Terms of Service - The Currency

1. ABOUT US

We are Heni Tech LLC (collectively referred to as "Heni" "we" "our" or "us"), a limited liability company registered in Delaware under company number 5889663. Our registered office is at 251 Little Falls Drive, Wilmington, DE 19808, United States.

You can contact us here.

2. OUR WEBSITE AND THESE TERMS

The Heni NFT website ("Website") is a website which enables the purchase of non-fungible tokens ("NFTs") that will be generated through smart contracts, and recorded on the Palm blockchain.

This Terms of Service is a binding agreement that governs your access to and use of the Website, including without limitation, the purchase of the NFTs offered through the Website, your use of the software and services provided in connection with such NFTs, and any additional digital or physical offerings that may be made available by us in connection with such NFTs (collectively, the "Service").

Please refer to our Privacy Policy for information about how we collect, use and share information about you.

CHECK RESTRICTIONS ON PURCHASE: In some countries, and for certain people or entities, there may be restrictions on the purchase of NFTs under applicable export control and sanctions laws and regulations or restrictions on the use of our Service, and therefore the use of our Service may be limited or restricted. See clause 14 for details.

3. 'THE CURRENCY' NFT SERIES AND ARTWORKS

Damien Hirst has created 10,000 hand painted physical artworks, each of which has a unique number and title (each, an "Artwork"). As part of the sale of NFTs covered by this Terms of Service, one NFT will be generated for these Artworks and will be associated with that specific Artwork (each, a "Hirst NFT").

Each Hirst NFT will be generated through smart contracts and recorded on the Palm blockchain, and will be associated with a digital copy of the Artwork with which it is associated ("Digital Artwork"). That Digital Artwork will be stored off-chain.

This Terms of Service details how you can purchase, hold or redeem a Hirst NFT and/or the Artwork.

4. HOW TO BUY NFTS

Wallets

4.1. In order to purchase a Hirst NFT through our Website, you will need to install a browser extension called MetaMask. MetaMask is a non-custodial digital wallet and service provider that allows you to purchase, store and engage in transactions using cryptocurrency. Before you apply to purchase a Hirst NFT as described below, we will ask you to download MetaMask and to connect and unlock your electronic wallet through your account with MetaMask. You will not be able to purchase a Hirst NFT from us without completing this process.

4.2. If you lose access to your MetaMask digital wallet (for example, you lose the physical device on which your wallet is stored and/or the password or seed phase that is required to restore the wallet) then you will not be able to access your Hirst NFT.

Application to Buy an NFT

4.3. The Hirst NFTs are available for purchase only through our application process and only during the application period that we post on our Website or otherwise communicate to you ("Application Period"). During the Application Period, you may apply to purchase a Hirst NFT and specify the number of Hirst NFTs you wish to purchase on our Website. Once the Application Period has expired, we will inform applicants who we have selected as eligible to purchase a Hirst NFT, and the number of Hirst NFTs they may purchase. You acknowledge and agree that you may not be selected to purchase a Hirst NFT and if you are selected, the number of Hirst NFTs you are permitted to purchase may be different from the number you applied to purchase. Decisions about who may purchase a Hirst NFT and the number that may be purchased will be made by us in our sole discretion. You acknowledge and agree that we are not under any obligation to disclose our selection process or criteria.

4.4. You are required to purchase the full number of Hirst NFTs that we allocate to you (which will not be more than the number you applied for). You cannot buy less than the number of Hirst NFTs that we allocate to you, although you have the option to withdraw your application completely if you choose (e.g., if you request 5 Hirst NFTs but are only allocated 3, you must buy all 3 Hirst NFTs or none at all).

4.5. We will notify you of the outcome of your application as soon as reasonably practicable. If your application is accepted, we will notify you by the email you provide to us during the Application Period that your application was accepted and specify the number of Hirst NFTs you are eligible to purchase (the "Notification"). You can check the status of your application at any time by logging into your account on our Website.

4.6. If your application is accepted, you may be required to provide certain identification information and documents, including to complete 'Know Your Client' ("KYC") checks before you can complete your purchase of a Hirst NFT. We will notify you by email with instructions related to our KYC process, if applicable. The KYC checks will be carried out by a third-party provider on our behalf and you agree to accept their terms and conditions in order to complete the checks. Such terms and conditions shall govern in the event of a conflict with this Terms of Service. If you are notified by us that you are required to complete our KYC process, you may not complete your purchase of a Hirst NFT until the KYC process is complete. Failure to complete the KYC check in the time we specify or failure to pass the KYC check may result in the rejection of your application, even if we had previously informed you it had been accepted.

