# PrimeUSD

PrimeUSD is a permissioned, yield-bearing vault token issued by Vault Street. It is designed for institutional participants seeking on-chain exposure to a leveraged short-duration investment grade fixed income strategy, with daily NAV accrual, and a permissioned circulation model with KYB-gated deposits, transfers, and withdrawals.

#### Strategy Description

The primeUSD vault pursues a leveraged carry strategy.

The vault deploys USDC into a collateral basket of tokenised investment grade fixed income assets — including T-Bill money market funds and AAA-rated CLO funds — uses those positions as collateral to borrow at competitive DeFi market rates, and deploys the proceeds back into the same collateral basket, building a leveraged position where the return on assets exceeds the cost of borrowing.

#### Risks

|                               |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
| ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Interest rate risk            | The yield you receive depends on the spread between what the Vault earns (returns on investment grade fixed income assets) and DeFi borrowing rates (what it pays). These move independently. If borrowing costs rise or collateral yields fall, the net yield compresses — and can turn negative, eroding your deposit.                                   |
| Stablecoin de-peg risk        | The Vault borrows stablecoins that are designed to maintain a 1:1 USD peg but may deviate. Even small deviations affect the Vault's effective cost of borrowing and net return. The Vault’s Stability Buffer is designed to smooth short-term fluctuations but does not guarantee stable distributions.                                                    |
| Credit risk                   | Part of assets are ultimately allocated into structured credit instruments, such as collateralized loan obligations rated AAA by major credit rating agencies. Unlike T-Bills, these are corporate credit rather than government debt. In credit stress, or market liquidity shortage environment, their market value can fall, reducing collateral value. |
| Leverage and liquidation risk | The Vault uses up to 10x leverage. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses. If collateral values fall — due to de-peg events, rate moves, credit spread widening, or protocol parameter changes — positions may be force-liquidated at market prices, potentially resulting in a loss of principal.                                                       |
| Fund wrapper risk             | Collateral is held as tokenised interests in underlying funds (T-Bill money market funds and investment grade fixed income funds). If an underlying fund imposes redemption gates or suspends withdrawals, those positions may become temporarily illiquid, which could delay or reduce your redemption.                                                   |
| Protocol risk                 | DeFi lending protocols can change their risk parameters — loan-to-value limits, collateral eligibility, liquidation thresholds — without notice. Such changes may force rapid deleveraging at unfavourable prices.                                                                                                                                         |
| No guaranteed return          | The Vault does not guarantee any yield, and past performance is not indicative of future results. You may receive less than you deposited, up to a total loss.                                                                                                                                                                                             |


# CARRY

CARRY is a permissioned, yield-bearing vault token issued by Vault Street. It is designed for eligible participants seeking on-chain exposure to a diversified higher-yield portfolio, with USDC-denominated subscriptions and redemptions and a permissioned circulation model with KYB-gated deposits, transfers, and withdrawals.

#### Risks

|                                            |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  |
| ------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Interest rate risk                         | The yield you receive depends on the spread between what the Vault earns (returns on its underlying credit and market-neutral assets) and DeFi borrowing rates (what it pays). These move independently. If borrowing costs rise or collateral yields fall, the net yield compresses — and can turn negative, eroding your deposit.                                                                                                                                              |
| Stablecoin de-peg risk                     | The Vault borrows stablecoins that are designed to maintain a 1:1 USD peg but may deviate. Even small deviations affect the Vault's effective cost of borrowing and net return. The Vault may also interact with assets described as "USD-neutral", where any deviation from $1, whether from a failed hedge, insufficient collateral or market stress, affects the Vault's value directly.                                                                                      |
| Leverage and liquidation risk              | The Vault uses up to 4x leverage. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses. If collateral values fall — due to de-peg events, rate moves, or protocol parameter changes — positions may be force-liquidated at market prices, potentially resulting in a loss of principal.                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
| Excluded-asset and deferred repayment risk | The Company may designate an impaired position as an Excluded Asset, immediately reducing the Vault's NAV. If you redeem thereafter you receive the reduced value, while the portion of your claim tied to the Excluded Asset becomes a Deferred Amount, payable only if and when that position is realised, which may be after a long delay or never.                                                                                                                           |
| Fund wrapper risk                          | Exposures are held as tokenised interests in underlying funds and facilities, which may rank behind other creditors in the event of the relevant issuer's insolvency and may impose gates or suspend withdrawals. Combined with the Vault's monthly redemption cycle, this may cause redemptions to be delayed, gated or suspended in periods of stress.                                                                                                                         |
| Credit risk                                | A substantial portion of assets is allocated to unrated private credit, including facilities to trading firms, trade receivables, home equity lines, payment-financing receivables and hardware-collateralised credit. Such exposures are largely unsecured or secured on volatile assets. A default, fraud, or credit deterioration may result in a permanent loss of principal, with potentially minimal recovery. Diversification mitigates but does not eliminate this risk. |
| Protocol risk                              | DeFi lending protocols can change their risk parameters — loan-to-value limits, collateral eligibility, liquidation thresholds — without notice. Such changes may force rapid deleveraging at unfavourable prices.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
| No guaranteed return                       | The Vault does not guarantee any yield, and past performance is not indicative of future results. You may receive less than you deposited, up to a total loss.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |


# Eligibility and Onboarding

Vault Street vaults require identity verification of users. Only addresses that have been approved following KYC/KYB verification can hold, send, or receive primeUSD and CARRY.

To apply for access, fill out a form: <https://vaultstreet.typeform.com/allowlist>


# Deposits and Withdrawals

### Deposits

Deposits are made in USDC. To make a deposit:

1. Submit a request via web application of Vault Street
2. The request is screened before execution
3. Once completed, vault token is issued to your allowlist address at the price effective as of the deposit request time

### Withdrawals

Redemptions for both CARRY and primeUSD are processed in USDC.

1. Submit a withdrawal request via the Vault Street web application. Your vault tokens are debited from your address at that moment.
2. The request is screened before execution.
3. Once completed, USDC is issued to your allowlist address.

#### primeUSD

The vault maintains a redemption buffer of at least 10% in liquid assets, shared across all participants. Withdrawals are typically serviced from this pool and targeted to complete within 24 hours, for aggregate redemptions up to 10% of TVL.

Withdrawals that exceed the buffer or require strategy unwinding are subject to a 5 business day execution window. For larger withdrawals, contact the team ahead of execution to coordinate timing.

#### CARRY

Express withdrawals, for aggregate redemptions up to 10% of NAV in the relevant calendar month, are serviced on a best efforts basis by the next business day, subject to available liquidity.

Standard withdrawals follow a monthly cycle: requests must be submitted by 00:00 UTC on the 27th. Settlement is targeted for the 5th business day of the following month and may be extended by up to 20 business days depending on liquidity conditions.

{% hint style="info" %}
Note: redemption buffers/liquidity pools are shared across all participants of each vault. In periods of elevated redemption activity, queue position affects timing.

# Staked RESOLV Token (stRESOLV)

$stRESOLV token allows its holders to participate in the governance of Resolv and Vault Street.

Long-term holders of $RESOLV can gradually increase the multiplier of their staking rewards, subject to a maximum of 2x multiplier available to users with an average holding period of $stRESOLV of 1 year or more.&#x20;

## How Do I Get stRESOLV?

$stRESOLV cannot be bought, it can only be obtained by converting $RESOLV to $stRESOLV (staking) or by receiving it from another wallet.

Holders of $stRESOLV can convert it to $RESOLV (unstaking) via the user interface. $RESOLV tokens are transferable and are expected to be traded.

## Where Can I See $stRESOLV Rewards?

Staking rewards are regularly deployed into the staking contract (updated every 14 days). $stRESOLV holders continuously accrue their *Rewards* balance every minute.

## APR Calculation for Resolv Staking

1. **rewardRate**

* Defined for each epoch as:

$$
\text{rewardRate} = \frac{\text{USD value}}{\text{duration}}
$$

* *USD value*: Total USD value of tokens allocated to the epoch. Includes $RESOLV tokens and Partnership reward tokens.
* *duration*: Length of the epoch in seconds (14 days by default).

2. **periodFinish**

The timestamp when the current epoch ends and the *rewardRate* resets to zero.

3. **totalEffectiveSupply**

* The total USD value of staked tokens, including delegated and boosted amounts.

### APR Formula

The APR calculation uses the *rewardRate* (tokens per second) and *totalEffectiveSupply* (USD value):

$$
\text{APR} = \frac{\text{rewardRate} \times 31,536,000}{\text{totalEffectiveSupply}}
$$

* 31,536,000 represents the number of seconds in one year
* If the current time is at or after *periodFinish*, then rewardRate = 0 and APR = 0.

***

This formula calculates the annualized percentage yield based on the current per-second reward rate and total staked supply, expressed as a fraction of supply per year.

## How Does the Staking Multiplier Work?

The multiplier is based on how long you have staked $RESOLV tokens. It only updates when you interact with the contract, like staking more or claiming rewards. New deposits may slightly lower it, as they count as newly staked.

For more details, check the [Staking Multiplier Page](/resolv-token/staking-multiplier).

## How Do I Withdraw/Unstake?

$stRESOLV cannot be traded directly. To trade it, you have to unstake $stRESOLV to $RESOLV. This can be done on the Resolv page.

## Unstaking and Exit fees

Resolv doesn’t take any fees on unstaking.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Unstaking initializes a 14-day cooldown, after which the user manually claims tokens. New unstaking during the cooldown resets the timer for the entire amount.
{% endhint %}

## Check Your Remaining Time to Unstake $stRESOLV

Once you confirm the unstaking, you can check the remaining date to unstake your $stRESOLV token at the bottom of the stake form.

After the cooldown ends, you will see a “Claim” button near the cooldown amount. Click on it to release unstaked $RESOLV tokens to your wallet.

Unstaking initializes a 14-day cooldown, after which the user manually claims tokens. New unstaking during the cooldown resets the timer for the entire amount.

