or owner if the present copyright holder may not have an appropriate party engaged to exploit and collect income owing in respect of a song. Royalty administrators, publishers, labels, and/or distributors may also experience delays in distributing royalty payments. Publishers and labels may also be contractually required to obtain the approval of the original creator of the song (or the estate thereof) before being able to undertake certain exploitations of songs and recordings (e.g., film or tv synchronizations, compilation usages, etc.) and such approvals may be withheld, thus reducing potential Income Interests. Outside of the United States, the doctrine of “moral rights” for creators may similarly restrict the commercial exploitation potential of songs and/or sound recordings. Additionally, the underlying copyrights in songs and sound recordings are subject to duration periods after which these works fall into the public domain. These are examples of some, but not all, of the risks that may impact the amount of Income Interests that we receive in respect of the Royalty Rights and that will be available for Royalty Share Payments to Holders. If any of these or other risks were to arise with respect to a particular Music Asset or Income Interest underlying any of the Royalty Rights, then Holders of the corresponding Royalty Shares may experience a material or complete reduction in the amount of Royalty Share Payments paid in respect of such Royalty Shares.

Income Interest Owners from whom we acquire Income Interests do not owe any fiduciary duties to the Company or its investors, and they are under no obligation to enhance the value of the underlying music royalty rights or disclose information to the Company’s investors.

The owners of the intellectual property underlying the Royalty Rights have no obligation to enhance the value of the underlying Income Interests that we may acquire. For example, the recording artist or songwriter may decide to retire, which may have the effect of decreasing future Income Interests from the music. Furthermore, neither the recording artist, the songwriter nor the intellectual property rights owner owe any fiduciary duties to the Company or investors in the Royalty Shares. Investors in the Royalty Shares will have no recourse directly against the recording artist or songwriter or the intellectual property rights owner, either under the agreement to purchase the Income Interests or under state or federal securities laws.

The value of music is highly subjective, and the popularity of Music Assets may be unpredictable.

The value of music is inherently subjective given the unique character of each individual work. In addition, the popularity of any given work may be unpredictable. While the analysis of certain qualitative factors may provide some predictive information regarding how the music-consuming market may respond to a certain asset, such as an artist’s track record, general cultural and/or industry trends, press coverage and other public exposure, or certain musical criteria, these factors may not reliably inform how a Music Asset underlying the Royalty Rights will perform in ways that result in the ultimate distribution of Royalty Share Payments to Holders.

There is no assurance of appreciation of the value of the Royalty Rights or any cash distributions resulting from any potential disposal of the Royalty Rights.

There is no assurance that the value of the Royalty Rights will appreciate, maintain their present value, or be sold at a profit. The marketability and value of the Royalty Rights will depend upon many factors beyond our control. There can be no assurance that there will be a ready market for the Royalty Rights, since investment in music royalty rights is generally illiquid, nor is there any assurance that in the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, or any disposal otherwise, of the Royalty Rights, sufficient cash will be generated allowing investors to recuperate their investment amounts.

Temporary popularity of some Music Assets or music trends may result in short-term value increases in Royalty Share Payments that may prove unsustainable as cultural tastes shift.

Temporary consumer popularity may lead to short-term or temporary increases in Royalty Share Payments, followed by decreases thereof. The demand for specific categories of music and artists is influenced by changing cultural trends in the market, which can be difficult to predict. These risks of changes in popularity may be greater for a living or emerging artist, as compared to other categories which may have a proven popularity track record over a longer period of time. These trends could result in reduced profitability for Holders. Furthermore, artists and songwriters may engage in activities or behaviors that may influence their public perception, which in turn may influence the demand or popularity of certain related Music Assets. The adverse impact to the Royalty Shares resulting, directly or indirectly, from such artists’ or songwriters’ activities or behaviors may be impossible to predict at the time an investor purchases a Royalty Share.

We are relatively undiversified since our strategy involves the investment exclusively in Income Interests.

The Company was formed to facilitate an investment in the collection of Royalty Rights that derive Income Interests from certain Music Assets. Such lack of diversification may create a concentration risk that may make an investment in the Royalty Shares riskier than an investment in a diversified pool of assets or business with more varied operations. Aggregate returns realized by investors are expected to correlate to the change in popularity and/or consumption of the underlying assets, which may not correlate to changes in the overall music market or any segment of the music market.

Risks Related to the Offering and Ownership of the Royalty Shares

An investment in an Offering constitutes only an investment in the Royalty Shares and not in the Company or directly in any underlying Music Asset.

An investor in this Offering will acquire an ownership interest in the Royalty Shares representing the contractual right to receive Royalty Share Payments, and will not, for the avoidance of doubt, acquire an ownership interest in (i) the Company, (ii) the Manager, (iii) the JKBX Platform, (iv) Jukebox Holding, (v) the underlying intellectual property rights, including copyrights, of the Music Assets, or (vi) directly, the Music Assets associated with or underlying the Royalty Rights. The Manager retains significant control over the management of the Company. Furthermore, because the Royalty Shares do not constitute an investment in the Company as a whole, Holders are not expected to receive any economic benefit from the assets of, or be subject to the liabilities of, any of the Company’s activities unrelated to this Offering or the Royalty Rights. In addition, the economic interest of a Holder may not be identical to owning a direct undivided interest in a Music Asset underlying the Royalty Rights because, among other things, the Company will be required to pay certain taxes before distributions are made to the Holders, and the Company will receive a Royalty Fee in respect of its ongoing administration of rights associated with the Royalty Shares.

The offering price of the Royalty Shares was not established on an independent basis; the actual value of your investment may be substantially less than what you pay. When determining the estimated value of the Royalty Shares, the value of the Royalty Shares has been and will be based upon a number of assumptions that may not be accurate or complete.

The Company established the initial offering price of the Royalty Shares on an arbitrary basis. The selling price of the Royalty Shares bears no relationship to the value of the corresponding Royalty Rights, to our book or asset values or to any other criteria for valuing Royalty Shares, and does not reflect the quality of the underlying Royalty Rights or Music Asset. Because the offering price is not based upon any independent valuation, the offering price may not be indicative of the actual value of the Royalty Shares you acquire. Further, the offering price may be significantly more than the price at which the Royalty Shares would trade if they were to be listed on an exchange or actively traded by broker-dealers.

Certain information presented in this Offering Circular is provided to the Company by Income Interest Owners and cannot be independently verified by the Company.

This Offering Circular contains information that is provided to the Company by Income Interest Owners and that is unverifiable by the Company. In particular, certain information presented in the “Composition and Recording Rights” table beginning on page 48 is provided by Income Interest Owners pursuant to the applicable Purchase Agreement as described in “Description of the Music Assets Underlying the Royalty Shares—Composition and Recording Rights Table” and we are unable to independently verify such information. If investors rely on such information in making investment decisions in this Offering, such information may be inaccurate. Investors are encouraged to conduct their own research and to consider the various risks associated with the Offering, as described in the “Risk Factors” section of this Offering Circular, before purchasing any series of Royalty Shares.

Royalty Share Payments depend entirely on the payments of monies associated with Income Interests received by us in respect of the corresponding Royalty Rights. If we do not receive such payments, you will not receive any Royalty Share Payments.

The Company is obligated to make Royalty Share Payments only to the extent that we receive Income Interest payments in respect of the corresponding Royalty Rights in accordance with the applicable Royalty Share Agreements. If we do not receive any Income Interest payments in respect of the corresponding Royalty Rights, you will not be entitled to, and will not receive any, Royalty Share Payments.

Holders who dispose of their Royalty Shares prior to the record date for any Royalty Share Payment in connection with such disposed Royalty Shares will not receive such the Royalty Share Payment.

During each full calendar quarter that begins following the six-month anniversary of the original issue date of a series of Royalty Shares, the Company shall declare with respect to such series (a) the amount of distributions payable per Royalty Shares of such series on the next designated payment date, and (b) a record date and payment date for such distributions. Holders who dispose of their Royalty Shares before the record date of any initial or ongoing distribution for a series of Royalty Shares will not receive any payment in connection with such quarter. As such, Holders may need to hold their Royalty Shares for six months or more before their Royalty Shares are eligible for any Royalty Share Payments.

The Royalty Shares are unsecured limited obligations of the Company only and are not secured by any collateral or guaranteed or insured by any third party.

The Royalty Shares are unsecured limited obligations of the Company only and will not represent an obligation of the Manager or Jukebox Holding, any Income Interest Owner or any other party except the Company. The Royalty Shares are not secured by any collateral and are not guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or any third party.

A determination that music royalty Income Interests are “securities” may adversely affect the value of the Royalty Shares, and result in potentially extraordinary, nonrecurring expenses to, or termination of, the Company.

The SEC has not made any official policy statements categorically addressing whether music royalty Income Interests, such as Royalty Rights, are “securities” under federal securities laws. As such, the SEC may consider music royalty Income Interests as “securities” in the future. The test for determining whether a certain music royalty Income Interest can be complex and highly fact-specific, where the outcome is difficult to predict.

To the extent music royalty Income Interests are securities, the Company may also be subject to additional regulatory requirements, including under the Investment Company Act, and the Company may be required to register as an investment

adviser under the Investment Advisers Act. Regulatory changes or interpretations could cause the Company to register and comply with new regulations, resulting in potentially extraordinary expenses to the Company. If the Company determines not to comply with such additional regulatory and registration requirements, the Manager may dissolve the Company in accordance with the Company’s Operating Agreement. Any such dissolution could result in the liquidation of the Royalty Rights at a time that is disadvantageous to Holders.

There is currently no public trading market for the Royalty Shares, and there can be no assurance that any trading market will develop or, even if developed, may not be available to all Holders, may not be sustained or may cease to exist following this Offering, which would adversely impact the market for the Royalty Shares and make it difficult, or even impossible, to sell your Royalty Shares.

There is currently no public trading market for the Royalty Shares, and an active market may not develop or be sustained. If an active public trading market for the Royalty Shares does not develop or is not sustained, it may be difficult or impossible for investors to resell their Royalty Shares at any price. Even if a public market does develop, it may not provide an effective means of selling your Royalty Shares and the market price could decline below the amount an investor paid for the Royalty Shares or fluctuate significantly for many reasons, including reasons unrelated to our performance, such as reports by industry analysts, investor perceptions, or announcements by our competitors regarding their own performance, as well as general economic and industry conditions.

We do not currently intend to list the Royalty Shares for trading on a national securities exchange. We may in the future facilitate secondary sales of Royalty Shares on an alternative trading system operated by an SEC-registered broker-dealer and a member of FINRA and the SIPC, hereinafter referred to as the “ATS.” Additionally, we may engage the services of an SEC-registered broker-dealer and a member of FINRA and SIPC, to provide Holders of the Royalty Shares with access to the ATS through the JKBX Platform. No assurance can be given that the Company, the ATS or the broker-dealer we engage will be in a position to facilitate sales of the Royalty Shares or, in the event they are able to facilitate such sales, provide an effective means of selling your Royalty Shares or that the price at which any Royalty Shares may be sold through any eventual ATS with the assistance of such broker-dealer (or otherwise) will be reflective of the fair value of the Royalty Shares or the underlying Royalty Rights. In the event that secondary sales of Royalty Shares are possible on an ATS, such sales may be subject to fees imposed by the ATS and/or the broker-dealer we engage or other broker-dealers operating on the ATS. We do not know the extent to which investor interest will lead to the development and maintenance of a liquid market. In light of a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the relatively small market capitalization of the Company, we cannot guarantee that any eventual ATS will provide a reliable or effective means of price discovery. Any posted offer prices or historical transaction information reflected on any eventual ATS should not be construed as being representative of the fair value of the Royalty Shares or of the Royalty Rights. Investors should be prepared to hold their Royalty Shares for an indefinite period of time, as there can be no assurance that the Royalty Shares will ever be saleable through the ATS or any alternative platform.

If a market ever develops for the Royalty Shares, the market prices and trading volume of the Royalty Shares may be volatile.

If a market develops for the Royalty Shares, the market price of the Royalty Shares could fluctuate for many reasons, including reasons unrelated to our performance, such as reports by industry analysts, investor perceptions, or announcements by our competitors regarding their own performance, as well as general economic and industry conditions. In addition, fluctuations in operating results of any particular series of Royalty Shares, or the failure to meet the expectations of investors, may negatively impact the price of the Royalty Shares. Operating results may fluctuate in the future due to a variety of factors that could negatively affect revenues or expenses in any particular reporting period, including vulnerability of our business to a general economic downturn, changes in the laws that affect our operations, competition, compensation-related expenses, application of accounting standards, seasonality, and our ability to obtain and maintain all necessary government certifications or licenses to conduct our business. Lastly, the price investors pay for the Royalty Shares may be more or less than that paid by investors who purchase their Royalty Shares in the future, such as via an ATS. There is no guarantee that the value of Royalty Shares purchased in this Offering will increase in the future should an investor seek to sell such investor’s Royalty Shares.

This Offering is being conducted on a continuous basis, however there may be brief pauses in this Offering due to technological or operational overcapacity.

The Offering is being conducted on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 251(d)(3) of the Securities Act, meaning that while an offering of securities is continuous, sales and settlement of securities may happen sporadically over the term of such offering as we are able to process subscriptions. The acceptance of subscriptions by the Company and its associated persons through the JKBX Platform may be briefly paused at times to allow us to effectively and accurately process and settle subscriptions that have been received.

