PhunCoin, Inc.
THIS CERTIFIES THAT in exchange for the payment by the undersigned purchaser (the “Purchaser”) of the amount reflected on page 10 (as it may be discounted pursuant to this Agreement, the “Purchase Amount”), PhunCoin, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (the “Company”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Phunware, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent Company”), hereby issues to the Purchaser the rights (the “Rights”) to a certain amount of PhunCoin (the “Token” or “PhunCoin”), subject to the terms set forth below.
This Token Rights Agreement (the “Agreement” or “instrument”) is issued as part of a series of similar Agreements issued in multiple closings to certain persons and entities.
1. Events
(a) Token Distribution. Upon the expiration of the Lock-Up Period (provided such expiration is before the expiration or termination of this instrument), this instrument shall automatically convert into, and the Company shall automatically issue, a number of Tokens to the Purchaser equal to the Purchase Amount divided by the Token Price (rounded up to the next whole number if such number is a fraction). “Lock-Up Period” means the period beginning on the date of this instrument and ending on the earliest of (i) a System Launch, (ii) one (1) year after the issuance date of this instrument to the Purchaser or (iii) the date the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that Resale Restrictions are available with respect to the Tokens. “Resale Restrictions” means an alternative trading system and/or technology that allows resale restrictions with respect to the Tokens that are required by applicable securities laws to be embedded in the blockchain, the Tokens or any smart contract related to the foregoing.
In connection with and prior to the issuance of Tokens by the Company to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 1(a) (the “Token Distribution”):
(i) The Purchaser will execute and deliver to the Company any and all other transaction documents related to this Agreement as are reasonably requested by the Company, including verification of accredited investor status or non-United States person status under applicable securities laws, and provide any identification documents as required pursuant to the Company’s anti-money laundering policy; and
(ii) The Purchaser will be required to create an account with a supported wallet, subject to approval of the Company, to which Purchaser's Tokens will be sent in connection with the Token Distribution. For avoidance of doubt, the account address must be under the direct or indirect control of the Purchaser and shall not be under the direct or indirect control of a third party.
Purchasers who subscribe for the first $15M of Rights sold pursuant to the Agreement will be issued Tokens qualified pursuant to the expected Reg A+ offering in connection with the Token Distribution.
Upon the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Tokens shall be placed in a smart contract created by the Company that will automatically release the Tokens to the wallet address designated by the Purchaser.
1 |
(b) Dissolution Event. If there is a Dissolution Event before this instrument expires or terminates, the Company will pay an amount equal to the Purchase Amount due and payable to the Purchaser immediately prior to, or concurrent with, the consummation of the Dissolution Event, subject to the rights and preferences of the holders of the Company’s capital stock and/or debt, as set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as it may be amended from time to time. If immediately prior to the consummation of the Dissolution Event, the assets of the Company that remain legally available for distribution to the Purchaser and all holders of Agreements (the “Dissolving Purchasers”), as determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors, are insufficient to permit the payment to the Dissolving Purchasers of their respective Purchase Amounts, then the remaining assets of the Company legally available for distribution, following all distributions to the holders of the Company’s capital stock and/or debt, will be distributed with equal priority and pro rata among the Dissolving Purchasers in proportion to the Purchase Amounts they would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 1(b). For the avoidance of doubt, funds from the Parent Company or the business operations of the Company (other than the offer and sale of the Rights pursuant to this Agreement and any other Rights pursuant to the Agreements sold to Dissolving Purchasers) shall not be available for the Dissolving Purchasers. Any distributed amounts shall be in United States dollars.
(c) Termination. This instrument will expire and terminate upon the earlier of (i) the issuance of Tokens to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 1(a); (ii) the payment, or setting aside for payment, of amounts due the Purchaser pursuant to Section 1(b); and (iii) twelve months from the date hereof (as it may be extended, the “Deadline Date”), should the System Launch not have occurred as of such date; provided that, the Company shall have the right to extend the Deadline Date by six (6) months, in its sole discretion. Upon such termination, any right to receive the Tokens shall also be terminated and have no force or effect.
2. Definitions
In addition to the capitalized terms defined elsewhere in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth in this Section 2.

“Discount Rate” means a sliding scale based on the timing and purchase size associated with the amount of Tokens purchased during each period based on the “retail” price of $0.008/Token:

The Purchaser is responsible for implementing reasonable measures for securing the wallet, vault or other storage mechanism the Purchaser uses to receive and hold Tokens it receives from the Company, including any requisite private key(s) or other credentials necessary to access such storage mechanism(s). If the Purchaser’s private key(s) or other access credentials are lost, the Purchaser acknowledges that it may lose access to its Tokens. The Company is not responsible for any such losses.

The Purchaser agrees that when it clicks on an “I Agree,” “I Consent,” or other similarly worded button or entry field with its mouse, keystroke or other device, the Purchaser’s agreement or consent will be legally binding and enforceable against it and will be the legal equivalent of its handwritten signature on an agreement that is printed on paper. The Purchaser agrees that the Company and any of the Company’s affiliates may send the Purchaser electronic copies of any and all communications associated with its purchase of Tokens.
5. Know Your Customer Acknowledgement.
The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it is required to provide user information and must pass a Know Your Customer (“KYC”) test, whereby the Purchaser will be screened against Office of Foreign Assets Control lists and other watch lists. The benefits provided by the Tokens shall be denied to the Purchaser if it fails to meet the KYC suitability screening requirements, in which event the Company shall not accept the Purchase Amount from the Purchaser. Prior to accepting the Purchase Amount, the Company, or its nominee, shall perform the relevant KYC checks from a suitable independent KYC provider and keep a copy of same for its records, and the Purchaser agrees to provide the relevant information and assistance in this process in a timely manner. The Company may be required to obtain certain information about Purchaser in order to complete the sale of the Tokens to the Purchaser.

(i) The Company shall not be liable or responsible to the Purchaser, nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this instrument, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this instrument, including without limitation, launching the System, consummating the System Launch or distributing Tokens, when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts beyond the affected party's reasonable control, including, without limitation: (a) acts of God; (b) flood, fire, hurricane, earthquake or explosion; (c) war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, or other civil unrest; (d) Law; or (e) action by any Governmental Authority. There is no guarantee that the Company will be successful at developing the Tokens or the System. A state or country could prohibit the commercial or non-commercial use of the cryptographic methods necessary to the release of the Tokens and operation of the System. Any of these negative outcomes may lead the Company to forgo its plan to conduct the System Launch and/or otherwise release the Tokens. As a result, the Company may be unable to deliver Tokens pursuant to this Agreement or reimburse the Purchase Price received under this Agreement.

5. | The Company will countersign the Token Rights Agreement and record the BTC Transaction ID, ETH Transaction ID or Wire Ref Number (the “Transaction ID”), PhunCoin Tokens purchased and Effective Date. The exchange rate for BTC and ETH will be determined based on the time and date reflected by the Transaction ID as displayed by xxxxx://xxxxxxxxxx.xxxx/, xxxxx://xxxxxxxxx.xx/ or bank records. |