## $stRESOLV Transferability

The $**stRESOLV tokens** can be transferred from one wallet to another.

### How the $stRESOLV transfer feature works:

* A transfer from User 1 → User 2 is processed as if User 1 performs a *staking withdrawal* and User 2 performs a *staking deposit*.
* As a result, the [Average Holding Period](https://docs.vaultstreet.com/resolv-token/pages/OJxhGkxtOiLd9MQk2W7u#reward-model.-average-holding-period-multiplier) in the Staking Multiplier is recalculated every time a transfer occurs.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
The recipient's multiplier will be reset or reduced because of the [Average Holding Period](https://docs.vaultstreet.com/resolv-token/pages/OJxhGkxtOiLd9MQk2W7u#reward-model.-average-holding-period-multiplier) recalculation.
{% endhint %}

## Resolv Governance

# Staking Multiplier

Detailed description of the $RESOLV staking multiplier

The multiplier is based on how long you’ve staked $RESOLV tokens. It only updates when you interact with the contract, like staking more or claiming rewards. New deposits may slightly lower it, as they count as newly staked.

$RESOLV tokens are staked in a liquid, non‑term-escrowed vault. Unstaking is permissionless but subject to a fixed 14‑day cooldown.

## Staking & Unstaking Workflows

{% hint style="warning" %}
Claiming staking rewards will open together with the token listing, so that users are able to claim rewards on the day trading begins.
{% endhint %}

### **Staking**

Users deposit $RESOLV (via a frontend interface) and receive $stRESOLV. Staking is atomic and permissionless.

### **Unstaking**

Users trigger an unstake, which is subject to a 14‑day cooldown. Once the cooldown elapses, the staked tokens are returned, and the corresponding $stRESOLV is burned.

## Rewards Distribution

* **Epochs:**

  Rewards are allocated in consecutive 14‑day epochs.
* **Reward Types:**

  Rewards include $RESOLV and, potentially, other tokens.
* **Allocation:**

  Each user’s reward share is based on their $stRESOLV holding *and* how long the tokens have been staked.

## Reward Model. Average holding period multiplier

Allocation of staking rewards to each holder of $stRESOLV depends on the period during which it has been holding tokens. Long-term holders have a multiplier of up to 2x on their rewards as compared to users who started staking recently.\
The multiplier is updated for future reward accrual when a user interacts with the staking contract. Rewards accrued in the past are computed using the effective balance as it was then. When a user deposits or withdraws $RESOLV, or collects staking rewards, the contract updates effective multiplier for all future rewards.

This approach avoids retroactive recalculation. It works as follows:

### Key Concepts

1. **Raw Stake (X):**

   The number of tokens the user currently has staked.
2. **Accumulated Age (A):**

   The total “token–seconds” the user’s stake has been held. For example, if a user stakes 50 tokens for 1 day (86,400 seconds), the accumulated age is

$$
A = 50 \times 86{,}400 = 4{,}320{,}000 \text{ token–seconds}.
$$

3. **Weighted Average Holding Period (WAHP):**

   The average age per token, calculated as

$$
\text{WAHP} = \frac{A}{X}.
$$

4. **Boost Factor:**

   The boost factor rewards users for holding tokens longer. It is computed (in a fixed‑point manner) as

$$
\text{boostFactor} = \min!\Bigl(1 + \text{WAHP in years},, 2\Bigr).
$$

(For example, if WAHP in years is 0.0192, then the boost factor is 1.0192x.)

5. **Effective Balance:**

   The “effective balance” used for rewards is the raw stake multiplied by the boost factor:

$$
\text{effectiveBalance} = X \times \text{boostFactor}
$$

This is the value that determines each user’s share of the rewards.

6. **Global Effective Supply:**

   The sum of the effective balances of all users. Rewards are distributed in proportion to each user’s effective balance compared to this global total.

## How Deposits and Withdrawals Affect WAHP

### Deposits

* **Before a New Deposit:**

  The user’s tokens have been accumulating age. For example, if a user deposited 50 tokens and held them for 1 day, the accumulated age is 4,320,000 token–seconds, and the average age per token is 86,400 seconds (1 day).
* **When New Tokens are Deposited:**

  The new tokens start with a minimal baseline age (1 second per token).

  * The overall new raw stake becomes the sum of the old stake plus the new deposit.
  * The new total accumulated age becomes the old accumulated age plus the baseline age for the new tokens.
  * The new average age (WAHP) is then

$$
\text{avgAge}\_{\text{new}} = \frac{\text{old accumulated age} + \text{(new deposit baseline age)}}{\text{old stake} + \text{new deposit}}.
$$

* Since the new tokens contribute a very small age, the overall average is “diluted” compared to if the old tokens had continued to accumulate.
* This diluted average age is used to compute a new boost factor (which will be lower than if all tokens had been held for longer) and, in turn, a new effective balance.

### Withdrawals

* **When Tokens Are Withdrawn:**

  The user’s raw stake decreases. Weighted average holding period is not affected.

* **For example:**

  Suppose a user has 100 tokens with a total accumulated age of 1,000,000 token–seconds (so an average of 10,000 seconds per token). If the user withdraws 40 tokens, the new raw stake becomes 60 tokens. To maintain the same average age (10,000 seconds), the new total accumulated age should be:

$$
A\_{\text{new}} = 1{,}000{,}000 \times \frac{60}{100} = 600{,}000 \text{ token–seconds.}
$$

Thus, the weighted average holding period does not change.

## Staking reward allocation example

<details>

<summary>Example</summary>

Let’s consider a two-user scenario over a 14‑day reward period with 140 reward tokens allocated in total (10 tokens per day).

#### Initial Deposits (Day 0)

* **UserA:** Deposits 2000 tokens
  * Raw stake = 2000
  * Accumulated age = 0 (just deposited)
  * Effective balance = 2000 (multiplier = 1)
* **UserB:** Deposits 500 tokens
  * Raw stake = 500
  * Accumulated age = 0
  * Effective balance = 500
* **Global effective supply:** 2000 + 500 = 2500

#### After 7 Days (Before Additional Deposit)

Time elapsed = 7 days = 604,800 seconds.

* **UserA:**

  * The 2000 tokens accumulate:

  $$A\_{A} = 2000 \times 604{,}800 = 1{,}209{,}600{,}000 \text{ token–seconds.}$$

  * Average age

  $$1,209,600,000 / 2000 = 604,800 seconds (7 days).$$&#x20;

  * Boost factor

  * Effective balance

    $$2000 \times 1.0192 \approx 2038.4$$
* **UserB:**
  * Still has 500 tokens with no checkpoint update, so effective balance remains 500.
* **Global effective supply at Day 7:**

  Approximately 2038.4 + 500 = 2538.4.

*Rewards for day 0–7 (70 tokens) are theoretically allocated proportionally (UserA \~56 tokens; UserB \~14 tokens) but remain unclaimed.*

#### Additional Deposit by UserA at Day 7

UserA deposits an extra 500 tokens at day 7.

* **Before Deposit for UserA:**
  * Raw stake = 2000
  * Accumulated age = 1,209,600,000 token–seconds
  * Average age = 604,800 seconds.
* **New Deposit:** 500 tokens, with a baseline age of 1 second per token → adds 500 token–seconds.
* **After Deposit:**
  * New raw stake = 2000 + 500 = 2500 tokens.
  * New total accumulated age

    $$1,209,600,000 + 500 = 1,209,600,500 token–seconds.$$
  * New average age =

    $$\frac{1,209,600,500}{2500} \approx 483,840.2 \text{ seconds (≈5.6 days)}.$$
* **New Boost Factor for UserA:**
  * Convert 483,840 seconds to years:

    $$\frac{483,840}{31,536,000} \approx 0.01535.$$
  * Boost factor

    $$1 + 0.01535 \approx 1.01535.$$
* **New Effective Balance for UserA:**

  $$2500 \times 1.01535 \approx 2538.38 \text{ tokens effective.}$$
* **Global effective supply after UserA’s deposit:**

  UserA: ≈ 2538.38

  UserB: still 500 (since UserB is stale)

  Total ≈ 3038.38 effective tokens.

#### Reward Distribution Over 14 Days

Total reward tokens = 140.

#### Day 0–7 Allocation:

* Global effective supply (based on checkpoints at day 7) was 2500.
* UserA’s share (about 56 tokens):

  $$2000 / 2500 \approx 80%$$
* UserB’s share (about 14 tokens):

  $$500 / 2500 \approx 20%$$

#### Day 7–14 Allocation (after UserA’s additional deposit):

* Global effective supply now is approximately 3038.38.
* UserA’s effective balance is now ≈ 2538.38.
* UserB remains at 500.
* Fraction for UserA (58.45 tokens):

$$2538.38 / 3038.38 \approx 83.5%$$

* Fraction for UserB (11.55 tokens):

$$500 / 3038.38 \approx 16.5%$$

**Total Rewards over 14 Days:**

* **UserA:**

  Day 0–7: \~56 tokens

  Day 7–14: \~58.45 tokens

  Total ≈ 114.45 tokens.
* **UserB:**

  Day 0–7: \~14 tokens

  Day 7–14: \~11.55 tokens

  Total ≈ 25.55 tokens.

Thus, by the end of the 14‑day period, the 140 reward tokens are distributed approximately as **114.45 tokens** to **UserA** and **25.55 tokens** to **UserB**.

### 5.  The Services <a href="#id-1p96vdnq88nw" id="id-1p96vdnq88nw"></a>

### Vault Offerings <a href="#jvglddavxsgb" id="jvglddavxsgb"></a>

The Services enable eligible Users to lend Loaned Assets to one or more Vaults operated by the Company. Each Vault is governed by these Terms together with the applicable Vault Schedule, which sets out the Vault-specific parameters including eligible underlying investments, accepted Loaned Assets, and Vault-specific risk factors. Upon a User making a successful loan to a Vault, the Protocol mints and issues a Receipt Token representing the User’s proportional claim on the Vault Pool attributable to that Vault. Users can withdraw their Loaned Assets (and, if applicable, any net yield accrued) subject to the mechanics, conditions, and limited recourse provisions of these Terms and the relevant Vault Schedule (including withdrawal waiting periods). The value of a Receipt Token, including the generation of yield or returns for Users, is not guaranteed and is subject to market, protocol-related, and strategy-specific risks as further described herein.