4.7. We will notify you with details regarding the total purchase price of your Hirst NFTs and instructions as to how to pay.

4.8. In addition to the initial KYC checks, we may also require you to provide additional information and/or documents at any time, including, but not limited to, the source of funds used for your purchase if we determine we are required to do so (i) in order to comply with any applicable law or regulation (including those laws related to anti-money laundering) and/or (ii) at the request of any competent authority. If additional information and/or documents are required, we may, in our sole discretion, suspend or cancel your transaction until such additional information and/or documents are reviewed by us and accepted as satisfying the requirements of the applicable law. Failure to provide such additional information and/or documents in the time we specify may result in the rejection of your application, even if we had previously informed you it had been accepted. We may also determine that the contents of such additional information and/or documents require us to reject your application.

4.9. You acknowledge and agree that you are acting on your own behalf, and not as a broker, agent, employee or contractor of any other party. You acknowledge and agree that the funds to be used for the purchase of a Hirst NFT do not originate from a person subject to financial sanctions or constitute or represent any person's benefit from criminal conduct and that at least one of the following statements is an accurate representation as to the source of these funds: (i) the source is your own personal income derived from employment, property or asset sales, investments or profit distributions from a business; (ii) the source is a gift or a loan; or (iii) the source is inheritance.

4.10. You must complete your purchase of your Hirst NFT within the time period set forth by us and communicated to you in the Notification ("Hirst NFT Purchase Period").If you do not complete the purchase within the Hirst NFT Purchase Period, you will no longer be eligible to purchase your applied-for NFT, and we have the right to sell that Hirst NFT to another party.

4.11. By initiating the purchase of a Hirst NFT, you agree that you are submitting a binding offer to purchase the Hirst NFT from us. Your order is accepted and confirmed once the purchase is complete and we notify you that the purchase is complete. You acknowledge that your purchase of the Hirst NFT cannot be refunded.

4.12. Once your purchase is complete you will receive the Hirst NFT through your MetaMask wallet within the time period notified to you when we confirm your order. Note that this time period will follow the Hirst NFT Purchase Period.

4.13. Title to the Hirst NFT passes to you once your purchase is complete and then converts to title to the Artwork when the Hirst NFT is redeemed (as defined below) and the Artwork is withdrawn from the Vault (as defined below) in accordance with this Terms of Service. The risk in and responsibility for the Artwork will transfer to you from the time we deliver it to the address provided by you to us.

5. REDEMPTION OF NFT FOR ARTWORK – WITHDRAWAL FROM THE VAULT

Insurance whilst in the Vault

5.1. When you purchase a Hirst NFT, the Artwork associated with the Hirst NFT will remain in our possession. The Artwork will be stored by us in a secure location (the "Vault") in the Vault during the Redemption Period, the then-current owner of the corresponding Hirst NFT can request to receive from us either a substitute Artwork, or a corresponding Hirst NFT, or a payment of two thousand United States Dollars ($2,000). While we will seek to honour your specific request, we may be unable to do so, and may provide you with the alternative option. Our decision will be final, and you agree that the substitute Artwork or corresponding Hirst NFT, or payment we provide will be your sole remedy with respect to the destroyed or damaged Artwork. You acknowledge that the Hirst NFT associated with the damaged or destroyed work must be sent to us before any payment will be made or substitute Artwork or corresponding Hirst NFT will be given.

Redemption Period

5.2. The owner of a Hirst NFT can redeem the Hirst NFT and withdraw the corresponding Artwork from the Vault during a fixed time period ending at 3pm British Summer Time, 27th July 2022 ("Redemption Period"). Your Hirst NFT must be redeemed and burned before the corresponding Artwork can be withdrawn during the Redemption Period. We will provide you with instructions on how your Hirst NFT must be burned. Failure to burn your Hirst NFT in accordance with our instructions may mean that you cannot withdraw the corresponding Artwork nor reclaim your burned Hirst NFT.

