We will not be liable for any losses suffered by you resulting from any modification to any Services or from any modification, suspension, or termination, for any reason, of your access to all or any portion of the Site or the Services. The following sections of these Terms will survive any termination of your access to the Site or the Services, regardless of the reasons for its expiration or termination, in addition to any other provision which by law or by its nature should survive: Sections 7 through 15.10. Assumption of Risks
10.1 By utilizing the Services or interacting with the Site in any way, you represent and warrant that you understand the inherent risks associated with cryptographic systems and blockchain-based networks; Digital Assets, including the usage and intricacies of native Digital Assets, like Ether (ETH); Ethereum blockchain-based tokens, and systems that interact with blockchain-based networks. Ondo does not own or control any of the underlying software through which blockchain networks are formed. In general, the software underlying blockchain networks, including the Ethereum blockchain, is open source, such that anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute it. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree (a) that Ondo is not responsible for the operation of the software and networks underlying the Services, (b) that there exists no guarantee of the functionality, security, or availability of that software and networks, and (c) that the underlying networks are subject to sudden changes in operating rules, such as those commonly referred to as “forks,” which may materially affect the Services. Blockchain networks use public/private key cryptography. You alone are responsible for securing your private key(s). We do not have access to your private key(s). Losing control of your private key(s) will permanently and irreversibly deny you access to Digital Assets on the Ethereum blockchain or other blockchain-based network. Neither Ondo nor any other person or entity will be able to retrieve or protect your Digital Assets. If your private key(s) are lost, then you will not be able to transfer your Digital Assets to any other blockchain address or wallet. If this occurs, then you will not be able to realize any value or utility from the Digital Assets that you may hold.10.2 The Services and your Digital Assets could be impacted by one or more regulatory inquiries or regulatory actions, which could impede or limit the ability of Ondo to continue to make available its proprietary software and, thus, could impede or limit your ability to access or use the Services.10.3 You acknowledge and understand that cryptography is a progressing field with advances in code cracking or other technical advancements, such as the development of quantum computers, which may present risks to Digital Assets and the Services, and could result in the theft or loss of your Digital Assets. To the extent possible, we intend to update Ondo-developed or owned software related to the Services to incorporate additional security measures necessary to address risks presented from technological advancements, but that intention does not guarantee or otherwise ensure full security of the Services.10.4 You understand that the Ethereum blockchain and other blockchain-based networks remain under development, which creates technological and security risks when using the Services in addition to uncertainty relating to Digital Assets and transactions therein. You acknowledge that the cost of transacting on the Ethereum blockchain and other blockchain-based networks may be variable and may increase at any time causing impact to any activities taking place on the Ethereum blockchain or other blockchain-based network, which may result in price fluctuations or increased costs when using the Services.10.5 You acknowledge that the Services are subject to flaws and that you are solely responsible for evaluating any information or functionality provided by the Services or Site. This warning and others Ondo provides in these Terms in no way evidence or represent an on-going duty to alert you to all of the potential risks of utilizing the Services or accessing the Site.10.6 Although we intend to provide accurate and timely information on the Site and during your use of the Services, the Site and other information available when using the Services may not always be entirely accurate, complete, or current and may also include technical inaccuracies or typographical errors. Information may be changed or updated from time to time without notice, including, without limitation, information regarding our policies. Accordingly, you should verify all information before relying on it, and all decisions based on information contained on the Site or as part of the Services are your sole responsibility. No representation is made as to the accuracy, completeness, or appropriateness for any particular purpose of any pricing information distributed via the Site or otherwise when using the Services. Prices and pricing information may be higher or lower than prices available on platforms providing similar services.10.7 Any use or interaction with the Services requires a comprehensive understanding of applied cryptography and computer science to appreciate the inherent risks, including those listed above. You represent and warrant that you possess relevant knowledge and skills. Any reference to a type of Digital Asset on the Site or otherwise during the use of the Services does not indicate our approval or disapproval of the technology on which the Digital Asset relies, and should not be used as a substitute for your understanding of the risks specific to each type of Digital Asset.10.8 Use of the Services, including any interfaces hosted on behalf of Covered Entities, may provide access to functionality involving Digital Assets that carry financial risk. Digital Assets and decentralized protocols are highly experimental, risky, and volatile. Any transactions you conduct through interfaces accessible via the Services are your sole responsibility. Ondo is not a party to any such transaction. You acknowledge and agree that you will access and use the Services at your own risk. Notwithstanding anything in these Terms, Ondo accepts no responsibility whatsoever for, and will in no circumstances be liable to you in connection with, any transaction conducted through or in connection with interfaces accessible via the Services.10.9 We must comply with Applicable Law, which may require us to, upon request by government agencies, take certain actions or provide information, which may not be in your best interests and which may occur without notice to you.10.10 You understand that the Service remains under development, which creates technological and other risks when using the Services. These risks include, among others, delays resulting from the servers of Ondo being offline; an incorrect display of information on the Site in the case of server errors; or other disruptions caused by server errors. You acknowledge that these risks may have a material impact on your use of the Services.10.11 You hereby assume, and agree that Ondo will have no responsibility or liability for, the risks set forth in this Section 10. You hereby irrevocably waive, release and discharge all claims, whether known or unknown to you, against Ondo, its Affiliates, the Covered Entities and their respective shareholders, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, and representatives, suppliers, and contractors related to any of the risks set forth in this Section 10.11.