#### Non-Custodial Offering <a href="#id-69rgg7qodipu" id="id-69rgg7qodipu"></a>

The Services are, at all times, strictly non-custodial. The User acknowledges and agrees that any digital assets loaned to the Vault (Loaned Assets) pursuant to this Agreement are transferred by way of full title transfer, such that all legal and beneficial ownership therein vests in the Company upon receipt in the Vault. The User agrees that the Company does not provide custodial, fiduciary, or safekeeping services in respect of the Loaned Assets. The User’s rights in respect of the Loaned Assets are strictly limited recourse. The Company’s obligation to return value to the User arises solely upon a valid withdrawal request and is limited in amount to the User’s proportional share of the assets then held in or attributable to the Vault’s collateral pool (the “Vault Pool”), net of any applicable fees, costs and prior-ranking obligations, and subject always to Section 6. The Company gives no guarantee that the Vault Pool will at any time equal or exceed the aggregate value of Loaned Assets deposited. If the value of the Vault Pool at the time of a withdrawal request is less than the corresponding Loaned Asset value (including due to strategy losses, de-pegs, liquidation events or other adverse outcomes), the User will receive only its pro-rata share of the Vault Pool and shall have no further claim against the Company or its assets in respect of any shortfall. The User acknowledges that the value of a Receipt Token, and any yield represented therein, is solely a function of the performance of the Vault Pool and is not a guaranteed fixed return.

#### Compulsory Redemption; Cessation of Operations

The Company may, at any time and in its sole discretion, by notice to a User via the Platform (a "Compulsory Redemption Notice"), require a User to redeem some or all of the Receipt Tokens held by that User in respect of any Vault. The Company may exercise this right for any reason including, without limitation, compliance with applicable Law, sanctions requirements, breach of these Terms by the User, or regulatory considerations.

Upon delivery of a Compulsory Redemption Notice, the User shall be deemed to have submitted an irrevocable redemption request in respect of the specified Receipt Tokens, to be effected at the NAV per Receipt Token determined in accordance with Section 6 as at the first Valuation Point falling on or after the date of that notice, or at such later Valuation Point as the Company may specify in the notice. From that Valuation Point the specified Receipt Tokens cease to carry any entitlement to participate in the profits, losses or assets of the relevant Vault Pool, any fee that would otherwise have crystallised in respect of them crystallises and is deducted, and the User's rights are limited to payment of the redemption proceeds so determined, subject always to the limited recourse and extinguishment provisions of these Terms. Where the Vault Pool includes an Excluded Asset at that Valuation Point, the User remains entitled to its Deferred Amount in accordance with Section 6 and receives no value in respect of that Excluded Asset on the compulsory redemption.

A compulsory redemption is not subject to any cut-off time, notice period, minimum redemption amount, gate, express redemption capacity, or dealing or settlement timetable specified in the relevant Vault Schedule. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to process a compulsory redemption within a reasonable period following the relevant Valuation Point, subject to the limited recourse provisions herein.

Redemption proceeds are payable in the applicable Loaned Asset to the wallet address from which the specified Receipt Tokens are redeemed, or to such other Approved Address as the Company may determine. Where the Company determines, in its reasonable opinion, that payment would or may breach, or expose the Company or any of its affiliates to liability, penalty or sanction under, any applicable Law, the Company may withhold the proceeds in whole or in part for such period as it considers necessary, hold them in such form as it considers appropriate, pay them to any Government, competent authority or court, or take any other action it considers necessary to comply with applicable Law. Withheld proceeds do not form part of any Vault Pool, and the User's claim in respect of them is limited to the amount withheld, without interest, yield or adjustment for the passage of time.

If the Company determines to cease operating any Vault (a "Vault Cessation Notice"), the Company shall give notice to all relevant Users via the Platform as soon as reasonably practicable. Upon delivery of a Vault Cessation Notice, each relevant User shall be deemed to have submitted an irrevocable redemption request in respect of all Receipt Tokens held by that User in respect of the ceasing Vault, to be effected at the NAV per Receipt Token determined in accordance with Section 6 as at the Valuation Point specified in that notice, being a Valuation Point falling on or after its date, and the Company shall process redemptions in an orderly manner subject to the limited recourse and liquidity provisions of these Terms and the relevant Vault Schedule. The cessation of one Vault shall not affect the operation of any other Vault.

Where the determination of Net Asset Value in respect of the relevant Vault is suspended under Section 6, the Company may effect a compulsory redemption, at its election, either at the last NAV per Receipt Token determined before the suspension or at the first Valuation Point following the lifting of the suspension, in each case notwithstanding any suspension of redemptions.

#### Limited Recourse; No Cross-Recourse; No Cross-Default

The Company’s obligations to any User in respect of any Vault are limited recourse obligations, payable only from the Vault Pool attributable to that Vault and strictly in accordance with these Terms and the relevant Vault Schedule. Each User irrevocably agrees that, in the event the Vault Pool for a Vault is insufficient to satisfy in full the amounts otherwise due to Users of that Vault, the Company’s obligations shall be limited to the application of such Vault Pool, and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any unsatisfied amounts shall be irrevocably extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. Following such extinguishment, no User shall be entitled to take any further steps against the Company or any other person in respect of such extinguished claims.

Users in respect of one Vault have no claim to, and no recourse against, the Vault Pool or assets of any other Vault. No failure to pay, shortfall, or extinguishment in respect of one Vault shall constitute an event of default, cross-default, cross-acceleration, or give rise to any right against any other Vault or the Company’s general assets.

#### Receipt Token Status <a href="#cb4i5tk8pyzh" id="cb4i5tk8pyzh"></a>

Receipt Tokens, by themselves, do not represent any equity, ownership, profit-sharing, or governance rights in the Company entity itself. They are functionally distinct from governance tokens that may grant voting power over a protocol's future. The sole function of a Receipt Token is to represent the proportional amount of your Loaned Assets and includes, if applicable, any net yield accrued attributable to such amount.

#### Reliance on Third-Party Infrastructure and Services <a href="#ek7t2dqtr7n1" id="ek7t2dqtr7n1"></a>

The functionality, availability, and security of the Services are fundamentally dependent on underlying infrastructure and services provided by third parties, over which the Company has no control. This includes, but is not limited to:

●      The specific blockchain network on which the Protocol is deployed.

●      Decentralized oracle services that provide external data to the smart contracts. The Protocol may rely on such oracles to maintain the value representation of assets. There are inherent risks associated with oracles, including the potential for technical failures, manipulation, or the provision of inaccurate data, which could adversely affect the operation of the Vault.

●      Any other third-party protocols or smart contracts with which the Vault may interact as part of a Vault strategy.

The Company is not liable for any failures, disruptions, or vulnerabilities of this third-party infrastructure. This includes but is not limited to events such as blockchain forks, 51% attacks, network congestion, oracle failures, or bugs in the underlying blockchain's client software. By using the Services, you acknowledge and accept that the Protocol's performance is contingent upon these external dependencies.

### 6. Valuation and Net Asset Value

**Determination of Net Asset Value**

The Company shall determine the Net Asset Value of each Vault as at each Valuation Point applicable to that Vault. The Company shall act in good faith in making such determination. The frequency of Valuation Points, and the primary sources of valuation applicable to a Vault, are specified in the relevant Vault Schedule and may be amended in accordance with the amendment mechanics set out therein.

The Company may determine Net Asset Value itself or may appoint any administrator, calculation agent, valuation agent or other service provider to perform the calculation on its behalf. Any such appointment does not relieve the Company of the discretions conferred by this Section, each of which remains exercisable by the Company.

Net Asset Value may be determined at times other than a scheduled Valuation Point where the Company considers, in its reasonable opinion, that an event has occurred which is likely to have a material effect on the value of the Vault Pool.

**Valuation Sources and Reliance**

In determining Net Asset Value, the Company may rely, without independent verification and without any obligation to inquire further, on valuations, net asset values, statements, reports, marks, prices and other information provided or published by any issuer, sponsor, investment manager, administrator, servicer, custodian, calculation agent, pricing service, trading venue, lending protocol or oracle in respect of any asset or position held in or attributable to a Vault Pool.

Users acknowledge that valuations of certain Eligible Underlyings, including those representing interests in private credit, asset-backed credit and other instruments not traded on an active market, are produced by third parties on their own methodologies and schedules, may be published infrequently, may be subject to material delay, may be subject to subsequent revision, and are not verifiable by the Company or by any User by reference to observable market prices.

The Company shall have no liability to any User in respect of any inaccuracy, delay, omission, revision or restatement in any valuation, mark or other information supplied by a third party and relied upon in good faith.

**Adjustments**

Where, in the Company's reasonable opinion, a valuation in respect of any asset or position is unavailable, has not been refreshed within the period specified in the relevant Vault Schedule, is unreliable, or does not fairly reflect the value at which the asset or position could be realised, the Company may:

● apply a discount or haircut to the most recent available valuation;

● value the asset or position by reference to an alternative methodology, including cost, amortised cost, the last available valuation, an estimated realisable value, or a valuation obtained from an independent third party;

● make provision for any actual, contingent or anticipated liability, loss, impairment or expense, whether or not then quantified; or

● attribute no value to the asset or position.

Any such adjustment shall take effect from the Valuation Point at which it is applied and shall reduce or increase NAV per Receipt Token accordingly, with immediate effect and without prior notice to Users.

**Excluded Assets and Deferred Repayment**

Notwithstanding the definition of Vault Pool and the provisions of Section 5 (Non-Custodial Offering), the Company may at any time designate any asset or position within a Vault Pool as an Excluded Asset where, in its reasonable opinion, that asset or position is impaired, is in default, cannot be valued reliably, or cannot be realised within a period consistent with the redemption terms of the relevant Vault Schedule.

