FORM OF FINAL TERMS

The Final Terms in respect of each Tranche of Certificates will be in the following form, duly completed to reflect the particular terms of the relevant Certificates and their issue. Text in this section appearing in italics does not form part of the form of the Final Terms but denotes directions for completing the Final Terms.

UK MiFIR Product Governance / Target Market

  • Solely for the purposes of the manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Certificates has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Certificates is eligible counterparties, as defined in the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook, and retail and professional clients, as defined in Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 ("UK MiFIR"); and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Certificates to eligible counterparties, retail and professional clients are appropriate, with the exception of Execution only for retail investors. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Certificates (a "distributor") should take into consideration the manufacturer's target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Certificates (by either adopting or refining the manufacturer's target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

The Jersey Financial Services Commission has given, and has not withdrawn, its consent under Article 4 of the Control of Borrowing (Jersey) Order 1958, as amended, to the issue of securities (i.e. the Certificates) by the Issuer.

A copy of this document has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies in accordance with Article 5 of the Companies (General Provisions) (Jersey) Order 2002, and he has given, and has not withdrawn, his consent to its circulation. It must be distinctly understood that, in giving these consents, neither the Registrar of Companies nor the Jersey Financial Services Commission takes any responsibility for the financial soundness of the Issuer or for the correctness of any statements made, or opinions expressed, with regard to it. If you are in any doubt about the contents of this document you should consult your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other financial adviser.

C Key Information on the Securities

C.1 What are the main features of the Securities?

C.1.1 Type, class and ISIN

The Certificates are cryptocurrency linked securities in registered form. The Certificates of each Series will initially be represented by a global registered certificate which will be registered in the name of a nominee for the common depository as nominee for, and deposited with, the common depository for Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg. Individual definitive certificates will only be available in limited circumstances. The ISIN Code of the Certificates is XS2376095068.

C.1.2 Currency, denomination, par value, number of securities issued and duration

The Certificates are denominated in U.S. dollars. The Certificates have a final maturity date of 12/09/2121. As of the date of these Final Terms, there will be 4,369,054 Cryptocurrency linked Certificates in issue. The Certificates are being treated by the Issuer as having a minimum denomination of less than EUR 100,000.

C.1.3 Rights attached to the Securities

Overview

The underlying assets for a Series of Certificates is the specified pool of the relevant Specified Cryptocurrency or Specified Cryptocurrencies relating to that Series of Certificates. The Underlying Cryptoassets will be received from the Authorised Participants in consideration for the issue of Certificates, and will be held on trust by the Custodian from time to time. On any date, the pool of Underlying Cryptoassets held by the Custodian is required to comprise an amount of the relevant Specified Cryptocurrency or Specified Cryptocurrencies no less than the aggregate of the "Per Certificate Entitlement" to such Specified Cryptocurrency or Specified Cryptocurrencies for all outstanding Certificates of such Series (being the per Certificate entitlement to the underlying Specified Cryptocurrency or Specified Cryptocurrencies specified in the Final Terms, which is thereafter reduced by the "Reduction Percentage", being the percentage rate specified in the Final Terms (as amended) by which the initial Per Certificate Entitlement will reduce on a daily basis on the assumption that the daily rate will be the per annum rate divided by 365 and applied accordingly).

Redemption

Each Certificate gives the holder the right to receive the applicable payment (or in certain circumstances, the delivery of an amount of the underlying Specified Cryptocurrency or Specified Cryptocurrencies) on its redemption.

Final Redemption

All Certificates of a given Series that have not been previously redeemed or purchased or cancelled will be redeemed on the date specified in the Final Terms as the Final Maturity Date by payment of the relevant "Cash Amount" in respect of such Certificates (being an amount in the Specified Currency determined by the Administrator equal to the amount of cash received by the Issuer in respect of the sale of the relevant amount of the Underlying Cryptoasset in respect of such Certificates less all expenses, fees and charges incurred or to be incurred by the Issuer in respect of such redemption, subject to a minimum of US$0.01).

Certificateholder Optional Redemption

Where a Certificateholder exercises its option to redeem in accordance with the applicable procedures, the Issuer shall redeem those Certificates by payment of the relevant Cash Amount on the relevant settlement date ("Cash Settlement"), or, if certain conditions are satisfied or at the option of a Certificateholder who is an Authorised Participant, by transfer of the relevant delivery amount of the relevant Underlying Cryptoasset to the Digital Wallet of the Certificate holder or Authorised Participant (as applicable) ("Physical Delivery") and the other criteria for Physical Delivery are fulfilled.

