Description of Service and Pricing.

Our Website is a decentralized platform that allows users to (i) engage in Ethereum staking using a liquid staking mechanism and (ii) use our service known as Liquid that allows users stake certain digital assets via staking services provided on behalf of us (“Liquid” and collectively, the “Services”). Our Services enable users to earn staking rewards while retaining the flexibility to trade their staked assets at any time. The Services are optional. Your instruction to stake your digital assets does not affect the ownership of your digital assets in any way. Rewards are determined by the protocols of the applicable network. If you use the Liquid Service, such digital assets that you elect to stake will be deposited into one or more vaults through Veda (for a description, see https://veda.tech/) (“Veda”) and staked on your behalf. You acknowledge and agree that we make no representations with respect to Veda’s services, including its vaults, and your use thereof, including through the Liquid Service is entirely at your own risk. You agree that your use of Veda’s services, including its vaults via the Liquid Service, is governed by the terms and conditions of Veda available at https://veda.tech/. For detailed description of the Services please read our Whitepaper, found at https://etherfi.gitbook.io/etherfi/ether.fi-whitepaper/introduction.

The Website may charge fees for usage, such as staking, trading, and other transactions based on our price plan (“Price Plan”). The Price Plan is available as per Exhibit B. We reserve the right to modify our Price Plan and fee structure at any time, in our sole discretion.

Addition to our fees, you may be charged a network fee to have the transaction message delivered through the Middleware and recorded on the appropriate blockchain.

You may be able to acquire points through your use of the Services (“Points”). Any balance of Points shown in your account constitutes only a measurement of the extent of your limited license to Points. You do not own the Points. Points are not a substitute for currency or medium of exchange, and do not have an equivalent value in real currency. You are not allowed to transfer Points outside of the Services. You are not allowed to sublicense, trade, sell or attempt to sell Points for money or other consideration, or exchange Points for value of any kind outside of the Services. Any such transfer or attempted transfer is prohibited and may cause the Points to be voided. Points are not redeemable, refundable or eligible for any currency or anything else of value. We may offer certain functions of the Services to users that have accumulated certain Points, but the availability of such functions is subject to change at any time in our sole discretion. We grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, limited license and right to use the Points in accordance with these Terms of Use while we offer the Services and your account is in good standing.

The Interface and the Middleware. The Website provides access to the Interface and Middleware.

The Interface aggregates and publishes publicly available information about liquid staking technology in a user-friendly format (“Interface”). It offers interaction methods that enable users to perform transactions in connection with the Middleware (see definition below). The Interface generates a draft transaction message, which users may use independently with a third-party wallet application or device to conduct transactions on the relevant blockchains. These draft transaction messages are designed to accomplish the user’s operational goals as expressed through their interactions. Users must review and authorize all transaction messages with their private cryptographic key, inaccessible to the Interface or the Interface maintainers. The Interface does not own, operate or control the blockchain systems, wallets, devices, validator nodes, or the Middleware. For the purposes of this Terms of Use, the “Middleware” is a set of smart contracts which automatically execution functions when you interact with them, and that are freely licensed software source code available to the public.

The Interface may display information related to Ethereum and blockchain technology, such as blockchain transactions, network statistics, and price information. This information is for informational purposes only and we do not guarantee its accuracy, completeness, or usefulness. You are solely responsible for any actions you take based on such information. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the availability of this data at any time, without notice or liability to you.

User Authorization and Transaction Broadcasting.

User-authorized message will be broadcasted to blockchain systems through the wallet application or device, and the user may pay a network fee to have the transaction message delivered through the Middleware and recorded on the appropriate blockchain. The Interface maintainers and the Interface are not agents or intermediaries of the user. They do not store, have access to, or control any tokens, private keys, passwords, accounts, or other user property. All transactions relating to the Middleware are executed and recorded solely through the user’s interactions with the respective blockchains. The Interface maintainers do not collect any compensation from the user for the use of the Interface.

Permitted Use.

You may use the Interface for informational purposes only, to aid your own research, due diligence, and decision-making. You must verify the accuracy of any information and transaction messages before using them.

You acknowledge that violation of these terms may expose you to legal liability, both criminal and civil, and monetary damages, as well as termination of your account. You must immediately notify us of any fraudulent, unauthorized, illegal or suspicious use of the Services or any other breach of security or unauthorized or illegal activity that you reasonably suspect.

Representations and Warranties. By accessing the Website you represent and warrant that:

(a) you have read and understood the Terms of Use, including the Risk Disclosure Statement.

(f) you are not a resident, citizen, national or agent of, or an entity organized, incorporated or doing business in, Belarus, Burundi, Crimea and Sevastopol, Cuba, Democratic Republic of Congo, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Venezuela, Zimbabwe or any other country to which the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union or any of its member states or the United Nations or any of its member states embargoes goods or imposes similar sanctions (“Restricted Countries”).

(g) you agree not to: (i) make any representations, warranties or guarantees on our behalf or with respect to the Company, the Website or any content or data contained on the Website; (ii) make any false or misleading representations with regard to the Company or the Website or any content or data contained on the Website; or (iii) participate or engage in any illegal, deceptive, misleading, fraudulent, unethical or improper practices on, through, by means of or with respect to the Website.

