Reference is hereby made to the Token Subscription Agreement (as available on the website https://tokensale.otonomos.com). Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Token Subscription Agreement.


OTON TOKENS MAY HAVE NO VALUE. PURCHASER MAY LOSE ALL AMOUNTS PAID.


Purchaser has carefully reviewed, acknowledges, understands and assumes the following risks, as well as all other risks associated with the OTON Tokens (including those not discussed herein), all of which could render the OTON Tokens worthless or of little value:

 

No Rights, Functionality or Features. OTON Tokens have no rights, uses, purpose, attributes, functionalities or features, express or implied.

  

Blockchain Delay Risk. On the Ethereum blockchain, timing of block production is determined by proof of work so block production can occur at random times. Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the Ethereum blockchain may not include the Purchaser’s transaction at the time Purchaser expects and Purchaser may not receive OTON Tokens the same day Purchaser sends ETH. Similar risks may also apply to other blockchain networks that may be accepted as means of payment for the OTON Tokens.


Ethereum Blockchain. The Ethereum blockchain is prone to periodic congestion during which transactions can be delayed or lost. Individuals may also intentionally spam the Ethereum network in an attempt to gain an advantage in purchasing cryptographic tokens. Purchaser acknowledges and understands that Ethereum block producers may not include Purchaser’s transaction when Purchaser wants or Purchaser’s transaction may not be included at all. Similar risks may also apply to other blockchain networks that may be accepted as means of payment for the OTON Tokens.

 

Limited Operating History. The Company is a newly formed entity with little or no operating history. The Company’s plans and projections may not prove accurate and the Company may not achieve its objective. Past performance of a company or its team is not predictive of future results.


Ability to Transact or Resell. Purchaser may be unable to sell or otherwise transact in OTON Tokens at any time, or for the price Purchaser paid. By purchasing OTON Tokens, Purchaser acknowledges, understands and agrees that: (a) OTON Tokens may have no value; (b) there is no guarantee or representation of liquidity for the OTON Tokens; and (c) the Company and its affiliates are not and shall not be responsible for or liable for the market value of OTON Tokens, the transferability and/or liquidity of OTON Tokens and/or the availability of any market for OTON Tokens through third parties or otherwise.

 

Token Security. OTON Tokens may be subject to expropriation and or/theft. Hackers or other malicious groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with the OTON 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 Ethereum platform rests on open source software and OTON Tokens are based on open source software, there is the risk that Ethereum smart contracts may contain intentional or unintentional bugs or weaknesses which may negatively affect the OTON Tokens or result in the loss of Purchaser’s OTON Tokens, the loss of Purchaser’s ability to access or control Purchaser’s OTON Tokens or the loss of ETH in Purchaser’s account. In the event of such a software bug or weakness, there may be no remedy and holders of OTON Tokens are not guaranteed any remedy, refund or compensation.

 

Access to Private Keys. OTON Tokens purchased by Purchaser may be held by Purchaser in Purchaser’s digital wallet or vault, which requires a private key, or a combination of private keys, for access. Accordingly, loss of requisite private key(s) associated with Purchaser’s digital wallet or vault storing OTON Tokens will result in loss of such OTON Tokens, access to Purchaser’s OTON Token balance and/or any initial balances in blockchains created by third parties. Moreover, any third party that gains access to such private key(s), including by gaining access to login credentials of a hosted wallet or vault service Purchaser uses, may be able to misappropriate Purchaser’s OTON Tokens. Company is not responsible for any such losses.

  

New Technology. The OTON Tokens and all of the matters set forth in the token issuer’s documentation in this regard are new and untested. The Company might not be capable of completion, implementation or adoption. Also, technology is changing rapidly, so the OTON Tokens and any tokens may become outdated.

 

Exchange & Counterparty Risks. If Purchaser chooses to maintain or hold OTON Tokens through a cryptocurrency exchange or other third party, Purchaser’s OTON Tokens may be stolen or lost. In addition, third parties may not recognize Purchaser’s claim to any derivative tokens if and when converted pursuant to the Token Rights Agreement.

   

Project Completion. The development of the Company’s project may be abandoned for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, lack of interest from the public, lack of funding, lack of commercial success or prospects, or departure of key personnel.


Forward-Looking Statements. The information the Company makes available to investors may contain "forward-looking statements". These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements often include words such as "anticipates," "estimates," "expects," "projects," "intends," "plans," "believes" and words and terms of similar substance in connection with discussions of future operating or financial performance. The Company’s forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations and assumptions regarding the Company’s business and performance, the economy and other future conditions and forecasts of future events, circumstances and results. As with any projection or forecast, forward-looking statements are inherently susceptible to error, uncertainty, and changes in circumstances. The Company’s actual results may vary materially from those expressed or implied in its forward-looking statements.

 

Lack of Interest. Even if the Company’s project is finished and adopted, its ongoing success of relies on the interest and participation of third parties. There can be no assurance or guarantee that there will be sufficient interest or participation of such third parties.

 

Uncertain Regulatory Framework. The regulatory status of cryptographic tokens, digital assets and blockchain technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. It is difficult to predict how or whether governmental authorities will regulate such technologies. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether any governmental authority may make changes to existing laws, regulations and/or rules that will affect cryptographic tokens, digital assets, blockchain technology and its applications. Such changes could negatively impact OTON Tokens in various ways, including, for example, through a determination that OTON Tokens are regulated financial instruments that require registration. Company may cease the distribution of OTON Tokens or cease operations in a jurisdiction in the event that governmental actions make it unlawful or commercially undesirable to continue to do so.


Changing Economic Conditions. The success of any investment activity is determined to some degree by general economic conditions. The availability, unavailability, or hindered operation of external credit markets, equity markets and other economic systems which the Company may depend on to achieve its objectives may have a significant negative impact on the Company’s operations. The stability and sustainability of growth in global economies (and as it relates to crypto-currencies, new and emerging decentralized economies) may be impacted by terrorism, acts of war, increased regulatory scrutiny and fragmentation, or a variety of other unpredictable events. There can be no assurance that such markets and economic systems will be available or will be available as anticipated or needed for an investment to be successful.

 

Risk of Government Action. As noted above, the industry in which Company operates is new, and may be subject to heightened oversight and scrutiny, including investigations or enforcement actions. There can be no assurance that governmental authorities will not examine the operations of Company and/or pursue enforcement actions against Company. Such governmental activities may or may not be the result of targeting the Company in particular. All of this may subject Company to judgments, settlements, fines or penalties, or cause Company to restructure its operations and activities or to cease offering certain products or services, all of which could harm Company’s reputation or lead to higher operational costs, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on the OTON Tokens.


The foregoing risks do not purport to be a complete explanation of all the risks involved. Each investor is urged to seek their own independent legal and tax advice and read the relevant investment documents before deciding to invest in the OTON Tokens.
