II.

If a Party or its Authorized Person (the “Offeror”) responds to an Invitor with an offer for Digital Assets through an Agreed Communication Method, such offer in respect of the Invitation will constitute a binding offer by the Offeror to conduct a Transaction, provided the following terms are clearly expressed:

the Ordered Digital Assets which are the subject of the Transaction:

the number of Ordered Digital Assets which are the subject of the Transaction;

the price of the Ordered Digital Assets, including the currency (whether Fiat Currency or further Digital Assets), which will be the purchase price of the Ordered Digital Assets;

the time, if any, at which the offer will expire and be deemed to have been rejected; and

the Total Consideration, (together a communication that clearly expresses these elements is an “Offer”).

III.

For the avoidance of doubt, a Party is under no obligation to make an Offer in response to an Invitation by an Invitor.

IV.

Unless otherwise agreed by Nonco Group, Nonco Group is under no obligation to make or accept an Offer if (x) where the Counterparty is a purchaser, the Counterparty has insufficient available limit in Relevant Fiat Currency or Digital Assets available for the Offer, as recorded by Nonco Group in the Account, to meet the Total Consideration; or (y) where the Counterparty is the seller, the Counterparty has insufficient available limit of the Ordered Digital Asset in the Account to meet the relevant Offer (together with (x); each a “Prefunding Condition”); or (z) the Offer is unclear, ambiguous or incomplete in Nonco Group sole opinion.

An Offer will expire and be deemed to have been rejected after the time-period expires from the making of that Offer, unless an Offer is stated to have been expired by an Invitor or Nonco Group before that time period.

VI.

If, after receiving an Offer from an Offeror through an Agreed Communication Method, the Invitor accepts the Offer through an Agreed Communication Method before the expiration of that Offer, then the Transaction is agreed on the terms of the Offer, and is (in the absence of manifest error) deemed to be a final and binding agreement between the Parties in respect of that Transaction.

VII.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Nonco Group may reverse or cancel an Order or Transaction if, in Nonco Group’s opinion:

such Order or Transaction may (x) have the effect, or is likely to have the effect, of creating a false market or misleading appearance of active trading in any Digital Asset or with respect to the market for, or the price of, any Digital Asset; or (y) result in a finding of market misconduct in any jurisdiction by Nonco Group;

the Ordered Digital Asset is subject to a Halt at the time the Order is received; or

there is a manifest error in such Order or Transaction.

5.2 Confirmations

Upon the Parties agreeing to a Transaction as specified above and subject to Section 5.3;

Nonco Group, must send to the Counterparty a Confirmation (which may also be titled “Trade Confirmation” or similar) to confirm and evidence the Transaction as soon as practicable, but in any event by the end of the Business Day following the Invitor accepting the Offer. The Parties agree that such Confirmation will be sufficient for all purposes to evidence a binding Transaction;

Confirmations may only be:

sent through the Agreed Communication Method; and

made by Nonco Group’ Authorized Person.

The Confirmation must confirm the details of the Transaction;

If the Counterparty does not confirm the terms set out in a Confirmation or notify Nonco Group of any errors in a Confirmation within 30 minutes of the time stamp on the Confirmation, the Counterparty will be deemed to have agreed to, and confirmed, the terms set out in the Confirmation;

Nonco Group will not provide reporting of the Transaction for the purposes of any applicable law;

If the trade was done electronically, the counterparty needs to confirm at the end of day the netting or set-off of the trades.

5.3 Condition Precedents for Payment and Delivery by Nonco Group

Nonco Group’s performance of its payment and delivery obligations under Section 7 are subject to the condition precedents that no Default Event or Potential Default Event with respect to the Counterparty has occurred or is occurring;

If the condition precedents are not satisfied, Nonco Group is not obliged to make any payment or delivery under a Transaction until the condition precedents are all satisfied.