There may be state law restrictions on an investor’s ability to sell its Royalty Shares making it difficult to transfer, sell, or otherwise dispose of the Royalty Shares.

Each state has its own securities laws, colloquially known as “blue sky” laws, which (i) limits sales of securities to a state’s residents unless the securities are registered in that state or qualify for an exemption from registration and (ii) govern the reporting requirements for broker-dealers and stockbrokers doing business directly or indirectly in the state. Before a

 

9

security is sold in a state, there must be a registration in place to cover the transaction, or it must be exempt from registration. Also, the broker must be registered in that state. We do not know whether the Royalty Shares being offered under this Offering Circular will be registered, or exempt, under the laws of any states. A determination regarding registration will be made by the broker-dealers, if any, who agree to serve as the market-makers for our Royalty Shares. There may be significant state blue sky law restrictions on the ability of investors to sell, and on purchasers to buy, our Royalty Shares. Investors should consider the resale market for our Royalty Shares to be limited. Investors may be unable to resell their Royalty Shares, or they may be unable to resell them without the significant expense of state registration or qualification.

If we face litigation related to the Offering, we may elect to liquidate the Company’s assets, and the proceeds of any such liquidation may be insufficient to provide an adequate remedy. Further, if investors successfully seek rescission, we would face severe financial demands that we may not be able to meet.

The Royalty Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and are being offered in reliance upon the exemption provided by Section 3(b) of the Securities Act, including Regulation A promulgated thereunder. We represent that this Offering Circular does not contain any untrue statements of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of all the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. However, if this representation is inaccurate with respect to a material fact, if this Offering fails to qualify for exemption from registration under the federal securities laws pursuant to Regulation A, or if we fail to register the Royalty Shares or find an exemption under the securities laws of each state in which we offer the Royalty Shares, each investor may have the right to rescind his, her or its purchase of the Royalty Shares and to receive back from us his, her or its purchase price with interest. Such investors, however, may be unable to collect on any judgment, and the cost of obtaining such judgment may outweigh the benefits. If investors successfully seek rescission, there can be no assurance that the available funds of the Company can provide an adequate remedy for its investors and it would face severe financial demands it may not be able to meet, which may adversely affect any non-rescinding investors.

Risks of investing using a credit card.

We may, in our sole discretion, accept credit cards for subscriptions, provided that any such credit card subscription may be subject to additional restrictions. An investment in the Royalty Shares is a long-term and highly illiquid investment. Payment by credit card may be appropriate for some investors as a temporary funding convenience, but should not be used as a long-term means to finance an investment in the Royalty Shares. Investors contemplating using their credit card to invest are urged to review the SEC’s Investor Alert dated February 14, 2018 entitled: Credit Cards and Investments – A Risky Combination, which is available at https://www.sec.gov/oiea/investor-alerts-and-bulletins/ia_riskycombination. Credit card investment may result in incurrence of third-party fees and charges (often ranging from 1.5% - 3.0%), interest obligations which will lower your expected investment returns, and could exceed your actual returns. In addition, if you cannot meet your minimum payment obligation, you may damage your credit profile which would make it more difficult and more expensive to borrow in the future.

Risks Related to the Company

The value of the Royalty Shares may be influenced by a variety of factors unrelated to the performance of the underlying Music Assets.

The value of the Royalty Shares may be influenced by a variety of factors unrelated to the performance of the Music Assets underlying the Royalty Rights. These factors include the following:

 

•

Unanticipated problems or issues with respect to the mechanics of the Company’s operations and the trading of the Royalty Shares may arise, in particular due to the fact that the mechanisms and procedures governing the creation and offering of the Royalty Shares have been developed specifically for this product;

 

•

The Company could experience difficulties in operating and maintaining its technical infrastructure, including in connection with expansions or updates to such infrastructure, which may be complex and could lead to unanticipated delays, unforeseen expenses, and security vulnerabilities; and

 

•

The Company could experience unforeseen issues relating to the performance and effectiveness of the security procedures it uses to operate, or the security procedures may not protect against all errors, software flaws, or other vulnerabilities in the Company’s technical infrastructure, which could give rise to potential unforeseen expenses and reputational harm to the Company.

 

10

We may not currently maintain enough resources to meet customer support demands or scale our operations if the demand for Royalty Shares is higher than we have anticipated.

To date, the Company has made budgeting and operational decisions based on internal financial and operational projections, in order to meet the foreseeable needs of the Company to conduct its business activities in an effective manner. While the relevant projections have been prepared based on carefully devised business assumptions, the demand for Royalty Shares may nonetheless be higher than indicated by our internal projections, in which event the resources currently allocated to customer support may fall short of the Company’s actual needs. While we intend to address such personnel resources issues swiftly, temporary personnel shortage resulting from unanticipated demand may result in dissatisfaction of the Company’s customers, which in turn may result in reputational harm to the Company and/or the Royalty Shares.

Holders do not have the protections associated with ownership of shares in an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act or the protections afforded by the Commodity Exchange Act (the “CEA”).

The Investment Company Act is designed to protect investors by preventing insiders from managing investment companies to their benefit and to the detriment of public investors, such as: the issuance of securities having inequitable or discriminatory provisions; the management of investment companies by irresponsible persons; the use of unsound or misleading methods of computing earnings and asset value; changes in the character of investment companies without the consent of investors; and investment companies from engaging in excessive leveraging. To accomplish these ends, the Investment Company Act requires the safekeeping and proper valuation of fund assets, restricts greatly transactions with affiliates, limits leveraging, and imposes governance requirements as a check on fund management.

The Company is not registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, and we believe that the Company is not required to register under such act. Consequently, Holders do not have the regulatory protections provided to investors in investment companies.

The Company will not hold or trade in commodity interests regulated by the CEA, as administered by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”). Furthermore, we believe that the Company is not a commodity pool for purposes of the CEA, and that the Company is not subject to regulation by the CFTC as a commodity pool operator or a commodity trading advisor in connection with the operation of the Company. Consequently, Holders will not have the regulatory protections provided to investors in CEA-regulated instruments or commodity pools.

The restrictions on transfer and redemption may result in losses on an investment in the Royalty Shares.

Royalty Shares purchased directly from the Company may not be resold except in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act and state securities laws and, where applicable, with the consent of the Company. See “Description of the Royalty Shares—Transfer Restrictions” for more information.

The Company is not accepting, and does not expect to accept, redemption requests from Holders. Therefore, unless the Company is permitted to, and does, establish a Royalty Share redemption program, Holder may be unable to (or could be significantly impeded in attempting to) sell or otherwise liquidate investments in the Royalty Shares, which could have a material adverse impact on demand for the Royalty Shares and their value.

The Company will incur significant costs as a result of the qualification of the Royalty Shares pursuant to Regulation A and becoming a reporting issuer under Regulation A.

In order to qualify an offering pursuant to Regulation A, the Company will incur significant ongoing legal, accounting and other expenses. In addition, Regulation A imposes various requirements on issuers that require the Company and other personnel to devote a substantial amount of time to compliance initiatives.

If the Manager is required to register as a broker-dealer with the Commission and FINRA, the Manager may be required to cease operations and any Royalty Shares offered and sold without such proper registration may be subject to a right of rescission.

If the Manager is deemed to have itself engaged in brokerage activities that require registration with the SEC and FINRA, including the initial sale of the Royalty Shares by the Company and its associated persons through the JKBX Platform and permitting a registered broker-dealer to facilitate resales or other liquidity of the Royalty Shares on the JKBX Platform or the ATS, the Manager may need to stop operating and, therefore, cease providing the administrative services to the Company pursuant to the Company’s Operating Agreement. Since we have not entered into any back-up management agreements, if we or the Manager were to cease operations or otherwise become unable to manage the Royalty Rights or the Royalty Shares without transferring such Royalty Rights to another entity, the management of the Royalty Rights and the Royalty Shares, including the collection of Income Interests and the making of Royalty Share Payments to Holders would be interrupted and may halt altogether unless another way to manage the Royalty Rights and the Royalty Shares on behalf of investors was secured. In addition, if the Manager is ultimately found to have engaged in activities requiring registration as “broker-dealer” without either being properly registered as such, there is a risk that any Royalty Shares offered and sold while the Manager was not so registered may be subject to a right of rescission, which may result in the early termination of this Offering.

By purchasing Royalty Shares in this Offering and entering into a Royalty Share Agreement and Subscription Agreement, you are bound by the provisions contained in the Royalty Share Agreement and Subscription Agreement which provide for mandatory arbitration and a waiver of rights to a jury trial which limits your ability to bring class action lawsuits, seek remedies on a class basis or have a jury decide the factual merits of your claim.

By purchasing Royalty Shares in this Offering, investors agree to be bound by the arbitration provisions contained in our Royalty Share Agreement and Subscription Agreement which provide that arbitration is the exclusive means for resolving disputes relating to or arising under the Subscription Agreement and Royalty Share Agreement and efforts to enforce, interpret or construe such agreements. In addition, by signing the Royalty Share Agreement and the Subscription Agreement, you waive your rights to a jury trial in any such dispute. The arbitration provisions and the waiver of rights to a jury trial in disputes subject to arbitration apply to claims under the U.S. federal securities laws and to all claims that are related to the Company and the Royalty Shares. Arbitration awards are generally final and binding. A party’s ability to have a court reverse or modify an arbitration award is very limited. Further, any claims arising out of the Royalty Share Agreement or Subscription Agreement must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action, collective action, private attorney general action, or other representative proceeding, or class arbitration. An arbitrator may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims arising out of the Royalty Share Agreement or Subscription Agreement. Purchasers of Royalty Shares in a secondary transaction would also be subject to the same arbitration provisions and jury waiver that are currently in our Royalty Share Agreement or Subscription Agreement. In addition, such arbitration provisions limit the ability of investors to bring class action lawsuits or similarly seek remedies on a class basis for claims subject to the provisions. If invoked, the arbitration is required to be conducted in the State of New York in accordance with New York law. These restrictions on the ability to bring a class action lawsuit and the waiver of a jury trial may result in increased costs and/or reduced remedies to individual investors who wish to pursue claims against the Company. Claims by which a jury trial is waived could include claims made under the federal securities laws.

We believe that the arbitration provision in both the Royalty Share Agreement and the Subscription Agreement is enforceable under federal law, the laws of the State of Delaware, the laws of the State of New York, or under any other applicable laws or regulations. However, the issue of enforceability is not free from doubt and, to the extent that one or more of the provisions in our Royalty Share Agreement or Subscription Agreement with respect to arbitration or otherwise requiring you to waive certain rights, were to be found by a court to be unenforceable, we would abide by such decision.

BY AGREEING TO BE SUBJECT TO THE ARBITRATION PROVISION, INVESTORS WILL NOT BE DEEMED TO WAIVE THE COMPANY’S COMPLIANCE WITH THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER.

We are substantially reliant on the Manager to assist us in the administration and management of our business.

We do not plan to have employees and intend to fund our ongoing operations with net offering proceeds and Royalty Fees. We are substantially reliant on the performance of the Manager under the Operating Agreement. The Manager will assist us in the performance and administration of all of our necessary day-to-day operational tasks in connection with the Royalty Rights and our obligations to Royalty Share Holders. The Manager is a newly formed company and has not yet developed a track record of successful performance of these activities. If the Manager were to default on its obligations under the Operating Agreement, it would be extremely difficult for us to replace the Manager or internally manage these functions. Accordingly, in the event of a material default by the Manager under the terms of the Operating Agreement, it could potentially give rise to circumstances under which we may be forced to liquidate or distribute the Company’s assets. We cannot provide assurance that the timing or terms of any such liquidation would be favorable.

We or the Manager may require additional capital to fund our operations and support business growth, and this capital may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

If we do not, or the Manager does not, have sufficient working capital to fund our ongoing operations, we or the Manager may require additional capital from the Manager, Jukebox Holding or other parties, however there is no guarantee that any additional capital will be available to us or the Manager on acceptable terms, if at all.

Our Subscription Agreement and Royalty Share Agreement each provide for non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the courts of the State of New York but require you to acknowledge that this provision shall not apply to claims arising under the Securities Act and Exchange Act. Where applicable, we expect to vigorously seek redress for claims arising under the Securities Act and Exchange Act in the federal district courts of the United States of America, which, if agreed to by the courts, will restrict our Holders ability to choose the judicial forum for Securities Act and Exchange Act disputes.

While our Subscription Agreement and Royalty Share Agreement generally provide for non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, they also require you to acknowledge that this non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue selection provision does not apply to claims arising under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. For this reason, all claims arising under the Securities Act and Exchange Act may be required to be brought in federal court. There is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce this aspect of the Subscription Agreement and Royalty Share Agreement if a party were to otherwise seek redress under the federal securities laws in a state court. We expect to vigorously assert the validity and enforceability of federal securities laws and other claims for which federal courts may have exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the federal district courts of the United States. This may require significant additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions and there can be no assurance how the provision will be interpreted by a court in those other jurisdictions.

This choice of forum provision may limit a Holder’s ability to bring a Securities Act or Exchange Act claim in a state forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or other employees. If a court were to find this provision in our Subscription Agreement or Royalty Share Agreement to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving the dispute in other jurisdictions, which could seriously harm our financial condition. By agreeing to the Subscription Agreement and Royalty Share Agreement, you will not be deemed to have waived the Company’s compliance with U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

Royalty Shares do not represent an ownership interest in the Company and Holders will not have a right to bring a derivative action.

