The Program Terms and Conditions can at all times be accessed at: https://www.lendahand.com/pages/terms-conditions-first-investment-guarantee
For the avoidance of doubt, if you invest under the Program on the Lendahand investment platform (platform), these Program Terms and Conditions will be regarded as binding, together with the overarching Website Terms and Conditions, the specific Product Terms and Conditions, the Debt Instrument Terms and Conditions and the Investor Referral Program Terms and Conditions. In case of conflict between the above-mentioned sets of terms and conditions, these Program Terms and Conditions prevail.
The investor who wants to participate in the Program must agree to the following conditions:
1. The Program ensures that the Investments that meet the criteria described in these Progam Terms and Conditions are guaranteed by the Crowdfunder, provided that all conditions mentioned herein are cumulatively met.
2. Term: The Start Date of the Program is: January 31st, 2024. The End Date of the Program is: March, 31st, 2024. NB. The End Date is not related to the maturity of the projects on the platform, but it only means the latest date on which investors can participate in the Program.
3. The Crowdfunder reserves the right to extend or shorten the Program Term at any time.
4. The Program is exclusively accessible to individuals or legal entities who have suffered adverse consequences due to not receiving, either partially or fully, an anticipated (re)payment related to one of their investments in a project on the Lendahand platform. Each natural or legal person can only participate once during the Term of the Program.
5. These general terms and conditions, and participation in this Program, shall be deemed expressly agreed to and accepted by the investor upon entering the coupon code of the Program during the placement of the online Order on the platform.
6. Participation in the Program will be confirmed by the Crowdfunder in an email.
7. The Program is applicable to an online order made on the platform. The maximum guaranteed amount is specified in point 10 below. The guarantee applies to a single order, which may include investments in one or more projects. It is important to note that the guarantee code cannot be used for any subsequent online orders, even if the maximum guaranteed amount has not been reached during the previous online order.
8. The Crowdfunder’s guarantee covers only the principal amount of the online Order, and excludes the interest portion.
Example 1: Julia invests EUR 100 in Project A. The investment meets the criteria of the online Order and it is covered by the Program. Project A has 1 repayment of EUR 100 with 5% interest (EUR 5). For Julia EUR 100 is guaranteed, not EUR 105.
9. When claiming the guarantee, interest shall not be taken into account. This means that if an investor initially invested EUR 100 and has already received a repayment of EUR 50 and an interest payment of EUR 5, he/she can still claim the remaining guaranteed amount of EUR 50 in the event of a write off of the project.
10. The maximum amount that is guaranteed for the online Order is: EUR 500.
11. If the online Order comprises multiple investments and its total exceeds the limit specified in point 10, all investments will be proportionally guaranteed up to that stated maximum.

Example 3: Julia places an online Order with 2 investments. EUR 600 in project A and EUR 400 in project B. This means that Project A is guaranteed for EUR 300 and project B for EUR 200.

Example 3.2: Project A defaults after EUR 300 has been paid back (excluding interest). Julia can claim EUR 0 under the Program terms and conditions.
12. A claim may be filed by an Investor when:
(1) Lendahand notifies the Investor that the investment has been written off, OR
(2) A payment is overdue by more than 365 days (‘365-Day Grace Period’), and no subsequent payments have been received since that delay. Any subsequent payment stops the 365-Day Grace Period, including partial payments, restructured payments, or any other payment related to that investment project.
Example 4: Julia has a guarantee of EUR 500 in project A. EUR 400 has been repaid successfully.
Example 4.1: Julia is notified by Lendahand that Project A has been written off. Julia can now file a claim for EUR 100 under the Program terms and conditions.
Example 4.2: Project A has a late payment of more than 365 days and no subsequent payment has been made since that delay. The 365-Day Grace Period has expired and Julia can now file a claim for EUR 100 under the Program terms and conditions.

A new payment is received according to the restructured repayment schedule on day 60. The 365-Day Grace Period is suspended and Julia can not file a claim under the Program terms and conditions.
13. After a claim is successfully filed by an investor and paid out by the Crowdfunder, the Crowdfunder is entitled to any subsequent (re)payments relating to the particular investment that the investor received compensation for.
Example 5: Julia has a guarantee of EUR 500 in project A. EUR 400 has been repaid successfully.
Example 5.1: The last repayment of EUR 100 is more than 365 days late. Julia files a claim and is repaid EUR 100 as part of the Program. Subsequently, a restructuring is announced, and EUR 50 of the EUR 100 is repaid. This EUR 50 will be for the account of the Crowdfunder, and not repaid to Julia.
14. The investor can file a claim within 180 calendar days from the date when:
(1) he/she was notified of the investment write-off, or
(2) the 365-Day Grace Period ended.
15. The Crowdfunder is responsible for administering the claims filed by investors relating to the Program. In case of a valid claim by an investor, the Crowdfunder has 90 days after receiving the claim to disburse any funds to the digital wallet of this investor at the Payment Institution.
16. The investor is responsible for claiming his/her guaranteed investment amount by sending an email to [email protected]. The Crowdfunder is not responsible for inviting investors to execute their claim.