With effect from designation:

● the value of the Excluded Asset shall be disregarded in determining NAV per Receipt Token;

● the Company shall record, in respect of each holder of Receipt Tokens of the relevant Vault as at the time of designation, the portion of the amount otherwise payable to that holder which is attributable to the Excluded Asset (each, a "Deferred Amount"), and such record shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error;

● payment of each Deferred Amount is deferred, and no Deferred Amount is payable, until such time as the Excluded Asset is realised, written off, or ceases to be an Excluded Asset;

● a Deferred Amount is not transferable and does not attach to, or transfer with, any Receipt Token;

● a User whose Receipt Tokens are redeemed after designation remains entitled to its Deferred Amount notwithstanding such redemption, and receives no value in respect of the Excluded Asset at the time of that redemption; and

● upon realisation of an Excluded Asset, the Company shall apply the net proceeds actually received, after deduction of costs and expenses of realisation, in payment of the Deferred Amounts recorded in respect of that Excluded Asset, rateably and without interest, whereupon those Deferred Amounts shall be extinguished in full whether or not paid in full.

The Company may at any time determine that an asset or position ceases to be an Excluded Asset, whereupon it shall be reinstated into the Vault Pool at such value as the Company determines in accordance with this Section, and the corresponding Deferred Amounts shall be extinguished.

No fee calculated by reference to Net Asset Value shall accrue in respect of an Excluded Asset while it remains designated, save that the Company may deduct costs and expenses of realisation from the proceeds of that Excluded Asset.

Deferred Amounts are subject to the limited recourse and extinguishment provisions of these Terms and are payable only from the proceeds of the relevant Excluded Asset.

**Suspension of Valuation**

The Company may suspend the determination of Net Asset Value in respect of a Vault where, in its reasonable opinion, (a) valuations in respect of a material portion of the Vault Pool are unavailable or cannot be relied upon; (b) the assets of the Vault Pool cannot be realised or valued without material prejudice to Users; (c) a Force Majeure Event has occurred which prevents or materially impairs the determination of Net Asset Value or the realisation of assets comprised in the Vault Pool; or (d) circumstances exist which make determination impracticable. During any such suspension, redemptions in respect of that Vault shall be suspended and no subscriptions shall be accepted, save as provided in Section 5 (Compulsory Redemption; Cessation of Operations).

**Finality**

Any determination of Net Asset Value, NAV per Receipt Token, or the application of any adjustment or designation under this Section shall be final and binding on all Users in the absence of manifest error.

The Company may, but is under no obligation to, restate any previously determined Net Asset Value. Where a Net Asset Value is restated, no adjustment shall be made to any subscription or redemption already effected by reference to the superseded Net Asset Value, no amount shall be payable by or to any User in consequence of the restatement, and no User shall have any claim against the Company, against any other User, or against the Vault Pool in respect of the superseded Net Asset Value.

Users acknowledge that a User transacting at a Net Asset Value that is subsequently shown to have been overstated or understated bears the consequences of that inaccuracy, and that this allocation of risk is a fundamental term of the Services.

**Publication**

Any Net Asset Value or NAV per Receipt Token published on the Platform, recorded on the blockchain network, or otherwise made available by the Company is published for information only. It is not audited, does not constitute a valuation prepared in accordance with any accounting standard, and does not constitute a representation that the relevant assets could be realised at that value. The Company gives no warranty as to the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of any published Net Asset Value.

### 7.  Comprehensive Risk Disclosures <a href="#id-8jzbtje1tmjp" id="id-8jzbtje1tmjp"></a>

THE FOLLOWING SECTION CONTAINS A DETAILED, THOUGH NOT EXHAUSTIVE, DISCLOSURE OF THE SIGNIFICANT RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH USING THE SERVICES. YOU ARE STRONGLY URGED TO READ AND UNDERSTAND THESE RISKS THOROUGHLY BEFORE INTERACTING WITH THE PROTOCOL. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE COMPANY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSSES INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THESE RISKS.

#### No Financial Advice, No Fiduciary, No RIA, No Broker-Dealer, No Custody

All information, data, and content provided through the Services are for informational purposes only and should not be construed as investment advice, financial advice, trading advice, or a recommendation or solicitation to buy, sell, hold, or otherwise transact in any digital asset or to engage with the Services in any way. The Company is a technology provider, not a financial advisor or any other type of person providing advisory services. You should not make any financial or other decisions based on the information presented through the Services without conducting your own independent due diligence and consulting with a qualified professional financial advisor.

We are not your broker, intermediary, agent, advisor, or fiduciary. We do not provide investment advice, do not solicit transactions, and do not take custody of user assets. No communication or information provided by us shall be considered a recommendation or advice.

#### Inherent Risks of Cryptographic Assets <a href="#id-2uduq1gtdpe1" id="id-2uduq1gtdpe1"></a>

The digital assets you may deposit into the Vault are subject to inherent risks common to the cryptocurrency market. These include, but are not limited to, extreme price volatility, where the value of assets can fluctuate dramatically and unpredictably, potentially resulting in a total loss of your principal. The market is also susceptible to manipulation, irrational sentiment, and a general lack of the regulatory oversight and investor protections found in traditional financial markets.

#### Smart Contract and Protocol Risk <a href="#ctdzo3g0k0jv" id="ctdzo3g0k0jv"></a>

The Services and the underlying Protocol are based on complex, open-source smart contract code, both developed by the Company and/or by third parties. While security audits and best practices may be implemented, there is an inherent risk of bugs, vulnerabilities, flaws, or exploits within any smart contract code. Such vulnerabilities could be exploited by malicious actors, potentially leading to a partial or total loss of all assets held within the Protocol's smart contracts or any third-party smart contracts with which the Vault interact. You acknowledge that this risk is a persistent and significant threat in the DeFi ecosystem.

#### Risks Associated with Digital Asset Transactions / Operations <a href="#l2xy4cp1b5z6" id="l2xy4cp1b5z6"></a>

Key risks associated with digital asset transactions and operations include but not are not limited to the following:

●      Loss of Private Keys: If you lose your private keys or the seed phrase used to recover your wallet, you will permanently and irreversibly lose access to your funds. There is no central authority or support service that can help you recover them.

●      User Error: Any mistake made by you, such as sending assets to an incorrect blockchain address or interacting with a malicious contract, is irreversible. The Company cannot undo or reverse such transactions.

●      Phishing and Social Engineering: You are a target for sophisticated phishing attacks, scams, and other forms of social engineering designed to trick you into revealing your private keys or authorizing malicious transactions. You must remain vigilant against such threats.

#### Strategy and Vault-Specific Risks <a href="#id-11di2exhqd9d" id="id-11di2exhqd9d"></a>

The Vault executes specific strategies, and each strategy carries its own unique set of risks. There is no guarantee of any returns, rewards, or yield. Any projected returns are estimates and not guaranteed. These risks may include, but are not limited to:

●      Underlying Protocol Risk: Vault strategies may interact with or deploy assets to various external third-party protocols. By using a Vault, you are exposed to the risks of all such underlying protocols, including smart contract failures, exploits, or economic instability of those protocols.

●      Liquidation Risk: Strategies that employ leverage or borrowing are subject to liquidation risk, where a sudden drop in the value of collateral could lead to its forced sale and a significant loss of principal.

●      Impermanent Loss: Strategies that involve providing liquidity to decentralized exchanges are subject to the risk of impermanent loss.

●      Slashing Penalties: Strategies that involve staking assets are subject to slashing penalties, where a portion of the staked assets can be forfeited.

●      Strategy Failure: A strategy may be poorly designed, underperform, may be subject to asset loss, or may fail entirely due to flawed logic or unforeseen market conditions.

●      Withdrawal Waiting Period: Withdrawals from the Vault may not be not instant and may be subject to minimum waiting periods. These minimum waiting periods will be displayed on the Company website or application (as applicable). The actual waiting periods may end up being significantly longer depending on the liquidity of the underlying strategies.

●      Unstaking / Exit Queue: Some strategies may utilize staking, liquid staking tokens, or related functions. These strategies may have extended unstaking times or queues to exit these positions. The Company does not control these waiting periods. Withdrawals from a Vault may be delayed due to these waiting periods.

●      Airdrops, Forks, Unsupported Assets: We have no obligation to support any airdrop, fork, token migration, or unsupported asset sent to a Vault. Assets sent to incorrect chains or contract addresses may be irrecoverable.

●      APR/APY Figures: Any such figures displayed relating to the projected Vault returns on the Company website or app are illustrative only, do not constitute a promise of a given APR/APY, and are non-binding.

●      No Obligation to Maintain or Support: We may, as necessary or required in conjunction with certain third-parties, modify, discontinue, or remove a certain feature, strategy, or the Vault at any time. We have no obligation to provide support, updates, or to continue operating the Service.

#### Receipt Token Risks <a href="#qvqtt76cbhnv" id="qvqtt76cbhnv"></a>

Receipt Tokens introduce risks specific to their nature as on-chain representations of a claim against the Vault Pool. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following.

●      Whitelist Transfer Restriction Risk: Receipt Tokens may only be transferred to or held by addresses that have been approved and added to the Company’s whitelist (each, an “Approved Address”). A transfer of Receipt Tokens to any address that is not an Approved Address will be rejected at the smart contract level or may result in permanent loss of the tokens. Users are solely responsible for maintaining accurate and up-to-date instructions to the Company regarding which wallet addresses should be added to or removed from the whitelist. The Company will act on whitelist instructions received through the authorised channel specified by the Platform and will not be liable for any loss arising from instructions it acted upon in good faith.