The Royalty Shares do not represent an ownership interest in the Company and Holders take no part in the management or control of the Company. Accordingly, Holders will not have the right to authorize actions, appoint service providers or take other actions as may be taken by shareholders of companies where shares carry such rights. The Manager may take actions in the operation of the Company that may be adverse to the interests of Holders and may adversely affect the value of the Royalty Shares. Moreover, because the Royalty Shares do not represent an ownership interest in the Company, Holders do not have a statutory right under Delaware law to bring a derivative action (i.e., to initiate a lawsuit in the name of the Company in order to assert a claim belonging to the Company against a fiduciary of the Company or against a third-party when the Company’s management has refused to do so).

If the Company were to become subject to a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, the rights of the Holders of the Royalty Shares could be uncertain, and the recovery, if any, of a Holder of a Royalty Share may be substantially delayed and substantially less than the amounts due or that may become due in respect of the Royalty Share.

In the event of a bankruptcy or a similar proceeding by the Company, the rights of investors to continue receiving payments in respect of the Royalty Shares could be subject to the following risks and uncertainties:

 

•

Income Interest Owners and other organizations may delay payments to us on account of the Royalty Rights because of the uncertainties occasioned by a bankruptcy or similar proceeding of the Company, even if they have no legal right to do so, and such delay could reduce, at least for a time, the funds that might otherwise be available for distribution to Holders of the Royalty Shares corresponding to those Royalty Rights.

 

•

In a bankruptcy or similar proceeding of the Company, our obligation to continue making Royalty Share Payments would likely be suspended or delayed even if the funds to make such distributions were available. Because a bankruptcy or similar proceeding may take months or years to complete, even if the suspended distributions were resumed, the suspension might effectively reduce the value of any recovery that a Holder of a Royalty Share might receive by the time such recovery occurs.

 

•

The Royalty Shares are unsecured, and investors do not have a security interest in the corresponding Royalty Rights. Accordingly, the Holders of the Royalty Shares may be treated as general unsecured creditors and thus be required to share the monies associated with Income Interests received by us in respect of the corresponding Royalty Rights with our other general unsecured creditors. If such sharing of Income Interests is deemed appropriate, those Income Interests that are either held by us in our accounts at the time of the bankruptcy or similar proceeding of the Company, or not yet

 

13

received by us at the time of the commencement of the bankruptcy or similar proceeding, may be at greater risk than the Royalty Share Payments that are already held by us in accounts for the benefit of Holder on the JKBX Platform at the time of the bankruptcy or similar proceeding. To the extent that Income Interests would be shared with other creditors of the Company, any secured or priority rights of such other creditors may cause such Income Interests to be distributed to such other creditors before, or ratably with, any Royalty Share Payments made to Holders.

 

•

In a bankruptcy or similar proceeding of the Company, it is possible that a Holder of a Royalty Share could be deemed to have a right of payment only from the Income Interests of the corresponding Royalty Rights and not from any other assets of the Company, in which case the Holder of the Royalty Share may not be entitled to share the proceeds of such other assets of the Company with other creditors of the Company, whether or not, as described above, such other creditors would be entitled to share in the Income Interests of the Royalty Rights corresponding to the Royalty Share. Alternatively, it is possible that a Holder of a Royalty Share could be deemed to have a right to Royalty Share Payments and from some or all other assets of the Company, in which case the Holder of the Royalty Share may be entitled to share the proceeds of such other assets of the Company with other creditors of the Company, whether or not, as described above, such other creditors would be entitled to share in the Royalty Share Payments. To the extent that proceeds of such other assets would be shared with other creditors of the Company, any secured or priority rights of such other creditors may cause the proceeds to be distributed to such other creditors before, or ratably with, any Royalty Share Payments to Holders.

 

•

If we have received Income Interests before bankruptcy proceedings are commenced and those funds are held in our accounts after the commencement of bankruptcy proceedings and have not been used by us to make Royalty Share Payments, there can be no assurance that we will be able to use such funds to make Royalty Share Payments to Holders.

 

•

If a bankruptcy proceeding commences after your commitment becomes irrevocable (and such funds to purchase the Royalty Rights are set aside for closing), you may not be able to obtain a refund of the funds you have committed even if the offering proceeds have not yet been used to fund the acquisition of the corresponding Royalty Rights.

If we or the Manager were to cease operations or enter into bankruptcy proceedings, the collection of Income Interests in accordance with the Royalty Rights and the management of the Royalty Shares, including the making of Royalty Share Payments, would be interrupted and may halt altogether.

If we or the Manager were to become subject to bankruptcy or similar proceedings or if we or the Manager ceased operations, the Company, or a bankruptcy trustee on our behalf, might be required to find other ways to manage Royalty Rights and Royalty Shares, including the collection of royalties and the making of Royalty Share Payments to Holders. Such alternatives could result in delays in the making of Royalty Share Payments on Royalty Shares or could require payment of significant fees to another company to manage and service the Royalty Rights and the Royalty Shares. Since we have not entered into any back-up management agreements, if we or the Manager were to cease operations or otherwise become unable to manage the Royalty Rights or the Royalty Shares without transferring such Royalty Rights to another entity, the management of the Royalty Rights and the Royalty Shares, including the collection of Income Interests and the making of Royalty Share Payments to Holders would be interrupted and may halt altogether unless another way to manage the Royalty Rights and the Royalty Shares on behalf of investors was secured.

If we or the Manager were to file under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, it is possible that we would be able to continue to manage the Royalty Rights and the Royalty Shares during reorganization. If, on the other hand, we were to file under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, or if an attempted reorganization under Chapter 11 should fail and the bankruptcy case be converted to Chapter 7, the bankruptcy trustee would have the obligation to administer the bankruptcy estate. As part of such administration, the bankruptcy trustee, subject to bankruptcy court approval, may elect to continue to Royalty Rights and the Royalty Shares or to transfer the right to such servicing to another entity for a fee. Either option would likely result in delays in the collection of Income Interests and in the making of Royalty Share Payments to Holders and could require the bankruptcy trustee to pay significant fees to another company to manage the Royalty Rights and the Royalty Shares, ultimately decreasing the amounts available for Royalty Share Payments. Alternatively, the bankruptcy trustee may elect to cease these management functions altogether.

 

14

In the event that we or the Manager were to cease operations or enter into bankruptcy proceedings, recovery by a Holder of a Royalty Share may be substantially delayed while back-up management is secured, if practicable, or such services halted altogether, and such recovery may be substantially less than the amounts due and that may become due on in respect of the Royalty Share.

The treatment of the Royalty Shares for U.S. federal income tax purposes is uncertain.

There are no statutory provisions, regulations, published rulings, or judicial decisions that directly address the characterization of the Royalty Shares or instruments similar to the Royalty Shares for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, although the matter is not free from doubt, the Company intends to treat the arrangement as an investment trust described in Treasury Regulation 301.7701-4(c) for U.S. federal income tax purposes in which the investor’s Royalty Share represents an undivided beneficial interest in the Royalty Right derived from the specified Music Asset. Investment trusts are entitled to flow through treatment of the income to the Holders of the Royalty Share.

An investment trust is not classified as a trust if a power exists under the trust agreement to vary the investment of the certificate holders. An investment trust with multiple classes of ownership interests ordinarily is classified as a business entity. However, an investment trust with multiple classes of ownership interests in which no power exists under the trust agreement to vary the investment of the certificate holder is classified as a trust if the trust is formed to facilitate direct investment in its assets and the existence of multiple classes of ownership interests is incidental to that purpose.

All prospective purchasers of the Royalty Shares are advised to consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax consequences of the purchase and ownership of the Royalty Shares (including any possible differing treatments of the Royalty Shares).

If the arrangement were to become a business entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then the business entity would be required to pay corporate level income tax on its net income. Then, Royalty Share Payments to investors would be subject to a shareholder level income tax as dividend income to the extent of the business entity’s earnings and profits.

While it is expected that we will operate so that the arrangement will qualify to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as an investment trust, and not as a business entity, given the highly complex nature of the rules governing trusts and partnerships, the ongoing importance of factual determinations, the lack of direct guidance with respect to the application of tax laws to the activities we are undertaking and the possibility of future changes in our circumstances, it is possible that the arrangement will not qualify to be taxable as an investment trust for any particular year. If the Company’s arrangement does not qualify as an investment trust, it may default to a business entity that is characterized as a partnership. Then, the trading of Royalty Shares on an alternative trading system such as the ATS may, under Section 7704 of the Code, cause the partnership to be characterized as a publicly traded partnership that is treated and taxed as a corporation, and not as a partnership, for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If, for any reason, the arrangement is or becomes taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the investors will not be entitled to flow through tax treatment. Instead, the business entity will be required to pay a corporate level income tax on its net income, and distributions to investors will be subject to a shareholder level income tax as a dividend to the extent of the business entity’s earnings and profits. The arrangement’s failure to qualify as an investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes could have a material adverse effect on the Company, our investors, and the value of the Royalty Shares.

The Company will not seek rulings from the IRS with respect to any of the United States federal income tax considerations discussed in this Offering Circular. Thus, positions to be taken by the IRS as to tax consequences could differ from the positions taken by the Company.

The Company intends to provide relevant U.S. tax reporting information (e.g., Form 1099) to the Holders of the Royalty Shares. However, it may not be able to provide final tax filing information to the Holder of Royalty Shares for any given fiscal year until after the initial tax filing deadlines for Holders of the Royalty Shares tax returns. Each prospective investor is urged to consult with its own adviser as to the advisability and tax consequences of an investment in the Royalty Shares and plan to obtain extensions of the filing dates for their income tax returns as necessary.

 

15

Income Interests received by us from sources outside of the U.S. may be subject to non-U.S. withholding or other taxes.

Income Interests received by us from sources outside of the U.S. may be subject to non-U.S. withholding or other taxes. In addition, the Company may also be subject to taxes in some of the non-U.S. countries where the Company purchases and sells its investments. Taxes such as withholding tax, capital gains taxes, or similar taxes may be imposed on, and thereby reduce, profits of, or proceeds arising to, the Company in respect of the Royalty Shares. It is impossible to predict the rate of non-U.S. tax the Company will pay since the portion (if any) of the Company’s assets to be invested in non-U.S. countries is not known and non-U.S. tax laws are subject to change. The Holders of Royalty Shares will be informed by the Company as to their proportionate share of taxes paid by the Company, as applicable, which they will be required to include in their income. Each investor considering purchasing Royalty Shares should consult its own tax advisor with respect to the availability of credits against tax liability for such taxes.

Risks Related to Potential Conflicts of Interest

Potential conflicts of interest may arise among Jukebox Holding or its affiliates and the Company. Jukebox Holding and its affiliates have no fiduciary duties to the Company or Holders, which may permit them to favor their own interests to the detriment of the Company or Holders.

The Manager will manage the affairs of the Company. Conflicts of interest may arise among the Manager and its affiliates. As a result of these conflicts, the Manager may favor its own interests and the interests of its affiliates over the Company or Holders. These potential conflicts include, among others, the following:

 

•

The Company has agreed to indemnify the Manager and its affiliates pursuant to the Operating Agreement;

 

•

To the extent the Manager services clients other than the Company, the Manager is responsible for allocating its own limited resources among different clients and potential future business ventures, to each of which it owes fiduciary duties;

 

•

The Manager and its staff also service, or may in the future service, affiliates of Jukebox Holding, which may include other music royalty investment vehicles and their respective clients, and may not be able to devote all of its, or their, respective time or resources to the management of the affairs of the Company; and

 

•

The Manager, its affiliates and their officers and employees are not prohibited from engaging in other businesses or activities, including those that might be in direct competition with the Company.

By purchasing the Royalty Shares, investors agree and consent to the provisions set forth in the Subscription Agreement.

For a further discussion of the conflicts of interest among the Company, Jukebox Holding, the Manager, and others, see “Interest of Management and Others in Certain Transactions.”

Jukebox Holding and the Manager are affiliated with each other.

The services provided by the Manager to the Company pursuant to the Operating Agreement may be provided through other service providers, from time to time, including entities affiliated with the Company, like Jukebox Holding. Because Jukebox Holding and the Manager are affiliated with each other, any agreement between the Company and any service providers affiliated with Jukebox Holding are not negotiated on an arm’s-length basis. The Manager may be disincentivized from replacing an affiliated service provider due to its affiliated status. In connection with this conflict of interest, Holders should understand that affiliated service providers may receive fees for directly or indirectly providing services to the Company. In the course of the Manager’s management of the Company, the Manager may have an incentive to resolve questions between the Company and the affiliated service providers, in favor of the latter.

Sam Thacker is the Chief Operating Officer of Jukebox Holding and is an Income Interest Owner with whom we have entered into a Purchase Agreement for the acquisition of Income Interests.

Sam Thacker serves as the President of the Manager and Chief Operating Officer of Jukebox Holding. In connection with this Offering, the Company has entered into a Purchase Agreement with Mr. Thacker for the acquisition of certain Income Interests from Mr. Thacker. The Thacker Purchase Agreement was not negotiated between the parties at arm’s-length.

John Chapman is a director on the board of directors of Jukebox Holding and is also the sole owner and principal of Inkling Capital LLC, which is the sole member of Coda Songs LLC. Coda Songs LLC is an Income Interest Owner with which we have entered into a Purchase Agreement for the acquisition of Income Interests.

