IN ACCEPTING THESE TERMS, YOU CONFIRM THAT YOU HAVE READ THEM CAREFULLY AND THAT, TO THE EXTENT ANYTHING IS UNCLEAR, YOU HAVE DISCUSSED THIS WITH US AND AN APPROPRIATE ADVISOR. YOU, THEREFORE, ACCEPT THAT YOU HAVE OBTAINED SUFFICIENT INFORMATION ABOUT THE TOKENS TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, YOU MAY NOT DEAL IN THE TOKENS AND MUST CEASE DOING SO IMMEDIATELY.

1. SCHEDULE ‎1

Token features

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE BELOW REPRESENTS OUR INTENTIONS FOR THE OPERATION OF THE TOKENS AS AT THE DATE OF THESE TERMS. HOWEVER, THERE MAY BE LEGAL, REGULATORY OR COMMERCIAL REASONS WHY THE TOKENS MAY DIFFER FROM THE BELOW.

Please note that the Company:

- has no obligation to give the Tokens any rights or attributes other than those outlined below, and the Tokens shall not give you any rights in relation to any aspect of any business conducted at any time by the Company.

- reserves the right to create new classes of fungible or non-fungible tokens under separate brands and with features outside of the scope of these Terms. Nothing in these Terms shall entitle you to have any rights (of whatever nature) in relation to such tokens.

Token Features

Tokens have the following features:

  1. Tokens have the following symbol: XELO.

  2. Tokens are issued on the Ethereum (ERC-20) blockchain.

  3. The total XELO supply will amount to 100,000,000,000 tokens to be released gradually over four years.

  4. The initial XELO final distribution is planned as follows: - 2% Early Sale (locked in your crypto wallet until 01 April 2024); - 5% Public Sale; - 5% Exchange Offering; - 45% User Rewards and Airdrops; - 15% Corporate Treasury and Liquidity Reserve; - 20% Team and Development; - 8% Marketing and Key Opinion Leaders.

  5. XELO is a utility token that its holder may only use to exchange for Solex.ai's products and services via the Platform. It does not represent a monetary claim on Solex.ai and does not create evidence of any obligation of Solex.ai to a tokenholder. Solex.ai has the right to deliver to a tokenholder its relevant products or services through the platform in exchange for XELO. Solex.ai does not assume any obligation to make payment in any fiat or cryptocurrency to a XELO holder in exchange for XELOs. For further information on the nature of the token, click here.

2. SCHEDULE 2

Certain Risks Relating to Tokens

Dealing in Tokens involves a high degree of risk, and, therefore, should be undertaken only if you are capable of evaluating the risks involved and able to bear the risks of a complete loss of all capital used to purchase and deal in Tokens.

You should carefully consider the risks described below and consult with your professional advisors before participating. It should be noted that the list of risk factors described hereunder is not intended to be exhaustive and does not necessarily include all of the risks to which the Company is or may be exposed to, nor are they all the risks associated with dealing in Tokens.

Important Note: As noted elsewhere in these Terms, the Tokens are not being structured or sold as securities nor any other form of regulated investment product. Accordingly, there has not been any consideration as to whether Tokens are a suitable or an appropriate thing for you to acquire. The Company Parties expressly disclaim any and all responsibility for any direct or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever arising directly or indirectly from: (i) reliance on any information contained in this Schedule 2, (ii) any error, omission or inaccuracy in any such information or (iii) any action resulting from such information.

By participant in these Terms, or by otherwise accepting, holding and / or using Tokens, you expressly acknowledge and assume the following risks, and the Company shall not be liable should they materialise:

1. Lack of operating history

Purchases of cryptoassets from start-ups, including Tokens from the Company, involve a high degree of risk. The value of Tokens is reliant on the success of the Company in developing its business. As such, Tokens have all of the risks and uncertainties normally associated with an early-stage business, including potential difficulties maintaining or operating the Platform, establishing the Company’s operations, lack of name recognition, lack of adequate capital to progress the business, difficulties hiring and retaining qualified employees, and difficulties in complying with all Applicable Laws. Financial and operational risks confronting start-ups are significant and the Company is not immune to these. The start-up market in which the Company competes is highly competitive, and the percentage of companies that survive and prosper is small.

The Company’s lack of an operating history may make it difficult for you to evaluate the Company’s business and long-term operating prospects and prospects of the Platform in connection with acquiring Tokens. These risks include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to: (i) increase revenues and manage costs relating to the Company’s operations, the development, launch and/or operations of the Platform, and the development of the Tokens; (ii) increase awareness of the Company, the Platform and Tokens; (iii) offer compelling content on the Platform; (iv) maintain current and develop new strategic relationships; (v) respond effectively to competitive pressures; (vi) continue to develop and upgrade technology; (vii) attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel; and (viii) raise any additional capital as potentially required. There are no assurances that the Company’s business strategy will be successful.

