Robot-Hosting does not offer investments or securities to the public. Investment opportunities are only available to certain persons who are not members of the public, or who are "eligible persons", as defined in the Securities Act 1978.

Copies of selected sections of the Securities Act 1978 are provided below. Robot-Hosting provides no warranty as to the correctness of these sections and those seeking to register as an investor should seek independent professional advice.

(a) A reference to offering the securities to any section of the public, however selected; and

(b) A reference to offering the securities to individual members of the public selected at random; and

(c) A reference to offering the securities to a person if the person became known to the offerer as a result of any advertisement made by or on behalf of the offerer and that was intended or likely to result in the public seeking further information or advice about any investment opportunity or services,— whether or not any such offer is calculated to result in the securities becoming available for subscription by persons other than those receiving the offer.
