Effective as of June 20, 2019

PLEASE READ THESE AMENDED AND RESTATED AIRTOKEN TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY. NOTE THAT SECTION 11 CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE AMENDED AND RESTATED AIRTOKEN TERMS AND CONDITIONS, DO NOT ACQUIRE, HOLD OR USE AIRTOKENS.

Your acquisition and use of the ERC-20 tokens known as AirTokens issued by CarrierEQ, Inc. d/b/a Airfox, a Delaware corporation (“Airfox,” “Company,” “we,” or “us”) and to participate in the “AirToken Project” is subject to these Amended and Restated Terms AirToken Terms and Conditions (“Terms and Conditions”), which supersede and replace in its entirety any prior terms and conditions, including those Amended and Restated Terms of Sale. Each of you and Company is a “Party,” and together the “Parties.”

These Terms and Conditions are effective as of the date written above. If you purchased AirTokens from us during the original token sale or otherwise acquired AirTokens, you agree that you are bound by these Terms and Conditions and all terms incorporated by reference, including any of our privacy policies in effect from time to time. You are advised to read these terms and conditions in their entirety. If you have any questions regarding these Terms and Conditions, please contact us at corporate@airfox.io.

You and Company agree as follows:

1.

Intended Purpose and Planned Use of AirTokens on the Airfox Platform

a.

We are developing a software technology platform (the “AirFox Platform”) initially consisting of two applications: a digital wallet application (the “Airfox Wallet”) and an alternative credit scoring and lending application. The Airfox Platform is designed and built as a Software as Service (or SaaS) offering. We expect to generate revenue from these applications from fixed recurring fees, transaction fees, third party fees and interest income. Our initial markets are expected to be the underbanked and unbanked markets in Brazil.

b.

Airfox Wallet. The Airfox Wallet is a digital banking application that holds users’ cash and can be used to process a variety of consumer transactions. It is designed to meet the needs of those who primarily use cash because financial services are inaccessible to them. Airfox has partnered with more than 300,000 physical locations throughout Brazil (including post offices and banks) to allow users to convert funds from physical to digital currency. Airfox customers can walk into a location, make a deposit, and see the value added to their mobile wallet. The funds are made available for use within 48 hours.

c.

Alternative Credit Scoring. We are in the process of developing an alternative credit scoring system using the information on financial transactions and data on other interactions from users’ smartphones that are collected by our Airfox Wallet application. The data collected will be analyzed by Airfox’s proprietary machine-learning algorithms, which will examine the user’s financial and behavioral trends to generate personalized credit scores for each customer, regardless of whether the customer has a formal credit history. We will leverage the insights from our alternative credit scoring algorithm to offer lower interest rates than traditional financial institutions on personal loans and working capital loans for small businesses pursuant to our peer-to-peer lending application described below. Also, for a fee, we will offer credit scoring as a service to third parties such as landlords doing background checks on prospective tenants, telecom companies determining eligibility for payment plans, and utility companies determining eligibility for establishing new service.

d.

Peer to Peer Lending. As our Airfox Wallet user base grows, we intend to evolve the AirToken Platform into a fully functioning, blockchain-based, peer-to-peer lending application that will enable 

 

anyone from around the world to provide capital for a microloan to a diversified cohort of borrowers. Our technology is expected to harness the decentralized power of the Ethereum blockchain to create a digital ledger of the user’s behavioral and transactional data to fund a new financial asset class from a global pool of lenders seeking to make socially impactful microloans or diversified, high-yield returns. Airfox plans to assume the role of the microloan underwriter and facilitate requests for loans from users who apply via the Airfox Platform. Airfox plans to issue the user’s debt in a tokenized smart contract as a non-fungible token representing the microloan note. The note would then be held or traded on a secondary market. As time progresses, we plan to facilitate the AirToken exchange process for lenders and borrowers abstracting away most technical details, which we expect will allow for institutional, enterprise, and mass adoption. Our backend systems should enable the Airfox Platform to convert lender’s fiat currency into AirToken and immediately transfer them to the borrower’s Airfox Wallet, wherein it would be immediately converted into local fiat currency within their Airfox Wallet balance. The borrower could then access the capital as needed. When their first repayment installment becomes due, the borrower will be able to deposit cash at a local store or ATM directly into their Airfox Wallet and repay the loan from the Airfox Platform. Eventually, the borrower’s AirFox Wallet will be integrated with the platform and users will be able to purchase AirTokens on-line to transfer back into the lender’s account.

