The website located at https://www.akru.co (the "Website" or "AKRU Platform") is published, owned, and operated by AKRU INC its affiliates and related entities ("AKRU," "Company," "we," "us," and "our"). These Terms of Use (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of the Website.
Your use of, and participation in, certain services may be subject to additional terms ("Supplemental Terms") and such Supplemental Terms will either be listed in the Terms of Use or will be presented to you for your acceptance when you sign up to use the supplemental services. If the Terms of Use are inconsistent with the Supplemental Terms, the Supplemental Terms shall control with respect to such services.
By accessing, browsing, submitting information to and/or using the Website, you agree and acknowledge on your own behalf (referred to throughout the Terms as "you") that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by these Terms and to comply with all applicable laws including, without limitation, all federal, state and local tax and tariff laws, regulations, and/or directives. If you do not agree to the Terms, please do not use the Website
Purpose of the Website. The Website provides services ("Services") and online tools to manage the offering and sale of private securities (the "Offering") of issuers ("Issuers"). The Services also assist Issuers and investors in monitoring compliance for secondary trading through the use of Avalanche blockchain protocol and associated functionality. This is done through our implementation of the R-Token standard to produce a token that provides permissioned ERC-20 smart contracts that algorithmically enforce transfer restrictions with regard to proposed securities transfers. The Services form only a part of the services required for an Issuer to complete its Offering. In connection with the Offering, the Issuer may need to enter into an agreement with other third party providers to perform the other functions of the Offering ("Issuer Vendors"), including but not limited to, those that provide (a) services to receive, return, or escrow cryptocurrency or fiat currency for Registered Users (defined below), (b) broker-dealer/placement agent services, and (c) services to convert the cryptocurrency into fiat currency. In connection with providing the Services to you, we also engage AKRU Vendors (as defined below) to provide certain services to us.
The Website is provided for informational purposes and the purposes of enabling communication between you and AKRU. The information provided is intended to be general in nature and does not necessarily address all the terms, exclusions, and conditions applicable to our products and services.
We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of this information at any particular time. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk. AKRU disclaims all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such content by you or any other visitor to our Website, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents. Any information you provide or that is collected by AKRU through the Website shall be handled in accordance with the Website's Privacy Policy, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
Use of the Website. AKRU grants you a non-exclusive right to access and use the Website and the data, material, content or information herein (collectively, the "Content") solely for your personal use. Your right to access and use the Website shall be limited to non-commercial purposes unless you are otherwise expressly authorized by AKRU to use the Website for commercial purposes. You agree to use the Website only for lawful purposes, comply with all rules governing any transactions on and through the Website and comply with applicable laws.
User Account Responsibility. To access and use the Services, you will need to first register for an account ("Account") to become a registered user ("Registered User") asper the process described below. The process to become a Registered User includes you providing identification and Offering qualification information. By creating an Account, you agree to (a) provide accurate, current and complete Account information about yourself, and obtain all necessary consents from third parties prior to providing any personal information about such third parties, or otherwise establish a valid legal basis for the provision of such personal information to us under applicable law, (b) maintain and promptly update from time to time as necessary your Account information, (c) maintain the security of your password and accept all risks of unauthorized access to your Account and the information you provide to us, and (d) immediately notify us if you discover or otherwise suspect any security breaches related to the AKRU Platform, or your Account. You represent that your use of the Services will not involve use in connection with any unlawful or otherwise undesirable activity (as determined by AKRU in its absolute and sole discretion), including, but not limited to dealing in counterfeit goods, gambling, money laundering, or drug activity. AKRU will block multiple Accounts of the same user. Also, you agree that you will not: (i) create another Account if we've disabled one you had unless you have our written permission first, (ii) buy, sell, rent or lease access to your Account or username unless you have our written permission first, (iii) share your Account password with anyone, or (iv) log in or try to login to access the AKRU Platform through unauthorized third party applications or clients.
Before you become a Registered User, AKRU or its third party vendors ("AKRU Vendors") will run identity verification and compliance checks (including without limitation, any checks we deem reasonably necessary to assess legal compliance (including the risk of your involvement in money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or any other financial crime)) pursuant to applicable laws and Issuer requirements for accreditation based on the information provided by you during the user registration process ("Verification Check(s)"). The results of Verification Checks may be used by AKRU, and as applicable, Issuers and their placement agents, to determine your eligibility to use our Services and participate in an Offering. AKRU may, but is under no obligation to re-confirm Verification Checks or independently review the results of any Verification Checks performed by third parties, and AKRU is not liable for any errors therein. You hereby consent and authorize AKRU to delegate the authorizations you provide to AKRU to Issuers and their placement agents, as well as AKRU Vendors, in each case, as AKRU deems necessary or desirable to provide the Services to you. You agree that the terms and conditions of the Terms, including any of the other terms, conditions, warranty disclaimers and liability disclaimers incorporated into these Terms, inure to the benefit of such AKRU Vendors and they are third party beneficiaries of these Terms
During your use of the Services, you may elect to set up a cryptocurrency wallet ("Wallet") account with a cryptocurrency wallet provider chosen by AKRU ("Wallet Provider"). You may use the Wallet only for the purpose of transacting in securities through the Service. You may not send any cryptocurrency, fiat currency, digital assets or securities to the Wallet. Your use of the Wallet will be subject to the terms of use agreement between you and such Wallet Provider.
