Terms of Use

1. Acceptance of terms

By accessing or using tic.exchange ("the platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use the platform. These terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and TICX Pty Ltd (ACN 611 857 875), the owner and operator of tic.exchange.

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the platform after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. We will endeavor to notify registered users of material changes by email.

2. Nature of the platform

tic.exchange is a listing and enquiry marketplace only. We are not a licensed real estate agent, broker, dealer, lender, financial advisor, investment advisor, or legal advisor. We do not conduct, facilitate, or participate in any property transaction.

All property transactions are conducted directly between buyers, sellers, and their respective licensed real estate agents, entirely outside of this platform and in accordance with applicable state real estate laws. Nothing on tic.exchange constitutes an offer to buy or sell real property, a financial product, a security, or an investment.

3. Listing terms

By submitting a listing to tic.exchange, you represent and warrant that:

• You are the owner of the TIC share being listed, or are duly authorized to list it on behalf of the owner
• The information provided in your listing is accurate, complete, and not misleading
• The TIC share is legally capable of being sold and transferred under applicable state law
• You hold all licenses required by applicable federal, state, and local law to list and sell the property interest
• The listing does not violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right

Individual vendor listings are charged at $99 USD per annum. Licensed agent subscriptions are charged at $198 USD per annum for unlimited listings. Listing and subscription fees are non-refundable once a listing has been published or a subscription has been activated. Listings will remain active until sold, withdrawn, or the annual fee lapses.

4. Bid terms

By submitting a bid offer on tic.exchange, you acknowledge and agree that:

• A bid is a promise to purchase at the price you have offered
• You have the ability and genuine intention to purchase the share of ownership on offer for the amount of your bid if accepted by the owner
• You must not place a bid if you have no intention of purchasing the ownership share being offered
• You must not engage in bidding with a purpose to manipulate or adversely affect the perceived value of the property
• Bid offers are forwarded directly to the vendor or their agent — tic.exchange plays no role in bid acceptance, negotiation, or the resulting transaction
• Submitting a bid does not create a binding contract of sale — that is formed between buyer and seller through their respective agents under applicable state law

tic.exchange accepts no liability for any loss arising from a bid offer being made, accepted, rejected, or withdrawn.

5. Bid alerts

By registering for bid alerts on a listing, you consent to receive email notifications each time a bid is submitted on that listing. Bid alert emails will show the percentage of ownership being bid for and the price offered. You may unsubscribe from bid alerts at any time by contacting support@tic.exchange. tic.exchange does not share your email address with third parties for marketing purposes.

6. TIC loans marketplace

The TIC loans section of tic.exchange is a lender enquiry matching service only. tic.exchange is not a lender, mortgage broker, loan originator, or credit provider, and is not licensed as such under any applicable state or federal law.

Loan enquiries submitted through the platform may be shared with specialist TIC lenders who may contact you directly. tic.exchange does not guarantee that any loan enquiry will result in a loan offer, and accepts no liability for any loan arrangement entered into between a borrower and lender. All lending arrangements are subject to applicable state and federal laws, including the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA).

7. Section 1031 exchange

Information on tic.exchange regarding Section 1031 tax-deferred exchanges is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute tax or legal advice. TIC structures are recognized under IRS Revenue Procedure 2002-22 as potentially qualifying for Section 1031 treatment, but the suitability of any specific TIC share as qualifying replacement property depends on individual circumstances and applicable IRS rules.

Users must obtain independent advice from a qualified tax professional and/or attorney before relying on any 1031 exchange information on this platform. tic.exchange accepts no liability for any tax consequences arising from a transaction entered into through or as a result of information on this platform.

8. No securities offering

tic.exchange facilitates the listing and discovery of direct real property ownership interests — specifically, Tenancy in Common shares in real property. These are direct ownership interests in real estate, not securities, managed investment products, or financial products as defined under applicable US federal or state law.

tic.exchange is not a registered broker-dealer, investment advisor, or securities exchange, and is not required to be registered as such in connection with the services it provides. Nothing on this platform constitutes an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any security or investment product.

9. Prohibited conduct

You must not use tic.exchange to:

• Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent listings or bid offers
• Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your identity or qualifications
• Violate any applicable federal, state, or local law or regulation
• Violate any fair housing law, including the Fair Housing Act
• Attempt to manipulate listing prices or bid activity
• Scrape, harvest, or systematically collect data from the platform without prior written consent
• Introduce malware, viruses, or other harmful code to the platform
• Use the platform in connection with any unlicensed real estate activity

We reserve the right to suspend or permanently terminate access to the platform for any user who violates these terms, without notice and without refund of any fees paid.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, TICX Pty Ltd, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and successors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, or special damages arising from your use of the platform, including but not limited to:

• Any loss arising from a property transaction entered into as a result of a listing or bid on this platform
• Any inaccuracy in a listing or user-submitted information
• Any failure to complete a transaction
• Any loss arising from reliance on information about Section 1031 exchanges or TIC loan products
• Any loss arising from unauthorized access to your account or data

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

The platform is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components.

12. Intellectual property

All content on tic.exchange, including the platform design, copy, domain portfolio, trademarks, and software, is the property of TICX Pty Ltd and is protected by applicable US and international intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from any platform content without our prior written consent.

13. Governing law and dispute resolution

These Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Any dispute arising from or relating to these terms or your use of the platform shall first be subject to good faith negotiation between the parties. If the dispute cannot be resolved by negotiation within 30 days, it shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), conducted in English.

Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek emergency injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent irreparable harm pending the outcome of arbitration.
