    Article 3 – Information and Knowledge of Connecty Project and the ICO by the Purchaser

    The Company intends to create a platform to connect the research and innovation stakeholders, wherever they are in the world, to exchange knowledge, request information or expert advice and/or build relationships in numerous fields (biology, chemistry, society, engineering and systems, ecology and environment, mathematics, particles and nuclear physics, physics, information sciences, earth and universe, etc (hereinafter the "Platform" or "Connecty Platform").

    More details on the Project are available on the following website:https://www.connecty.io

    The Platform will likely be developed and run on Ethereum network and other underlying technologies.
    This Project does not encompass and the Company is not provider of:
    (i) Any investment security or product whatsoever;
    (ii) Any exchange between virtual currencies and fiat currencies;
    (iii) Any wallet of custodial services of credentials necessary to access virtual currencies.

    The Purchaser understands and accepts that the Project is currently in alpha development phase and that still requires substantial development work and risk of execution. Due to unforeseeable material, conceptual, technical and commercial changes before the final release, or any time after the release of the Platform, the Purchaser understands and accepts that an upgrade of the Platform and/or CTY Tokens may be required and that, if the Purchaser decide not to participate in such upgrade, he may no longer use his CTY Tokens and that non- upgraded CTY Tokens may lose their functionality in full.

    The Purchaser is deemed to be fully aware of all the legal norms and technical constraints relating to the purchase, possession, functionality, use, storage, transmission mechanisms and intricacies associated with tokens and cryptocurrencies (like Bitcoin and Ether) based on blockchain technologies, blockchain-based software systems, and to the services offered by Connecty Platform.

    The Purchaser expressly acknowledges the random nature of this ICO and Project as presented on the website and any other information document (white paper, short paper, etc.) and that this Project may not come to fruition due to unforeseeable circumstances or may have to be abandoned due to technical, legal or regulatory constraints, without the CTY Tokens being issued or used. Besides, the technologies, being used for the development of the Project, are developing at a fast pace and there are novelties being introduced constantly. Consequently, the Platform and CTY Tokens might be different in functionality, nature and structure, which the Purchaser explicitly agrees to and he confirms that he understands that the features described herein are only for the purpose of exemplifying.

    Article 4 – Anti-money laundering and KYC Procedure

    4.1 The “Know Your Customer” (KYC) procedure is instrumental in the prevention against money laundering and terrorist financing. By obtaining and verifying the identification of the Purchasers and by monitoring the source of the funds of the Purchasers, the Company would like to protect itself and protect the Platform from being used to conceal illegally‐obtained funds.

    This is the reason why the Purchaser and its Ethereum address (“Contribution address”) will be white-listed through a KYC procedure.

    If the Purchaser does not provide the information requested, then the Company may in its sole discretion decide to refuse the Purchaser’s contribution and distribute CTY Tokens to the Purchaser. The Purchaser understands and accepts that he may be refused to receive CTY Tokens without completing the KYC Procedure.

    Any participation in this ICO will be accepted by the Company only after the Purchaser has passed the KYC procedure.

    4.2 For contributions strictly greater than 10 ETH, as part of the KYC procedure (hereinafter “KYC 1”), the following information and documents shall be provided by any Purchaser willing to access to the ITS:

    (i) Where the Purchaser is a natural person (acting within the scope of his professional activities): Family name, first name, country and residential address, email address, nationality, ID card/Passport scan, date and place of birth, address from which the funds will be disbursed;

    (i) Where the Purchaser is a legal person: Organization/Company name, headquarters registered address, scan of business licence, court registry excerpt and information on ultimate beneficial owner, where relevant, tax identification number, address from which the funds will be disbursed and for its legal representative: Family name, first name, ID card/Passport scan, nationality, date and place of birth.

    Purchaser shall then:

    - Declare that he is not a Canadian, Singapore or Chinese citizen, nor a "U.S. person";
    - Tick the box “I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT I HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD AND EXPRESSLY ACCEPT BLUE HORIZON ICO TERMS AND CONDITIONS”;
    - Provide his Contribution address.
    - Provide the indicative amount of his contribution in ETH.

    The Company will then proceed with the KYC verification. Once the Purchaser’s identification has been verified, his Contribution address will be added to the ICO White-List and the Platform will send the Purchaser a message for him to make his contribution in the ICO.

    Each step needs to be followed and complied with by the Purchaser. BLUE HORIZON will then proceed with the KYC 1 verification. Once the Purchaser’s identity has been verified, his Contribution address will be added to the ITS White List 1 and BLUE HORIZON will send him a message for the Purchaser to confirm and finalize his contribution in the ICO.

