TO RECAP THE INFORMATION FOR THE ANNOUNCEMENT:
Why Regulation A is Better than Regulation D (SEC 504, SEC 506, CrowdFunding Title II or Title III)
• ALL INVESTORS CAN INVEST WITHOUT PROVIDING PROOF OF INCOME OR NET WORTH!! Investors in Regulation Ds (whether under Title II or Title III) have to go through an "accreditation" set of qualifications, which can include the submission of tax returns, bank statements, mortgage statements, property tax info, etc, all of which can lead to easily losing a potential investor. None of this applies to a Regulation A Offerings!
• Regulation D Securities are HIGHLY RESTRICTIVE and considered "illiquid", meaning they cannot be transferred, sold or traded for what is generally up to a year. Even after the restriction period expires, the investor prior to selling, trading or transferring the security must get the restrictive legends removed from the security, which requires additional legal expense generally absorbed by the investor, with absolutely no guarantee that the legends will be removed. This is NOT the case with Regulation A Offerings, as all shares are sold by the issuer to the investor with NO RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS, meaning the shares are immediately "liquid" and can be sold, traded or transferred by the investor.
• Regulation A Securities go through merit reviews at the Washington DC Office of the Securities & Exchange Commission, and currently also at the State Levels where shares are offered and/or sold (until the Regulation A reform laws go into effect). Due to this fact, and the two points mentioned previous in this section, Regulation A Offerings are excepted by institutional investors, asset managers and investment advisors on a much, much greater scale than Regulation D Offerings. Regulation A Offerings show a much greater level of sophistication on the part of the issuer than a Regulation D Offering. Many Regulation D Offering Companies will tell you that "the submission of the merit review to the SEC and to the States takes lots of time and money". Absolutely NOT TRUE! We can have a Regulation A generally deemed effective by the SEC within 45-60 days, but can publicly market and advertise the securities for sale and collect investment commitments during this review period (this is called "test the waters" period of a Regulation A Offering). When put side-to-side, Regulation A Offerings have a much higher completion percentage and will go from "start-to-finish" in a much faster period than a Regulation D Offering will.
• Regulation A Offerings are a much more transparent offering than a Regulation D Offering, which attracts more investors, both private and institutional! Because Regulation A Offerings require the Company to provide quarterly un-audited financial statements and year end audited financial statements, investors are more inclined to participate in a Regulation A Offering over a Regulation D Offering because of this advanced disclosure required of the issuer. Many Regulation D Offering Companies will tell you this is at a much greater cost to the Company and at a much greater time constraint. Nothing can be further from the truth! Un-audited Financials can be easily prepared and printed from the most basic software, including Quickbooks and most online banking sites! Audited Financials can be a bit more costly for a start-up company (but not to the tune that most will tell you, and if you have concerns about this point, we have audit professionals that we can refer you to for a price quote), but if you prepare your Financials correctly, the cost of the first couple of years audits can easily be absorbed into the Finance Needs of the Company.
• Greater Marketing and Advertising Power at essentially no cost! The landscape of the Regulation D Marketplace is HIGHLY OVERSATURATED with Offerings out trying to raise investor capital. Press releases about Regulation D offerings are clogging the AP Wires! Regulation A Offering Press Releases get a much, much greater pick-up rate than Regulation D Offerings simply due to the SEC Registration and the Transparency associated with a Regulation A Offering. Also, Regulation A Offering stories get a much higher placement in news publications, unlike the Regulation Ds (if even picked up by a news agency) that are essentially buried in the news publication.
Why Investors are Flocking to GlobalCrowdTV:
• One, we have a format that is open to ALL INVESTORS to invest in offerings at GlobalCrowdTV. Offerings at GlobalCrowdTV are not limited to a certain class of investors, whether you are a U.S. Citizen, a Non-U.S. Citizen, an Accredited Investor, Sophisticated Investor, Qualified Investor or Non-Accredited Investor, you can open an Investment Account at GlobalCrowdTV AND Invest in ALL Companies Listed at GlobalCrowdTV.
• Two, Fast Investment Account Opening for both Private and Institutional Investors. Investors simply complete an Online Form and "click submit" to open an investment account at GlobalCrowdTV. The information form takes a potential investor less than five minutes to open an investment account, and no opening deposits or fees are required! Unlike with Regulation D Offerings, no income or asset documentation is required to be collected from any investor at GlobalCrowdTV!
• Three, Investing online into an alternative investment opportunity has never been easier. Once you have opened an investment account at GlobalCrowdTV, simply choose a company to invest in, review the online investment prospectus and investment subscription agreement, and "click invest", simply choose the number of shares you wish to purchase from the drop-down menu and "click submit"! From there, within five minutes, you will receive an online subscription agreement with all of your information included, simply digitally sign online and "click submit".

