MS Microcaps LLC is not registered as an investment advisor under the Securities Act or under any state laws. None of our trading or investing information, including the Content, MS Microcaps LLC Email and/or content or communication (collectively, “Information”) provides individualized trading or investment advice and should not be construed as such. Accordingly, please do not attempt to contact MS Microcaps LLC, its members, partners, affiliates, employees, consultants and/or hedge funds managed by partners of MS Microcaps LLC (collectively, the “MS Microcaps LLC Parties”) to request personalized investment advice, which they cannot provide. The Information does not reflect the views or opinions of any other publication or newsletter.
We publish Information regarding certain stocks, options, futures, bonds, derivatives, commodities, currencies and/or other securities (collectively, “Securities”) that we believe may interest our Users. The Information is provided for information purposes only, and MS Microcaps LLC is not engaged in rendering investment advice or providing investment-related recommendations, nor does MS Microcaps LLC solicit the purchase of or sale of, or offer any, Securities featured by and/or through the MS Microcaps LLC Offerings and nothing we do and no element of the MS Microcaps LLC Offerings should be construed as such. Without limiting the foregoing, the Information is not intended to be construed as a recommendation to buy, hold or sell any specific Securities, or otherwise invest in any specific Securities. Trading in Securities involves risk and volatility. Past results are not necessarily indicative of future performance.
The Information represents an expression of our opinions, which we have based upon generally available information, field research, inferences and deductions through our due diligence and analytical processes. Due to the fact that opinions and market conditions change over time, opinions made available by and through the MS Microcaps LLC Offerings may differ from time-to-time, and varying opinions may also be included in the MS Microcaps LLC Offerings simultaneously. To the best of our ability and belief, all Information is accurate and reliable, and has been obtained from public sources that we believe to be accurate and reliable, and who are not insiders or connected persons of the applicable Securities covered or who may otherwise owe any fiduciary duty or duty of confidentiality to the issuer. However, such Information is presented on an “as is,” “as available” basis, without warranty of any kind, whether express or implied. MS Microcaps LLC makes no representation, express or implied, as to the accuracy, timeliness or completeness of any such Information or with regard to the results to be obtained from its use. All expressions of opinion are subject to change without notice, and MS Microcaps LLC does not undertake to update or supplement any of the Information.
The Information may include, or may be based upon, “Forward-Looking” statements as defined in the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-Looking statements may convey our expectations or forecasts of future events, and you can identify such statements: (a) because they do not strictly relate to historical or current facts; (b) because they use such words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect(s),” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipates” or the negative thereof or other similar terms; or (c) because of language used in discussions, broadcasts or trade ideas that involve risks and uncertainties, in connection with a description of potential earnings or financial performance. There exists a variety of risks/uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ from the Forward-Looking statements. We do not assume any obligation to update any Forward-Looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, and such statements are current only as of the date they are made.
You acknowledge and agree that use of MS Microcaps LLC Information is at your own risk. In no event will MS Microcaps LLC or any affiliated party be liable for any direct or indirect trading losses caused by any Information featured by and through the MS Microcaps LLC Offerings.

We also may not directly discuss personal trading or investing ideas with you. The Information made available by and through the MS Microcaps LLC Offerings is not a substitute for professional financial advice. You should always check with your professional financial, legal and tax advisors to be sure that any Securities, investments, advice, products and/or services featured by and through the MS Microcaps LLC Offerings, as well as any associated risks, are appropriate for you.
You further agree that you will not distribute, share or otherwise communicate any Information to any third-party unless that party has agreed to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement including, without limitation, all disclaimers associated therewith. If you obtain Information as an agent for any third-party, you agree that you are binding that third-party to the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement.

21. Dispute Resolution, Class Action Waiver and Arbitration. The Agreement shall be treated as though it were executed and performed in New York, NY and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (without regard to conflict of law principles). Should a dispute arise concerning the MS Microcaps LLC Offerings, the terms and conditions of the Agreement or the breach of same by any party hereto: (a) the parties agree to submit their dispute for resolution by arbitration before a reputable arbitration organization as mutually agreed upon by the parties; and (b) each User agrees to first commence a formal dispute proceeding by completing and submitting an Initial Dispute Notice which can be found Here. We may choose to provide petitioning Users with a final written settlement offer after receiving such User’s Initial Dispute Notice (“Final Settlement Offer”). If we provide a petitioning User with a Final Settlement Offer and that User does not accept it, or we cannot otherwise satisfactorily resolve that User’s dispute and that User wishes to proceed, that User must submit its dispute for resolution by arbitration before a reputable arbitration organization as mutually agreed upon by the parties, in that User’s county of residence, by filing a separate Demand for Arbitration, which is available Here. If the arbitrator awards a User relief that is greater than our Final Settlement Offer, then we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration and, if that User retained an attorney to represent it in connection with the arbitration, we will reimburse any reasonable attorneys’ fees that such User’s attorney accrued for investigating, preparing and pursuing the claim in arbitration. Any award rendered shall be final and conclusive to the parties and a judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude any party from: (i) seeking injunctive relief in order to protect its rights pending an outcome in arbitration; and/or (ii) pursuing the matter in small claims court rather than arbitration. Although we may have a right to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses if we prevail in arbitration, we will not seek such an award from any User unless the arbitrator determines that such User’s claim was frivolous.
To the extent permitted by law, each User agrees that it will not bring, join or participate in any class action lawsuit as to any claim, dispute or controversy that it may have against MS Microcaps LLC and/or its employees, officers, directors, members, representatives and/or assigns. Each User agrees to the entry of injunctive relief to stop such a lawsuit or to remove it as a participant in the suit. Each User agrees to pay the attorney’s fees and court costs that MS Microcaps LLC incurs in seeking such relief. This provision preventing Users from bringing, joining or participating in class action lawsuits: (A) does not constitute a waiver of any User’s rights or remedies to pursue a claim individually and not as a class action in binding arbitration as provided above; and (B) is an independent agreement. Any User may opt-out of these dispute resolution provisions by providing written notice of her/his decision within thirty (30) days of the date that it first accesses the Site.
