4. Purchaser Representations and
Warranties. In connection with Purchaser’s receipt of
the Equity Tokens, Purchaser hereby makes the investment
representations listed on Exhibit
A to Chimes as
of the date of this Agreement. In addition, Purchase acknowledges
and agrees that the Equity Tokens are not currently ERC-20
compatible and may never be developed as a distributed ledger
token.
5. Right of First Refusal. The Purchaser
hereby agrees that the Equity Tokens are subject to a right of
first refusal in favor of Chimes as set forth on Exhibit
B.
6. Risk
Factors.
(a) Ethereum Blockchain. The
Ethereum blockchain is prone to periodic congestion during which
transactions can be delayed or lost. Individuals may also
intentionally spam the Ethereum network in an attempt to gain an
advantage in purchasing cryptographic tokens. Purchaser
acknowledges and understands that Ethereum block producers may not
include Purchaser’s transaction when Purchaser wants or
Purchaser’s transaction may not be included at
all.
(b) Third Party Attacks.
Transactions within the Project may be delayed or lost due to
operational error or malicious attacks by third parties. Purchaser
acknowledges and understands that the last-closed ledger may not
include Purchaser’s transaction when Purchaser wants or
expects and that Purchaser’s transaction may be excluded or
discarded entirely.
(c) Ability to Transact or Resell.
Purchaser may be unable to sell or otherwise transact in Equity
Tokens at any time, or for the price Purchaser paid. By purchasing
Equity Tokens, Purchaser acknowledges, understands and agrees that:
(a) there is no guarantee or representation of liquidity for the
Equity Tokens; and (b) Company is not and shall not be responsible
for or liable for the market value of Equity Tokens, the
transferability and/or liquidity of Equity Tokens and/or the
availability of any market for Equity Tokens through third parties
or otherwise.
(d) Token Security. Equity Tokens
may be subject to expropriation and or/theft. Hackers or other
malicious groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with the
Equity Tokens in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to,
malware attacks, denial of service attacks, consensus-based
attacks, Xxxxx attacks, smurfing and spoofing. Furthermore, because
the Ethereum platform rests on open source software and Equity
Tokens are based on open source software, there is the risk that
Ethereum smart contracts may contain intentional or unintentional
bugs or weaknesses which may negatively affect the Equity Tokens or
result in the loss of Purchaser’s Equity Tokens, the loss of
Purchaser’s ability to access or control Purchaser’s
Equity Tokens or the loss of ETH in Purchaser’s account. In
the event of such a software bug or weakness, there may be no
remedy and holders of Equity Tokens are not guaranteed any remedy,
refund or compensation.
(e) Access to Private Keys. Equity
Tokens purchased by Purchaser may be held by Purchaser in
Purchaser’s digital wallet or vault, which requires a private
key, or a combination of private keys, for access. Accordingly,
loss of requisite private key(s) associated with Purchaser’s
digital wallet or vault storing Equity Tokens will result in loss
of such Equity Tokens, access to Purchaser’s Equity Token
balance and/or any initial balances in blockchains created by third
parties. Moreover, any third party that gains access to such
private key(s), including by gaining access to login credentials of
a hosted wallet or vault service Purchaser uses, may be able to
misappropriate Purchaser’s Equity Tokens. Company is not
responsible for any such losses.
(f) New Technology. The Project and
all of the matters set forth in the White Paper are new and
untested. The Project might not be capable of completion,
implementation or adoption. It is possible that no blockchain
utilizing the Project will ever be launched and there may never be
an operational
2
platform. Even if
the Project is completed, implemented and adopted, it might not
function as intended, and any tokens associated with a blockchain
adopting the Project may not have functionality that is desirable
or valuable. Also, technology is changing rapidly, so the Equity
Tokens and the Project may become outdated.
(g) Tax Consequences. The purchase
and receipt of Equity Tokens may have tax consequences for
Purchaser. Purchaser is solely responsible for Purchaser’s
compliance with Purchaser’s tax obligations. Purchaser
explicitly bears the sole responsibility to determine whether the
purchase and/or the ownership and/or use of the Token, the
potential appreciation or depreciation in the value of the Token
over time, the sale and purchase of the Token and/or any other
action or transaction related to the Project have tax implications
for Purchaser.
(h) Reliance on Third-Parties. Even
if completed, the Project will rely, in whole or partly, on third
parties to adopt and implement it and to continue to develop,
supply, and otherwise support it.