John Chapman is a director on the board of directors of Jukebox Holding and is also the sole owner and principal of Inkling Capital LLC, which is the sole member of Coda Songs LLC. In connection with this Offering, the Company has entered into a Purchase Agreement with Coda Songs LLC. The Coda Purchase Agreement was not negotiated between the parties at arm’s-length.

The Manager and Jukebox Holding, the parent of the Manager, and their respective officers, directors, and employees, will have other business interests and obligations to other entities, including interests and obligations relating to the music industry.

Jukebox Holding, the parent of the Manager, expects to engage in other business activities, including other activities relating to the music industry. Additionally, Jukebox Holding and/or the Manager may establish other entities similar to the Company and otherwise engage in other activities. The Manager is not required to operate the Company as its sole and exclusive function and it will have other business interests and will engage in other activities in addition to those relating to the Company. And, while the Company is dependent on the Manager and the Manager’s officers and employees to provide essential services pursuant to the Operating Agreement, their other business interests and activities could divert time and attention from operating the business of the Company. See “Interest of Management and Others in Certain Transactions” and “Management” for additional information.

Holders cannot be assured of the Manager’s continued services, the discontinuance of which may be detrimental to the Company.

Holders cannot be assured that the Manager will be willing or able to continue to serve as Manager to the Company pursuant to the Operating Agreement for any length of time. If the Manager discontinues its activities on behalf of the Company and a substitute administrator is not appointed, the Company may experience substantial disruption to its business operations.

Appointment of a substitute administrator will not guarantee the Company’s undisrupted operation. Because a substitute administrator may have no experience managing the administration of a music royalty investment vehicle and providing other related management services, a substitute administrator may not have the experience, knowledge or expertise required to ensure that the Company will operate successfully or continue to operate at all.

Lack of separate counsel for the Company.

The counsel of the Company (“Legal Counsel”) is also counsel to Jukebox Holding, the Manager and Jukebox Technology (the “Jukebox Entities”). Because Legal Counsel represents both the Company and the Jukebox Entities, certain conflicts of interest exist and may arise. To the extent that an irreconcilable conflict develops between the Company and any of the Jukebox Entities, Legal Counsel may represent one or more of the Jukebox Entities and not the Company. Legal Counsel may, in the future, render services to the Company or one or more of the Jukebox Entities with respect to activities relating to the Company as well as other unrelated activities. Legal Counsel is not representing any prospective investors of any Royalty Shares in connection with any Offering, although the prospective investors may rely on the opinion of Legal Counsel provided at Exhibit 12.1 to the offering statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part. Prospective investors are advised to consult their own independent counsel with respect to the other legal and tax implications of an investment this Offering.

Holders may be adversely affected by the lack of independent advisers representing them.

The Company has consulted with counsel, accountants and other advisers regarding the formation and operation of the Company. No counsel was appointed to represent investors in connection with the formation of the Company or the establishment of the terms of the Subscription Agreement and the Royalty Shares. Moreover, no counsel has been appointed to represent Holders in connection with an investment in the Royalty Shares. Accordingly, an investor should consult his, her or its own legal, tax and financial advisers regarding the desirability of an investment in the Royalty Shares. Lack of such consultation may lead to an undesirable investment decision with respect to investment in the Royalty Shares.

DILUTION

The Company is currently only offering Royalty Shares to the public in this Offering at the offering price specified in this Offering Circular. The Company may issue additional Royalty Shares in the future, with such additional Royalty Shares corresponding to certain additional Income Interests that the Company may acquire in the future. Since any additional Royalty Shares issued in the future will correspond with the Company’s proportionate acquisition of such Income Interests, any such future issuance of Royalty Shares will not result in the dilution to any investors associated with this Offering.

 

18

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Company is selling the Royalty Shares directly through the JKBX Platform and is not selling the Royalty Shares or soliciting investors through commissioned sales agents or broker-dealers on a “best efforts” basis. No other affiliated entity involved in the offer and sale of the Royalty Shares is currently a member firm of the FINRA and no person associated with us will be deemed to be a broker solely by reason of his or her participation in the sale of the Royalty Shares. In conducting this offering, associated persons of the Company, including its Manager, which is acting as a statutory underwriter, intend to rely on the exemption from (securities) broker registration requirements provided in Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rule 3a4-1. Where appropriate, in order to conduct the Offering, the Company intends to register with state securities regulators as an Issuer-Dealer or register one or more of its associated persons, including the Manager, where required, with state securities regulators as an Issuer-Agent.

For additional information about the JKBX Platform, please see “Offering Summary—About the JKBX Platform.”

The JKBX Platform is not subject to the registration requirements of Section 304 of the JOBS Act because it does not offer and sell securities pursuant to Section 4(a)(6) of the Securities Act, and, therefore, does not meet the definition of a “funding portal”.

This offering circular and supplements hereto will be furnished to prospective investors upon their request via electronic PDF format and will be available for viewing and download 24 hours per day, 7 days per week on the JKBX Platform website, as well as on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Subscriptions will be made only through the JKBX Platform and payment will be made directly to the Company. The Company and its associated persons will close sales of Royalty Shares to investors in the Offering on an ongoing, continuous basis and will purchase Income Interests pursuant to each applicable Purchase Agreement in the form of Royalty Rights as proceeds from the Offering are received by the Company from investors through the sale of Royalty Shares in the Offering that correspond to such Royalty Rights. The subscription funds paid by investors as part of the subscription process will be held in a designated account of the Company with [     ] or a similar institution.

As described more fully in “Estimate Use of Proceeds,” all costs, fees, and expenses of the Offering will be paid by the Company in the following order of priority of payment:

 

•

Acquisition Cost of the Royalty Rights;

 

•

Reimbursement of Organizational and Offering Costs; and

 

•

Net Proceeds to the Company.

The Company is seeking to qualify an amount of Royalty Shares that it reasonably expects to be able to sell within two (2) years from the date of initial qualification. In any event, however, the Offering will not exceed three (3) years from the date of commencement in accordance with Rule 251(d)(3)(F) of Regulation A. The Company reserves the right to terminate the Offering for any reason at any time prior to the final closing.

We reserve the right to reject any investor’s subscription in whole or in part for any reason, including if we determine in our sole and absolute discretion that such investor is not a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Section 18(b)(4)(D)(ii) of the Securities Act. 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.

To the extent that the funds are not ultimately received by us or are subsequently withdrawn by the subscriber, whether due to an ACH chargeback or otherwise, the Subscription Agreement will be considered terminated, and the subscriber will not be entitled to any Royalty Shares subscribed for or distributions of revenue related thereto that may have accrued. Such subscriber may further be restricted from using the JKBX Platform, as determined in our sole discretion.

Testing-the-Waters: Reservation Process

In order for us to assess the demand for and valuation of Music Assets, the corresponding rights of which are available to be issued through Royalty Shares pursuant hereto, we utilize a reservation process conducted on the JKBX Platform (the “Reservation Process”) during a testing the waters period under Rule 255 of Regulation A. The Reservation Process is non-binding, and no commitments to invest or funds will be accepted prior to qualification of a series of Royalty Shares, and any reservations made pursuant to the Reservation Process may be cancelled for any reason at any time. Reservations made pursuant to the Reservation Process that are not subsequently cancelled will nonetheless not obligate a prospective investor to later complete the relevant purchase, unless affirmatively authorized by the prospective investor after reviewing the terms and price in connection with the relevant Royalty Share. The Reservation Process is solely being used to gauge interest in certain Music Assets and their corresponding Royalty Rights, as well as to create a mailing list for prospective investors who wish to receive further information in connection with the Offering. Certain Music Assets that are presented in the Reservation Process may never become available for purchase as Royalty Shares. Furthermore, Royalty Shares that are made available for purchase may nonetheless become oversubscribed despite a prospective investor’s participation in the Reservation Process.

Upon the qualification of a series of Royalty Shares, prospective investors who have indicated interest in such Royalty Shares through the Reservation Process will be contacted by Jukebox Technology to establish an account on the JKBX Platform for purposes of participation in the Offering. Prospective investors will also receive a copy of the Offering Circular at this time, before any purchase of Royalty Shares is enabled. The price for each Royalty Share as indicated in the Reservation Process is subject to change, such that the actual purchase price for such Royalty Share may be higher or lower at the time such Royalty Share is made available for purchase.

Online Subscriptions and Bank Account

Royalty Shares being qualified in this Offering will be offered by the Company and its associated persons through the JKBX Platform located at https://www.jkbx.com. In conducting this offering, our associated persons intend to rely on the exemption from broker-dealer registration contained in Exchange Act Rule 3a4-1. The Company’s offering on the JKBX Platform will allow investors to acquire economic exposure to the Company’s contractual right to Income Interests from certain Purchase Agreements. Through the JKBX Platform, investors can, once they establish a profile, browse and screen potential music royalty investments offered by the Company, view details of an investment and sign contractual documents online, link a financial account to their JKBX Platform account, and indicate interest in Royalty Shares. After the qualification by the SEC of the offering statement of which this Offering Circular is a part, the Company and its associated persons will conduct the Offering through the JKBX Platform, whereby investors will be able to receive, review, execute and deliver Subscription Agreements electronically as well as make payment of the purchase price by authorizing a transfer from their JKBX Platform account into our operating account. The Company may also permit payment to be made by credit cards, provided that such payments may be subject to additional restrictions. Investors contemplating using their credit card to invest are urged to carefully review “Risk Factors—Risks of investing using a credit card.” In the event the Company enables credit card payment for subscriptions, such credit card payment will result in incurrence of third-party fees and charges, interest obligations which will lower your expected investment returns and could exceed your actual returns. In addition, if you cannot meet your minimum payment obligation, you may damage your credit profile which would make it more difficult and more expensive to borrow in the future. On any relevant closing date, the funds in the account will be released to us and the associated Royalty Shares will be issued to the investors in this Offering. If there are no closings of this Offering, the funds deposited in the designated account will be promptly returned to subscribers, without deduction and generally without interest.

 

19

Upon each closing under the terms as set out in this Offering Circular, funds will be immediately transferred to us (where the funds will be available for use in the operations of the Company’s business in a manner consistent with the “Estimated Use of Proceeds” in this Offering Circular).

Purchase Agreement with Owners of Compositions and Recordings

We have entered, and will enter, into Purchase Agreements with certain Income Interest Owners. Through the Purchase Agreement, the Income Interest Owners will sell to us certain Income Interests related to certain Music Assets owned by such Income Interest Owner. The Purchase Agreement shall continue for a specified term of years, as the case may be, by which the Income Interest Owner will, on an ongoing basis, enter into multiple asset purchase transactions in the form of schedules to each Purchase Agreement (each, a “Purchase Agreement Schedule”), which are to be negotiated in good faith by the Income Interest Owner and the Company. In connection with each Purchase Agreement, the Income Interest Owner sells, assigns, and transfers a portion or percentage of their Income Interests in each Music Asset to the Company, as well as, if available in certain cases, a right to use any artist or writer materials in the Company’s marketing and promotions. The Purchase Agreement and each respective Purchase Agreement Schedule are constructed so that the Company receives only passive Income Interests in Music Assets, but not the copyright, administration, or distribution rights. The prices for each Income Interest purchased by the Company in the form of Royalty Rights are also negotiated in good faith and are individualized to each Purchase Agreement Schedule. This price negotiation includes the disclosure of the percent Income Interest the Income Interest Owner has in each Music Asset, and how much of such Income Interest they are willing to sell to the Company. In order to sell a portion or all of the Income Interest Owner’s Income Interest to the Company, the Income Interest Owner must assign their Income Interests in the specifically negotiated for Music Asset to the Company.

Each Purchase Agreement provides the Company with the option to purchase any one or more of the Income Interests provided for in the Purchase Agreement Schedules. There is no minimum amount of Income Interests that must be purchased either as a proportion of all such Income Interests that have been made available pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or as it relates to other Income Interests for which the Company has an option to purchase in the Purchase Agreement. Independent of the terms of any specific Purchase Agreement(s), the Company will use its discretion in creating each series of Royalty Shares and the Income Interests associated therewith. In so doing, the Company may elect to issue series of Royalty Shares in this Offering that reflect economic exposure to Income Interests related to a single Music Asset (i.e., a song) or a compilation of Music Assets (i.e., an album). Each series of Royalty Shares and information about the Income Interests and related Music Asset(s) which comprise the series are described in Description of the Music Assets Underlying the Royalty Shares, the “Royalty Shares Offering Table” beginning on page 65 and the “Composition and Recording Rights” table beginning on page 48. After qualification of an offering statement, the Company may add additional Royalty Shares or series of Royalty Shares by post-qualification amendment to the offering statement.

Book-Entry Records of Royalty Shares

Ownership of the Royalty Shares will be represented in “book-entry” only form directly in the name of the respective owner of the Royalty Shares and shall be recorded by the Company and no physical certificates shall be issued, nor received, by the Company or any other person. The Company shall send out email confirmations of positions and notifications of changes “from” us upon each and every event affecting any person’s ownership interest.

Investment Amount Limitations

The minimum purchase threshold for an investor to participate in this Offering is one (1) Royalty Share per series. We can waive any investment amount limitations or requirements by posting such change to our website or on a case-by-case basis in our sole discretion. Subscriptions, once received, are irrevocable by the investors but can be rejected by us.

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, we encourage you to review Rule 251(d)(2)(i)(C) of Regulation A. For general information on investing, you are encouraged to refer to www.investor.gov.

