Users (“you”) understand and agree that to the extent that Varia and/or its affiliates have been engaged by you to assist with your capital raising activities, Varia and its affiliates are acting as consultants, pursuant to which they charge either hourly fees or flat fees for consulting services provided to you to help you prepare for your capital raise, including the time and expense of introducing you to Varia’s network of strategic and financial investors (including webisodes). However, Varia does not guarantee success, such consulting fees are payable to Varia whether or not the capital raise is successful, it is not acting as a broker or dealer, and will not perform services or receive success fees which would require it to become licensed as a broker or dealer.