There
is no assurance or guarantee that those third parties will complete
their work, properly carry out their obligations, or otherwise meet
anyone’s needs, all of might have a material adverse effect
on the Project.
(i) Failure to Map a Public Key to
Purchaser’s Account. Failure of Purchaser to map a
public key to Purchaser’s account may result in third parties
being unable to recognize Purchaser’s Equity Token balance on
the Ethereum blockchain.
(j) Exchange & Counterparty
Risks. If Purchaser sends ETH from an exchange or an account
that Purchaser does not control, Equity Tokens will be allocated to
the account that has sent ETH; therefore, Purchaser may never
receive or be able to recover Purchaser’s Equity Tokens.
Furthermore, if Purchaser chooses to maintain or hold Equity Tokens
through a cryptocurrency exchange or other third party,
Purchaser’s Equity Tokens may be stolen or lost. In addition,
third parties may not recognize Purchaser’s claim to any
derivative tokens if and when launched by third parties according
to the distribution rules set in the Project. By purchasing Equity
Tokens, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser sends ETH
through an exchange account and/or holds Equity Tokens on a
cryptocurrency exchange or with another third party at
Purchaser’s own and sole risk.
(k) Changes to the Project. The
Project is still under development as the Company is seeking to
move the Project to the block chain and Smart Contract System. The
Project may undergo significant changes over time. Although Company
intends for the Project to have the features and specifications set
forth in the White Paper, Company may make changes to such features
and specifications for any number of reasons, any of which may mean
that the Chimes Network does not meet Purchaser’s
expectations.
(l) Project Completion. The
development of the Project may be abandoned for a number of
reasons, including, but not limited to, lack of interest from the
public, lack of funding, lack of commercial success or prospects,
or departure of key personnel.
(m) Lack of Interest. Even if the
Project is finished, launched and adopted, the ongoing success of
the Project relies on the interest and participation of third
parties. There can be no assurance or guarantee that there will be
sufficient interest or participation in the Project.
(n) Uncertain Regulatory Framework.
The regulatory status of cryptographic tokens, digital assets and
blockchain technology is unclear or unsettled in many
jurisdictions. It is difficult to predict how or whether
governmental authorities will regulate such technologies. It is
likewise difficult to predict how or whether any governmental
authority may make changes to existing laws, regulations and/or
rules that will affect cryptographic tokens, digital assets,
blockchain technology and its applications.

7. General
Provisions.
(a) Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be
governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the conflict of
law rules, of Delaware.
(b) Integration. This Agreement, including
all exhibits hereto, represents the entire agreement between the
parties with respect to the receipt of the Equity Tokens by
Purchaser and supersedes and replaces any and all prior written or
oral agreements regarding the subject matter of this Agreement
including, but not limited to, any representations made during any
interviews, relocation discussions or negotiations whether written
or oral.

or number as the party receiving such communication shall give the
other party in writing.
(d) Successors. Any successor to Chimes
(whether direct or indirect and whether by purchase, merger,
consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) to all or substantially
all of Chimes’s business or assets shall assume the rights
and obligations under this Agreement and agree expressly to perform
the obligations under this Agreement in the same manner and to the
same extent as Chimes would be required to perform such obligations
in the absence of a succession. For all purposes under this
Agreement, the term “Company” shall include any
successor to Chimes’s business or assets which executes and
delivers the assumption agreement described in this section or
which becomes bound by the terms of this Agreement by operation of
law. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this
Agreement, this Agreement shall be binding upon Purchaser and his
or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors and
assigns.
(e) Assignment; Transfers. Except as set
forth in this Agreement, this Agreement, and any and all rights,
duties and obligations hereunder, shall not be assigned,
transferred, delegated or sublicensed by Purchaser without the
prior written consent of Chimes. Any attempt by Purchaser without
such consent to assign, transfer, delegate or sublicense any
rights, duties or obligations that arise under this Agreement shall
be void. Except as set forth in this Agreement, any transfers in
violation of any restriction upon transfer contained in any section
of this Agreement shall be void, unless such restriction is waived
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(f) Waiver. Either party’s failure to
enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not in any way be
construed as a waiver of any such provision, nor prevent that party
from thereafter enforcing any other provision of this Agreement.
The rights granted both parties hereunder are cumulative and shall
not constitute a waiver of either party’s right to assert any
other legal remedy available to it. No waiver of any provision
hereof shall be effective except in writing and signed by the party
against which such waiver is to be enforced, and no waiver shall
constitute a future waiver except as expressly provided in such
waiver.
