  1. About VentureCare. VentureCare is technology service provider that owns and operates the Platform that enables sellers of private healthcare practices (“Sellers”) and qualified buyers (“Buyers”), through the Services provided by VentureCare Financial (“M&A Advisory Services”), to discover, evaluate, and enter into merger or acquisition transactions (each a “Transaction”) with respect to small to mid-sized private healthcare practices (“Private Healthcare Practices”) that meet the definition of an Eligible Private Company (defined below). Owners of Private Healthcare Practices may also access and use various practice support services including practice performance tracking, software integration, and valuation services. You understand that VentureCare Financial is not a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) registered broker-dealer or a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA). M&A Advisory Services are conducted exclusively by VentureCare Financial consistent with federal and state exemptions from registration as a broker or dealer. Accordingly, VentureCare Financial may only provide M&A Advisory Services in jurisdictions where it is authorized to do so.