2.

AirToken Project Expectations and Development

a.

You understand and accept that you have no expectation of influence over the management, development or deployment of the AirToken Project, and that the scope of the AirToken Project (including any contemplated functionality of the AirTokens) may change at any time, in Airfox’s sole discretion, without any notice or disclosure.

b.

You understand and accept that the AirToken Project will need to go through substantial development changes and revisions. You understand and accept that as part of the development, an upgrade of the Airfox Platform may be required and that, if you decide not to participate in such upgrade, you may no longer use any AirTokens held by you and that non-­upgraded AirTokens may lose their functionality (if any) in full.

3.

You will implement reasonable and appropriate measures designed to secure access to (i) any device connected with the email address associated with your account, (ii) private keys required to access any relevant Ethereum address or your AirTokens, and (iii) your username, password and any other login or identifying credentials. In the event that you are no longer in possession of any device connected with your account or are not able to provide your login or identifying credentials, we may, in our sole discretion, and only if we are able, grant access to your account to any person providing additional credentials to us. We reserve the right to determine the additional credentials required, which may include a sworn, notarized statement of identity.

c.

Dispute Resolution; Arbitration

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH COMPANY AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.

a.

Binding Arbitration. Except for any disputes, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, demands or proceedings (collectively, “Disputes”) in which either Party seeks to (a) bring an individual action in small claims court, or (b) seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents, or (c) bring an action for claims under the federal securities laws, you and Company (i) waive your and Company’s respective rights to have any and all Disputes arising from or related to these Terms resolved in a court, and (ii) waive your and Company’s respective rights to a jury trial. Instead, you and Company will arbitrate Disputes through binding arbitration (which is the referral of a Dispute to one or more persons charged with reviewing the Dispute and making a final and binding determination to resolve it instead of having the Dispute decided by a judge or jury in court).

 

b.

No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions or Representative Actions. Any Dispute arising out of or related to these Terms is personal to you and Company and will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding. There will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an individual may resolve a Dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Further, a Dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals.

c.

Notice; Informal Dispute Resolution. Each Party will notify the other Party in writing of any arbitrable or small claims Dispute within thirty (30) days of the date it arises, so that the Parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally. Notice to Company shall be sent by e­mail to Company at corporate@airfox.io Notice to you shall be by email to the then­-current email address in your Account. Your notice must include (i) your name, postal address, email address and telephone number, (ii) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute, and (iii) the specific relief that you are seeking. If you and Company cannot agree how to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the date notice is received by the applicable Party, then either you or Company may, as appropriate and in accordance with this Section 11, commence an arbitration proceeding or, to the extent specifically provided for in Section 11(a), file a claim in court.

d.

Federal Arbitration Act. These Terms affect interstate commerce and the enforceability of this Section 11 will be both substantively and procedurally governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

e.

Process. Any arbitration will occur in Boston, Massachusetts. Arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”), which are hereby incorporated by reference. The state and federal courts located in Boston, Massachusetts will have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award. You may also litigate a Dispute in the small claims court located in the county where you reside if the Dispute meets the requirements to be heard in small claims court.

f.

Authority of Arbitrator. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the applicable JAMS rules, the arbitrator will have (i) the exclusive authority and jurisdiction to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding a Dispute, including the determination of whether a Dispute is arbitrable, and (ii) the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.

g.

Rules of JAMS. The rules of JAMS and additional information about JAMS are available on the JAMS website. By agreeing to be bound by these Terms, you either (i) acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the rules of JAMS, or (ii) waive your opportunity to read the rules of JAMS and any claim that the rules of JAMS are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

12.

Governing Law and Venue

These Terms will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Any Dispute between the Parties arising out or relating to these Terms that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in courts of Boston, Massachusetts.

13.

Severability

If any term, clause or provision of these Terms is held unlawful, void or unenforceable, then that term, clause or provision will be severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity or enforceability of any remaining part of that term, clause or provision, or any other term, clause or provision of these Terms.

 

14.

Modifications to the Terms.

The terms “commercial item”, “commercial computer software,” “commercial computer software documentation,” and “technical data” are defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation and the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement.