(g) Further Assurances. Purchaser shall
execute any documents or instruments necessary or reasonably
desirable in the view of Chimes to carry out the purposes or intent
of this Agreement.
(h) Survival. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, Sections 2 through 5 of this Agreement shall
survive consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby.
4
(i) Severability. Should any provision of
this Agreement be found to be illegal or unenforceable, the other
provisions shall nevertheless remain effective and shall remain
enforceable to the greatest extent permitted by law.
(j) Rights as Holder of Equity Tokens.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser
shall be subject to the provisions of the Certificate of
Incorporation of Chimes (as amended, the “Certificate”)
as they apply to holders of Equity Tokens thereunder, at such time
as Purchaser delivers to Chimes a fully executed copy of this
Agreement and full payment for the Equity Tokens.
(k) Splits, Dividends and
Recapitalizations. All references to the number and Purchase

split or other change in the Equity Tokens, (ii) any dividend of
cash or other property on the Equity Tokens, (iii) any merger or

additional securities or cash or other consideration to which
Purchaser is entitled by reason of Purchaser’s ownership of
the Equity Tokens shall immediately be included thereafter as
“Equity Tokens” for purposes of this
Agreement.
(l) Arbitration. Any and all controversies,
claims or disputes with anyone (including Chimes and any employee,
officer, director, stockholder or benefit plan of Chimes, in its
capacity as such or otherwise) arising out of, relating to or
resulting from this Agreement, including any breach of this
Agreement, shall be subject to binding arbitration to be held in
the State of Utah and administered by the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the
AAA’s rules then in effect for the resolution of commercial
disputes (the “Rules”) and California law.
Disputes which Purchaser agrees to arbitrate, and thereby AGREE TO

Exhibit A
INVESTMENT
REPRESENTATION STATEMENT
1. Purchasing for Own Investment.
Purchaser is purchasing the Equity Tokens solely for investment
purposes, and not for further distribution. Purchaser’s
entire legal and beneficial ownership interest in the Equity Tokens
is being purchased and shall be held solely for Purchaser’s
account, except to the extent Purchaser intends to hold the Equity
Tokens jointly with Purchaser’s spouse. Purchaser is not a
party to, and does not presently intend to enter into, any contract
or other arrangement with any other person or entity involving the
resale, transfer, grant of participation with respect to or other
distribution of any of the Equity Tokens. Purchaser’s
investment intent is not limited to its present intention to hold
the Equity Tokens for the minimum capital gains period specified
under any applicable tax law, for a deferred sale, for a specified
increase or decrease in the market price of the Equity Tokens, or
for any other fixed period in the future.
2. Qualified Purchaser. The
Purchaser represents that it is a “Qualified
Purchaser”, meaning Purchaser is either (i) an
“Accredited
Investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the
Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities
Act”) in accordance with Exhibit C, (ii) a Non-US Person
within the meaning of Regulation S, or (iii) a non-accredited
investor and the Purchaser’s investment in the Equity Tokens
is within the limitations set forth in Section 4(a)(6) of
Regulation CF.
3. Ability to Protect Own
Interests. Purchaser can properly evaluate the merits and
risks of an investment in the Equity Tokens and can protect its own
interests in this regard, whether by reason of Purchaser’s
own business and financial expertise, the business and financial
expertise of certain professional advisors unaffiliated with Chimes
with whom Purchaser has consulted, or Purchaser’s preexisting
business or personal relationship with Chimes or any of its
officers, directors or controlling persons.
4. Informed About Chimes.
Purchaser is sufficiently aware of Chimes’ business affairs
and financial condition to reach an informed and knowledgeable
decision to acquire the Equity Tokens. Purchaser has had
opportunity to discuss the plans, operations and financial
condition of Chimes with its officers, directors or controlling
persons, and have received all information it deems appropriate for
assessing the risk of an investment in the Equity
Tokens.
5. Economic Risk. Purchaser
realizes that the receipt of the Equity Tokens involves a high
degree of risk, and that Chimes’s future prospects are
uncertain. Purchaser is able to hold the Equity Tokens indefinitely
if required, and is able to bear the loss of its entire investment
in the Equity Tokens.
