This Digital Trading Agreement (the “Agreement”) governs all transactions and is a binding contract among the Owner/Seller (“User”), the true and beneficial owner of certain units or shares (“Shares”) of a security (“Security/ies”), the Buyer/Bidder (“User”), INX Securities, LLC, a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA/SIPC (“INX Securities”), which operates the INX Securities alternative trading platform (the “Platform”).  In this Agreement, the term “Company” refers to any one or all of the following: the Platform, INX Securities and/or their affiliates.  The Agreement governs the terms under which the User is granted the right to bid for, purchase, offer for sale and/or sell Shares of Securities through the Platform.  All User activity on the Platform is governed by this Agreement and other documents included by reference. The following documents are part of this Agreement:  a “PRE-DISPUTE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT” (Section 13 below),
FUNDS AVAILABILITY DISCLOSURE, SECURITIES COOKIE POLICY, PRIVACY POLICY, and TERMS OF SERVICE. 

In addition, as set forth below, the User is agreeing to Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and other policies of the banking provider and its affiliates, Evolve Bank & Trust (“Evolve”), member FDIC. 

NOTICE: Please read all referenced Agreements, Disclosures, Policies, and Terms of Service.  These terms contain important information, including a binding arbitration agreement that impacts your rights when disputes are resolved.  If any of these terms are unacceptable to the User, then please do not visit, access or use the Platform. 

The User, when acting as a Seller, is the owner of the Shares of the Security and upon acceptance of this Agreement, shall grant Company the exclusive right to offer for sale on the Platform the User’s Shares in the Security for the period of time chosen by the Seller (“Term”) at the Ask Price for the number of shares specified by the User. 

By accepting the terms of this Agreement, the User offering a Security is obligated to sell the Shares of the Security if a transaction is executed at the Ask Price set by the User during the term of the order, and the User bidding on a Security is obligated to buy the Shares of the Security if a transaction is executed at the Bid Price set by the User during the term of the order.  

