The Operator may deduct from this amount the relevant fees and costs immediately before its transfer to the relevant bank account of the Project Owner.
  4. If, by the end of the Financing Period, clients do not accept the Offer at least in the amount of the Loan Amount of the relevant Project, the Project Owner has the right to reduce the Amount of the loan or the right to extend the original Financing Period in accordance with Article 4.5, until the end of the Project Financing Period, while the relevant extension does not affect the validity of the Acceptances of the Offer submitted before such extension.
  5. At the moment when the Acceptance of the Offer reaching the Loan Amounts for which the cooling-off period has already expired is submitted on the Platform, a Loan Agreement is concluded between the Project Owner and the Client.
  6. In the event that by the end of the Financing Period of the relevant Project, or by the end of the Financing Period extended in accordance with Article 4.5 point. b) no Acceptance of the Offer reaching at least the Loan Amount is submitted, the Operator shall return the funds transferred to the special account in full back to the Investown wallet of the relevant Client, unless otherwise agreed.

Unless otherwise specified, the performance obtained from the Collateral shall be due to the Clients in proportion to the amount of financing they have provided to the relevant Project Owner under the Loan Agreement.

The Agent for Detention carries out its activities with professional care, in particular it acts competently, honestly and fairly and in the best interests of the Clients.

However, the Receivables of clients from deposits on an account in a special regime are insured in accordance with § 41a et seq. of the ZoB.

‍


7. Assignment of claims by means of an electronic notice board
‍

The Operator may offer within the Platform a function allowing to advertise interest in the sale and purchase of Receivables and to assign Receivables between Clients through the conclusion of a Contract on the Assignment of Receivables. Assignment of the Receivable to a person other than the Client outside the Platform is prohibited.

The Operator is entitled, at its own discretion, to stop or stop offering the function enabling the assignment of Receivables at any time. The Operator may also selectively limit the use of the Receivables assignment function only to selected Clients at its discretion.


7.1. The process of assigning receivables

The minimum price of the Claim, which can be assigned, is CZK 500. If the total amount of the Claim for assignment does not reach CZK 500, such Receivable may also be assigned, but only if it is assigned in its entirety.

The process of assigning a Receivable on the Platform takes place as follows:  

  1. On the Platform, the Client selects a specific Claim (or part thereof) to be assigned and, if applicable, also indicates the price at which the Claim (or its part) is to be assigned. In relation to the selected Receivable, the Client creates an Offer of Assignment of Receivable through the relevant function on the Platform and publishes it on the Electronic Notice Board, thereby enabling other Clients to see the published Offers of Assignment of Receivable and accept these offers. Publication of the Offer of Assignment of Receivables is considered a binding expression of the Client's will to conclude the Contract on the Assignment of Receivables and to be bound by its offer in the event of its acceptance by another Client. By publishing the Offer of Assignment of Receivables, the Client always agrees that another Client may accept this Offer of Assignment of Receivables even in part, i.e. only in respect of a certain Part of the Claim, if this part corresponds to at least CZK 500.
    ‍
  2. Together with the publication of the Offer for assignment of receivables, the KIIS of the relevant Project to which the assigned Receivable relates must also be published. The offer of assignment of receivables shall contain at least the following:
    ‍
    I. the amount of the Assigned Claim;
    II. the price of the assigned Receivable.
    ‍
  3. The offer of assignment of receivables is effective on the Platform for the period specified on the Platform, during which the offer can be accepted. In the event that none of the Clients accepts the offer during this period, the relevant offer will be automatically deactivated and no further acceptances in relation to the offer can be made. This is without prejudice to the Client's right to republish the Offer of Assignment of Receivables. The offer of assignment of receivables is also automatically deactivated if, after its publication on the Platform, any payments (e.g. interest payments or principal payments) are made to the client offering on the basis of the underlying Credit Agreement. The offer of assignment of receivables may also be cancelled by the offer through the Client's Account until the conclusion of the Contract on the Assignment of Receivables.
  4. The Contract on the Assignment of Receivables shall be concluded with the first Client who accepts the Offer of Assignment of Receivables in accordance with these Terms and Conditions and within the period specified in point (a). c). The successful Client is informed about the conclusion of the Contract on the Assignment of Receivables through his Client Account. In the event that the Client accepts the Offer of Assignment of a Receivable only in respect of a Part of the Claim, the Contract on the Assignment of a Receivable is concluded to the extent of a Part of the Claim, with the fact that the price for the assignment of a Part of the Claim corresponds to a proportional part of the price according to the Offer of Assignment of the Receivable (i.e. if the Client accepts a Part of the Claim in the amount of 50% of the Claim, the price for the assignment of this Part of the Claim corresponds to 50% of the price for the assignment of the entire Claim). Once the Offer of Assignment of Receivable to the full extent of the Claim has been accepted, the Offer of Assignment of Receivable will be automatically deactivated and no further acceptances in relation to this Offer may be made.  Before accepting the Offer of Assignment of Receivables, the Operator shall send the relevant Client information about the risks associated with investing on the Platform. By accepting the Offer of Assignment of Receivables, the Client expressly confirms that he has received a warning about the risks, has understood the risks of which he has been warned by the Operator and that these risks are acceptable to him.
    ‍

The Client may accept the Offer of Assignment of Receivables only if he has funds available in his Investown wallet at least in the amount in which the price of the assigned Receivable or Part of the Receivable is determined. After the conclusion of the Contract on Assignment of Receivables, the Operator deducts from the Investown wallet of the Client who is the assignor and credits to the Investown wallet of the Client who is the assignee an amount equal to the price of the assigned Receivable or Part of the Receivable. After the assignment of the Receivable or Part of the Receivable, the Operator has the right to deduct the relevant Client the service fee specified in the Price List.

By concluding the Contract on the Assignment of Receivables, the Client enters into the rights and obligations under the Loan Agreement, which is the legal basis for the creation of the assigned Receivable, while the rights and obligations of the respective Project Owner remain unaffected.

Acceptance of the Offer of Assignment of Receivables may be revoked only in accordance with applicable law. The provisions of § 1885 para. 1 OZ shall not apply in the event of assignment of the Claim on the Platform.

‍

7.2. Rights of the Operator

The operator reserves the right at its own discretion:  

  1. not to allow Clients to assign receivables;
  2. determine the price range within which the price of the assigned Claim may be determined:
  3. limit or set a minimum part of the Claim that can be transferred through the Platform (e.g. as a percentage and/or a fixed amount).

Restrictions and their changes set by the Operator in accordance with the previous paragraph will be published on the Platform.

‍
‍

8. Non-performance of contractual arrangements and acts of the Operator

If the Project Owner fails to comply properly and in a timely manner with the obligations arising from the Credit Agreement, these Terms and Conditions or other contractual arrangements referred to in these Terms, the Operator (or a third party authorized by the Project Owner) may, at the expense of the Project Owner, perform on behalf of the Clients or on its own behalf any action or action that the Operator deems necessary or desirable in its sole discretion to achieve the fulfillment of the relevant obligation.
