The following terms and conditions, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference, including our Privacy Policy (collectively, these “Terms”), govern your access to and use of our services, the purchase of the NFTs, and your use of our Platform.
These Terms incorporate by reference any secondary terms applicable to the specific type of NFT and any particular drop rules applicable thereto, which will also be made available to you at the time you purchase NFTs. Please review all such provisions carefully to understand your obligations and what you’re getting when you purchase the NFTs.

Our Platform is a Global One initiative, made available for the benefit of GlobalOne LLC (“Global One”), a decentralized finance lending platform with a mandate to provide debt or equity to predominantly private sector companies with projects that are relevant to people’s standard of living or address matters of global concern. All companies that receive debt or equity financing from Global One are evaluated against certain environmental, social and governance criteria. Global One also uses its funds to develop the Platform and maintain it.

PURCHASING SUBSCRIBER SPECIFIC TERMS
The following terms apply to users of the Platform who are browsing for or purchasing NFTs (the “Purchasing Subscribers”), and are considered part of Terms of Use. Note that you may be a Purchasing Subscriber, and also be an Artist Subscriber under these Terms, so please be sure to read all of the Artist Subscriber terms below if this applies to you.
NFT Purchases
As a Purchasing Subscriber, you may browse and purchase NFTs made available for sale on the Platform (we may limit the number of NFTs you can purchase in any given drop or during certain periods of time, in our discretion). You will make these purchases using our smart contract, and your digital wallet.
Your Rights
You will obtain a copy of the NFT you purchase.
You may transfer that NFT to others by using the secondary market available on our Platform.
Unless otherwise noted in the terms of purchase when you buy a specific NFT, you obtain a single copy of the NFT only, and you acknowledge and agree that the work on the NFT may not be unique (i.e., there may be other copies of the same work on other NFTs or elsewhere).
For so long as you are the owner of the NFT, you can post a copy of it you obtain hereunder to social media pages that you control, and you can use them as your avatar on such social media pages or otherwise online. You can discuss the NFT on social media pages, and the Internet generally, provided you don’t engage in any illegal activity in doing so and don’t disparage anyone associated with the NFTs or the Company or do so in a libelous or malicious manner. You can display your NFT for personal, non-commercial purposes, anywhere on the public Internet, so long as you do not attempt to create an association between you and the Company, and you don’t attempt to mislead the public as to your relationship with us, or induce people to believe, by act or omission, that you are related to or affiliated with the Company or its affiliates or the Artists who create NFTs for minting on our Platform.
The NFT creator may grant you additional rights, which will be disclosed to you when you purchase such NFTs.
Unless the specific terms of your purchase as disclosed at the time of the purchase say otherwise, you acquire no right to:
• Reproduce the NFT, except as permitted in these Terms;
• Generate additional NFTs (unless the NFT you purchase has functionality to replicate);
• Distribute (except for the sale of the NFT as a whole, individually, if you so wish); in each case, of any NFT, or any portion thereof.
Anyone who acquires the NFT from you is a successor to these Terms, and shall be bound by them. It is the responsibility of the NFT owner to, upon transfer, ensure these Terms are transferred to any subsequent purchaser of the NFT.
ARTIST SUBSCRIBER SPECIFIC TERMS
The following terms apply to users of the Platform when posting your own artwork for sale as NFTs on the Platform (in which case, you are an “Artist Subscriber”), and are considered part of Terms of Use. Note that as an Artist Subscriber, you may also be a Purchasing Subscriber under these terms, so please be sure to read all of the Purchasing Subscriber Terms above as well, if this applies to you.
Your work product may include artistic works such as drawings and paintings, or may include videos, performing arts, or any other type of original works of authorship, including literary, dramatic, musical and artistic works (e.g., poetry, songs, movies, writings, etc.). All such work product shall be referred to herein as “Works” herein.
As an Artist Subscriber, you agree to certain terms set forth in these Artist Subscriber Terms (as well as the general terms) with respect to your artwork posted to the Platform, so please review the following terms very carefully and make sure you agree to them. Your only option, if you don’t agree, is not to use the Platform to post your Works or create NFTs from them or containing any portion of the Works.

Your Obligations
You represent and warrant to us and our affiliates that all Artist NFTs and all content thereon and referenced therein are and will be original work product of yours, that you otherwise have all the rights necessary to grant the rights you grant to the Company and others herein, and that all such work product is non-infringing. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates, and each of their respective employees, officers, directors, shareholders, managers, agents and representatives, from and against any claims arising in connection with a breach or alleged breach of these representations and warranties.
Fees
You agree that the Company will sell the Artist NFTs you create, and retain for itself a portion of the proceeds from such sales, including in connection with any secondary market sales that occur on our Platform. You grant us the right to engage in such sales, and to retain a fee for our services.
You will receive a eighty-five percent (85%) royalty of net profits received by us in connection with the first sale of the Artist NFTs you create and post for sale on the Platform. We will also pay you a royalty of ten percent (10%) of our net profits received from any secondary market sales of your Artist NFTs on our Platform.
Please note that these royalty amounts may be re-calculated based on market forces, and is not set in stone. We reserve the right to modify it at any time with or without notice to you.
Also, please note that if a secondary market sale occurs of your Artist NFT on a platform other than ours, you agree that we do not control that site, and cannot and will not pay you any royalty for such sales (as we do not receive any funds from them). You hold us harmless from any missed revenues you suffer as a result of secondary market sales of your Artist NFTs on other platforms.
You may receive additional benefits for your NFT contributions in our discretion.
Your Rights
Subject to the licenses you grant herein, and any rights you grant the purchaser(s) of your Artist NFT, you own the copyright in your Works. You may grant purchasers of your Artist NFTs certain rights, in your discretion, if such rights are available on the Platform.
You will be credited with authorship of the Works you place on Artist NFTs for sale on our Platform.
You will be informed when your minted NFT is sold to someone else.
You may have the ability to allow the owner of the NFTs you mint with your original Works on them to retain for themselves a percentage of the royalty for sales of your NFT, if that functionality is available to you on the Platform. In each case, our smart contract may allow you to make selections of what royalty you wish to offer to the purchase of the Artist NFT you minted. If any future NFTs are minted based on the original Artist NFT you sold, then all such new NFTs shall be considered Artist NFTs hereunder, and subject to all the terms for your minted NFTs as set forth in these Terms. Any such royalties you decide to share with owners, whether first purchaser or all future owners of the Artist NFTs you mint on the Platform, shall be deducted from your royalty payable hereunder for sale of the Artist NFTs, and not from our share of the proceeds.
Our Rights
You hereby grant us and our affiliates a worldwide, irrevocable, unlimited, transferable, sublicensable, royalty free (except as set forth herein), fully paid up, nonexclusive right and license to use the NFTs and the Works thereon in whole or in part for marketing purposes, to publicly display the Works or parts thereof in art installations or exhibits, and for merchandising; provided, however, that proceeds of merchandising will be shared with you at a rate set forth on our Platform.
