7. TOKEN PURCHASE PROCESS

 

The Registered Investor User will be enabled to make investments within the section called "Properties". Said investment process will include the selection by the User of the property of his choice. Then, once the User has selected the property of his/her choice, he/she must select the option "Buy token" indicating the amount of tokens he/she wishes to acquire. Once this step is completed, the User must select the "Verify Order" option, which will result in the generation of a document containing the relevant details of the User. This document will require the User's acceptance and signature, thus formalizing the agreement.

 

Price

 

The price or contribution for each Token will be indicated from time to time in the corresponding offering document (Offering Document). The reference currency for the calculation of the price or contribution will always be the Euro. In case of making the contribution payment in a cryptocurrency other than the Euro, the provisions of the Offering Document for the calculation of the price or contribution in cryptocurrencies shall apply.

 

Form of payment

 

The User agrees to the realization of the payment or contribution for each Token subscribed during the period of the Issuance. The User agrees to transfer its contribution through the payment systems of the platform to be used in its case, through a transfer to a bank account or to the Blockchain address indicated by the Issuer. The details of such transfer will be indicated by the Issuer within two business days following subscription of this Agreement.

 

The Token Price paid by the User as a contribution shall not be returned or refunded and the User has no right to withdraw from this Agreement. Refunds will only be made in the event that the offered amount is not reached, as stipulated in the Issuing Document.

​

​The payment operations are exclusively conducted through our secure server using our payment gateways. Equito app will not sell, purchase, provide, exchange, or disclose any Account or Transaction data, or personal information of Cardholders to any third parties, except the Acquirer, Card networks/associations, or in response to valid government demands.

The Issuer reserves the right to modify at any time the requirements relating to the User wallets to store the Tokens at any time and unilaterally.

 

The general rule, unless otherwise agreed by the User, is that the Tokens will be kept, at the time of purchase, by the Issuer. However, in the event that the User wishes to transfer such Tokens to a third party, he/she must previously inform the Issuer so that the latter may transfer them to his/her Wallet and provided that the third party passes a KYC process and is admitted by the Issuer. The additional costs incurred for the transaction shall be borne by the User and the User shall always be informed thereof.

 

Further token transmission

 

The User may transfer the Tokens to third parties or entities. The transmission of the Tokens will produce the effects of the assignment of credits on the rights, obligations and accessory rights associated with each Token.

 

The User, in its position as transferor, undertakes to inform the transferees that they must comply with the full content of this Agreement and the Issuing Document. In this regard, the Issuer shall not be liable for any liability of any kind arising from the failure of the transferor User to fully inform the transferees.

 

In order for such assignment of receivables to produce binding effects for the Issuer, both the assignor and the assignee must comply with the following conditions:

 

a. The User, as transferor, shall transmit the Tokens to the public key of a Wallet that is compatible with the blockchain used for the Issuance of the Tokens;

b. The transferor shall notify the Issuer that it has transferred part or all of its Tokens and, consequently, the rights associated with them.

 

If applicable, the transferee, after receiving the Tokens, shall proceed to register in the APP enabled for the transfer of the Tokens and collection of the yields, and thus be able to exercise the rights and actions that may correspond to it against the Issuer associated with the Tokens.

 

In the event that the User, in its capacity as assignor, wishes to assign the credits associated with the Issuing Document, but without proceeding to the transmission of the Tokens, it must previously request the option of de-tokenization to the Issuer.

 

8. TOKEN REPURCHASE BY EQUITO

 

EQUITO offers Users who have invested in a project the possibility to sell their tokens to EQUITO under specific conditions.

 

The User who so wishes may do so by selling the tokens to EQUITO, who shall acquire them for a commission of 3% of the initial purchase price, provided that he has not withdrawn the proceeds from his personal account. In such case, they shall be deducted from the repurchase price.

 

The repurchase procedure will be carried out through the Equito App platform itself and will be reimbursed to the internal account created for the User within the platform.

 

The final repurchase price of the token will be displayed on the platform from time to time as indicated above and constitutes an essential part of the specific conditions of the repurchase, which will be annexed to these Repurchase Conditions when the repurchase has been executed.

 

Sending tokens to EQUITO

 

In the event that the User itself was guarding its own Tokens, after acceptance of these Terms of repurchase, it shall proceed to send the corresponding Tokens to the wallet indicated by EQUITO on the platform or, where appropriate, to the wallet corresponding to the smart contract that had created the Tokens from their origins. EQUITO reserves the right to modify at any time the requirements relating to the User wallet to store the Tokens at any time and unilaterally.

 

In the event that the User does not properly transfer the Tokens to the wallet(s) indicated, he/she may lose the right to transmit them again and shall not be entitled to receive compensation for the Tokens, except for the economic rights associated with such Tokens, until the end of the duration of the offer as indicated in the Offering Document.

 

 

Assignment of the underlying rights through the transfer of the tokens

 

The transfer of the Tokens to EQUITO shall produce the effects of the assignment of credits on the rights, obligations and accessory rights associated with each Token.

 

In order for such assignment of credits to produce binding effects for the Issuer, both the assignor (the User) and the assignee (EQUITO) must comply with the following conditions:

 

  • In the event that the User has the Tokens in his own wallet, he, as transferor, shall transmit the Tokens to the public key of a Wallet that is compatible with the blockchain used for the issuance of the Tokens. In case the Tokens have not yet been delivered to him, this requirement shall not apply;

  • The minimum requirements set forth in the Second Stipulation of these Repurchase Conditions must be met.

 

9. DURATION

 

Access as a Registered User will begin once the data required for registration has been entered, after acceptance of the Privacy Policy and these Terms and Conditions.
