FOR VALUE RECEIVED, CarrierEQ, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of Via Varejo S/A, a corporation organized under the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil (the “Holder”), the principal sum of US$2,500,000, together with interest thereon from the date of this Note. Interest will accrue at the Applicable Rate. Unless earlier converted into Primary Shares pursuant to Section 2.1 of that certain Convertible Note and Call Option Agreement dated as of September 11, 2018, by and among the Company, the Holder and the other parties thereto (as it may be amended, the “Purchase Agreement”), the principal and accrued interest of this Note will be due and payable by the Company on the Maturity Date, subject to conversion, cancellation or reduction pursuant to Section 2 of the Purchase Agreement.

This Note is one of a series of Notes issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and capitalized terms not defined herein will have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

1.

Payment. All payments will be made in lawful money of the United States of America at the principal office of the Company, or at such other place as the Holder may from time to time designate in writing to the Company in the United States. Payment will be credited first to accrued interest due and payable, with any remainder applied to principal. Prepayment of principal, together with accrued interest, may not be made without the written consent of the Holder, except in the event of a Non-Conversion Termination Event.

2.

Security. This Note is a general unsecured obligation of the Company.

The Company hereby agrees, and by accepting this Note, the Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees, that so long as any Senior Debt is outstanding, upon notice from the holders of such Senior Debt (the “Senior Creditors”) to the Company that an event of default, or any event which the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would constitute an event of default, has occurred under the terms of the Senior Debt (a “Default Notice”), the Company will not make, and the Holder will not receive or retain, any payment under this Note. Nothing in this paragraph will preclude or prohibit the Holder from receiving and retaining any payment hereunder unless and until the Holder has received a Default Notice

 

(which will be effective until waived in writing by the Senior Creditors) or from converting this Note into Primary Shares.

4.

Conversion of the Notes. This Note will be convertible into Primary Shares in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and in that event and in any other event where principal amount of this Note is otherwise reduced in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement (other than as a result of payment of principal by the Company pursuant to Section 1 hereof), this Note shall be set aside and superseded by a replacement note reflecting the principal and accrued interest outstanding immediately following the consummation of any such conversion or other reduction in principal and such replacement note shall otherwise be subject to the same terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Purchase Agreement.

5.

Acceleration Termination. Upon the occurrence of and continuation of an Event of Default by the Company, Holder may, at its option, subject to any applicable cure period and other procedures set forth in Section 8 of the Purchase Agreement, by written notice to the Company (a) declare the unpaid principal amount together with all accrued interest thereon and any other amounts payable hereunder, immediately due and payable, and/or (b) exercise any or all of its rights, powers or remedies under Purchase Agreement or applicable Law; provided, however, that, upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event, the unpaid principal and accrued interest under the Notes shall automatically accelerate and become immediately due and payable in its entirety.

6.

Cancellation Termination Event. Upon the occurrence of a Cancellation Termination Event as defined in the Purchase Agreement, the Notes shall be cancelled and cease to be outstanding, and the Company shall immediately cease to have any obligations thereunder, including any obligation to pay principal and accrued interest in relation thereto or any other payment obligation under the Notes of any type or kind.

7.

Amendments and Waivers; Resolutions of Dispute; Notice. The amendment or waiver of any term of this Note, the resolution of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Note and the provision of notice among the Company and the Holder will be governed by the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

8.

Successors and Assigns. The Company and the Holder may not assign or delegate, as applicable, this Note or any of its rights or obligations under this Note except set forth in Section 10.1 of the Purchase Agreement, and any purported assignment in violation of such Section 10.1 shall be null and void, except permitted transfers to Holder’s Affiliates. Any transfer of this Note may be effected only pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and by surrender of this Note to the Company and reissuance of a new note to the transferee. The Holder and any subsequent holder of this Note receives this Note subject to the foregoing terms and conditions, and agrees to comply with the foregoing terms and conditions for the benefit of the Company and any other holder (or their respective successors or assigns).

9.

Officers, Directors and Stockholders not Liable. In no event will any officer, director or stockholder of the Company be liable for any amounts due and payable pursuant to this Note.

10.

Limitation on Interest. In no event will any interest charged, collected or reserved under this Note exceed the maximum rate then permitted by applicable law, and if any payment made by the Company under this Note exceeds such maximum rate, then such excess sum will be credited by the Holders as a payment of principal.

11.

Choice of Law. This Note, and all matters arising out of or relating to this Note, whether sounding in contract, tort, or statute will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal

 

laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

12.

Approval. The Company hereby represents that its board of directors, in the exercise of its fiduciary duty, has approved the Company’s execution of this Note based upon a reasonable belief that the principal provided hereunder is appropriate for the Company after reasonable inquiry concerning the Company’s financing objectives and financial situation.

EXHIBIT 4.3

Amended and Restated AirToken Terms & Conditions

Effective as of March 15, 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 will be deemed effective immediately upon your acquisition of AirTokens.  By purchasing AirTokens from us during the original token sale or otherwise acquiring AirTokens, you agree that you have read and 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.  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 an ERC721 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.

[RESERVED]

4.

Risks

You understand and accept that there are material risks associated with using, owning, acquiring or transferring AirTokens, including those risk factors set forth in Item 1A of the Company’s Form 10 Registration Statement, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

5.

Security

a.

Your Security.  You are responsible for implementing reasonable measures for securing the wallet, vault or other storage mechanism you use to receive and hold Tokens you purchase 

 

from us, including any requisite private key(s) or other credentials necessary to access such storage mechanism(s).

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 Tokens, 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.

b.

Additional Information.  By accepting these Terms and Conditions, you agree that personal data about you may be collected and stored as well as processed for administering and maintaining our business or as otherwise needed in connection with the operation or development of the Airfox Platform. Therefore, you will provide to us, immediately upon our request, information that we, in our sole discretion, deem to be required to maintain compliance with any federal, state, local, domestic or foreign law, regulation or policy.  Such information may include a passport, driver’s license, utility bill, photographs of you, government identification cards, or sworn statements.

c.

Your Information.  We may use aggregate statistical information about your activity, including your activity on Airfox Platform and logins to various websites, for marketing or any other purpose in our sole discretion.  We may use your internet protocol address to verify your ownership, acquisition or transfer of AirTokens.  However, we will not release your personally identifying information to any third-party without your consent, except as not prohibited by law or as set forth in these Terms and Conditions and any of our privacy policies in effect from time to time.

6.

Taxation

a.

You bear the sole responsibility for any and all tax consequences related directly or indirectly to your acquisition, use, ownership, transfer or sale of the AirTokens.  

b.

By acquiring, using, owning, transferring or selling AirTokens, and to the extent permitted by law, you agree not to hold the Company or its affiliates or any third-party (including developers, auditors, contractors or founders) liable for any tax liability associated with or arising from the your acquisition, use, ownership, transfer or sale of AirTokens or any other action or transaction related to the AirToken Project.

11.

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 bring an individual action in small claims court or 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, 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 coiporate@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 14, commence an arbitration proceeding or, to the extent specifically provided for in Section 14(a), file a claim in court.

d.

Federal Arbitration Act.  These Terms affect interstate commerce and the enforceability of this Section 14 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.

We may amend, modify, replace or supplement these Terms and Conditions at any time in our sole discretion by posting a revised version on the Company’s website, other channel we make available or, only if you have provided us with an email address, by email.