1. Eligibility of User to Trade on Platform
1. Account Approval – Each prospective User is required to register at https://one.inx.co/ and complete the onboarding process, in order to be approved and have trading access to the Platform. Each User must complete all the required information, which will require the User to provide, but not be limited to, certain personal information such as: legal name, address, phone number, date of birth, social security number, residency information, valid ID, accreditation information (as required), financial status, proof of funds, of banking relationship, employment information and investment experience.  The User acknowledges that the Company is the final decision maker of when or if a User is approved and owes no obligation or explanation to the applying User if the User’s application to the Platform is denied.
2. Identity Verification – All Users are subject to Anti-Money Laundering (“AML”) and Know Your Client (“KYC”) rules and regulations.  The User authorizes the Company to make any inquiries necessary to verify the identity of the User, protect against fraud or other financial crimes and/or comply with the legal obligations regarding AML and KYC.  Failure to provide proper information or offering misrepresentations when completing the onboarding process, will delay or prevent the Company from approving the User and could result in the revocation of a prior approval.
3. Digital Wallet aka MetaMask – Users wishing to participate in digital securities trading are required to download and install an approved browser-based Ethereum Wallet called MetaMask (“MM” or “Digital Wallet”) as part of the onboarding process. The Digital Wallet is where the User holds, receives and delivers the digital security tokens (“Security Tokens”), representing the uncertificated Security Tokens (as listed on the issuer’s master security ledger) that the User wishes to trade on the Platform. A User may hold multiple Security Tokens in the User’s Digital Wallet. The Company does not provide custodial services for the Security Tokens traded on the Platform or otherwise, and is not affiliated with MetaMask. Please note that each User will receive a unique private key for each MetaMask wallet and that these private keys will not be available to INX Securities and should never be provided to anybody else. Currently, the only approved way a User can hold Security Tokens for trading is in the User’s MetaMask Digital Wallet.  This is also where the User must deposit Ethereum (“ETH”) or the “gas” required to enter a Sell order.  See section 6 on “Funding, Withdrawals and Balances – User’s Digital Wallet and Trading Wallet” and the Funds Availability Disclosure available at>https://www.inx.co/.
4. Trading Wallet & Banking – Via the Platform’s onboarding process, each prospective User of the Platform is also agreeing to establish a bank account in the User’s name at Evolve (and its affiliates).  This User account (“Trading Wallet”) is used to deposit $USD and automatically settle all confirmed transactions.  A User must also link the User’s preferred non-Evolve banking account while completing the onboarding process.  See section 6 on “Funding, Withdrawals and Balances – User’s Digital Wallet and Trading Wallet” and the Funds Availability Disclosure available at https://www.inx.co/ .
2. Trading on the Platform by Approved User
1. Securities Trading Process – Only Securities approved by the Company and represented by Security Tokens held in the User’s MetaMask Wallet may be offered for sale on the Platform.
   1. Selling – The User, when acting as a Seller/Offeror, may create an Offer/Sell order, which shall indicate a Security, number of shares, duration of order Term and an Ask Price that will cause the Security to be offered on the Platform. By entering an Offer, the User is generating instructions to transfer the security to a buyer in the event of a match.  The User placing an Offer must pay the “gas” or ETH required to grant the authorization for the Platform to transmit the Seller’s transfer instructions in the event of a match.  See section 6 on “Funding, Withdrawals and Balances – User’s Digital Wallet and Trading Wallet” for more information. The Term of the Offer is determined by the User and is good until canceled. The User can cancel the Offer at any time prior to a match.
   2. Buying – The User, when acting as a Buyer/Bidder, may place a Bid/Buy order, which shall indicate the Security, number of shares and duration of the Bid.  The Term of the Bid will be good until canceled. The User can cancel the buy order at any time. See section 6 on “Funding, Withdrawals and Balances – User’s Digital Wallet and Trading Wallet” for more information.
2. Match Process – During the Term, Buyers may place Bids on the Platform to purchase the Security.  The Seller is obligated to sell, and the Buyer is obligated to buy the Security per the terms of this Agreement if the Buyer’s Bid price is at or above the Seller’s Offer Price during the Term. This obligation applies even if a sell or buy order is partially fulfilled.  The matching engine operates on a price-time priority algorithm. The Platform allows for partial fills of any Bid or Offer entered by a User.  The Company reserves the sole right to cancel any open Bid or Offer of the Shares of a Security at any time and all parties agree to hold the Company harmless if such is the case
3. Match Price – The Match Price is the Bid/Offer Price of a Bid/Offer order resting on the Platform’s order book, when a subsequent Offer/Bid with an Offer/Bid Price at or below/at or above the resting order is entered onto the Platform’s order book.  The total amount due from the Buyer is equal to the Match Price, plus any commission and fees (as described in the Fee Schedule available at https://www.inx.co/). The amount due to the Seller is equal to the Match Price, less any commission and fees (as described in the Fee Schedule available at https://www.inx.co/). The Company may, at its sole discretion, reduce the commission paid by the Buyer or Seller.
4. Offer Price – The Seller must indicate an Offer Price. If, at any time during the Seller’s Offer order Term, the Offer is the highest-priced Offer on the order book and a Buyer places a Bid order at or above the Offer Price, the Offer order will be considered matched and the Security will be transferred from the Offeror to the matching Bidder.
5. Bid Price – The Buyer must indicate a Bid Price when placing a Bid order.  If, at any time during the Bid order Term, the Bid is the highest-priced Bid on the order book and a Seller places an Offer order at or below the Bid Price, the Bid order will be considered matched and the Security will be transferred from the Offeror to the matching Bidder.
6. Type of Currency – Only $USD may be used to fund a User Trading Wallet.
7. Trading Times  – 24/7/365.
8. Document Delivery – User agrees to execute and deliver promptly to the Company any and all agreements, documents or instruments necessary or appropriate, for the avoidance of doubt, to effect an assignment or substitution on the books and records, or substantial equivalent, by the issuer of the Shares, as required by the Company to fulfill the obligations of the User as described in this Agreement. Documents and data may be delivered electronically.  Agreements are considered binding on the User if certified with electronic signatures or memorialized via an affirmative check box.
9. Transfer and Release of Funds – A match on the Platform will cause the Seller’s transfer instructions to be submitted to the Digital Registrar or Transfer Agent for the Security.   The Platform’s receipt of electronic confirmation from Digital Registrar or Transfer Agent that the transfer of the Shares in the Security has been completed, will effectuate the transmission of the Buyer’s instructions to Evolve: to distribute net proceeds from the Buyer’s Trading Wallet to the Seller’s Trading Wallet; and to distribute commissions and fees from the Buyer’s Trading Wallet to INX Securities’ Evolve account.