As a Tier 2, Regulation A offering, investors must comply with the 10% limitation to investment in the Offering. The only investor in this Offering exempt from this limitation is an accredited investor, an “Accredited Investor,” as defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D. If you meet one of the following tests, you should qualify as an Accredited Investor:

 

(i)

A non-accredited, natural person may only invest funds which do not exceed 10% of the greater of the purchaser’s annual income or net worth (please see below on how to calculate your net worth).

For the purposes of calculating your Net Worth, it is defined as the difference between total assets and total liabilities. This calculation must exclude the value of your primary residence and may exclude any indebtedness secured by your primary residence (up to an amount equal to the value of your primary residence). In the case of fiduciary accounts, net worth and/or income suitability requirements may be satisfied by the beneficiary of the account or by the fiduciary, if the fiduciary directly or indirectly provides funds for the purchase of the Royalty Shares.

These resale restrictions may under certain circumstances apply to resales of the Royalty Shares outside of Canada.

Notice to prospective investors in the European Economic Area

The Royalty Shares are not intended to be offered, sold, or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold, or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Director 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97, as amended, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor (“Qualified Investor”) as defined in Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended, the “Prospectus Regulation”). Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Royalty Shares or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Royalty Shares or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

This Offering Circular has been prepared on the basis that any offer of Royalty Shares in the EEA will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of notes. Neither the Company nor the Manager has authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of Royalty Shares in the EEA other than to Qualified Investors. This Offering Circular is not a prospectus for the purposes of the Prospectus Regulation.

In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area (each, a “Relevant Member State”), no offer of Royalty Shares may be made to the public in that Relevant Member State other than:

 

•

To any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive;

 

•

To fewer than 100 or, if the Relevant Member State has implemented the relevant provision of the 2010 PD Amending Directive, 150, natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors as defined in the Prospectus Directive), as permitted under the Prospectus Directive, subject to obtaining the prior consent of the representatives; or

 

•

In any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, provided that no such offer of Royalty Shares shall require us to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.

Each person in a Relevant Member State who initially acquires any Royalty Shares or to whom any offer is made will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed that it is a “qualified investor” within the meaning of the law in that Relevant Member State implementing Article 2(1)(e) of the Prospectus Directive. In the case of any Royalty Shares being offered to a financial intermediary as that term is used in Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, each such financial intermediary will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed that the Royalty Shares acquired by it in the offer have not been acquired on a non-discretionary basis on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in circumstances which may give rise to an offer of any Royalty Shares to the public other than their offer or resale in a Relevant Member State to qualified investors as so defined or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the representatives has been obtained to each such proposed offer or resale.

We, the representatives and their affiliates will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, acknowledgements and agreements.

This Offering Circular has been prepared on the basis that any offer of Royalty Shares in any Relevant Member State will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Royalty Shares. Accordingly, any person making or intending to make an offer in that Relevant Member State of Royalty Shares which are the subject of the Offering contemplated in this Offering Circular may only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for us to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive in relation to such offer. We have not authorized, nor do we authorize, the making of any offer of Royalty Shares in circumstances in which an obligation arises for us to publish a prospectus for such offer.

For the purpose of the above provisions, the expression “an offer to the public” in relation to any Royalty Shares in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Royalty Shares to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the Royalty Shares, as the same may be varied in the Relevant Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in the Relevant Member State and the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member States) and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State and the expression “2010 PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU.

This Offering Circular may only be communicated or caused to be communicated and is being communicated only to, and is directed only at, persons who (i) are outside the United Kingdom (the “UK”), or (ii) have professional experience in matters relating to investments and who are investment professionals, as such term is defined in Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (as amended, the “Financial Promotion Order”), or (iii) fall within Article 49(2)(a) through (d) (“High net worth companies, unincorporated associations, etc.”) of the Financial Promotion Order, or (iv) are persons to whom an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, as amended (the “FSMA”)) in connection with the issue or sale of any securities may otherwise lawfully be communicated or be caused to be communicated (all such persons together being referred to as “Relevant Persons”). In the UK, this Offering Circular or any of its contents must not be acted on or relied on by persons who are not Relevant Persons. In the UK, any investment or investment activity to which this Offering Circular relates, including the Royalty Shares, is available only to Relevant Persons and will be engaged in only with Relevant Persons.

25

Prospective investors in the UK are advised that all, or most, of the protections afforded by the UK regulatory system will not apply to an investment in the Royalty Shares and that compensation will not be available under the UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme.

The Royalty Shares are not intended to be offered, sold, or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold, or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the UK. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/565 (as amended) as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (as amended, the “EUWA”); (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the FSMA and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 (as amended) as if forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the EUWA; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 as if forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (as amended, the “UK Prospectus Regulation”) (a “UK Qualified Investor”). Consequently no key information document required by Regulation EU No 1286/2014 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the “UK PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Royalty Shares or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Royalty Shares or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

This Offering Circular has been prepared on the basis that any offer of Royalty Shares in the UK will be made pursuant to an exemption under the UK Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of notes. This Offering Circular is not a prospectus for the purposes of the UK Prospectus Regulation. Neither the Company nor the Manager has authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of Royalty Shares in the UK other than to UK Qualified Investors. This Offering Circular is not a prospectus for the purposes of the UK Prospectus Regulation.

ESTIMATED USE OF PROCEEDS

The allocation of the net proceeds from this Offering set forth below represents our intentions based upon our current plans and assumptions regarding our acquisition of Royalty Rights and the issuance of Royalty Shares. The Company reserves the right to modify the use of proceeds. Many of the amounts set forth in the table below represent our best estimate since they cannot be precisely calculated at this time.

As the proceeds raised in this offering primarily will be used to purchase the Royalty Rights described herein (subject to the payment of any disclosed offering expenses), we do not anticipate that the amount of Royalty Shares sold in this Offering will change our use of proceeds in any material way. Any proceeds raised by the Company in excess of the aggregate expenses described and accounted for in the table below will be used by the Company as working capital to fund our operations, including the provision of ongoing administrative services related to the Royalty Shares and any fees payable to the Administrative Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement. As a wholly owned subsidiary of the Manager, the Company may make periodic distributions of its working capital to the Manager at the Manager’s discretion, based on a comprehensive analysis of financial statements, profit projections, and regulatory requirements. Any such distributions will only be made to the Manager, and not any of its executive officers, directors or other persons. See the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Management Compensation” sections for more information.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Overview

We were formed as a Delaware limited liability on April 3, 2023 to facilitate and manage investors’ economic exposure to the Royalty Rights. The Company will facilitate and manage investors’ economic exposure to the Royalty Rights by issuing contractual rights (known as Royalty Shares) to receive a specified portion of Income Interests we receive that relate to Royalty Rights for a specific Music Asset or compilation of Music Assets (as applicable) as set forth in the “Royalty Shares Offering Table” beginning on page 65 to investors in this Offering.

The Royalty Shares represent the contractual rights to receive a specified portion of Income Interests we receive that relate to Royalty Rights for a specific Music Asset or compilation of Music Assets (as applicable) set forth in the “Royalty Shares Offering Table”. The Company will enter into one or more Purchase Agreements with Income Interest Owners related to Music Assets. Royalty Shares will be issued in series, with each series corresponding to a portion of the Royalty Rights associated with a specified Music Asset or compilation of Music Assets (as applicable). Investors who acquire Royalty Shares from the Company will be entitled to receive Royalty Share Payments, a pro rata portion of the royalties, fees, and other income streams embodied in Income Interests we receive from the specified Royalty Rights that correspond to such Royalty Shares (less any fees and expenses as further described herein), calculated based on the number of Royalty Shares of a particular series that an investor holds compared to the total outstanding number of Royalty Shares of such series. Purchasing Royalty Shares does not confer to the investor any ownership in the Company or the underlying music portfolio containing the Music Assets.

The Company operates pursuant to the Operating Agreement. Prior to the date of this Offering Circular, the Company has not conducted any operations and does not intend to conduct any business activities except for activities relating to facilitating investor economic exposure to, investment in, and maintenance of rights associated with the Royalty Shares. For a description of the Operating Agreement, see “Summary of Operating Agreement” below.

We engage with Income Interests Owners and may acquire Income Interests from such Income Interest Owners pursuant to one or more separately negotiated Purchase Agreements. The Company has entered into those certain Purchase Agreements described in “Description of the Music Assets Underlying the Royalty Shares.” Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, the Income Interest Owners will sell their passive Income Interests (and not the copyright or distribution rights) in certain Music Assets to the Company, as well as, if available in certain cases, a right to use any artist materials in the Company’s marketing and promotions.

In order to fund the purchase of Royalty Rights, we are offering Royalty Shares in the Offering. We intend to use a portion of the proceeds from this Offering to acquire the Royalty Rights pursuant to the Purchase Agreements. The Purchase Agreement Schedule(s) will be in the name of the Company, as purchaser, and the capital raised in this Offering, as well as the Purchase Agreements and any rights associated therewith, will be our primary assets. Subject to any fees and expenses described herein, Royalty Share Holders will be the only persons with the right to receive economic exposure to the Royalty Rights provided for in the Purchase Agreements.

We expect to receive Income Interests and other cash flow pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and to make Royalty Share Payments to Holders from monies associated with Income Interests received pursuant to our Royalty Rights, following the deduction of fees and expenses by the Company. See “Description of Royalty Shares—Distributions” below.

The management of Royalty Shares will involve management of the Company’s relationship with Holders of Royalty Shares, as well as the oversight of compliance with the terms of the Purchase Agreements entered into by the Company and Income Interest Owners in order to ensure that the Company is receiving all payments to which it is owed pursuant to the terms of the applicable Purchase Agreement. We will monitor the Income Interests that are due on the Royalty Rights and will conduct Royalty Share Payments after such distributions are received in accordance with the procedure described in “Distribution Policy,” if applicable.

Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Manager will manage our day-to-day operations through the provision of administrative services, including overseeing matters relating to the Purchase Agreements. The Manager will also manage any extraordinary or non-routine services which may be required, from time-to-time, including, without limitation, litigation or other transactions involving the Company. The Company will reimburse the Manager for ordinary and necessary costs it incurs in connection with our organization and the offering of Royalty Shares and we also reimburse the Manager at cost for its overhead, employee costs, utilities or technology costs, as well as for any out-of-pocket expenses paid to third parties in connection with providing services to us. The Manager may, at its sole discretion, decide to defer or waive the reimbursement of any costs or expenses incurred on our behalf. See “Management Compensation” below.

Market Opportunity

The music industry, due in part to the advent of streaming services, has grown exponentially in recent years. Last year, 2022, marked a 9% growth in revenue—the eighth consecutive year of growth. Streaming platforms such as Spotify, the largest streaming platform, also incorporate social networking elements, allowing listeners to real-time see what their friends are listening to, share what they are listening to, and collaborate on playlists. A 2022 report from the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry reported that on average, those who engage with music spend 20.1 hours each week listening to music. While 20.1 hours a week listening to music is likely far more time than an individual who invests in the traditional stock market spends engaging with the companies they invest in, there are still no transparent and accessible methods for listeners to participate, as an investment opportunity, in the music they listen to. The global music market forecasts for 2022 and 2023 are increasing by 7% and 5% respectively, while 2030 forecasts are increasing by 10%, as reported in Goldman Sachs, “Music in the Air,” Equity Research June 13, 2022 report.

In order to address the lack of opportunities to invest in assets related to the music industry, Jukebox Technology, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jukebox Holding, has developed the JKBX Platform, on which the Company, pursuant to a Platform Access Agreement, is able to host this Offering and to offer listeners the opportunity to take part in investment opportunities for their favorite artists’ songs and albums. The JKBX Platform provides its users with the ability to discover the Company’s Offering and to invest in series of Royalty Shares related to the sound recordings and compositions of their favorite artists and songwriters and receive any Royalty Share Payments related to those Music Assets. The JKBX Platform combines elements of a social network and music platform with the ability to invest in series of Royalty Shares.

The Music Catalog

A given Music Asset, such as a song, is generally comprised of two copyrights: (1) the musical composition copyright and (2) the sound recording copyright. Typically, there are multiple people or entities that own and control portions of both the musical composition copyright and the sound recording copyright, including recording artists, songwriters, publishers, record labels, and investment firms and/or funds, or others.

Each copyright in a given song generates separate and distinct revenue streams for the copyright owner. Just as with copyright ownership, multiple people and entities typically own and control the Income Interest, namely, the right to collect and receive the royalties, fees and other income streams related to or derived from a Music Asset. The royalties, fees, and other income streams embodied in an Income Interest are generated by various sources.

The royalties, fees, and other monies embodied in an Income Interest are generated by various sources. For example, on the composition side: (i) mechanical royalties are generated by the exploitation of a composition (a) on an on-demand streaming platform (like Spotify), (b) digital downloads and (c) physical sales; (ii) public performance royalties are generated by the exploitation of a composition (a) on a non-interactive streaming platform (like Pandora), (b) on an on-demand streaming platform, (c) radio, (d) live performances, (e) at restaurants, bars, and other venues and (f) on television or other television-like uses; (iii) print royalties are generated by the exploitation of a composition in: (a) physical print sheet music, (b) digital sheet music and (c) lyrics; (iv) synchronization fees are generated by the exploitation of a composition in connection with an audiovisual medium, like a television show, advertisement, video game, app, or film; and (v) social media monetization monies are generated by the exploitation of the composition on various social media platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. On the recording side: (i) sales royalties are generated by the exploitation of a recording (a) on an on-demand streaming platform, (b) digital downloads and (c) physical sales; (ii) synchronization fees are generated by the exploitation of the recording in connection with an audiovisual, like a television show, advertisement, video game, app or film; (iii) digital performance royalties are generated by the exploitation of the recording on a non-interactive streaming platform, such as digital and satellite radio; (iv) neighboring rights are public performance royalties generated by exploitations of a recording (a) on the radio outside the United States, (b) at restaurants, bars, and other venues, and (c) on certain television or television-like uses; (v) social media monetization monies are generated by the exploitation of the recording on various social media platforms like YouTube, Instagram and TikTok; (vi) other income generated by a recording that doesn’t fit clearly into any of the above categories; and (vii) royalty participant royalties are generated by the exploitations of the recording listed in (i)-(v) above, but paid to third-parties related to the recording’s production such as producers, artists, and engineers.

