This electronic record is generated by a computer system and does not require any physical or digital signatures. This document is published in accordance with the provisions of Rule 3(1) of the Information Technology (Intermediaries Guidelines) Rules, 2011 that require publishing the rules and regulations, privacy policy and user agreement for access or usage of our website ‘www.agreegain.in’; (hereinafter referred to as the “Website”). The Website is an internet-based asset ownership portal owned and operated by Inversa AgreeGain LLP (hereinafter, referred to as “we”, “us”, “our” and “AgreeGain”). For the purpose of these User Terms (defined hereinafter), “you”, “your” or “User” refers to any natural or legal person (whether a registered user or otherwise) who accesses the Website, its contents and uses the services offered by AgreeGain on or through the Website.
AgreeGain is not a registered broker-dealer, investment advisor, lender, and/or money transfer service and does not conduct any activity that would require such registration or certification from any agency including SEBI. AgreeGain does not provide any kind of investment consultation or any such services. Please read the document carefully before you access or use the service. By accessing, registering at the site, and or using AgreeGain services you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth below. If you do not wish to be bound by these terms and conditions, please do not access or register for our site and/or engage in any activity conducted by AgreeGain. If you violate any of these terms of service (which include by reference AgreeGain’s privacy policy), or otherwise violate an agreement between you and us, AgreeGain may, apart from initiating any legal proceedings, terminate your privileges, delete your profile and any content or information that you have posted on the site and/or prohibit you from using or accessing the service or the site (or any portion, aspect or feature of the service or the site), at any time in its sole discretion, with or without notice. It is stated that ‘AgreeGain’ and ‘Project Entities’ or ‘Assets’ are separate legal entities. The Investors will become limited Partners to the said project entities or assets listed over AgreeGain. AgreeGain provides just a platform to invest/transfer amounts to these project entities for taking fractional ownership of these projects in the form of partnership shares. The Investors are requested to assess all the Risks & Consent Agreement, LLP Agreement and Non-Disclosure Agreement thoroughly before making the investment in the listed Opportunities.
AgreeGain is just a platform (read software/webapp) where different project entities, working in the agriculture domain, have listed their ownership fractions in the form of LLP Capital Contribution. The entities are registered as LLPs only, and no “Equities” are involved where SEBI’s regulation is required. For the purpose of collecting the amount, the project entities have prepared an Escrow Agreement with AgreeGain (Inversa AgreeGain LLP) and also have an MoU in place for the same. As an investor/user when you invest through AgreeGain, you will become a partner and lender to these LLPs (as selected by you) and represent your investment. Your partnership stake in the LLP will represent the amount of investment (Capital Contribution and Loan) made by you. AgreeGain and the designated partners of these LLPs would be responsible for management of these Project Entities on behalf of investors/users. AgreeGain charges a commission from these Project Entities for providing them the platform. The Escrow Agreement ensures that the user gets the partnership in the project entity when the amount gets transferred to a particular entity and also ensures the distribution of profits, repayment of loan and other payouts given by the Project Entities to the partners. The investor/user signs a consent letter for becoming a partner to the respective LLP/Project Entity, when transferring the amount and signing of the consent letter should be considered as becoming a partner in the LLP for which the required filings will be done with RoC.
