The Redemption Proceeds will be converted into ETH, unless such proceeds cannot be converted due to low liquidity or other impeding market conditions as described in Article III (1)(b)-(c), Article VI (8), Article VII (4).
7) The Redemption Proceeds will be sent by the TaaS Redemption Smart Contract to the Eligible Wallet address which was provided by the Tokenholder to TaaS during the Authorization Procedure and used by the Tokenholder for submitting TAAS Tokens to claim the Redemption proceeds.
8) The Tokenholder may be requested to provide additional information or documents to support the claim for Redemption Proceeds in cases when the amount of TAAS Tokens submitted from a single wallet exceeds the 100,000 TAAS Tokens threshold, or transactions involving such wallet trigger other provisions of TaaS Compliance Policy.
III. TAAS ASSETS
1) Assets of the following types shall be allocable for redemption:
a) Category A Assets (liquid, movable, tradable). This group of assets shall be converted into ETH for further distributions pro rata to the TAAS Tokens submitted to claim the Redemption with the exception of the case specified in Article VI (4)-(5).
b) Category B Assets (movable, low liquidity). In case of unfavourable market conditions (e.g. lack of or low liquidity, lockdown of exchange storages used for certain assets etc.), instead of converting such assets into ETH, such Category B Assets (only applicable for ERC-20 tokens) may be distributed to the Tokenholder in specie, pro rata to the TAAS Tokens submitted to claim the Redemption with the exception of the case specified in Article VI (4)-(5).
c) Category C Assets (immovable/locked/not yet received, in transit, non-liquid). Category C Assets may not be available for conversion/distribution for an indefinite period of time. All TaaS Assets that cannot be converted to ETH or distributed in specie before January 1, 2021, are considered Category C Assets. Treatment of such assets is detailed in Article V, and Article VII.
2) TaaS Assets allocable for redemption shall comprise the proceeds from TaaS Assets Liquidation Event less a fee of two percent (2%), covering the related costs of termination of Service.
IV. TAAS ASSETS LIQUIDATION EVENT
1) TaaS Assets Liquidation Event means that TaaS will sell or otherwise dispose of TaaS Assets except for ETH, and a limited number of ERC-20 tokens, as the case may be, either in a single transaction or a series of transactions, at fair value and as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value, and in the best interest of the Parties.
2) TaaS Assets Liquidation Event shall start promptly after the TaaS Redemption Smart Contract is activated on May 1, 2019, and end at the Closure Date.
3) TaaS Assets Liquidation Event Closure Date is 23:59 UTC December 31, 2020.
V. LIQUIDATION OF TAAS ASSETS BY A CUSTODIAN/ADMINISTRATOR
1) If it is not reasonably possible to sell or otherwise dispose of Category C Assets during the TaaS Assets Liquidation Event, the Category C Assets and all TaaS rights related and obligations related to such assets will be transferred to the Custodian/Administrator chosen by TaaS. The Custodian/Administrator will have a duty to sell or otherwise dispose of the Category C Assets on behalf of the Tokenholder for two years from the date of TaaS Assets Liquidation Event Closure Date.
2) The Custodian/Administrator will be obliged to send the Proceeds from the Category C assets (if any) to the TaaS Redemption Smart Contract that will automatically distribute the proceeds to the Tokenholder pro rata to the amount of TAAS Tokens submitted for Redemption. The Custodian/Administrator will be able to decide on a case-by-case basis, in the best interest of the Tokenholder, to either hold a Category C asset with nil value, dispose of it at market value, redeem it via redemptions in specie, etc.
3) If any Category C asset will not become movable, or unlocked, or liquid and/or received by the Custodian/Administrator within two years after the TaaS Assets Liquidation Event Closure Date, the Custodian/Administrator may value these assets at nil.
4) The Custodian/Administrator’s fee shall constitute a cumulative 2% fee, based on the liquidation value of such Category C asset (or the actual amounts of such assets for redemption in specie).
VI. PROCEEDS FROM THE TAAS ASSETS LIQUIDATION EVENT
1) The Proceeds from the TaaS Assets Liquidation Event are converted into ETH for further redemption to the Tokenholder, unless such proceeds cannot be converted due to low liquidity or other negative market conditions (see Article V. Liquidation of TaaS Assets by a Custodian/Administrator).
2) TaaS shall carry out a conversion of Assets into ETH in a reasonable manner, and to the best interests of the Parties.
3) The final amount of the Proceeds from the TaaS Assets Liquidation Event redeemable to the Tokenholders is derived from the TaaS Assets Liquidation Event minus two (2) percent fee to cover the related costs of termination of Service.
4) If the Tokenholder fails to authorize and/or submit TAAS Tokens to the TaaS Redemption Smart Contract before 00:00 UTC on January 1, 2020, a fee of 1/366 per day will be deducted from the Category A and B Assets allocable for distributions to such portion of TAAS Tokens, for each day of such failure/delay to claim Redemption proceeds.
5) The amount of proceeds allocable for the distribution from the liquidation of Category A and B Assets is determined below:
a) For TAAS Tokens submitted before January 1, 2020: pro rata to the TAAS Token deposits of Authorized Users from the Eligible Wallets.
b) For TAAS Tokens submitted after January 1, 2020:
Where
- Distribution is the amount of TAAS Assets allocable for the distribution to the Tokenholder,
- Proceeds are the total proceeds of TaaS Assets Liquidation Event,
- Deposit is the amount of TAAS Tokens submitted by the Tokenholder to the TaaS Smart Contract,
- Emission is the total circulating supply of TAAS Tokens, equal to 8,146,000.779398 TAAS Tokens,
- Deposit Day is the numeric count of days elapsed in the year 2020 before the TAAS Tokens submission by the Tokenholder, ranging from 1 to 366 (e.g. for January 1, 2020, Deposit Day equals “1”, for February 1, 2020, Deposit Day equals “32” etc.).
c) All the assets (i) deposited to the TAAS Smart Contract during 2020, and (ii) remaining fully or partially undistributed at 23:59 UTC December 31, 2020, as the case may be, shall be distributed after the Closure Date, and pro rata to the TAAS Token deposits of Authorized Users from the Eligible Wallets.
6) TaaS shall not be held responsible for the ETH price after the conversion of Assets into ETH.
7) TaaS may, at its sole discretion, based on the market conditions, distribute the Category B assets, without converting such assets into ETH (distribution in specie).
VII. PROCEEDS FROM LIQUIDATION OF TAAS ASSETS BY A CUSTODIAN/ADMINISTRATOR
1) The final amount of the Proceeds (if any) derived from the Liquidation of TaaS Assets by a Custodian/Administrator (if one is engaged) redeemable to the Tokenholder is derived from the TaaS Assets Liquidation by a Custodian/Administrator minus two (2) percent fee to cover the liquidation costs.
2) The amount of proceeds distributed from the liquidation of Category C Assets by a custodian/Administrator shall be distributed pro rata to the TAAS Token deposits of Authorized Users to the relevant Eligible Wallets.
3) The Custodian/Administrator shall not be held responsible for the ETH price after the conversion of Assets into ETH.
4) The Custodian/Administrator, at its sole discretion, based on the market conditions, may distribute the Category C assets, without converting such assets into ETH (distribution in specie, only applicable for ERC-20 tokens).
VIII. DISTRIBUTION