    4.3 For contributions lower than or equal to 10 ETH, as part of the KYC procedure (hereinafter “KYC 2”), the following information shall be provided by any Purchaser willing to access to the ICO: Family name, first name, email address, address from which the funds will be disbursed.

    Purchaser shall then:

    - Declare that he is not a Canadian, Singapore or Chinese citizen, nor a "U.S. person";
    - Tick the box “I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT I HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD AND EXPRESSLY ACCEPT BLUE HORIZON ICO TERMS AND CONDITIONS”;
    - Provide his Contribution address.
    - Provide the indicative amount of his contribution in ETH.

    Each step needs to be followed and complied with by the Purchaser. BLUE HORIZON will then proceed with the KYC 2 verification. Once the Purchaser’s identity has been verified, his Contribution address will be added to the ICO White List 2 and BLUE HORIZON will send him a message for the Purchaser to confirm and finalize his contribution to the ICO.

    4.4 As from this date, a contribution may no longer be reimbursed (unless the Soft Cap has not been reached), canceled or amended. CTY tokens will then be delivered to Purchasers according to the provisions of Section “CTY Tokens Distribution”.

    CTY Tokens period of validity, during which they can be used, is not time-dependent. Tokens cannot be deleted due both to their strictly decentralized nature and to the fact that, once issued, they are no longer under BLUE HORIZON’s control. They would, in any case, remain the property of their owner.

    4.5 In any case, the Company will NOT accept “anonymous purchasers” or those using aliases, fictitious names or false identity in general.

    The Company may request from the Purchaser additional information and/or documents to evidence his identity and/or source of funds or to ensure the accuracy of the details he has supplied. If the Purchaser refuses to provide such additional information or documents, the Company may, at its sole discretion, refuse the purchaser’s contribution and may not be held liable for such refusal.

    The Company will also refuse purchasers who are (or may be) suspects of being involved in money laundering, or any sort of criminal activities, related to drug trafficking, terrorism and organized crime. The same applies to potential purchasers holding businesses that due to the nature of the business make it impossible to verify its legitimacy or that of the funds being inconsistent with their financial status.

    In any event during the KYC procedure and contribution process, the Purchaser shall notify in writing the Company about any information likely to impact on its contribution directly or indirectly ([email protected]).

    4.6 Once the Purchaser’s Contribution address has been white-listed, the Purchaser shall then provide the final amount of his contribution in ETH according to the threshold indicated during the KYC procedure (i.e lower than or equal to 10 ETH or strictly greater than 10 ETH).

  • If the Purchaser is part of the White List 1, he may make as many contributions as he wants.
  • If the Purchaser is part of the White List 2, he may make several contributions but in any case, the cumulated amount of his contributions will be capped at 10 ETH.
  • 4.7 Failure for the Purchaser to provide the final amount of his contribution in ETH at the address specified on https://www.connecty.io the Purchaser will not be able to receive CTY tokens.

    4.8 Purchaser’s contribution in ETH is deemed to be irrevocably binding upon validation of the final contribution by the Smart Contract. As from this date, a contribution may no longer be canceled or amended. Purchasers will then receive CTY tokens.

    4.9 CTY tokens will be made available in the Purchaser’s wallet immediately after the contribution and will be transferable twelve (12) days after the end of the ICO.

    4.10 CTY period of validity, during which they can be used, is not time-dependent. Tokens cannot be deleted due both to their strictly decentralized nature and to the fact that, once issued, they are no longer under BLUE HORIZON’s control. They would, in any case, remain the property of their owner.

    4.11 In any event during the KYC procedure and contribution process, the Purchaser shall notify in writing BLUE HORIZON concerning any information likely to impact on its contribution directly or indirectly ([email protected]). Failure to do this, BLUE HORIZON may not be held liable in any way in this regard.

    Article 5 - CTY Tokens

    5.1 Tokens Role and Attributes

    CTY Tokens are utility tokens. CTY Tokens will provide their holders with access rights to use the Connecty Platform (and its services of connecting people), once it has been designed, developed and deployed and provided that the Connecty Platform operates on a permanent basis.

    The Purchasers’ attention is therefore drawn to the fact that purchasing tokens during the ICO does not confer automatic rights to access to the Platform and services in the future. CTY tokens may not be used before the effective implementation of CTY Platform.

    UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED HEREIN, CTY TOKENS will not be reimbursed in the event that the CONNECTY PLATFORM is not ultimately DEVELOPED OR does not operate on a permanent basis. THE PURCHASER acknowledgeS that this is a significant risk that HE acceptS.

    Furthermore, CTY Token carries no rights, express or implied, other than those, set out in its Ethereum token code and as provided herein.

    In particular, the Purchaser acknowledges that he is fully aware that:

    - a CTY Token does not represent an investment or a financial instrument within the meaning of EU Directive 2014/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 relating to markets in financial instruments: a CTY Token confers no direct or indirect right to the Company’s capital or income, nor does it confer any governance right within the Company;

    - a CTY Token is not proof of ownership or a right of control: Control over a CTYT Token does not grant the individuals any asset or share in the Company, or in the Connecty Platform. A CTY Token does not grant any right to participate in control over the Company’s management or decision-making set-up, or over the Platform.

    - a CTY Token is not an electronic currency within the meaning of EU Directive 2009/110/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 September 2009 on the taking up, pursuit and prudential supervision of the business of electronic money institutions: CTY Tokens are not accepted (and have no use) outside the Platform and a CTY Token does not have a fixed exchange value equal to the amount delivered at the time of its issue.

    - a CTY Token is not a payment service within the meaning of the (EU) Directive relating to payment services 2 (DSP 2) n° 2015/2366 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015: the ICO does not involve the purchase/sale of cryptocurrencies and the Company’s business does not consist in receiving currencies against the delivery of cryptocurrencies.

    - A CTY Token is not a consumer product and its Purchaser accepts and agrees that it is not covered by the consumer protection regulation of any jurisdiction.

    - a CTY Token is a cryptographic token only used by the Platform to connect research and innovation stakeholders to exchange knowledge. A CTY Token does not entail any licence or assignment of intellectual property rights on this knowledge.

    5.2 CTY Token Distribution

    ICO timeline and instructions are posted on the Commercial Operation website at https://www.connecty.io

    CTY tokens will be issued by a technical process referred to as «blockchain». This is an open source IT protocol over which the Company has no proprietary rights or liability in terms of development and operation.

    The token distribution mechanism will be controlled by a Smart Contract. This involves a computer program that can be executed on the Ethereum network or on a blockchain network that is compatible with Smart Contract programming language. The tokens will meet the ERC20 standard and will be subject, inter alia, to the operating conditions of the Internet computer network and the Ethereum blockchain protocol.

    The Company has no control, right or liability over the operation of the Internet computer network and the Ethereum network and protocol.

    The Purchaser understands and accepts that he is only making a contribution to the Connecty Platform through a smart contract system on Ethereum and will receive CTY Tokens in exchange.

    The Company reserves the right at any time to effect to an emergency stop functionality to stop the distribution process of CTY Tokens. Use of this functionality shall remain in discretion of the Company and shall only be used in limited situations, such as, but not limited to: i) serious security issue detected, ii) serious network performance issue, depriving all Purchasers of equal treatment, iii) any type of material attack on the CTY Tokens, contribution and token issuance functionality, the Platform or Ethereum network or other unforeseen circumstances.

    Contribution Stages: the ICO consists of several stages of contribution available for Purchasers divided into two different sales who will contribute for a different minimum level of contribution:
    - Private Sale and;
    - Public Sale.

    The Private Sale is divided into two sales:
    - Private Sale by invitation only dedicated to private investors (contributions in euros only);
    - Private Sale: contributions in BTC, ETH, ITC, DASH, Litecoin and euros;

    The Public Sale is also divided into two sales:
    - Pre ICO: begin at the end of the Private Sale and last 30 days
    - ICO: begin immediately after the ICO and last 30 days.

    During the Contribution the Pre ICO and the ICO, the price of CTY Token will increase each day:
    - Pre ICO: Starting price is 78 125 CTY for 1 ETH and each day you will get 668 CTY in less
    - ICO: Starting price is 62 500 CTY for 1 ETH and each day you will get 534 CTY in less
    The last day of the ICO, 1 ETH will worth 50 000 CTY

    Token allocation: the Company will issue 10 000 000 000 (ten billion) of CTY Tokens (“Total CTY Number”). A maximum of 5 500 000 000 (five billion and five hundred million) of CTY Tokens will be sold during the ICO. The unsold token will be burnt according to the mechanism described on the Commercial Operation website at www.connecty.io

    The minimum threshold for the ICO is 2 000 (two thousand) of ETH raised constituting the soft cap (the “Soft Cap”). If the Soft Cap is not reached, there will be a redemption of CTY Tokens to the Purchaser depending on the number of CTY Tokens purchased by the Purchaser and the exact value of the CTY Tokens at the date of their purchase.