2. Risk of losing access to Tokens due to loss of private key(s) and wallet(s)

A private key, or a combination of private keys, is necessary to deal in Tokens. Accordingly, loss of requisite private key(s) associated with your 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.

Any errors or malfunctions caused by or otherwise related to the wallet you use to receive and store Tokens, including your own failure to properly maintain or use such wallet, may also result in the loss of your Tokens. Failure to precisely follow any procedures set forth by the Company for buying, transferring and receiving Tokens, including, for instance, providing an incorrect wallet address, or using wallet(s) that do not accept Tokens, may result in the loss of Tokens you hold.

3. Regulatory risks

Regulation of cryptoassets such as the Tokens, as well as blockchain technologies, and cryptoasset exchanges is currently underdeveloped and likely to rapidly evolve. Regulation varies significantly between different jurisdictions and is subject to significant uncertainty. Regulators may in the future adopt laws, regulations, guidance or other actions that may severely impact the development, operations and growth of the Platform and the adoption and utility of Tokens. Failure by the Company or the Platform to comply with any Applicable Laws, some of which may not exist yet or are subject to interpretation and may be subject to change, could result in a variety of adverse consequences, including civil penalties and fines, which could have an adverse effect on the development, launch and/or operations of the Platform and the development and eventual value of Tokens.

If the Company is required to obtain a licence, there is a risk that that entity may not be able to obtain it, either within a reasonable time period or at all, and the consequence of this will accordingly be to restrict the Company’s business and ability to support Tokens.

4. Legal proceedings and litigation

From time to time, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings or litigation. The results of such legal proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty and, regardless of the outcome, legal proceedings could have an adverse impact on the Company’s business or development, and that of the Platform, because of defence and settlement costs, diversion of resources, and other factors.

Generally, if third parties are successful in their claims, the Company may have to pay substantial damages, account for profits derived from the alleged infringing acts, and cease to use certain technologies or take other actions that could be detrimental to the Company’s business. If there is an intellectual property infringement claim, or to avoid such claims, the Company may be prohibited from selling or licensing to others any product that it may develop, unless the patent or copyright holder grants a license of the relevant intellectual property to the Company, which the patent or copyright holder is not obligated to do.

There also may be adverse publicity associated with litigation that could negatively affect people’s perception of the Company, the Platform and/or the Tokens, regardless of whether the allegations are valid or the Company is ultimately found liable. Accordingly, litigation may adversely affect the Company’s business and financial condition.

5. Risks associated with the blockchain protocol

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

6. Risk of hacking and software and security weaknesses

Hackers or other malicious groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with Tokens in a variety of ways, including malware attacks, denial of service attacks, consensus-based attacks, Sybil attacks, smurfing and spoofing, as well as attacks which overpower the consensus-based mechanism on which the blockchain in built and attacks which interfere with or otherwise cause nodes to malfunction (nodes are computers / hardware devices that help maintain the blockchain).

There is also an inherent risk that the software and related technologies and theories we use could contain Viruses. Viruses could cause, inter alia, complete loss of Tokens, or could negatively affect the Platform.

7. Risks associated with uncertain regulations and enforcement actions

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 Platform 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 Platform and the Tokens. Regulatory actions could negatively impact the Platform 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. The 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.

8. Risks associated with the Platform and Token features

The nature of the Platform means that it may undergo significant changes over time, and it may consist of a network of exchanges, or a specific dedicated exchange. Although the Company intends for the Tokens to follow the specifications set forth in these Terms, the Company may have to make changes to the specifications of the Tokens or Platform for any number of reasons. The Platform may therefore be subject to significant conceptual, technical and commercial changes. This could create the risk that the Platform or Tokens, as further updated and maintained, may not meet your expectations.

You furthermore understand and accept that as part of the deployment, changes to the Platform and Tokens may be required and that, if you decide not to participate in such changes, you may no longer use Tokens and that non-changed Tokens may lose their utility and / or value.

9. Risk of an unfavourable fluctuation of cryptoasset values

The Company intends to develop the Company’s business and deploy the Platform. Amounts received from Token holders may be converted into other cryptoassets or fiat currencies. If the value of cryptoassets or fiat currencies fluctuate unfavourably this may mean that the Company may not be able to fund business development and deployment as expected or may not be able to deploy the Platform in the manner it intended.

10. Risk of closure, changes or abandonment

It is possible that, due to any number of reasons, including technical, commercial, regulatory and other reasons (such as failure to comply with all Applicable Laws, failure develop the Tokens as expected, the failure of commercial relationships and / or intellectual property ownership challenges), the Company may not be able to develop and launch the Tokens or operate the Platform or the Company’s business as intended, and so the Company may dissolve or take actions that result the dissolution of the Platform.