Optional Redemption in Whole

The Issuer may redeem all (but not some only) of the Certificates on certain dates by Physical Settlement or, if the holder is prevented from receiving the relevant Underlying Cryptoasset due to legal or regulatory reasons, by Cash Settlement, provided the Issuer has given not less than 60 days' notice of its intention to redeem all of the Certificates to the trustee, the Certificateholders, other parties to the transaction documents relating to the Programme and any stock exchange on which the Certificates are listed.

Mandatory Redemption

The Issuer may instruct the Execution Agent to sell all of the Secured Property and the Underlying Cryptoassets and apply the


sales proceeds (less all expenses, fees and charges) in accordance with the Payment Priorities and redeem each outstanding Certificate by Physical Settlement or, if the holder is prevented from receiving the relevant Underlying Cryptoasset due to legal or regulatory reasons, by Cash Settlement, in the event of:

i. changes in tax law which may result in withholding to be applied to payments made by the Issuer in respect of the Certificates, the cost of the Issuer complying with regulation or its obligations in respect of the Programme being materially increased; or
ii. if at any time the Administrator determines and notifies the Issuer that the aggregate number of Certificates outstanding on any day after the first anniversary of the issue date of the first Tranche of Certificates is less than 1,000,000.

The Issuer may also, in its absolute discretion, at any time give notice to a Certificateholder that any Certificates held by that Certificateholder are to be redeemed compulsorily by Physical Settlement, or by Cash Settlement (if the holder is prevented from receiving the relevant Underlying Cryptoasset due to legal or regulatory reasons), if the Issuer required the Certificateholder to certify and provide evidence that the Certificateholder is not in breach of any law or regulation or would risk exposing any Transaction Party to a breach of any law or regulation and the Certificateholder did not provide such certification by the date specified in the relevant notice or in the form and executed manner required for evidence satisfactory to the Issuer; or the Certificateholder certified that it is in breach of any law or regulation or would risk exposing any Transaction Party to a breach of any law or regulation; or the Issuer considers (in its sole discretion) that such Certificates are or may be owned or held directly or beneficially by any person in breach of any law or requirement of any country by virtue of which such person is not qualified to own those Certificates; or that the ownership or holding or continued ownership or holding of those Certificates would, in the reasonable opinion of the Issuer, cause a pecuniary or tax disadvantage to the Issuer or any other Certificateholders which it or they might not otherwise have suffered or incurred or that the ownership or holding or continued ownership or holding of those Certificates would, in the reasonable opinion of the Issuer, expose any Transaction Party to a risk of violation of any law or regulation.

Status and Security

The Certificates constitute secured, limited recourse obligations of the Issuer. The Certificates will at all times rank without preference or priority pari passu amongst themselves.

The Certificates of each Series will be secured pursuant to the Security Deed entered into by the Trustee and the Issuer in respect of such Series (each a "Security Deed", and the security created pursuant to the relevant security documents the "Security") in favour of the Trustee for itself and for the other parties listed and entitled to payment in the Payments Priorities (defined below) (the "Secured Creditors"), including, inter alia, the following security:

i. a first fixed charge over all of the Issuer's rights, title and interest in and to the cash account in respect of the Series; and
ii. an assignment by way of security of the Issuer's rights, title and interest in and to each of the Transaction Documents relating to the Programme to the extent that they relate to the Certificates and any sums payable thereunder including the Issuer's rights to any sums held by any other party thereto to meet payments due in respect of the Certificates, but only to the extent that the same relates to the Certificates, but excluding the Issuer's proprietary interest in and to the Underlying Cryptoassets, held on trust by the Custodian for the Issuer; and
iii. a first fixed charge over all of the Issuer's rights, title and interest in and to the Underlying Cryptoassets, held on trust by the Custodian for the Issuer.

Payment Priorities

The claims of the holders of Certificates and the other Secured Creditors in respect of the Certificates of a Series will rank in accordance with the following order of priorities (the "Payment Priorities"):

i. first, in payment or satisfaction of any taxes and statutory fees owing by the Issuer to any tax authority;
ii. second, in payment or satisfaction of the fees, costs, charges, expenses and liabilities properly incurred by and any indemnity payments owed by the Issuer to the trustee or any receiver in preparing and executing the trusts created by the Trust Deed and Security Deed relating the relevant Series (including any amounts representing or otherwise in respect of VAT, the costs of realising any Security and the Trustee's remuneration;
iii. third, in payment or satisfaction pari passu and rateably of all amounts due and unpaid (including any amounts representing or otherwise in respect of VAT) by the Issuer to the Registrar, the Custodian, the Administrator, the Account Bank, the Execution Agent, the ICSD Paying Agent, any other paying agents and the Certificates Settlement Agent in respect of the Certificates;
iv. fourth, in payment or satisfaction pari passu and rateably of all amounts due and unpaid (including any amounts representing or otherwise in respect of VAT) by the Issuer to the Issuer Adviser;
v. fifth, in payment or satisfaction pari passu and rateably of all amounts then due and unpaid (including any amounts representing or otherwise in respect of VAT) in respect of the Certificates to the Certificateholders;
vi. sixth, in payment or satisfaction pari passu and rateably of all other amounts due and unpaid (including any amounts representing or otherwise in respect of VAT) by the Issuer to any other transaction party in respect of the Certificates; and
vii. seventh, in payment of any balance to the Issuer.