You understand and agree that AKRU does not control and is not liable for any transactions made using the Wallet or your other accounts. All payment transmissions in connection with the Offering are handled by Issuer Vendors.
By creating an Account, you also consent to receive electronic communications from AKRU (e.g., via email or by posting notices to the AKRU Platform). These communications may include notices about your Account (e.g., password changes and other transactional information) and are part of your relationship with us. For contractual purposes, you (a) consent to receive communications from AKRU in an electronic form, and (b) agree that all terms and conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that AKRU provides to you electronically satisfy any applicable legal requirement (including but not limited to, the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act and Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act), that such communications would satisfy if it were to be in writing. AKRU reserves the right to provide to you documents in electronic format, collect signatures in electronic format and paper out all electronically signed documents and record your holdings of related securities in hard copy paper format, in the event of a system failure, hack, unrecoverable electronic damage, or other event beyond AKRU's reasonable control.
You should maintain copies of electronic communications from us by printing a paper copy or saving an electronic copy. We may also send you promotional communications via email, including, but not limited to, newsletters, special offers, surveys and other news and information we think will be of interest to you. You may opt out of receiving these promotional emails at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions provided therein.
You must provide all equipment and software necessary to access the AKRU Platform and Services. You are solely responsible for any fees, including internet connection or mobile fees, that you incur when accessing the AKRU Platform or Services.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, you acknowledge and agree that you shall have no ownership or other property interest in your Account (other than the securities associated with such Account), and you further acknowledge and agree that all rights in and to your Account are and shall forever be owned by and inure to the benefit of AKRU.
If you are given or create a password to access the Website, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and your password. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account and you agree to notify AKRU immediately of any unauthorized use of your account. AKRU is not responsible for any loss that you may incur as a result of any unauthorized person using your account or your password.
No Investment or Financial Advice. AKRU's role in the Offering is limited to providing the Services. AKRU is not a broker-dealer, national securities exchange, alternative trading system, or other regulated securities market. In the future, AKRU may operate with an affiliated broker-dealer ("Broker-Dealer Affiliate") but this Agreement solely applies to AKRU and not to any Broker-Dealer Affiliates.
AKRU is not an issuer of securities. By providing its Services to you as a Registered User or Issuer, AKRU is not endorsing or recommending the Issuer's securities, or the services of any broker or dealer. No aspect of the AKRU Platform is designed or intended to provide financial, legal, tax or investment advice or recommendations. You are solely responsible for determining whether any investment, investment strategy or related transaction is appropriate for you based on your personal investment objectives, financial circumstances and risk tolerance. You should consult your legal or tax professional about your investment goals. The availability of the AKRU Platform does not constitute an offer or an invitation to purchase securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer or invitation is not authorized or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such offer or invitation. Users must inform themselves about such restrictions and are solely responsible for complying with the same.
AKRU is not responsible for sustained casualties due to vulnerability or any kind of failure, abnormal behavior of software (e.g., Wallet, smart contract), blockchains or any other features of cryptocurrency or smart contracts. AKRU is not responsible for casualties due to late report by developers or representatives (or no report at all) of any issues with the blockchain supporting cryptocurrency including forks, technical node issues or any other issues that result in losses or damages.
Nothing in these Terms shall exclude or limit liability of either party for fraud, death or bodily injury caused by negligence, violation of laws, or any other activity that cannot be limited or excluded by legitimate means.
You agree that your Account will be self-directed and that you are solely responsible for all purchases, orders, investment decisions and instructions placed in your Account. Although the AKRU Platform may provide data, information or content provided by other parties relating to investment strategies and/or opportunities to buy and/or sell securities, you should not construe any such content as tax, legal, financial, or investment advice. You acknowledge that AKRU is not liable to and will not verify or investigate the accuracy and completeness of the offering material and other information posted on the AKRU Platform. You are strongly encouraged to contact each Issuer directly to discuss any questions regarding an offering or the business prospects of the Issuer. You represent that any decision to invest is based solely on your consideration of the risks involving a particular security or those of a third-party (i.e. your personal financial advisor) and is made at your own risk. All investments involve a degree of risk, and you acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for determining the suitability of an investment or strategy and accept the risks associated with such decisions that may include the risk of complete loss of your principal.