1. User acknowledges and understands that the Digital Wallet and the Trading Wallet are NOT the same and each has unique requirements, restrictions and purposes when participating on the Platform.
2. Digital Wallet – The Company provides no custodial services for the Security Tokens traded on the Platform.  A User wishing to participate in digital securities trading on the Platform must download and install an approved browser-based Ethereum Wallet called MetaMask (”MM” or “Digital Wallet”).  The Digital Wallet is where the User holds, receives and delivers the digital security tokens (“Security Tokens”), representing the uncertificated digital securities (as listed on the issuer’s master security ledger) that the User wishes to trade on the Platform, and where the User deposits ETH to pay the “gas” for offering securities on the Platform.  The User is exclusively responsible for depositing, withdrawing, managing and reconciling any and all Security Tokens and/or ETH that is held in their Digital Wallet for the purpose of trading on the Platform.  Entry of an Offer order on the Platform explicitly constitutes the User’s direct and complete instruction to the subject Security’s Digital Registrar or Transfer Agent to, upon match, transfer the Security to a matched buyer AND authorizes the Company to transmit this instruction, upon match, to the subject Security’s Digital Registrar or Transfer Agent.  See Funds Availability Disclosure available at https://www.inx.co/ for more information. 
3. Trading Wallet – The Company provides no custodial services for the funds traded on the Platform.  Via the Platform’s onboarding process, all approved Users on the Platform agree to establish a bank account in the User’s name at Evolve.  Evolve (and its network of service providers) will provide Platform User funds’ custodial bank services, money services and AML/KYC services as authorized by its charter. The Platform’s website discloses to Users and others that these services are being provided by a third party.  This User account (“Trading Wallet”) is used to settle any Platform User trading activity.  Entry of a Bid order on the Platform explicitly constitutes the User’s direct and complete instruction to Evolve to, upon match, distribute net transaction proceeds from the Buyer’s Trading Wallet to the matched Seller’s Trading Wallet and distribute commissions and fees from the Buyer’s Trading Wallet to INX Securities’ Evolve account AND authorizes the Company to transmit this instruction, upon match, to the subject Security’s Digital Registrar or Transfer Agent.  The Trading Wallet can be funded via methods described in Section 6 (d) “Deposit”  below.  The Platform’s dashboard screen displays the Trading Wallet’s $USD balance value, open orders and available balance.  $USD balance is the total amount of $USD the User has in their portfolio.  Open orders are equal to the open bids from the User and are subtracted from the $USD balance to show the User’s remaining available balance. Only $USD can be deposited as funding to the Trading Wallet.  No Securities are held in the Trading Wallet.
4. Deposit – A U.S. resident User may fund such User’s Trading Wallet by $USD ACH, $USD wire or ETH to $USD conversion (through an affiliated third-party provider).  A non-U.S. resident User may fund such User’s Trading Wallet by $USD wire or ETH to $USD conversion (through an affiliated third-party provider).
5. Withdrawal – Any User may withdraw funds from such User’s Trading Wallet by wire to the User’s linked bank account or $USD to ETH conversion (through a third-party provider) for ETH deposit back to the User’s Digital Wallet. A U.S. resident User may also withdraw funds from such User’s Trading Wallet by $USD ACH to the User’s linked bank account.

8. Rescission 

Company shall have the right, in its absolute discretion and without prior notice to the user, to rescind, reject, cancel or refuse to display any order or transaction. In such an event, the Company shall have no liability to any User.  

9. Account Suspension, or Termination 

The Company, at its sole discretion and without notice, may terminate or suspend an approved User’s access to the Platform.  In that case, the User will no longer have access to content on the Platform such as trade history, bids, offers and User information. The Company will not be responsible or liable to any losses, discomfort or otherwise caused to User due to such suspension or termination.    

10. Claw back 

Company shall have the right to initiate a “claw back” of any Security after the trade has settled, to correct for any technological or market irregularity resulting in an erroneous transaction. User will be notified of the clawback by the Company and will provide instructions and consent to the Company in order to communicate their instructions to the appropriate counterparties in order to facilitate the claw back. User acknowledges that this may result in funds and Securities being reconciled, removed and credited, as required, to unwind the trade. 

11. Conflicts of Interest 

Company may participate and receive compensation and fees from trades in which it is an intermediary for both the Buyer and the Seller.  The User acknowledges and accepts this conflict of interest and waives any and all claims otherwise resulting from it.