6. Restricted Securities.
Purchaser understands that the Equity Tokens are “restricted
securities” in that the sale of the Equity Tokens has not
been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon an
exemption for non-public offerings. In this regard, Purchaser also
understands and agrees that: (a) Purchaser must hold the Equity
Tokens for a period of not less than twelve (12) months, unless any
subsequent proposed resale is registered under the under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or unless an
exemption from registration is otherwise available (such as Rule
4(a)(6) or 144) and Chimes permits such resale and (b) Chimes is
under no obligation to register any subsequent proposed resale of
the Equity Tokens.

Exhibit B
RIGHT
OF FIRST REFUSAL
Before
any Equity Tokens acquired by the Purchaser pursuant to this
Agreement (or any beneficial interest in such Equity Tokens) may be
sold, transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in any way
(whether by operation of law or otherwise) by the Purchaser or any
subsequent transferee (each a “Holder”), such Holder must first
offer such Equity Tokens or beneficial interest to Chimes or its
assignee as follows:
1. Notice of Proposed Transfer.
The Holder shall deliver to Chimes a written notice stating: (i)
the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise
transfer the Equity Tokens; (ii) the name of each proposed
transferee; (iii) the number of Equity Tokens to be transferred to
each proposed transferee; (iv) the bona fide cash price or other
consideration for which the Holder proposes to transfer the Equity
Tokens; and (v) that by delivering the notice, the Holder offers
all such Equity Tokens to Chimes or its assignee pursuant to this
Section and on the same terms described in the notice.
2. Exercise of Right of First
Refusal. At any time within 30 days after receipt of the
Holder’s notice, Chimes or its assignee may, by giving
written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less
than all, of the Equity Tokens proposed to be transferred to any
one or more of the proposed transferees.
3. Purchase Price. The purchase
price for the Equity Tokens purchased by Chimes or its assignee
under this Section shall be the price listed in the Holder’s
notice. If the price listed in the Holder’s notice includes
consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the
noncash consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors
of Chimes in its sole discretion.
4. Payment. Payment of the
purchase price shall be made, at the option of Chimes or its
assignee, in cash (by check), by cancellation of all or a portion
of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder to Chimes or its
assignee, or by any combination thereof within 30 days after
receipt by Chimes of the Holder’s notice (or at such later
date as is called for by such notice).
5. Holder’s Right to
Transfer. If all of the Equity Tokens proposed in the notice
to be transferred to a given proposed transferee are not purchased
by Chimes or its assignee as provided in this Section, then the
Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Equity Tokens to that
proposed transferee, provided that: (i) the transfer
is made only on the terms provided for in the notice, with the
exception of the purchase price, which may be either the price
listed in the notice or any higher price; (ii) such transfer is
consummated within 60 days after the date the notice is delivered
to Chimes; (iii) the transfer is effected in accordance with any
applicable securities laws, and if requested by Chimes, the Holder
shall have delivered an opinion of counsel acceptable to Chimes to
that effect; and (iv) the proposed transferee agrees in writing
that the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to the
transferred Equity Tokens in the hands of such proposed transferee.
If any Equity Tokens described in a notice are not transferred to
the proposed transferee within the period provided above, then
before any such Equity Tokens may be transferred, a new notice
shall be given to Chimes, and Chimes or its assignees shall again
be offered the right of first refusal described in this
Section.
6. Exception for Certain Family
Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained elsewhere in this Section, the transfer of any or all of
the Equity Tokens during the Holder’s lifetime or on the
Holder’s death by will or intestacy to the Holder’s
spouse, child, father, mother, brother, sister, father- in-law,
mother-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, grandfather,
grandmother, grandchild, cousin, aunt, uncle, niece, nephew,
stepchild, or to a trust or other similar estate planning vehicle
for the benefit of the Holder or any such person, shall be exempt
from the provisions of this Section; provided that, in each such
case, the transferee shall agree in writing to receive and hold the
Equity Tokens so transferred subject to all
8
of the
provisions of this Agreement, including but not limited to this
Section, and there shall be no further transfer of such Equity
Tokens except in accordance with the terms of this
Section.
7. Change of Control. For purposes
of this Exhibit B, a
“Change of
Control” means either: (i) the acquisition of Chimes
by another person or entity by means of any transaction or series
of related transactions (including without limitation, any
reorganization, merger or consolidation or stock transfer, but
excluding any such transaction effected primarily for the purpose
of changing the domicile of Chimes or issuance by Chimes of its
securities primarily for capital raising purposes), unless
Chimes’s stockholders of record immediately prior to such
transaction or series of related transactions hold, immediately
after such transaction or series of related transactions, at least
50% of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity; or
(ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
Chimes.