5.3. You will be able to redeem and burn your Hirst NFT and request withdrawal of the corresponding Artwork from the Vault on any date during the Redemption Period. All Artwork must be withdrawn from the Vault during the Redemption Period. At the end of the Redemption Period, any Artwork that has not been withdrawn from the Vault will be destroyed.

5.4. We will not be responsible or liable to you or any other party for errors or failures to execute any redemption, including, without limitation, errors or failures caused by: (i) your failure to follow our redemption instructions; (ii) any incorrect information submitted by you during the redemption process (iii) any loss of connection to our Website or Service unless caused by our gross negligence; (iv) a failure of any software or device used by you as part of the redemption process; or (v) any other failure to execute your redemption request or for errors or omissions in connection with this activity unless caused by our gross negligence.

How to Withdraw an Artwork from the Vault

5.5. Before you redeem and burn your Hirst NFT, you will be given the option to collect the corresponding Artwork in person from the Vault or to have it shipped to you.

5.6. If you choose to collect an Artwork in person, we will require you to verify your identity and address before the Artwork can be withdrawn from the Vault. Before you burn your Hirst NFT, you will be required to submit personal information to us (including your name and address). When you collect the corresponding Artwork, you will need to provide proof of identity and address that matches the details you provided during the redemption process. If you do not provide such documents, for example, if you bring a document with an incorrect address, we will not allow you to withdraw an Artwork from the Vault unless and until such documents are provided to our satisfaction.

5.7. It is your responsibility to make sure that you input the correct information during the redemption process. Any errors cannot be corrected after the Hirst NFT has been burned. Since transactions are irreversible on the blockchain, your Hirst NFT will be irretrievable, and you will not be able to withdraw the corresponding Artwork from the Vault.

5.8. If you choose to have an Artwork shipped when it is withdrawn from the Vault, it will be shipped to you (or to a person chosen by you to take possession) by our chosen carrier. The Artwork will be insured during transit at the value of two thousand United States Dollars ($2,000). If the Artwork is destroyed or damaged or lost during transit, you agree that your sole remedy will be payment of up to two thousand United States Dollars ($2,000).

5.9. If you choose to have an Artwork shipped, you agree to pay all costs and import duties and taxes payable to ship the Artwork to the address designated by you. See clause 9 for details.

5.10. If you lose access to the Hirst NFT you own (including, but not limited to, circumstances where access to the digital wallet you used to access the Hirst NFT has been lost), you will lose all rights to the corresponding Artwork and will not be able to withdraw it from the Vault.

6. SECONDARY MARKETPLACES AND THIRD-PARTY SITES

6.1. You are permitted to sell, trade, or distribute your Hirst NFT on any secondary marketplaces, platforms or exchanges operated by third parties that support Hirst NFTs ("Secondary Marketplaces"). Note that Hirst NFTs may not be compatible with all Secondary Marketplaces, and we make no guarantee about the availability or functionality of any Secondary Marketplace. Any Secondary Marketplace on which you sell, trade, or distribute your Hirst NFT must include terms of use that limit the acquiror's rights in the Hirst NFT in a manner that is consistent with Sections 8.7 and 8.8.

6.2. Our Website may include links to other websites or platforms including Secondary Marketplaces (collectively, "Third-Party Sites"). For example, we may include a link to a Secondary Marketplace on which we believe you can trade your Hirst NFT. When you click such link, we may not warn you that you have left our Service and are subject to the terms and conditions and privacy policies of a Third-Party Site. You agree that your use of any Third-Party Site is at your own risk even if we provide links to them from our Website. You may need to comply with any terms and conditions governing the use of such Third-Party Sites and you should review all applicable terms and conditions, and should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any transaction on any Third-Party Site.

6.3. References or links to any Third-Party Site are provided for your convenience and information only. Such links should not be interpreted as endorsements by us of the Third-Party Sites. We have no control over the contents of those Third-Party Sites and disclaim any liability, and accept no responsibility, for the content of any Third-Party Site referred to or accessed through our Service. The fact that we have listed a Secondary Marketplace on our Website is not a guarantee or endorsement that such Secondary Marketplace will support a Hirst NFT or allow all possible transactions with a Hirst NFT.

6.4. You acknowledge and agree that we are not a party to any agreement or transaction where you trade on any Secondary Marketplace a Hirst NFT which was initially purchased via our Service, whether or not a commission or fee is received by us as a consequence of the transaction. We are not liable for any loss incurred by you for fees or other amounts not received by you or from any amounts payable by you in connection with any transaction that takes place on Secondary Marketplaces or on any other Third-Party Sites.