As described further below, we will purchase Income Interests relating to certain Music Assets and accordingly will have the Royalty Right. The copyright owner retains the copyright in and to the songs and may separately retain a certain percentage of the Income Interest as well. Each series of Royalty Shares shall correspond to a certain portion of the Royalty Rights relating to a single Music Asset or a compilation of Music Assets (as applicable) and the Company shall distribute Royalty Share Payments to the Holders of the corresponding series of Royalty Shares as described under “Distribution Policy” and “Description of the Royalty Shares—Distributions.”

The Purchase Agreements and Royalty Rights

We engage with Income Interest Owners and may acquire Income Interests from such Income Interest Owners pursuant to one or more separately negotiated Purchase Agreements. In so doing, we provide investors in this Offering with the opportunity to invest in and receive Royalty Share Payments from the ongoing royalty and other income streams related to or derived from Music Assets associated with various artists and songwriters, including well-known or popular artists and

 

30

songwriters, through the JKBX Platform. The Company has entered into the Purchase Agreements described in “Description of the Music Assets Underlying the Royalty Shares.” Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, the Income Interest Owners will sell their passive Income Interests (and not the copyright, administration, or distribution rights) in certain compositions and/or recordings, as well as, if available in certain cases, a right to use any artist or writer materials in the Company’s marketing and promotions.

In some cases, the Company will review the entire catalog of an Income Interest Owner and identify with the Income Interest Owner the Income Interests that we will buy from the Income Interest Owner. The Income Interest Owner also provides us with key information related to the Music Assets such as, song titles, recording artists and songwriters for each associated song, song release year, chain of title history (if available), term, historical royalty data of Income Interest Owner’s total Income Interest embodied in the Music Asset, income sources included in the Music Assets (e.g., mechanical royalties, public performance royalties, synchronization fees, etc.), sound or music video recording unique identifier(s) as issued under the convention of the International Standard Musical Work Code (“ISWC”) or International Standard Recording Code (“ISRC”) (if available), recoupment and account statuses of the Music Assets (if available), the third-party music companies that currently exploit the songs and collect the income in relation to the Music Assets (if available), and the current accounting schedules for such Music Assets (if available). See “Description of the Music Assets Underlying the Royalty Shares—Composition and Recording Rights Table” and the “Composition and Recording Rights” table beginning on page 48.

We have entered into Purchase Agreements with certain Income Interest Owners, who are the owners of rights, title, interests, and other related intellectual property in certain Music Assets owned by such Income Interest Owners. Through the Purchase Agreement, the Income Interest Owners will sell Income Interests in certain Music Assets owned by such seller. During the term of a Purchase Agreement, an Income Interest Owner may, from time to time and on an ongoing basis, enter into multiple asset purchase transactions pursuant to such Purchase Agreement, which are to be negotiated in good faith by and between the Income Interest Owner and the Company. In connection with each asset purchase, the seller sells, assigns, and transfers the specified portion of their Income Interest in each specified Music Asset to the Company, as well as a right, if available in certain cases, to use any artist materials in the Company’s marketing and promotions. The Purchase Agreement is constructed so that the Company receives only the passive income interests in the song royalties, not the copyright, administration, or distribution rights. The prices for each asset sold are also negotiated in good faith and are individualized to each Purchase Agreement. This price negotiation includes the disclosure of the percent Income Interest the seller has in each recording and/or composition, and how much of such Income Interest they are willing to sell to the Company. In order to sell a portion or all of the Income Interest Owners’ Income Interests to the Company, the seller must assign such Income Interests in each song to the Company. See “Description of the Music Assets Underlying the Royalty Shares” for a description of each Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company may acquire Income Interests relating to Music Assets that correspond to each series of Royalty Shares offered hereby.

The term of each series of the Royalty Shares will be consistent with the term of the corresponding Royalty Rights of the underlying Purchase Agreements. Terms can be as long as the life of copyright. For more information on specific Royalty Shares, see “Description of the Music Assets Underlying the Royalty Shares.” Through the Purchase Agreement, the Income Interest Owners will sell to us certain Income Interests related to certain Music Assets owned by such Income Interest Owner. The Purchase Agreement shall continue for a specified term of years, as the case may be, by which the Income Interest Owner will, on an ongoing basis, enter into multiple asset purchase transactions in the form of schedules to each Purchase Agreement (each, a “Purchase Agreement Schedule”), which are to be negotiated in good faith by the Income Interest Owner and the Company. In connection with each Purchase Agreement, the Income Interest Owner sells, assigns, and transfers a portion or percentage of their Income Interests in each Music Asset to the Company, as well as, if available in certain cases, a right to use any artist or writer materials in the Company’s marketing and promotions. The Purchase Agreement and each respective Purchase Agreement Schedule are constructed so that the Company receives only passive Income Interests in Music Assets, but not the copyright, administration, or distribution rights. The prices for each Income Interest purchased by the Company in the form of Royalty Rights are also negotiated in good faith and are individualized to each Purchase Agreement Schedule. This price negotiation includes the disclosure of the Income Interests the Income Interest Owner has in each Music Asset, and how much of such Income Interest they are willing to sell to the Company. In order to sell a portion or all of the Income Interest Owner’s Income Interest to the Company, the Income Interest Owner must assign their Income Interests in the specifically negotiated for Music Asset to the Company.

Each Purchase Agreement provides the Company with the option to purchase any one or more of the Income Interests provided for in the Purchase Agreement Schedules. There is no minimum amount of Income Interests that must be purchased either as a proportion of all such Income Interests that have been made available pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or as it relates to other Income Interests for which the Company has an option to purchase in the Purchase Agreement. Independent of the terms of any specific Purchase Agreement(s), the Company will use its discretion in creating each series of Royalty Shares and the Income Interests associated therewith. In so doing, the Company may elect to issue series of Royalty Shares in this Offering that reflect economic exposure to Income Interests related to a single Music Asset (i.e., a song) or a compilation of Music Assets (i.e., an album). Each series of Royalty Shares and information about the Income Interests and related Music Asset(s) which comprise the series are described in the “Royalty Shares Offering Table” beginning on page 65.

As described in the “Description of the Trust Agreement” section below, we anticipate granting any Royalty Rights received pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and any Royalty Share Payments payable to Holders of Royalty Shares to a Trust to be held for the benefit of Royalty Share Holders, with the Company serving in separate and distinct capacities as grantor of the Trust and Management Trustee. As such, and subject to the terms of the Trust Agreement, we will not engage in the business of buying and selling any Royalty Rights acquired pursuant to this Offering and the Purchase Agreements related thereto. Any Royalty Rights received are intended to be held for the duration of the life of such rights in trust for the benefit of the holders of the related series of Royalty Shares, in order to ensure the payment of any corresponding Royalty Share Payments to such persons.

Summary of Operating Agreement

The Company is governed by that certain Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, dated as of [    ], (the “Operating Agreement”). As of the date of this filing, all of the membership interests of the Company are held by the Manager in its own capacity. The following summarizes some of the key provisions of the Operating Agreement. This summary is qualified in its entirety by the Operating Agreement itself, which is included as Exhibit 2.2 to the offering statement of which this Offering Circular forms an integral part.

Organization and Duration

We were formed on April 3, 2023 as a Delaware limited liability company pursuant to the Delaware LLC Act. We will remain in existence until liquidated in accordance with the terms of the Operating Agreement.

Purpose and Powers

Under the Operating Agreement, we are permitted to engage in such activities as determined by the Manager that lawfully may be conducted by a limited liability company organized under Delaware law and, in connection therewith, to exercise all of the rights and powers conferred upon us and the Manager pursuant to the agreement relating to such business activity.

Manager and its Powers

We are a limited liability company as set forth in Section 101 of the Delaware LLC Act. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Manager will have complete and exclusive discretion in the management and control of the Company’s affairs and business, and shall possess all powers necessary, convenient or appropriate to carrying out the purposes and business of the Company, including doing all things and taking all actions necessary to carry out the terms and provisions of each of the foregoing agreements.

Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Manager shall have full authority in its discretion to exercise, in the name and on behalf of the Company, all rights and powers of a “manager” of a limited liability company under the Delaware LLC

 

31

Act necessary or convenient to carry out our purposes. Any person not a party to the Operating Agreement dealing with the Company will be entitled to rely conclusively upon the power and authority of the Manager in all respects, and to authorize the execution of any and all agreements, instruments, and other writings on behalf and in the name of the Company.

Limited Liability

The liability of each member of our Company shall be limited as provided in the Delaware LLC Act and as set forth in the Operating Agreement. No member of our Company shall be obligated to restore by way of capital contribution or otherwise any deficits in its capital account (if such deficits occur).

The Delaware LLC Act provides that a member of a Delaware limited liability company who receives a distribution from such company and knew at the time of the distribution that the distribution was in violation of the Delaware LLC Act shall be liable to the Company for the distribution for three years. Under the Delaware LLC Act, a limited liability company may not make a distribution to a member if, after the distribution, all liabilities of the Company, would exceed the fair value of the assets of the Company. The fair value of property subject to liability for which recourse of creditors is limited shall be included in the assets of the Company only to the extent that the fair value of that property exceeds the nonrecourse liability. Under the Delaware LLC Act, an assignee who becomes a substituted member of a company is liable for the obligations of his assignor to make contributions to the Company, except the assignee is not obligated for liabilities unknown to him at the time the assignee became a member and that could not be ascertained from the Operating Agreement.

Indemnification of the Manager

The Operating Agreement provides that the Manager will not be liable to the Company or any interest Holders for any act or omission taken by them in connection with the business of the Company that has not been determined in a final, non-appealable decision of a court, arbitrator, or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to constitute fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence.

Manager

The Operating Agreement designates the Manager as the managing member of the Company. The Manager is responsible for identifying Music Assets to be acquired using the proceeds from this Offering. See “Management” for additional information regarding the Manager.

Our day-to-day operations are managed by the Manager. The Manager performs its duties and responsibilities pursuant to the Operating Agreement. The Manager has the exclusive right to manage and operate the Company, subject to the powers of the Manager reserved under the Operating Agreement. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Manager will pay, on behalf of the Company, all ordinary and necessary costs in connection with our organization and the offering of Royalty Shares qualified in this Offering (“O&O Costs”), including costs associated with the marketing and distribution of Royalty Shares, expenses for printing, EDGARizing and amending offering statements or supplementing offering circulars, mailing and distributing costs, telephones, internet and other telecommunications costs, all advertising and marketing expenses, charges of experts and fees, expenses and taxes related to the filing, registration and qualification of the sale of Royalty Shares under state securities laws, including taxes and fees and accountants’ and attorneys’ fees. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, we also reimburse the Manager at cost for its overhead, employee costs, utilities or technology costs (“Manager Operational Costs”), as well as for any out-of-pocket expenses paid to third parties in connection with providing services to us, including expenses incurred by Jukebox Holding in the performance of services to the Manager under the Administrative Services Agreement between Jukebox Holding and the Manager (“Manager Out-of-Pocket Expenses”).

We will reimburse the Manager for all O&O Costs up to a maximum of 0.50% of the aggregate gross offering proceeds from this Offering. We anticipate that reimbursement payments for O&O Costs will be made to the Manager in monthly installments. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Manager may invoice us at cost for any Manager Operational Costs and Manager Out-of-Pocket Expenses attributable to services provided to the Company. Reimbursements for Manager Out-of-Pocket Expenses and Manager Operational Costs will be funded from our working capital, which will itself be derived from any proceeds raised in the Offering and Royalty Fees the Company earns for its ongoing service of the Royalty Shares. The Manager may, at its sole discretion, decide to defer or waive the reimbursement of any costs or expenses incurred on our behalf. All or any portion of any deferred costs or expenses may be deferred without interest and payable when the Manager determines.

 

32

Given its involvement in the offer and sale of Royalty Shares in connection with the Company’s Offering, the Manager is deemed to be a statutory underwriter solely for purposes of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. A statutory underwriter is subject to the prospectus delivery and liability provisions of the Securities Act, and Regulation M. The Manager is acting in its capacity as an associated person of the Company in relation to the Offering pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 3a4-1 and is not registered or required to be registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

Industry Expertise

We believe that our access to the Income Interests of Income Interest Holders described in this Offering Circular and contemplated in the Purchase Agreements, many of which relate to the original musical works of some of the world’s most well-known artists, creators and musicians, provides investors in each of the series of Royalty Shares with a unique investment opportunity. To provide investors with these opportunities in the first instance, we benefit from the expertise of our sponsor, Jukebox Holding, and its ability to identify and source, and to help us secure access to, Income Interests in a manner that individual investors are unlikely to be able to achieve on their own. Scott Cohen, the Chief Executive Officer of Jukebox Holding, has extensive experience working in the music industry, including serving as the manager of the band, Scrub; co-founding the record label, The Orchard, in 1997 with songwriter Richard Gottehrer, where he held the role of Founder until January 2019; and serving as the Chief Innovation Officer at Warner Music Group from February 2019 to October 2022. Mr. Cohen’s career, experience, and relationships in the music industry has provided and will likely continue to provide Jukebox Holding and its affiliates with opportunities to originate access to Income Interests from Income Interest Holders that, to the Company’s knowledge, have generally been unavailable to individual investors. In addition, the Manager’s executives, Sam Thacker and Wendell Younkins, have years of experience in business, including music and related industries, running the operations and finances of numerous companies. See “Management” section below. In addition to their roles with the Manager, Messrs. Thacker and Younkins continue to serve as executives at Jukebox Holding. We believe that our relationship with the Manager and its executives, as well as with Jukebox Holding and its executives, has provided and will continue to provide the Company with unique opportunities and access to Income Interests.