5.4 Transaction may also be governed by other provisions

Without limiting any provision of this DATA, all Transactions are subject to:

5.5 Position limits and position management controls

Nonco Group may, from time to time, impose trading and position limits, and position management controls, on the Counterparty, including limits and controls to mitigate and manage Nonco Group’s own liquidity, operational, credit and other risks, at any time, without prior notice and without giving reasons;

The Counterparty agrees to comply with any limits or controls imposed by Nonco Group under Section 5.5(1);

Nonco Group may monitor the Counterparty’s positions against the limits or controls imposed by Nonco Group under Section 5.5(1);

To ensure compliance with any trading positions or limits set by Nonco Group under Section 5.5(1), Nonco Group may require the Counterparty to limit, terminate, or reduce positions which it may have at any time, and Nonco Group may decline to execute an Order, or to suspend the Counterparty’s access to any system, or to effect settlement of any one or more Transactions, or to take any other action that Nonco Group considers appropriate in the circumstances;

5.6 Authority of Authorized Persons

Each Party is entitled to rely on notices, consents, communications and other actions (including instructions and the exercise of any discretions or elections) that appear to have originated from the other Party or its Authorized Persons.

The notices, consents, communications and other actions referred to in Section 5.6(1) are binding on each Party. A Party must indemnify and hold harmless the other Party from all Loss incurred in reliance on those notices, consents, communications or other actions.

Where a Party (“X”) has accepted that its Authorized Persons may communicate instructions to the other Party (“Y”) by way of an Agreed Communication Method, Y is not required to verify the identity of those Authorized Persons in that Agreed Communication Method and is entitled to rely on any instructions (including any Invitation or acceptance of an Offer) communicated via an Agreed Communication Method.

The Counterparty agrees to provide Nonco Group with evidence of due authority and specimen signatures for each Authorized Person upon request.

6. CALCULATIONS

6.1 Calculation agent

Nonco Group is the calculation agent for each Transaction and calculations are carried out by Nonco Group, acting in a commercially reasonable manner. The calculation agent is, subject to the relevant Confirmation, responsible for:

calculating any rates, amounts, periods and dates (including any changes) specified in the Confirmation or as designated by the Parties;

giving notice to the Parties of such rates, amounts, periods and dates;

determining the value in Fiat Currency of any Digital Asset;

effecting or calculating any Fiat Currency or Digital Asset conversion necessary or desirable for the purposes of any Transaction (including in connection with the calculation of any Settlement Amount); and

calculating any netting or set-off in accordance with Section 8.

The calculations and determinations of the calculation agent are final and binding on the Parties in the absence of manifest error.

6.2 Adjustments

If, in Nonco Group’s sole reasonable opinion, any event or circumstance, including any Network Event or Default Event, occurs that adversely affects Nonco Group’s ability in determining the amount payable to or by the Counterparty in respect of any Transaction and such circumstances continue for a period of not less than 2 Business Days, Nonco Group may make such adjustments to the method used or to be used to determine the amount payable to or by the Counterparty in respect of any Transaction in accordance with Nonco Group’s customary practices or market practice of which Nonco Group is aware (if any).

Adjustments made in accordance with Section 6.1(a) are binding and conclusive as against the Parties.

7. SETTLEMENT

7.1 Each Party must make the payments and deliveries and perform other obligations required by a Transaction:

Using the Nonco Counterparty Portal, unless otherwise agreed;

in accordance with:

the relevant Confirmation;

this Digital Asset Trading Agreement; and

the Nonco Terms (if applicable);

in the amount specified in the relevant Offer; and

in freely transferable and immediately available Fiat Currency and/or Digital Assets, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction or withholding (including on account of any Tax) unless:

required by law; or

permitted under this DATA.

The Counterparty shall settle the relevant Transaction using any assets provided to Nonco in connection with a Prefunding Condition;

From time to time, Nonco Group may agree to offer Digital Asset Counterparty Services to the Counterparty without the Counterparty first satisfying the Prefunding Conditions on the following settlement terms:

DVP (Delivery Versus Payment): The Counterparty shall settle the relevant Transaction in Fiat Currency by the immediately following Banking Day (in the case of purchasing Digital Assets) or deliver the relevant Digital Assets (in the case of selling Digital Assets) within 24 hours of the Parties entering into such Transaction (each such deadline, a “Settlement Deadline”). Notwithstanding paragraph (a), Nonco Group may, in its sole discretion, request the Counterparty to settle any Transaction prior to the relevant Settlement Deadline, and the Counterparty shall make such payment and delivery accordingly;

b. FOP (Free of Payment): Nonco Group shall settle the relevant Transaction in Fiat Currency by the immediately following Banking Day (in the case of purchasing Digital Assets) or deliver the relevant Digital Assets (in the case of selling Digital Assets) within 24 hours of the Parties entering into such Transaction (each such deadline, a “Settlement Deadline”). Notwithstanding paragraph (a), Nonco Group may, in its sole discretion, settle any Transaction prior to the relevant Settlement Deadline. Once Nonco Group delivers its side of the transaction, the counterpart must deliver its side of the transaction prior to the relevant Settlement Deadline.

