17. GENERAL NOTES

a.

This application for a Finance Search does not constitute an offer and /or solicitation for the
procurement of project finance by The Vitala Group or any of its subsidiary companies.

b.

In the event of The Vitala Group and /or any of its subsidiary companies financing directly a
project application, no Success Fees / Commissions shall become due.

c.

We do not charge up-front fees or any other hidden fees. We charge a percentage success fee
only upon an applicant accepting finance through The Vitala Group, acceptance always at the
applicant's sole discretion.

d.

It should be noted that neither the Vitala Group nor its companies, directors, shareholders and /or
affiliates receive any Finders Fees/ Commissions from other sources, unless specified in writing
by both parties, and these are subject to a signed Financial Procurement Agreement.

e.

If your project appears to be acceptable to us to proceed with, you may be responsible for the
cost of an initial site visit by one of our Executives, to meet your team and discuss the way
forward for your application. Such costs are fully refunded from our Success Fee listed in the
Financial Procurement Agreement, to be signed by both parties, if and when your party accepts a
financing offer made by The Vitala Group.

f.

In the event of other intermediaries / brokers / lenders representatives / agents making loan
proposals, separate Finders Fees / Commissions may be due and will be advised (where
applicable).
Such fees are subject to the signing of a separate agreement and are usually only due when a
financing offer has been accepted/ closed by the applicant.
In most cases, lenders will pay these fees directly from the loan proceeds to the
intermediary(ies).
Upon submission of loan proposals to the client, loan proposer, broker and financial
intermediaries need to be advised that the Vitala Group will require direct contact with those
involved in the project finance process after its first introduction.
This requirement is mandatory, in order to comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act
(FCPA), the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and with US Federal Money Laundering regulations under US
banking regulations.
The Vitala Group and its associated companies, are not licensed as a Financial Advisor or
Security Dealers, as defined by laws in the United Kingdom Financial Services and Marketing
Act 2000 and other similar legislation prevailing in the European Union, including the United
States of America Investment Advisors Act of 1940.
All information contained in this website is not governed by the SEC, the United States
Securities Act of 1933, and as amended, The Securities Exchange Act of 1940.

The above form is independently prepared and presented and is not to be construed as a solicitation for

would be exempted under successive legal acts as existing in the legal geographical jurisdiction of the
