CERTIFICATE FOR EXECUTION BY SELF CERTIFIED SOPHISTICATED INVESTOR

I declare that I am a self-certified sophisticated investor for the purposes of the Financial Services and Markets Act (Financial Promotion) Order 2005.

I understand that this means:

    authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority;
  • b) the content of such financial promotions may not conform to rules issued by the
    Financial Conduct Authority;
  • c) by signing this statement I may lose significant rights;
  • d) I may have no right to complain to either of the following.
  • the Financial Conduct Authority; or

  • ii. the Financial Ombudsman Scheme; and
  • e) I may have no right to seek compensation from the Financial Services
    Compensation Scheme.
  • I am a self-certified sophisticated investor because at least one of the following
    applies:

  • a) I am a member of a network or syndicate of business angels and have been so
    for at least the last six months prior to the date below;
  • b) I have made more than one investment in an unlisted company in the two years
    prior to the date below;
  • c) I am working, or have worked in the two years prior to the date below, in a
    professional capacity in the private equity sector, or in the provision of finance for
    small and medium enterprises;
  • d) I am currently, or have been in the two years prior to the date below, a director of
    a company with an annual turnover of at least £1 million.
  • I accept that I can lose my property and other assets from making investment
    decisions based on financial promotions.
    I am aware that it is open to me to seek advice from someone who specialises in
    advising on investments.

    I agree that Solidus Technologies, their compliance officer or their Registrar may need to make further inquiries as they deem appropriate under the circumstances.