Limited Recourse

In respect of any Series of Certificates, the Certificateholders shall have recourse only to the property of the Issuer which is subject to the Security (the "Secured Property") in respect of such Series of Certificates. If the net proceeds of the realisation of the Secured Property are not sufficient to make all payments due in respect of the Certificates and due to each other creditor relating to the Certificates, no other assets of the Issuer will be available to meet such shortfall, the claims of the Certificateholders and any other creditors relating to the Certificates in respect of any such shortfall shall be extinguished. No party will be able to petition for the winding up of the Issuer as a consequence of any such shortfall.

Events of Default


If any of the following events occurs, the Trustee shall, if so directed and may, at its discretion, give notice to the Issuer that the Certificates are, and they shall immediately become, due and payable:

i. the Issuer fails to pay any amounts due in respect of the Certificates or deliver any underlying Cryptoassets due in respect of the Certificates within 5 business days of the due date for payment or delivery, other than as contemplated by the Conditions of the Certificates;

ii. the Issuer defaults in the performance or observance of any of its other obligations under the Certificates or any of the other documents relating to the issue of the Certificates or any of the covenants of the Issuer contained in the Trust Deed between the Issuer, the Trustee and the Issuer Adviser which default is incapable of remedy or, if in the opinion of the Trustee capable of remedy, is not in the opinion of the Trustee remedied within 30 days after notice of such default shall have been given to the Issuer by the Trustee;

iii. an insolvency event occurs in relation to the Issuer; or

iv. it is or will become unlawful for the Issuer to perform or comply with any of its obligations under or in respect of the Certificates or any of the other documents relating to the issue of the Certificates.

Withholding Tax

All payments in respect of Certificates will be made free and clear of withholding taxes of the Issuer's jurisdiction, unless the withholding is required by law. In that event, the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent(s) or any other agent of the Issuer (as the case may be) shall make such payments after such tax deduction and shall account to the relevant authorities for the amount so withheld or deducted. Neither the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent(s) nor any other agent of the Issuer will be obliged to pay any additional amounts to the Certificateholders as a result of any such tax deduction.

Governing law

The Account Bank Agreement will be governed by the laws of the state of New York. The Administration Agreement will be governed by Irish law. All other transaction documents relating to the Programme will be governed by English law.

C.1.4 Rank of the Securities in the Issuer's capital structure upon insolvency
The Certificates of each Series are secured, limited recourse obligations of the Issuer and the Certificates of each Series rank equally amongst themselves. The Issuer's obligations thereunder are secured by the Security.
C.1.5 Restrictions on free transferability of the securities
--- ---
The distribution of the Base Prospectus and the offering or sale of the Certificates in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession the Base Prospectus or any Final Terms comes are required by the Issuer and the Authorised Participants to inform themselves about and to observe any such restrictions. The Certificates have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Subject to certain exceptions, Certificates may not be offered, sold or delivered within the United States or to U.S. persons.
C.2 Where will the Securities be traded?
--- ---
Regulated Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, SIX Swiss Exchange.
C.3 What are the key risks that are specific to the Securities?
--- ---
i. The Certificates of each Series are secured, limited recourse obligations of the Issuer. The ability of the Issuer to meet its obligations under the Certificates will be dependent, where applicable, upon the Custodian, the Administrator, the Account Bank, the Execution Agent, the ICSD Paying Agent, the Certificates Settlement Agent, the Issuer Advisor and any other service providers to the Issuer in respect of the Certificates making the relevant payments and/or deliveries to the Issuer and upon all parties to the Transaction Documents (other than the Issuer) performing their respective obligations thereunder..
ii. The value of the Certificates may fall in value as rapidly as it may rise and investors may not get back the amount invested and risk losing all of their investment. The value of the Certificates may be affected by a number of factors, including changes in the value of the Underlying Cryptoassets and volatility of the price of the relevant Cryptoassets and changes in foreign exchange rates and economic, financial and political events that are difficult to predict.
iii. The past performance of the relevant Cryptocurrency should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of that Cryptocurrency during the term of any Series of Certificates linked to such Cryptocurrency.
iv. The Certificates issued under the Programme will not be guaranteed by any entity and no person other than the Issuer will be obliged to make payments on the Certificates of any Series.
v. There is no assurance that the arrangements of the Issuer with the Custodian fully protect from loss of assets. Furthermore, the security protocols of the Custodian may introduce friction and delays to accessing assets, which means that in some instances assets may not be accessible and their value may not be realisable immediately, which may result in a loss in cases where the prices of the relevant cryptocurrencies move adversely. The jurisdiction or geography in which private keys are stored by the custodian firm, in case they are stored physically or on paper, may also affect the ability to withdraw assets in instances where regulation changes.
vi. Use of a custodian may result in the Issuer not being able to access the Underlying Cryptoassets for a period of time (or possibly indefinitely) should the custodian enter into an insolvency procedure or experience any kind of systematic failure relating to technology, process or people. In addition, the Custody Agreement only requires the Custodian to meet a certain standard of care in the provision of its services, and also contains certain limitations on the liability of the Custodian which may serve to limit the recourse of the Issuer against the Custodian in circumstances where the Issuer suffers a loss as a result of any failure relating to the Custodian.
vii. The Certificateholders may lose all, or part, of their cryptocurrency as a result of fraud, hacking or theft from their digital wallet, accident (such as losing the key or password to a digital wallet), or similar. The Certificateholder is entirely responsible for the secure storage of the private key of their digital wallet and on choosing the correct compatible digital