We do not provide any investment, tax, or legal advice, nor do we broker trades on your behalf. We are not your broker, intermediary, agent or advisor and have no special relationship with or fiduciary duty to you. You agree and acknowledge that you are solely responsible for conducting legal, accounting or due diligence review on any companies or securities listed on the Site. You are advised to consult with a licensed legal professional and investment advisor for any legal, tax, insurance, or investment advice. The AKRU Platform will merely provide you with the ability for you to make your own investment decision without any advice by the AKRU Platform. You agree that we have no liability for any of your activities or decisions made while using the AKRU Platform.

Number changes. If you change or transfer ownership of the mobile phone number you provided to AKRU, you agree to notify AKRU promptly by updating the number in your account security settings or by contacting AKRU support.

Modification of SMS Terms. AKRU may modify these SMS Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated to you via email or by notice on the AKRU platform. Your continued use of SMS messaging following such notice constitutes acceptance of the modified terms.
Information Collection. AKRU may require you to provide additional information and documents at the request of any governmental authority or for the purposes of Verification Checks, compliance with any applicable law or regulation, including laws related to laundering of funds that represent the proceeds of crime, or for counteracting financing of terrorism. AKRU may also require you to provide additional information and documents in cases where it has reasons to believe that: (a) your Account is being used for money laundering or for any other illegal or suspicious activity, (b) you have concealed or reported false identification information or other details, (c) you are located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "State Sponsor of Terrorism" or you are listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties, (d) trades effected via your Account were affected in breach of these Terms, or (e) your use of the Services violates applicable laws and regulations. In such cases, AKRU in its sole discretion, may suspend your transactions until such additional information and documents are reviewed by AKRU and accepted as satisfying the requirements of applicable law. If you do not provide complete and accurate information and documents in response to such a request, AKRU may refuse to provide its Services to you. Please be aware that providing false or inaccurate information or engaging in illegal activities may result in you being prosecuted for violation of securities laws or any other applicable laws. Different jurisdictions have different laws and regulations with respect to investing in securities. You are responsible and liable at all times for any compliance obligations that you may be subject to in accordance with applicable laws and regulations in your home country or state. All information collection is governed by AKRU's Privacy Policy, incorporated herein.
Important Notice About Consumer Information. AKRU may collect Personal Information, with your consent, to be used by AKRU's trusted third-party partners to complete background checks as ordered by AKRU customers. AKRU is not a "consumer reporting agency" or "reseller" as those terms are defined under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ("FCRA"). AKRU does not process, assemble, or merge any Personal Information to create or modify any consumer report. Furthermore, AKRU plays no role in any eligibility determination based on the Personal Information processed as part of the identity verification process. Accordingly, the FCRA does not apply to AKRU's processing of Personal Information as described in this Policy. Regardless, your Personal Information will be processed by AKRU in accordance with these Terms of Use unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Blockchain Services. You accept and acknowledge:
Should you choose to purchase securities using cryptocurrency, you are solely responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to your cryptocurrency transactions. Neither AKRU nor any affiliate, employees, officers, directors, consultants or equity holders are responsible for determining the taxes that apply to cryptocurrency transactions.
There are risks associated with using an internet based blockchain protocol (including smart contracts we may create for you implementing the R-Token standard), including but not limited to, the risk of hardware, software and internet connections, the risk of malicious software introduction, and the risk that third parties may obtain unauthorized access to information stored within your Account. You accept and acknowledge that AKRU will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, and smart contracts is changing rapidly and uncertain; new regulations or policies, including any applicable international or domestic laws may materially adversely affect the Services.
If a Registered User fails a Verification Check conducted by AKRU Vendors or is rejected by an Issuer with respect to an Offering for any or no reason, AKRU takes no responsibility for any resultant losses to Registered Users. AKRU is not liable for any act or omissions of any Issuer or any Issuer Vendors and in the event that an Issuer decides to cancel an Offering or any associated sale of securities.
In addition, please understand that AKRU reserves the right to intentionally remove from circulation ("burn") a specific number of tokens from the total available tokens in existence for the Services. AKRU will burn tokens as a means to maintain a stable value and keep incentives for our users to continue utilizing the Services. Likewise, AKRU reserves the right to reissue tokens on a case-by-case basis in order to maintain a stable value and keep incentives for utilizing the Services. It is important to remain transparent to our users about our decisions to burn or reissue tokens. Therefore, we will make every effort to communicate burning and reissuing decisions to our users as needed, and subject to supplemental terms that will be communicated to the user at the time or burning and reissuance.