The Company may have to make changes to the specifications of the Platform and/or the Tokens for any number of legitimate reasons, and the Company may be unable to develop the Platform and/or the Tokens in a way that successfully realizes those specifications. Whilst the Company intends to make significant investments to develop and launch a viable Platform, the Company may not have, or may not be able to obtain, the technical skills and expertise needed to successfully upgrade and maintain the Platform. If successfully developed and maintained, the Platform may not meet your expectations.

Furthermore, despite good faith efforts to maintain and update the Platform, it is still possible that the Platform will experience malfunctions or otherwise fail, and this may negatively impact the operation of the Platform and/or the Tokens and the public’s perception thereof.

More generally, you are aware of the risk that even if all or part of the Platform is successfully maintained, that the Platform could be fully or partially abandoned, be rendered commercially unsuccessful or otherwise be shut down because of a lack of interest, to comply with Applicable Law or for other reasons.

11. Liquidity risk

There is presently no established trading market for the Tokens. The Company can provide no assurance that an exchange will accept any attempted listing of the Tokens or maintain the listing if accepted, or that any trading market will be successfully developed or launched. Moreover, even if a market in Tokens is established, any such trading market may not be widely adopted, may have limited users, and could be subject to significant competition. As a result, the Company can provide no assurance as to the liquidity of the Tokens on any such market, and the value of the Tokens over time may experience extreme volatility or depreciate in full.

12. Intellectual property

Companies, organisations, or individuals, including competitors, may hold or obtain patents, trademarks, or other proprietary rights that would prevent, limit, or interfere with the Company’s ability to make, use, develop, sell, and / or market Tokens and / or the Platform, which could make it more difficult for the Company to operate its business. These third parties may have applied for, been granted, or obtained, patents that relate to intellectual property, and which compete with the Company’s intellectual property or technology. This may require the Company to develop or obtain alternative technology, or obtain appropriate licenses under these patents, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. Such a circumstance may result in the Company having to significantly increase development efforts and resources to redesign the technology in order to safeguard its competitive edge against competitors in the same industry. There is a risk that the Company’s means of protecting its intellectual property rights may not be adequate, and weaknesses or failures in this area could adversely affect the Company’s business or reputation, financial condition, and/or operating results, the development, launch and/or operations of the Platform and the development of Tokens.

From time to time, the Company may receive communications from holders of patents or trademarks regarding their proprietary rights. Companies holding patents or other intellectual property rights may bring suits alleging infringement of such rights or otherwise assert their rights and urge the Company to take licenses. In addition, if the Company is determined to have infringed upon a third party's intellectual property rights, it may be required to cease operating the Platform, pay substantial damages, seek a license from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right, which license may not be available on reasonable terms or at all, and/or establish and maintain alternative branding for items relating to the Platform. The Company may also need to file lawsuits to protect its intellectual property rights from infringement from third parties, which could be expensive, time consuming, and distract management's attention from our core operations.

The Company’s ability to serve its customers and the Platform’s participants will depend upon its intellectual property. The Company will rely on copyright, trade secret and trademark laws, trade secret protection, and confidentiality or license agreements with its employees, customers, and other third parties to protect the Company’s intellectual property rights. However, the steps the Company takes to protect its intellectual property rights may be inadequate. In order to protect its intellectual property rights, the Company may be required to spend significant resources to monitor and protect these rights. Litigation brought to protect and enforce the Company’s intellectual property rights could be costly, time-consuming and distracting to management and could result in the impairment or loss of portions of the Company’s intellectual property. Furthermore, the Company’s efforts to enforce the Company’s intellectual property rights may be met with defences, counterclaims, and countersuits attacking the validity and enforceability of the Company’s intellectual property rights. The Company’s failure to secure, protect, and enforce the Company’s intellectual property rights could seriously harm the Platform’s brand and adversely affect the Company’s business, reputation, financial condition, and/or operating results, the development, launch and/or operations of the Platform and the development of Tokens.

13. No management rights in the Company

Holders of Tokens will have no voting rights or other management or control rights in the Company by virtue of the Tokens, and, consequently, the purchase of the Tokens does not carry with it any right to take part in the control or management of the Company’s business. Accordingly, the Company’s directors and shareholders who hold voting shares will control the Company’s decisions, including those relating to the development, launch and operations of the Platform and the development of Tokens. Holders of Tokens will have no influence or vote on any corporate matters, and the voting shareholders and directors may take actions of which a majority of holders of Tokens disapprove. In assessing the risks and rewards of dealing in Tokens, you must be aware that you are relying solely on the good faith, judgment and ability of the Company’s directors, officers and employees to make appropriate decisions with respect to the Company’s management, development, launch and/or operations of the Platform and the development of the Tokens.

