Risk Disclaimer

Risks of Legal Uncertainty. Blockchain, cryptocurrency, and crypto assets have been subject to the regulatory burden in different countries. Some decisions of the countries may cause the malfunctioning of the Company or Token, including but not limited to, prohibitions and limits on the ownership or use of crypto tokens like Token.

Risk of Losing Access to Token Due to Loss of Credentials. Your Token may be associated with your account until Token is distributed to you. Your account can only be accessed with login credentials opted for by you. The loss of such credentials may result in the loss of Token. It is recommended to store these credentials in a safe place, preferably, with an opportunity to back-up such credentials.

Risks Related to Your Credentials. Any third party that gains access to your login credentials or private keys may dispose of your Token. To avoid such risks, you shall take appropriate security and technical measures.

Risk that the Company Will Change Its Plans and Strategy. The Company undertakes the Sale which depends on many factors and third-party decisions. Your expectancy with regard to the Token or the Company may differ from the reality for a number of reasons including, but not limited to, the Company’s views with regard to the performance of its strategy or plans.

Risk of Insufficient Interest in the Company or its projects. There is a probability that the Company will not be interested by a number of individuals and legal entities. Such a lack of interest could cause the Company, value of Token or other projects of the Company.

Risk of Malfunction in the Company. There is a risk of the Company’s malfunction causing the loss or decrease of Token.

Risk of an Illiquid Market for Token. At the time of publication of this document, Token may not be traded on exchanges. Upon being present on an exchange Token may cause fraud, experience security failures, or other similar issues. These events may cause a reduction in the value or liquidity of Token.

Risk of Dissolution of the Token. There is a risk of unfavorable decreases of the value of Token. This may result in the impossibility to undertake Company’s business and may dissolve Token or to fail to launch Token.

Risk of Cryptography. The development of cryptography or other technical means may cause risks to cryptocurrencies, the Company’s services, and Token.

Risk of Security. No company in the world can guarantee 100% security of its platforms and services. There may be mistakes intentionally or unintentionally left which may cause insecurity of the Token.

Risk of Theft and Hacking. Thieves, hackers, other groups, or criminal organizations may interfere with the Company or Token in various ways, including, but not limited to, DOS or DDoS attacks, man-in-the-middle attack, smurfing, spoofing, malware attacks, or other attacks which may cause the interference to the Company’s activity, Sale, or Token.

Other Unexpected Risks. Cryptocurrency and tokens are fresh and new technology. Countries may impose regulatory and legal burdens, and other changes in cryptocurrency and tokens may happen. We naturally cannot predict them. That is why the Company cannot foresee them.

Governing Law and Disputes

The Parties have agreed that any disagreement regarding the validity of the Agreement or resulting from its interpretation, execution, or termination shall be settled amicably by their representatives.

If after 15 days from the beginning of these unofficial negotiations the Parties fail to resolve the dispute amicably, the dispute will be awarded for final settlement by arbitration.

Exclusive Forum. If any claim, dispute, or controversy occurs between the Parties relating to the interpretation or implementation of any of the provisions of this Agreement is not solved, such dispute shall be resolved by private, confidential, and binding arbitration. Such arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement of the Parties or, in the absence of an agreement, such arbitrator shall be appointed by a judge upon the application of either Party.

Force Majeure and Fortuitous Event

Neither Party shall be liable for the non-execution on time — in whole or in part — or the defective execution of any of its obligations under this Agreement if the non-execution or defective execution of that obligation was caused by a force majeure event.

Force majeure events are considered: war, natural disasters, legal restrictions, and any unpredictable event, unavoidable and completely out of the control of the Parties.

The Party invoking force majeure is obliged to notify the other Party, within 5 days, of the occurrence of the event and to take all measures in order to limit or eliminate its consequences. Within 10 days of the occurrence of the event, the Party invoking force majeure must submit documents issued by the competent authorities certifying the occurrence, nature, and duration of force majeure. If within 30 days from the occurrence, the force majeure event does not cease, the Parties have the right to notify the full termination of this Agreement, without claiming damages that would result from the force majeure event.

Force majeure shall not relieve either Party of the obligations and liabilities resulting from this Agreement, assumed prior to its occurrence.

A fortuitous event is an event that cannot be foreseen by the Parties or prevented by the Party that would be called to answer if the event had not occurred. The fortuitous case removes the responsibility even if it does not present the characteristics of force majeure.

Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is found invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be amended to achieve as nearly as possible the same economic effect as the original provision, and the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement, which is unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall be ineffective only as to that jurisdiction, and only to the extent of such unenforceability, without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof.

Entire Agreement

This Agreement constitutes the final and complete agreement between the Parties regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous communications, representations, or agreements between the Parties, whether oral or written.
