The 10% Bonus for StartEngine Shareholders
Franny's Distribution Inc. will offer 10% additional bonus shares for all investments that are committed, within 24 hours of this offering going live, by StartEngine Crowdfunding Inc. shareholders who invested over $1,000 in the StartEngine Reg A offering which closed earlier this year.
StartEngine shareholders who invested $1,000 or more in that StartEngine Reg A offering will receive a 10% bonus on this offering within a 24-hour window of this offering’s launch date. This means you will receive a bonus for any shares you purchase. For example, if you buy 100 Non-Voting Shares at $2 / share, you will receive 55 Non-Voting Shares, meaning you'll own 55 shares for $100. Fractional shares will not be distributed and share bonuses will be determined by rounding down to the nearest whole share.
This 10% bonus is only valid for one year from the time StartEngine Crowdfunding Inc. investors received their countersigned StartEngine Crowdfunding Inc. subscription agreement.
Irregular Use of Proceeds
The company will not incur any irregular use of proceeds.

I’m super excited to make some announcements and give you a few updates. Our Franny’s Manufacturing stock campaign has surpassed the 100k mark. This is exciting as it will help us improve some of our manufacturing processes and improve the efficiency of our systems.
Having recently received our first campaign disbursement I have our team working diligently on fulfilling the perks that go along with your investment. It normally takes 3-4 weeks for our team to facilitate receiving the necessary merchandise and turning it around to each of you. We appreciate your patience with this process.
Yesterday I found out that we made the May 2020 cover of the Franchise Times Magazine. FTM is the premier publication for the franchising industry and getting a cover story is huge for entire system of Franny’s vertically integrated businesses. As more franchises are sold and opened it adds demand to our Distribution and Manufacturing businesses. https://www.franchisetimes.com/Issue-Archive/
We’ve held strong during this pandemic and I can clearly see that our Brand is gaining an increased amount regional and national recognition. Our online sales are growing on a weekly and monthly basis yet again adding to the demand on our supply chain.
On behalf of the entire Franny’s team and all of the stockholders I want to personally thank you for your confidence, commitment and investment in our company and future. I’m please with the progress I’m seeing and quite excited about the opportunities ahead of us in the coming weeks, months and years.

We wanted to thank all of the investors for believing in our company and supporting us as we grow. We have fully subscribed the offering and have begun the process of cancelling those who remain on wait-list of this campaign. StartEngine will start cancelling those pledged investments and no money will be drawn from your pledged source of funds.

Because of the massive excitement around our first campaign, we just launched a new campaign that can found at startengine.com/frannysfarm. We know that there was a number of interested investors in the 1st campaign that missed out so don't let this pass you buy. We're offering bonus shares for the first 7 days of the campaign so don't delay in getting your stock.

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements. To learn more about Regulation Crowdfunding, click here, and for Regulation A+, click here.