Settlement via third parties: Nonco Group and counterparts may have the option to settle via clearing facilities or 3rd-party custodians upon request. Both parties shall send the funds within the relevant settlement deadline

Prior to the occurrence or effective designation of a Termination Time in respect of a Transaction, if the Counterparty fails to make payment or delivery hereunder, it will be obliged to pay a late fee (before as well as after judgment) on the overdue amount to Nonco Group on demand in the same currency as the overdue amount, for the period from (and including) the Settlement Deadline to (but excluding) the date of actual payment or delivery at a rate of (i) in respect of Digital Assets, 0.05% per day or as notified by Nonco Group from time to time; or (ii) in respect of Fiat Currencies, an annual rate equal to 3% over the then current best lending rate for such currency offered by the Nonco Group from time to time.

8. NETTING AND SET-OFF

8.1 Netting

If, on any Payment Netting Day, the Parties have payment and delivery obligations in the same Fiat Currency or the same Digital Asset in respect of two or more Transactions, then Nonco Group may elect for such Fiat Currency to be paid, or such Digital Asset to be delivered, on a net basis so that such obligations will be automatically satisfied and discharged and, if, in respect of the same Fiat Currency or the same Digital Asset, the aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by one Party exceeds the aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by the other Party, replaced by an obligation upon the Party by which the larger aggregate amount would have been payable to pay to the other Party the excess of the larger aggregate amount over the smaller aggregate amount. For the purpose of this Section 8.1, “Payment Netting Day” means any calendar day based on Central Standard Time.

8.2 Set-off

If an amount is payable by one Party (“Payor”) to the other Party (“Payee”) under this DATA (including a Termination Amount), then at Nonco Group’s option and after giving notice to the Counterparty, the Payor’s obligation to make payment of such amount will be reduced by way of set-off against any other amounts payable by the Payee to the Payor, whether or not arising under this Digital Asset Trading Agreement, matured or contingent and irrespective of the currency, asset type or place of payment. To the extent that such other amounts are so set off, those amounts will be discharged promptly and in all respects. For this purpose, any amounts subject to set-off hereunder may be converted by Nonco Group into the Termination Currency at the rate of exchange at which Nonco Group would be able, using commercially reasonable procedures, to purchase the relevant amount in such Termination Currency.

8.3 Nonco Group’s other rights

Nonco Group’s right to net and/or set-off under this Section 8 is in addition to any other right of set-off, offset, combination of accounts, lien, right of retention or withholding or similar right or requirement to which Nonco Group is at any time otherwise entitled or subject whether under this Digital Asset Trading Agreement or by operation of applicable law.

8.4 Control

Until the Counterparty satisfactorily prefunds all obligations owed to Nonco Group, encompassing any amounts due for Nonco Group’s provision of digital asset counterparty services Nonco Group shall retain comprehensive control over all digital assets and/or fiat currencies provided to Nonco Group. Nonco Group reserves the unequivocal right to enforce this control, without prior notice to the Counterparty, in accordance with prevailing laws.

Nonco Group is the sole owner of all crypto assets in each Nonco Group Wallet, and no Person, other than Nonco Group, has any right, title, or interest in any such crypto assets. Each Nonco Group Wallet is controlled by, and operated solely for the benefit of, Nonco Group.

With respect to any fiat currency that Nonco Group transfers and delivers to Counterparty hereunder, Nonco Group is the lawful owner of such fiat currency and Nonco Group has the absolute right to transfer and deliver such fiat currency to Nonco Group. Such fiat currency is free and clear of any and all security interests, liens, pledges, claims (pending or threatened), charges, escrows, encumbrances or similar rights.

Nonco Group is engaging in transactions under this Agreement on a principal basis for its own account. Nonco Group is not engaging in transactions under this Agreement as a broker, agent or other similar capacity on behalf of a third party.

