Many companies on Republic raise using instruments that can never grant voting rights, such as the Token DPA, Crowd SDA and Crowd TPA. Read more about each instrument and the Form C of each company you are interested in investing in.

Is investing in startups risky?

Under the terms of the Crowd SDA, investors lend money to the company in exchange for annual interest payments during the term of the agreement. The company has the right to accelerate repayment of interest and/or principal, subject to a minimum return multiple (e.g. 1.5x the principal). If the company makes all interest payments due under the Crowd SDA, the minimum return multiple will be satisfied.

RISK NOTE: payments are not guaranteed. The company may not have sufficient capital available to meet its payment obligations under the Crowd SDA, and the Crowd SDA is unsecured, meaning there is no collateral to which investors would have recourse in the event that the company is unable to meet its payment obligations.

Your return depends on your investment amount, the interest rate and the minimum return multiple amount detailed in the agreement. There is no guarantee of a return, as the company you lend to may not be able to service the debt and has not secured the debt with any assets.

With a standard SAFT, investors must wait for a public token sale or distribution by an issuing company to receive tokens, otherwise their right to a return on their investment can be left unfulfilled, possibly forever. In contrast, the Token DPA provides a method for investors to either receive part or all of their principal back, earn a cash return or receive the desired tokens when certain events occur. It should be noted, these protections rely on the company issuing the Token DPA abiding by its terms, there can be no guarantee of this. For example, if a company issuing a Token DPA spends all of their capital before investors’ right to request a return of capital occurs, investors’ could force the company into insolvency when they make the request.
