A. Investment Related Risks
Speculative Investment
The Securities being offered should be considered a speculative investment. The ability of the Company to achieve its objectives may be determined by factors beyond its control that cannot be predicted at this time. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the Company’s efforts to continue its business operations will prove to be sufficient to enable the Company to generate the funds required to make distributions. Anyone investing in the Securities should do so only if they are financially able to sustain the loss of their entire investment and should recognize that such a possibility exists.
Dependence on the Airline Industry
The Issuer’s business is dependent on the airline industry’s need to repair its aircraft. If the airline industry’s need to have its aircraft repaired were greatly diminished, it could affect the Issuer’s ability to sell parts to third party maintenance, repair, and overhaul companies.
No Secondary Market for the Securities
As this security is a private transaction, there is currently no public market for the securities being offered herein. These Securities are not a publicly registered securities and will have no secondary sale liquidity.
Limited Operating History
A320 Teardown, LLC is an SPV founded for this transaction. While the management team and consignee are well established, there has not yet been a proof of concept for this transaction.
Purchases by Affiliates of the Issuer or Other Parties with a Financial Interest in the Offering
Units may be purchased by the affiliates of the Issuer, or by other persons who will receive fees or other compensation or gain dependent upon the success of the Offering. Such purchases may be made at any time and will be counted in determining whether the required minimum level of purchases has been met for the closing of the Offering. Therefore, Investors should not expect that the sale of sufficient Units to reach the specified minimum, or in excess of that minimum, indicates that such sales have been made to investors who have no financial or other interest in the Offering, or who otherwise are exercising independent investment discretion.
The sale of the specified minimum, while necessary to the business operations of the Issuer, is not designed as a protection to investors, or to indicate that their investment decision is shared by other unaffiliated investors. Because there may be substantial purchases by affiliates of the Issuer, or other persons who will receive fees or other compensation or gain dependent upon the success of the Offering, no individual investor should place any reliance on the sale of the specified minimum as an indication of the merits of the Offering. Each investor must make his own investment decision as to the merits of this Offering.
Reclassification of Relationship
The Company and the Consignment Agent will take any and all actions reasonable and necessary for the consignment relationship between the parties to be deemed a true consignment under the Uniform Commercial Code, but investors should be cautioned that such relationship may be reclassified by courts of law in the event of a dispute. If the Consignment Agent becomes the subject of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding, there can be no assurance that the Company will be respected a consignor. A court could determine, based on the facts and circumstances, that the consignment relationship should be recharacterized as disguised financings or subordinated to the claims of other creditors under principles of equitable subordination. If the consignment relationship were reclassified as a disguised financing, the Company would be treated as a secured lender rather than as a consignor and would likely lose ownership of the Aircraft Parts. Similarly, if any disguised financing were subordinated, the investors’ right to receive payment on the loan would rank junior to the claims of other creditors. Any such recharacterization or reclassification could materially and adversely affect the lender’s ability to recover amounts owed.
Rights of the Company in the Aircraft Parts may be affected by Bankruptcy Proceedings
The rights of the Company to foreclose upon, repossess, and dispose of the Aircraft Parts is likely to be significantly impaired (or at a minimum delayed) by federal bankruptcy law if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced by or against the Consignment Agent.
B. Industry-Related Risks
Demand related
Any substantial decline in the demand for products sold by the Issuer (such as parts related to specific, older airframes) including, but not limited to, the introduction of new technology or airframe types, may cause a decline in the market value of Issuer’s product and negatively impact the Issuer’s financial performance.
Price Volatility of Commercial Aircraft Parts
Pricing for commercial aircraft parts varies significantly depending on whether the certification for a given part has been properly maintained. While the consignee has represented that it has verified such certification and that its record systems are adequate regarding parts certifications, the maintenance of such documentation is critical to the value of the Engine Parts.
Pandemic and Epidemic Related Risks
The rapid spread of a contagious illness such as the coronavirus (COVID-19), or fear of such an event, can have a material adverse effect on the demand for worldwide air travel and therefore have a material adverse effect on the Issuer’s business and results of operations. Similarly, travel restrictions or operational issues resulting from the rapid spread of contagious illnesses may have a material adverse effect on the Issuer’s business and results of operations.
Quality & Safety of the Products
Success for the Issuer’s business depends, in part, on the quality and safety of the inventory lot products. If the products are found to be defective or unsafe, or if they otherwise fail to meet consumer’s standards, relationships with customers or consumers could suffer.
Regulatory Oversight
The Issuer’s projects are subject to international, federal, and state laws, as well as agencies including, but not limited to, the Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration. As with all airline-related industries, the Issuer’s projects are expected to have a variety of regulatory oversight as development proceeds. The Issuer and consignee intend to conduct their business activities in a compliant manner and in accordance with all applicable laws but may still be subject to accidents or other unforeseen events which may compromise its performance, and which may have adverse financial implications.
Changes in Laws, Regulations and Policies
Changes in the laws, regulations and policies including the interpretation or enforcement thereof, that are germane to the Issuer’s industry, can affect its business including changes in accounting standards, tax laws, data privacy as well as anti-corruption laws. Additionally, as the Consignee and issuer continue to sell and expand its international business, it may be subject to laws relating to selective distribution, environmental or climate change laws, trade accords and customs regulations could adversely affect the Issuer’s distribution endeavors.
Competition
The Issuer, through the Consignment Agent, competes with other engine part supply companies in the industry. Competitors include companies that may have greater financial and other resources than the Issuer. Additionally, these competitors may use pricing or other strategies to prevent the Issuer from achieving its business development objectives. This may have a material adverse impact on the financial position and prospects of the Issuer.
Prolonged Periods of Stagnant or Weak Economic Conditions
As a result of the discretionary nature of air travel, the airline industry has been cyclical and particularly sensitive to changes in economic conditions. During periods of unfavorable or volatile economic conditions in the global economy, demand for air travel can be significantly impacted as business and leisure travelers choose not to travel, seek alternative forms of transportation for short trips or conduct business through videoconferencing.
C. Management-Related Risks
Limited Investor Participation in Operations
The Investors will have limited ability to participate in any manner in the management of the Issuer or its day-to-day decisions. Neither the Investors nor the Issuer will have the ability to participate in any manner in the management of the Consignment Agent or its day-to-day decisions.
Reliance on Key Personnel
Due to the nature of this opportunity, the SPV, has a significant reliance on the Consignment Agent, as they are the only distributor and seller of the SPV’s inventory parts.
D. Offering-Related Risks
Acceptance of Investors on a First-Come, First-Serve Basis
The Issuer reserves the right to accept or reject any proposed investment in its sole discretion. Subject to this discretion, it intends to accept investments on a “first-come, first-served” basis, with the consequence that Investors will be allocated a portion of the total Offering, based upon the amounts they have committed, in the order in which such commitments have been accepted. The Issuer is not required to accept all commitments tendered to it. There is no assurance, therefore, that your commitment will necessarily be accepted in whole or in part by it should it raise more or less funds than are needed to make its investments.
Possibility of Material Differences Between Projected and Actual Results
The financial projections contained in this Offering Summary and any supplements represent the Issuer’s estimated results of operations. The financial projections have been prepared upon the basis of assumptions and estimates which may differ from actual events and/or circumstances.
Reliance on Aspects of the Offering
Potential investors should not rely exclusively on one aspect of the security structure, such as experience of the consignee of the Issuer or the collateral value of its inventory, when making an investment decision in order to participate in this Offering.
E. Federal Income Tax Risks
Lack of Rulings and Opinions; Possibility of IRS Challenge of the Issuer’s Tax Position
The Issuer has not requested and will not request any tax ruling from the IRS regarding the tax consequences of the Issuer’s activities. Accordingly, there is no certainty as to the tax consequences of participating in the Securities. The Issuer has not sought or obtained a legal opinion with respect to the tax treatment of the offering proceeds or issuance of the Securities. Accordingly, Investors are urged to consult your own tax advisor with respect to the federal and state tax consequences arising from participation in this Offering.
Risk of Audit to Investors
There is a possibility that the IRS will audit the Issuer’s income tax returns. If the Issuer’s income tax returns are audited, your return might also be audited.
Future Federal Income Tax Legislation and Regulations
No assurance can be given that the current Congress or any future Congress will not enact federal income tax legislation that could adversely affect the tax consequences of participating in the Securities.
F. Other Risks
Unforeseen Risks
In addition to the above risks, businesses are often subject to risks not foreseen or fully appreciated by management. Prospective investors reviewing this Offering Summary should keep in mind other possible risks that could be important to the success of their investment in the Securities.

