Subscription period
The subscription period begins on 26/09/2024 and ends on the Closing Date, which is in principle 10/11/2024.
It may be decided to extend the subscription period by 3 months, until 10/02/2025 at the latest, if the total amount of subscriptions on 10/11/2024 is at least €20,000.
The offering may be closed early once the minimum offering amount, of €25,000, has been reached. Early closure of the offer may also be decided if the total amount of orders contained in the subscription forms signed and transferred to Spreds reaches the maximum amount of the offer.

Tax Shelter (45%)
This investment opportunity is eligible for an income tax reduction for Belgian investors under the Belgian tax incentive system, the Start-Up Tax Shelter.
The maximum reduction of 45% of the total nominal amount invested in Participatory Notes is applicable because the underlying assets are the shares of a micro-enterprise.
This means that the total tax benefit will amount to a maximum of €225 per Participatory Note subscribed by the investor.
The budget available for Tax Shelter is €500,000.
Convertible loans
The company has convertible loans with imec.istart Fund in the amount of €100,000 and with Seeder Fund II SC in the amount of €100,000, which can be converted within the framework of a qualified financing by contribution in cash, by one or more parties, amounting to a minimum of €700,000, with €250,000 invested by new investors.
Note that a discount will apply to the conversion of the convertible loans, which is common for this type of investment.
Indeed, the discount granted is to compensate for the risk taken by the lenders by making capital available earlier than investors making a cash contribution at the time of a capital increase. A usual discount is 20% on the pre-money valuation applicable to the financing round where the loan is converted into equity.
EXPECT ME is in discussions with both lenders as they consider converting the loan agreement to equity. This will depend in part on the total amount raised during the Spreds campaign. If the loans are converted after the contribution by the EXPECTME 1A compartment of Spreds Finance, there will be dilution for Spreds Finance. If the loans are converted before contribution by Spreds Finance, there will be no dilution.
No dilution has been taken into account in the table to the right.