    The Hard Cap (the “Hard Cap”) will be reached if all 5 500 000 000 (five billion and five hundred million) CTY Tokens are sold.

    Token price: the CTY Token will be sold for a token of 50 000 CTY for 1 ETH (all taxes included).

    Delivery of CTY Token

    Purchaser’s contribution is deemed to be irrevocably binding after completion of the KYC procedure and payment of the CTY Token price.

    CTY Tokens will be made available in the Purchaser’s wallet after the purchase delivered automatically by the means of the ERC20 Smart Contract.

    CTY Tokens period of validity, during which they can be used, is not time-dependent. Tokens cannot be deleted due both to their strictly decentralized nature and to the fact that, once issued, they are no longer under the Company’s control. They would, in any case, remain the property of their holders.

    CTY Token distribution will be offered only through the Website(s). No third-party website or a different provider is allowed and has not been supported, engaged or authorized by the Company and must not be relied upon in any way. The only official and authorized website is https://www.connecty.io. The Purchaser must ensure that the URL of its web browser indicates that it is using a hypertext transport protocol secure connection (https) and that the domain name is correct.

    All contributions in exchange for CTY Token are final and non-refundable. The Company will not reimburse the Purchaser in the event the Platform is not deployed or does not operate on a permanent basis or does not offer the exactly equivalent services and features described in the White Paper. BY PURCHASING CTY TOKEN, THE PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR ANY OF THE MEMBERS OF THE TEAM ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON, AND THAT THE PURCHASER WILL NOT RECEIVE MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR ANY CTY TOKEN THAT IS NOT USED OR REMAINS UNUSED.

    The Company shall not be held liable in any way for any feature that might affect the token distribution or ownership of the tokens sold, or that might hamper the Purchaser’s ability to use the tokens, including display of the tokens in an electronic wallet compatible with the ERC 20 token standard, or the assignment of these tokens to a third party.

    The acquisition of tokens comes under the Purchaser’s sole liability and will be subject to the terms and conditions of the protocol and the Ethereum network. As CTY Tokens are issued under a smart contract, the Company is not obliged to reimburse or compensate in any way the Purchaser whose CTY tokens have not been issued by the smart contract for any reason.

    Once issued, the tokens may be assigned or transferred to third parties by the Purchaser, in whole or in part, at their sole discretion, in return for payment or free of charge. However, the Purchaser shall be solely and fully liable for the conditions and consequences of such an assignment or transfer of the tokens in their possession. In particular, given that the Company will have no control over such transactions, the Purchaser may not claim against the Company for any loss of its CTY tokens due to any error of any kind that may occur during the transfer.

    The Company’s cofounders warrant that they will not purchase CTY Tokens in their own ICO or from any third party, or acquire CTY Tokens in any manner, during the period of the ICO.

    Article 6 - Limitations of Use

    Prior to any contribution, the Purchaser acknowledges and accepts that CTY tokens do not, under any circumstance, represent any form of investment or financial investment and agrees not to attempt to divert the tokens function for speculative purposes.

    The Purchaser acquires CTY tokens primarily to support the development, testing, deployment and operation of the Project, being aware of all the risks associated with this Project and this ICO as set forth hereinafter.

    The Purchaser also agrees not to use the Connecty Platform, the CTY Tokens and, more generally, any content or service provided to the Purchaser by the Company for any purpose that is unlawful, that does not comply with the objectives and methods set out in the White Paper and/or in this Contract. Under no circumstances may CTY Tokens be used for other services than those offered by the Connecty Platform. The Purchaser shall not use the Platform or CTY Tokens in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair the Platform, CTY Tokens or the website. In particular, the Purchaser agrees not to modify, interfere with, deactivate or saturate, nor to breach the security of or impair data integrity and confidentiality in relation to any service offered by CTY.

    The Company is solely responsible for deciding whether to provide the service to CTY tokens owners, within the technical, legal, economic or other constraints imposed by third parties or by the Company itself on its operations.

    Article 7 – Risks

    The Purchaser understands that CTY Tokens, blockchain technology, Ethereum protocol, Ether and other associated and related technologies are new and untested and outside of the Company‘s exclusive control and adverse changes in the technology, broadly construed, will excuse the Company‘s performance under this Contract.

