Forward-Looking Statements
This website may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements involve discussions related to Yield Capital’s expectations concerning business performance, liquidity, capitals resources, and other non-historical matters. Forward-looking statements on this website are based on our beliefs and assumptions made by Yield Capitals with information currently available. Words like “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” or future-oriented verbs such as “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may,” and variations of these words or similar expressions aim to identify forward-looking statements. Although Yield Capitals believes the assumptions and expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, there is no assurance that these expectations will prove correct, and actual results may differ. These statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including dependence on key personnel, raising new private equity, credit or real asset funds, market conditions, managing growth, fund performance, changes in regulatory environment and tax status, revenue variability, use of leverage, and litigation, regulatory, and compliance risks, among others. These factors should not be seen as exhaustive, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statements, whether due to new information, future developments, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration
Carefully review the following section, as it mandates arbitration for certain disputes and claims involving Yield Capitals and the Website, restricting how you can seek resolution from us unless you choose to opt out of arbitration as per the provided instructions. This arbitration agreement prohibits class or representative actions or arbitrations and also prevents you from pursuing a court lawsuit or a trial by jury.
No Representative Actions. Both you and Yield Capitals acknowledge that any dispute arising from or related to these Terms or our Website is personal in nature. As such, any dispute will be exclusively resolved through individual action and will not be pursued as a class arbitration, class action, or any other representative proceeding.
Arbitration of Disputes. Except for small claims disputes eligible for individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes involving the seeking of injunctive or other equitable relief for alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, both you and Yield Capitals relinquish the right to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising from or related to these Terms or our Website adjudicated in court. Instead, you agree to attempt an informal resolution by contacting Yield Capitals first and sending a written Notice of your claim to Yield Capitals via email at contact@yieldcapitalcorporation.com or by certified mail to Yield Capitals, LLC; Location Atlanta Georgia America, Poland. The Notice should include your name, residence address, email address, telephone number, describe the nature and basis of the claim, and specify the relief sought. Yield Capitals will provide a similar Notice if we need to address a dispute with you. If an agreement cannot be reached within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS, or in court under limited circumstances mentioned above. JAMS will conduct confidential, binding arbitration with one arbitrator, either in Poland, or via telephonic or video conference for disputes alleging damages less than $10,000, following the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures available on the JAMS website.
You acknowledge and agree that these Terms impact interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), governs the enforceability of this Section 12. Subject to the FAA and JAMS Rules, the arbitrator holds exclusive authority for all procedural and substantive decisions in a dispute, including the power to decide arbitrability. The arbitrator may only conduct individual arbitration, not consolidate multiple individual claims, preside over any class or representative proceeding, or oversee any proceeding involving more than one individual.
You, Yield Capitals, and the arbitrator will maintain the confidentiality of arbitration proceedings, judgments, and awards, with the arbitrator having the power to make rulings to preserve confidentiality, unless law dictates otherwise. This confidentiality duty does not apply if disclosure is essential for arbitration hearing preparation or conduct, court application for a preliminary remedy, judicial challenge to an arbitration award, or as required by law or judicial decision.
For any arbitration initiated by you, you will pay the filing fee, and Yield Capitals will cover the remaining JAMS fees and costs. If initiated by Yield Capitals, we will cover all JAMS fees and costs. Both you and Yield Capitals agree that the state or federal courts of the State of New York and the United States sitting in New York County, New York, have exclusive jurisdiction over appeals and enforcement of an arbitration award.
Any claim arising from or related to these Terms or our Website must be filed within one year after the claim’s occurrence; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, precluding you and Yield Capitals from asserting it.
You have the option to decline binding arbitration within 30 days from the date of your initial acceptance of the terms in this Section 12 by sending an email to us at info@yieldcapitalcorporation.com. To be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address, clearly indicating your intention to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you agree to resolve disputes as outlined in Section 13.
If any part of this Section 12 is determined to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be separated from these Terms; (b) the separation of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall not impact the remainder of this Section 12 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration for any remaining claims individually under this Section 12; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Furthermore, if any part of this Section 12 is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought outside of arbitration, and the rest of this Section 12 will be enforceable.
Governing Law and Venue
Any dispute arising from these Terms and your use of the Website will be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of New York, except to the extent preempted by U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts of New York and the United States, respectively, sitting in New York County, New York.

Severability
If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms is unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
Miscellaneous

The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