9. NETWORK EVENT

9.1 Infrastructure Participant and Network Participant (If any Infrastructure Participant or Network Participant):

gives a direction, or makes a decision or election which affects a Transaction; or

becomes insolvent, is suspended from operating or undergoes a Network Event, then Nonco Group may take any action which Nonco Group, in its sole discretion, considers appropriate to correspond with the direction, decision, election or event (including a Network Event), or to mitigate any loss incurred or potential loss or impact which may be incurred as a result of such action or event. Any such action will be binding on the Counterparty (including, where relevant, making any decision or election in relation to a Network Event, any Forks, Airdrops or network protocol decisions).

9.2 Cooperation and enquiries

Where any Infrastructure Participant, Network Participant or any regulatory body makes an enquiry which relates to any Transaction under this DATA, the Counterparty agrees to co-operate with Nonco Group and that any information relevant to the enquiry may be passed to any Nonco Group Affiliates, or any Infrastructure Participant, Network Participant or Government Agency, as may be appropriate.

9.3 Network event

On each occasion of a Network Event, Nonco Group in its sole discretion, taking into account any market practice, may determine:

in the event of a Fork, which version of the Fork is recognised and supported, and where necessary to take any action or make any election required to implement such recognition and support of that Fork;

in the event of an Airdrop, whether to credit any Digital Assets received by Nonco Group to the account held in the Counterparty’s name, and upon what terms to do so, such decision regarding the Airdropped Digital Assets remains with Nonco Group at all times;

in the event of a Network Event which results in loss of ownership or control of Digital Assets, how such loss is apportioned; and

whether to halt trading in a specific Digital Asset, the Nonco Counterparty Portal generally, or any other activities for any period of time, which period of time may also be extended in Nonco Group’s sole discretion in accordance with the Nonco Terms.

10. DEFAULT EVENT

The occurrence at any time of any of the following events constitutes a Default Event:

failure by a Party to make, when due, any payment or delivery under this DATA required to be made by it, including amounts to be paid or delivered by the Counterparty under Sections 5.5 or 7;

the Counterparty or an Authorized Person of the Counterparty disaffirms, disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in part, this DATA or any Transaction, or otherwise cancels or reverses any Transaction;

a Party makes, repeats or is deemed to have made or repeated a representation that proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made or repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated;

a Party is Insolvent;

any other failure by a Party to comply with or perform any agreement or obligation to be complied with or performed by the Party in accordance with this DATA if such failure is not remedied within 7 Business Days after notice of such failure is given to the Party;

when the Counterparty, or an Authorized Person of the Counterparty, provides Nonco Group with evidence of payment instructions given by the Counterparty to its bank to transfer Fiat Currency to Nonco Group in connection with its settlement obligations under Section 7, and the Counterparty or an Authorized Person subsequently revokes or cancels such payment instructions.

The Party in respect of which a Default Event has occurred and is then continuing is the “Defaulting Party”. A Party must immediately notify the other Party if it becomes aware of the occurrence of a Default Event.

11. TERMINATION

11.1 Optional Early Termination

Either Party may terminate this DATA by giving the other Party at least 30 days’ notice.

11.2 Termination Events

The occurrence at any time of any of the following events constitutes a Termination Event:

a Party is prevented from completing a Transaction, or it becomes impossible or impracticable for a Party to complete a Transaction, due to a force majeure event that is beyond the control of the Party to overcome, having used reasonable commercial efforts, including without limitation, acts of war, terrorism, insurrection, civil disorder, industrial action, acts of state, operational or technical failures; or

it is or becomes unlawful for either Party to carry out its obligations or to exercise its rights under this DATA or any Transaction because of an event (other than any action taken by the Party) that arises after an Offer is accepted.

The Party in respect of which a Termination Event has occurred and is then continuing is the “Affected Party”.

11.3 Right to terminate

If, at any time, a Default Event or a Termination Event has occurred and is then continuing, the non-Defaulting Party (in the case of a Default Event) or the non-Affected Party (in the case of a Termination Event) may, by notice to the other Party specifying such event, formalize the Default Event or Termination Event and designate a time not earlier than 48 hours after such notice is delivered, period in which the Defaulting-Party will be able to cure the reason from which arises such Default Event or Termination Event (the “Termination Time”) upon which all Transactions shall be terminated. For the purpose of this Section 11.3(a), any notice sent by Agreed Communication Method will be deemed effective immediately upon delivery.