14. Tokens have no refund rights or similar features

After issuance, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law you will have no right to return your Tokens to the Company or any other Company Party or to receive a refund or otherwise require the Company or any other Company Party to exchange Tokens for a certain amount of fiat currency. As a result, if there is not sufficient demand or interest in the Platform and Tokens, or if there are limits on the transferability of, or limited liquidity for, the Tokens, then you may lose all or a portion of your funds spent on Tokens purchase.

15. Reliance on discretion of the Company’s management for the deployment of capital

The Company’s management will have sole discretion over the use of the proceeds received as a result of any offering of Tokens. You will be relying on the Company’s management to identify, structure, and implement the Platform in accordance with the Company’s objectives and policies and to conduct the business of the Platform as contemplated by these Terms.

16. Future sales of Tokens and other types of token

Sales, or the possibility of sales, by the Company of a substantial number of Tokens or additional types of token could have an adverse effect on the value of Tokens or could affect the Company’s ability to obtain further capital. In addition, in exchange for services in connection with the development, marketing and operation of the Platform, the Company may sell further Tokens or different types of token to various third parties. Any such additional issuance of Tokens could dilute your percentage interest in then-outstanding Tokens, if any, and have an adverse effect on the market value of the Tokens. Additional new types of token may also impact the value of your Tokens, and you have no rights in relation to such new types of token as a result of entering into these Terms.

17. Further funding

The Company reserves the right to obtain further funding, including from venture capitalists, in order to finance operations in general and including, but not limited to, developing the Platform. Obtaining this funding may impact the way in which the Platform is developed and may have a consequential impact on the value of the Tokens.

18. The prices of digital assets are extremely volatile

Fluctuations in the price of digital assets could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business and the Platform, and Tokens may also be subject to significant price volatility.

The prices of cryptoassets have historically been subject to dramatic fluctuations and are highly volatile, and the market price of the Tokens may also be highly volatile. Several factors may influence the market price, if any, of Tokens, including, but not limited to:

· the ability (if any) of Tokens to trade on a secondary market;

· global digital asset and token supply;

· global digital asset and token demand, which can be influenced by the growth of retail merchants’ and commercial businesses’ acceptance of cryptoassets, the security of online digital asset exchanges and digital wallets that hold digital assets, the perception that the use and holding of digital assets is safe and secure, and the regulatory restrictions on their use;

· general expectations with respect to the rate of inflation, interest rates and exchange rates;

· changes in the software, software requirements or hardware requirements underlying Tokens;

· changes in the rights, obligations, incentives, or rewards for the various holders of Tokens;

· interruptions in service from or failures of major digital asset and token exchanges on which digital assets and Tokens are traded;

· investment and trading activities of large purchasers, including private and registered funds, that may directly or indirectly invest in Tokens or other digital assets;

· monetary policies of governments, trade restrictions, currency devaluations and revaluations;

· regulatory measures, if any, that affect the use of cryptoassets and changes in Applicable Law;

· global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations; and

· expectations among digital assets participants that the value of Tokens or digital assets generally will soon change.

A decrease in the price of a single digital asset may cause volatility in the entire digital asset and token industry and may affect other digital assets including the Tokens. For example, a security breach that affects purchaser or user confidence in Bitcoin or Ether may affect the industry as a whole and may also cause the price of the Tokens and other digital assets to fluctuate. Such volatility in the price of the Tokens may result in significant loss over a short period of time.

19. Purchasers may lack information for monitoring their Tokens

You may not be able to obtain all information you want from time to time regarding the Company, the Platform and/or the Tokens. Even if you do receive such information, you may not receive it on a timely basis. It is possible that you may not be aware of materially adverse changes that have occurred with respect to the Company, the Platform and / or Tokens in a timely manner. As a result of these difficulties, as well as other uncertainties, you may not have accurate or accessible information relating to your purchase, which could prevent you from taking actions with the potential to prevent adverse consequences relating to your holding of Tokens.

20. Tokens may not be classified as unregulated Tokens

Although we intend for Tokens to be classified as unregulated tokens, the regulatory position of cryptoassets is uncertain and subject to change. This may, at a later date, cause us to classify Tokens as a security, in which case Tokens may be subject to restrictions on resale and transfer.

21. General economic risks

Please be aware that the value of the Tokens can fall as well as rise. If you buy Tokens, you may not get back the full amount you spent on them, or anything at all. The value of Tokens may depend on fluctuations in the financial markets, or other economic factors, which are outside our control. The past performance of other cryptoassets is not necessarily a guide to the future performance of Tokens.

22. Unanticipated risks

Cryptoassets such as the Tokens are a relatively new and untested technology. In addition to the risks included in this Schedule ‎2, there are other risks associated with your acceptance, holding and use of Tokens, including those that we cannot reasonably foresee.

Additional risks may also materialize as unanticipated variations or combinations of the risks discussed above in this Schedule.
