Specific Risks. Some of the key risks associated with applications to purchase, and the holding of Invox Tokens, are summarised in the following table. (a) The development and deployment of the Invox Platform may not occur as planned The development of public blockchain software is a very new field and there is a risk that the development and deployment of the Invox Platform could be delayed or not eventuate. While the Company intends to develop the Invox Platform , changes may need to be made to the plans and timeline for the development and deployment of that product. This could create a risk that the platform as envisaged and Tokens to be issued are delayed, despite the Company’s best efforts to deliver the platform. Further, while the Company also intends to adopt industry standard software development for the Invox Platform , there is a risk that the platform could suffer from malfunctions or unexpected performance issues in the future. If there are delays in the development or deployment of the Invox Platform this could impact the adoption of the Token. You should understand that while the Company will make reasonable efforts to complete the Invox Platform , there may be circumstances beyond the Company’s control which result in delays, a more limited release, or in the worst case, a functioning Invox Platform may not be created at all. These risks could directly impact the potential for adoption and use of the Token. (b) Risk of losing access to your tokens due to a loss of your private key As noted above, a key general risk is that you lose your private key(s) which control your Tokens. The Company accepts no responsibility and will be unable to assist any Token Holder to recover lost Tokens if the private key(s) for the wallet or vault holding the Tokens is lost and the Tokens are transferred to a third party. (c) Mining attacks All decentralised cryptographic tokens based on Ethereum are at risk of attacks by miners in a network. In these attacks, including a “51% attack”, a bad actor can gain control over the majority of a network and verify false transactions, or launch double-spend attacks which involve a party attempting to transfer the same Tokens to different parties. All public blockchains are presently at risk of mining attacks and as such could cause impairment to the blockchain and reduce the reliability of and adoption of the Tokens. (d) Hacking and cyber threats Hackers may attempt to steal cryptocurrencies used as part of Applications during our Tok...