Jukebox Holding’s role as it relates to this Offering (as opposed to its activities in relation to the JKBX Platform or in identifying and sourcing any Income Interests which may be implicated in this Offering), as well as the role of the Manager, is limited to the provision of ministerial services as an associated person of the Company for purposes of Exchange Act Rule 3a4-1.

Employees

The Company does not currently have any employees, nor do we currently intend to hire any employees who will be compensated directly by the Company. The executive officers of the Manager manage our day-to-day affairs and oversee and service our assets pursuant to the terms of the Operating Agreement.

Legal Proceedings

Neither the Company nor the Manager is presently subject to any material legal proceedings.

Trust

The Company will convey, or cause to be conveyed, any Royalty Rights it receives pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and any Royalty Share Payments payable to Holders of Royalty Shares to a newly formed statutory trust established under Delaware state law (the “Trust”), which will hold the Royalty Rights. The Trust will be created to acquire and hold Royalty Rights and, when available, Royalty Share Payments, pending distribution to Holders of Royalty Shares, for the benefit of the Holders of Royalty Shares pursuant to a trust agreement (“Trust Agreement”) among the Company, in its separate and distinct capacities as grantor of the Trust and Management Trustee, and [     ], in its capacity as Administrative Trustee. For additional information, see “Description of the Trust Agreement.”

No Other Operations

Upon successful closing of this Offering, the Company will own Royalty Rights, serve as the sponsor and Management Trustee of the Trust, and administer and manage the Royalty Shares. The Company will not have any other operations.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

We were formed as a Delaware limited liability company on April 3, 2023 to facilitate and manage investors’ economic exposure to the Royalty Rights. The Company will facilitate and manage investor interests in the Royalty Rights by issuing Royalty Shares, to investors in this Offering.

The Royalty Shares represent the contractual right to receive a specified portion of any Income Interests we receive that relate to Royalty Rights for the specific Music Assets set forth in the “Royalty Shares Offering Table” beginning on page 65. The Company will enter into one or more Purchase Agreements with Income Interest Owners related to Music Assets. Royalty Shares will be issued in series, with each series corresponding to a portion of the Royalty Rights derived from Income Interests associated with specified Music Assets. Investors who acquire Royalty Shares from the Company will be entitled to receive Royalty Share Payments, calculated based on the number of Royalty Shares of a particular series that an investor holds compared to the total outstanding number of Royalty Shares of such series. Purchasing Royalty Shares does not confer to the investor any ownership in the Company or the underlying music portfolio containing the Music Assets.

Prior to the date of this Offering Circular, we have not conducted any operations and do not intend to conduct any business activities except for activities relating to facilitating investor economic exposure to, investment in, and maintenance of rights associated with the Royalty Shares.

We have not yet commenced our planned principal business operations and have no (or nominal) assets or liabilities at this time, and do not plan for or expect this Offering to be qualified before the Company is capitalized on other than a nominal basis. Accordingly, we have not presented financial statements in this Offering Circular, though we have described below certain critical accounting policies that we intend to adopt. We plan to engage an independent auditor to audit our financial statements after the qualification of this Offering by the SEC. Following qualification of this Offering, we will include audited financial statements in our annual reports with the SEC on Form 1-K and, where appropriate, in any post-qualification amendments to the offering statement of which this Offering Circular is a part, containing required financial statements, presented in accordance with GAAP, including a balance sheet and statements of operations, company equity and cash flows, with such statements having been audited by an accountant selected by the Company.

The Company is managed by its sole member, Double Platinum Management LLC, also referred to herein as the Manager. The Manager is a single-member Delaware limited liability company, wholly owned by Jukebox Holding. Subject to the limitations in our Operating Agreement, the Manager has the authority to make all the decisions regarding our facilitation and management of investors’ economic exposure to our Royalty Rights, and will assist the Company in providing asset management, marketing, investor relations and other administrative services on our behalf. We are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments, or events that will materially affect our operations or the liquidity or capital resources of the Manager.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles will be based on the selection and application of accounting policies that require us to make significant estimates and assumptions about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below will be critical to the understanding of our financial statements, when required to be filed. Actual results could differ from our estimates and assumptions, and any such differences could be material to our financial statements.

Investment in Purchase Agreements

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, the Company shall have the exclusive worldwide right in perpetuity to use, exploit, or otherwise dispose of certain applicable Royalty Rights in all methods, manner and media, now known or hereafter developed. The Company shall also irrevocably and perpetually purchase from Income Interest Owners a percentage of Income Interest Owners’ Income Interest payable or becoming payable in respect of the applicable Music Assets (i.e., the Royalty Rights). Such Income Interest includes the Income Interest Owner’s worldwide right, title, interest, and control in and to the applicable Royalty Rights, but does not include any copyrights or administration and/or distribution rights in and to the applicable Music Assets.

 

34

Upon the effectiveness of the Purchase Agreement (or such other date as mutually agreed to by the relevant parties), the Company shall have (a) the unrestricted right to collect, receive, and retain one hundred percent (100%) of the income associated with the Royalty Rights purchased of each applicable Music Asset under such Purchase Agreement which would be payable to the selling Income Interest Owner previous to the effectiveness of such Purchase Agreement, regardless of when earned, and the right to exercise or cause the selling Income Interest Owner to exercise all audit rights of the Income Interest Owner pursuant to any publishing, administration, distribution, recording, PRO (Performing Rights Organizations) agreements, or any agreements relating to the exploitation or use of the applicable Music Asset; (b) the right to all income associated with the Royalty Rights held in third party accounts that would otherwise be payable to the Income Interest Owner previous to the effectiveness of such Purchase Agreement, on or after such each effective date due to unidentified payees, royalties on legal hold, and other accounts directly relating to the applicable Music Assets, and (c) the right to all of the selling Income Interest Owner’s rights under warranties, indemnities, and all similar rights against third parties to the extent related to any of the applicable Royalty Rights.

Use of Estimates

In preparing our financial statements pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Manager will be required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts, particularly with respect to investments, at the date of the financial statements. Actual amounts may differ materially from these estimates.

Contingencies

We may be subject to lawsuits, investigations and claims (some of which may involve substantial dollar amounts) that can arise out of our normal business operations. We would continually assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to our contingencies, as well as potential amounts or ranges of probable losses, and recognize a liability, if any, for these contingencies based on a thorough analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts. Because most contingencies are resolved over long periods of time, liabilities may change in the future due to new developments (including new discovery of facts, changes in legislation and outcomes of similar cases through the judicial system), changes in assumptions or changes in our settlement strategy.

Income Taxes

The Royalty Share arrangement is intended to represent an undivided beneficial interest in a Royalty Right derived from a specified Music Asset and taxed as an investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and not as a partnership, an association, or a publicly traded partnership subject to tax as a corporation. See “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We are dependent upon the net proceeds raised in this ongoing Offering and any Royalty Fees the Company is paid for its ongoing administrative services related to each series of Royalty Shares to fund our proposed ongoing operations. We will obtain the capital required to complete the purchase of Royalty Rights related to the issuance of Royalty Shares and provide ongoing administrative services related thereto from the proceeds of the ongoing Offering. We will further fund our ongoing operations from any Royalty Fees we deduct from gross Income Interest proceeds before Royalty Share Payments are made to the Holders of the corresponding series of Royalty Shares. For information regarding the anticipated use of proceeds from this offering, see “Estimated Use of Proceeds” and, for Royalty Fees, see “Description of Royalty Shares.”

Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Manager will pay, on behalf of the Company, all ordinary and necessary costs in connection with our organization and the offering of Royalty Shares qualified in this Offering (“O&O Costs”), including costs associated with the marketing and distribution of Royalty Shares, expenses for printing, EDGARizing and amending offering statements or supplementing offering circulars, mailing and distributing costs, telephones, internet and other telecommunications costs, all advertising and marketing expenses, charges of experts and fees, expenses and taxes related to the filing, registration and qualification of the sale of Royalty Shares under state securities laws, including taxes and fees and accountants’ and attorneys’ fees. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, we also reimburse the Manager at cost for its overhead, employee costs, utilities or technology costs (“Manager Operational Costs”), as well as for any out-of-pocket expenses paid to third parties in connection with providing services to us, including expenses incurred by Jukebox Holding in the performance of services to the Manager under the Administrative Services Agreement between Jukebox Holding and the Manager (“Manager Out-of-Pocket Expenses”).

We will reimburse the Manager for all O&O Costs up to a maximum of 0.50% of the aggregate gross offering proceeds from this Offering. We anticipate that reimbursement payments for O&O Costs will be made to the Manager monthly installments.

Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Manager may invoice us at cost for any Manager Operational Costs and Manager Out-of-Pocket Expenses attributable to services provided to the Company. Reimbursements for Manager Out-of-Pocket Expenses and Manager Operational Costs will be funded from our working capital, which will itself be derived from any proceeds raised in the Offering and Royalty Fees the Company earns for its ongoing service of the Royalty Shares. The Manager may, at its sole discretion, decide to defer or waive the reimbursement of any costs or expenses incurred on our behalf. All or any portion of any deferred costs or expenses may be deferred without interest and payable when the Manager determines.

The Manager may, from time to time, incur costs outside the scope of its management of the Company pursuant to the Operating Agreement. The Manager uses its discretion only to attribute costs to the Company that are specific to the O&O Costs, Manager Out-of-Pocket Expenses, and Manager Operational Costs.

Jukebox Holding, our sponsor and parent of the Manager, has adopted a periodic dividend distribution policy pursuant to which it has the discretion to cause periodic distributions of excess working capital at the subsidiary level, including distributions by the Company to be made to the Manager, based on a comprehensive analysis of the subsidiary’s financial statements, profit projections, and regulatory requirements (“Corporate Distribution Policy”). Pursuant to the Corporate Distribution Policy, which may be amended from time to time, subsidiaries shall calculate any amounts available for dividend distribution by considering metrics including, but not limited to, the subsidiaries retained earnings, financial performance, future growth prospects, and cash flow requirements for operational and investment activities and, using this information, to determine in good faith whether a dividend distribution can made.

Other than the reimbursements for O&O Costs, Manager Out-of-Pocket Expenses and Manager Operational Costs and periodic distributions of capital under the Distributions Policy, we do not anticipate any other material capital commitments.

We do not anticipate that we will routinely maintain material liquid assets in excess of our capital commitments. Where, however, our Manager exercises its discretion to waive fees otherwise reimbursable to it pursuant to the Operating Agreement or does not exercise its discretion to distribute our excess working capital pursuant to the Corporate Distribution Policy, we may have working capital significantly in excess of our capital commitments.

If, however, we are unable to raise substantial gross offering proceeds, we will issue fewer Royalty Shares in the Offering and make fewer purchases of Royalty Rights. Given anticipated ongoing costs associated with servicing the series of Royalty Shares on an ongoing basis, we believe that issuing fewer Royalty Shares may result in higher fixed operating expenses as a proportion of our gross income. If, after purchasing the Royalty Rights and reimbursing the Manager for its O&O Costs, we do not have sufficient working capital to fund our ongoing operations, we anticipate being able to seek additional capital from the Manager and/or Jukebox Holding or that the Manager may use its discretion to waive or delay any fees reimbursable to it until such time as we may have sufficient capital to fund our operations and, if applicable, any required reimbursements. There is no guarantee that any request for additional capital from the Manager and/or Jukebox Holding will be agreed to by either party.

For information regarding the anticipated use of proceeds from this offering and compensation to be paid to the Manager, see “Estimated Use of Proceeds” and “Management Compensation,” respectively.

Plan of Operations

The Company plans to fund its proposed ongoing operation from the net proceeds raised in this ongoing Offering and any Royalty Fees we deduct from gross Income Interest proceeds before Royalty Share Payments are made to the Holders of the corresponding series of Royalty Shares. Further, depending on the amount of capital raised in this Offering and our ability to raise additional capital pursuant to Rule 251(a) of Regulation A, the Company may enter into additional Purchase Agreements and Purchase Agreement Schedules in the next twelve months to fund and secure additional Royalty Rights and issue additional Royalty Shares (including through post-qualification amendments to this Offering Statement), while retaining net offering proceeds in excess of offering-related costs and earning attendant ongoing Royalty Fees sufficient to fund our ongoing operating expenses. In order to fund the acquisition of such Royalty Rights and any expected costs and expenses, the Company intends to raise capital through the issuance and sale of additional Royalty Shares related to such additional Royalty Rights in a manner that is generally consistent with the terms of this Offering.