●      Social Engineering and Phishing Risk on Whitelist Instructions: Because the transfer of Receipt Tokens is restricted to whitelisted addresses, a malicious third party who obtains control over a User’s account or communication channel and causes the Company to add a fraudulent address to the whitelist may redirect Receipt Token transfers to an address controlled by the attacker. Receipt Tokens transferred to such an address cannot be recovered. The Company is not responsible for losses arising from social engineering attacks, phishing, account compromise, or other malicious manipulation of whitelist instructions, provided the Company acted in good faith on instructions received through the proper authorised channel. Users must implement strong security practices for all accounts and communication channels used to provide whitelist instructions to the Company.

●      Receipt Token Value Risk: The value of a Receipt Token is not fixed or guaranteed. It represents only the User’s proportional entitlement against the Vault Pool at the time of a valid withdrawal request. Factors including, but not limited to, strategy losses, protocol failures, de-peg events, and adverse market conditions may cause the Vault Pool to decline in value, resulting in a Receipt Token being worth less than the original Loaned Assets. There is no minimum redemption amount, and the User may receive less than the value deposited, up to and including a total loss.

●      No Secondary Market Liquidity: Receipt Tokens may not be listed on any secondary market or trading venue. Due to the whitelist restriction, any transfer requires prior Company approval. The Company does not guarantee that any secondary market for Receipt Tokens will exist or that Users will be able to sell or transfer their Receipt Tokens at any time or at any price. Users should not purchase Loaned Assets and deposit them to the Vault with any expectation of being able to exit their position through secondary market sale of Receipt Tokens.

#### Regulatory and Legal Risks <a href="#qvliwymv2wl4" id="qvliwymv2wl4"></a>

The legal and regulatory framework governing decentralized finance and digital assets is highly uncertain, subject to change, and varies significantly across jurisdictions. Future laws, regulations, or judicial interpretations could adversely affect the operation of the Protocol, restrict your ability to access or use the Services, or change the tax treatment of your transactions.

#### Third-Party Risks <a href="#qi97dqqcrvfy" id="qi97dqqcrvfy"></a>

You bear the full risk of failure, negligence, or malicious action on the part of the third parties providing services related to, or in connection with, the Vault and Protocol. You also bear the full risk of failure, negligence or malicious action on the part of any other third-parties who may, from time to time, be involved in certain aspects of the Services. The Company does not control or guarantee the performance of these third parties.

### 8.  User Conduct and Responsibilities <a href="#x0i017c2ya8d" id="x0i017c2ya8d"></a>

#### Responsibility for Wallet Security <a href="#id-40z7br8s1016" id="id-40z7br8s1016"></a>

You are solely and entirely responsible for all activities that occur under your digital wallet address when interacting with the Services.

#### Compliance with Laws and Taxation <a href="#t713nwagc4uc" id="t713nwagc4uc"></a>

You agree to use the Services only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not violate the rights of, or restrict or inhibit the use and enjoyment of the Services by, any third party. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Services is in compliance with all laws, rules, and regulations applicable to you.

Furthermore, you are solely responsible for determining the tax implications of your transactions and use of the Services. This includes determining what, if any, taxes apply to your depositing of assets, receipt of yield, minting and disposal of Receipt Tokens, and any other transactions. It is your sole responsibility to report and remit the correct tax to the appropriate tax authority. The Company does not provide tax advice and has no obligation to report on your behalf.

#### Anti-Money Laundering, Counter-Terrorist Financing and Due Diligence <a href="#a7x4lwjefbgh" id="a7x4lwjefbgh"></a>

The Company is committed to providing safe, compliant, and reputable Services and to identifying, detecting, preventing, and reporting money laundering, terrorist financing, and other improper activities under applicable AML Laws, CTF Laws, Anti-Corruption Laws, and Economic Sanctions Laws. Accordingly, the Company requires compliance with a comprehensive user due diligence process and ongoing analysis and reporting obligations. By agreeing to these Terms, you affirm that you are not a Prohibited Person, that you are not utilising any digital wallet for the benefit of a Prohibited Person, and that your account would not be regarded as a U.S. Account. You must provide promptly all information requested and necessary to satisfy due diligence requirements and obligations pursuant to applicable Laws and the compliance policies and procedures of the Company or any of its affiliates. You agree to provide promptly any documentation, information, or records requested by the Company at any time, including a self-certification permitting the determination of tax residence and status under Tax Information Exchange Laws. Such information may include self-certifications as to Controlling Persons and beneficial ownership of one or more legal entities. The Company needs to retain certain information, documentation, and records on file pursuant to applicable Laws and its contractual relationships, and the Company hereby expressly reserves the right to keep such information, documentation, and records. Additionally, the Company monitors for and assesses suspicious or sanctionable transactions under applicable AML, CTF, Anti-Corruption, and Economic Sanctions Laws, as well as undertakes mandatory reporting to OFAC, FIA, and applicable international regulators. These undertakings shall apply even after you suspend or terminate your relationship with the Company or abandon your application.

#### Prohibited Activities <a href="#a7x4lwjefbgh3" id="a7x4lwjefbgh3"></a>

In connection with your use of the Services, you agree that you will not, directly or indirectly, nor allow any third party to:

#### Right to Restrict Access <a href="#kz45nu4g3d1z" id="kz45nu4g3d1z"></a>

Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, the Company reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, without notice and for any reason, to suspend, terminate, or otherwise restrict your access to the Services. This may include, but is not limited to, blocking wallet addresses from interacting with the Protocol or blocking the provision of Receipt Tokens for the underlying assets if the Company determines, in its sole judgment, that such addresses are associated with a breach of these Terms, illicit activities, sanctions violations, or pose an unacceptable level of risk to the Company or the Protocol. You agree that the Company will not be liable to you or to any third party for any such suspension, termination, or restriction of access.

Certain contracts may be upgradeable or subject to emergency pause by a multisig or admin key. Upgrades or pauses may change functionality, including fee parameters or withdrawal mechanics, and may be executed without prior notice.

#### Non-Petition; No Interim Relief; No Attachment

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each User irrevocably agrees that it shall not take any steps to institute, or join with any other person in instituting, any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, administration, receivership, reorganisation, winding-up or similar proceedings against the Company in any jurisdiction arising out of or in connection with any Vault, any Receipt Token, or these Terms. This covenant is given in consideration of the limited recourse structure described herein and is intended to preserve the integrity of that structure for the benefit of all Users. Nothing in this clause prevents a User from taking such steps as are strictly necessary to enforce a permitted limited recourse claim against the Vault Pool of the relevant Vault, subject always to the limited recourse and extinguishment provisions herein.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each User irrevocably waives any right to apply for, seek, or obtain any interim or conservatory relief or measure of any kind (including any freezing order, Mareva injunction, attachment, garnishment, sequestration, or similar relief) against the Company, any Vault, any Vault Pool, or the Company’s general assets, arising out of or in connection with any Vault, any Receipt Token, or these Terms. Each User acknowledges that the grant of such relief would be inconsistent with the limited recourse and ring-fencing structure of the Services and that the Company may seek the immediate discharge of any such relief obtained in breach of this provision.

Each User shall indemnify the Company (on demand) against all losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including legal fees on a full indemnity basis) suffered or incurred by the Company arising out of any breach by such User of the covenants set out in this section.

### 9.  Fees and Protocol Revenue

Your use of the Services may be subject to certain fees.

●      Protocol Fees: The Company and/or Protocol may charge fees in connection with the Services, including protocol fees, performance fees, withdrawal fees, or other fee types. The applicable fee rates for each Vault are set out in the relevant Vault Schedule. Users are responsible for reviewing the relevant Vault Schedule prior to depositing Loaned Assets and at each fee change event.

●      Blockchain Transaction Fees ("Gas Fees"): All interactions with the Protocol require transactions on the underlying blockchain network. You are solely responsible for paying the transaction fees (i.e., "gas fees") associated with your activities. The Company has no control over the amount of gas fees.

●      No Refunds: All fees processed by the Protocol and as contemplated by this Agreement, including both Protocol fees and gas fees, are non-refundable, final, and irreversible.

●      Fee Changes: The Company retains the right to change the fees charged at any time by updating the Vault Schedule. Fee increases (other than the introduction of a fee type where none previously existed) shall take effect no earlier than five (5) calendar days after the updated Vault Schedule is published at our website specified in these Terms above. The introduction of a new fee type shall take effect no earlier than fourteen (14) calendar days after publication. Fee reductions take effect immediately upon publication. Notice is deemed given upon publication of the updated Vault Schedule at the website specified in these Terms, and no separate individual notice to each User is required. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of any fee change constitutes acceptance of the revised Vault Schedule.

●      Rebates and Third-Party Revenue: The Company or its affiliates may from time to time receive rebates, revenue shares, fee refunds, or other payments from the managers or issuers of assets held in, or protocols used by, a Vault (collectively, “Third-Party Revenue”). Third-Party Revenue is received for the Company’s own account and does not form part of the Vault Pool or the yield accruing to Users. The Company acknowledges that Third-Party Revenue arrangements may create incentives to favour particular asset managers, protocols, or counterparties, and will seek to manage any such conflicts of interest in accordance with its internal policies and, to the extent required by applicable law, applicable disclosure obligations.

●      Stability Buffer: The Company may maintain, at its discretion, a reserve of assets held separately from and not forming part of the Vault Pool (the “Stability Buffer”), with the purpose of smoothing the variability in net yield distributed to Users that arises from short-term deviations in the value of borrowed stablecoins and other USD-neutral assets relative to their target peg. Because the Stability Buffer is separate from the Vault Pool, it does not form part of Users’ limited recourse claims. The maintenance of a Stability Buffer means that the yield experienced by Users at any point in time may not exactly equal the gross yield generated by the Vault’s deployed positions during that period; actual distributions may be higher or lower than contemporaneous gross yields. The Company does not guarantee any specific yield level or smoothing outcome.

### 10.  Intellectual Property Rights <a href="#h3fvma96fbj" id="h3fvma96fbj"></a>

# VAULT SCHEDULE — primeUSD

## SCHEDULE 1

This Schedule 1 constitutes the Vault Schedule for the primeUSD Vault and forms part of the Terms of Service ("Terms") of Valiant Digital Assets Ltd. Capitalised terms used but not defined in this Schedule have the meanings given in the Terms. In the event of any inconsistency between this Schedule and the body of the Terms, the body of the Terms shall prevail.