GlobalCrowdTV investments require: No Printing, No Faxing, No Scanning, No Emailing, No Mailing of Checks and No Wiring of Funds!
• Four, GlobalCrowdTV's Business TV: GlobalCrowdTV comes equipped with a complete TV and Radio Production side of the Company. Companies offering securities for sale under Regulation A on GlobalCrowdTV have complete Offering Videos posted on their page and are continually joining the GlobalCrowdTV programming via Skype or Video Conference to update viewers and potential investors on the current state of the Company. Keeping with the old saying, "Investors do not read, and readers do not invest", GlobalCrowdTV employs a constant "news and update" feature about our companies that is broadcasted both live and through "On Demand Technology" via both visual media (TV and Internet) and audio media (radio).
• Five, GlobalCrowdTV's Clearing House! GlobalCrowdTV has the only secondary market for the sale, trade or transfer of a Regulation A Securities. Investors "who purchased" Regulation A Securities at GlobalCrowdTV can list their securities for sale to other investors registered with GlobalCrowdTV. An Investor looking to sell their Regulation A Securities can list the shares for sale at GlobalCrowdTV and GlobalCrowdTV will simply supply a notice to all registered investors with GlobalCrowdTV that a security has been listed for sale at GlobalCrowdTV. Sellers simply place an "Ask" (Sale) Notice on the Securities and Buyers can then "Bid" on buying the Securities. FOUNDERS SHARES ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR SALE AT GLOBALCROWDTV FOR A PERIOD NOT TO BE LESS THAN ONE YEAR!
• Six, GlobalCrowdTV Self-Directed IRAs! GlobalCrowdTV has one of the Industry's Only true "in-house Self-Directed IRA Programs" with "Checkbook writing ability" by the Investor. Most Companies that claim to have "Self-Directed IRA Programs for Alternative Investment Opportunities" have third party relationships with Self-Directed IRA Companies, generally with offices in other Cities or States. GlobalCrowdTV has true "in-house Self-Directed IRA Professionals", and our customer service agents or investment bankers can sit down 'face-to-face' with a Self-Directed IRA Specialist to make sure the best interests of the investor are addressed (not through email or conference calls).
• Seven, Simplistic Transparency! Companies listed at GlobalCrowdTV are required to submit Quarterly un-Audited Financials, Year End Audited Financial Statements, Monthly "State of the Company" Letters to the Investors and participate in quarterly investor conference calls. GlobalCrowdTV makes this easy for both the Issuer and the Investor by publishing all of this at the Company's page at GlobalCrowdTV, and GlobalCrowdTV's "Business TV Network" hosts the quarterly video conference call with investors right on the Company's page at GlobalCrowdTV. Through this interactive technology, Investors can participate via phone line or video conference, and speak directly to the Company's CEO during the Q&A portion of the conference call.
Benefits to our Issuers:
• One, Re-read all the points above!
• Two, You do not need to recruit Friends and Family to invest, nor do you need to go through our list of investors and cold call them or email solicitations to them. This concept works with sites like Gust.com and others, but we understand you have a business to run or get up and running. The Investment Bankers at GlobalCrowdTV do the marketing of your securities offering for you. Of course you can solicit for investments if you choose, but it is definitely not required. We simply ask you meet your media requirements with GlobalCrowdTV, and we will handle the rest.
• Three, unlike the other "CrowdFunding" and "Capital Raise" Websites, we already have THOUSANDS of relationships with Investors. We already have relationships at the CORPORATE levels of top advisory firms with more than 10,000 Investment Advisors. When our Regulation As are ready for solicitation, firms like these get the Offering some two weeks before the general public gets to see them. Because our relationships are at the Corporate Level, the Securities Offerings will be passed down to the RIAs from the Corporate level, not by our firm on an email campaign (we let the Reg D solicitors do the mass email campaigns with no results, since we are results orientated, we established our relationships at the corporate levels).
• Four, We have relationships with most Venture Capital groups all around the Globe. For all the reasons mentioned above, we have developed strong relationships with most Venture Capital Firms throughout North America and globally. Though this is not the cornerstone of our business model, we still obviously get potential investment information out to the VCs on all of our securities offerings. Due to the fact that VC Capital can generally take months to ever come in, we do not rely on this as a funding mechanism, but as an option for additional capital after the Regulation A Sales of Securities has begun. Because our issuers are soliciting with a Regulation A Securities Offering that have been registered with the SEC, we do get a much higher and faster response rate from VCs than a company soliciting with a Business Plan or a Regulation D (again, for all the reasons mentioned above).
Our Costs for ALL of our Regulation A Joint Ventures (by far the lowest Upfront Cost in the Country for a Regulation A Offering. Most Law Firms and Regulation A Offering Preparation Companies charge $10,000 USD and more. GlobalCrowdTV is a "true joint venture partner", not a wild fee income generator.):