As the Company is newly formed and has yet to commence operations, it is difficult to precisely forecast the Company’s expected operational costs for the initial twelve months following commencement of the Offering. Given that the Company has no employees and minimal overhead costs of its own, as backstopped by the services of the Manager provided to the Company pursuant to the Operating Agreement, we believe that we will receive sufficient funding from a combination of net offering proceeds and from Royalty Fees to satisfy any cash requirements for the twelve month period following commencement of the Offering to implement our business plans.

If our assumptions regarding our plan of operations prove to be incorrect and we need additional capital resources to fund operations, we anticipate being able to seek additional capital from the Manager and/or Jukebox Holding or that the Manager use its discretion to waive or delay any fees reimbursable to it or distributions of working capital until such time as we may have sufficient capital to fund our operations. There is no guarantee that any request for additional capital from the Manager and/or Jukebox Holding will be agreed to by either party.

Trend Information

We are not aware of any trends, uncertainties, demands, commitments, or events that will materially affect our operations, liquidity, or capital resources.

Revenue Recognition

The Company does not charge fees or commissions for or recognize revenue in relation to the Offering of Royalty Shares. Royalty Fee revenue for ongoing administrative services related to the Royalty Shares will be recognized over time as such fees are deducted from the gross royalties received in respect of the Royalty Rights. Revenue will be recorded at the amounts the Company expects to receive.

43

DESCRIPTION OF THE ROYALTY SHARES

General

The Company was established to facilitate and manage investors’ economic exposure to the Company’s contractual right to receive a portion of the Income Interests related to or derived from Music Assets from certain Purchase Agreements. To achieve this, the Company is offering to sell to investors each of the series of Royalty Shares set forth in the “Royalty Shares Offering Table” on page 65. The Company has acquired the option to purchase Income Interests related to certain Music Assets by entering into Purchase Agreements with the underlying Income Interest Owners. The Purchase Agreements are structured as a purchase option agreement, which gives us the right, but not the obligation, to purchase a specific Income Interest subject to the Purchase Agreement using the proceeds of the Offering. The Company will purchase Income Interests pursuant to each applicable Purchase Agreement in the form of Royalty Rights on an ongoing, continuous basis upon qualification of the Offering, as proceeds from the Offering are received by the Company from investors through the sale of each series of Royalty Shares that corresponds to such Royalty Rights. The Royalty Shares provide investors with the contractual right to receive Royalty Share Payments.

Each Purchase Agreement provides the Company with the option to purchase any one or more of the Income Interests provided for in the Purchase Agreement Schedules. There is no minimum amount of Income Interests that must be purchased either as a proportion of all such Income Interests that have been made available pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or as it relates to other Income Interests for which the Company has an option to purchase in the Purchase Agreement. Independent of the terms of any specific Purchase Agreement(s), the Company will use its discretion in creating each series of Royalty Shares and the Income Interests associated therewith. In so doing, the Company may elect to issue series of Royalty Shares in this Offering that reflect economic exposure to Income Interests related to a single Music Asset (i.e., a song) or a compilation of Music Assets (i.e., an album). Each series of Royalty Shares and information about the Income Interests and related Music Asset(s) which comprise the series are described in the “Royalty Shares Offering Table” beginning on page 65 and the “Composition and Recording Rights” table beginning on page 48.

Royalty Share Agreement

Each prospective investor must execute and delivery to the Company a copy of the Royalty Share Agreement, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1. Pursuant to the Royalty Share Agreement, the Company shall promise to pay to each Holder the Royalty Share Payments to which each Holder is entitled, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Royalty Share Agreement and described in “Distribution Policy.”

Description of Limited Rights

The Royalty Shares do not represent a traditional investment and should not be viewed as similar to “shares” of a corporation operating a business enterprise with management and a board of directors. A Holder will not have the statutory rights normally associated with the ownership of shares of a corporation or membership interests in a limited liability company. The Royalty Shares do not entitle their Holders to any conversion or pre-emptive rights or, except as discussed below, any redemption rights or rights to distributions. In addition, the Royalty Shares do not entitle Holders to any copyrights or administration and/or distribution rights in and to the applicable Music Assets, or any other related intellectual property or physical goods (such as albums, album artwork and other merchandise).

Voting and Approvals

The Royalty Shares do not have any voting rights, and do not represent any ownership interest in the Company, or the corpus of the Trust. The purchase of Royalty Shares is an investment only related to the monies flowing from that particular Royalty Right of the Company and does not create any rights to payments from any other Royalty Rights of the Company.

Electronic Issuance

All Royalty Shares will be issued in electronic form only and maintained through the JKBX Platform.

Minimum Purchase Threshold

The minimum purchase threshold for participation in this Offering per investor per series is one (1) Royalty Share.

Expected Rate of Return

There is no expected or projected rate of return for the Royalty Shares because of the variable nature of the underlying Income Interests.

 

44

Distributions

As stated above, the Royalty Shares provide investors with Royalty Share Payments.

All monies associated with Income Interests received by us pursuant to the Purchase Agreements will be held in a designated bank account and generally distributed once per calendar quarter to the JKBX Platform accounts of the Holders of the corresponding Royalty Shares as further described below, subject to the terms of the applicable Royalty Share Agreement. In addition, the terms of service of the JKBX Platform, which is included as Exhibit 6.4 to the offering statement, may include restrictions on a Holder’s ability to withdraw amounts in their JKBX Platform account to other financial institutions, including, but not limited to, a minimum withdrawal threshold.

The Royalty Share Agreements shall provide that, during each full calendar quarter that begins following the six-month anniversary of the original issue date of a series of Royalty Shares, the Company shall declare with respect to such series (a) the amount of distributions payable per Royalty Share of such series on the next designated payment date and (b) a record date and payment date for such distributions. Each designated payment date shall be no later than ninety (90) calendar days after the end of the calendar quarter in which such payment date is declared by the Company. On each payment date, the amount of distributions payable per Royalty Share of the applicable series shall be paid to the person in whose name each Royalty Share is registered at the close of business on the applicable record date designated by the Company.

Pursuant to the applicable Royalty Share Agreement, the Company shall receive a fee equal to 1.0% of the gross monies associated with Income Interests received by us in respect of the Royalty Rights (the “Royalty Fee”). The Royalty Fee shall be deducted from the gross monies associated with Income Interests received by us and retained by the Company before Royalty Share Payments are made to the Holders of the corresponding series of Royalty Shares. This fee shall only be collected by the Company on the gross income associated with Income Interests actually received by us. If there are no gross monies associated with Income Interests received by us during a period, the Company will not collect this fee for such period (i.e., no such fee shall be charged to any Royalty Shares).

In some instances, Income Interest payments made in respect of the Royalty Rights may be made more or less frequently than quarterly. If multiple Income Interest payments are made in a single quarter, we will accrue those Income Interest payments and make one single Royalty Share Payment to Holders of the applicable series of Royalty Shares following the end of the calendar quarter in which we received those Income Interest payments. Conversely, if Income Interest payments are made less frequently than quarterly (for example, bi-annually), then there will be no Royalty Share Payments made until a distribution is declared following the end of the calendar quarter in which the Income Interest payment is received.

Prior to the distribution of Royalty Share Payments to the applicable Holders in accordance with the process described above, the Company shall manage any monies associated with Income Interests received by investing them in cash, cash equivalents and other high credit quality, short-term investments in accordance with our investment policy designed to protect the principal investment. Our investment policy is to manage investments to achieve the financial objectives of preservation of principal, liquidity and return on investment. A portion of the investment portfolio shall be held in cash and cash equivalents. Investments may also be made in U.S. bank securities and bank deposits, U.S. government securities and commercial paper of U.S. bank or industrial companies, and highly rated and well-diversified money market funds. Any interest and other investment income generated by these investing activities shall be retained by the Company and shall not be distributed to Holders. Distributions to Holders pursuant to the Royalty Share Agreements shall be limited, in all circumstances, to an amount equal to the net monies associated with Income Interests received by us after deduction of the Royalty Fee. While the Company’s investment policy is to manage investments to preserve principal, there is always a risk that principal may be lost in any investment made by the Company and, if so, the Company may lack the funds necessary to make some or all of the distributions of the Royalty Share Payments as required by the Royalty Share Agreements.

The above discussion regarding the royalty Shares and Royalty Share agreements is qualified in its entirety by the form of Royalty Share Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 3.1 to the offering statement of which this Offering Circular forms an integral part.

Term of the Royalty Shares

The term of each series of Royalty Shares will be consistent with the term of the corresponding Royalty Rights of the underlying Purchase Agreements. Terms can be as long as the life of copyright. For more information on specific Royalty Shares, see “Description of the Music Assets Underlying the Royalty Shares.”

No Security Interest

The Royalty Shares will be unsecured obligations of the Company. In the event the Company fails or defaults, investors may not be able to recover Income Interests directly from the Income Interest Owner.

In the event of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding of the Company, the relative rights of the Holder of the Royalty Shares as compared to the Holders unsecured indebtedness of the Company are uncertain. If we were to become subject to a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, the holder of the Royalty Shares will have an unsecured claim against us that may or may not be limited in recovery to the corresponding Purchase Agreement.

Transfer Restrictions

The Royalty Shares may only be transferred by operation of law or on a trading platform approved by the Company, such as the ATS, or with the prior written consent of the Company.

Exclusive Jurisdiction

Any action arising out of the Subscription Agreement or the Royalty Share Agreement is subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the State of New York, except where federal law requires that certain claims be brought in the federal courts of the United States. In particular, the foregoing shall not apply to claims arising under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, Section 27 of the Exchange Act would likely require suits to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act to be brought in federal court. Investors will not be deemed to have waived the Company’s compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. See also “Risk Factors—Our Subscription Agreement and Royalty Share Agreement each provide for non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the courts of the State of New York but requires you to acknowledge that this provision shall not apply to claims arising under the Securities Act and Exchange Act[]” above.

 

45

Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury and Mandatory Arbitration

Our Royalty Share Agreement and Subscription Agreement provide that each investor waives the right to a jury trial for any claim they may have against us arising out of, or relating to, the respective agreements and any transaction arising under such agreement, which could include claims under federal securities laws. By subscribing to this Offering, the investor warrants that the investor has reviewed this waiver, and knowingly and voluntarily waives his or her jury trial rights. If we 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.

DESCRIPTION OF THE MUSIC ASSETS UNDERLYING THE ROYALTY SHARES

Sources of Royalties

In the music industry, third-party entities are often involved in exploiting songs and collecting royalties for artists, writers, and other rights holders. With respect to the underlying musical composition of a song (a “Composition”), songwriters may enter into a transaction with a publisher or administrator to exploit the Composition and collect their royalties. Typically, publishers and administrators are tasked with exploiting and/or licensing songs across a variety of platforms, partners, and uses and protecting rights over the underlying Composition, as appropriate. The rights associated with a Composition generally accrue royalties from various income interest sources, including:

 

•

Mechanical royalties: These royalties are paid to songwriters, publishers, and administrators for the reproduction and distribution of a Composition and are generated from physical and digital sales and streaming of the Composition. These royalties are collected from labels, mechanical rights organizations, such as the Harry Fox Agency and the Mechanical Licensing Collective, or directly from streaming and download platforms.

 

•

Public performance royalties: These royalties are earned when a Composition is performed publicly or broadcasted, including on radio or TV, in live performances, and on certain streaming platforms. These royalties are collected by performance rights organizations (such as Broadcast Music, Inc. (BMI), the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP), the Society of European Stage Authors and Composers (SESAC), and Global Music Rights (GMR)) and are paid to songwriters, publishers, and administrators.

 

•

Synchronization fees: These negotiated fees are earned when a Composition is synchronized with visual media, such as movies, TV shows, commercials, and video games, and rights holders are paid for the use of their music in these visual productions.

 

•

Other: In addition to the categories described above, other royalties, fees and income may be generated in connection with the use of a Composition, including income generated by print, karaoke, or social media.

 

•

Remix: Some Compositions include rights associated with related remixed versions of such Composition. The rights associated with remixes generally accrue royalties from the various income interest sources described above in this list.

With respect to a recording of a musical composition (a “Recording”), recording artists may enter into a transaction with a record label, label services company, or distributor to exploit and collect their royalties. Typically, these third parties are tasked with exploiting and/or licensing songs across a variety of platforms, partners, and uses. The rights associated with a Recording generally accrue royalties from various income interest sources, including:

 

•

Sales: These royalties are generally paid to record labels from the sale of records in all formats (physical, downloads, and streams).

 

•

Synchronization fees: These negotiated fees are earned when a Recording is synchronized with visual media, such as movies, TV shows, commercials, and video games and rights holders are paid for the use of their music in these visual productions.

 

•

Neighboring rights and digital performance royalties: These royalties are generated by terrestrial radio, television, and venue exploitations outside of the United States or by exploitations on digital and satellite radio in the United States, such as Pandora, Sirius, and iHeartRadio when they collect similar “digital performance royalties.” These royalties are public performance royalties paid to the owner of the Recording of the song performed and/or the performer of the Recording.

 

•

Other: In addition to the categories described above, other royalties, fees and income may be generated in connection with the use of a Recording, including income generated by social media.

 

•

Remix: Some Recordings include rights associated with related remixed versions of such Recording. The rights associated with remixes generally accrue royalties from the various income interest sources described above in this list.

 

•

Royalty Participants: Some Recordings include royalties that are paid to parties other than a record label, including producers, artists, engineers, and other key stakeholders. These royalties accrue from the various income interest sources described above in this list.