#### 1. Vault Identification

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="229.89453125"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Date of Schedule</td><td>2 June 2026</td></tr><tr><td>Last Updated</td><td>31 July 2026</td></tr><tr><td>Vault name</td><td>primeUSD</td></tr><tr><td>Vault type</td><td>Leveraged Investment Grade Yield Vault</td></tr><tr><td>Smart contract address</td><td>0x7ea76108975ec0998b9bc2db04b4eca986400dd7</td></tr><tr><td>Blockchain network</td><td>Ethereum mainnet (and/or such other network(s) as the Company may designate by updating this Schedule)</td></tr></tbody></table>

#### 2. Accepted Loaned Asset

The only accepted Loaned Asset for the primeUSD Vault is USD Coin (USDC) as issued by Circle Internet Financial, LLC. The Company may update the accepted Loaned Asset by amending this Schedule in accordance with the Terms.

#### 3. Eligible Underlying Investments

The primeUSD Vault is designed to deploy Loaned Assets into the following categories of investment (“Eligible Underlyings”):

* **Tokenised T-Bill MMFs:** on-chain representations of interests in money market funds whose portfolios consist primarily of short-term U.S. Treasury bills (including, without limitation, U.S. Treasury bills with a remaining maturity of 397 days or less and repurchase agreements collateralised by U.S. Treasuries). The Company retains sole discretion to select, add, or remove T-Bill MMF providers and on-chain protocol integrations at any time without prior notice.
* **Tokenised investment grade fixed income funds:** on-chain representations of interests in funds or exchange-traded products whose portfolios consist primarily of investment grade fixed income instruments, including without limitation AAA-rated collateralised loan obligation (CLO) tranches and other short-duration investment grade credit instruments. The Company retains sole discretion to select, add, or remove eligible funds and on-chain integrations at any time without prior notice.
* **Lending market collateral positions:** T-Bill MMF interests, investment grade fixed income fund interests, and other Eligible Underlyings deposited as collateral on one or more DeFi lending protocols selected by the Company at its discretion for the purpose of generating a leveraged yield spread. The Company retains sole discretion to select, add, or remove lending protocol integrations without prior notice.
* **Liquidity Reserve assets:** USDC and/or other liquid stablecoins.

The Company may add or remove categories of Eligible Underlyings by updating this Schedule with not less than five (5) calendar days’ notice published on the Platform, except where an immediate change is required by applicable Law, in which case the Company may act immediately and shall provide notice as soon as reasonably practicable.

#### 4. Strategy Description

The primeUSD Vault pursues a leveraged carry strategy as follows:

(a) USDC deposited by Users is deployed into a collateral basket consisting of one or more Eligible Underlyings, including tokenised T-Bill MMFs and tokenised investment grade fixed income funds, to generate a base yield. The composition of the collateral basket is determined by the Company at its discretion.

(b) Eligible Underlyings are deposited as collateral on selected DeFi lending protocols to borrow additional USDC or other eligible stablecoins at the prevailing variable market rate.

(c) Loaned Assets are re-deployed into Eligible Underlyings, with variable leverage ratios, but subject to the Target Leverage Ratio, to amplify the yield spread between the return on collateral assets and borrowing costs.

(d) Net yield generated by the strategy, less applicable Protocol Fees, is reflected in the value of the Vault Pool and accrued proportionally to Users’ claims.

#### 5. Leverage Parameters

Target Leverage Ratio:  8x (indicative operating target; may vary based on market conditions)

The Target Leverage Ratio represents a guideline ratio and not a commitment. Actual leverage will vary based on market conditions and the Company’s risk management decisions. Leverage may be reduced or eliminated at any time without notice.

#### **6. Valuation**

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="233.9609375"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Valuation Point</td><td>Daily, as at 12:00 UTC</td></tr><tr><td>Reconciliation</td><td>Weekly, on each Wednesday, or where that day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day</td></tr><tr><td>Primary valuation sources</td><td>Net asset values published by the issuer or administrator of each Eligible Underlying; on-chain reads of positions held on lending protocols; prevailing market price, or oracle price, for stablecoins and Liquidity Reserve assets</td></tr><tr><td>Stale valuation period</td><td>A valuation is treated as stale where it has not been refreshed within 5 Business Days of the date as at which the most recent valuation was determined</td></tr><tr><td>Publication</td><td>NAV per Receipt Token published on the blockchain network</td></tr></tbody></table>

The determination of Net Asset Value, the application of adjustments, the designation of Excluded Assets and the suspension of valuation are governed by Section 6 of the Terms.

In determining Net Asset Value, borrowings denominated in stablecoins and other USD-neutral assets may be valued at parity with the U.S. dollar rather than at prevailing market price, with the resulting variance addressed through the Stability Buffer in accordance with Section 9 of the Terms.

**Smoothing.** The Company determines NAV per Receipt Token on a smoothed basis. Net changes in Net Asset Value identified at a Reconciliation, whether positive or negative, are reflected in NAV per Receipt Token progressively over the period to the following Reconciliation, rather than in a single step. Accordingly, NAV per Receipt Token at any Valuation Point may be higher or lower than the amount that would result from dividing Net Asset Value determined at that time by the number of Receipt Tokens then in issue, and may remain higher for the remainder of the period following a Reconciliation at which a loss or reduction in value was identified. Users depositing or redeeming between Reconciliations transact at the smoothed NAV per Receipt Token then applicable, and no adjustment is made in respect of the difference. The Company may amend or discontinue the smoothing methodology, and the frequency of Reconciliation, at any time.

#### 7. Fees

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="189.37890625"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Protocol fee</td><td>0.5% per annum of Net Asset Value, accrued daily and deducted from the Vault Pool</td></tr><tr><td>Performance fee</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>Withdrawal fee</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>Other fees</td><td>Subject to any new fee types introduced in accordance with the Fee Change mechanics in the Terms</td></tr></tbody></table>

#### 8. Withdrawal / Redemption Terms

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="272.359375"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Standard processing target</td><td>5 Business Days from receipt of a valid redemption request</td></tr><tr><td>Extended processing</td><td>Up to 20 Business Days in periods of elevated redemption volumes, market stress, or Force Majeure Events</td></tr><tr><td>Minimum redemption amount</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>Express redemption</td><td>For aggregate redemptions not exceeding 10% of Net Asset Value at the time of the request: processed on a best efforts basis by the next Business Day, but no later than the Standard processing target. This target is non-binding and subject to available Vault liquidity at the time of the request</td></tr><tr><td>Redemption currency</td><td>USDC</td></tr><tr><td>Redemption pricing</td><td>NAV per Receipt Token determined as at the Valuation Point applicable on the date the redemption request is validly submitted on the Platform</td></tr></tbody></table>

All redemption obligations are limited to the User’s pro-rata share of the Vault Pool at the time of processing and are subject to the limited recourse and extinguishment provisions of the Terms. Processing timelines are non-binding operational targets only.

#### 9. Vault-Specific Risk Factors

The primeUSD Vault's strategy involves deploying USDC into a collateral basket consisting of tokenised T-Bill money market funds (T-Bill MMFs) and tokenised investment grade fixed income funds, including AAA-rated CLO tranches. The strategy also involves using those positions as collateral to borrow additional assets on DeFi lending markets, with the aim of generating a leveraged yield spread. This creates a distinct set of economic and market risks that are additional to, and separate from, the smart contract and operational risks described elsewhere in the Terms. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

**Floating Rate Risk on Collateral Assets.** The Vault's collateral assets generate yields that are variable. T-Bill MMF positions track short-term U.S. Treasury rates, which are set by macroeconomic conditions and central bank policy. Investment grade fixed income positions, including AAA CLO tranches, generate floating rate returns linked to SOFR, which similarly fluctuates with market conditions. A decline in either T-Bill yields or SOFR will directly reduce the yield generated by the relevant collateral. Because the Vault's net return depends on the spread between the yield on collateral assets and the cost of borrowings, any reduction in T-Bill yields compresses that spread and reduces or eliminates returns to Users, potentially resulting in a net loss.

**Floating Rate Risk on Borrowings.** The borrowing rates on DeFi lending markets are variable and are determined algorithmically by on-chain supply and demand dynamics. Rates can rise sharply and rapidly in response to periods of market stress, elevated utilisation of lending pools, or changes in protocol risk parameters. A material increase in borrowing costs will reduce the net yield available to Users and may cause the Vault's strategy to become unprofitable. The Vault does not guarantee any fixed spread between its asset yield and its cost of borrowing, and both may move independently and adversely at the same time.

**Credit Risk.** A portion of the Vault's collateral basket may be allocated to structured credit instruments, including AAA-rated CLO tranches and other investment grade fixed income instruments. Unlike U.S. Treasury bills, these instruments represent exposure to corporate credit rather than government debt. While AAA-rated CLO tranches benefit from structural subordination and have historically experienced near-zero credit losses, their market value can decline materially in periods of credit stress, market illiquidity, or spread widening, even in the absence of actual credit losses. A decline in the market value of these instruments reduces the Vault's collateral value and may increase the risk of forced deleveraging or liquidation.

**Stablecoin and USD-Neutral Asset De-Peg Risk.** The Vault borrows USDC and/or other stablecoins whose on-chain value may deviate from their USD peg. Short-term peg deviations affect the effective cost of borrowing and net yield. The Stability Buffer aims to smooth these effects but provides no guarantee of stable distributions. The Vault may also interact with assets described as "USD-neutral" or designed to maintain a one-to-one peg with the U.S. dollar, including on-chain representations of T-Bill MMF shares. Any deviation of such an asset from a value of one U.S. dollar — whether due to redemption gate events, reserve insufficiency, smart contract failure, regulatory action, or general market dislocation — will directly affect the net asset value of the Vault and may cause losses to Users. In severe de-peg scenarios, the Vault's collateral value may fall below the value of its outstanding borrowings, triggering forced liquidations. Users should note that "USD-neutral" or "stablecoin" labelling provides no guarantee of value stability.

