Terms of Use
Introduction
Bison Partners through its Bison Select service provides listings
and other information regarding companies seeking financing
(the “Company Information”) on an “as is”
basis, solely for informational purposes and not as investment
advice of any kind. We have made no investigation of the accuracy
of the Company Information and it may contain errors, inaccuracies
and material omissions.
Any party that contacts a company listed on the Bison Select
portion of the site does so at its own risk and is responsible
for conducting its own due diligence review of such company.
We strongly encourage you to seek legal counsel prior to engaging
in any transaction with any of these companies. The Company
Information is suitable only for accredited investors who
are familiar with, and willing to accept, the high risk associated
with private investments. If you wish to access the Company
Information on this web site, you must certify that you are
an accredited investor.
Neither Bison Partners nor any of its affiliates is a broker-dealer,
and accordingly we are not registered as such under any securities
laws. Bison Partners, its affiliates and the companies providing
Company Information are not selling or offering to sell any
securities through this site and the Company Information contained
on this site is not intended to constitute or to be interpreted
as such an offer.

such person’s authorization; or (iii) use a username

to deny access to certain portions of this site based on Bison
Partners’ inability to verify the authenticity of your