wallet.

viii. The level of transaction fees required to maximise the chances of prompt transfer instruction processing, as well as the actual timing of any transaction is therefore unpredictable and Certificateholders might receive the Delivery Amount or the Cash Amount (as the case may be) later than anticipated, or in extreme cases, not receive at all.

ix. In certain circumstances, an early redemption of the Certificates may be imposed on investors which may result in the Certificates being redeemed earlier than desired.

x. The Execution Agent may not be able to sell the relevant Underlying Cryptoassets with regard to achieving the Reference Price which may result in the Certificateholders receiving less than the Reference Price, and the Execution Agent will have no other liability to pay the difference to any of the Issuer, the Trustee or any Certificateholder.

xi. Where the Custodian is unable or fails to effect a transfer of the Underlying Cryptoassets of the Certificates being redeemed to the Certificateholders, it may result in the Certificateholder losing some or all of its investment.

xii. The Certificates aim to track the relevant underlying Cryptoassets as closely as possible; however "tracking error" may occur from time to time such that price at which Certificates of any Series trade on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange or any other exchange to which the Certificates may be admitted may not reflect accurately the price of the underlying Cryptoassets represented by such Series of Certificates.

D Key Information on the Offer of Securities to the Public and the Admission to Trading on a Regulated Market
D.1 Under which conditions and timetable can I invest in this security?
The Issuer may from time to time issue Series of Certificates under the Programme. Only an authorised participant may subscribe for the Certificates. The issue price of the Certificates of a Series will be determined by the Issuer and the relevant authorised participants at the time of issue in accordance with prevailing market conditions and will be specified in the relevant Final Terms.
Offers and sales of the Certificates to an investor by an authorised participant will be made in accordance with any terms and other arrangements in place between such authorised participant and such investor including as to price, allocations and settlement arrangements. Neither the Issuer nor the Issuer Advisor will be a party to any such arrangements with investors and, accordingly, the Base Prospectus and any Final Terms may not contain such information and, in such case, an investor must obtain such information from the relevant authorised participant. Investors should however note the following:
Amount of the offer: The number of Certificates subject to the offer will be determined on the basis of the demand for the Certificates and prevailing market conditions and be published, provided that the aggregate number of all Certificates of any and all Series outstanding from time to time shall not in any event exceed 1,000,000,000 (the “Programme Limit”).
Offer Price: The offer price per Certificate will be equal to the Issue Price specified in the Final Terms, subject to any applicable fees and commissions of the person offering such Certificate.
In connection with the redemption of any Certificate at the option of a Certificateholder, a redemption notice fee of up to US$500.00 will be payable by the relevant Certificateholder.
The Cash Amount payable or the delivery amount deliverable, as applicable, in respect of any redemption is calculated net of all expenses, fees and charges incurred or to be incurred in connection therewith.
From time to time, in respect of Certificates of any particular Series, a portion of the underlying Cryptoassets equal to the aggregate of the daily amounts by which the Per Certificate Entitlement to such underlying Cryptoassets has been reduced by the Reduction Percentage over the relevant period will be withdrawn from the relevant Depositary Wallet and sold by the Execution Agent on behalf of the Issuer and the proceeds thereof, in the normal course, paid to the Issuer Adviser in consideration for its services as Issuer Adviser and also its agreement to pay the fees and expenses due to the other service providers in connection with the Programme (but not including any indemnities granted in favour of the other service providers).
D.2 Why has the prospectus been produced?