**Fund Wrapper and Redemption Risk.** Tokenised T-Bill MMFs and investment grade fixed income funds are on-chain representations of interests in underlying funds or exchange-traded products. Access to the underlying assets depends on the redemption mechanics and operational continuity of the relevant fund issuer and their on-chain infrastructure. If an underlying fund imposes redemption gates, suspends redemptions, experiences a material loss, or becomes subject to regulatory action, the on-chain token representing that interest may trade at a significant discount or become temporarily or permanently illiquid. The Vault's ability to meet User withdrawal requests may be impaired if collateral positions cannot be redeemed in a timely manner.

**Spread Compression and Negative Carry Risk.** The Vault's net yield is the spread between the blended yield on deployed collateral assets and the cost of borrowed funds. This spread may compress to zero or become negative — a condition known as negative carry — if borrowing rates rise faster than collateral yields, or if collateral yields fall faster than borrowing costs. In a negative carry environment, the Vault's strategy will generate a loss rather than a return, eroding the value of Loaned Assets over time. The Company does not guarantee that the spread will remain positive at any time.

**Leverage and Liquidation Cascade Risk.** The use of leverage amplifies both potential returns and potential losses. The Vault's leveraged positions are subject to maintenance margin and loan-to-value requirements on DeFi lending protocols. If the value of collateral declines relative to outstanding borrowings — whether due to T-Bill MMF de-peg, CLO spread widening, rate movements, or protocol parameter changes — the Vault may be subject to forced partial or full liquidation of its collateral at prevailing market prices. Liquidation events can be cascading: a liquidation that depresses collateral asset prices may trigger further liquidations across the DeFi ecosystem, amplifying losses. Users may receive less than the value of their Loaned Assets in a liquidation scenario.

**Lending Market Liquidity and Protocol Parameter Risk.** DeFi lending protocols may at any time modify their risk parameters, including maximum loan-to-value ratios, liquidation thresholds, and collateral eligibility. Such changes may force the Vault to deleverage rapidly and may restrict the ability to deploy or maintain positions in T-Bill MMFs or investment grade fixed income instruments as eligible collateral. If liquidity in the relevant lending market is insufficient, unwinding positions may result in significant price impact and losses. The Company has no control over the governance decisions of third-party lending protocols and cannot guarantee that the Vault's strategy will remain viable if such parameters change.

#### 10. Amendments to this Schedule

The Company may amend this Schedule at any time by publishing an updated version on the Platform. Material amendments will be subject to the notice periods specified in the relevant sections above or, where not specified, to the general fee change mechanics in the Terms. Non-material amendments (including but not limited to typographical corrections, smart contract address updates following a migration, and administrative details) may be made immediately upon publication. Your continued use of the primeUSD Vault after the effective date of any amendment constitutes acceptance of the amended Schedule.


# VAULT SCHEDULE — CARRY

## SCHEDULE 2

This Schedule 2 constitutes the Vault Schedule for the Carry Vault and forms part of the Terms of Service ("Terms") of Valiant Digital Assets Ltd. Capitalised terms used but not defined in this Schedule have the meanings given in the Terms. In the event of any inconsistency between this Schedule and the body of the Terms, the body of the Terms shall prevail.

#### **1. Vault Identification**

<table data-header-hidden data-search="false"><thead><tr><th width="232.76171875"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Date of Schedule</td><td>31 July 2026</td></tr><tr><td>Last Updated</td><td>31 July 2026</td></tr><tr><td>Vault name</td><td>Carry Vault</td></tr><tr><td>Vault token</td><td>Vault Street Carry (CARRY)</td></tr><tr><td>Vault type</td><td>Diversified Higher Yield Credit and Market Neutral Vault</td></tr><tr><td>Smart contract address</td><td>0xF05F7Ab9B05D9Dcf99B8E9bBAE8E5e4A3201D004</td></tr><tr><td>Blockchain network</td><td>Ethereum mainnet (and/or such other network(s) as the Company may designate by updating this Schedule)</td></tr></tbody></table>

#### **2. Accepted Loaned Asset**

The only accepted Loaned Asset for the Carry Vault is USD Coin (USDC) as issued by Circle Internet Financial, LLC. The Company may update the accepted Loaned Asset by amending this Schedule in accordance with the Terms.

#### **3. Vault Token and Floating Net Asset Value**

**CARRY is not a stablecoin.** The CARRY token represents a pro-rata claim on the Vault Pool. Its net asset value floats and is determined by reference to the value of the Eligible Underlyings held by the Vault Pool from time to time, less liabilities, accrued Protocol Fees and any adjustments made in accordance with Section 6 of the Terms.

The Company makes no representation, and gives no undertaking, that:

* the net asset value per CARRY token will be maintained at, or return to, any particular level;
* CARRY will maintain any peg, parity or fixed relationship to the U.S. dollar, to USDC, or to any other asset; or
* a User will receive on redemption an amount equal to or greater than the amount of the Loaned Asset originally deposited.

The net asset value per CARRY token may decrease as well as increase, and may decrease materially and permanently, including as a result of credit losses in the underlying portfolio. A deposit into the Carry Vault is not a bank deposit, is not capital protected, and is not covered by any deposit insurance or investor compensation scheme in any jurisdiction. Users may lose some or all of the value of their Loaned Assets.

References in this Schedule to net asset value per CARRY token mean NAV per Receipt Token as determined in accordance with Section 6 of the Terms.

#### **4. Eligible Underlying Investments**

The Carry Vault is designed to deploy Loaned Assets into the following categories of investment ("Eligible Underlyings"):

* **Tokenised private credit facilities:** on-chain representations of interests in, or exposures to, secured or unsecured lending facilities extended to institutional borrowers, including without limitation digital asset trading firms, market makers and other financial intermediaries, whether structured as direct facilities, structured credit facilities, or interests in a lending pool or fund. The Company retains sole discretion to select, add, or remove facilities, originators and on-chain protocol integrations at any time without prior notice.
* **Tokenised asset-backed credit:** on-chain representations of interests in portfolios of trade receivables, invoices, supply chain finance exposures, factoring facilities and similar short-duration self-liquidating credit assets.

#### **5. Strategy Description**

The Carry Vault pursues a diversified credit and market neutral carry strategy as follows:

(a) USDC deposited by Users is deployed across a portfolio of Eligible Underlyings selected by the Company at its discretion, with the objective of generating a return in excess of that available from short-term U.S. Treasury exposure by accepting credit risk, liquidity risk and counterparty risk. No level of return is targeted, promised or guaranteed.

(b) A Liquidity Reserve is maintained in USDC and/or other liquid assets for the purpose of supporting redemptions in the ordinary course. The size of the Liquidity Reserve is determined by the Company by reference to the redemption profile of the underlying portfolio and an internal stress assumption on redemption demand.

(c) Eligible Underlyings may be deposited as collateral on selected DeFi lending protocols to borrow additional USDC or other eligible stablecoins at the prevailing variable market rate, and the borrowed assets may be redeployed into Eligible Underlyings, with variable leverage ratios, but subject to the Target Leverage Ratio.

(d) Market neutral strategies may be executed by the Company directly or through one or more external managers, with assets held at third-party custodians, prime brokers, or trading venues, whether regulated or unregulated.

(e) Net yield generated by the strategy, less applicable Protocol Fees, is reflected in the value of the Vault Pool and accrued proportionally to Users' claims.

#### **6. Leverage Parameters**

Target Leverage Ratio: 4x

The Target Leverage Ratio represents a guideline ratio and not a commitment. Actual leverage will vary based on market conditions and the Company's risk management decisions. Leverage may be reduced or eliminated at any time without notice.

#### **7. Valuation**

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="188.03125"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Valuation Point</td><td>Daily, as at 12:00 UTC</td></tr><tr><td>Reconciliation</td><td>Weekly, on each Wednesday, or where that day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day</td></tr><tr><td>Primary valuation sources</td><td>Net asset values, marks, statements and reports supplied by the issuer, sponsor, investment manager or administrator of each Eligible Underlying; for positions held on lending protocols and trading venues, on-chain and venue-reported balances; for Liquidity Reserve assets, prevailing market price or oracle price</td></tr><tr><td>Stale valuation period</td><td>A valuation is treated as stale where it has not been refreshed within 10 Business Days after the date on which the relevant issuer, sponsor, investment manager or administrator is scheduled or reasonably expected to publish an updated valuation, or, where no such date is identifiable, within 45 days of the date as at which the most recent valuation was determined</td></tr><tr><td>Publication</td><td>NAV per Receipt Token published on the blockchain network</td></tr></tbody></table>

The determination of Net Asset Value, the application of adjustments, the designation of Excluded Assets and the suspension of valuation are governed by Section 6 of the Terms. The determination of Net Asset Value in respect of a Valuation Point may be performed after that Valuation Point, and takes effect as at that Valuation Point. In determining Net Asset Value as at a Valuation Point, the Company uses, in respect of each asset or position, the most recent valuation available to it as at that Valuation Point, which may have been determined as at an earlier date.

Users should note that valuations of Eligible Underlyings are supplied by third parties on their own methodologies and schedules, that the frequency with which an underlying valuation is refreshed may be less frequent than the Valuation Point, and that Net Asset Value determined at a Valuation Point may therefore incorporate marks which are not contemporaneous.

**Smoothing.** The Company determines NAV per Receipt Token on a smoothed basis in respect of income only. Net income identified at a Reconciliation is reflected in NAV per Receipt Token progressively over the period to the following Reconciliation, rather than in a single step. Any reduction in the value of the Vault Pool, including any adjustment made under Section 6 of the Terms, any impairment, write-down, default or loss, and the designation of any Excluded Asset, is reflected in full at the Valuation Point at which it is determined and is not smoothed. Accordingly, NAV per Receipt Token at any Valuation Point may be lower than, and will not exceed, the amount that would result from dividing Net Asset Value determined at that time by the number of Receipt Tokens then in issue. Users depositing or redeeming between Reconciliations transact at the NAV per Receipt Token then applicable, and no adjustment is made in respect of the difference. The Company may amend or discontinue the smoothing methodology, and the frequency of Reconciliation, at any time.

