NOTICE OF FAIR FUND DISTRIBUTION PLAN
In the Matter of Impact Theory, Inc.
Administrative Proceeding File No. 3-21585
For more information, visit www.ImpactTheoryFairFund.com
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") has settled administrative proceedings (the "Order") against Impact Theory (the "Respondent"). In the Order, the SEC found that from October 13, 2021, to December 6, 2021, Impact Theory violated Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act by offering and selling crypto asset securities known as Founder's Keys without having a registered statement filed or in effect with the SEC or qualifying for an exemption from registration.
The SEC ordered the Respondent to pay $5,120,718.27 in disgorgement, $483,195.90 in prejudgment interest, and a $500,000.00 civil money penalty, for a total of $6,103,914.17, to the SEC. The SEC also created a Fair Fund, pursuant to Section 308(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, so the penalty collected, along with the disgorgement and interest collected, could be distributed to harmed investors (the "Fair Fund").
The Fair Fund will be paid out according to the Plan of Distribution ("Plan").