    Risks inherent to the Project and ICO may be various. The Purchaser acknowledges that he has been warned of the following risks, that he understands and accepts purchasing CTY Tokens in consideration of these risks (which are not exhaustive).

    a) Legal risks

    Blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies and projects financing through cryptocurrencies have been the subject of close scrutiny by various regulatory bodies around the world, including within the European Union and France. This ICO has been structured to comply with EU law applicable at the time of the ICO.

    There is a risk that in some jurisdictions the CTY Tokens might be considered to be a “security”, or other regulated investment now or in the future, or might be considered some other type of regulated instrument. The Company believes, but does not give representations, warranties or guarantees that CTY Tokens are not a security or regulated or regulated investment in all jurisdictions. The Company has diligently, to the best of its knowledge, already prohibited acquiring of CTY Tokens by individuals and entities from jurisdictions, where legal uncertainties regarding obtaining, sale and usage of cryptographic tokens are unreasonable high. Each Purchaser of CTY Tokens shall bear their own legal or financial consequences of CTY Tokens being considered a security or other regulated investment or instrument in their respective jurisdiction.

    Based on the Company’s current belief that the CTY Tokens are not securities or other regulated investment when issued, the Company does not intend to attempt to comply with securities or regulated investment offering laws in any jurisdiction; however, due to the continually changing regulatory environment worldwide, the Company reserves the right to decide to register, obtain license, or otherwise take action to attempt to comply with any new law or regulation relating to the Connecty Platform and the CTY Tokens, which could have a material adverse effect on (i) the Platform ability to conduct the ICO and/or (ii) CTY Token holders ability to use their tokens.

    Given the lack of crypto-currency qualifications in most countries, each Purchaser is strongly advised to carry out a legal and tax analysis concerning the purchase and ownership of CTY Tokens according to his nationality and place of residence.

    b) Risks associated with the ICO documentation

    The White Paper is the only documentation that introduces Connecty ICO and exposes the Project. Such documentation does not comply with any legal requirement as there is no regulation at the time of the ICO. The Purchaser acknowledges and accepts that the White Paper may potentially contain inaccuracies, errors or omissions and express the Company’s opinions and forecasts.

    The ICO documentation has not been subject to prior verification and/or approval from any regulatory bodies such as L’Autorite des Marches Financiers (AMF) in France.

    c) Risks associated with Ethereum

    CTY Tokens are based on the Ethereum protocol. As such, any malfunction, unintended function or unexpected functioning of the Ethereum protocol may cause the CTY Tokens to malfunction or function in an unexpected or unintended manner. Ether, the native Ethereum Protocol account unit may itself lose value in a similar way to CTY Tokens.

    Besides, the Purchaser understands and accepts that an upgrade or split of the Ethereum protocol may occur in the future (hard-fork) and that the Company has no control over it. The Purchaser may no longer be able to use his CTY Tokens and/or they may lose their functionality in full.

    For more information on the Ethereum protocol, please visit the Ethereum website: https://www.ethereum.org

    d) Risks of theft and hacking

    Hackers or criminal groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with the Purchaser’s wallet, the website, the Connecty Platform or the availability of CTY Tokens in several ways including, but not limited to, denial of service attacks, smurfing, Sybil attacks, malware attacks or consensus-based attacks.

    e) Risks of security weaknesses in the website and CTY Tokens source code or any associated software and/or infrastructure

    There is a risk that third parties may intentionally or unintentionally introduce weaknesses or bugs into the source code which will interfer with the use of or causing loss of CTY Tokens.

    f) Risk of mining attacks

    As with other decentralized cryptocurrencies, Ethereum blockchain, which is used for the CTY Tokens, is susceptible to mining attacks, including but not limited to double-spend attacks, majority mining power attacks, “selfish-mining” attacks, and race condition attacks. Any successful attacks present a risk to the CTY Tokens. Despite the efforts of the Company and Ethereum Foundation, the risk of known or novel mining attacks exists.

    g) Risk of low or no liquidity

    Even though there are currently online services available, which enable possibility of exchange of cryptographic tokens between themselves, and also, some of them enable exchange of cryptographic tokens for fiat money, there are no warranties and/or guarantees given that CTY Tokens will be listed or made available for exchange for other cryptographic tokens and/or fiat money, and no guarantees are given whatsoever with the capacity (volume) of such potential exchange. It shall be explicitly cautioned, that such exchange, if any, might be subject to poorly- understood regulatory oversight, and the Company does not give any warranties in regard to any exchange services providers. Purchasers might be exposed to fraud and failure. In any case, the Company will not enable exchange of CTY Tokens for other cryptographic tokens or for fiat currency. Purchaser may not at any given time be able to acquire or dispose of its CTY Tokens due to lack of liquidity.