(h) you possess adequate financial and technical knowledge to understand the inherent risks associated with using cryptographic and blockchain-based systems, and purchasing and holding cryptocurrency. These include, but are not limited to, risk of losing access to cryptocurrency due to slashing, loss of private key(s), custodial error or purchaser error, risk of mining or blockchain attacks, risk of hacking and security weaknesses, risk of unfavorable regulatory intervention in one or more jurisdictions, risk related to token taxation, risk of personal information disclosure, risk of uninsured losses, volatility risks, and unanticipated risks. You should have a sufficient understanding of digital assets such as Ether (ETH), and other digital tokens such as those following the Ethereum Token Standard (ERC-20). You understand that the markets for digital assets are nascent and highly volatile, and that various risk factors such as adoption, speculation, technology, security, and regulation can impact their value. You also acknowledge the risk of fake tokens, including those that falsely claim to represent projects. Smart contract transactions are executed automatically and are irreversible once confirmed. You acknowledge that the cost and speed of transacting with blockchain-based systems such as Ethereum can vary significantly, and you accept the risks associated with selecting to trade in expert modes, which may result in price slippage and higher costs. You assume full responsibility for all the risks associated with accessing and using our Website and the Services, and understand that we are not responsible for any of these variables or risks, do not own or control the protocol, and cannot be held liable for any losses resulting from your use of our Website or the Services.

We are not responsible for managing and maintaining the security of your cryptocurrency wallet nor for any unauthorized access to or use of your cryptocurrency wallet. If you notice any unauthorized or suspicious activity in your cryptocurrency wallet that seems to be related to this Website, please notify us immediately.

(k) cryptocurrencies and non-fungible tokens are cryptographically signed to keep them secure, however, this encrypted coding merely identifies the digital asset itself, without identifying the underlying owner. Thus, the holder of the cryptocurrency encryption keys becomes its owner, and there is no coding in the asset identifying who the rightful owner is. While the cryptographic signatures are meant to keep the cryptocurrency secure, the lack of an identity feature means if a cryptocurrency is stolen from the wallet, there is no way for the public to identify it. You agree and acknowledge that the Company is not responsible for any theft or loss of asset occurred in connection with using the Website or the desktop application even if the loss of funds was a result of errors in protocol codes that can lead to a freeze of assets or inability to collect tokens, or cyberattack that exploited certain vulnerabilities of the Website.

(l) when digital asset is sent to a third-party, such transaction is completed on the Blockchains. This means that such transaction is irreversible, and we do not have the ability to reverse or recall any transaction once initiated. You accept and acknowledge that we will not be responsible for the risks of engaging in any transactions relating to your digital assets with third parties. You bear all responsibility for any losses that might be incurred as a result of sending digital assets to an incorrect or unintended address.

(m) NFTs issued by the Company are not securities or financial instruments and are not offered for investment purposes. The commercial or market value of the NFTs may materially diminish in value as a result of a variety of things, including negative publicity associated with the Company.

(q) you are solely responsible for determining the nature, potential value, suitability, and appropriateness of the Services and the related risks for yourself, and that we do not give advice or recommendations regarding our Services, including regarding the suitability and appropriateness of using the Services. You agree and understand that you access and use this Website at your own risk; however, this brief statement and the Risk Disclosure Statement do not disclose all of the risks associated with the use of the Website and other digital assets. You agree and understand that we will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience when using our Website.

(r) interacting with smart contracts, there is always a residual risk of the smart contract containing a vulnerability or bug.

(s) the share of staked assets attributed to a validator can be slashed in case the validator signs more than one block at the same time. You agree and understand that we are not responsible for any loss of funds or rewards arising out of double signing or unavailability.

(t) understand and acknowledge that Company provides a decentralized staking protocol that allows Ethereum holders to earn rewards by staking their assets on the Ethereum Beacon Chain through smart contracts.

*Staking rewards come from the underlying blockchain protocol or network.* The Company facilitates staking by providing a decentralized staking protocol that allows Ethereum holders to earn rewards by staking their assets on the Ethereum Beacon Chain through smart contracts. The Company does not custody or manage any property of its users to generate staking rewards, and each user is responsible for generating their own staking rewards.

No information set out on the Website or during the provision of the Services can be construed as investment advice, recommendation or representation about the suitability or appropriateness of any financial product or service.

You are responsible for ensuring that any details entered you enter in connection with a transaction using any smart contracts are accurate and complete.

EXHIBIT B, PRICING PLAN

In this pricing plan, we outline Ether.Fi SEZC's ("ether.fi," "us," "we," or "our") pricing terms when you interact with the Ether.fi Protocol and any related desktop application including any content, functionality, and services offered on or through ether.fi or our desktop application (the “Website”). This Pricing Plan applies to ether.fi and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, encompassing all our services and products.

  • *Node Operators Fee*: Node operators play a critical role in the security and stability of the network. To incentivize their participation, 5% of the total staking rewards, inclusive of any and all execution layer rewards, will be allocated to Node Operators. This fee helps cover their operational costs and ensures a strong and reliable network infrastructure.
  • *Protocol Fee*: The protocol itself requires resources for development, maintenance, and ongoing improvements. To sustain and enhance the protocol's capabilities, 5% of the total staking rewards, inclusive of any and all execution layer rewards, will be allocated to the Protocol. This fee is essential for long-term sustainability and innovation within the ecosystem.
  • *Stakers' Rewards*: The primary focus of the staking protocol is to provide rewards to stakers who contribute their tokens to secure the network. Accordingly, 90% of the total staking rewards, inclusive of any and all execution layer rewards, will be distributed to stakers. This encourages widespread participation and ensures that those who stake their assets in the protocol receive the majority of the rewards.

This pricing plan ensures a fair and balanced distribution of rewards among Node Operators, the protocol development team, and the stakers who help secure the Ethereum network. It fosters a healthy ecosystem that encourages participation and innovation while maintaining the network's security and reliability.
