Could you please provide an update on the valuation over the past two years? We haven’t received any updates during this time, and it would have been helpful to have received automatic updates at regular in... A: Hi Deepu, thanks for your note! Please review our materials provided here for the latest update in 2024 with respect to the offering. There were challenges with the aforementioned funding portal for automatic communications. This being one of the reasons we have decided to raise here on Wefunder. We are again raising capital on a SAFE note at $15M Valuation Cap up from a $10M Valuation Cap. - Q: ADAM LAZAR does not respond to emails. He is not very receptive. I invested with ASARASI when he campaigned on Republic and have not heard from him in over 2 years! He finally answered me after I reached out to Republic for their help.

Regarding your concerns, I want to ensure the record is accurate for you and the rest of our 2,900 investors: Despite the size of our investor base, I have personally emailed you several times over the past few years to re... - Q: Quick question. Investor here from 2020 on republic. Can you let us know what the share price was back then and what it currently is? If no share price can you tell us how much dilution for this new higher valuation? A: Dear Eric, Thank you for reaching out and for your early support as a 2020 investor on Republic—it's greatly appreciated as we continue this journey together. To answer your question: Our previous raise was completed via a SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity), which has not yet converted into shares. The conversion—including the effective share price for earlier investors—will be determined by the valuation and total amount raised in our current Wefunder round (a convertible note round).... - Q: I’m pissed!!! I just got an update from you all on Republic. The updates says that Askari is doing so well and having so much success. Really,?

However, as noted in the campaign terms, the ... - Q: Hi - 2 questions: 1. I was not part of the Republic raise, but that sounds like it was a SAFE offering. Why is the Wefunder offering a Convertible Note? 2. Is this investment only in the Asarasi business or does it include the Nekter Pop as well? A: Hi Eric, many thank for your question. The Wefunder offering is based on a Convertible Note with a valuation cap and interest. Unlike our earlier Republic SAFEs (2020–2021) that offered a cap, conversion discount and no interest. We’ve chosen a C-Note because a C-Note provides accruing interest as compensation while investors wait for conversion. Unlike our Republic SAFEs, which only convert on a qualified financing trigger these Convertible Note includes an automatic conversion at the 2-year... Recent posts: - FINAL DAY TO INVEST!