6.5. The Hirst NFTs implement Ethereum Improvement Proposal 2981 (EIP-2981) which would allow Secondary Marketplaces to obtain information about the payment of a royalty requested by us for secondary sales. The information can be read from the smart contract. If a Secondary Marketplace chooses to implement the information, the royalty shall be payable on all transactions of the Hirst NFT on that Secondary Marketplace. The royalty shall be shared between us and Damien Hirst. However, EIP-2981 is still in draft and is under review.

7. LINKS TO OUR WEBSITE

7.1. In connection with the sale of a Hirst NFT, you may link to our Website, provided you do so in a way that is fair, not misleading in any way, legal, and does not damage our reputation or take advantage of it. You must not establish a link in such a way as to suggest any form of association, approval or endorsement on our part where none exists. You must not establish a link to our Website on any website that is not owned by you and you must not frame our Website on any other website. We reserve the right to withdraw the foregoing linking permission without notice.

Hirst NFT and Associated Artwork and Digital Artwork

8.3. You acknowledge that your purchase of a Hirst NFT means you have full ownership rights in the Hirst NFT itself, including the right to store, sell and transfer your Hirst NFT. However, your purchase of a Hirst NFT from us or any third party does not provide any rights, express or implied, in (including, without limitation, any copyrights or other intellectual property rights in and to): (a) the Digital Artwork other than the right to copy and display the Digital Artwork for your own personal, non-commercial use and as set forth in Clause 8.7 and 8.8 or (b) the Artwork other than ownership of that physical piece.

8.4. We are not responsible or liable if the Digital Artwork becomes inaccessible to you for any reason, or for any modifications or changes to the Digital Artwork that someone other than us may make, including the deletion of the Digital Artwork.

8.5. You acknowledge that Digital Artworks can be copied and distributed and that we cannot guarantee that there will be not be multiple copies of a Digital Artwork associated with your Hirst NFT. However, we will not sell more than one Hirst NFT associated with a particular Artwork.

8.9. Upon your sale, transfer or burning of the Hirst NFT or if your ownership of the Hirst NFT is relinquished for any other reason, your rights and interest in the Hirst NFT and Digital Artwork immediately and automatically terminate.

9. PRICE AND PAYMENT

Smart contracts and gas fees

9.1. Transacting on the Palm blockchain, including the purchase and transfer of Hirst NFTs, may require the payment by you of a transaction fee ("Gas Fee") on the Palm blockchain. The amount of the Gas Fee will vary and is determined by the manner of operation of the Palm Blockchain. Gas Fees are paid to miners on the Palm blockchain as a reward for validating transactions and adding them to the blockchain. We do not receive any portion of them, nor do we have any control over the amount of the Gas Fee you may be required to pay when you make a transaction on the Palm blockchain. You acknowledge and agree that: (a) you are responsible to pay the Gas Fee regardless of the amount, (b) that the Gas Fee is not payable to us nor is it refundable under any circumstances, and (c) the price of each Hirst NFT is exclusive of the Gas Fees that you may need to pay.

9.2. You may be able to choose the amount of the Gas Fees to pay but the lower the fee, the longer it may take for the transaction to be confirmed. We suggest using your wallet's recommended Gas Fees. We do not have any control over the timeframe for confirmation of your transaction.

Purchase price and charges

9.3. All prices and charges payable to us are shown in United States Dollars ("USD"). If you pay in a fiat currency other than United States Dollars, the actual amount to be paid in your chosen currency will be determined by the exchange rate used by your bank or credit card company when you are actually charged. We are not responsible for any exchange rate fees charged by your bank or credit card company, and such amounts are not charged by or received by us.

9.4. The purchase price of the Hirst NFT will be the price indicated on the Website. Any taxes on your purchase are your responsibility.

9.5. If you choose to pay in cryptocurrency, please refer to clause 10 below.

Taxes and customs duties

9.6. If you withdraw an Artwork from the Vault, the costs of shipping the Artwork (and any applicable VAT, sales tax, use tax or any other taxes payable to us) will be payable by you and will be calculated once you provide a delivery address. We will notify you with details of these costs and how to pay them before the Artwork is shipped. If you fail or refuse to pay these shipping costs in whole or in part, you will not be able to withdraw the Artwork from the Vault nor reclaim your burned Hirst NFT.