    h) Risk of loss of value

    Even though CTY Tokens are not financial instruments, they might be awarded certain monetary value by the Purchasers and the markets. The Company gives no warranty in respect of CTY Token value and warns the Purchasers that value of CTY Tokens may fluctuate and that CTY Tokens may also lose their value entirely. There might be different reasons that would cause unfavourable fluctuations of the value of the CTY Tokens.

    i) Risk of uninsured losses

    CTY Tokens are entirely uninsured. At present, there are no public or private insurance agents providing Purchasers with coverage against a loss of CTY Tokens or a loss of value.

    j) Internet transmission risks

    The Purchaser acknowledges that there are risks associated with using the Platform or CTY Tokens including, but not limited to, the failure of hardware, software, and Internet connections. The Purchaser acknowledges and accepts that the Company shall not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays the Purchaser may experience when using the Platform or CTY tokens, howsoever caused.

    k) Insufficient interest in Connecty Platform and CTY Tokens

    There is a possibility that the Platform or CTY Tokens may not be used by a large number of companies, individuals and other organizations, and that there may be limited public interest in the creation and development of distributed applications. Such a lack of interest could have an impact on the development of the Platform and, therefore, on the uses or potential value of CTY Tokens.

    l) Risk of loss of CTY Tokens due to loss of credentials

    The Purchaser can only access his account using the credentials selected by the Purchaser. The Purchaser understands that if his credentials (and in particular his private key) are lost or stolen, CTY Tokens associated with his account will be unrecoverable and permanently lost. It is thus recommended to Purchasers to store their credentials securely in one or more backup locations that are geographically separated from the work location and not to share his credentials with anybody. There is no recovery mechanism for lost keys, so the Company will not be able to help the Purchaser retrieve or reconstruct a private key and/or provide the Purchaser with access to any lost CTY Token.

    m) Non-release, software and technical risks

    Some of the Platform features are currently under development. As a consequence, the Purchaser accepts that the development may not succeed, that the Platform may never be released and operational, even though the Company makes its best efforts to complete such platform, that the Platform may be subject to software and/or technical risks, or that features may never be installed on the Platform.

    n) CTY Tokens and the Platform, as developed, does not meet Purchaser expectations

    The Platform is currently under development and may undergo significant changes prior to its launch (for technical, financial, commercial, marketing, legal or regulatory reasons). As such, Purchaser expectations concerning the Platform or CTY Token may not be met on the launch date.

    o) Speculative participation

    A participation in an ICO is highly speculative. Purchasing the CTY Tokens should be considered only by participants who are able to make a long-term commitment and are aware of the risks factors involved in such ICO. The Purchaser should only purchase the CTY Tokens if they are able to bear the risk of the entire loss of their investment and have no need for immediate liquidity in such purchase.

    p) Risk of non-compliance with privacy regulation

    As of the date of signing of this Contract, all aspects of effects of privacy regulation are not yet clear, and privacy regulation might substantially differ in different jurisdictions across the world. Some envisaged features of the Project might not be by itself compliant with the applicable regulation and will need to be adjusted, modified or omitted.

    q) Unanticipated risks

    Crypto-currencies and cryptographic tokens are a new, untested technology. In addition to the risks stipulated above, there are other risks that the Company cannot foresee. Risks may also occur as unanticipated combinations or as changes in the risks stipulated herein.

    to the extent permitted by law and except for bodily injuries, in no event will the aggregate liability of blue horizon and its affiliates, in contract, for direct damages, exceed the amount received by the purchaser at the date of his contributions AND ACCORDING TO THE VALUE OF CTY TOKENS AT THE DATE OF PURCHASE.

    BESIDES , BLUe horizon shall not be held liable for any of the following:

    (i) Use of Connecty Platform and services or CTY Tokens that are not compliant with this Contract ;

Any successful attacks present a risk to the Platform, including, but not limited to, accurate execution and recording of transactions involving CTY Tokens.

    Hackers or other malicious groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with the Platform or the CTY Tokens in a variety of ways (malware attacks, denial of service attacks, etc.) Besides, because the Platform is based on an open-source software, there is a risk that a third party may intentionally or unintentionally introduce weakness into the core infrastructure of the Platform, which could negatively affect the Platform and the CTY Tokens.