#### **8. Fees**

<table data-header-hidden data-search="false"><thead><tr><th width="186.8203125"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Protocol fee</td><td>1.0% per annum of Net Asset Value, excluding any Excluded Asset, accrued daily and deducted from the Vault Pool</td></tr><tr><td>Performance fee</td><td>10% of the increase in net asset value per CARRY token, subject to a high watermark, such that no Performance fee is payable until the net asset value per CARRY token exceeds the highest net asset value per CARRY token at which a Performance fee was previously crystallised.<br>Basis: return net of the Protocol fee.<br>Hurdle: 0%.<br>Crystallisation: Monthly</td></tr><tr><td>Withdrawal fee</td><td>None</td></tr><tr><td>Other fees</td><td>Subject to any new fee types introduced in accordance with the Fee Change mechanics in the Terms</td></tr></tbody></table>

Fees and expenses charged at the level of an underlying fund, facility, external manager or trading venue are borne by the Vault Pool in addition to the fees stated above and are reflected in the net asset value of the relevant Eligible Underlying. Such fees are not rebated to Users and are not included in the fee levels stated in this Section.

**Suspension.** The Company may suspend the determination of Net Asset Value and redemptions in respect of the Carry Vault in the circumstances set out in Section 6 of the Terms.

All redemption obligations are limited to the User's pro-rata share of the Vault Pool at the time of processing and are subject to the limited recourse and extinguishment provisions of the Terms. Processing timelines are non-binding operational targets only.

#### **10. Vault-Specific Risk Factors**

The Carry Vault's strategy involves deploying USDC into a diversified portfolio of credit and market neutral exposures, including private credit facilities, asset-backed and receivables-backed credit, secured consumer credit, hardware-collateralised credit, and hedged basis positions, and may involve using those positions as collateral to borrow additional assets on DeFi lending markets. This creates a distinct set of economic, credit, liquidity, valuation and operational risks that are additional to, and separate from, the smart contract and operational risks described elsewhere in the Terms. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

**No Peg and Floating Net Asset Value.** As set out in Section 3, CARRY is not a stablecoin and carries no expectation of redemption at par. The net asset value per CARRY token may fall below the value of the Loaned Assets deposited by a User, and any such fall may be permanent. Users should not treat CARRY as a cash-equivalent or store-of-value instrument.

**Credit Risk and Risk of Principal Loss.** A substantial portion of the Vault Pool is exposed to the creditworthiness of private borrowers, originators and facility sponsors. These exposures are not government obligations, are generally unrated, and in many cases are not secured, or are secured only on assets whose value is itself volatile or difficult to realise. A default, restructuring, fraud, or deterioration in the credit quality of an underlying borrower or originator will reduce the value of the Vault Pool and may result in a permanent loss of principal to Users. Historic performance of an originator or facility is not indicative of future performance.

**Private Credit Opacity and Idiosyncratic Risk.** Private credit exposures are typically not traded on any market, are valued infrequently, and carry limited public disclosure. The Company's assessment of an exposure depends substantially on information provided by the originator or issuer, which may be incomplete, delayed, or inaccurate. Losses may become apparent only after a material delay, and may crystallise abruptly rather than progressively.

**Recovery, Enforcement and Insolvency Risk.** Where an underlying borrower defaults, recovery depends on off-chain enforcement against collateral or claims in jurisdictions which may be slow, costly, or unfavourable to creditors. The Vault Pool may hold an indirect interest through a tokenised wrapper rather than a direct contractual claim against the underlying borrower. In the insolvency of an intermediate issuer, servicer or special purpose vehicle, the Vault Pool may rank behind other creditors, may have no proprietary claim to underlying assets, and may recover substantially less than the carrying value of its position, or nothing.

**Liquidity Mismatch and Suspension Risk.** The Carry Vault's liabilities to Users are subject to the redemption terms in Section 9, while its assets are subject to the redemption terms of the underlying issuers, which are typically weekly, monthly, or longer, and which may themselves be gated or suspended. This mismatch is inherent to the strategy. In periods of elevated redemption demand or market stress, the Liquidity Reserve may be exhausted, and redemptions may be delayed for extended periods or suspended entirely. A User may be unable to exit at a time of their choosing, and may be compelled to remain exposed to a deteriorating portfolio.

**Valuation Risk and Net Asset Value Asymmetry.** Many Eligible Underlyings are valued by reference to marks produced by the issuer, its administrator, or an oracle, rather than by observable market prices. Such marks may be stale, may be produced on differing methodologies, and may be systematically optimistic, in particular where a position is impaired but has not yet been written down. Certain instruments publish valuations on an asymmetric basis, recognising accrued income promptly while recognising credit deterioration only on realisation. Users who deposit or redeem at a net asset value that is subsequently shown to have been overstated or understated bear the consequences of that inaccuracy, and no adjustment or compensation will be made.

**Adjustment and Deferred Repayment Risk.** The Company may apply haircuts, discounts or alternative valuations to positions, and may designate impaired positions as Excluded Assets, in each case in accordance with Section 6 of the Terms. The application of any such adjustment will reduce the net asset value per CARRY token immediately and may do so materially. A User redeeming after an adjustment receives the adjusted value, notwithstanding that a higher value may subsequently be recovered. Where a position has been designated as an Excluded Asset, the portion of the amount otherwise payable to a User which is attributable to that position is deferred, and becomes payable only if and when that position is realised, which may be after a substantial delay or not at all. A User whose CARRY is repaid after a designation remains entitled to its Deferred Amount but receives no value in respect of the Excluded Asset at the time of repayment. Holders of CARRY may accordingly hold differing total entitlements depending on whether they held CARRY at the time of designation.

**Counterparty, Venue and Custody Risk.** The Vault Pool's assets and positions are held with or through third parties, including tokenisation platforms, fund administrators, custodians, prime brokers, centralised and decentralised trading venues, and external managers. The failure, insolvency, fraud, operational breakdown, or regulatory suspension of any such party may result in the loss of assets, the inability to close or transfer positions, or an extended freeze of assets. Assets held on unregulated venues may not be segregated from the assets of the venue and may not be recoverable in an insolvency.

**Market Neutral Strategy Risk.** Strategies described as market neutral are hedged, not riskless. Returns depend on the persistence of a favourable basis or funding rate, which may compress, invert, or turn negative. Hedges may fail to perform as intended because of divergence between the hedged instruments, differences in settlement or margin mechanics between venues, exchange downtime, oracle failure, or the imposition of position limits. A sharp price movement may trigger margin calls or forced liquidation of one leg of a position while the offsetting leg remains open, converting a hedged position into a directional one and producing losses substantially in excess of the expected return of the strategy.

**Floating Rate Risk on Underlying Assets.** A portion of the Vault's assets generate yields that are variable, whether linked to SOFR, to a central bank policy rate, or to another floating reference rate. T-Bill MMF positions track short-term U.S. Treasury rates, which are set by macroeconomic conditions and central bank policy. A decline in the applicable reference rate will directly reduce the yield generated by the relevant asset and will reduce the return available to Users.

**Floating Rate Risk on Borrowings.** The borrowing rates on DeFi lending markets are variable and are determined algorithmically by on-chain supply and demand dynamics. Rates can rise sharply and rapidly in response to periods of market stress, elevated utilisation of lending pools, or changes in protocol risk parameters. A material increase in borrowing costs will reduce the net yield available to Users and may cause the Vault's strategy to become unprofitable. The Vault does not guarantee any fixed spread between its asset yield and its cost of borrowing, and both may move independently and adversely at the same time.

**Leverage Risk.** The use of leverage amplifies both potential returns and potential losses. The Vault's leveraged positions are subject to maintenance margin and loan-to-value requirements on DeFi lending protocols. If the value of collateral declines relative to outstanding borrowings, whether due to credit deterioration, spread widening, de-peg, rate movements, or protocol parameter changes, the Vault may be subject to forced partial or full liquidation of its collateral at prevailing market prices.

**Stablecoin and USD-Neutral Asset De-Peg Risk.** The Vault holds, and may borrow, USDC and/or other stablecoins whose on-chain value may deviate from their USD peg. Short-term peg deviations affect the effective cost of borrowing and net yield. The Vault may also interact with assets described as "USD-neutral" or designed to maintain a one-to-one peg with the U.S. dollar. Any deviation of such an asset from a value of one U.S. dollar, whether due to redemption gate events, reserve insufficiency, smart contract failure, regulatory action, or general market dislocation, will directly affect the net asset value of the Vault and may cause losses to Users. In severe de-peg scenarios, the Vault's collateral value may fall below the value of its outstanding borrowings, triggering forced liquidations. Users should note that "USD-neutral" or "stablecoin" labelling provides no guarantee of value stability.

**Regulatory Risk in Respect of Underlying Assets.** The underlying credit assets and their originators are subject to regulation in multiple jurisdictions, including in relation to lending, consumer credit, securities offerings and the regulatory treatment of tokenised instruments. Regulatory change or enforcement action affecting an originator, issuer or venue may impair the value, transferability or redeemability of an Eligible Underlying, or may require the Vault to dispose of a position at an unfavourable price.

#### **11. Amendments to this Schedule**

The Company may amend this Schedule at any time by publishing an updated version on the Platform. Material amendments will be subject to the notice periods specified in the relevant sections above or, where not specified, to the general fee change mechanics in the Terms. Non-material amendments (including but not limited to typographical corrections, smart contract address updates following a migration, and administrative details) may be made immediately upon publication. Your continued use of the Carry Vault after the effective date of any amendment constitutes acceptance of the amended Schedule.
