Introduction to the Legal Mechanism of Investment (EPOS)
The present document outlines the functioning of the Easy Prepayment on Shares (EPOS) system used by The Calçotada Company as a simplified financing mechanism. The EPOS system allows the Investor to contribute funds that automatically convert into shares upon meeting certain conditions or predefined dates. This process aims to make financing more accessible and align the Investor’s interests with the growth of the Company.
Important Note on Use of Funds: In addition to describing the EPOS system, this document binds the capital contributed by Investors to the specific obligation that all such funds shall be used exclusively to establish the Dutch Headquarters for The Onion Guy.
Conversion of the investment into shares is carried out by applying a progressive discount that favors early investors. The closer the Company is to achieving the total funding goal, the lower the applicable discount, reflecting reduced risk for the Investor in these advanced stages. Additionally, the system offers further bonuses for investors who actively contribute to bringing other investors into the community.
Discount Computation: Unlike a simple percentage-based approach, the discount under the EPOS system is calculated by measuring the area under the discount curve, thereby reflecting the cumulative advantage afforded to early participants as the Company’s financing needs are progressively met.
Valuation Cap and Market Valuation Note: The conversion of the investment into shares is subject to a valuation cap of EUR 25,000,000 (twenty-five million euro). If the Company’s valuation exceeds EUR 50,000,000 (fifty million euro), the conversion price for the Depositary Receipts shall be calculated based on half of the Market Valuation.

Investment Platform

Progressive Discount