From the Termination Time:

all Transactions are terminated; and

the Calculating Party shall determine the amount, if any, payable in respect of such Termination Time (the “Termination Amount”), which may be subject to the exercise of set-off under this DATA. The Termination Amount will be an amount equal to:

the sum of the Settlement Amounts under all terminated Transactions; plus

ii.

the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Calculating Party; minus

iii.

the Unpaid Amounts owing to the non-Calculating Party,

In each case, converted into the Termination Currency at the rate of exchange at which the Calculating Party would be able, using commercially reasonable procedures, to purchase the relevant amount in such Termination Currency. If the Termination Amount is positive, the non-Calculating Party shall pay it to the Calculating Party and if it is negative, the Calculating Party will pay the absolute value of the Termination Amount to the non- Calculating Party.

11.4 Payment on termination

On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Termination Time, the Calculating Party will send the non-Calculating Party a notice specifying the Termination Amount calculated and the day by which such amount is payable. If no such day is specified, the Termination Amount shall be payable, in the case of:

a Termination Time which occurs as a result of a Default Event, on the first Banking Day following the day on which the notice is given; or

a Termination Time which occurs as a result of a Termination Event, on the day which is 2 Banking Days after the day on which the notice is given.

If the Counterparty does not pay the Termination Amount in accordance with Section 11.4, Nonco Group may, in addition to any other rights Nonco Group may have, exercise its rights of netting and setoff under Section 8.

APPENDIX (C). Risk Disclosure

This Digital Assets Risk Disclosure provides a description of certain risks associated with the Service provided by Nonco Group in relation to Digital Assets, but does not disclose or explain all the risks involved in the investment in digital assets and/or the use of the service. There may be additional risks that are not foreseen or identified in the Service Agreement or in this Risk Disclosure statement.

Digital asset prices exhibit high volatility, experiencing rapid and significant fluctuations in value. Digital assets trading exposes you to the risk of potential losses, especially if the asset’s value declines. When exchanging digital currencies for fiat currency, unfavorable exchange rates may lead to financial losses. Before engaging in digital asset trading with Nonco Group, it is essential to carefully assess your financial situation and risk tolerance. Only trade digital assets if you possess the financial capacity to endure potential losses. Any investment strategies and techniques employed are entirely your responsibility, and there may be unforeseen risks associated with trading digital assets.

Nonco Group does not offer or provide investment, legal, tax, or trading advice or recommendations. The availability of digital assets through Nonco Group does not imply any evaluation, assertion, or guarantee regarding the suitability or appropriateness of these assets for your specific financial circumstances. It is essential to seek independent professional advice and conduct thorough research before engaging in any transactions involving digital assets with Nonco Group.

The services provided by Nonco Group are strictly “execution only.” This means that they will not provide any advice or guidance regarding your transactions, and you are entirely responsible for all your trading actions. Nonco Group will not assess the suitability of your transactions or offer assistance in avoiding losses. It is crucial for you to seek independent advice from financial, legal, taxation, and other professionals to determine whether investing or trading in digital assets is appropriate for your individual circumstances.

Digital assets typically trade continuously 24/7, and their prices can undergo significant fluctuations, even on weekends. However, please be aware that your access to your Nonco Group Account and Nonco Counterparty Portal might be restricted during weekends, particularly due to planned maintenance hours. This limitation could impact your ability to engage in activities such as buying or selling digital assets over the weekend. It is essential to stay informed about any scheduled maintenance to plan your trading activities accordingly.

Nonco Group relies on computer software, hardware, telecommunications infrastructure, and networking to deliver their services to you. Without these systems, neither you can access your respective accounts nor can Nonco Group provide its services. However, it’s important to acknowledge that these computer-based systems and services are inherently susceptible to disruption, delays, or failures. Such occurrences may result in you losing access to the Nonco Counterparty Portal and, consequently, your Nonco Group Account. Additionally, these issues could lead to Nonco Group’s inability to provide digital asset quotations or trading services, and they may have a negative impact on various aspects of Nonco Group’s services. It’s essential to understand that under Nonco Group’s Trading Agreement, you accept their systems and services “as is,” and Nonco Group’s liability to you is limited.

Industries tied to digital assets continue to carry a perception of elevated risk within the jurisdictions of our operations, leading to potential disruptions and indefinite suspensions in the services provided by our banking partners. This circumstance also raises the possibility of unanticipated termination or loss of accounts held for fiat deposits or withdrawals, both for Nonco and our counterparty