Important Disclosures
These securities have not been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC” or the “Commission”), or with any state securities commission or any other regulatory authority. The securities are being offered in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirement of federal and state securities laws and cannot be resold unless the securities are subsequently registered under such laws or unless an exemption from registration is available.

These securities are offered through Carofin, LLC, Member of FINRA/SIPC. Carolina Financial Securities is an affiliate of Carofin and both Broker-Dealers are affiliates of Carolina Financial Group, LLC.

Our firms seek to present vital capital with meaningful investment opportunities through the fundamental analysis of the businesses we seek to finance. Such analysis is usually conducted through a First Principles approach.
When we provide you with a recommendation, we have to act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. At the same time, the way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests. You should understand and ask us about these conflicts because they can affect the recommendations we provide you. Here are some examples to help you understand what this means:
Proprietary Products: Our firms will often present investments that are only available through them, which may result in a higher placement fee. The Firms will receive the placement fee regardless of your investment performing as expected.
Our firms offer brokerage services to accredited investors, exclusively through the sale of private placements. the offerings we bring to market are carefully selected, and any recommendation you may receive from us will be limited to these offerings. Therefore, we may be unable to adequately compare the risks and benefits of the offerings we bring to offerings presented by other financial professionals. While our firms will often present new investments and discuss such investment’s risks and benefits with you, the ultimate authority to make such investment rests solely with you. Our firms do not hold any investor cash or securities, and securities offered by us often have no easily assessable market value, so our firms will not monitor the market value of your investment on an ongoing basis. The investments we present often require a minimum investment of $5,000 for equity offerings and $10,000 for debt offerings.
Fees and costs may reduce any amount of money you make on your investments over time. Our firms are mostly compensated through placement fees, which are payable by the issuer, meaning that the firms will be compensated by receiving a percentage of the funds raised in an offering, regardless of the investment performing as expected. Such placement fee is usually between 3% and 7% (please find the specific Placement Fee for this offering in the “Placement Agent Fees” section of the “Security Terms”. Given that different investments have different placement fees, we may often have a conflict of interest when presenting these investments to you. The Firms’ bankers are often compensated by receiving a percentage of the placement fee, and may have their own conflict of interest when presenting you with offerings they structure.
