Please read carefully these Terms and Conditions before using the Website or accepting the Contracoin Tokens (CTCN), as they may affect your obligations and legal rights, including, but not limited to, waivers of rights and limitation of liability in connection with using the Website and accepting CTCN Tokens. If you participate in the Token Sale you agree to accept the Terms and Conditions. Buyer understands and agrees that Buyer is subject to and bound by this Agreement by virtue of Buyer’s purchase of CTCN Tokens. This Agreement shall be effective and binding on the Parties when Buyer clicks the check box to indicate that Buyer has read, understands and agrees to the terms of this Agreement and successfully submits the KYC / Token Sale Registration form on the Website. Buyer agrees to be bound on this basis, and confirms that Buyer has read in full and understands this Agreement and the terms on which Buyer is bound.

The Tokens (as described in the Whitepaper) are not intended to constitute securities in any jurisdiction.

The Whitepaper does not constitute a prospectus or offering document of any sort and is not intended to constitute an offer of securities or a solicitation for investment in securities in any jurisdiction. The Whitepaper does not constitute or form part of any opinion or any advice to sell, or any solicitation of any offer by the distributor or issuer of the Tokens to purchase any Tokens nor shall it, or any part of it, nor the fact of its presentation, form the basis of or be relied upon in connection with any contract or investment decision.

No person is bound to enter into any contract or binding legal commitment in relation to the sale and purchase of the Tokens.

Any agreement relating to the potential sale and purchase of Tokens is to be governed by such other agreement or document as Contracoin may require and no other document (including the Whitepaper). If there is any inconsistency between the agreement or document and the Whitepaper, the agreement or document shall govern.

No regulatory authority has examined or approved of any of the information set out in the Whitepaper. No such action has been or will be taken under the laws, regulatory requirements or rules of any jurisdiction. The publication, distribution or dissemination of the Whitepaper does not imply that any such applicable laws, regulatory requirements or rules have been complied with.

There are material risks and uncertainties associated with Contracoin, its business and operations, the Tokens, including that any Token sale may not occur or the Tokens may not be issued.

The Whitepaper, any part thereof and any copy thereof must not be taken or transmitted to any country where distribution or dissemination of the Whitepaper or the Tokens sale is prohibited or restricted.

No part of the Website or Whitepaper is to be reproduced, distributed or disseminated without including this section and the following sections entitled “Disclaimer of Liability”, “No Representations and Warranties”, “Representations and Warranties by the User”, “Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements”, “No Advice”, “Restrictions on Distribution and Dissemination”, “No Offer of Securities or Registration” and “Risks and Uncertainties”.

DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable laws, regulatory requirements or rules, Contracoin and its affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, consequential or other losses of any kind, in tort, contract or otherwise (including but not limited to loss of revenue, income or profits, and loss of use or data), arising out of or in connection with any acceptance of or reliance on the Whitepaper or any part thereof by you.

A private key, or a combination of private keys, is necessary to control and dispose of Contracoin Tokens stored in your Ethereum digital wallet or vault. Accordingly, loss of requisite private key(s) associated with your Ethereum digital wallet or vault storing Contracoin Tokens will result in loss of such Tokens. Moreover, any third party that gains access to such private key(s), including by gaining access to login credentials of a hosted wallet service you use, may be able to misappropriate your Tokens.

Because Tokens and the Network are based on the Ethereum protocol, any malfunction, breakdown or abandonment of the Ethereum protocol may have a material adverse effect on the Network or Tokens. Moreover, advances in cryptography, or technical advances such as the development of quantum computing, could present risks to the Tokens and the Network by rendering ineffective the cryptographic consensus mechanism that underpins the Ethereum protocol.

Hackers or other malicious groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with the Network or the Contracoin Tokens in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, malware attacks, denial of service attacks, consensus-based attacks, Sybil attacks, smurfing and spoofing. Furthermore, because the Network is based on open-source software, there is a risk that a third party or a member of the Company may intentionally or unintentionally introduce weaknesses into the core infrastructure of the Network, which could negatively affect the Network and the Contracoin Tokens.

The regulatory status of the Tokens and distributed ledger technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. It is difficult to predict how or whether regulatory agencies may apply existing regulation with respect to such technology and its applications, including the Network and the Tokens. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether legislatures or regulatory agencies may implement changes to law and regulation affecting distributed ledger technology and its applications, including the Network and the Tokens. Regulatory actions could negatively impact the Network and the Tokens in various ways, including, for purposes of illustration only, through a determination that Tokens are a regulated financial instrument that require registration or licensing. Company may cease operations in a jurisdiction in the event that regulatory actions, or changes to law or regulation, make it illegal to operate in such jurisdiction, or commercially undesirable to obtain the necessary regulatory approval(s) to operate in such jurisdiction.

The Network will be updated and may undergo significant changes over time. Although we intend for the Tokens and Network to follow the specifications set forth in the Whitepaper, and will take commercially reasonable steps toward those ends, we may have to make changes to the specifications of the Tokens or Network for any number of reasons. This could create the risk that the Tokens or Network, as further updated and maintained, may not meet your expectations. Furthermore, despite our good faith efforts to update and maintain the Network, it is still possible that the Network will experience malfunctions or otherwise fail to be adequately updated or maintained, which may negatively impact the Network and Tokens.