Dispute Resolution & Arbitration
14.1 PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH ONDO OR ANY COVERED ENTITY AND LIMITS HOW YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM ONDO OR ANY COVERED ENTITY. This Section 14 (this “Arbitration Provision”) applies to and governs any dispute, controversy, or claim between you and Ondo or any Covered Entity that arises out of or relates to, directly or indirectly: (a) these Terms, including the formation, existence, breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, validity, and enforceability thereof; (b) access to or use of the Site or the Services; (c) any transactions through, by, or using the Site or the Services; or (d) any other aspect of your relationship or transactions with us, directly or indirectly, as a visitor to or user of the Site or the Services (each, a “Claim,” and, collectively, “Claims”). This Arbitration Provision applies, without limitation, to all Claims that arose or were asserted before or after your consent to these Terms. You and Ondo agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms, the Site or the Services is personal to you and Ondo or any Covered Entity and that any dispute will be resolved solely through individual action, and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action, or any other type of representative proceeding. Except as otherwise set forth in these Terms, the FAA (as defined in Section 15.7) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Provision.14.2 Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out of this Arbitration Provision by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to legal@ondo.finance within 30 days after you first accept these Terms. Your notice must include your full legal name and address and an unequivocal statement of your intention to opt out of this Arbitration Provision. Opting out of this Arbitration Provision does not affect (a) the binding nature of any other part of these Terms, including the provisions regarding controlling law or the courts in which any disputes must be brought; or (b) any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.14.3 Dispute Resolution Process. For any Claim, you agree that you will first contact us at legal@ondo.finance and attempt to resolve the Claim with Ondo or any Covered Entity informally. In the unlikely event that we have not been able to resolve a Claim after sixty (60) days, we each agree to resolve such Claim exclusively through binding arbitration by JAMS before a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”), under the JAMS International Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”), except as provided herein. JAMS may be contacted at www.jamsadr.com, where the Rules are available. In the event of any conflict between the Rules and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision will control. The seat of the arbitration shall be Washington D.C., and the language of the arbitration shall be English. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Each party will bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs in any action subject to this Arbitration Provision; and the rule that the prevailing or substantially prevailing party be reimbursed attorneys’ fees and costs will not apply with respect to the arbitration or otherwise. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms in the courts referred to in this Section 14.2.14.4 Class Action / Jury Trial Waiver. WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED THE SITE FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL DISPUTES, CONTROVERSIES OR CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THE AGREEMENT, YOU AND ONDO ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.14.5 Equitable Relief. NOTHING IN THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WILL BE DEEMED AS: PREVENTING US FROM SEEKING INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF FROM THE COURTS AS NECESSARY TO PREVENT THE ACTUAL OR THREATENED INFRINGEMENT, MISAPPROPRIATION, OR VIOLATION OF OUR DATA SECURITY, CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS; OR PREVENTING YOU FROM ASSERTING CLAIMS IN A SMALL CLAIMS COURT, PROVIDED THAT YOUR CLAIMS QUALIFY AND SO LONG AS THE MATTER REMAINS IN SUCH COURT AND ADVANCES ON ONLY AN INDIVIDUAL (NON-CLASS, NON-COLLECTIVE, AND NON-REPRESENTATIVE) BASIS.14.6 Severability. If any portion of this Section 14 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Section 14 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis under this Section 14; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this Section 14 is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, then that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Section 14 will be enforceable.15.
