2.1. The Market Maker shall provide the Service to create a perpetual market on vibe(symmio), promote liquidity, price stabilisation, and orderly trading activity of the Token on designated cryptocurrency exchanges and trading platforms, including but not limited to spot markets and perpetual futures markets (“Market”).
2.2. The Market Maker will deploy its proprietary trading system, algorithms, and technical infrastructure in performing this Service.
2.3. The Parties hereby confirm and agree that the Market Maker shall, on a best efforts basis, conduct the Services in a way to achieve and maintain KPIs as specified in detail in the Statement of Work.
2.4. Audit Right. The Client shall have the right to request, upon prior ten (10) days´ written notice, access and review of trading records and P&L statements (“Audit”). For the purpose of the Audit, the Client shall engage a third-party auditor, which shall be mutually agreed between the Parties, subject to confidentiality obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the Client shall bear all the costs related to any such Audit.
2.5. Changes to the Services. The Market Maker reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service or any part thereof with or without notice. The Client agrees that the Market Maker will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Service.
3. Custody of Tokens
3.1. The Client will provide the Market Maker with the Liquidity Tokens and Liquidity Digital Assets listed in the Statement of Work. These assets are to be held in custody by the Market Maker and used only for carrying out the Services under these Terms and shall at the end of the term of these Terms be returned (repaid) to the Client. Liquidity Tokens and Liquidity Digital Assets shall be regarded as the Client’s assets and shall be held in custody and accounted separately from Market Maker’s own assets.
3.2. Statement of Work sets out the details about the amount, duration, and any special conditions related to the Liquidity Tokens and Liquidity Digital Assets.
3.3. Custody Risk Disclaimer. The Market Maker will securely protect the Liquidity Tokens and Liquidity Digital Assets using and implementing standard and security measures, including cold storage and multi-factor authentication. All transactions involving these assets will be made solely to perform the Services under these Terms. The Market Maker will implement commercially reasonable security measures, including the use of hot and cold wallet systems, multisignature wallets, hardware-based key storage, and/or time-locked smart contracts. However, the Client acknowledges and agrees that no custody method—whether involving on-chain wallets, smart contracts, or third-party custody solutions—is entirely free from risk. These risks may include, but are not limited to:
(i) unforeseen technical failures or vulnerabilities inherent to blockchain infrastructure or third-party smart contracts;
(ii) external exploits or network-level incidents beyond the Market Maker’s direct control, including those impacting DEXs, bridges, or custody platforms.
The Market Maker commits to taking all reasonable efforts to recover from any such events and will provide full transparency regarding the nature of the incident and the steps taken to mitigate and remedy any resulting impact.
3.4. To further demonstrate long-term alignment and operational responsibility, the Market Maker commits to allocating ten percent (10%) of all profits (“Insurance Fund”) to an internal Security Fund, seeded with an initial $500,000. This Fund is intended to provide discretionary coverage for extraordinary incidents or losses not otherwise recoverable through regular operations. The Security Fund is managed solely by the Market Maker and does not constitute a legally segregated or guaranteed reserve.
3.5 The Client acknowledges that, in certain market conditions, the Market Maker may need to utilize Tokens or related collateral to meet trading obligations or profit distributions. In such cases, the Market Maker may not always be able to repurchase or return the identical quantity of Tokens originally provided, particularly in the event of significant price movements or unexpected market dynamics. These scenarios are considered long-tail risks inherent to the structure of the Services, and while the Market Maker will use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such risks, no assurance can be given that full Token quantities will always be available for repurchase or return.
4. Repayment and Prepayment of Liquidity Digital Assets
4.1. During the Term, the Market Maker can decide to repay (return) all or any portion of the Liquidity Digital Assets to the Client as set out in the Statement of Work.
4.2. Market Maker can at any time prior to the Term decide, at its sole discretion, to repay all or any portion of the Liquidity Digital Assets.
4.3. The Client can terminate and request the repayment (return) of the Liquidity Digital Assets at any time upon notice to the Marker Maker in accordance with Clause 13, whereas the repayment (return) of such Liquidity Digital Assets is set out in Clause 14.
5. Profit
5.1. For the purposes of these Terms, Profits shall be classified into two categories:
a) Operational Revenues (“Operational Profits”): revenues generated from spreads, fees, funding payments, borrowing costs paid by traders, and liquidation fees. These revenues are subject to distribution in accordance with Clause 5.3 (Buybacks) and Schedule 1.
b) Opportunistic Revenues (“Opportunistic Profits”): revenues that may arise from maintenance margin (CVA), realized or unrealized trading results, or other market-making activities. Opportunistic Revenues are applied toward Open Interest Rebalancing (“OI Rebalancing”), meaning the stabilization of liquidity and market operations. For the avoidance of doubt, such revenues are treated as part of the liquidity available within the Solver, similar to Client deposits. Accordingly, they are not subject to regular distribution during the Term but may be made available for partial withdrawal upon Client request or for full withdrawal in connection with market delisting or termination, subject to Clause 14.
5.2. The Client acknowledges that any potential profits associated with passively holding the Tokens (e.g., staking rewards, price appreciation, or other use cases) may not be realized while the Tokens are held or actively utilized by the Market Maker. Such missed opportunities shall not be considered trading losses and shall not entitle the Client to any form of compensation.
5.3. Buybacks. If, upon mutual agreement during the term of these Terms the Market Maker will utilize and use a part of the Profit for the buybacks of Tokens, the Client accepts any risks related to subsequent volatility or Token price appreciation or depreciation and understands and agrees that any such unrealized potential opportunity profit (due to either buying and holding of Tokens or not buying and holding of Tokens) cannot be regarded as a trading loss and that it shall not entitle the Client to any form of compensation.
5.4. The Profit shall be divided between the Market Maker and the Client as set up in the Statement of Work.
5.5. Profit distribution to the Client shall be made to a wallet designated by the Client. The Market Maker may retain its share in the trading account or transfer it to a separate wallet. Each distribution will be accompanied by a brief report from Market Maker outlining the total profit for the period and the calculation of each Party’s share (“Report”).
5.6. During the initial phase, for the period of 2-4 months (depending on the development timeline of the creation of an automated distribution system, as it might be described in more detail in Schedule 1), Profit distributions shall be made on a monthly basis, provided that the accumulated Client’s share of the Profits to be distributed (as per profit split arrangement in accordance with this Agreement) for that month reach at least USD 17,500 (seventeen thousand five hundred USD) (“Accumulated Share”). In the event that the Accumulated Share in a given month does not reach USD 17,500 (seventeen thousand five hundred USD), the Profit distribution shall be deferred and paid out to the Client in the month in which the Accumulated Share reaches or exceeds USD 17,500 (seventeen thousand five hundred USD). Following the deployment of an automated profit distribution dashboard, Clients will have the ability to claim profits on a daily basis (and, for avoidance of any doubt, without any restriction with regard to the amount of accumulated profits which can be distributed), subject to technical availability and operational readiness of the dashboard. If the Client is not satisfied about the distribution frequency or achieved profits, the market can be closed upon Client’s request and termination of this Agreement, and the Liquidity Digital Assets shall be returned to the Client, upon transition protocol as defined in Clause 14.
5.7. In relation to each transfer of Tokens from one Party to the other Party under these Terms, each Party shall be responsible for bearing:
a) any fees for a transfer of Tokens initiated by that Party; and
b) any additional costs required to rectify any error made by that Party which affects the transactions and/or performance obligations contemplated by these Terms.