9.7. In addition to the amounts payable to us, you are responsible for paying any taxes, customs duties and fees levied by local customs authorities ("Import Duties and Taxes") which are triggered when the Artwork is shipped to the country you designate. Where Import Duties and Taxes are due, you are solely responsible for paying them. We do not collect and pay Import Duties and Taxes on your behalf. You will need to pay any amounts due directly to the applicable customs authority. We are not able to offer any guidance on Import Duties and Taxes and we recommend that you contact your local customs office for details. Failure to pay the applicable Import Duties and Taxes means you may not be able to receive your Artwork. We will have no liability to you in such event.

10. PAYMENT METHODS

10.1. Payment for the Hirst NFTs may be made by any of the methods specified in this Terms of Service or on our Website. Payment to ship the Artwork when it is withdrawn from the Vault may be made by the methods notified to you when you apply to withdraw the Artwork.

Cryptocurrency payments

10.2. We accept payments in cryptocurrencies. The cryptocurrencies we accept will be displayed on the Website. All cryptocurrency transactions will be handled through a payment gateway used by us and with which you will deal directly. Only cryptocurrency payments we specify as approved will be credited towards a Hirst NFT purchase.

10.3. Before you can pay with cryptocurrency, you will need to ensure your wallet has a sufficient amount of cryptocurrency. When you get to the payment option screen you will be presented with the various ways you can pay. If you choose to pay using cryptocurrency then you will be taken to the payment page of the payment gateway which allows you to select the applicable cryptocurrencies. The purchase price of the Hirst NFT in USD will be converted into the current value of the applicable cryptocurrency at the time your transaction is processed, pursuant to a source determined by us at our sole discretion.

How much cryptocurrency is required

10.4. You must send the exact amount of cryptocurrency specified by us. If you send less or more than that amount, we will issue a refund of the full amount you send, and you will need to repeat the checkout process. We cannot guarantee that the Hirst NFT purchase price will be the same for any repeat payment because the cryptocurrency conversion rate may have changed.

How soon must the payment be made

10.5. Once you choose to pay with cryptocurrency, you must send it within the timeframe displayed by the payment gateway. If you do not send it within this timeframe, the conversion rate may have changed and will need to be refreshed in order to complete the payment.

Confirmation of transactions

10.6. When you make a transaction using cryptocurrency, your transaction will not be recorded on the blockchain until it has been included in a block on the blockchain, at which point the blockchain has one confirmation. Each new block added to the blockchain is another confirmation for your transaction. A specific number of block confirmations is required in order to consider a transaction final. The number of block confirmations required to consider a transaction final will vary depending on the applicable cryptocurrency. We require 6 confirmations for Bitcoin and 35 confirmations for Ether, USDC and DAI.

10.7. The required number of block confirmations must be processed within 5 days from the date on which you make the transaction. We have no control over this, and a failure of your payment to be finalized means you may need to pay again, using the then-current cryptocurrency conversion rate.

Transactions sent to the incorrect wallet address

10.8. You must send the cryptocurrency to the address that we provide to you. Since transactions are irreversible on the blockchain, if you make a mistake and your cryptocurrency is sent to the incorrect address, you will lose the cryptocurrency and the order cannot be accepted. It is your responsibility to make sure that you send the cryptocurrency to the correct address. We are not liable for any failure by you to send the cryptocurrency to the correct address we provide to you.

Conversion rates for refunds

10.9. We reserve the right in exceptional circumstances not to accept payment for a Hirst NFT and to issue a refund. If we have not accepted your payment, and we issue a refund, and you paid in fiat currency, you will be refunded using USD. If you paid in cryptocurrency, your refund will be using USD as the base currency for the purchase price, converted into the applicable cryptocurrency at the current rate at the time we issue the refund (and not at the time when we confirm that a refund will be issued).

10.10. This ensures that the equivalent USD amount you pay at the time of purchase is also returned to you in cryptocurrency. In order to protect both you and us from fluctuations in the cryptocurrency rate, we do not refund at the cryptocurrency rate that existed at the time of purchase. This could mean that you receive more or less cryptocurrency than the amount you paid at the time of the transaction. However, the USD value will still be the same.
